Nathan and Selena were visiting all kinds of shops in the city. This was the first time they had a break since there was just one problem after another coming their way.
They had tried a couple of new clothes, considering money wasn’t an issue for them anymore.
Still, the most important thing would be testing the swimsuit. Nathan thought there would be no such thing, considering the civilization of the world. Even if there was one, they would be plain and dull.
He was wrong. The familiars also brought the cultures to this world. While the world retained most of their civilization and culture, there were some changes.
‘Hooray, long live all those familiars.’ Nathan praised them inwardly.
This peaceful day didn’t last long.
The student council ended up facing another problem. And this time, it was a big problem.
As the rumor about Axel being the traitor spread to the academy, Flora’s reputation had grown tremendously. It could be said that she was the one holding the absolute authority in this academy.
That was the exact reason she shouldn’t have messed up.
All of a sudden, she received a concerning report, which caused her heart to sink.
“Not good. Axel… that traitor is gone!”
“What?!”
Flora dropped her jaw to the ground, not believing it would happen. Did someone help him?
“What do you mean, gone?” Flora asked.
“He’s gone. He has disappeared from his cell.”
“What? He is supposed to be in his cell. How can he even go out? The guards should be there to make sure no one can approach him.”
“I don’t know, but you have to check it!”
Flora and the others went to the prison to check on him, but he was truly gone. There was no sign of fighting.
“This is not good.” Flora’s face turned pale.
Noelle’s expression turned solemn. “If this matter is known, the people will become panicked once again.”
“Yes. We have to find him right now.”
The student council ended up springing into action once again. All of them thought they had gotten into another big problem. Only Selena remained calm, as if everything had gone according to Nathan’s plan.
Because of what happened previously, the principal and the vice principal had to talk.
“Vivian. I know you like your student so much, but please make sure to remember that there are other students in the academy. If you end up releasing your power, they might even die or become too scared to even continue their lives as a summoner. If I do the same thing, it’ll cause much more damage.” The principal sighed.
“I know.” Vivian nodded. “And I apologize for that. I have never thought that he would be daring enough to gamble with his life.”
“He is truly a little devil.”
Vivian smiled wryly. “He is certainly beyond my imagination.”
“Who will interrogate him? Are you going to do it or should I?”
“I will use my illusion first. We don’t know what kind of opponent we’re dealing with, so I hope the illusion is enough. But if it’s not enough, I hope your curses can do something about it.”
The principal agreed. “Alright. Let’s go with your—!”
Before he finished his words, Flora slammed open the door.
“Vice Principal!” Flora once again entered the room, only to notice the principal also in the room. “Eh? Principal is here too…”
The principal smiled. “Don’t mind me.”
“What’s wrong?” Vivian asked while crossing her arms.
“Please calm down with what I’m about to tell you, alright? Axel is gone. I don’t know how, but he is completely gone. However, don’t worry, I will make sure that your student will be fine.”
When Vivian heard it, she almost facepalmed. It took her an instant to know what was going on.
Vivian looked up, thinking, ‘This damned disciple of mine. I guess he’s sending it to them to interrogate him. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
‘Now that the rumor about Axel being locked behind the bar has been spread, it won’t matter if they spread the rumor about him being executed silently in respect for all the achievements during his time in the student council.
‘This way, the student council or Flora doesn’t have to take the blame. And no one really questions it because the chaos has disappeared.
‘And by giving Axel to them, Nathan will be more trusted in their organization. No, should I say this is his original intention?
‘Not only does he get Flora’s favor, but he also receives Evelyn’s trust. As usual, he really doesn’t lose out on anything.’
The principal seemed to have noticed what was going on from Vivian’s expression, so he remained silent.
Vivian waved her hand. “Alright. For now, just spread the information about you executing Axel silently. Manipulate the information within the academy. To make it more believable, I will reveal some information about the organization. This should be enough to let people know that the interrogation is successful.
“Just make sure the atmosphere within the academy remains stable.” Stay updated with freewebnovel
“That’s…” Flora looked down, contemplating. It seemed she had no other choice. This was the best way to handle it. “I understand.”
As soon as Flora left, the principal asked, “Your disciple again?”
“Yep.” Vivian nodded.
“He is indeed clever, but you should know that it will not be easy to find out their location.”
“I know. I will ask him about the information and share it with you. We still have to explain it to the Azilia Kingdom and the Holy Kingdom after all.”
“I won’t interfere with the problem for now. But I hope your student doesn’t do things he’s not supposed to do.” The principal sighed.
“I’ll remind him about that.”
“Alright then, I will take my leave and choose to believe in your student for now. He has an immense talent, but I hope he doesn’t become overconfident.” The principal stood up. “Well, I have to teach my students as well. If this continues, she can’t keep up with him.”
“I’m counting on you.” Vivian smiled wryly.
…
As Vivian expected, Nathan caused everything.
A crack appeared inside a room as Evelyn and Nathan walked outside the void carrying Axel.
“Time for interrogation.” Nathan smiled.
