Strange Worlds-Chapter 230: Decision

Some people would think that she was cheating and this way of fighting should be illegal.

But Aya knew very well that the world was indeed like this.

These magic warriors and mages would not care about their images and would use all kinds of means available for them to survive. And Lisa’s family main inheritance magic was in this area, so their family members usually dressed very eccentricly.

For the people who used to associate with them, they would get used to their strange taste.

But for their enemies or even these magic beasts, they would feel their eyes hurt because of the various styles from the Felix Family.

And Lisa’s choice was in the direction of charms.

So she always dressed in a way that highlighted her charms and made many people turn their heads when they saw her.

"Alright, I’m not here to joke with you." Lisa shook her head with a smile and then turned to look at Silas. "I’m here under the order of the Headmaster. He’s asking whether your students are going to participate in the yearly magic contest in the academy."

Yearly Magic Contest?

Aya’s eyes flickered when she heard this.

When the students were still in the first to the sixth year, they were basically still very weak and hadn’t learned many magics that could be used. There was basically no point in making any contests and they would rather use the basic examination.

That ghost examination back then was an exception.

But starting from their seventh year above, there would be a magic contest for all students and the early graduate students under 18 years old but above 12 years old.

Last year, Silas’s students were barely of age and there was no hurry to join in this kind of contest. But considering that they would not be asked to do any long distance mission, the headmaster felt that Silas’s students could also participate this year.

There were still a few more months before the end of the year.

The contest would only start at the end of the year, but the participants had to be confirmed first to make sure they arranged a reasonable schedule.

"Ah, that magic contest." Nathan nodded when he heard that and then grinned. "Aren’t you still within the age range, Silas?"

Silas was 16 years old and if he wanted to, he could also participate in that magic contest. But for Silas himself, he had no interest to participate in such a contest that didn’t have much use aside from showing off their trump cards to others cheaply.

Because of this, he had never participated.

"Yes, but I have no intention to participate," Silas replied and then said, "I’ll tell my students about this. Thank you, Senior Lisa."

"No problem." Lisa laughed and then turned to look at Nathan. "If only you have students, you can compete with my students and the others."

"Wait, they’re all joining?" Nathan asked in surprise.

"Yes."

"Wow, it’ll be very lively." Nathan laughed.

"The interest to take missions outside had dropped significantly since yesterday," Lisa replied. "My own students are also unwilling to take missions outside and some of them want to join this contest."

When she came to register, the headmaster asked her to ask Silas.

This was because Silas’s students were unlikely to go out and do missions again after the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was reprimanded harshly. And if these four big families’ children participated, the Headmaster felt that this year’s contest would be very exciting.

"Tsk, so the proud Fourth Head’s son’s students will also join in?" Nathan asked with a frown.

"Yes, his students will come."

"Ugh, it’ll be more troublesome than fun."

...

Silas and Aya both listened from the side without interrupting. The two of them knew that their position was still lower than these two.

Moreover...

Knowing that there were actually many students who wanted to come was still surprising. Not all of Nathan’s friends became teachers but those who did basically let their students register.

After talking with Lisa for some time, Nathan basically had the gist of these people who came to participate in the competition. And Lisa had no time to chat, so she also left.

And Nathan turned to look at Silas. "Silas, your students have to win!"

Silas: "..."

He looked at Nathan speechlessly.

Does this really need to be told to him? Besides, he had to ask his students whether they wanted to participate or not first. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

"Aya, do you want to..."

"Brother Silas, I’m not old enough," Aya cut Silas’s words before he could ask this question. Even if she was already of age, Aya had no interest in participating in this stupid competition. This competition will only make her trump card visible in front of other students.

And Aya would not want that.

She had been hiding her skills for such a long time only to have it all revealed all of the sudden?

There might be some unwanted things midway and Aya was not taking any risks. She had been using her skills in the various spars against Silas before. But it was still limited to physical skills and the magic spells were limited.

But if she has to fight against others....

Aya couldn’t guarantee that she would not use other skills that she hadn’t shown before. There were a lot of magic spells in the first place and sometimes, changing one or two words can make the spell a bit different.

"Oh right, you’re not old enough...." Silas scratched the back of his head and laughed awkwardly. He had completely forgotten that Aya is younger than his other disciples and thought tha they were all of the same age.

He turned to look at Nathan and shrugged his shoulders, meaning he couldn’t do anything about it.

Nathan: "..."

He had completely forgotten that not all of the students in Silas’ team were of the same age.

Thinking about how the two of them sparred just now, Nathan felt it was a pity that Aya couldn’t participate in that competition. If she could participate, she might be able to defeat the other people who come easily with her own physical strength’s magic.

"I’ll talk with my other disciples later," Silas added.

He was sure that Evan and Leon would be more interested to participate. Yun and Dean might not be that interested but he would have to ask them first.

"Alright." Nathan could only agree helplessly. There was basically nothing that he could do either way.

The decision to participate or not were all in the hands of Silas’s students.

For some reasons, Nathan also wanted to have students who could compete. But thinking about how troublesome it would be after becoming a teacher, Nathan put down these thoughts.

"Can I tell Evan about this first, Brother Silas?" Aya asked.

She would go back to the White Family Residence and see Evan, so it would definitely be faster if she told him about this matter first.

"Sure." Silas nodded.

"Ok."

"Now that the training is over, Nathan will treat you," Silas said while pointing at Nathan.

Nathan’s body froze. His task was to watch over Aya quietly and protect her when it was necessary. When his brother gave him this task, there was no words about him treating Aya and Silas to a meal.

Also, who would dare to treat Aya to a meal?

Almost everyone knew that the higher one’s physical strength was, the more food they needed to consume to maintain their physical strength. The Red Family has long been known to be a big eater and they all eat a lot for their own training.

And Aya?

It was not a secret that her physical strength was really strong, which meant that her appetite was really big. There were already many people who saw the three boys suffered from treating Aya because she simply ate too much.

"This... I don’t bring enough money..."

Silas arched his eyebrows. "As the young master of the Green Family, how come you don’t have enough money? Your patriarch didn’t wrong you, right?"

"No, he didn’t." Nathan felt a bit irritable.

He was planning to save more money in case it was necessary for him to use it in the future. If he was only treating SIlas, Nathan felt that his wallet could still handle it.

But Aya...

Please, he couldn’t stand it.

"How about if we just go out and hunt some magic beasts?" Nathan offered weakly.

"No, I have eaten so many magic beasts’ meat in the past," Aya rejected the notion almost immediately. If there was a chance to be treated by others in a restaurant, how could she choose to eat in the wilderness and cook them by herself.

Not mentioning the fact that the food she cooked was terrible, Aya loved to cheat meal money from her friends the most~.

"This..."

"Come on, we can pay a visit to Ruby Family’s restaurants. Their magics are very suitable for farming, so their restaurants are usually full of vegetables and also very healthy," Silas suggested.

The Ruby Family was one of the smaller families in Wansu City. Their magic was technically an earth element but the color was closer to red. If their control was not good, the texture would be closer to mud and it was said that the earth they controlled was the best for farming.

So the people from the Ruby Family often took jobs that required them in the field to help with farming.

But this kind of job was usually low paying and in order to make sure their family members were not lacking in money, the Ruby Family also opened a few restaurants specialized in various vegetable dishes.

They were quite delicious and not too expensive, so these restaurants were quite popular.
