Chapter 187  There are times when even the Prodigies give birth to less fortunate.

"Vaan Astra Vesta and Elara Flameheart,

The two of you are summoned to the Disciplinary Hall."

As the Magic Combat class ended, Vaan and Elara, who were about to leave and attend their last class of the day, were stopped by the same professor who had taken those swordsmen to the Disciplinary Hall a few hours ago.

"…"

All the students in class were surprised, they thought the matter was settled down, but to think the Professor would return like this…

"But Professor, wasn't it those swordsmen who walked into our class to cause trouble? Why are they being summoned when it was not their mistake?"

Vilaya tried to stand up for Vaan and Elara, the professor, however, shook his head and,

"I have no control over this matter anymore, since a Professor from the Sword Division is there as well, our level of authority is clashing with each other, so complete control has been given to the officers of the Disciplinary Hall and they want Vaan and Elara to be present.

"Are they… appealing against our claims?" Vilaya questioned with a grave look on her face.

The Professor nodded his head, a grave look appearing on his face as well.

Vaan and Elara were fairly new to all of this, so they couldn't understand it as well as the others, the rest of the mages, however, could tell where this was going and they did not like the direction the things were proceeding.

"Is it going to be another battle?"

Suddenly, one of the old students couldn't hold himself back any longer and questioned.

"The chances of that happening are indeed high…"

The Professor nodded.

"But why? It was obviously those swordsmen who were in the wrong!"

Vilaya shouted.

This was clearly unfair.

"…"

The Professor didn't say anything.

"Uhh… can you people tell us what's going on? It feels weird to see you react like that when I have no clue what you are talking about. It feels like I am watching a movie without watching the first part of the story."

Vaan spoke up and although Elara didn't say anything, from her expression, she seemed confused as well.

"…" The Professor stared at Vaan and Elara for a while.

"Just come with me. You will understand everything once we reach there."

"Sure."

Vaan shrugged.

From what he heard, all of this was leading to a battle.

If that was the case, then he didn't mind that at all.

After all, this was the whole reason he came to the Academy in the first place.

To bully the students here.

Seeing his confidence, the Professor stared at him for a while, then, without saying anything, he turned around, expecting Vaan and Elara to follow him.

The two of them did as he expected, he took them to the Disciplinary Hall, all the way, he did not utter even a single word, this made Elara panic. Vaan, on the other hand, used this chance to gently hold her hand and smile at her.

"Don't worry, I am here."

He spoke in a gentle tone.

Elara nodded, tightly holding onto Vaan's hand. For some reason, Vaan's words always seemed to calm her down.

The professor who was leading them noticed how the two had entered a completely different world, he wanted to say something, however, he allowed the two to enjoy the moment and,

"They will try to intimidate you, do not give in."

He spoke.

"Yes, Professor."

Vaan replied confidently.

"…"

The Professor momentarily paused.

Honestly, if it was any other student, he would have thought that he was simply maintaining a strong front, this man, however, was different.

He was the same person who was manipulating him using his words just a few hours ago.

Vaan was arrogant, excessively arrogant, and the Professor doubted someone like him would be intimidated by anyone there.

The problem, however, was the girl next to him.

Even though she was a 4th Circle Mage, for some reason, her personality was timid and the Professor was sure that the Sword's Professor would notice that in an instant and might try to target her.

"You as well, they will try to target you, do not give in and continue to pin the blame on those people who barged into your class and interpreted with your studies, okay?"

The Professor spoke as he glanced at Elara.

"Y-Yes."

With a determined look on her face, Elara nodded, tighteningly her hold around Vaan's arms in the process.

The Professor glanced at the two students one last time before he finally took them to the Teleportation Portal and the next second,

The three of them were in front of the Disciplinary Hall.

They went into a certain room inside the Disciplinary Hall, inside, their eyes fell on Alex and his group who all had disdainful smiles on their faces. In front of the swordsmen, there stood a nearly 176 cm tall woman with long brown hair, dark brown eyes, and a strict look on her face.

From the sword attached to her waist, it was clear that she was a swordsman as well, her aura, however, was much more overpowering than these students.

She was Professor Lavender, one of the faculties of the Swords' Division.

Other than her, there were three other people inside the room. These three were from the Disciplinary Hall and had the most intimidating aura compared to everyone here, for the people meeting them for the first time, these three definitely stood out and it wasn't a surprise for them to see students stuttering in front of them.

"Vaan Astra Vesta and Elara Flameheart?"

The one standing in the middle of the three Disciplinary Hall members questioned as he glanced at Vaan and Elara, he looked like the one with the highest authority in the room and the person who was in charge of the matters here.

Vaan nodded, Elara doing the same when the man looked at him.

"Do you know why you are called here?" The man questioned.

"Professor Asil told us that it would be better to learn about the matter from the one in charge," Vaan replied.

Professor Asil was the Professor who brought them here.

The man nodded and then,

"Elara Flameheart broke the rules of the Academy and used Mana inside the classroom, do you accept?"

He spoke with a strict look on his face.

Elara momentarily flinched, however,

"The students who had barged into our class were about to attack me, even when they were swordsmen with better physical capabilities than me, they still ganged up and decided to come at me together,

Elara did what she did to protect me."

"Doesn't change the fact that she used Mana." The man spoke.

"It does, if she hadn't done that, in desperation, I would have used an Instant Spell in desperation and would have killed a few of these students by mistake.

That would have made matters worse since the Vesta Family wouldn't be providing any explanation since what I did was done out of desperation and self-defense and the Academy would have been held responsible for not being able to ensure student's safety inside the campus."

Vaan shrugged and the moment he said those words, a heavy silence descended on the place.

Professor Asil widened his eyes in horror.

To think this man would push the blame on the Academy instead and would even bring his family into this!

"Do you realize what you are talking about?" The man in charge narrowed his eyes.

"I am talking about the possible sequences had Elara hadn't done what she did. I'd say she did a great job handling the matter without hurting anyone.

I am a new student here, so I still need some time to settle in, however, the fact that the students from the Sword Division were inside the building of the Magic Division, even going as far as ganging up on the students of the Magic Division, I do not know whether it was their mistake or the Academy rules allowed them to do so,

But what I do know is that this matter was handled rather poorly and the results could have been much worse if Elara hadn't interfered"

Vaan spoke with a confident look on her face.

"Do not act like my students were the ones who attacked you first, Student.

It was you who attacked Alex first."

This time, Professor Lavender, who had been silent this whole time spoke up as she stared at Vaan.

"If you had control over hands, this matter wouldn't have come this far."

"I was feeling threatened. These people had swords attached to their waist while I had no weapon, it was a normal human instinct to attack first and try to take the tactical advantage in a fight.

I felt like he was attacking me, so I took action first."

Vaan shrugged.

"You bastard! I didn't even touch my sword and had no plans to attack you!"

Alex shouted.

Vaan, however, simply shrugged,

"I have no way to know that.

This is why I said, students from the Swords Division shouldn't be allowed in the Magic Division in the first place,

It creates unnecessary conflicts."

"You…!"

Alex was frustrated, but then,

"Vaan Astra Vesta, we can have a go at it all day trying to debate who was wrong and who was in the right here and we would get nowhere,

So why don't we save both our times and settle the matter with a duel like your mother used to do?

A one-on-one duel between you and Alex,

The winner becomes right regarding the matter and the loser bows his head and offers a public apology,

Are you up for it?"

Professor Levander questioned with a slight smile on her face.

"Of course, you can always reject since… well, you are not your mother. Not every mage from the Vestas can be like Astra Elysia Vesta, now can they? There are times when even the Prodigies give birth to less fortunate."
