Chapter 94: The Yearly Tournament

After finishing his morning routines, Kraftvoll decided to go on his way to the site where the yearly tournament of the Verrater Academy will be held.

When he came out of his room, he saw his two sworn brothers impatiently waiting for him. Kraftvoll greeted his two sworn brothers. "Good morning, Second Brother, Third Brother!"

"Let's go right away! We're gonna be late!" said Godwin. Kraftvoll was puzzled after hearing Godwin's eagerness to go. He said in response, "But, we still have a lot of time before the tournament start, right?"

Prince Aragorn butted in their conversation, he said, "Teacher Kyleen said yesterday that we need to be at the Alstan Stadium an hour before the start of the actual tournament. So that we can discuss battle strategies before it starts."

Kraftvoll suddenly remembered what Teacher Kyleen told them the other day. He said with a mischievous smile, "I forgot! We have no other choice but to rush, let's go! We can barely arrive at the stadium at the promised time if we rush going there."

The three kids ran as fast as they can toward the Alstan Stadium. After a few minutes, they made it barely in time. All the girls and Teacher Kyleen were already there at their promised place to meet.

After Teacher Kyleen saw these three kids going to their assigned room, she said, "Oh. And here I thought that you three are going to be late this time as well. Okay then, let's start talking about your opponents and battle strategies you needed to keep up or even beat them."

Teacher Kyleen started the explanation of the important part of the yearly tournament. "The first part of the tournament is gonna be the six-man team competition. While the second part of the tournament is the third-man team competition. While the last part of this year's tournament is the Battle Royale which will be held at the special place of our Verrater Academy."

"Are all these events going to be held this day?" Belle asked their homeroom teacher, Teacher Kyleen.

"Yes. There is only an hour interval between the three-man competition and the battle royale. Our class is going to face the 209th class of the academy which means that your opponent will be second-year students of the academy. The Battle Royale competition will be held after these two competitions." she answered to Belle's inquiry.

Teacher Kyleen explained the other important points of the tournament to Kraftvoll and the other representatives of the 210th class. After that, they started meeting about the battle strategies they're going to use in their battle until the tournament started to be commenced by the Verrater Academy's headmaster, Headmaster Wylris.

Kraftvoll and the other representatives of the 210th class went to the designated seats for the participants alongside their homeroom teacher, Teacher Kyleen.

Headmaster Wylris entered the big arena of the Alstan Stadium and he started speaking, "Honorable visitors and students of our great Verrater Academy, I welcome you all to the yearly tournament of our academy!"

Everyone seated at the stadium's audience seats clapped and cheered very loudly. The audiences of this tournament were composed of some of the academy's students, normal citizens of various kingdoms of the Holy Alliance, and some of the academy's alumni.

Some of the nobilities of the Holy Alliance also attended just to watch this incredible event of the year. Some of the royalties even attended the tournament. The main pillars of the Holy Alliance were not able to watch the tournament because of their tremendous duty to the alliance but some of their family members managed to watch the tournament.

Headmaster Wylris continued talking, "The title of being a genius is nothing if you can't prove it through your action! Prove your worth, oh students of the great Verrater Academy. Remember that all of you are the cream of the crop of the Holy Alliance! Chase your dreams and go to the top. You are the geniuses of our academy, you don't have to be afraid! Now, I officially declare, the yearly tournament starts now!"

The cheer became even louder than it was before. Everyone cheered, "Long live the great Verrater Academy!"

The master of the ceremonies entered the stage with a seishin device to make his voice louder. He said, "We're going to start the first part of the tournament!"
