Magic Academy's
80. The fourth match (2)

Lisia, Xava and Hain entered the arena.

Shortly after, a table appeared. On the table, there were several sheets of paper in red, blue and yellow.

[Please choose one color! The color you choose will determine what you get! And you have to choose a different color with your friends! Please choose well!]

Lisia picked up the red paper, "I'll pick the red" she told Xava and Hain.

Hain picked up the blue paper, "I'm blue."

Xava picked up the yellow paper, "Then, I'll choose the yellow."

After everyone chose the color, a large magic circle appeared and 36 pairs of chairs and tables came out of the magic circle.

[Please sit! You can sit in any chair.]

The representatives of the academy chose their respective seats.

Shortly after, the Magic Academy professors walked into the arena and shared the matter with them.

As the host said, the question obtained depends on the color chosen.

After the professors shared the matter, they left the arena.

[Limit of doing the problem is 1 hour.]

[Fourth match...begins!].

The participants started reading the questions they got and working on them.

Lisia wrote the name and origin of her academy on the answer paper. Then he read about what he got.

'Well, it seems like I was out of luck this time.' Inner Lisia stared at those matters.

The thing he got was quite difficult. Lisia is working on that from what she thinks is easiest among others.

While the other representatives, there are difficulties. But there are those who do it calmly.

[Participant in row 4, seat 3 from right, cheating!]

Hearing the words of the host, Lisia turned to her left, where the person mentioned was sitting right on her left.

"I'm not cheating!" That guy's trying to dodge.

A screen appeared, showing that the person was using his magic to see the other representative's answer.

[You are disqualified, please return to the waiting room!]

"No! I'm not cheating! There must be something wrong—" Before he finished his words, someone used wind magic to take him out of the arena.

After the person left, the question paper and the person's answer paper then disappeared slowly like they were on fire, along with the blue colored paper.

The other participants who saw it broke out in cold sweat, thinking about what if they were in that position.

Hain looked at Lisia who was next to the person who had just been disqualified, he heaved a sigh of relief as it was not Lisia who was disqualified. When he heard about the 4th row, he had a panic because Lisia was sitting in that row.

Time goes on, though,

[Participant 2nd row, first seat from the right, cheating.]

[Participant 5th row, 2nd seat from the right, cheating.]

[Participant 2nd row, fourth seat from right, cheating.]

More and more academy representatives are disqualified for cheating.

Lisia read the matter well, there were only a few numbers left for her to answer.

Lisia remembered something, she read back the number 5 question she had not answered. Then he answered the number 5 based on what he remembered.

Lisia returned to work on another matter, remembering what she had learned.

Right behind Lisia, someone who also chose the color red, tried to cheat Lisia's answer.

Lisia realized that the person was going to cheat, "You want to be disqualified huh?" lisia said without taking her eyes off the paper.

That person was surprised because Lisia noticed it, "Huh? You're accusing me of cheating?!" he tried to evade.

Lisia looked at the person, "I didn't mention that it was you, but you were evasive. Can that be called your confession?"

"You!" That person raised his voice, making the spectators stare at him.

[Participant 5th row, seat 2nd from the right trying to cheat from participant of row 4, seat 2nd from the right! You're disqualified!]

"What the fuck?! I didn't do it!" That guy's trying to dodge.

A screen appeared, showing that the person really wanted to cheat from Lisia, but Lisia noticed.

The person was surprised to see the screen, "That's not true!"

A wind magic dragged the person out of the arena, "No! This is not true! I'm not cheating!" The person continued to rebel, even trying to use his magic, but failed.

That person looked at Lisia with a vengeful gaze, 'I will avenge you, Magic Academy representative!'

Then, the question paper and the person's answer paper slowly disappeared along with the red colored paper.

***

[Time out!]

The pen the representatives used disappeared, making them stop writing.

[The score and champion of this fourth match are announced in 1 hour! Please rest first!]

The academy representatives who were in the arena as well as the waiting room then left from there. The audience also left their place.

"Is it easy, Lisia?"

Lisia turned her head and looked at Hain, "Hard." she said, "If you?"

"It's hard too" said Hain.

Xava approached Lisia and Hain, "I shouldn't have chosen the color yellow." he said.

"What's the hard thing?" ask Lisia.

"It's very hard."

***

"Hey, you!"

Lisia stopped walking when she heard a voice from behind, she turned her head and saw the person who had been cheating on her, "Why?"

"How dare you embarrass me!" That person looked at Lisia with a gaze full of anger and hatred.

"I'm just warning you, but you're yelling and putting yourself to shame" Lisia said.

"I will definitely repay you!" He looked at Lisia with a vengeful gaze, "My name is Gell Cirze, remember that well!" he said and left from there.

Seriate...
