Magic Academy's
84. The missing earrings

Since then, Zen has not focused on finding the diamond. His mind kept thinking of Heria, because of Bereilla's words to him earlier.

Zen looked towards Bereilla who was looking for a diamond not far from its place. He looks upset.

Bereilla hopes that the jewel will be found quickly, so that she can help Heria find her lost earrings.

...****************...

Seen, in the arena, Trisian Academy has found its lost gem. They completed the mission by getting first position.

Several other academies have also realized this and are looking for the missing diamond.

“In order for this mission to be completed, he must think about the feelings of his friend who lost a valuable item.” murmured Lisia, he then gazed towards the 4th Emperor, ‘Wah… could-be they made a match thinking about the feelings of others.’ Inner Lisia, she laughed in her heart, remembering how the attitude of those Emperors was.

“Zen seems to be provoked by the words Bereilla earlier.” said Xava.

“Ya, great. If he can talk to Heria or Bereilla about Heria's earrings, I think he can realize it.” Lisia replied.

...****************...

Zen approached Bereilla who was looking for diamonds under a tree.

“Hei,” Zen grinder, Bereilla who feels called then stares at Zen, “How about Heria senior earrings?”

“Hah? Why are you suddenly curious about that?” reply Bereilla cynically.

“I'll help him find his earrings.” Zen said.

Really, it feels like Bereilla is replying to it with the word ‘No need’. But, ‘Don't be stubborn Bereilla! Act as a good senior!’ his mind is warning itself.

Bereilla stood up, then he looked at Zen, “The earrings are circular with green colored gems.” he said answering Zen's previous questions.

Hearing that, Zen was surprised, “Permata?”

“What's up?” bereilla asked who saw Zen's reaction.

“Gosh... We're looking for ‘missing eyes’! Senior!” reply Zen.

Bereilla who heard that was shocked, right too! Why didn't he think about it!

‘You fool! Bereilla!’ bereilla's mind is self-styling.

“Already, let's go.” Zen told Bereilla.

Zen went from there to look for Heria, Bereilla who saw it came running to chase after Zen.

They kept looking for common ground here, Zen tracked Heria's energy. After finding her, she ran towards where Heria was.

Zen was surprised to see what had happened to Heria, she was lying under a tree with a wound that looked quite severe. Bereilla who was behind Zen also saw that, he was certainly surprised to see it.

Zen ran over to Heria, when he immediately checked the condition of his senior.

Heria lay unconscious, her injuries quite severe although fortunately did not put her life at risk.

“Senior, you mastered healing magic?” ask Zen to Bereilla.

Bereilla shook her head, “No..”.

Really, it felt like Zen was really dizzy thinking about this. She blamed herself, had she asked Heria about her missing earrings! Or if he had better understood the sentence the host spoke!

While Bereilla, she also blamed herself. Had he been smarter to realize about those earrings! None of this is going to happen!

Heria's eyes opened slightly, she vaguely saw someone, though she did not see clearly, but she was sure that they were Zen and Bereilla, “A-antiku.

“Heria!” Bereilla clasped Heria's hand, she was really worried. His mind was spinning considering that it was he who invited Heria to join this match. Makes his guilt rise.

Zen accidentally saw a brooch not far from the place, he stood up and took the brooch and looked at it. The brooch had the Sword Academy emblem.

“Senior Bereilla, wait here with senior Heria.” Zen said.

“Where are you going?” ask Bereilla.

“Taking the earring.” reply Zen.

...****************...

Elsewhere, it appeared that the representatives of Sword Academy were walking. Their lost gems are hair accessories and they have yet to find them. They just walked from there, to look for the accessories.

The representative of Sword Academy for this match was: First, Zarka Herzenia— the red-haired man who was with Gierella 3 days ago. As they saw Lisia's petty quarrel with the representatives of the Trisian Academy. Second, Verzea Herzenia— he is Zarka's brother. And third, Carrez Larian— Kei's brother.

Zen was right in front of the three people, he stopped their path.

Zarka saw the uniform that Zen wore, “Representative Magic Academy huh?” said it.

“Your uniform is torn, did you lose a fight?” Verzea mocked Zen.

Zen stared at them sharply, “Wah... It seems like you guys have never been taught manners huh?”.

“What do you mean? We are nobles, so of course we are taught manners. Only ordinary people are not taught manners.” Verzea says it with confidence.

“Really? But I think your manners are worse than ordinary people.” said Zen.

Verzea laughed, “Haha.. You're not trying to call yourself, are you?”

“Of course not...” Zen pulled out his sword, he quickly moved to the back of Verzea, “I am charging you.

Before Zen slashed at Verzea, Zarka first held back Zen's movements. It did not deter Zen, he instead swung his sword and slashed at Zarka's feet.

Zarka cried out in pain, she fell on the ground. The slash wound was not too deep, but it was enough to make him unable to stand for a while.

“It's a pity.. Whereas I want to cut off your legs.” Zen said, his tone flat and his gaze sharp. He looks terrible at the moment, “I came here to take back our lost gems, and also avenge you for injuring our members.”

Carrez pulled out his sword and attacked Zen, Zen resisted the attack and counterattacked Carrez.

“Your sword skills are good. But, what if I cut off your hand?” ask Zen.

Hearing that, Carrez immediately moved away from Zen before he attacked him, ‘That bluff was terrible.’

At Zen's feet, a magic circle appeared. Zen turned his head and looked at the direction the magic circle was coming from, Verzea.

From that magic circle, the ground appeared and locked up Zen. And Zen destroyed the land with ease.

Zen moved quickly and attacked Verzea. Zarka who saw him tried to save his sister, but his injured leg blocked him.

Before his sword hit Verzea, Zen removed his sword. And he used magic to attack Verzea. Verzea was thrown and hit on the tree, then Zen used magic to tie Verzea to the tree.

Verzea looked at Zen, “Why didn't you kill me?” he said, he smiled lightly at Zen.

“I'd love to kill you, but unfortunately it's a match.” Zen replied. Then he turned around and looked at Zarka and Carrez, “Where is our gem?”

Seriate…
