Without having to explain.
Anyone who sees how Dylan's group and Vanessa's group are meeting right now, will say that "there's tension" between them. Both of them, both emit an aura of hatred that can be felt by everyone who sees it.
"So, what do you need to do coming here?".
Dylan was the first to break the silence between them. It took a few seconds for Vanessa to actually answer that question.
"First, my followers and I want to make sure that Mr. Dylan and Mr. Awin have returned safely".
"Hou....".
"And the second is.....".
Vanessa immediately lowered her body forward. Seeing that, all the followers of Vanessa were very surprised especially Stella. While Dylan and the others only raised one of his eyebrows.
"........ I'm really sorry for what I did at the time........ Honestly, I was always filled with regret every time I remembered the events of that time...... However, because I am another salvation...... Then, I had no choice but to give another order".
Vanessa with a sincere expression and attitude really tried to apologize for what she had done to Dylan and Awin back in the Dungeon.
"Mr princess..... You shouldn't have to apologize to these two people".
"That's right, Vanessa's daughter...... At that time the situation was really precarious........ And we have no choice".
"True what was said, Stella-san and Zuzan-san..... At that time you had no choice..... And atleast..... Sacrificing 2 lives to save countless lives, it was the best choice".
Hearing what Gnecci said with a cynical smile just now, made Awin, Ritzia, Filaret, Ornest, Arnold, Garcia, Emilia, Sylvia, and Oliva startled and exuded a powerful killing aura.
"I agree with what was said, Mr. Gnecci".
"Yes, anyways they really don't perform the cleaning task well".
"Not to mention, they both say we're weak, poor little nobleman with no eyes".
"The safety of Princess Vanessa is a top priority..... From the lives of both of them that have no price".
"It's not just that..... That Awin violently hit Reiner-san's face that we're proud of".
"He said Reiner-san was a burden...... Though Reiner-san is stronger than them".
"Yes...... Even Reiner dared to challenge the notoriously strong Falma-senpai".
Dylan immediately glanced at the group of women who seemed to be praising Reiner, not without reason.
That was because, vaguely Dylan recalled the match between Reiner and Falma-senpai. Dylan who was still curious, decided to think about that later. And look back at Vanessa who was still bowing.
"Can we stop this heart-wrenching drama?...... Hoahs....... Awin and I were tired from the long journey...... Lagian...... Is that your back because it bends over?..... And neither you nor your followers need to apologize.....".
"BUT, NII-SAN!!".
"Because.....".
"Eh?".
"...... I can feel "absence of sincerity" in your apology..... In short, stop acting like you feel guilty..... After all, you don't know what that feels like, do you?".
(That's my foul-mouthed brother).
Dylan said that with a cynical smile and gestures that were like mocking Vanessa's apology. And Awin smiled and muttered inwardly hearing it.
Hearing this, without anyone knowing. Vanessa was so shocked that she widened her eyes. His anger increased drastically and it was clear where he was firmly grasping his palm. And squealed his back teeth.
"I can understand that Mr. Dylan and Mr. Awin are still holding a great deal of anger towards me..... But, I'm really sorry about that".
Vanessa, who managed to improve her attitude, returned straight and with a cheerful smile she apologized again to Dylan and Awin.
"It's up to you...... Coincidentally, there's something I and Awin want to ask both of your loyal sycophants".
After saying that, Dylan's vision shifted from Vanessa to Zuzan, who was on Vanessa's left, while Awin looked at Stella, who was on Vanessa's right.
"Ethto..... Zuzan, is your name?...... What about your fireball magic?...... Is it better than the time in the Dungeon?".
"Eh?".
"Ah, so is Dylan...... Stella can you teach me how to make a magic ball out of the lightning element?..... Can, right?".
Hearing the question, Zuzan was suddenly startled and unable to do anything about it, while Stella hid her shock as much as possible.
Hearing that as well, Ornest, Arnold, Garcia, Sylvia, Olivia, Ritzia, Emilia and Filaret immediately turned their eyes towards the two.
"Ka-ka-ka-you...... L-i-i-ni..... What the hell, Dylan?..... Ma-ma-where possible..... I-I-I bi-bi-can fire magic...... My-si-si-magic is wind and earth..... I-i-i-it doesn't MAKE SENSE!!!!".
"Awins..... I know you're still heartbroken by the cancellation of our engagement.... But, accuse me of shooting you with a lightning magic ball..... That's been outrageous..... You're my ex, right?.... You should have known that I could only water magic".
Zuzan refuted Dylan's question with an expression full of body panic that was shaking and dripping with cold sweat. Stella, staying calm, also tried to refute what Awin asked.
"Hou..... Is that so Zuzan?..... I thought you had some kind of hobby to "play with fireballs, then throw them at someone else"...".
Dylan continued to look at Zuzan with a sharp look as if he knew what he was saying was a lie.
"It is precisely because I have known for a long time and have been your fiancee..... That's why I don't want to learn lightning magic with other people..... Besides You".
The same thing Dylan did to Zuzan. Awin also stared intently at Stella who still maintained a calm attitude, even though Awin knew that she was panicking.
Amidst the tension, someone suddenly grabbed Dylan and Awin's shoulders, who appeared to be Arnold.
"Ethto...... You two must be tired, right?..... You better go back to your room and rest".
"Well, you're right Al".
"Thank you for reminding us".
Dylan and Awin agreed with Arnold. And the 1-S class troupe immediately left ignoring Vanessa and her entourage.
Even so, Filaret and Emilia lagged behind while glancing at Vanessa's entourage, especially Zuzan and Stella. Filaret immediately turned and followed the others.
Emilia.
"Listen Stella..... If what Awin said is true...... Then prepare...... I'll make you suffer more than 100 times, okay?".
Satisfied to say that, Emilia soon caught up with the others behind. Meanwhile, Vanessa clenched her teeth and started muttering while biting her thumb.
*Why can't I even get a little attention? Wh why?*.
Back to all the students of class 1-S who were walking in the corridor.
"Hey, Al..... Telling us to "rest" isn't your main reason, is it?".
"You must want to tell us something very important".
Instantly, Arnold who was walking ahead stopped and turned towards Dyan and Awin with a look full of seriousness.
"Yes, that's right".
Dylan and Awin exhaled together as a sign that their conjecture was correct.
"So..... What do you want-not what you want to tell us?".
"It's about the result of the match between Reiner and Falma-senpai".
The two immediately stared intently at Arnold and the atmosphere between them all became tense again.
(--------------------).
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!!!..... FALMA-SENPAI, LOSE?!!!!..... HOW COME?".
Awin was immediately shocked upon hearing that the notoriously strong Falma had lost against Reiner in a one-on-one match.
Awin's questions and shock were only responded by a nod to everyone. Except, Dylan who still looked calm heard that.
"But if I'm honest.... I'm really hard to believe".
"Don't you..... We who watch live there are also made to believe".
While sucking ice juice mango Garcia said that he still hard to believe. A Reiner who they thought was weak could defeat Falma-senpai who was tens of times stronger than him.
"Then later.....".
"Yes, Diandra officially annulled the engagement with Falma-senpai and senpai was also forbidden to approach Diandra again for the rest of her life".
"Not yet there..... In fact, Falma-senpai begins to be ridiculed all out by her classmates and is shunned by everyone".
"There are even some students who say "it's karma to have treated their fiance badly" and so on".
Heard what Ornest, Olivia and Arnold said. It was obvious the expression of pity shown by all including Awin who felt sorry for their Senior.
"Have any of you recorded that match with Protas?".
Dylan who had been silent from earlier suddenly asked the others. Hearing Dylan's question made all of them shake their heads as a sign they didn't.
"I recorded it, really".
Suddenly there was the voice of a woman speaking to them. As she turned her head, it was Claudia von Ritzburg who suddenly appeared before them.
"Yes.... But, I put it in my room..... If Dylan-san doesn't mind, I can show him there".
"All right.... Anyway, I'm curious too..... But, do you mind if I see her in your room?".
"of course.... What's wrong with Dylan-san".
With a happy and enthusiastic smile Claudia clasped Dylan's hand very tightly. Seeing the scene, Awin had a glance towards Filaret, Sylvia and Ritzia who sent a sharp gaze towards Claudia.
But instead of feeling uncomfortable. Claudia who was aware of the gazes of the three, instead sent insinuating gazes and smiles towards the three as well as making them ride apoplexy.
*Not yet, not now..... Why don't you ever be sensitive to the feelings of the girls who like you.... Anbix, Aniki*.
While turning her gaze to the other direction, Awin began to mutter with the insensitivity of his Big Brother.
In Claudia's room.
(I know..... I came to Claudia's room because I wanted to see the recording of the match between Reiner and Falma, but........ Why is this girl sitting next to me..... And this is too close).
In accordance with his wishes, Dylan and his colleagues wanted to see the recording of the match between Reiner and Falma through Claudia's Protas.
But, what was the problem for Dylan at this time was the division of his seat.
Where Dylan and Claudia sat on the bed, and were close together until their shoulders touched each other, while the others sat in scattered chairs.
Apart Dylan who felt awkward. A happy face was shown by Claudia sitting next to her.
Not to mention, Filaret, Ritzia, Sylvia who was staring at the two with a powerful intimidating aura, Garcia who was envious to the point of crying blood.
Ornest, Arnold, Emilia and Olivia were smiling awkwardly. And Awin who glanced in the other direction while exhaling.
"Then let's start with a position like this".
With great pleasure, Claudia immediately started to play her footage which she was emitting onto the wall of the room.
"But I'd rather sit in....".
"Like this".
Dylan who felt awkward tried to stand up and moved to an empty chair, but Claudia sparingly prevented him and asked him to sit next to her.
Having no other choice, Dylan decides to stick to what Claudia wants. But, his eyes glanced at Helena while asking for help.
Realizing that, Helena simply turned her face away while closing her eyes and started muttering to herself. But, the murmur could be heard clearly by Dylan who showed a blue vein on his head.
*Oh, my sweet and innocent Miss Claudia.... Already turned into a brave girl*.
(Basic Servers ngak use).
Regardless of that. Claudia started showing the footage of Reinner and Falma's match.
(----------------)
Although in the Protas device is a magic tool that is preferred for long-distance communication. In fact, the device can also be used as a recording device and become a projector screen.
While watching the tape.
It seemed obvious that Reiner was really struggling and was constantly attacking Falma very arrogantly without making any plans.
For Class 1-S and Claudia what Reiner did was just to go forward and swing his weapon.
And Falma was just casually fending off and resisting every attack from Reiner as if it was no problem for him.
The audience cheered, praising Reiner who thought he had cornered Falma.
But, then Falma immediately counterattacked which very quickly turned things around. And he really put Reiner in a cornered state.
Then something strange started to happen.
Just as Falma was about to launch one ultimate attack, Falma suddenly bounced to the side until he rolled around several times.
Making use of that, Reiner immediately pointed his sword at Falma who was about to get up right at his neck.
Seeing the footage, Dylan immediately asked Claudia to stop the playback. Because he saw something wrong.
"She, can you stop the recording".
"alright".
Something Dylan requested, Claudia stopped the tape.
"Please rewind and stop when Falma-senpai bounces off".
Claudia re-runs the scene where Falma suddenly bounces. Dylan carefully watched the image he was looking at with full concentration. Similarly, with Awin who did the same.
"She, can you zoom in..... Particularly in the left, waistline of Falma-senpai".
"alright".
Claudia did what Dylan asked. And after it was enlarged and clarified.
Although Dylan could faintly see there was a wisp of green that seemed to attack Falma from the side.
Seeing that, Dylan immediately covered his face with his right hand then he started laughing. Follow by Awin who does the same.
Seeing that, it made everything astonished while raising one of his eyebrows. Then, Dylan began to speak.
"Damor.......... I do feel like something is wrong..... Hihah..... But I didn't think it was that way..... Hishi".
"Damor..... You were right, Dylan..... I can't even stop laughing...... Hihi.......".
"Ano......... Why are you two laughing?......... And is there anything funny?".
Out of curiosity, Olivia asks why Dylan and Awin are laughing. Then, Dylan immediately said what the reason was.
"Livia..... We laugh not because something is funny..... Laughing at what we see".
Olivia doesn't understand what Dylan's saying. But, Dylan immediately explained what he meant.
"People might say this is Reiner's "win...... But, after seeing this..... I'd say "victory" Reiner..... It's a fraud".
"Eh?".
Suddenly the room became quiet and silent. Everyone was shocked and astonished by the conclusion drawn by Dylan after seeing the footage of the match.
(-----------------)
"Let's take a good look at the picture in front of it...... Isn't there something strange?".
All immediately turned their heads back and watched the stalled footage closely.
After a while they began to realize and see what Dylan and Awin were laughing at.
"Now understand, right?........ The reason why Dylan and I laughed was...... Because when Falma-senpai was about to make a final attack on Reiner..... Someone shot magic at him".
"And from the direction of the magic came..... The shooter was clearly from the bleachers.......".
Hearing what was described by Dylan and Awin, Filaret was immediately pensive for a moment and began to speak.
"so yeah..... Then I guess I wasn't wrong at that time".
"Eh? What do you mean Fira?".
Emila who heard that immediately asked Filaret for an explanation of his words just now.
"At that time, I had a sense of the existence, foreign magic energy that came out among the spectators for a moment..... But, because I thought it was just my feeling..... That's why I ignored it".
"Thank you, Fira..... With you saying that.... So my guess and Awin's got stronger that Falma-senpai was rigged".
"Eh? Why do you say that, Dylan?".
Ornest, wondering why Dylan could easily believe Filaret's words, immediately asked.
"Since childhood, Fira has the ability to feel the magic energy of everyone around her..... He could also tell if there was someone around him who suddenly activated their magic even though the person did it with very thin and subtle energy".
"Eh? Isn't that a great ability".
Ornest who heard that was surprised instead of playing, while Fira became happy because of her ability to be praised.
"But, why did the referee declare Reiner's win?".
Claudia who was also curious tried to ask. And Claudia's question was immediately answered by the Ritzia.
"The jury was a teacher whose family was in the Vanessa Faction..... And it happens that the Falma-senpai family, Hildebrand, once refused an offer to join the Vanessa faction....... And would rather be in my faction...... My guess is, maybe that guy knows that there's cheating..... But, he decided to ignore that on purpose".
Hearing that made everyone begin to understand what the reason why the referee at that time declared Reiner's victory even though he was aware of the fraud.
(I did not expect that this match was also used to suppress people in the Ritzia faction...... And I'm sure that Diandra was also part of the fraud that Falma-senpai had...... Given how much he hates Falma-senpai and her family....... Now, how does it prove that Falma-senpai was rigged..... Given the culprit's part of the Vanessa faction..... They must have closed it very neatly..... Means now I, can only ask one person for help).
Smiling, Dylan knew in this unfortunate situation. He knew who to ask for help.
