The Inter Class Exchange ended on a grim note.

It was a far cry from the excitement that had enveloped the hall on the first day, but no one seemed to notice the drastic change of atmosphere.

As expected, the final match was considered to be Invalid, so the Elite Tournament ended with the results gotten from the first nine matches;

Upper Class: 9 Wins, 0 Losses

Middle Class: 0 Wins, 9 Losses

Lower Class: 0 Wins, 9 Losses

No one objected to the results since it was obvious from what they had witnessed.

The expressions of the Elites of the Lower Class rang of relief. They seemed overjoyed that the bothersome exchange was over and they could now properly rest… unshackled by any more responsibilities on their part.

It was a wonder how none of them felt any shame or embarrassment concerning the gruesome loss they had suffered.

For those in the Middle Class, it was clear that they were frustrated.

Even though they had given their all in battle, all of them still encountered loss. Their results were no different from the Lower Class Elites who didn’t even bother. It made them feel foolish for even trying, in the first place.

Fortunately, their reputation increased a slight bit in the Exchange since some of the Middle Class Elites put up a pretty decent fight. As a result, unlike the Lower Class losers, they could still hold on to a fraction of their dignity.

This was the only merit they got in exchange for not giving up.

As for the Upper Class Elites, the undisputed winners of the Exchange, their expressions should have been that of pride and confidence. They should have reveled in their victory! However, the sour expressions that painted their faces contrasted what would have been expected from them.

Fear

Anxiety

Disappointment

Bitterness

Anger

A mix of negative emotions coagulated the atmosphere of the champions, enough to make a person confused as to who won and who lost.

Even the audience was in unrest!

After experiencing the ghastly sight of a single Lower Class student easily trumping one of the strongest Rankers in the Academy, it felt like their concept of balance and logic had completely shattered.

Still, with the events of the day concluded, and the fact that the students had their personal businesses to attend to, a conclusion had to be made concerning the bizarre event.

Despite the uncertainties in the air, the Exchange ended, and the students were allowed to leave the hall.

Ana and Edward exited the hall, having worried looks on their faces.

They wondered about Jared, where he went to after he left the hall back then. At the time they wanted to follow him, but Kuzon and the others advised against it, lest they got caught up in the mess the boy had made.

Of course, the two didn’t care in the slightest, but after considering the possibility that Jared wouldn’t want them to suffer for his actions, and also that the boy most likely wished to be alone, they backed off.

Now that the Exchange was over, Ana and Edward were obviously going to look for their friend. It was only a matter of where he had run off to.

“You guys, hold up!” Someone called out after them.

There was no way anyone could mistake his casual, smooth voice… it was Kuzon.

“You’re off to look for Jared, right? Count me in!” The boy flashed a slight grin.

It appeared that after his match in the finals, he had taken an interest in Jared and wanted to be in his company. Since the latter didn’t seem to mind his presence, Ana and Edward so no problems if he tagged along…

… That is, if it was only him!

“Count me in too!

“You bet I’m coming as well…”

“… Me too…”

Ivan Smith, Stefan Netherlore, and Maria Helmsworth chimed in, appearing as though they had been there all this time but were just waiting for their entrance.

While Edward and Ana felt slightly uncomfortable with the crowd, they didn’t have the time nor energy to banter, so they agreed to everyone’s offer.

“Alright! I have a pretty good idea where he might be, so let’s go there first.” Taking the lead, Edward declared and started moving swiftly.

The rest followed.

CLACK

Sounds of footsteps echoed across the bright corridor, and a girl’s elegant shoes were clearly seen as her legs trotted across the passage.

There was a large door directly in her front, just a few meters from where she was, making her steps slow and confident. There was no need to rush since the target was just within reach.

Upon reaching the door, she opened it lightly, reflecting her clear, beautiful skin, and ventured into the large room inside.

Within the room, though separated by thin layers of sheet that hung like curtains, were two boys. They were lying on their beds, clearly asleep.

This was a Medic Ward, and the two boys were in some nasty conditions before they were brought in for treatment. Thanks to some high-class Potions and very impressive Magic, their condition had stabilized, and they were currently in deep sleep thanks to a Spell cast by their medical supervisor.

Other than the two boys, no one else was present in the room… the medics were on break… until one person entered.

The girl, her blue ribbons evident in her long, brown hair, entered the room with zero caution. Her deep blue eyes currently had some sort of dark gleam radiating within, but the slight bowing posture she currently had made it nearly Impossible to completely make out the contents of her face.

Was she smiling, or…?!

Her first mode of action was to swiftly glide across the room, to the section where one of the boys lay. His auburn hair hung loosely as his body lay comfortably on the bed. This boy’s name was Jerry, and after fighting in the Exchange, his injuries were so severe that they were just shy from fatal.

The intruder—now by his bedside—used her delicate-looking hands to brush Jerry’s face as she stared longingly at him.

Now looking so intently—no, obsessively—at the boy she gently stroked, the culprit’s face came into view.

Her name was Ciara Epilson… the Second Seat among the Rankers!
