"What is going on there?" Vale muttered as he felt the energy being gathered.
He could tell right now that it was only starting… It was unlike before, when he could only notice the summoning circle once the ritual was completed.
After some time, he realized that the amount of Arcane Energy being gathered wasn't actually that strong.
Perhaps, they were only summoning a creature with a strength close to Half-Immortal.
'Hmm… I guess it's not that important…' Vale mused.
Although they could be doing something evil, it wasn't a threat that he had to intervene just yet. The officials or the organizers should be able to handle this kind of small setback.
For now, he turned his attention to the competition that was still going on.
The announcer called out, "Skye of Marshall Academy!"
The hall fell silent. Everyone remembered her devastating strike against the Imp. Now they wondered… could she excel in a test that demanded endurance and care rather than destruction?
