Beast Evolution-Chapter 219 219 One Condition

"If you want to know how well you can do, you should challenge one of the knights around, not a student" Selena spoke and looked at Ray.

Ray chuckled slightly then he saw the look on Selena's face meaning she was serious, "I can't fight a knight, do you want to get me killed" Ray pleaded.

"I'm not forcing you to," Selena said with a smile on her face.

"I want to start small, the tournament would first be among the first year then the second year and then the third year"

"I still don't know if the knights are going to allow you and you are already planning the tournament" Selena laughed.

"If you tell them they are going to allow me, they have no choice, you are the head of the mage academy" Ray whispered the last sentence.

"Yes that's the problem, I'm the head of the mage academy, not the head of the knight academy, I have no right here, I'm just going to talk to them, and I'm leaving at noon, my clone would take over"

"But you would talk to them first right?" Ray asked eagerly.

"Yes, but on one condition"

"I'll do anything..." Ray said but he quickly regretted it.

"Learn [Dark cloak] before the day ends, if you can't I'll tell the knights not to allow you to participate in the tournament even if you cry your eyes out," Selena said maliciously.

"B-But...you...I can't..." Ray was utterly confused, he wanted to speak but the words he spoke kept cracking.

Selena was snow in front as they walked towards the academy, Ray couldn't walk fast anymore as he tried to think of a way to learn the spell.

Even if he studied the magic circle and perfect it, he didn't know what he would do after that.

Ray didn't know when they arrived at the academy and walked through the gates, Ray didn't know where he was heading he was just following Selena.

"Where are you going?" Selena asked him.

Ray raised his head and he was in front of a small building and Selena was staring at him, he looked around and he could see the training ground far from where he was.

"Ma'am I'm not sure that's possible," Ray said with sad eyes.

"You aren't trying enough, this is an opportunity for you to go beyond your limits," Selena said and close the door.

'I know he can do it, I just want him to try harder, I know he can't learn the spell, but he's trying hard' Selena mumbled to herself.

"What am I going to do, I'll try everything I know" Ray shrugged as he walked back to the dorms.

The knight academy had different rooms and buildings making it the biggest in Bullmar city, the city was named after the academy.

The gate of the academy wasn't as big as the main gates of the city but the land itself was huge and spacious, the first-year dorm was the first building immediately after entering the academy.

The large training ground followed after and seats had been arranged in anticipation of the upcoming tournaments, the second year, and third-year dorms were at the far end, while different buildings were scattered all over.

Even the students didn't know the use of some of the buildings, but they were just empty houses and some of them were indoor training grounds.

The swords class, archery class, spear class, and martial class each had a special building for their training, and equipments were provided.

Ray was surprised as he didn't see any of the students in the field, every morning they usually train before doing anything else but no one was in the training grounds.

Ray walked back to the dorms still thinking about how he would learn a spell in just few hours, he wanted to participate in the tournament but the knights didn't want him to, but now that he has a shot he wanted to participate by all means.

"None of them are in the dorms, are they already in class this early" Ray wondered as he walked past each of the rooms.

He finally reached his room and he opened the door, to his surprise Leia was inside the room, she was still asleep and fully covered by her sheets.

'Why isn't she in training, Is something wrong' Ray walked towards her and touched her head.

"Woah..."

Her head was boiling, even though the weather was cold her head was very hot, she opened her eyes slowly and saw Ray staring at her.

"Are you okay Leia?"

"Y-Yes, I'm just a little cold," she said in a low voice.

"You are just a little cold and your head is boiling, I think you have a fever, do you need anything?"

"No...I just need to rest, a mage would come to see me soon so don't worry" Leia tried to flash a smile.

"That's right magic...I don't know if my spell would be able to cure illness, I shouldn't try anything reckless, I'm here in case you need anything" Ray said and sat on the ground with his back against the wall.

"Aren't you going to training, there are doing special training because of the tournament...Oh I forgot you can't join but still, you should go"

"Special training... I'll pass, I have important training right now" Ray brought out the drawing of the magic circle that Selena drew.

"What important training do you have?" Leia asked.

"Magic..."

"That's interesting...also where did you guys visit yesterday, we didn't get to see your destination, and your teacher is really young," Leia said.

"We went outside of the city, we went to a dungeon," Ray said. 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶

"A dungeon... that's exciting, what beast did you guys meet, was your training in the dungeon?" Leia asked in a low voice.

"Yes kinda, it was a golem dungeon, though Sel...my teacher said we would see other beasts but we didn't, and they wasn't any infected beasts," Ray said.
