My Angel system-Chapter 390 Crockel Academy’s Participant
"Alright, for this part of the tournament we have only three academies participating." The sergeant said. "We have Phoenix academy, Eukerion academy, and Tron Ville academy."
"Why weren't we told about this event?" Nicole asked, turning her gaze to Kelvin who was sitting beside her. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮
"It's not an important event Nicole, it's not necessary to participate in it," Kelvin said.
"That doesn't mean we don't have to participate in it," Nicole said.
"We had too many events to handle during the competition so there was no time to conduct a competition to choose the students to participate in it," Kelvin said.
"You should have at least told me, I could have made an assessment and found the students myself," Nicole said.
The students from the three academies participating in the disc dodging competition had all matched into the pitch now and among them, Luis had spotted someone familiar.
The student representing Phoenix academy in this competition had turned out to be Mason, the student he had met at the arcade.
A larger version of the machine had been pushed into the pitch by two sergeants and a larger version of the flat disc had been carried into the pitch by another sergeant.
After that, the students were handed black gloves which they were required to put on for the competition.
The student representing Eukerion academy was a blonde-haired female who had the number four displayed on her watch while the person representing Tron Ville academy was a frail-looking boy who also had the number four displayed on his watch.
Mason seemed to be the highest student among them as he had the number five displayed on his wristwatch.
'I thought he was just there to make deals and collect coins, I didn't know he actually played the game.' Luis thought.
'But how well? That should be your question.' Lena said.
"Miranda Kerr is the first person on my list, so Mirinda Kerr please step up to the disc." The sergeant said pointing at the disc which was placed quite a distance away from the disc shooting machine.
Mirinda Kerr did as she was told and slowly stepped onto the disc as the sergeant walked closer to the machine.
"Remember Mirinda, those gloves will detect when your feet touch the ground and when you touch any of the discs, it will be immediately reflected on the disc as the light on its edge will turn red.
"Each of you will take turns for each level until the last level, which is level seven."
Jackson Sunblade was paying keen attention to what was going on in the arena until he heard Chris say something.
"Why does your continent always have to be the odd one out?" Chris said with a mocking expression on his face.
"Yeah, Jackson, it's supposed to be four students out there not three," Mia said, shifting the strands of her black hair which were covering her face to the side.
"Alright Mirinda, I am going to push this start button and after twenty seconds the discs are going to start coming." The sergeant said but just as he was about to click the button…
"Stop!" Jackson's fierce voice resounded from the speakers around the stadium.
That voice had startled quite a number of students in the stadium.
The leaders were provided with microphones in their stand in case they wanted to say anything important.
"Does the head of Crockel academy mind explaining why there is not a student from his academy out there ?" Jackson asked to the hearing of everyone in the stadium.
"This isn't good right?" Nova pulled closer to Nicole's ear to whisper as she was sitting behind her.
"No, it isn't," Nicole replied, shaking her head.
"Nicole, can you get a student ready to participate in the competition?" Kelvin quickly turned to Nicole to ask.
"If you had informed me about this earlier, that wouldn't have been a problem but how am I supposed to know who to pick now?" Nicole asserted.
"Just pick anybody," Kelvin said with a desperate tone to his voice.
"The martial arts students, Michael's, trained them with a machine similar to that one before," Nova suggested.
"He has?" Nicole said.
"Yeah," Nova replied with a nod.
Nicole let out a sigh as she dipped her hands into her bag on the floor and brought out her tablet.
"What are you doing? I told you to get a student out there." Kelvin said with a baffled look on his face as he watched her scroll through her tablet.
"That's what I'm doing sir, I'm sending a message to all the martial arts students to meet me inside." She said.
"I'm still waiting for your reply," Jackson said as he still had not gotten any reply from Kelvin.
"Umm…yeah," Kelvin said quickly, pulling the microphone in front of him closer. "He's on his way."
"He's on his way," Jackson repeated. "So your participant is a male student?"
"Umm…yes sir," Kelvin said.
"And why didn't he enter along with the other participants?" Jackson inquired.
"I don't know but he's going to come in now," Kelvin answered.
"You don't know and you just sat down there relaxed," Jackson said. "That's not an excuse but I'll let it slide and hope that this doesn't get repeated." He added before turning off his microphone.
Kelvin let out a sigh of relief before relaxing in his seat.
"That was close," Jack said, he was the one sitting beside him.
Nicole along with Nova had already left the stadium but Kelvin needed someone to make sure that someone was chosen and brought to the stadium quickly.
"Lennon." He called as Lennon happened to be the person sitting behind him.
"Yeah," Lennon said, pulling closer to him.
"Go inside there and make sure they pick a student fast," Kelvin ordered.
"Okay, sir," Lennon said, quickly getting up from his seat.
"Make sure they pick a male student, not a female student," Kelvin said.
"Okay," Lennon said before quickly making her way out of the area.
Inside one of the rooms in the stadium were Luis, Ella, Silvia, Henry, Monica, and Henry who had all gotten the message from Nicole and had quickly made their way there.
"Where's Orah?" Monica asked, looking around.
"Is he a martial arts student?" Nicole asked.
"Yeah," Monica said with a nod.
"Don't worry, we already have enough students to choose from here," Nova said.
"Okay," Monica said.
"So who are we going to choose now," Nicole said looking at all the students. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚
"You know you can't choose a female right?" Lennon's voice was heard as the door was quickly pushed open.
"Huh? Why not?" Nicole asked.
"He told him that his participant is a male student," Lennon said.
"So we have to pick between Luis, Dylan, and Henry," Monica said.
Nicole stared at the three boys for a while before making up her mind. She wasn't going to pick Luis because Nova had told her to leave him out because there was a chance that he could do something that would lead to him getting exposed.
"I think Henry is the right person for this job," Nicole said.
"Henry?" Monica said with a baffled look on her face.
She was surprised to see Henry getting picked over Luis.
This competition required speed and during the time she had been with the two, she had gotten convinced that Luis was the faster of the two.
"I know we don't have enough time to do proper assessments but I think the green-eyed kid should be the one participating," Lennon said, moving closer to Luis.
"No, Luis can't go out there," Nicole said.
"Why not?" Lennon asked.
"He's not that fast," Nicole said.
"Not that fast? I watched the fights during the competition at the school and even if he's not that fast, I know he's faster than him." Lennon said, pointing at Henry.
"Great, now everyone is looking down on me," Henry mumbled under his breath.
There was no other excuse that either Nova or Nicole could give as to why Luis couldn't participate in the competition as Lennon had finally decided that he was going to be the one representing them.
"Let's go," Lennon said to Luis before quickly making his way out of the room.
"Good luck Luis," Monica said before making her way out of the room.
"Don't do anything suspicious," Nova muttered to him before making her way out of the room.
'I fought in the competition and didn't do anything suspicious, why does she suddenly think I'm going to do something suspicious?' The Angel pondered.
The sergeant was beginning to lose his patience as they had been waiting for Crockel academy's participant for about ten minutes now and just as he was about to complain, Luis could be seen jogging into the pitch.
"Okay, it looks like that's the participant for Crockel academy." The sergeant said.
"I had a feeling they were going to choose him," Chloe said.
"Yeah, but where's Dylan?" Tania asked looking around the area to see if she could spot the blonde-haired teenager.
The Angel had established eye contact with Mason as soon as he had gotten closer to his opponents but it didn't take long before Mason had looked away to break the eye contact.
"Here, put these on," Mirinda said, handing him the black gloves she was holding.
"Okay," Luis said, taking the gloves from her.
"Mirinda step on the disc for the first round please." The Sergeant said as Mirinda quickly stepped onto the spot.
The Sergeant didn't bother to go over the rules again as he quickly pushed the start button.
"You have twenty seconds before the discs start coming."
