Ancient Tears BloodLine



After Zack and Ernest left the scene. The Gale faction warriors stayed on the spot. Everyone is looking at Vina with a solemn expression.

No one has disrespected her before. Zack's words not only insulted Vina. But it's insulting their entire Gale Faction. 

Unlike everyone else, Vina fell into contemplation. She takes Zack's words into account. There is no reason for Zack to accept her duel request.

She realized it was an unreasonable one. She then turned towards her friends and asked, "Where is she?"

The slender-looking young man asked, "Who?"

"Eurice Frye"

"I would like to win against her first," Vina said.

Hearing that, everyone was surprised. They didn't expect Vina to consider Zack's words. 

"Vina, are you serious?" The female warrior asked.

Vina sighed inwardly before saying, "Zack doesn't believe in my strength. Unless I defeat her. He won't listen to my words."

Everyone remained silent for a moment.

The female warrior replied, "Let's ask our faction head."

Hearing that Vina nodded her head. Then the group immediately left the place. But the warrior walking by heard their conversation.

It's too interesting not to listen. On top of that, Vina is a famous warrior in the academy. Her actions would attract attention from people.

Soon the information will be posted online. The online site is being flooded with posts about Vina. 

ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm The Gale Faction members are especially trending online. The post also includes the words uttered by Zack Lockwood.

Which soon caught the eyes of other faction members. Quickly the news spread like wildfire. The Flame Faction and The Metal Faction Warrior are surprised by the news.

They have never faced a situation. But this time Zack's words caused many people to take interest in the duel.

They don't know whether Eurice Frye would accept the challenge. She was last seen during a duel between her and Zack Lockwood. So people are certainly curious.

...

Rainwater Faction:

Meanwhile,

Eurice Frye was practicing in her room. But suddenly someone infiltrated her room. The guardian didn't hide his presence. 

Looking at the shadow, she was scared for a moment.

"Who are you?" She asked.

"Eurice Frye, the dean, has issued a summon. You should go and meet the dean right now," The guardian left the room after conveying the message.

When the shadow disappeared just like that. Eurice Frye petrified on the spot. For a second, she thought her crimes were exposed.

"No"

"I'm safe," She mumbled under her breath.

If her crimes were exposed, then the treatment would have been different. Then the dean must be calling her for some other issue.

She remembered not picking up the calls of Elder Alice. There is a possibility that this might work for her. 

Finally, she can't pretend for too long. After sighing, she decides to meet her. Who knows the shadow might come back again.

On the other hand, Alice Brown was anxious. She heard the words of the dean. But she can't maintain her calmness. 

Even after coming back here, she couldn't help but think about Eurice Frye.

"Elder"

"Elder"

When she was lost in her thoughts. She heard someone calling her. The next moment, she returned to reality and walked out of her room. 

Then she saw one of her students was waiting for her outside.

"What happened?" She asked, looking at the female warrior.

"Elder, Eurice is out. I saw her entering the office building," The female warrior replied.

Hearing that Alice's complexion turned better. She finally let out a sigh of relief. She suddenly felt a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulder.

"Good, you can go now" She waved her hand.

But the female warrior showed some hesitation.

Alice saw through her thoughts.

She asked, "What happened?" 

"Is there something else to report?" 

The female warrior nodded her head before replying, "Elder, someone from the Gale Faction wants to challenge Eurice Frye."

"What?" A hint of surprise flashes in her eyes. Eurice was out just now. The information is sure to travel fast. She felt incredible.

She asked, "Who wants to challenge her?" 

"Vina Potkins," The female warrior replied.

Alice Brown's eyes flickered.

"That girl. She is out as well," She said to herself.

She shook her head and said, "Everything depends on Eurice's choice. I won't force her."

She thinks Zack's win had hit her head. Otherwise, there is no reason for Eurice to lock herself in the room.

Then she let the female warrior go.

Dean office:

Several minutes later,

Eurice walked into the room. Dean Rebecca noticed her presence and ordered her to sit.

Rebecca began to observe her from head to toe. A quick gleam flashes in her eyes. She finds the pressure on her body stronger than before. 

Likely, she was practicing in her room the whole time. But that doesn't explain her strange behavior.

She asked, "Eurice, you are acting weird lately."

"Why didn't you answer the call of Elder Alice?"

Eurice Frye's heart was in turmoil. She was right. Elder Alice reported her to the dean. But fortunately, it was not about the crime.

"Dean, I planned to improve my strength before meeting her. She must have been disappointed by my defeat," Eurice replied.

She told a lie. But Rebecca didn't make any judgment. She wanted to check on her earlier. Now that she looks alright. 

Rebecca doesn't want to extend the conversation anymore. 

"Did you meet Elder Alice?" She asked.

Eurice Frye was stunned for a second before answering, "No, dean. I came here directly after receiving the message."

A quick gleam flashes in Rebecca's eyes. Her intuition tells her something is not right. But she couldn't guess what it was.

She replied, "Alright, you can leave. But visit Alice before going to your dorm."

Hearing that Eurice left the room. After walking out of the room, she felt a sigh of relief. It's not easy to fool the dean.

But fortunately, the meeting went well. Then she thought about Alice Brown. She thinks it's better to see her before people find it suspicious. 

Earlier, she wanted to run away from the academy. Now there is a good chance. She can pick up a mission and disappear for a long time.

Before that, she has to convince Elder Alice as well.

Shortly after, she came to Elder Alice's place. Where the RainWater Faction Head resides. 

To her surprise, Alice was waiting outside her house. When she saw someone entering her area.

She looked ahead and saw Eurice coming towards her. Alice absorbed the change in facial expression of Eurice. There is no sort of remorse or sadness. 

She remembered Eurice was not like this before. Can a single defeat make her like this? Alice frowned.

Something is not right. When Eurice came closer to her.

"Teacher," She greeted.

Alice turned to normal and quickly recovered her expression. 

"What happened to you?"

"Usually, I get a message from you before your retreat. This time nothing like that had happened"

Alice's words reached Eurice's ears. How to tell? Eurice was scared at that time. She didn't know how Zack had survived the poison.

She had stayed in the room in fear of Zack Lockwood. Even now she doesn't want to confront him. 

"Eurice?"

Hearing her name, Eurice reagins her clarity in thoughts. 

She replied," Teacher, I had planned to improve my strength before seeing you. Zack's strength opened my eyes."

"So I made myself not to meet others before getting stronger."

Alice's eyes flickered. Eurice's words are in line with her thoughts. She suspected Eurice's behavior was related to Zack Lockwood. 

She has a vague feeling in her heart. But she wasn't able to pinpoint what it was.action

"What are you going to do now?" She asked back.

"I'm going to raise my strength. Then I'll request Zack Lockwood for another duel," Eurice said with a smile. 

But she didn't know that she had made a grave mistake this time.

"Oh, it is. Then you should defeat someone else first," Alice replied. She felt the Gale faction warrior's challenge came at the right time.

Eurice widened her eyes in surprise. Before she could speak.

Alice said, "Vina Potkins expressed her interest to fight against you. You should go and meet her and set the date for the challenge."

"There will be an internal competition in a few days. You should make preparations for that as well."

"Internal competition?" Eruice doesn't know how to react for a moment. Alice's words made her speechless. 

She knows Vina Potkins. Vina Potkins has similar strengths to her. Not only that she was one of the talented warriors in her faction.

But what's with the Academy's internal competition? 

Alice saw through her thoughts. But she doesn't want to explain right now. 

"You can leave now," She said to Eurice.

Eurice left the place with a blank expression on her face. She thinks a lot of things happened during her absence.

She decides to find someone to update her.

Meanwhile,

Alice frowned. She found no truth behind Eurice's words. The more Eurice opens her mouth. She feels more wrong. Like she had come with preparation.

This duel challenge might reveal some information.

Last duel, she noticed some weirdness. She decides to watch the duel closer this time.
