Everyone in the club room was astonished with the spar happening below. A fight between the anomaly mage and one of the strongest three star mage. The club was quiet and was watching the spar closely until Iode gave Sylvester a punch to the face.
Sylvester fell to the ground head first. "Ouch"!!! He cried out holding his nose on the floor.
The audience gasps and began to murmur among themselves. "he punched Sylvester in his face, what a daring attitude".
"What kind of mage uses physical brawl, it seems the weaponry art club is getting to his head".
"Oh, I'm so sorry". Iode quickly ran towards Sylvester and apologised. Sylvester was still on the floor holding onto his nose. The tutor quickly went to the arena and called the spar off.
She used healing magic to relief his pain.
"You can both go to your seat's". The tutor said. She grabbed Sylvester by the shoulder and said.
"Are you alright"?
"Yes I am, thanks". Sylvester replied. The tutor was surprised, she expected Sylvester to look down and angry and swear vengeance like a typical noble and his usual attitude.
"You seem quite fine with what happened that's so unusual of you". the tutor asked.
"Yeah, the fight was worth it, Jaen". Sylvester replied. Jaen one of the club tutors now has even more reason to know more about this Iode boy. First, she assumed he is an advanced level mage and already has a lot of questions for that, now he seems to have an influence on Sylvester.
Jaen is from a noble household of the Croce family and are from the same region as the Inglid family. So it was natural for them to know each other.
Iode went to his seat and was quite perplexed with his own strength to go toe to toe against a three star mage. Hector had told him once that he is quite strong for a one star mage.
"Why did you punch him, you could have just overpowered him with magic alone". Anna asked.
"Really? But I just wanted to try something different, that's it". Iode replied.
Hector looked at Iode who was trying to save face, he knew the reason Iode resulted to punching and Iode knew Hector knows.
Should the spar continue, Sylvester would overpower him eventually so he had to use such underhanded trick because no wizard have quick reaction, not even the high level mages.
Jaen continued the session and called other people to spar. After the club activity had ended, Iode tried to sneak out of the club room but Anna's hawk eyes wouldn't give him that chance, but he was happy he's not alone, Hector is here with him.
"Would you like to eat lunch"? Anna asked.
"Uhm". Iode doesn't know what to say he looked at Hector for help but he was given a thumbs up to accept. Iode looked dissatisfied with that answer.
"Hey, Iode, please do you have a minute". Someone called unto him, it was Sylvester. Salvation has come, he quickly responded but why would a noble call him and even knows his name.
Sylvester was his opponent in the spar, is he trying to humiliate him after failing to do so in the spar? Is he trying to seek vengeance for the punch? Iode could think that much.
"Yes". Iode replied. "I'm sorry for the punch earlier". Iode apologized again.
"No worries, it already gone, i just wanted to ask if you have any suggestions, any comments about my performance in our spar". Sylvester said.
"You are asking me that"? Iode asked. Sylvester nodded.
"Is this a dream or a prank, why is someone from a noble household asking me that, and he's a three star mage". Iode thought and he couldn't even hide his bewilderment.
Iode regained his composture, he put his hands in his chin and said,
"in our little spar, you were quite good, and flexible to quickly change different spells, but you are easy to read, that's how i was able give you that last punch. And also your spell reaction seems slow ".
"Really? I'll work on that ". Sylvester said. Both him and Iode looked to their side and saw the complicated look on both Hector and Anna's face.
"Is he really the Sylvester we heard of, like he is not all fussed up seeking vengeance or something like that ". Anna said
"Yeah, it weird that he was fine with it in the first place now he's seeking advise from the person who beat him, he is now even super weird ". Hector said.
An anger mark was seen in Sylvester's face "you know i can hear you right ".
"Not like they are wrong ". A voice said coming behind Hector and Anna.
"This was where you are i was searching for you ". Angelica said.
"Argh ". Sylvester showed his displeasure in an instant.
"Ha, you must be Iode, the anomaly mage, the wizard puncher, that punch you gave Sylvester was so satisfying ". Angelica said to Iode.
"Iode? What's happening, why are these nobles coming to see you, first Anna, then Sylvester now Angelica"? Hector looked at Iode with a raised eyebrow and he responded shaking his hand "I have no idea either" like they were talking telepathically.
"Hey Iode if you are less busy, why don't we lunch together". Angelica said.
"He was going with..." Anna was about to lash back at Angelica but was intercepted by Jaen.
"Hey you", she pointed and walked towards Iode. "are you less busy i want to see you ".
None of the four students could butt in as it is a third Year student. They could only express their dissatisfaction through their gazes.
It seems Hector was counting the nobles who came to Iode and for some reason telepathically sending them to Iode.
"What's with today ". Iode thought.
