Chapter 32 - 31) Bloody Mage

Miss Linda went to her cabin after she showed Benjamin around the academy. Miss Linda greeted the other teachers on the way and inquired about the students they chose. She finally went to her cabin and started organising the files of the new students she recruited.

Although the Entrance exams were conducted on the same day they were held 2 hours apart in cities near the goblin city. This allowed the Scouts who finished watching one of the exams to go to the next city near them and scout students there.

Small academies have limited scouts so this is convenient for them. However large academies like Roaring Lions Academy choose to send the scouts to 3 or 4 cities near the city designated to them to reduce the number of teachers that leave for scouts duty.

When she started filing her first recruit Benjamin's details she heard students outside shout " I heard some seniors chose to bully this year's number 1 freshman. Let's go see the fight ".

Miss Linda stopped her work, rushed downstairs and asked the students to explain. One girl said, " The lightning Rhino party went to fight Freshman rank 1 saying he cheated to become rank 1 ". Miss Linda rushed to Benjamin's mansion.

Miss Linda thought that if Benjamin gets unnecessarily bullied then he might choose to leave the Academy by returning all the rewards. Benjamin better be okay at least for that party's sake is what was on her mind.

When she reached Benjamin's mansion there was a crowd surrounding the front. She went to the front to see Benjamin standing completely fine.

The members of the Rhino Lightning party were kneeling and apologising to Benjamin. The areas surrounding the 3 were fully drenched in blood. Miss Linda asked Benjamin " Wha-what really happened here? ".

I healed the 3 seniors with healing Sanctuary and kept hitting them with spells until they were low on health again. I used fireball which almost reduced their health to zero. Since my healing sanctuary was on cooldown I was thinking of letting them go but god said No.

Fortune's favor activated causing all of my skills on cooldown to reset. I used Healing Sanctuary again and kept on hitting them with spells and they started to kneel and apologise to me. During this time I did not notice the fact that a huge crowd formed around my entrance.

I was busy focusing on various ways to use my spells on them and trying out different combos to see how much damage they dealt. Miss Linda came out from the crowd and asked me " What happened here? Why is there blood on the ground? ". Like any normal person, I told them what 'happened'(more sarcasm)here.

I said " I was chilling inside the mansion and they threw a rock through my window. I asked them why they did it and they said that they thought I used some cheat to get first place and wanted to test my skills in combat. So I beat them up. They still couldn't believe I was ranked first place globally so I healed them and beat them again which led to this situation. RIGHT GUYS? ".

I looked at them with a smile on my face and they understood that if they tried anything they were going to get beat up in the future. They nodded their head in fear and Miss Linda angrily said " Really? Then Klaus, Travis, and Krios GO TO MY CABIN ". They left with tears in their eye. Miss Linda asked the crowd to leave.

She said, " Upperclassmen are not allowed to fight underclassmen unofficially. Those 3 will be punished severely and you will probably receive some compensation ". I nodded my head and went for a walk around the academy. I had nothing left to do since I could only use the other buildings after I finished the freshman competition tomorrow and got my ID.

News travels fast and people were avoiding me. One of them said, " It's him right? The one who beat up the seniors and left them half dead and kept hitting them after healing them". "Yeah it's him quick let's get away from the Bloody mage. We don't know what he will do to us" said another. Seriously? Bloody Mage is the title I got after everything that happened? Maybe I slightly overdid it.

I felt like someone was watching me from behind. I turned around to see the Dragonborn girl hiding in a corner and watching me. She hid after I turned around. I blinked in front of her and asked " Why are you following me now? "
