The atmosphere in the hall immediately became quite tense. Earlton was an extremely esteemed figure in the field of mathematics here in the Roth Empire, and his position was only below that of Erma and Leeroy. Setting official titles aside and speaking from a scholarly perspective alone, even Byron ranked below him.
He was now threatening retirement and putting his entire career on the line to crush Mag, and that was a clear indication of his confidence.
Even though Mag's words were quite sharp, upon careful analysis, they appeared to be quite exaggerated. After all, could a child that was barely out of their infancy really be able to win against the best mathematicians of the Roth Empire?
Earlton's actions seemed to be quite rash and reckless, but he was actually taking a calculated risk.
