T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World

Chapter 396 Your Majesty, I Want to Report

With only a few days left before the Star Speakers Academy's two-month summer break, most classes have already stopped.

Groups of students lay lazily on the lawn in the front yard, basking in the warm sunshine and imagining the upcoming summer break.

Some independent monks sign up for summer field workshops organized by their mentors to earn credits, gain recognition, and incidentally earn some money to help support their parents.

Of course, going to the surrounding cities and states to find suitable commissions is also a good option, as those from well-known universities in the capital have an advantage in terms of being easily accepted.

Wealthy aristocratic children often organize grand summer adventure activities.

Young people always have strange and unrealistic fantasies about adventurers, and spending an entire summer grinding for an Adventurer's Guild certificate is an annual tradition.

Mint had also used it when she was in school, so when she returned to the school and heard that a junior student who looked like a leader was trying to win over the Wild Mage, she suddenly had a strange feeling of "He's back, everyone's back".

The young students stared wide-eyed with curiosity. Although the academy was semi-open and outsiders could visit, what was going on with this huge crowd?

I haven't heard of any activities organized by the college.

"Isn't that Renee?"

"It flies aggressively, skimming close to the ground."

"It looks like Mint is next to her."

The students on the front lawn looked at each other, and suddenly became restless.

Although it's unclear why these two expert players, who just created tutorial materials, came here, they seem to be having some fun!

Ordinary people can only enter the front yard, but they are students, so they can eat the freshest melons.

The college's communication system relayed the message to the professors' offices, who were quite surprised and felt a little guilty upon hearing the two names.

The instructors, who were busy in the workshop, were also drawn by the news and came to the spacious courtyard of the teaching area.

At that moment, Mint had just poured a bottle of Fire Element Molotov cocktail onto the huge "Looking Up at the Stars" stone monument in the teaching area.

The fire raged, and the gray-black stone tablet crackled under the high temperature, eliciting gasps from the students who had followed and were waiting to see what was happening.

"Mint, what are you doing!"

The instructors reprimanded him one after another. Mint, with a cold face, silently added another bottle of elemental potion, causing cracks to quickly spread across the surface of the hard stone tablet.

"The person who gave me the witch's hat said that the Star Whisperer is a very romantic place, and its first director was the most famous stargazer in Anna's history."

“Stargazing didn’t improve his magic, but he enjoyed it from childhood to adulthood. Before he died, he specifically instructed his descendants that his tombstone should not have lengthy titles or prefixes, but simply state that he was a stargazer.”

"If one day a magician becomes powerful enough to unravel the mysteries of magic, please let him take a look at the vast sea of ​​stars."

"Not on the ground, but in the sky."

“You are insulting him by citing his deeds.”

This dean, who left behind a wealth of astronomical data, spent his entire life striving to focus his gaze on the starry sky, a realm untouched by countless magicians, and to converse with the myriad stars in his own way.

Romance has become a style that other academies admire and talk about.

It was this romance that drew the dawn redwood to dream of one day visiting this college that might be blessed by the stars.

The reality was far different from what she had seen.

The romantic soul has long since vanished with time, leaving behind only a decaying form and a superficial, pretentious, and stiff tribute.

Seeing the inscription "Looking Up at the Stars" written by the current dean again is quite amusing.

When her tutor annoyed her, Mint would pass by the teaching area again and again, looking at the huge stone tablet, and she would think, "It would be really interesting if we could blow this up."

Finally, I can practice it myself.

It's like holding a grand bonfire party on campus.

Mint grinned when she caught sight of the ashen-faced potion master Vanaree in the crowd.

"When they forced me to drop out of school, they probably never imagined this day would come, right?"

"He's just a wild mage. No matter how talented he is, without the resources to realize it, how much can he achieve?"

"Everyone, is that what you all think?"

Mint inhaled deeply, releasing all the pent-up frustration in her heart.

“Vanare, do you remember what you said?”

“'You are just one of many unrealized talents among many magicians, indulging in unrealistic dreams of instant fame. Sooner or later, reality will make you realize that you are nothing.'”

"Since you admire Renee so much and believe she has a noble lineage, what about me, who defeated her?"

Being called out by name in public, Vanarei felt his blood boil and his chest tighten.

"Why don't you speak?"

"Didn't you say I was very sharp-tongued when you accused me of talking back?"

"Speak, speak, speak!"

Mint wasn't as strong as people imagined. She just had a habit of hiding all her grievances in a corner where no one could see her, deceiving herself into believing that it was nothing serious.

She toiled away as a shrewd businesswoman, maintaining the facade of still being in the academy; only she knew the hardships and exhaustion she endured.

I could have been honest, but I chose to stubbornly endure it.

That's just how Mint is; she's stubborn to the core.

They seem indifferent, but it's just that the time hasn't come yet for them to care.

Her pent-up frustration was released incessantly; her eyes reddened, and her voice became shrill. If it weren't for her recent victory over Renee, which had made her image so memorable, some might have mistaken her for a disrespectful villain.

Vanaree couldn't escape her relentless questioning and coughed as he spoke.

"As a mentor, if you speak too harshly during education, it is inevitable that students will misunderstand you."

“I don’t think it was a misunderstanding. You have an extremely serious prejudice and discrimination against Mint. You have made things difficult for Mint in the potions subject more than once, and at one point you even demanded that Mint listen in outside the classroom before you would continue to teach, forcing the whole class to be hostile to Mint.”

Vanaree's smooth talk was exposed by Renee's words.

The night Mint rose to fame, Anna learned of the entanglement between Renee and Mint, whose rivalry and discord during their school days were well-known.

The arch-rival defended Mint, which greatly increased its credibility.

Vanaret's aged face finally revealed an unavoidable sense of embarrassment.

In the worst-case scenario he had envisioned, there was no possibility that both of them would stand against him.

The students at the academy have now understood the situation.

Students came to settle scores with their advisor, and now it was impossible to stay out of it.

“Since you’ve declared my potion-making a mediocre skill, I’m going to challenge you to a potion contest!” Peppermint clenched her fist. “You decide how we’ll compete.”

Vanaree's embarrassment turned into astonishment, and then anger.

"I won't compete."

"Alright, then I'll have a real combat match with you."

With that, Mint leaped up and flashed to Vanaree's side.

Without warning, he delivered a powerful punch to Vanaree's chest and abdomen.

In just one moment, he was bent over like a shrimp, kneeling on the ground and gagging incessantly.

No one expected things to unfold this way, and when they tried to stop them, Renee stood in front of all the mentors.

The spatial magic flickered with a dangerous, eerie light, distorting the surrounding space and exuding a frenzied magical power.

There were mentors of rank 8 present, but fighting Renee could mean incurring the wrath of the Grion family, which made them hesitate.

Vanaree was a master of potions, so how could he possibly be a match for Mint? His counterattacks were weak and ineffective, and Mint twisted his arm out of place and kicked him to the ground.

With his joints dislocated, he shouted in shame and indignation under the gaze of countless trainees.

"I want to report this to His Majesty! I want to report this to His Majesty!"

"Sue His Majesty?" Mint sneered. "When I was bullied by Renee's henchmen, I went to you mentors, did you do anything about it?"

"Why are you thinking of complaining when you're being beaten up on the ground? I suggest you look for your own problems first. Why am I only hitting you?"

As she spoke, Mint kicked Vanaree in the stomach again.

After kicking, he immediately took out a healing potion and drank it to aid in healing, then continued to repeat the previous operation.

Vivid images of torture were presented to everyone.

“Rene, whether Vanaree is right or wrong, he is an instructor at the academy. He can be punished, but he cannot be humiliated. You are colluding with him!”

Seeing that Renee was determined to stop them, things were getting out of control, and the magic that everyone was unwilling to use began to stir.

If this continues, even if the reputation of the Star Speaker Academy isn't ruined by the previous competition, it will be shattered by Mint's punches.

If the academy's instructors are publicly humiliated and no one among the Star Speakers stops the violence, then their instructors' authority will be completely destroyed!

"I advise you not to make a move. If you do, you won't be able to beat me, and you'll lose face."

Renee's confident smile was chilling.

Not everyone is like Mint; experience spatial magic in battle and master counter-attack techniques.

Facing multiple opponents alone, if things go wrong and Renee manages to take down several of them in the chaos, even if you ultimately win, you'll only lose face more.

From the moment Mint and Renee stormed into the academy, they seemed to have stumbled into a dead end.

A group of people stood by the boundary between the real and virtual worlds, arms crossed, watching.

Although they seem to be absent, they might disrupt things immediately if the mentors intervene.

Renee is a member of the Grelian family; she cannot be touched.

Mint became famous in Anna, attracting the attention of countless dignitaries, and became fearless.

The boundary between the virtual and the real is the most troublesome of all, a plague that the entire Anna aristocratic circle avoids.

The Star Speaker Academy has inadvertently provoked three powerful figures who can now roam freely in the capital. They are caught in a dilemma: to make a move or not to make a move.

Taking action would result in humiliation, while inaction would lead to a slow death.

"Too deceiving!"

At the command, the mentors present still chose to take action.

Renee vanished instantly, the unhealed spatial rift grazing the outstretched fingers of a female instructor in the distance, three fingers falling to the ground with a thud.

The painful screams startled the students watching from behind, who quickly retreated.

This is completely different from the role-playing games in the practical courses at the academy.

Renee did it on purpose. Before setting off, Mint had told her the name of the mentor who had targeted and suppressed her.

It's only natural to stand up for Mint.

The boundary between the real and the virtual world had just come off the field for practice when Squid only managed to knock one instructor away with a single shield strike. The onlookers quickly retreated to both sides, and the inner guards, dressed in black robes and with solemn expressions, rushed in.

"stop!"

Wick took the lead, his magic forming a point in the empty void.

As the gap opened and closed, the spatial blade that Renee had condensed shattered.

Kurien, accompanied by a group of ministers, appeared at the Star Speaker Academy, bringing a brief respite to the chaotic scene.

French Fries gripped the wooden knife he'd brought for this moment: "Sigh, we haven't even started having fun yet, why are you rushing in like this?"

She quietly put away the wooden stick she had specially bought, which resembled a baseball bat—her plan to crack open someone's head was now impossible.

Vanaret was snatched from Mint's hands by the interior guard; his gray hair was stained with blood, but he looked fine.

The mint's ability to bring someone to the brink of death, and its method of maintaining his sanity while committing violence, drove him to the brink of madness.

Upon seeing Kurion arrive in person, he wailed through his gaping mouth, which had been pierced by the beating.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, did you see it all?"

"These are the academy's mentors. Why do they all think that Mint is spoiled and difficult to manage? She is inherently cruel, violent, and vindictive."

"The empire should select the virtuous and capable; only those who possess both excellent character and ability can be called virtuous and capable."

"How can such a crude and barbaric person, no matter how strong, be worthy of being called 'virtuous'!"

"We made the right decision!"
