Child from the Dungeon - Chapter 245: Volume 5 Opening Chapter: As the Tournament Goes
Chapter 245: Volume 5 Opening Chapter: As the Tournament Goes
( After some time. )
[ Elysium Haven Country Capital, Eliopolis, Elisio Castle ]
The King of the Country is busy for the ‘Tournament’ that will come in due time.
” The ‘Elysium Haven Academies National Mage Tournament’ semifinal is near… ”
” With this, after the Magic Academies shows how much their magic has grown after the last Tournament, we will see which one is the best. ” said the king, sitting on his throne as his staff informed him about the Tournament’s development.
” From around 333 academies in the country, after some preliminaries… ”
” Only five academies, stand at the top, my Liege, some of its names might not surprise you. ”
” One of them is the ‘Arc Magus Academy’, I presume… ” said the King which the staff around him nodded.
” That place is home to powerful Royal Kids who were born with great magic, gifted thanks to their ancestors. ”
” Besides, learning from some people about that place, I knew that place only offered the greatest of their offer, thus, the highest of standards for their entry, even for Royals. ”
” But despite the academic teachings, none would reach the education offered to those who were descended from the Throne, so no need to think a lot about that place, next! ”
” Tell me about the other ones! ” The King orders the staff to tell him more about the other academies that have been selected above all others.
” There is the ‘Half-Blood Academia’ for the mixed parentage students, those whose parents are Royals, marrying a Commoner or perhaps other ‘Allying’ Sentient Species like the Dwarves, and others. ”
” Not the Elves, for now…, I thought the Richter House’s Royal Knight Commander reports told that Draven already dealt with those guys… ”
” Hmph…, vigilantes…, next! ” the King interrupts, remembering that no Elves had come out from the Universal Gates lately.
” The other one is the ‘Elite Nurturing Academy’, you know about this one, My Liege… ” the staff tells him.
” Ah, the Academy that nurtures middle and high-class commoner kids…, using their money, magic, and mastery over science and technology. ”
” I heard they decided to reject the Country’s Curriculum, doing whatever they can to pay us to execute their experimental curriculum, a bold decision. ”
” They must be doing this to win this Tournament, for I had the decency to think they want to prove their curriculum is the future of Elysium Haven’s Magic Academies. ” the King predicted with his wisdom and instinct, already dealing with the school principal before.
” I need to keep more eyes on that one, for I still have doubts about the curriculum that comes in with rigorous experimentation for children below 18. ” the King sighs, realizing how ambitious people could become, even the staff nods upon hearing it.
” I believe there are two left to be told, aren’t there? ” the King asks.
” Indeed, Your Majesty, My Liege… ”
” After that one, there’s also the ‘Amalgam Community Academy’, the Academy brought by the Easterion Conglomerate and now led by an Easterion Hunter, Agniz Resha from the Warblade Guild. ”
” An academy for mostly the ‘Easterion’ Continent immigrants, who came here because of the ‘Chimera’ problem there. ” said the staff.
” Easterion still had the monstrous problem there, didn’t they? ”
” I thought there is some ‘Union’ that works to deal with those things? ” the King asks the staff but they tell him that there haven’t been any messages from the Mages and Knights who were massively sent to the regions many years ago.
” It has been a hundred years after the Previous King sent them to explore the East, None of them had returned or perhaps given us some news after the said time. ”
” My…, worst guess, they’re… ”
” You don’t have to say it, I know it wouldn’t matter anymore. ”
” Those Armadas sent towards the East, it was such a ruse, it made Elysium Haven almost get bankrupt to prepare the exploration. ”
” A mistake that my predecessor had doomed us with if not for me to return things greatly again. ”
” The only thing those Armada did good is to import some refugees from the East using some of their boats, some of them are promised a better life in Elysium Haven, a pity… ” said the King, sighing as he ordered the staff to tell him the last one.
“Last but not least, is the ‘Prodigy Center Academy’, the academy whose purpose is only to nurture their students’ magic to their peak, no matter the background. ”
” This academy had also been skyrocketed lately after the Draven incident with the Invading Elves, as well as this place is the place for someone that Your Majesty might’ve noticed. ”
” Like the ‘Child From the Dungeon’, the adopted child from the Richter House and… ”
” The Prodigal Son of the Calibur House… ” said the staff to the King, as he quickly caught what the staff meant.
” Ah, those two kids… ”
” I’ve heard so much about them, especially the Calibur son. ”
” Back then, I even tried to match him with my daughter, my princess, but she rejected it for whatever reason. ”
” As a father, I can’t blame her… ” the King tells about it.
” But aside from that one, the ‘Child From the Dungeon’ is something that had me curious for some time, even my princess herself. ”
” The last time we met him, he was just like when he came out from the Dungeon a Pitch-Black little boy that looks anything but a human… ”
” But now, he somehow had human looks, perhaps a sign of him adapting to our society…? ” the King takes a wild guess.
” Hmph! Guess we’ll have to see it in the Tournament, shall we…? ”
” ‘Child From the Dungeon’, we’ll meet again. ” said the King as unknown to him, another person taking the words and absorbing them into her ears, the person who was spying on him from another side of the place.
” The ‘Child From The Dungeon’, huh? ” a young lady, spied on the King, followed by some guards and handmaidens as she walked around the palace.
” Ah, the Richter House’s adopted grandson, I remember him… ”
” So he will be participating, isn’t he? fufu… ” said the young lady, chuckling and smirking because of it.
” If it’s true that there’s five academy that managed to land this far then usually, two of them had to compete against each other since the Tournament only allowed four academies for the Semi-Finals. ”
” Wonder which two that will be chosen to fight by my Father? ” the young lady, the princess of Elysium Haven asked herself as she went into the Palace’s Garden, chuckling happily.

( Meanwhile. )
[ Elysium Haven Country Capital, Eliopolis, Elio Stadium ]
” LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! ”
” AFTER THE RIGOUROUS PRELIMINARIES, THE ‘ELYSIUM HAVEN ACADEMIES NATIONAL MAGE TOURNAMENT’ HAS REACH THE SEMIFINALS, AFTER THE ‘GREAT BATTLE ROYALE’ BETWEEN SCHOOLS! ”
” NOW, THERE ARE ONLY FIVE ACADEMIES LEFT TO COMPETE, YET THE TOURNAMENT ONLY ALLOWED FOUR ACADEMIES IN THE SEMIFINALS! ”
” SO, AFTER SOME POLL, THE ELYSIUM HAVEN KINGDOM HAS CONCLUDED THAT…! ”
” THE ACADEMY THAT WILL BATTLE FOR THE RIGHTS OF THE SEMIFINALS! ”
” IS…! ” the voice followed by drumming beats.
” THE ‘AMALGAM COMMUNITY ACADEMY’ VS…! ”
” THE ‘PRODIGY CENTER ACADEMY’!!! ” said the announcer which made the whole stadium cheered.
” Go out there, Donovan! ” Duncan, the great S-Rank Hunter, cheered Donovan, his beloved son as he came out with his team, consisting of three chosen people from the last surviving members of their academy representatives.
” It seems my plan worked… ” Donovan tells Carlos and Carol.
[ Contestant: Donovan Richter Grimshaw ]
[ Academy: Prodigy Center Academy ]
” Of course, your hide & seek strategy saved us many strength as well countless victories… ” Carol, his partner.
[ Contestant: Carol Olivia Bright ]
[ Academy: Prodigy Center Academy ]
” After all, that damn Battle Royale was a chaotic one, to think the Tournament decided to throw all contestants to battle in one swoop and decide to advance those who survived. ”
” Yeah, it was… ” said Carlos, the team’s leader and the top choice for the team thanks to his ‘Star Magic’.
[ Contestant: Carlos Antaris Calibur ]
[ Academy: Prodigy Center Academy ]
” If it weren’t for your calculations, my energies would be more wasted before even surviving that Battle Royale… ” Carlos says while suddenly seeing his father, Arthur Calibur from afar.
” Thank you, Donovan… ” Carlos tells him as the trio enters the stage, ready to face their next opponent.
” Remember, whatever you do, use your ace magics wisely… ” Donovan reminds his companions.
” Since this is a tournament, our enemy will use any way to gain an advantage over us, even analyzing our moves… ” Donovan reminds them as their opponent from the ‘Amalgam Community Academy’ comes.
” Well, it seems we will face some notable faces…! ” said one of the opponents.
[ Contestant: Orion Oniro ]
[ Academy: Amalgam Community Academy ]
” This time, you’ll be facing us, you majorities! ”
[ Contestant: Oinor Oniro ]
[ Academy: Amalgam Community Academy ]
” You will lose to the great Easterion Immigrants could offer, the ‘Amalgam Community Academy’s Oniro Brothers! ”
[ Contestant: Onori Oniro ]
[ Academy: Amalgam Community Academy ]
The Oniro brothers rub both of their palms, projecting some fiery magic as well as some Magic Circle that looks different than the usual Magic Circle in Westerios.
” It’s some ‘Easterion’ Continent Mysticism*…, a different kind of Magic. ” Donovan tells his companions, telling them one of his father’s S-Rank Hunter friends is from there, not to mention she’s one of the Academy’s founders nonetheless.
” Some days before the Tournament, I’ve seen this ability from her, shown in front of my Father for some random things… ”
” I believe the Easterion people had used another energy called ‘Ki’, hence their Mysticism looks so different from the usual Magic powered by Mana. ” Donovan tells them with a low tone, which his companions can hear, as the announcer still gives some opening.
” We have to be careful, I’m sorry if I didn’t do much research on the Easterion Arts before the tournament. ” Donovan apologizes.
” No need to worry… ” Olivia replied.
” I know some of their techniques, already learned them from some trade secrets among conglomerate children. ” Olivia says, as the announcer finally gives them the sign, for them to start battling for the sake of their academies, which the trio of each academy starts by bringing out what they’ve got.

Hello, KJVZeanso here.
After some time of Hiatus of this Webnovel and focusing on my primary Webnovel ‘I Level Up To Fight The Gods’ and my New Webnovel ‘Tales of The Chimera Master’, please read as well and give some power stones as well. Nnew n0vel chapters are published on n0v/e(lb)i(n.)co/m
Especially you might wanna check ‘Tales of The Chimera Master’, the story is on the Easterion Continent for an unspecific time. But still, it’s an alternative for those who were waiting for this Webnovel for some time.
Fyuh~
I finally had the bravery to publish this chapter after a long time, I’m sorry if you think I’ve already forgotten this Webnovel, but the truth is, I didn’t.
After finally finishing the First Part of ‘I Level Up To Fight The Gods’ Volume 5, I’ve decided to publish new chapters for this Webnovel again.
Volume 5 is about the ‘Elysium Haven Academies National Mage Tournament’, a Tournament that has been teased in Volume 4. Hence, the title of this Volume is the ‘Tournament of Treachery’…
…
Yes, I know the name feels bad.
But it is what it is.
Tournaments are a great place for competition, for those who participate in the tournament and those who interfere in the dark.
So please, be patient for more chapters of this Volume, hope you all could have a great time reading this Webnovel again.
Thank you.
_______________________
Extra:
* ‘Easterion’ Continent Mysticism.
A different kind of Magic Arts, brought by those who came from Easterion to Westerios. Mysticism is different because Easterions had another type of Energy called the ‘Ki’, an innate energy from one’s body that could be cultivated by intense practice by the user, it has a higher effect on the User’s physical Status.
Unlike the Magic of the West, Easterion’s Mysticism techniques had the chance to inflict more illusive damage to the opponent’s body, not just outer damage but also inner damage as the Ki is known to able to penetrate and wound the things within.
But their effects are not as bombastic and destructive as the Magic generated from Mana, which could siphon great power from the nature around them for their support, Ki Users can’t do that.
Unless…, they’re able to have Mana and Ki simultaneously like these Oniro Brothers who were already a fifth-generation immigrant descendant in Elysium Haven.
