My Maids are All Antagonists Novel! - Chapter 98
Chapter 98: The Secrets of the Trial Tower
Autumn was shocked when she saw the small crystal tower in Ofia’s hand.
Ofia had definitely used spatial magic in front of her just now!
However, she did not sense any spatial fluctuations at all.
Her understanding of spatial magic was simply too terrifying!
Autumn stared at Ofia with her eyes wide open, as if she wanted to see the traces of her usage of a spatial ring.
However, she failed.
There were no fluctuations of spatial rings or spatial items on Ofia’s hands or body.
“Stop looking. This is the power of the Laws. You won’t be able to see anything while in my Law domain.”
Ofia calmly explained after she saw Autumn busying herself with trying to find traces of her spatial magic.
Law?
Domain?
This was the first time Autumn had come into contact with something new after entering Tier 9.
In the past, she had never understood this.
“With your Tier 9 strength, someone will explain it to you.”
This thing was very exquisite. Knowing that Autumn was from the demon world, someone would naturally explain the path after Tier 9 to her.
It was just that she hadn’t returned yet, so she lacked this knowledge.
Thus, after a brief explanation, Ofia directly skipped over it.
Pointing at the tower-shaped magic relic in her hand, she said.
“This is our Academy’s Trial Tower.”
Autumn put away her questions for the time being and looked at the thing that the Dean was pointing at.
It was crystal clear, and its surface was close to being transparent. Only the occasional glow of spells indicated that there was something here.
If one didn’t look carefully, they definitely wouldn’t be able to see that there was something here.
“I didn’t expect the magic relic to be so small. It looks quite exquisite.”
Ofia then put the magic relic away. With a casual wave to the side, the Trial Tower disappeared again.
“You are aware that our Academy is able to become one of the top Magic Academies because of the existence of the Trial Tower. Then do you know why the three other Magic Academies can be called the Four Great Magic Academies together with us?”
As if she was wanted to test Autumn, Ofia asked a question.
“Because the other parties’ students are very outstanding?”
Ofia shook her head silently.
There were no outstanding students who would come out of nowhere, so each Academy had to be even more outstanding. Otherwise, their students would have been absorbed by the other schools long ago.
Seeing that Ofia did not speak, Autumn thought for a moment and continued.
“Is it because they have Saint-rank powerhouses?”
Although it was very difficult to advance to the Saint-rank, it was not as if no one had advanced to the Saint-rank.
On the continent, it was not only the four top-tier Magic Academies that had Saint-ranks.
Therefore, Autumn still could not answer.
Autumn gave up directly.
“Dean, in the past, I have spent all my time on cultivating and combat. I swear! This time, when I go back, I will definitely go to the magic library and learn more about this aspect!”
Autumn stretched out three fingers and raised them high, her expression very serious.
Seeing that Autumn had directly given up, Ofia also sighed.
This child’s talent in cultivation and combat was very good, but she had fallen back quite a lot on her culture and knowledge.
“Because other than the one in our Academy, there are three other magic relics like this.”
Ofia explained calmly.
There are three other magic relics like this?
This isn’t a complete one?
Autumn was a little surprised.
There are actually three more such powerful magic relics other than the one we have?
Wait a moment!
Could it be that the other three are corresponding to the other three Magic Academies!
Although Autumn was lagging behind in terms of culture and knowledge, she had also sparred with students from other Academies.
She knew that the other party also had something like the Trial Tower, which was only open to students in the respective Academies, but at that time, Autumn had always felt that the Trial Tower of her own Academy was the most powerful.
She had not expected that the Trial Towers of the other Academies were actually also derived from magic relics.
Magic relics were really magical. They had actually nurtured four top-notch Magic Academies in one go.
But what did this have to do with the trials of the Four Great Magic Academies?
Autumn still did not understand.
“These are things that only you instructors above Tier 9 will know. The average students will only know that each Academy has a Trial Tower.”
Ofia’s words could be considered to have solved Autumn’s doubts.
Autumn finally understood.
But she still did not understand. What was there to hide? Why could only the instructors above Tier 9 know?
What Ofia said next completely shocked Autumn.
“Actually, these four magic relics are not complete. The true form of the magic relic can only be obtained by combining the four magic relics together. However, when we initially obtained the magic relics, no one was willing to let others use theirs, but the benefits of the complete magic relic were too great. Therefore, we agreed that every time we held the trials of the Four Great Magic Academies, we would choose the most outstanding young experts from our own Academies to participate in the trials. After the trials end, the team that wins will have a chance to use the complete magic relic alone.”
Incomplete.
Once every twenty years.
Authority to use alone.
This was the first time Autumn had heard this information, and she felt that her brain was unable to react in time.
The main reason was that this information could be considered as the secret of the four great Magic Academies, and this was the first time she knew about it.
After a short pause for recovery, Autumn asked her question.
“Why is the representative me?”
She was only a 100-year-old child who had just advanced to Tier 9. First of all, she had no experience. Second of all, she had never undertaken such a thing.
At most, she had some talent in fighting.
Now, the Dean had come looking for her on matters which involved the four great Magic Academies.
She was afraid that she would not be able to carry this matter.
Autumn’s worry was not without reason.
Indeed, for such an important matter, they should find a senior instructor who could convince others and was more experienced to lead the team!
However, Ofia glanced at Autumn indifferently.
“At that time, we had a rule that only young mages who had advanced to Tier 9 within these hundred years could participate. Otherwise, there would be no upper limit if we were to compete in terms of seniority.”
With that said, she did indeed meet this standard.
However, thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be quite a number of such instructors in the academy.
For example, Old Thompson and Leighton, who had been defeated by Thor and Hermione previously.
These two people were also figures that had only become Tier 9 mages in the last hundred years.
Although one of them had been knocked down by Thor in two punches, while the other had been instantly defeated, to be able to become Tier 9 instructors at such a young age, they were undoubtedly geniuses among the geniuses in their respective departments.
Plus, they had also participated in competitions on behalf of the Academy.
It was just that at that time, Autumn was addicted to the Trial Tower and potions.
In addition, she was a transfer student sent from the demon world, thus she had never participated in such a group activity before, and was directly excluded.
There was one point that needed to be made clear, and that was that the trials of the Four Great Magic Academies required teamwork.
A lone wolf would not be able to survive in the trials.
Autumn did not participate, and it was the result of everyone’s discussion.
So logically speaking, this was Autumn’s first time participating in the trials of the Four Great Magic Academies.
She had no experience at all.
