Chapter 191 - 191. Ancient Civilization – Part A

Everyone returns to class and the girls are allowed to clean themselves before joining the class, the girls took a detour before coming to class. Nytri is in her seat surrounded by her party, they're talking about how successful it went.

Juniper does little jumps in excitement, "I can't believe it! How you lead, it was like you knew exactly where we needed to be!" Ophelia nods her head fervently looking at Nytri with sparkly eyes.

Quentin nods, "Yeah, she was able to pinpoint weaknesses of the orcs and when they'd be vulnerable." Ophelia nods her head fervently with pride.

Nytri scratches the back of her head, "Well, we all put a lot of effort. If you guys weren't that good, it'd be tough to even defeat the goblins." Nytri pats Ophelia's head smiling, "Nodding too much can hurt your neck." She smiles and Ophelia blushes in embarrassment.

Peregrine looks pleased, "Ophelia did wonderful too. Her strengthening spells were a life saver, I wouldn't be able to block the orcs without it." He smiles at Ophelia. Juniper covers her mouth staring at Peregrine's face and Ophelia, she figures something out.

Quentin rubs his chin, "What I don't get is how you can use magic like that. You basically casted the same spell in quick succession like you already had a magic artifact."

"Well," Nytri speaks, "It's something like ene-mana conservation. I learned it in Azuria. It's basically limiting your ene-mana till it's barely enough to start the spell, then you the same ene-mana to cast it. Like mana to make a fireball and the same mana to fire it."

Ophelia is confused, "But isn't reducing the mana going to make the spell fall out?" Ophelia seems to be gaining confidence.

Nytri nods, "Precisely, but there's a way to beat that. You see, when casting a spell. Mana is use to make it and propel the spell, but it also leaves mana behind. In Azuria, we're taught to not waste anything especially mana."

Phifty mumbles in the corner, "Yeah, she basically drilled it into us." Nytri chuckles since no heard him. Phifty is with his friends also talking about their hunt.

Suddenly the group of noble girls barge into the class room and this time's leader is Falshurx princess. Nytri was surprised royalty besides the queen survived but only the females survived. The Falshurx princess points her finger at Nytri, "You commoner! The principal wants to see you," She has a smug grin, "In his office!" That term 'in his office' is of bad, people normally come out with bruises after entering 'his office'. Still Tristan really kept anyone from acting out.

The class starts to murmur, professor Gwyneth gets worried, "What do you mean?" The princess takes a few steps inside with pride, The principal wants to see her for insulting nobility and royalty."

Nytri raises a brow, Ophelia holds Nytri's shirt trembling, "I…I…N.." Nytri pats her on the head, "Don't worry about me, it's probably just a talk." And Nytri's thoughts, "Though why didn't he just call me with Telepathy…. Maybe he doesn't have the skill." she gets up and starts walking to the front of the class, her friends worried.

Professor Gwyneth takes her bag, "I'm coming too." Nytri waves her hands, "No need to worry yourself, it's nothing serious." Professor Gwyneth puts on her bag, "Even so, I'm in charge of this lesson so it's my responsibility."

Nytri has an exasperated face, "But really, there's nothing to worry about." Professor Gwyneth walks briskly to the principal's office leaving Nytri behind. Nytri starts walking and the noble girls follow her all feeling good about themselves.

Nytri enters the principal's building to see his secretary waiting for her, she opens the door with a bow. "The principal is waiting for you." The secretary enters the office. The nobles find it odd since the secretary has never opened the door for anyone, not even kings. But they are too dumb to question the oddity, they only care about Nytri being punished.

Nytrh enters the office to see professor Gwyneth explaining things to Tristan but he's not listening, he's looking out the window. The secretary walks to him, "Lord Tristan, Miss Nytri is here."

Tristan turns on his chair, "You sure took your sweet time." And he gestures for Nytri to sit.

Nytri shrugs, "The messengers didn't show any urgency." Nytri sits down crossing her legs 'like a boss', but she later stopped because her legs became numb too quickly.

Tristan takes up an ancient looking book and the secretary brings more books like it to his table. Tristan hands the book to Nytri, "This is why I called you. I think you need to see this." Professor Gwyneth recognizes the book and suddenly turns to look at Nytri. Tristan speaks to professor Gwyneth, "I hope you understand what this means."

Professor Gwyneth nods, "Yes sir." Then she walks out of the office. The noble girls are watching and the princess of Falshurx exclaims, "What?!" She gets everyone's attention, "She's supposed to be punished for-"

"And who gave you permission to be in my office?" Tristan speaks with a scary aura spreading around him, the girls shiver. Tristan yells at them, "Get out of my sight before I make you!" the girls freak out tripping and falling. The secretary slams the door in their faces, literally one was bleeding.

Nytri looks at the secretary standing by the door. Tristan smiles holding a cup of tea, "Impressive, you noticed. She's from the previous civilization and has a contract with a noble fairy." He takes sip of his tea. The fairy of the secretary appears before her with pride. The fairy is like a little kid with dark skin and a dark aura emanating from him, he has black hair and green eyes in fancy clothes. He's a fairy noble so it'd be no surprise if he's Mythical Rank or Champion Rank that is on par with a demon lord.

"Huh, really?" Nytri asks and Tristan freezes spilling his tea on his shirt. Nytri stares at the fairy, "Unfortunately, my detection doesn't work on anything that can't hurt me." He words stab the fairy so hard he falls over.

The fairy is about to complain then Tristan speaks, "That makes sense, you are a World Ending Calamity."

The fairy points his hands at Nytri in disbelief, "You're saying this little brat is on par with the Legendary Dragon Catastrophe!"

Tristan takes the dagger Nytri upgraded for him and gives it to the fairy. The fairy snatches it from his hand, "I'll prove to you this brat is just some arrogant prodigy." He stretches his hand at Nytri, "APPRAISAL!" He stares at Nytri, he slowly turns pale, then he's as white as a sheet of paper. He starts mumbling gibberish like he's gone crazy. The secretary walks up to him and lifts him like a child took him to a couch on the side, he's still mumbling. The secretary takes the dagger from him and glances at Nytri, "…..I don't even want to know." She gives the dagger to Tristan.

Tristan has been suppressing a laugh for a while, "Ah right, I haven't introduced you. My secretary is Naida Ariadne, she's a Hero from the previous civilization and the fairy is Alder the Dark Star. A powerful fairy and with Naida, those 2 are able to fight against my father on equal grounds."

Nytri squints her mouth, "That's impressive." Nytri looks at Naida, "What do you mean by previous civilization?" She looks at Tristan.

Tristan points at the books, "I think you should read these before we get to talking about that, the answer is in the book. We'll answer any questions you have after you start reading."

"Oh," Nytri speaks, "That easy?" the 2 are confused, the books are very thick. Nytri snaps her fingers and 14 of her appears in the room shocking the 2. Each Nytri grabs a book and flips through the pages to their eyes but in fact, the Nytri's are moving so fast slowly ready every page.

In 3 minutes they finish all the books and then Nytri's speak at the same time, "Da~ng. This is as bad as Aunt Moti's prophecy."

Tristan snaps out of the stupor, "Prophecy?" Naida can't wrap her head around how there's 13 more of the same person before her. She's seen a cloning skill but even she can't tell them apart, one Nytri actually speaks with her.

"Yeah," Nytri speaks to Tristan and Naida listens, "About 1 year and some months ago, I was in the Monster Realm. Where the Dragon Catastrophe is a common sight." Alder wakes up and collapses after hearing that. Nytri continues, "My Aunt is an Alpidopteranox…" She notices they have no idea what that is, then she makes a hologram of some kind with Aunt Moti on a mountain and her wings can cover a mountain, "This is my Aunt, Aunt Moti." The group stare at the picture.

Nytri sighs, "I know, she asked me to build a big jar for her. But she only uses it to store honey and carries it around like a drunken master of honey."

Alder points at the side of Moti and the mountains with no words to speak. Nytri giggles, "Honestly, if Aunt Moti or any of her race were here, you won't be able to fight her at all."

Naida turns to Nytri, "Is she that strong?"

Nytri blows raspberries, "She's among the weakest of the weakest in the Monster Realm." The 3 are confused and Nytri continues, "Her race is a hypnotic kind. Even if she smashes your head with a hammer and pushes you off a cliff or kills your entire family before you, you can't bring yourself to hurt her. She can even command you to let go of your rage and poof," She makes the gesture, "It's like you were never angry to begin with."

The 3 are shocked and Naida speaks, "So it's like, the strong live and the weak die."

Nytri shakes her head, "Not really, in that place there's no weak or strong. Just smart and dumb. Aunt Moti for instance will never fight in close combat no matter how weak you look, and some will never show themselves when fighting…" She mumbles, "Despite their sizes."

Tristan's thoughts, "If's she's been to a place like this, then she must be strong enough to face the Dragon Catastrophe." Then her taps his finger on the table, "Anyway, that is not what I called you here for us to discuss. It's about the ancient civilizations….We fear the time is drawing near."
