Chapter 322: It's Time to Go
"Hey, who is that girl? She reached level 35 at the age of 16, and that much affinity color. Ugh, I got a little dizzy from the lights earlier."
"Yeah, me too."
"Ah! I know that girl. She is Miss Elysia Avery. You still remember what happened four days ago, right? The first-year student exams were messed up because a dangerous domain appeared near this city."
"Oh! So she is the same girl who saved her trapped classmates. An impressive heroic spirit with extraordinary talent."
The discussions from seniors and aristocrats broke out, and the main topic was only about Elysia. They were wondering about Elysia's origin and background.
Apart from those who had good impressions, some also harbored bad intentions towards Elysia.
At several special places in the stadium, various parties put their attention to investigate Elysia. However, some of them wanted Elysia by their side or under their banner.
"Platinum card with that much affinity. Gather all the information about that girl. I want it in my hands this afternoon."
"Keke, that girl's Holy Magic affinity is that bright. Maybe comparable to the Holy Princess. Quick, find the detailed information about that girl. I want that girl."
"Hmm... that girl's talent is limitless and has a high probability of reaching the realm of God in the next few decades. Please find out anything about that girl, even to the smallest detail. I will make that girl fall under our faction at any cost."
"She is absolutely a priceless living treasure. Keh, there will definitely be a lot of pests that will target that girl. She is beautiful enough to be my future wife. All right, this lord will protect you precious, ha, hahaha! I'm so handsome. We'll meet soon."
One by one, the various parties began to implement their intentions. Unfortunately, Elysia neither knew nor cared about that. Even if the news reached her ears, she wouldn't be too worried because she was already protected by strong backgrounds such as the Celestine Family and the Mitchell Family.
The reassessment test continued until all 282 first graders had their new privilege cards in hand. They left the scene in an orderly manner, and the second graders entered the field.
As soon as the first graders entered the passage located under the tier of seats, several students immediately pestered Serena to find out the truth.
"Excuse me, Miss Serena. Can you please spare a moment of your time for us? There is something we need to ask you." A female student rushed over and stopped in front of Serena. She blocked the path along with several other curious students.
"What kind of questions would you like to ask?" Serena frowned, and her servants immediately stood on either side of her.
"We just wanted to ask you about your talent grade. Why did you get a silver card instead of platinum?"
"Yes, have you lied to us all this time? You frequently flaunted your talents and experiences with us. Was that nothing more than nonsense?"
"Um, what happened? Did you really break the academy rules? What rules did you break?"
"We heard you took another student's privilege card. So, your previous card was Miss Elysia's possession? She is the only one who holds a platinum card in our class."
A series of questions were thrown at Serena. However, Serena became even more annoyed the more she listened to the accusations being leveled at her.
All these students cared about were talent, connections, personal gain, or the like. They were nothing more than people who approached her just for something she had. Neither of them cared about herself.
Although Serena had prepared herself for this day, it was different when it actually happened.
Serena looked up at all the students who often gathered with her with an irritated glare and exclaimed. "Shut up!"
The noisy students immediately became silent, speechless as they were shocked by Serena's response.
"Is that all you care about? What do you see in me? Yes, this is a silver card, not platinum. Then what?" Serena showed her silver card for everyone to see.
"You are all the same. If you see me as guilty, then I am the one to blame. Yes, I took Elysia's platinum card. I am the bad one. Satisfied? If nothing else, then excuse me." After saying that in annoyance but still holding back, Serena broke through the student encirclement and left with her servants.
Serena didn't even glance at or pay any attention to Elysia, who was standing not far from her. She left with no intention of returning to the grandstand to watch the seniors' reassessment test but instead headed for the exit.
Elysia let out a soft sigh to see that. The outcome was quite unexpected because Serena just admitted it without any defense, like the many reasons in the previous incident.
Then, Elysia walked towards the group of students who had previously surrounded Serena.
"Em, Ely?" Evelyn walked along with her best friend, not knowing what the latter would do.
"Excuse me, I have no intention of meddling with other people's business. However, Miss Serena has already received punishment from our academy for her actions. If you still see Miss Serena, Cora, and Nico as friends, you need to catch up with them as soon as possible. Ask about their situation gently. They seem tired and depressed, especially Miss Serena." Elysia grasped her hand with a polite smile to convey gentle advice.
Hearing that, several students looked at each other. Most of them just shook their heads. They politely declined Elysia's request before leaving. It was clear that they were no longer wanted to heed Elysia's advice because they no longer wanted to be friends with Serena anymore.
However, four girls remained, but they still felt confused and uncertain. They looked to Elysia for more direction and insight.
"You know, if you still consider them friends, then your relationship will break down the longer you feel indecisive. If you wait for tomorrow, then your friendship is broken and difficult to repair.
What do you see in Miss Serena? Herself or something else? Will Miss Serena become a different person just because she holds a silver card? You will appear to be only taking advantage of Miss Serena if things like this keep you from being friends with her anymore." Elysia gave a subtle quip at the leaving students as she reminded these four hesitated girls.
"Yes, if you just love to build such shallow friendships, then sooner or later, you will lose friends in a way that is not much different. Ely doesn't even care or hate Serena, even though Ely is the victim. Yes, Ely is so kind and forgiving. However, you are the meanie ones here. After all, Serena has admitted that with no hesitation to you." Evelyn put her hand on Elysia's arm with a sweet smile for some inexplicable reasons.
She was somewhat surprised when Serena immediately confessed without beating around the bush. Then, she felt warm when her best friend advised these students about friendship.
If honesty needs to be said, Evelyn felt both sympathy and gratitude to Serena. Because of Serena's actions, she was able to meet Elysia and become best friends. So, at least, she needed to help Serena a little.
"Ah-uh, you are right, Miss Elysia, Miss Evelyn. Thank you for your advice. We are puzzled by the situation. Thus, allow us to excuse ourselves. We need to catch up with Miss Serena." One of the girls in the group responded. She and her friends gave a little bow of courtesy, then they scurried away in a hurry.
"Let's get Vann, Eve. The appointed time is almost here." Elysia nudged Evelyn with her elbow.
"Mm, let's go." Evelyn felt a little downcast as she remembered that her best friend needed to be away for a few days.
After that, Elysia and Evelyn returned to the grandstand for the first graders to pick up the white cat. They said goodbye to Joanna, Zofia, and the girls because they needed to go to the grandstand for third graders.
Although the real reason was that Elena warned to avoid the nearest exit. There were many suspicious unknown parties right outside the first graders' passage.
Elysia sent telepathy for Nell to meet at the passage for the third graders, then Ella arrived shortly after.
"Ely, congrats to you. The color of your elemental magic affinity has dazzled my eyes. You made the whole stadium light up with more than 101 colors, hehe..." Ella came and held Elysia's hand with a sincere smile.
Although most of her happiness came from satisfaction, she received a lot of direction and guidance from her Goddess. She just needed to wait before she was appointed to be an angel.
"Woah, you really counted it, Ella? I've lost the count after counting 40 different colors." Evelyn also took hold of Elysia's other hand.
"En, I counted it. But... I've also lost count after 101." Ella nodded excitedly.
"Hum-hum, you girls are so close to each other. Good friendships are beautiful. I feel peaceful when I see the three of you." Nell flew away from Ella's shoulder and landed on Elysia's shoulder as she spoke. She didn't reveal her form, but she protected their conversation with magic.
"Ah, the friendship is beautiful when the right friend is found. I feel so grateful and blessed." Ella closed her eyes with a smile, then she realized that the voice was not coming from her shoulder anymore. "Uhm, is it time for you to go with Ely and the Goddess of Light, o the Goddess of Blessings?"
