Chapter 378: Dusk Demon’s Sun (4k)
When the dueling festival inside the Mana Academy was unfolding in order, the Saint Maryan dueling branches around the world had long been open to the public.
Saint Maryan Academy’s dueling competition was one of the few events hosted by humans that were also very popular in other demi-human territories.
After the war ended, the estrangement between humans and demi-humans gradually became apparent, yet only Saint Maryan Academy’s reputation remained strong.
Especially in the newly built Free City in the former demon territory—a home for half-breeds—the discrimination-free Saint Maryan Academy was revered as a holy place, with every child dreaming of entering it to advance their studies.
This year’s Easter Duel Festival was grandest at the dueling branch in the Free City besides the capital of the human kingdom.
Cynthia Saint Altair was currently in Box 1 of the Free City’s dueling branch.
She had been busy in the Free City for quite some time, and today she finally had some free time, so she thought about checking how well the academy’s Easter Duel Festival was going and whether it could become a regular event.
“Tell me, Cynthia, is this really something Shylph could come up with?”
Beside Principal Altair, a woman with hair like a sunrise carefully observed an Easter egg, marveling at it.
“Suna, didn’t I tell you it was a student’s idea?”
Principal Altair picked up a strawberry, placing it in her mouth, her crystal lips slightly moist. Her nearly transparent silver hair was as pure as moonlight.
Suna Montiel Farley, the mayor of the Free City, was a heroic figure who had built a city on this land of ruins. Like Professor Pavar Jones, she possessed the bloodline of a giant.
“You mean the student is Alvaraite’s son?”
Mayor Montiel Farley crossed her arms, carelessly crossing her legs, her rugged but still beautiful face showing a hint of curiosity.
Sul Montiel Farley, with half the bloodline of a giant, was more slender than Professor Jones, who had only one-sixteenth of the giant bloodline. However, Sul’s heart was just as vast, and beneath her delicate skin lay immense strength.
When mentioning the son of the Valkyrie, Mayor Montiel Farley couldn’t help but ask, “Is he really as excellent as you say? I heard…”
Principal Altair smiled, “Humans change in both character and disposition before and after they understand things. As educators, our job is to guide them correctly during this period.”
Mayor Montiel Farley shook her head, “I hope so. I don’t want to be disappointed.”
Principal Altair raised her head, looking through the one-way mirror of the box at the spectator area below.
As the 8:30 match was about to begin, more and more spectators poured into the venue.
Many spectators were drawn to the Easter egg distribution points in various sections. The price of 188 sacred coins per egg did not deter their enthusiasm.
Principal Altair then said, “I heard he will participate in this competition. You can observe him yourself later.”
“Participate in the competition?” Mayor Montiel Farley was surprised, “He’s only a first-year student, isn’t he?”
Principal Altair replied, “This Easter Duel Festival has a new format. Didn’t you notice?”
Mayor Montiel Farley shook her head slightly, “With all the忙
