Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System
chapter-186

Not even a couple of minutes after Lydia left, the door of the classroom opened again but this time it was Boris the one who appeared accompanied by Richard which was smiling from ear to ear.

Without caring about Boris, Richard pushed him out of his way as he rushed towards Yvonne and the others, only after seeing they were completely okay, gave a thankful gaze at Daimon before he patted his shoulder so hard that a loud slapping sound filled the room.

"Kid, I don't know what you did, but I saw Kirik and Horace rushing back to the Risha family main ground as if their asses were on fire, so of course I kicked their asses on the way until they had no option but to use their escaping scrolls hahaha".

Richard's loud laugh made the room tremble a bit, he was faraway when all this happened so by the time he arrived, all the previous situation was over, unfortunately for Kirik and Horace, Richard still caught a glimpse of them and decided to vent some of his anger on them forcing them to use a precious spatial scroll which transported them back to the Risha family, but not before they got beaten black and blue by him.

Daimon simply shrugged.

"I didn't do anything, instructor Richard probably still doesn't know it, but earlier there was a sudden agglomeration of half emperors and even a couple of magus kings in front of our classroom, even the field marshal from the army appeared".

Richard's eyes widened a bit, he did feel a huge amount of mana being manipulated in the direction of the academy, but he thought it was probably two half emperors facing off, and turns out even his most renowned student made a move probably to lend a hand to Irina and Yvonne.

But then he frowned, the only half emperors which he could think were interested in the three little girls of his family, weren't from this galaxy and shouldn't be here considering their heirs were having their own tournament back at the blue-sky galaxy.

Which led him to wonder, why would they go through all the trouble just to get them Yvonne and the others to marry someone from their families, but knowing Wilbert Ascott and his friends it was probably just for face, after some of the members of their young generation were humiliated by Daimon.

Aliya shook his head seeing Richard interrupting her uncle.

"Ahem, instructor, we are going to be late for the start of the tournament if we don't hurry up".

Richard chuckled, somehow Aliya seemed more talkative today which was for the better.

…

The training grounds of the academy had a different completely different atmosphere today, normally only the students which have their combat lessons are allowed to enter, unless they have some privileges like elite class, the reason is obvious, all the equipment, and the self-repairing magic formations engraved on the platforms, practically burn resources.

But today the gates were open for anyone that wanted to watch the matches, of course there were different kinds of seats to watch it, and the number of free ones was limited.

To avoid any problems staff from the academy and the army were dispatched, to watch over the lines of countless of students that wanted to get a free seat, and even those who were willing to pay had no other choice but to wait.

There was still about ten minutes for the people to be allowed to go inside, so everyone was silently protecting their spot in the line while waiting for it.

And that's why such a large group of people arriving this late was so eye catching, especially because they ignored the waiting lines and went directly to the main gate which had the largest amount of people waiting to enter.

Most of the people felt outraged, they have been waiting in line for about two to three hours, and some people simply passed them like that.

Nevertheless, some of them recognized the demon of the elite class walking among the group and wisely remained silent, but the students of the other academies and other visitors immediately complained.

"Hey, what the hell, why can they jump the line!".

"Only second years are participating today, so why are those first years being given priority?".

"Is this how the Wild Claw academy treats my Faresh family?".

"Silence!", after listening to the ruckus, the guard of the main door, a tall man with a moustache and a uniform from the army, shouted in an authoritative tone, the pressure of an early stage Archknight suppressed those who were yelling a moment ago, making them pale.

The man saw that all their bravado was suddenly gone and he coldly snorted.

"That's why I hate fucking nobles", said the man in a voice loud enough for others to hear, while normally he would have to be a bit careful with those who had strong backers, but today was different, many forces were gathered in the academy and the agreement gave the academy the maximum authority.

So, if someone were to break the rules, all the other forces will join to punish it, the man then looked at Daimon, and he frowned, supposedly all those who had priority access should already be inside, but he didn't jump into conclusions and instead asked.

"This gate is reserved for teachers, staff of the academy and a few selected people, can you show me your identity token?".

Daimon nodded, he took out the token he was given which had the number "1" engraved on it and showed it to the gate keeper, then the others did the same, as for the Risha mothers, Haylee, Liz and Elaine which did not have them simply stood next to their respective relatives in the academy.

The man inspected the tokens and although he frowned seeing that not all of them had tokens of identity, they were probably family of them, so after a moment of contemplation he nodded at the other guards.

"Open the gate, they are the elite class of the first years, cross their names from the list".

Ignoring the envious and hateful gazes directed at them, the elite class entered the training grounds which have become something like a stadium for the event.

"Woaah, when did the academy made so much changes", mumbled Leslie surprised.

Instead of the platform and the equipment normally used for training, there was only a single arena which was surrounded by stands and even skyboxes which were separated from the rest of the seats.

Most of the skyboxes had an emblem corresponding to a family or force, there was even one for the Revy family where the punishment elder which was going to be ascended to supreme elder among with some other peak Arch ranks were waiting for the tournament to start.

The same applied for the Argent family because Aura had her own skybox which she wasn't using anyway, as the principal she had the seat of honor after all.

Daimon immediately spotted the one which was destined for the elite class, but as he was about to ask Liz to help them float towards it, a sarcastic voice could be heard coming from behind of them.

"How lucky, there is one last skybox which isn't being used".

The faces of the girls form the elite class became a bit hostile, Loren specially, they turned around to confirm their supposition and as they expected, it was Alexander and his subordinates, which were now looking at them with disdain, what did surprise them was that there was no other student of the academy with him.

Instead of that Daimon recognized the pattern of two big academies, one of them was a brown castle and the other one was something that looked like a hurricane.

But then Boris's next words stopped him from saying anything else.

"You three aren't considered part of the elite class since you left, so you can go and take some regular seats or pay for some of the available ones".

A girl with the uniform of the earth's palace coldly glared at Alexander, they agreed to come with him together since there was a possibility of them working together.

Alexander gritted his teeth, but he knew Boris wasn't lying, his authority as the fourth ranked of the elite class was revoked after his own class was formed, and now since he had the bad luck of meeting the elite class, he had no choice but to swallow his complains.

Richard took the initiative to raise everyone from the ground using his mana, leaving behind an angry Alexander which was abandoned by his new "friends".

The door of the skybox opened and they all entered it, inside was like a completely different world, besides the glass wall, everything else was luxurious without making it look too exaggerated.

Everyone took a seat while they inspected some of the things left behind for their entertainment.

The loud sound of footsteps could be heard as everyone pushed others to find the seat they wanted, sooner than later all the other students and visitors were allowed to enter and find their respective places.

Once more than three quarters of the stadium were filled with people, then it was time for the show to start, Aura's voice filled the stadium as she said.

"Welcome to all the visitors and members of other academies, I hope the event seen my Wild Claw academy is sponsoring".

Daimon then remembered Aura said she has a surprise for him, he turned to see Erin as he asked.

"So, who are the participants of today's match?".
