Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 335: Mysterious Figure

The people from Five Professions Academy started getting settled into their place. Their place of stay for the next month was a massive, hotel-like building with many rooms in it. 

“Woah” the students walked in, very surprised at their new place of stay. Quickly, the teachers started selecting the rooms for the students. 

“Alright, rest for now. The competition starts tomorrow, so you won’t have much free time after that,” Yola said. 

The students nodded and all went to their rooms to rest. Most of the teachers also went to their rooms. Only Yola didn’t go into her room. 

When she turned around, she found out that Ely hadn’t returned to her room either. “Teacher Ely, you’re not going to rest?” Yola asked. 

“Oh? What about you Yola?” she asked. “Don’t you need to rest?” 

“I… I will soon,” Yola said. 

“Alright, stop acting. I know you want to go see who is so important that Tsado isn’t even giving you the time to welcome you,” Ely said. 

“Hah, I can’t escape the eyes of someone so old, can I?” Yola said. 

“Come, I’m curious too,” Ely said and they both the place. Just as they walked out, they saw a ship land in front of the place on the right to theirs. 

“Oh, they’re here too,” Yola said in surprise. 

“Hey, Yola! You guys got here before us?” A man shouted from the top of the ship. He said something quietly to the people on the boat and jumped down. 

When he reached the ground, Ely could see that the man was a middle-aged person with golden hair and green robes. He looked a little familiar to her, but she couldn’t understand from where.

“Oh, Jivon, you arrive almost at the same time as we did,” Yola said. “I would’ve thought you guys would leave earlier than us.”

“Yeah we were going to, but Sephyr suddenly had a lot of visitors from the southern continent, so we couldn’t leave in time.”

“I would’ve assumed the same to be for you and the guys from Noetra,” Jivon said. “Sigh, Urnet might be the only empire that has a relatively normal time right now.”

He then turned around to Ely and quickly bowed down. “Good Afternoon, Teacher Eleonora. I see you are doing quite well,” he said. 

“Do I know you?” Ely asked. She still couldn’t quite remember where she saw her. 

“Oh, you might have forgotten me, after all, it’s been so many years. I am Jivon Hegger, the current head of the Great Beginners Academy of the Sephyr empire.”

“I used to study artifact in the Five Professions Academy about a millennia ago, so you might not remember me at all,” Jivon said.

“Oh, right right. Now I remember. You are the kid that made the Stinkbomb and got expelled, aren’t you?” she asked. 

Jivon’s face got a little red. “I’m surprised you remember that, teacher Eleonora. I would’ve expected everyone to forget about it,” he said. 

“That sort of thing is not something one easily forgets,” Ely said with a light chuckle. “I see you’re doing quite well. You must’ve become the head quite recently then, didn’t you? I remember the head being Tymo last time.”

“Unfortunately, senior Tymo passed away in closed cultivation so I had to take his place,” Jivon said with a sad face. 

“I see,” Ely said. “Anyway, don’t you want to go inside with your students. Why are you staying out here?” 

“Oh right, I wanted to ask. Did Tasdo come out for you guys? He didn’t even come to get me. So rude,” Jivon said. 

“No. His students said that he is busy with someone really strong from another continent,” Yola said. 

“Yeah, he said the same thing to me too. I wanted to go see who is so important that he isn’t leaving at all,” Jivon said. 

“We were just about to go there too. Come, let’s go,” Yola said and flew away. Jivon flew behind her, and Ely flew at the end. 

Before soon, they arrived inside the Bright Red Academy’s official grounds and entered. The students there didn’t dare stop the Heads of two different academies from entering at all. 

“Wow, these students are so lax. They just let us enter without even saying anything,” Jivon said. 

“That’s quite weird really,” Yola said. 

Soon they realized why they were so lax. A little ahead of them was a short, fat man with a half-bald head with white dress pacing outside of the door to the principal’s door.

“Oi, Fren. The hell are you doing here?” Jivon asked in surprise. 

“Oh, principal Yola, Jivon. You guys are here too? Are you here for the same thing?” the man named Fren asked. Fren didn’t acknowledge Ely’s existence as she was just a mere teacher in front of them. 

“Are you not going inside?” Jivon asked. 

“I tried to, but Tsado didn’t let me enter,” Fren said. 

“Didn’t let you enter?” Yola asked confusedly. 

“Yeah, I knocked on his door multiple times, and he came out only to tell me to wait longer. The audacity of that man,” Fren got angry. “I don’t know how important that man with the purple robe could be.”

“Oh, you saw who was in there?” Yola asked. 

“Oh yeah. It was some guy with a purple dress and a head full of hair. Although I only saw his back, so I don’t know how he looks like,” Fren said. 

Jivon looked at him and asked, “So you don’t know which continent he is—”

The door opened. 

“Thank you, senior. Your words were very enlightening to me,” a hoarse voice came from inside the room. 

“Oh, Tsado’s out,” Jivon said softly. 

“Oh no, it’s fine. I was just saying what I learned. You would have learned it sooner or later yourself,” a young voice came from inside the room. 

A dark-skinned, broad-faced, middle-aged man walked out with a young man in a purple robe behind them. 

Ely and Yola looked at the young man in surprise, and the young man noticed them as well. 

“Oh! hey, Ely. You guys are finally here,” the young man said with a smile.

The mysterious person they were so curious to see was none other than Ning himself.
