Novel Full Chapter 200: Panicking Teachers (Bonus)
“Do you believe me this entire idea is his?”
“His? Just look at what he is doing right now? He is burning the island. That very island is where we usually conduct our events. Do you know what that means? We might not be able to use this island for at least a few years.
If we want to restore the vegetation, it will take years!”
“Ugh.” Vivian scratched the back of her head. “I mean, he has asked Jason, right?”
“It’s true that Jason has told him he can do everything, but…” The principal was grinding his teeth. He had never seen a little devil that could make him this frustrated. More importantly, the person that wanted to become his disciple was close to him. It was as if Selena was in the devil’s clutch.
“If you look at it objectively, he doesn’t break any rules. And yes, it’s an effective method to kill those proto-class aliens. With this, he is clearly in the lead with a huge margin.
“Besides, the teachers will make their moves once the students are in danger. This is a strategy that he can only execute at this event. Of course, I’ll reprimand him later, but it’s a justified action.
“You should have heard about Rudeus isolating both of them from the entire class, right? It’s clear they’re being targeted. With them being pushed to the corner, I think it’s reasonable for Nathan to take such an action.” freёwebnovel.com
The principal clenched his hands into fists. “You shouldn’t spoil your student that much. Does he know that his action will lead to multiple problems? Those students will take this seriously.”
“According to my familiar, Nathan has visited Flora.”
“Flora?” The principal looked shocked. He definitely knew what happened if Flora got involved.
The principal pinched the bridge of his nose. “Maybe I should separate her from your disciple…”
“You know it’s not going to happen. She will probably choose him, not you.” Vivian shrugged.
“Kh.” The principal took a deep breath, having a hard time to calm down. “You better reprimand him after this. Make sure that he doesn’t do anything like this in the future. If he does, there will be a lot of people angry at him. If he makes the world his enemy, it’ll just cause more trouble not only for him, but for us as well.”
“I know. I know.” Vivian smiled wryly. Even she would stop him if she knew about the plan. After all, she was known as the Forest Queen.
There would definitely be a lot of bad rumors regarding her and her disciple, such as ‘the disciple of the Forest Queen turned out to be a Forest Destroyer.’
If her familiars disliked Nathan, there was a high chance they wouldn’t assist Nathan anymore. In fact, the dryad who was asking for the divine tree’s root might even attack Nathan after seeing how he destroyed nature.
Vivian could only sigh.
…
Still, the one who was having a heart attack was not the principal and the vice principal. It was the teachers who supervised the entire event.
When they saw Nidhogg’s fire spread, all of them couldn’t help but drop their jaws to the ground.
“Jason… Are you seeing what I’m seeing?” One teacher asked, blinking her eyes a few times.
“How can a student burn the forest? I know the tropical forest is rather dry, but isn’t this too much?”
“This is not good. Those students will be poisoned if they inhaled the smoke too much. There are a lot of cases where people are dying because they inhale smoke. We have to stop it.”
“But we can’t interfere with the exams. If we put the fire down, it will be seen as the teachers suppressing a student.”
“But the student has broken the rule… No, wait. Has he broken the rule?”
“Jason has said he is allowed to do anything without repercussions. In other words, he has confirmed that he can do anything on the island without even paying for the damage.”
“Jason. You freaking idiot! What have you done? What kind of power have you given to that student? All those aliens that die in the fire aside, this student will definitely enrage all aliens and students.”
It was at this moment that Jason realized he’d fucked up.
He thought the rule was justified, but he never imagined there would be a student insane enough to destroy the island.
Jason bit his lips. “I know what you’re going to say, but for now, we are not allowed to touch the fire. Just focus on retrieving the students who are in danger. We can’t let them inhale too much smoke.”
The teachers exchanged looks. It seemed that they had no other choice.
Teacher Dikkleus immediately asked his familiar to teleport the teachers to the west side of the aliens.
As expected, there were people who had inhaled too much smoke and collapsed on the ground.
Without hesitation, the teachers brought them back to the ship and let another teacher heal them. They would never think that they would be eliminated in just an hour into the competition. And they were not eliminated by natural disasters, aliens, or other classmates. They were defeated by smoke.
They would definitely hate Nathan even more. Then again, they targeted Nathan from the beginning, so this was just retaliation.
The teacher, who was taking care of the ship, was looking at the rest of the teachers who were working hard to handle the damage caused by Nathan with a wry smile. “The sea is calm today, but I guess the land is not.”
Fortunately, a lot of students managed to loop around the island, barely avoiding the smoke.
However, there were four unlucky pairs who had to drop out.
Nathan had asked Nidhogg to destroy the trees in a straight line so that the fire didn’t spread to the east side of the island. It would be troublesome if the whole island was on fire since even he wouldn’t survive.
This was also the reason Nathan asked everyone to gather as much food as possible.
Yin Zhen probably had a more accurate description of Nathan after seeing his decision.
While looking at his back, Yin Zhen thought, ‘Is he… the Heavenly Demon?’
