Chapter 115 This Year, The Champion Is None Other Than…

?

George walked up to Henry with a smug expression on his face.

Right now, he was feeling like the MVP of the Dud Manor, and Henry had to admit that he really took one for the team.

“You’re up, loser,” George commented.

“Yes, yes, I’m going,” Henry replied as he walked towards the arena in order to fight the Head Prefect of the Terra Manor, Irene.

However, after taking a few steps, Henry stopped and glanced back at his best friend, who was looking back at him with a knowing glance.

“Thank you, George,” Henry said. “For everything.”

George smirked. “Just go. After all, we already got this tournament in the bag.”

Henry nodded before walking up to the arena, where a beautiful lady was waiting for him with a smile on her face.

“Well then, Henry, Irene, are you ready to start the match?” Professor Barret asked.

“There’s no need for it, Professor,” Henry replied before walking towards Irene. “I concede this match.”

The Head Prefect of the Dud Manor then knelt in front of Irene. He held her hand and kissed it for everyone to see.

Within the entirety of Brynhildr Academy, there was only one person that Henry couldn’t win against. It was none other than his fiance, Irene, whom he loved very much.

“How sweet!” one of the girls in the stands looked at this scene gushed with a flushed face.

“Why are all the good guys taken?” another girl complained. “What about us? We need our Prince Charming as well.”

“I guess the men from Dud Manor aren’t half bad,” a Witch commented. “That George may have a bit of personality, but I like how stubborn he is.”

“… Right. I guess he has his own charm as well.”

“My parents will definitely not agree if I marry a Dud. But, if he is as handsome as Noah, I’m sure my mother will not mind.”

Professor Barret sighed in his heart before raising his hand to declare the winner of the last match.

“Winner, Irene Campbell!” Professor Barret declared.

Due to this, the result of today’s battle was 2 Wins and 2 Losses for both manors. Even so, the overall tally of the Round Robin match was as follows.

—————————————

Dud Manor – 5 Wins 3 Loses.

Terra Manor – 4 Wins 4 Loses.

Jaeger Manor – 3 Wins 5 Loses.

Professor Rinehart then stood up and raised his hand to silence the people in the Grand Stadium.

“And now, I announce the result of the Clash of Manors!” Professor Rinehart declared. “This year, the Champion is none other than the Dud Manor!”

“““Whoa!”””

The crowd cheered and applauded the Champions. No one had expected that the winner of the tournament would be the Manor where all the magically crippled students gathered.

Zack Kerr, whose goal was to have the Dud Manor permanently closed, clenched his fist tightly. Due to this victory, he no longer had an excuse to submit his proposal to the Magical Bureau to force the Manor’s closure.

The arrogant Duke’s gaze locked icily at the Headmaster of the Academy, who, for some reason, looked in his direction and gave him a smirk, further fueling the anger that Zack was feeling inside his chest.

‘You won this round, Rinehart.’ Zack sneered. ‘But, you can’t keep winning forever. One day, you will lose and when that day comes, I will be there to take what I want!’

The Duke then left the arena amidst the cheering of the crowd. For a brief moment, he felt as if they were jeering at him for his loss, making his mood become even more sour.

‘Zack, you need to keep your hands off the students of my academy.’ Professor Rinehart thought as he watched the Duke walking away in the distance. ‘If you force my hand then I will not hesitate to do what I have to do.’

As someone who had kept the tradition, and spirit of Brynhildr Academy alive, Professor Rinehart had sent his people to fight those who wished to lay their hands on the academy in the shadows.

This battle had been going on for many years, and fortunately, his side had the upper hand. However, he also understood that he couldn’t win forever.

This was why he had set some contingencies in place, so he could stop being passive and focus on defense. If, and when, he was truly forced to act, he would bring the battlefield to their opponent’s home court, destroying it until they had nothing left.

“Your members did a good job this year, Henry,” Irene said as she helped her fiance stand up. “Especially Ethan. Make sure to keep watch on him. I’m very sure that those who hold influence and power in the Magical World are paying close attention to him as we speak.”

“Understood.” Henry nodded. “I’ll make sure to protect my Juniors to the best of my ability.”

Irene smiled before leaving the arena with steady steps. She was not the type to openly show her affection in public, unlike her junior, who had kissed Noah in front of everybody.

Her private affairs were private, and were only to be conducted behind closed doors. However, she made sure to make everyone understand that Henry belonged to her, and he was off limits to the other Witches in the academy. 𝞸𝔳𝑙xt.𝒸𝞸𝓜

Truth be told, she was very sad that Terra Manor didn’t manage to become this year’s champion. But, her members had done their best, allowing them to take Second Place.

Her Manor Mates had the same opinion as her, so although they were disappointed, they accepted the results of the tournament with grace.

Inside the Infirmary…

“Dud Manor won…,” Luna muttered after hearing Professor Rinehart’s announcement.

“Good for you guys,” Chloe commented. “I’m sure that Ethan will be ecstatic when he wakes up from his sleep.”

The handsome teenager was still unconscious, and the Medics told them that he had just exhausted his Magical Powers. He had already drunk recovery potions, and all that he needed was rest to recover.

Chloe and Luna made sure that none of the pretty girls from Terra Manor could do anything funny, while they administered their treatment to Ethan.

The two were worried that they would make him drink love potions, or charm potions, while he was unable to defend himself.

Although these potions weren’t as powerful as their name suggested, they were still able to make people momentarily lose their sense of reason, allowing others to take advantage of them.

The medics of the Terra Manor all had disappointed looks on their faces, as they gave the unconscious Ethan side-long glances.

With two girls, keeping watch over him, the pretty medics didn’t have an opportunity to give Ethan any special treatment, that would make the handsome teenager look at them favorably when he regained his consciousness.
