Chapter 1466 - Old Friend
The next day, I started it by waking up late; after freshening up, I made the breakfast and ate it with Ashlyn.
Yesterday, I had told Professor Jenkins that I would not attend the meeting, that I want the whole day for practice; I could tell she did not like my decision, but she accepted it without a word.
After finis.h.i.+ng the breakfast, I opened the new intel on the partic.i.p.ants that professor Jenkins sent in the morning.
As Champions.h.i.+p reached its last phase, more and more information on the partic.i.p.ants begin to come out, not only about their battle strength but personal information as well; some nasty people like to use it during the battle.
Some of this information is quite shocking, like an affair with a married man or something, but I only gave the personal information a cursory glance. Personal information is no use to me; no matter how juicy it and how I could use it during the fight, I will not stoop that low to win the fight.
I read the battle info of every partic.i.p.ant and found some surprises; some of the partic.i.p.ants have hidden their strength too deeply. It surprising but is not; it happens in every Champions.h.i.+p.
While on some partic.i.p.ants there is a surprising amount of information, on some partic.i.p.ants there is barely any, the "Monsters" like Mira and Ellen have barely any new information.
I have read them personally of them, and there is nothing special, almost bland on some like ellen. She already had a fiancé when their new girlfriends and Ellen are not one to perform infidelity.
Mira"s personal information is also quite bland; aside from the list of boyfriends she had in the past, there is nothing.
The ones that did not have much information, personal or otherwise, are twins; both of them have very little information; it is like the past three years of their they had no life, if not for me talking to them and sensing their power, I would have thought their organization had confined them for three years.
Speaking of hiding, those two are hiding really deep; they have only won ninty four battles, barely enough to enter the Top 100. The twins are strong, very strong; the feeling I get from them tells me that I will have to try hard if I want to defeat them.
It took me a little more than two hours to finished reading all the info; after I finished with it, I cooked myself and Ashlyn a good lunch before I again laid on the bed and went to my Inheritance place to work on my Inheritance.
There I worked till evening, on the outside, it was just six hours but inside, it was the whole day, and when I came out, I was feeling tired, but there was a smile on my face, I have gotten close, and in two days, I will be able to make a breakthrough into the Mid Level of Knight.
"I will not be late," I said as I looked at my holowatch; I have to go meed, Clair. Due to the schedule of the Champions.h.i.+p, I did not get a chance to meet her.
Today, I will have a chat with the old friend before going to my parents if there is some time.
With that thought in mind, I went to shower, wore new clothes before walking out of my room. On the way, I saw Professor Josephine and Elena walked; they saw me but did not ask where I am going; they already know where I am going, that is why Elina had winked at me.
Giving her a smile, I walked into the garden before shooting into the sky and flew toward the restaurant we decided to meet.
Thud!
Fifteen minutes later, I landed in front of a restaurant named "Crystal." Which is wholly made of very rare, "Pereian Crystals" they are very expensive, and now someone has constructed a restaurant from it.
This most High-End restaurant has Ive seen, after admiring the beautiful pink crystal it is made of, I walked inside the restaurant.
"Micheal Zaar, please," said the host as she saw me and took me toward my table.
This restaurant is quite big; there must be around fifty tables and people sitting there are of importance. I had already sensed more than ten tyrants and fifteen some partic.i.p.ants that entered the top Top 100.
As I walked inside, I felt many gazes on me, some even scanning me with soul sense heavily, trying to get a feel of my aura.
These idiots, they will not gain anything from me; before coming here, the Teacher had deeply cleaned all the residual aura from my body, and since then, I had never used my full power, so there, not much for them to sense.
As for leakage, there is next to nothing; I had made my Inheritance airtight. Even when I am using my Inheritance, the energy never leaked from my body as all the energy that is supposed to leak was sucked by the runes.
I couldn"t help but smile inside me when I feel attempts of soul probe; some of these people must be intentionally here to gather information. The price of any new information on the partic.i.p.ants is very expensive.
Even tyrants could be set for life if they gather very important information on the top partic.i.p.ants.
Smiling at their attempts, I follow the host, and soon, I spot the pink-haired girl. She is already at the table waiting.
"Micheal," she said as we reached the table and stood up to hug me, "Clair," I said as I hugged her back, albeit with little awkwardness.
When we were children, we were quite good friends, but now, after nearly a decade, its all awkward, but I am sure we will gain that friends.h.i.+p back which we once had.
"Its quite awkward after all these years, right," she said as she let go of the hug, "Yes," I replied with a small smile and took a seat beside her.
