Chapter 2185 - Spread Like Wildfire
It only took half a day for the news to spread, and I was quite surprised by calm people are taking the news, or I might say how un-panicky they were.
Though worry could be seen on their faces, they believe the Pyramid will handle it, and not to mention we have always been fighting against the Grimm Monsters, and nearly all here fought them.
So, they clearly understood what we were dealing with and knew that the enemy was extremely powerful, but we will deal with it, as we have always had.
After I had received the news, Ive told the watered-down version to my father, and he became quite worried about the implication it would have on my mother; this huge s.h.i.+ft in the war would affect her as everyone else.
I am worried about her as my father, but I could not do anything about it other than worry. She is at an unknown place that everyone but that only Grand Commander and old monsters is aware of.
My father had again asked me when she would return, and this time, I had no answer other than she is alive; this is the answer Ive gotten from the Pyramid.
Knock Knock!
"Come in," I said, and the door opened, and a handsome man in his mid-thirties walked inside. "Lord Micheal," middle-aged said respectfully and even bowed a little. I had told him to not do that, but he did not listen, and I stopped saying anything.
"Professor Stanton, as always, for headmistresses hands only," I said and handed him the package.
While I could not go back to the Academy, I have been in close contact with it and continued providing specially curated resources. I have the data that the teacher sent every week on select few people we are focusing on, from council members to talented youngs of the Academy.
With that data, it is not hard for me to create specially crafted resources that spurted their growth.
Professor Stanton is one of the people that teacher had selected. He was an unranked Tyrant two months ago, and now he is an Elite, and it won"t be long before he reaches the middle level.
"The academy and its people are very grateful to you, lord Micheal," He said and again bowed a little before walking out. In a few minutes, a teacher would contact me as she always does after receiving the resources.
How I wish I could go back to the Academy, it will only take a few minutes at most, whether I go myself or use the teleportation formations in Pyramid, but I could not. There is no guarantee that Grimm"s won"t come to kill me.
The teacher had already been a target of five a.s.sa.s.sination attempts; the two were from masters.
It is only because of the Master level powerhouses from the Pyramid protecting her that she had survived. I had told her to come to the Pyramid, and even Pyramid had requested that, but she declined.
Unless it is an order, she will not leave Academy, and till now, Pyramid gave her freedom, but after today, I don"t think Pyramid will keep extremely talented healer like the teacher in Academy.
Like a teacher and many other healers and important people, I would have been an a.s.sa.s.sination target if not for me being protected in Pyramid.
I did not see regular people and stopped going to hospitals to heal. Even when I do that now and then, the patient is verified and has a complicated illness that other healers are powerless against.
As I read the feed, I was thousands of people getting deployed every second, filling one battlefield after another.
It is not just regular powerhouses that are leaving in doves for the battlefield but also super-powerhouses like Grandmaster. A couple of Grandmasters I knew got deployed in these few hours.
Earlier, the Pyramid had contacted me about deployment about my mentees; they wanted to send all of them to the battlefields, but I declined their request. There are still a few things I have to do before I send them out to fight.
I should be finished in two weeks; after that, they could go to war. They need to experience and challenge the progress they have made.
Ting Ting
I was busy sorting out the last details of a few experiments I had to perform on my mentees when my holowatch rang on with two mails one after another.
Both of them are from Pyramid; one is regarding the green fire I had asked for; they have opened an hour slot for me, I could go to a place where the green fire is and perform my experiments on it.
The second mail is about my appointment in the morning, it does say to whom I have to meet, but I have some idea about it.
I had just read the mail when my holowatch buzzed again, and this time it was with the call. It is from my teacher; I received it and talked to her for about fifteen minutes before hanging up.
"As expected," I said to myself. The teacher had finally received the order from the Pyramid; she was to report to the central medical center of Pyramid in three hours. They will not keep a talented healer like her outside when things become this dangerous.
After hanging up my call with the teacher, I worked last few details of very important experiments I have in these next two weeks. After I finished with that, I had called them to the arena while walking toward it.
There is no need to waste time; I will start making the preparations. This week going to be tight and very painful for them; I hope they will be held on and not break.
This week is going to be very important for them; all of them are ready for real things, especially Ida, who had done much better than I had imagined her to be; with Neela"s help, those three will get completely different treatment than they have got before.
