When the four from Water Academy saw Lin Xiao and them, they were also taken aback.

The warrior leader held a shield and a single-handed hatchet, he looked up at the gradually vanishing faint yellow signal.
After verifying it, he started looking all around for something.

Finally, he saw the map on the grass and calmed down.

Good thing that Charles never went back on his word and left the map according to their agreement, the only problem was that the ‘inconvenience’ he left at the same time was truly intractable.

He was called Veblen, the leader of the Water Academy team, an intermediate fifth-grade warrior that was adept at using a shield and single-handed hatchet.
The reason that he could arrive with his team so quickly wasn’t by chance.

Not long ago, they met Heino Academy, they thought it would be a fierce battle, but the leader Charles didn’t want to fight and wanted to strike a deal.

Veblen has heard of prince Charle’s name but has never met him before, when he first saw that redheaded ‘girl’ he thought it was Charles’s sister or something, and treated Devoru as the leader.

After he finally clarified his identity, Charles bitterly extended a deal, Charles wanted them to help him get rid of an annoying opponent, and in turn, he would give them the map to the silver vault.

Veblen didn’t agree to his suggestion initially, why did they have to make a deal, why not just fight?

But he miscalculated, that spearman, Devoru, was way too strong, he faced their attacks head-on by himself while protecting Charles, skillfully and easily.

Veblen soon realized that it was pointless, if they didn’t want to fight, then they couldn’t stop them from leaving.
Veblen then helplessly agreed to this deal that hurt their pride.

In order to obtain the map, they agreed to be a hired thug and eliminate a team.

That team was Loran Academy.

It’s not like Veblen didn’t understand, he could use one map to make them massacre one another, no matter who the victor was, Charles wouldn’t have to lift a finger.

Charles wasn’t scheming it was an open plot, they could only accept and fight!

But how?

“Lin Xiao, what should we do?” It was a crucial moment, Caesar had to listen to the leader, “Should we continue with our handsome guy operation?”

His words made Lin Xiao feel uncomfortable.

“Are you an idiot? They already came to us, what operation, do you think you’re really that handsome? Can you even turn a muscle man bent?”

“What does bent mean?”

“It’s… a secret technique that only handsome men can use! Its effect is that of turning your opponent’s sexual orientation, and bind you together.”

“I don’t understand…”

“Then let me phrase it differently.”

In between, he looked at Shen DaiYing and Rosie, and seriously ordered.

“Caesar, you’re responsible for the main offense! Keep an eye on that shield-bearer, it’s best if you can break it… Rosie, you’re responsible for covering him, don’t let him get bullied… Sister Ying, find an opportunity to break inside their formation and slaughter their only magician… oh no, it’s enough just to injure him.”

Lin Xiao fired off orders as fast as he could.

“We don’t have to hold back this time! Use all your strength to send them home! Then we’ll take the silver vault map and get even with Charles!”

A gentle breeze swept past, blowing Lin Xiao’s short black hair all over, he mobilized the forces and his passion made him seem like a seasoned general.

“So Lin Xiao, why are you moving back?” Rosie squinted and looked down on him.

This guy was giving out orders while sneakily moving backward and stood behind the team!

“Rosie, stop with the nonsense, I-I never moved back! You don’t understand, … this is called a strategic shift!”

“Bullshit, you just want to slack off!”

“N-no way! I’m the leader, and I have the crystal, so I can’t take any risks, I didn’t move back to protect myself, it was all for the team!”

“Peh! Then give me the crystal!”

“No, no… other than protecting the crystal, I still have to protect my maid! She’s a normal person and doesn’t have any magic, it would be terrible if she was injured!” Lin Xiao quickly stood behind Elena, placed his hands on her shoulders, and stuck his face next to her ears like he was worried about her getting snatched away.

Unexpectedly, Elena didn’t resist.

She looked at Rosie expressionlessly, then raised her heel slightly.

“Ah! Owwwww… Elena, w-why did you step on me? I…”

“Tsk… enough.” Elena frowned and said, “If you keep dragging it on, the map is going to get taken.”

“Ah?”

Lin Xiao just noticed that Water Academy was already on the move!

“！”

The magician cast a rarely seen spell.

With the shield-bearer as head, the four people closely huddled together, in a formation that protected the magician while advancing.
Unlike the circular magic circuits of normal magic, the yellow magic power dispersed from his hands, it was like the translucent fog was alive, it scattered into all directions looking for its targets.

As soon as that food touched his teammate’s bodies it quickly got absorbed.
In a blink of an eye, the fog vanished and a strange ‘skin’ appeared on all of them.

“Strengthening magic, rock skin?”

Lin Xiao opened his mouth and stared at the deep yellow ‘skin’ on these people from Water Academy and appeared rather surprised.

They brought a strengthening magician? They really went all out.
