Chapter 140 - The Ferkelsen Academy Festival [Mischievous Guests of Honor and the Memory of the First Encounter]

While Yuta was busy with his thoughts, he heard a knock on his office door.

So he adjusted his position and facial expressions, to speak in his usual tone of voice while looking towards the door, with his eyes closed: "You may come in, Maximilian, Deputy Duke Reinhardt de Moliard."

Maximilian's face appeared in astonishment as he listened to Uta Caseral's words. He entered his office and found him sitting in a chair next to a window overlooking the atmosphere of the Vrselkin Academy.

Yuta got straight to the point without letting Maximilian say a single word: "You want me to welcome the guests coming to Vrselkin Academy, aren't you right, Maximilian?"

A smile of admiration appeared on Maximilian's face as he looked towards Yuta, whose facial features were incomprehensible.

However, he did not seem surprised, he had searched around Yuuta, and although the information about him was normal, it became suspicious after he left the Caseral family.

He spoke, breaking the silence as he looked at him, trying to understand what Yuuta was thinking and why Reinhardt had such confidence in his abilities: "Yes, that's right. You, Geia Guilford from the Legends Class, and Cloud Yulghead from the Ordinary Class, will welcome the guests."

Yuta opened his eyes as he looked at him, an incomprehensible smile on his lips that made Maximilian feel goosebumps: "We will be very hospitable, Master Maximilian. Just wait and you will see the beauty of this year's festival."

Maximilian remained silent for several seconds before bowing slightly as he spoke: "I beg your pardon, I will be leaving now."

Maximilian left the room directly because he felt that he was facing a person whom you should not make your enemy at all costs.

After Maximilian left, a spark of determination appeared in Yuta's eyes. He had to regain his full strength before any untoward trouble occurred. He spoke in a calm tone of voice while looking around: "At the very least, if I hurry, it will take me two years to fully regain my strength."

He then left his room towards the meeting place, which was at the gate of Versalkin Academy.

While Yuta was heading towards the place where he had to receive the guests of honor, he met Jiya on his way, heading to the same place.

"Good morning, Jia Gilford." Yuta's tone of voice was light as he gave a beautiful smile.

However, Jia's facial features did not change as she looked at him, carrying within them a degree of disgust that he noticed quite easily.

However, he did not care that he did not have to justify any action he took. He thought she liked him as much as she did, but he wasn't interested.

Then she spoke, breaking the tense atmosphere between them: "Good morning, Yuta Caseral. It seems that you will be among those who will welcome the guests."

"Yes, I hope there won't be any problems with our strange smell."

Jia did not understand the meaning of his words, but she decided to continue on their way without saying another word, as Jia did not trust Yuta at all.

She had seen him do many things that in her eyes made her just a disgusting, vile scoundrel, and yet, she was forced to accompany him to the place where they were to receive guests.

A quarter of an hour later, they had arrived at the gate of Versalkin Academy, only to find the student Claude Yulgade from the regular class waiting for them at the gate.

His facial features were a mixture of enthusiasm, tension, and anxiety. He was the one to be received by great powers from inside and outside the world in which he lived.

He turned his gaze towards Yuuta and Jia who were heading towards him, which made his tension increase, as they were the two strongest students in the academy, and one of them was one of the superpowers in the world.

Utah was the owner of the most famous technology companies, which is considered the only one of its kind because they are still in a Victorian era free of these things, and Gia Guilford, the daughter of Duke Aster Guilford, the most powerful pillar of the human empire.

Cloud spoke in a tense tone while bowing respectfully: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Yuta Caseral and Mrs. Jia Guilford."

Jia looked at him for several seconds before ignoring him, and the same applies to Yuta, they did not come to make friends, but to complete their work and leave the place as if nothing had happened.

Which made Cloud feel embarrassed, so he followed them without speaking a single word, as the pressure of their presence commanded him to remain silent.

They head outside Vrselkin Academy, to find the atmosphere full of happiness and laughter among local residents and visitors of different races and genders.

It was a single day when humans, orcs, barbarians, dwarves, elves, and angels were all equal, although the arrival of the dwarves was almost impossible.

However, their unexpected vision made Cloud and Jia feel shocked, as they were not accustomed to this. As for Yuta, he didn't care whether they were there or not.

To direct their attention to a group of people, their number was not small, and yet they were not human, they were leaders of great sects and clans who were late for several reasons.

Rather, they were the leaders of the empires of elves, barbarians, orcs, angels, and dwarves, and the rulers of the elves and dragons, walking in one row, which increased the shock of each of them, although Jia's shock was not apparent, but Cloud's shock was prominent.

Jiya hit his shoulder to correct his situation, and he gathered himself together while looking at them.

Yuta turned to them, with a diplomatic smile on his face after concealing the scent of the hybrid from his body, and spoke in a calm tone full of respect while bowing slightly as an expression of respect.

Which made all of them surprised by his tact, and most of them was the Dragon Lord Afrius, who had made Yuuta his adopted son after giving him the crimson fang that only the imperial family possesses, to look at him with an invisible smile.

However, both of them pretended not to know so as not to cause any unexpected problems.

The Elf Ruler Veronia spoke with a slight smile on her face, as she looked towards Yuta: "It has been more than 8 months since we met again. Thank you again for helping us in this battle."

A malicious smile appeared on Yuta's face as he listened to Feronia's words, who were trying to annoy and insult the Orc Emperor, as they had fought higher orcs and giant ogres.

Although the Goblin Lord Cavlior died at his own hands while they were in the city of Uspeckers, the Orc Emperor is still alive.

He spoke in a respectful tone as he looked towards Emperor Ektarviel, who was technically called a Hero, and he was not the only one, the Emperor of Dwarves, Angels, and Barbarians all did the same, unlike the Elf Ruler who was not named that, as that name was given to her sister.

"Thank you for the compliment, Lady Veronia. However, I understand that the Orc Emperor Ektarviel is upset and ashamed that his people have violated the will of the Champion of Peace Argon, right, Master Ektarviel?"

Ektarviel's face appeared in astonishment as he listened to Uta Casseral's words, and he laughed out loud as he looked towards the Elf Empress Veronia.

He then spoke with feigned anger, because he was the one who wanted to occupy the Elf Empire to expand its lands: "You are right, Uta Casseral. They were a group of rebels who tried to discredit the Orc Empire for refusing the order to expand at the expense of other lands."

A slight smile remained on Yuta's face, hidden within it was clear sarcasm, as each of them made themselves rule vast lands in the Central Continent. The Human Empire is depicted on its map as ruling the entire Central Continent, even though it legally rules 54% completely, while the other 46% is considered its areas of control, but at the same time they are considered parts of the territories of other empires.

Or what were called peaceful lands, because they were considered lands belonging to both empires at the same time, in order to avoid battles and wars. The lands belonged to those who served them, to those who worked in them and no one else.

On top of that, they were establishing cities and cults within each other's empires.

It would have been considered a world ruled by a single empire when the details were not well known.

As for kingdoms, they do not place their capitals there to avoid any unexpected problems.

However, Yuta was aware that peace would not last long, and that wars for lands would return after a year, two, or 30 years, and everyone's fate would be a war that would end on both sides through the intervention of the Dragon Emperor Afrius, the ruler of the Alawites, Julius, the Demon King Mallard, or his son, Son Goku, when each side reached the point of exhaustion.

Empress of Angels Noriana spoke in a respectful tone as she looked at both the Elf Empress Veronia and the Orc Emperor Ektarviel: "Thank you, Master Uta Casseral. You did the right thing and I will never forget it."

"Thank you, Lady Noriana... Then let us take you on a tour of Versalkin Academy, it is not polite to leave our guests standing at the door."

Then they can enter without saying anything to avoid any unexpected problems, as talking a lot results in many slips of the tongue that lead to problems that no one likes to find himself in the middle of.

As they walked around, the gazes of the Dwarf Emperor, the Elves, and the Angels moved around them in admiration, as they looked at a place that combined an architectural masterpiece with a building that would make any dwarf cry with emotion. Although millions of years have passed without any restoration, the Verselken Academy has remained intact, to the point that it has become a city in its own right, and is now known as the city of Gusembourg.

As for the elves and angels, they were the prestige of the place and the sciences present in it, and on top of that, Alessandra had an excellent relationship with the leader of the Heavenly Light Tribe, which was considered the starting point for the establishment of the Elf Light Empire.

Which made each of them feel comfortable and happy, as did their ancestors, except for the orcs and barbarians who participated in building the Versalkin Academy, making it a single symbol of the cooperation of several races.

Even though it belonged to the Human Empire, they considered it a relic that could not be forgotten from any of their history books.

To continue on their way without saying anything, the trip was going excellently, as they would answer any of them's questions about something. Cloud or Jia would answer, or Yuta in rare cases if he felt that a direct answer would cause a disaster.

Julius spoke while looking at the bird that had landed on his right wing: "Your world is beautiful and full of life, unlike my world, in which there are only us Alawites, which makes spending time on work nothing else."

Yuta sighed in indistinct annoyance as he understood Julius' intention of teasing both the Elf Empress Feronia and the Noriana Angels.

However, he decided to go along with his speech in a way that did not achieve his goal: "You are right, ruler of the Alawites. You have wings and the ability to use the ether quite easily, but you have nothing in your world except yourself."

"It is the opposite for us. There are many races and genders, which makes our life beautiful outside of work. Even if we seem far apart, we will unite to defeat the internal enemies who try to divide us."

Julius kept looking at Yuta with a slight smile, yet he felt afraid of him. He knew that Yuta had discovered his attempts to cause trouble to divide both the elves and angels, and ignite a civil war within the world.

They continued on their way, ignoring each other's looks, which were a mixture of admiration, caution, and astonishment at Yuta's abilities, which they considered exceptional.

At the same time, he was a dangerous enemy that they didn't like to let grow any longer, which Yuuta was aware of, after all he wasn't with any of them except Averius, whom he considered a temporary ally for him until his usefulness ran out.

However, they then continued their way around Versalkin Academy, while talking among themselves and asking questions from time to time.

"You have wonderful swords, Master Yuta Caseral, especially the Kamish sword that you fought with when you were on Jigua Island," said the Dwarf Emperor Argon while looking at Yuta with scrutiny, a glow coming out of his eyes like any dwarf.

"But there is a better sword than that. I mean the one I used against Gowther MacTire in the magic contest. It is a unique sword. It does not appear to have been made of any metal or anything I have seen in my life of nearly a thousand years."

There were signs of astonishment on the faces of Veronia, Noriana, and Argon, shock on Cloud's face, slight astonishment on Jeya, and looks of admiration on the faces of Averius, Ektarviel, and Julius.

However, Yuta did not show any concern as he understood his meaning regarding the Existence Severing Sword with which he fought against Gowther McTire, yet he had no intention of showing it.

It was attached to his ward, and using it in that state could cause damage beyond what he currently suffered from using it while they were in Uspeckers City.

However, Yuta was unfazed, he was the one who chose not to come with his original body in the first place, and his current body needed to evolve, so he might decide to evolve it to the second level to be able to use 20% of his power.

He can then use his wing and some of his abilities with restrictions instead of being completely sealed, because in the end nothing comes without a flaw. After all, when you get something, you lose something else in return, to even out things.

"Thank you, Emperor Starfall, for praising me, but as for the second sword, it is tied to the ability I used that day, which is why I am unable to manifest it anytime I want, unlike the Kamish Sword. I thank you, Empress Feronia, without it I would not have obtained the Sword of Life, which was an important part of its creation." Yuta's tone of voice held a hint of happiness and a slight sadness as he looked towards Starfall and Feronia, who was showing some signs of confusion from being suddenly brought into the topic.

However, after hearing his words, it made her remember when she gave him the Life Ruler's Sword and her meeting with him that day, which made her unable to forget him until now, so that he would come back again like cold water flowing in her mind.

In the room where the Elf Queen was located, there was a beautiful room fused with a giant tree that could be several kilometers wide. It was a room made of fine marble with gold inlay at the end. Veronia was looking at Yuta with calm eyes, trying to understand what he was, as she had heard that he had created the incarnation of several entities with terrifying power.

However, when she meets him, she sees him as just a 14-year-old child. From his clothes, she discovered that he was from a noble family, so she spoke in a calm tone in her heart after she tried to examine the extent of his strength, but failed every time: "He is very strong, yet there is something illogical about him. His strength and his body are unstable, as if his strength is trying to destroy his body, while his body is constantly suppressing it."

"He seems to have noticed this beforehand. From his calm facial features, his confident stance, his slight smile, and his eyes that hold a significant amount of determination, intelligence, and confidence, it is impossible for something like this to be hidden from him."

Veronia cleared her mind while looking at him at times, and at her followers at other times, with some sarcasm that the person they had tried to kill a short while ago had become their savior whom they would congratulate.

She spoke in a calm tone, breaking the silence that had reigned over the place for several minutes: "Hello, Yuta Caseral. You are the eldest son of Count Yamirzas. Who would have thought that we would see you with our own eyes, and not just rumors."

Yuta's gaze remained calm as he looked at her and her followers who were watching his every move to protect the Empress, Yuta was still dangerous since they had attacked him earlier.

However, he couldn't stop himself from feeling satisfied that he was the target he would soon obtain, the elf's sword of the God of Life.

It had been his goal from the beginning, and Empress Feronia was aware of it, since everyone knew they had this sword, and taking the opportunity to take it made sense.

On top of that, they were unable to use it because they were not recognized as masters of it due to them not maintaining the balance properly.

"Yes, as you said, Empress Feronia, I am Jutta Caseral, son of Count Yamirzas." Yuta's tone of voice was full of respect as he knelt on one foot.

Which made Veronia look at him with looks full of astonishment at his actions and the way he spoke, which was possessed by great diplomats, and impossible for a 14-year-old child to have.

She turned her attention to her daughter, Kinsley, who was holding the sword of the Ruler of Life in her hand, and headed towards Yuta after she understood what her mother meant from her looks.

Kinsley was trying to suppress her anger and hatred, as she was disturbed by the idea of giving a sacred sword to a hybrid entity that was, to her, dirty blood.

To give it to him, Yuta raised both his hands while he kneeled in respect for the sword, which caused Kinsley to show some astonishment at his respect for the sword even though he was not an elf.

He carried him with a slight smile on his face to achieve his goal, so Kinsley left the place without saying anything in order not to reveal that she was the daughter of Empress Veronia Leotta. She was wearing the clothes of followers and not the clothes of the ruling family, as a tradition to protect the heirs from assassination or revealing their identity to strangers or potential enemies.

Yuta turned his gaze to the Sword of Life, which was green in color as if it were green jade, with a luxurious appearance, and had several beautiful engravings on it. Its appearance was sharp and beautiful, while life energy was powerfully emanating from it, declaring that it had found a owner worthy of its use.

To inspect it for a few minutes to know if it was real or fake, they would use an imitation sword for occasions where entities were not of their race.

He realized that the sword was real, but he was still in disbelief that they had given it to him so easily, until the situation did not last long, because the hilt of the sword refused to leave his hand.

Which made him realize that the sword was coming to him with or without their consent, as he possessed the genes of angels and demons who together were considered better than elves in terms of maintaining balance. The presence of life and chaos in one body made his body balanced between good and evil.

This made him feel good because he realized that his choice of Yuta's body was right, as it was suitable for his future plans in this world.

This made Veronia and her followers shocked upon realization, the smell of the hybrid Yuta was very clear to them, yet it was complementary to each other. Evil and good were represented by the genes of angels and demons, and chaos and order were represented by the genes of Saiyans and dragons.

"He's a chosen one, then. Choosing the sword indicates that Yuuta is the one who will unite Ensei. It seems like I'm setting my expectations too high. However, his angel genes are strange. They're close to the Alawites' genes. They seem to be sealed at the moment and need to be activated. Ahhh, we'll see what the future holds." Veronia spoke in her heart as she looked towards Yuuta who was inspecting the sword before placing it in his own dimensional space.

Then she spoke, relieving the atmosphere of tension and shock that was on her followers' features at accepting the Sword of the Ruler of Life: "I wanted to give you a gift in exchange for your noble assistance to us. Take the Sword of the Ruler of Life, it was made from the Ruler of Life and her blood."

"However, I'm curious. Are you going to combine both the Sword of the God of Destruction and the Gem of the God of Time to make the Sword of Kamish? But even if you combine them, where will you get black fire to forge it? The ones who have it are the dwarves, and they won't welcome a hybrid with demon genes like you."

Yuta was astonished by the intelligence and malice of Empress Feronia, who tried to obtain information from him. However, he did not intend to reveal any information about what he was doing, and this was not a secret to Feronia.

Yuta immediately left the place without saying anything else. His stay had expired, and it was the right time to leave as her followers were still in shock.

Veronia said admiringly as she looked at where Yuta was standing: "The world will be turned upside down by this boy."

Feronia said with a slight smile as she looked at Yuta, and all of the Empire Leaders, Dragon Lords, and High Ones were looking at him with looks that demanded an explanation:

"Yes, as Yuuta said, but the reason we gave him the Life Lord Sword is because the sword itself chose him as its master. Moreover, if the Life and Destruction Sword and the Time Lord Jewel had not chosen him as their masters, he would not have been able to create the Kamish Sword in the first place."

Every one of them showed signs of outward conviction and inward caution. The making of the Kamish sword indicated one thing, something they would not want to happen.

However, they decided to ignore the matter since they were in their lands, the heads of the Grand Dukedoms and Sword Saint Azar Nozaki were currently present, and the thought of harming him would lead to their death at worst.

They went on their way immediately after that, trying not to mention the matter again.

Several hours had passed of wandering around Verselkin Academy and Gusembourg City, making Cloud tired as he was currently still at the Master rank, and the pressure of accompanying figures like them would be extremely exhausting for him.

Meanwhile, at 20:34 p.m., both Yuta and Jiya were returning to their homes, their looks carrying an unobtrusive disgust at what they heard of attempts to cause complex problems, had they not calmed the situation down every time, which made Jiya regret the second she agreed to receive them and accompany them.

Yuta said as he separated from Jiya: "Evening aunt."

"And so do you."

Each of them returns approximately 12 hours later, while they supervise the wanderings of the rulers of the worlds and the leaders of the empires, and attempts to prevent the outbreak of a civil war that will continue for several centuries.

However, this was only the first day, and the remaining six days remained, filled with unexpected and somewhat unfortunate events.
