Chapter 8: Chapter Eight: Lucian Led A Group of People to Start Trouble

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Seeing Hughes start to move forward, Lucian was ecstatic.

Finally, he couldn’t hold it in anymore?

Come out and explain. It’s best if you refute me.

The more you explain, the more you would lose face today.

Don’t blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being garbage.

During the three years when Hughes was cultivating magic alone, Lucian with his outstanding talent successfully obtained the title of genius in Hiro City.

However, what made him angry was that his father, Duke Mark Oscar, never praised him.

Not only that, his father often compared Hughes to him, asking him to give up playing and focus on training.

As time passed, Lucian’s hatred for Hughes grew deeper and deeper.


If Hughes was still the famous genius in the imperial city, it would be fine. He would admit defeat as his talent wasn’t as good.

However, Hughes had already become a trash who had inferior elemental affinity at that time. What right did Hughes have to be compared to him!

“Make Way.”

An indifferent and seemingly emotionless voice tore apart Lucian’s fantasies.

Hughes pushed Lucian away and brought Audrey down the stairs.

How dare you ignore me? You actually dare to ignore me!

Bastard, you’re courting death!

Lucian flew into a rage out of humiliation. He quickly stepped forward and blocked Hughes.

Following that, he recited an incantation and a crimson magic array pattern lit up in the air. A red fireball emerged from the center of the Magic Array Pattern and floated in mid-air with a threatening heat.

“You can’t leave. As a candidate of Hiro Royal Academy, I won’t allow trash like you to tarnish the reputation of the academy.

“Today, you can either publicly announce that you’re giving up on participating in the entrance examination, or release your magic and fight me.”

Saying this, Lucian raised his head proudly and spoke in a clear voice,

“I won’t take advantage of you either. This time, I’ll only use the strength of a magic apprentice.”

Lucian’s righteous appearance immediately attracted a wave of cheers. Most of them were lackeys that he had recruited himself, and the other part were enthusiastic citizens who were enjoying the show and didn’t mind things stirring up.

“You can try.”

“Do you believe that if you make me lose a strand of hair today, my father will be able to eradicate your Oscar family from Hiro City tomorrow!”

Hughes still had the same indifferent expression as before. There was not a hint of shame or anger on his face.

Lucian was just a young boy who did not know the affairs of the world. Even if he had the courage, he would not dare to attack him in front of so many people.

After all, the House of Duke Tulip was not to be trifled with. Even Hughes’ brother Vance alone was not someone that the Oscar family could afford to offend much less Duke Tulip Norton.

Vance was a seventh level Grand Knight of the temple, an existence that required countless people to look up to.

Duke Bauhinia was a businessman who made his fortune through flattery. How would he dare to offend their family.

One had to know that in the end, power talked in this world.

“You… you…”

Lucian’s face alternated between red and white.

Hughes was right. Although his father was a duke like Norton, Norton was also an eighth rank saint magister in addition to the title of Duke.

His father, on the other hand, had no cultivation at all. He was just an official who managed the internal affairs of the king.

It was fine if it was just a small matter. The people above him would only treat it as a child’s play and ignore it.

However, if he really hurt Hughes, he would bring great trouble to his family.

If his father was faced direct pressure from the Tulip family, his father would definitely hand him over.

“If you don’t dare to do anything, then get lost. Don’t be an eyesore in front of us, you clown!”

Audrey pushed Lucian away and held Hughes’s arm as she walked out of the crowd.

As she walked, Audrey grumbled to Hughes:

“What a downer. My good mood for the day was ruined by this pig-like idiot. What bad luck.”

Idiot!

How dare she call me an idiot!

Lucian was exasperated, but there was nothing he could do.

A mouthful of blood rushed to his throat. In a splash, blood instantly dyed the stairs in front of the theater.

As he watched the Hughes duo walk further and further away, Lucian could no longer hold back the anguish in his heart.

He pointed in the direction where the two of them had gone and roared at the top of his lungs:

“Hughes, if you’re a man, we’ll have a showdown after the exam. The loser will get the hell out of the imperial capital and shall never return.

“Hughes, do you dare?”

“Answer me!”

On a distant street, Audrey hugged Hughes’s arm and asked with a puzzled look.

“Second brother, why didn’t you beat him up? That Lucian is simply too arrogant. I get angry just by looking at him.”

Hughes smiled and reached out to help his sister tidy up the loose hair stuck to her forehead.

“Don’t you think that a street fight like this is a very childish thing?”

“With my strength, beating him up is indeed very simple. But after the fight, what benefit will I get?”

Audrey thought for a moment and said slyly,

“How can there be no benefits? At least it can make me feel happy!”

Then, she rolled her eyes at Hughes and said coquettishly,

“Bad second brother, you don’t feel sorry for me at all. You didn’t even help me beat up that detestable fellow. Not only did he dirty your beloved sister’s eyes, but he also polluted your sister’s ears.

“I don’t care. You have to compensate me.”

Hughes was stunned. What did this have to do with anything.

But when he thought of how his sister had come to visit him countless times over the past three years, Hughes’s heart softened.

After acquiring the system and refining the anti-magic stone, Hughes was in a state of cultivation all the time.

This kind of cultivation was not only fully automatic, but it was also all-rounded. There was no need for Hughes to expend any mental energy.


Everything he did was training. It was also good to spend more time with his sister.

 “I really should compensate you. Tell me how you want me to compensate you.”

“Yes, I want to eat kebabs. You must roast them yourself.” Audrey blinked and asked tentatively.

“No problem. There should still be some sauce at home, right? If not, I’ll go buy it.”

Audrey was in high spirits as she continued to make her requests:

“I want to go boating as well. The ones that don’t need a paddle and you just drift along with the waves!”

“I also want to sit on those big wooden kites one more time. This time, you have to keep holding the rope. You must not tie it to the crooked tree again.”

The Sun was setting as the two figures walked side by side.

The shorter one raised her head to make her request from time to time, while the taller one kept nodding her head in agreement.
