After a commotion yesterday, the Merciless clan had a lively atmosphere inside their barracks. The commotion reminded them of how powerless they were but it was different now. Herro told them what happened after they lost consciousness.

Everyone was surprised and couldn't believe that the weakest clanmate in their clan was able to achieve it. They had to double-check their leader's words. And yet, he said the same thing.

"Deputy sir! Is it true that you beat the shit out of those people yesterday?"

Their drunk feeling already abated when the fight was happening. So they had a clear memory of what happened yesterday. However, except their leader, none of them was able to witness the outcome of the commotion.

Faye asked him loudly. Even though his face was still swollen, he seemed to be lively after hearing those people from yesterday who had come to cause trouble to their group had suffered more than them, and the cause of it was no other than their weakest clanmate, the deputy of their clan.

Eman just nodded as a reply. He just arrived in the Clan barracks, but after stepping in, he was bombarded by questions by these three people.

"Woah, deputy dear, you're awesome!"

Exclaimed Paula.

"I see, I see, probably because those fools were already exhausted when they fought with us. So the deputy got a chance and finished them."

Said Fatsu who still couldn't believe that their deputy defeated those thugs in a fight of one versus five.

Eman just shrugged his shoulder. No need to say more about it. They were free to believe what they wanted to believe. The others came to ponder from Fatsu's words. 

They thought that there was a high possibility that it was the case. But even if that was the case, everyone was so happy regardless of any reason.

The most important was that they weren't only the ones who got their butts beaten to a pulp. The enemy was also.

Herro was taken aback when he noticed the eyes of his brother were on him. For some reason, after that fight, his brother seemingly became a different person. No. Actually, he understood why. It was because his brother lost his memories.

Only that, there were no more traces of his former self. It made him wonder how such a person changed to that extent after experiencing a memory loss. Maybe one of the reasons for his sudden change was his awakening. 

The weirdest thing about him was his strength. The brother he knew, although he wasn't afraid of commotion like that, he was weak. But yesterday, his brother singled out those five enemies. 

None of the enemies were able to land a hit on him. On the contrary, he beat them so easily. Whereas, Herro and the others could not even manage to hurt those people.

It further approved his theory that his brother not only awakened normally. He awakened and became a strong person. At least stronger than most awakened commoners and normal nobles. After all, those in great noble families were just too special. 

After feeling his brother's eyes on him, he cleared his throat and told them that the commotion yesterday wasn't only a simple commotion, it also meant that the mean goal of those people wasn't to abduct his attendant. 

"What do you mean, leader?"

Asked Fatsu with knitted brows.

"Some clan plotted on us."

Replied Herro.

"Plotted? No way! We didn't even join the clan's fight. We are an independent clan. So there's no way that some clan would plot against us."

Fatsu strongly denied it. Faye and Paula had remained quiet. They were listening to them.

"Well, that's what the leader of the gang said yesterday. Whether it's true or not, it's up for you to believe. My only advice is that please be careful from now on."

Said Herro.

"Wait!"

Suddenly, they heard someone exclaim.

"What Faye?"

Herro asked in wonder.

"These past days, I heard some gossip about the mysterious disbandment of a clan."

Said Faye.

"Hmm… now that you said that, Faye Dear. I also heard some darling talking about it in my class."

Paula interjected.

"....."

"Disbandment of a clan? Wait! Do you mean to the Redwing clan?"

Herro suddenly remembered.

"Exactly what I mean lead."

Faye nodded.

Fatsu blinked his eyes repeatedly. "Was it even true?" He asked.

"Well, it's the current talk everywhere in the academy. So, it must be." Said Faye.

"Dumbass, Faye, It could be gossip only."

Fatsu's voice raised a little.

"Whether it was real or not, we will know if we go and check it from the faculty."

Said Herro.

"Right!"

Eman just remained quiet while they were debating. After patching up their work for the day, they went to their respective classrooms.

Eman was about to walk the hallway towards his classroom when Faye called out to him.

"Why?"

He asked.

"I remembered, we don't have minor classes today. And our practical lesson will be held in the Oval Arena."

"Oval Arena?" 

"Yeah!"

"??"

Seeing the puzzled expression on Eman's face, Faye once again opened his mouth.

"It's a place where most students try their strength against other people…" Faye explained to him about the so-called Oval Arena.

They walked towards the eastern part of the academy. Eman was agitated because they already passed the Male Department's boundary.

But Faye told him that they were free to come here as long as they won't step inside the Female Department.

Then after turning right, they saw an entrance. On top of it was written boldly the word OVAL ARENA.

Below the words were other words. "Train Harder and Fight for Your Heart's Content."

He chose not to mind it and directly went inside the arena.

After they entered, Eman noticed that it was spacious inside. It had a vast oval-shaped empty plain. But it was surrounded by benches. The soil was dry and little grasses could be seen around.

His initial thought before entering was that it would be like a boxing arena. But looks like he was wrong.

Many people, probably students, could be seen sitting on the benches. And in the middle, two students were facing each other. Also, he was surprised to see some females inside. They were sitting on the benches while seemingly cheering on the two individuals in the middle.

Noticing his eyes were on the female's students, "hehe, surprise?"

Faye chuckled and asked.

"This place is free for all students. Either males and females are free to enter this area.

So most of the time, many male students would come here to try their strength against other people. Well, some might have another reason for coming here. After all, there are many beauties in the audience.

Unfortunately, this place isn't suitable for someone like me who has below-average strength. Those who came here were mostly youngsters from well-known families.

Well, we can also come here anytime we want to try our strength against the other but.

For me, I rather not. Just looking at those many people that will be watching me being beaten by my opponent will only bring a negative effect on me. So I often chose not to come here. Hahaha."

Faye forced a drily laugh.

He was able to understand his worries. Faye must be afraid of embarrassing himself.

Faye, once again, opened his mouth.

"Most people who came here are those from the top clans. In this place, no one can lie about the result of their duel. So the top clans mostly fought here. Those who come out victorious will get a reward, depending on what they were betting on and the defeated will have to pay the price. Oh, right I forgot to tell you, deputy sir. Or maybe you already know but since you lost your memory I will say it somehow."

Eman nodded.

"Those clans who are at the top will get many benefits which may help the clan members to breakthrough faster than the others."

"I see."

Actually Eman already knew about it. He got the information regarding it from the disbanded Redwing Clan.

One of the reasons he asked them to disband their clan was because the clan was a very important association in this academy. But it was only what he knew regarding the clan. He asked Faye to continue as he felt he would learn more from him.

Faye nodded and continued explaining.

"A person without a clan could be exploited easily. It means he could not say no to a duel invitation.

He learned that every student had an equivalent of 100 academy points upon admission.

To increase their points, they must win a competition or issue a duel against other students. Of course, you need to bet your AP(Academy Points) to increase it.

However, whether you win or lose, it was up to your strength.

In regards to the importance of a clan, students who were members of a clan could say no to a challenge invitation. It was against the rule of the academy. The reason why it was implemented was that the academy wanted to emphasize the importance of a family. But in truth, it was in recognition of the XIII great families.

A student who has his AP reached zero points would be suspended in the academy.

Like what was stated a while ago, solo students could say no to a challenge invitation. Whereas the student in a clan could decline the challenge through a Clan Protection System…"
