Chapter 238: Conversing with Instructor Stuwart

Inside the faculty office, Eman is currently talking to Instructor Stuwart.

“A clan battle competition?” Eman asked.

“Yes. Have you forgotten that every year the academy holds a clan battle competition to measure the strength and influence of each participating clan in the competition?”

“Uh, I’m sorry, sir. In fact, I lost most of my memory. When I joined a subjugation mission, something happened that almost killed me. Fortunately, I survived. It’s just that, unfortunately, I lost most of my memory.”

Eman explained.

“Is that so? If so, the rumor I heard is true...”

Eman stared at the talking instructor. “Which one are you referring to, sir?”

.....

“Everything. Your participation in a subjugation mission and loss of memory, as well as the unexpected awakening of your magical power,” Instructor Stuwart answered Eman’s inquiry.

He honestly didn’t expect it. Eman replied, “Uh, Yes. Everything you said is right,” he confirmed.

The instructor nodded slightly. “I see.” Then, he opened his mouth again. “By the way, is your participation in the subjugation mission due to the Mandatory Military Regime of the academy?”

When Eman heard this, he said, “Ha?” It was the first time he heard it.

Seeing his reaction, Instructor Stuwart rubbed his chin, seemingly understanding his reaction. “Hm, don’t worry about that, it looks like you forgot about that too, huh.”

Eman’s only response was, “I’m sorry.” He knew nothing about it. All he knew was that his body’s previous host had joined the subjugation mission because of the hardships of life. It was the first time Eman heard about the Mandatory Military Regime. It wasn’t in the previous host’s diary.

Mandatory, huh? I see. That’s why. That is why many wealthy young people also joined that mission. All of that is due to the mandatory requirement of the academy.

He would often ask himself why those young people still had to tax their lives when they were wealthy enough. It seems hard to imagine that they would want to take the risk, joining a dangerous mission, where their lives are at stake. Especially, because it only depends on luck to get valuable items in the mission. Eman was really lucky to be in Uncle Ronny’s group. And it just so happened that they saw a lot of gold coins at that time.

As Eman was thinking about the Mandatory Military Regime, his attention was suddenly drawn to the slight cough of the instructor he was talking to. Eman looked into the eyes of his interlocutor. Seeing that Eman’s attention had returned to him, the instructor’s mouth opened again.

“For now, let’s forget about the Mandatory Military Regime of the academy. Let’s talk about the competition of clans first,” said Instructor Stuwart.

Eman nodded in agreement with him.

“As I said before, every year the academy launches a competition for clans. Any clan can attend, but it depends on the recommendation of the teachers. So even if one clan qualifies to join, it is still not certain that they will all be able to join. Each teacher or instructor will represent a clan they will support. This time, I want to represent the Merciless clan.”

“Eh?” Eman was stunned to hear this.

Instructor Stuwart, on the other hand, grinned slightly at his reaction.

“Fufu. I know what I said was shocking- ”

“But why the Merciless Clan, sir?”

“Hm, why you say? Maybe, it’s because I have no one else to represent. I have a low prestige in the academy and I also have a low privilege that I can give support to the clan that I can represent. So maybe no other clan wants me to be their representative.”

Eman noticed the sadness in the instructor’s voice and face as he spoke it. But it doesn’t affect him.

“Is that so?”

The instructor nodded in response.

At least the instructor didn’t hide that fact, he thought. “Clan competition, huh. But why does the teacher need to represent?”

Seemingly waiting for him to ask it, “I know you will ask that...” he said. Then, he first adjusted his seat and took a deep breath before continuing. His face turned serious at that moment. “Because it is also based on whether a teacher is worthy and will remain in his position. Maybe you’ve noticed that this academy has a meritocratic kind of management.”

Eman stared at the instructor and thought, ‘The instructor was right.’

He had known about it for a long time. “But what if you lose? Isn’t that just useless too? Maybe it’s better if you represent a strong clan, sir. ”

“Yes. That would have been better. But as I said before, no strong clan wants to have a representative who can give little help. All well-known clans will prefer to have a representative who can give a lot of help.”

“Hmm...” Eman was silent for a moment because of what the instructor said. In fact, he was right.

“But, why did you choose the Merciless clan, sir? Isn’t there another clan that is a little higher than the Merciless clan? I’m sure you’ll find a better clan than the Merciless clan. Compared to others, we have only a few members and most of the members are still weak. ”

“You’re right. Maybe the reason is that my classroom student is the leader... ”

Instructor Stuwart said while grinning slightly. It looks like the news that he took over the leadership of the Merciless clan was already known to many. Eman just sighed at his response. But he still doubts that this is the only reason he had. “I’m sure that’s not the only reason,” he said.

Seeing his doubtful gaze, “fufu...” the instructor chuckled slightly. “Looks like I can’t hide something from you, huh. Very good. Just as I expected.” Instructor Stuwart’s face became serious again. “You’re right. The very reason why the Merciless clan was my choice was because of its win against the Red Drake clan. In short-”

“I’m the reason why you chose the Merciless clan...”

It was Eman who added what he had to say.

Later, Eman decided to consider the instructor’s offer first before he made a decision. He can’t decide right away. All members of the Merciless Clan need to discuss this matter. Instructor Stuwart told him that if he had any questions about the competition he would just approach him and ask. The instructor also said that the competition will start in the next few months, so he still has plenty of time to think about it. When he left the faculty office, he went straight back to the Merciless clan barracks where his sister and Sol were waiting.
