The game 'The Magus Games' will be held in seven days, the game arena is placed in the Meteor Tail Rain Forest in the Grasslands district. The game will last for five days, breaking each team into individuals, where participants will start at the starting line at several points in the Meteor Tail Rain Forest area. Several magical items and weapons are placed at several points. Within two days, the participants must regroup with their complete teams at the Tower and enter the second game round.
There will only be one team that will be the winner.
"What about teams with incomplete members?" I keep wondering, something that could be the worst possible thing.
"Of course, it will be finished, to reduce the number of participants in the arena."
Everyone was silent at the dining table, no one even wanted to continue finishing their food. Professor Lupine is quite skilled at causing fear.
"T-t-t-then, why do we have to be separated when we start the game?" Wendy couldn't overcome her fear. The spoiled girl's face looked pale, her voice trembling.
"Massacre at the start of the game."
No one can stop this game, each kingdom sends one academic to take part in this deadly game. History repeated itself, how many young Magus had to be sacrificed, just to minimize the deaths of the Magus soldiers? Replacing war with 'The Magus Games'. The worry that happened to me and the others, we all thought about the fate of our families at home.
Before we went to the training room, Professor Lupine had gathered a lot of important information that the man had obtained, including the participants of the team we would face later in the slaughter arena.
Teams from Andalus, in addition to our Hill Valley Team. Firstly, Team Calista is led by a girl with short black hair, named Selena Aether.
The more I looked at her, the girl named Selena looked very similar to Helen. It's just that their hair styling is different. But, that face, those eyebrows, those lips, those eyeballs. The two of them were like twin sisters.
[Team Calista]
[Leader: Selena Aether]
[Spirit Magic Level: 15]
[Primary Elemental: Lightning]
[Elemental Attribute: Smoke Charm]
[Magical Weapon: Sword]
Information is displayed on the television screen. The short-haired girl was very skilled with weapons, including swords. His Magic Spirit was already at level 15, at the top level, even though I was still at level 10. The difference between the visible distance between the earth and the sky seemed far.
Almost all of the Magus of the Andalus Kingdom are experts in using swords as magical weapons, which is different from other kingdoms, including magical technology.
"Selena Ainsley, she is Queen Catherine's daughter. The princess and the descendant who will succeed the throne of the Kingdom of Andalus."
What?
I'm very surprised. A royal princess and heir to the royal throne participated in 'The Magus Games'. How did the queen react?
"Isn't it very risky for a royal princess to take part in 'The Magus Games'?"
The same question I want to answer, but because I hate Calista, Andalus, and Queen Catherine. I don't want to know if it turns out that the princess of Andalus was forced to take part in a deadly game, and I don't want to know Queen Catherine's reaction.
"Horaces has no heir to the throne and doesn't want Team Spade to be involved in The Magus Games. A cunning trick. A year away from being held, The Magus Games are back with different changes. The Kingdom of Andalus is hosting for the first time, after fifty years Horaces was the host. Academic Magus Calista was forced to send their participants, especially the royal princess."
There is no meaning at all, in having to sympathize with the princess who fell into the enemy's trap.
"Morgan, is there something you want to ask?"
Head of Academics. No, I prefer to say his name directly. Klaus seemed to want to provoke my anger, knowing that I hated Calista.
"There isn't any."
The screen on the television displays data on Team Calista members along with their magic spirit power levels. Three members have a high level of magic spirit power apart from Selena, Ivory Ravinstill who I once faced, who was at level 14, and Lucius Oboro who was at level 15.
Wait a minute. Ivory Ravinstill? I'm not familiar with his last name. The name is the same as the name of the man who once had a feud at the Guest House. It turns out that I will face him again in the slaughter arena. What a fate, after the first feud, I finally challenged Ivory again.
The remaining five members of Team Calista, are at levels 13 and 12.
Only a few of the teams owned by Andalus have magic spirits at the top level, the rest are at a fairly standard level. Many Andalus residents hope that Team Calista will be the winner. They turned a blind eye to teams from other academics who only came from unexpected districts.
Horaces had the strongest team, even shifting the power from Andalus. Academics from Spade did not participate in the game. Of the six teams, two teams were the strongest and their magic spirit power was at the top level for a Magus.
"Horaces brought the two strongest teams. But, don't underestimate the other teams, Horaces' other teams are at an average level," said Professor Lupine warningly.
David boasted, crossing his legs. "How good are they? Horaces' people are just rubbish, how can they possibly match Andalus."
It would be better for the mayor's son not to underestimate his opponent. No matter the participants who came from Andalus or Horaces, all of them were enemies, including the team from Andalus. Professor Lupine just gave up, seeing David's arrogance. Klaus himself was the one who usually defended David and had the same thoughts as the arrogant boy, he didn't say much. Sheilla preferred to stare at her curly fingernails.
[North Dragon Team]
[Leader: Leon Ignis]
[Spirit Magic Level: 18]
[Primary Elemental: Fire]
[Elemental Attribute: None]
[Magical Weapon: Dagger]
[Wolf Feather Team]
[Leader: Madeline Fischer]
[Spirit Magic Level: 16]
[Primary Elemental: Lightning]
[Elemental Attribute: Snow Ice]
[Magical Weapon: Dagger]
Look, a proud boy can no longer boast. The two teams from Horaces were very strong, some of their magic spirit powers were even at level 18, almost close to level 20.
"North Dragon Team and Wolf Feather Team, they're the strongest teams Horaces has. Luckily, Academic Spade wasn't included in the game." Professor Lupine's face looked worried.
Two team leaders from Horaces. Leon Ignis and Madeline Fischer, are both team leaders with magic spirit powers at the top level, they even defeated Team Calista's glory.

The girl named Madeline was not so short and not so big, she had the grin of a wolf. Even the blonde-haired young man, Leon, looked like a giant with fangs, his two teeth deliberately carved to resemble dragon fangs.
"Professor, you said that there is the strongest other than the North Dragon Team and the Wolf Feather Team. Who?" I asked.
"Academic Magus Spade, the strongest of the other academics in Horaces. The strongest noble clan in Horaces. The noble clan that will fill Horace's throne. The Hydralerna noble clan."
The current ruler of the Horaces Kingdom is King Valadias, he comes from the Seger Noble Clan, just like Queen Catherine. Rumors circulated that King Horaces was unmarried and had no children, so the throne was empty, there was no heir from the Seger Noble Clan. There wasn't much information that came out freely, especially about the Kingdom of Horaces and King Valadias. Apart from not being married and having no children to inherit the throne.
"The Hydralerna Noble Clan is the strongest that Horaces has. The strength of the Hydralerna Noble Clan is equal to that of the Titanos Noble Clan and the Aether Noble Clan. Currently, the information I have, the Horaces Kingdom is supported by the Magus Priests. The biggest supporting pillar besides the Hydralerna Noble Clan, is the same as Andalus has a Master Magus who is the supporter of the kingdom's greatest pillar."
In the past, I didn't want to care about the Titanos Noble Clan, however, now I am very curious about the origins of the Titanos Noble Clan. Titanos, the most powerful noble clan in Andalus, along with the Silva Noble Clan, the Crimson Noble Clan, and the Aether Noble Clan.
Andalus is quite open, including histories of nobles, kings, and queens, historical records, and television broadcasts that always show the coronation of previous rulers.
"We can't get all the information, including our queen's personal information. Do you know the Great Hall of Priests?" said Professor Lupine.
"The Great Priestess Hall is where the Master Magus live and train magic spirit powers. They are trained directly under the auspices of the High Priestess Magus and they get their title after undergoing heavy training and participating in a deadly competition other than The Magus Games," Wendy explained.
It turns out that Wendy knows quite a lot, even though I don't know that much myself.
Master Magus? How strong are they?
"Lord Carlos and Lord Ezhel, they are also Master Magus. You met when they visited the Hill Valley district," said Professor Lupine.
So, Lord Carlos and Lord Ezhel are Master Magus? But I'm not sure, Lord Carlos was indeed strong when I challenged him. But really? He lost to me who was just a kid.
It's just momentary information, again the information we want. Professor Lupine has given us quite a bit of information about the team participants we will face later in the arena. While in the arena, what will we do? What should we not do? The advice that Professor Lupine gave me, I must remember it clearly. Because at the start of the game, there will be a battle or let's say a mass massacre.
Immediately move away from the battle and find water. Water is needed, when you are tired and running non-stop, besides that, it is the most effective advice. "You have to stay alive and you have to stay complete, as Team Hill Valley."
