As soon as they returned back and stepped foot into the Terra Castle, Emery went straight to his room. He closed the door behind him and immediately sat down in the lotus position, before finally focusing his attention on his condition. Time passed unnoticed as Emery concentrated on his recovery. Much to his surprise, it took more than twenty four hours before he was finally able to perform any basic function without extreme pain stabbing his very being. While he had indeed suffered another episode of excruciating and agonizing torture, Emery also couldn't help but feel happy when he discovered his spirit force had increased tremendously from this incident. [Emery Ambrose] [Spirit force: 1818 (1840)] An increase of 22 points in just twenty-four hours was an unprecedented growth rate for the current Emery. Furthermore, only a portion of the devoured energy had been absorbed, a large portion of it was still stored within his spirit core. Looking at how things were, it would not be much longer before Emery reached the peak of the acolyte stage at 2000 spirit force. This meant what he needed the most right now was to return to the Khaos Space to meet Killgragah and demand the solution for his breakthrough into the magus realm. "One more day left…" Tomorrow should have been a much awaited moment for Emery, one that he couldn't wait to arrive, if it was not for the disappearance of his three close friends. Gazing out the window at the endless expanse, Emery had a dazed expression on his face as he muttered under his breath. "Klea… Thrax… Chumo… where are you all?" Moments later, Emery was awakened from his trance when he heard a knock on the door. He quickly stood up and went to the door, opening it to see it was Julian. The Roman was staring at him without expression while saying, "Senior Fuxi and the others are waiting for us in the hall." Emery nodded and the two of them walked together towards the hall. Not a single word was exchanged the entire way. There was a certain coldness radiating from his Roman friend, which Emery had felt upon their reunion after the battle. Realizing the reason for this, Emery said, "I'm sorry, Julian. I did what I had to do… and thank you for coming and saving us." The Roman stopped in his tracks when he heard that. Emery could hear a sigh from him before he then said, "I get it… I understand that you think what you did was right," Turning his head, Julian looked Emery in the eye, "But you should remember that this was not just your fight." "Let's not bring this up anymore." Turning his head away, he added, "Let's just agree that we both can have our own version of what is right." Julian then continued walking without waiting for an answer. As Emery watched his friend's back receding from his sight, he couldn't help but feel that their relationship had just taken a big blow. When they finally arrived at the Terra Castle's Hall of Champion, Emery could see Fuxi, together with the five wives of the late Lord Izta, had been waiting for them. Immediately after, Magus Rosia, the current master of the palace spoke. "A messenger from the academy came an hour ago. They have come to inform you that due to recent events, this year's graduation ceremony will not be held." This was certainly an understandable action on the part of the Magus Academy and the Magus Alliance. Nevertheless, this still only led everyone to believe that the current situation was even worse than they had assumed. It turned out most of the acolytes who had managed to survive were still afraid that the same incident would repeat itself. Furthermore, with most of them hailing from middle and high realm worlds, the graduation ceremony didn't really mean much in their eyes. After the Eastern Sage broke the news to the two, Magus Rosia then brought out two wooden boxes and nudged them towards the two while saying, "They also gave each of you this." Emery reached his hand over to pick up the one marked with his name. As soon as he touched it, a bright light appeared as the rune seals on the box lit up. [Identity confirmed. Privilege acolyte 83292008, Emery Ambrose] The notification swiftly disappeared and the box opened. Emery could see two objects lying on silk cloth. A metallic card and a silver parchment that was rolled and sealed with a golden thread. Looking at the two objects, Emery had a guess as to what the parchment might be. Wanting to confirm his guess, he quickly picked it up and the moment his hand touched it, an information came to his mind. [Scroll of Awakening] It was a scroll known to be given to all graduates of the Magus Academy. It was something that could increase the chances of a successful breakthrough to the magus realm. Unfortunately, considering his condition and what he heard so far, the scroll was of no use to him. Putting the scroll back, Emery turned to the other object. When he picked up the metallic card, another notification appeared in his mind as expected. It was filled with strings of information about himself. [Emery Ambrose] [Magus Academy's Graduate Year 25,053 BH] [Privilege class with Honors] [Overall rank - Rank 3] The card was some kind of graduation certificate, a testament to the achievements he had accomplished during his time at the Magus Academy. Inside, there were detailed records and grades of his time during the Magus Game, the Final Test and the Magus Tournament. After he finished reading through the information, more notification popped into his mind. [Thank you on for your participation in the Magus Academy tournament] [Congratulations, you placed – 2nd] [You received 2.000.000 contribution points] Emery was quite surprised to see his ranking turned out to be second and not third. This was most likely because the higher-ups of the academy had decided to remove Mahinder from the ranking for obvious reasons. This meant Emery received the rewards for the runner-up, which was double the amount received by the third place. Apparently there was still another notification coming [You ended the privilege class in top 5 ranking] [You are rewarded with one Divine Art technique - Rank A] After receiving instruction on how to claim the reward, Emery closed the wooden box with a very satisfied expression and he realized Julian was too. When they were done, Magus Rosia and the others' faces turned serious as she spoke, "Now for the most important matter." "They wanted to know your final decision… Will you stay or return to Earth?"
