Chapter 68 Rejection?
Mr. Wallace raised his eyebrows, he knew his students won't let him away without answering their questions. He saw the expectant gazes of everyone including the Top Rank Mages, he twitched.
Then again seeing the rude behavior of Frank, his face turned ugly. But still he decided to tell them whatever he knows. Even himself not sure whether the news is approved by the HeadMaster Collins or not.
"Ahem, I can understand. All of you want to go for another Monster Hunting Trip. But it will take a while, probably two months." Mr. Wallace uttered without much of an expression on his face. But his words pour cold water on everyone's face.
Then without waiting for anyone to rudely interrupt him, Mr. Wallace further added, "And coming back to the topic of whether other A Rank Classes have opportunity to go for Monster Hunting Trip or not. The matter is on the table, it's yet to be decided."
Seeing that Mr. Wallace confirmed the rumors to be true. The Mage students couldn't help but feel disappointed. It's just an act of wasting resources mediocre Mages.
Frank, who is listening to his peers, feels injustice happened to their Class. Looking at Mr. Wallace he again raised another question, "Class Teacher, If the Head Master approves their proposal, then it would be disadvantageous to us. With such resources spend on us, our strength will increase by leaps and bounds."
His tone drastically changed, Frank addressed him as a Class Teacher rather than Mr. Wallace.
Frank's righteous filled voice echoed throughout the ClassRoom. As expected, not only Frank, everyone feels the same way. One by one started to raise the same question to Mr. Wallace. Everyone's worry was resources being wasted on other Classes who have mediocre talents.
Mr. Wallace touched his forehead in frustration. He hadn't expected that the first day of today's class would turn out like this.
While everyone is murmuring, Frank smiled by receiving the expected response from his classmates.
Liam was stupefied by watching this entire situation. He is Class Leader, this would be his script. But seeing Frank's face again he feels even more uneasy. "There is a huge gap between Rank 4 and Rank 10, I can't compete with him." Shaking his head, He said to himself.
Victoria's expression becomes frosty as 1000 year old ice. She was hoping for some opportunity, but looking at things before her eyes. It's uncertain that it will happen. Suddenly, She stood from her seat.
Seeing such an abrupt behavior from Victoria Shields, everyone is stunned and next moment they get excited. They want to see what they have to see. If Top Rank Mages raise their demand as one voice. Then they will get one more Monster Hunting Trip.
Mr. Wallace once again changes drastically, He doesn't want to see worst case scenario. But unfortunately it's happening right now. The Top Rank Magea of his Class had already admitted into some respectable factions. So, their voice had certain strength. Even the HeadMaster has to weigh in on some options after listening to them.
So seeing Victoria, he is ready to listen to her questions.
Even Danny Quinn was surprised to see her behavior.
As everyone gazed at her, Victoria turned towards Mr. Wallace and said, "Class Teacher, If this proposal is real, then we can talk to the HeadMaster to change his opinion." After saying that she stopped for a second then added, "Each Monster Hunting Trip is more valuable to us than other Classes. I hope you will raise this issue to him"
She sat back on her seat after saying her opinion.
The whole Class cheered up hearing her opinion. As they expected Top Rankers are coming together, then everyone is looking forward to their Class Teacher answers. Will he raise this issue to the Headmaster or not? Everyone wants to know.
Seeing that even Ms. Victoria has a strong opinion against this Monster Hunting Trip, Mr. Wallace decided to talk to HeadMaster Collins at break.
Looking at his students he answered, "Well, Since you guys want me to have a talk with the Headmaster about this. Then I will definitely ask about this. But I'm not sure about the outcome of the discussion."
Then he added, "It will only make other A rank Classes hate us."
Hearing that Frank sneered, "Class Teacher, What can they do? It's rare for our school to accept them with their mediocre talents. If they are ungrateful, then we always welcome them to fight against us." He said with a smile.
"Ha...Ha...Ha..." The whole class erupted with laughter. They were pretty sure no one would fight against them. Even Bottom Mages of their class can easily win against Top Rankers of other classes.
Mr. Wallace shook his head in disappointment. Then he proceeds to begin the class.
Time progresses,
During break, Mr. Wallace heads towards the Head Master's Cabin. "I don't know what's going to happen?" He mumbled under his breath. He quickened his pace and reached his Cabin in a few minutes.
"Creak" the door slid open.
The HeadMaster Collins is sitting behind his desk. Upon noticing Mr. Wallace straightened up his back and gestured to him to take a seat.
Mr. Wallace sighed in relief seeing his bright mood. After taking the seat, he asked, "Ahem, Headmaster. I would like to discuss something with you."
Hearing that, Head Master Collins nodded and asked, "is there any issue?" He feels there might be another scuffle between the students.
"Cough" "Head Master, it's about a Monster Hunting Trip. The students in my Class were unsettled about the trip. Especially the Top Rankers. " He said with little hesitation, he doesn't know what is on his mind.
Head Master Collins frowns, the Monster Hunting Trip is something proposed by A Rank Division Class Teacher except Wallace.
But he hasn't thought about this, yet the news is spread to everyone. He is angered.
Looking at Wallace, he asked, "What does it have to do with your Class? The trip is planned for their students."
Mr. Wallace knows he is annoyed and he wants to end this conversation as soon as possible. "My students feel that their trip is going to end in vain. If they were students they could drastically improve their strength."
The Headmaster realized something, the issue is not the trip but the resources spent on them. Obviously you need to spend money to get necessary permission for the trip.
That's why he is a bit hesitant to decide whether to allow them or not. But right now people from Class A1 are raising red flags against this trip.
Obviously he will side with Class A1, So he answered, "I'm rejecting their proposal. As we are short on money, we can't spend on this unnecessary trip" He sounded very upright. But who knows whether his claim is true or not.
Hearing that Mr. Wallace sighed in relief. "As expected it's a false alarm, He knew the person in front of him was very stingy. It would be miracle of he actually allows them to go." Mr. Wallace laughed in his heart.
Since the matter is settled Mr. Wallace decided to leave. "Okay, Head Master then I'm leaving " After saying that he stood up from his seat.
"Sit!" The HeadMaster Collins said.
Hearing that Mr. Wallace bewildered but chooses to sit down.
"I read the report from the security guard. '' The HeadMaster raised the question.
Mr. Wallace nodded but he waited for the HeadMaster to call him. So he didn't see him in person that day.
"Ahem, Head Master, It's just a small scuffle between students. I had already solved it. Even Ms. Rivers didn't raise any objection."
After saying that he suddenly thought of something and added, "And Headmaster, I feel Vincent should transfer to our class. He is just wasting his potential at Class A2"
Thank Goodness he almost forgot about it, Fortunately the Head Master asked about the scuffle, otherwise he needed to make another separate trip for it.
Hearing his request, The HeadMaster Collins didn't answer him straight away. Right now he contemplates, he had already arranged for Vincent's death. So Vincent will be dead soon, but he doesn't know when the Poison Dagger will act on it.
Coming back to whether to put him in Class A1, he didn't consider it. He feels since he is going to be dead anyway. So why waste time on this matter. He neglected his request by saying, "Class A1 is full right now, We will see in a few months."
After saying that he gestures to him to leave. Earlier he wanted to scold him for not meeting up with him sooner regarding Liam's scuffle. But he since he brought up the matter of Vincent on table, which left him in displeasure.
Seeing the disappearing back of Mr. Wallace, Mr.Collins pondered. Am I wrong? Should I try to talk to Vincent about Dark League? But then he shook his head in denial. Nope, If the people from Yellow River Academy caught him, then he would end up miserable.
