Chapter 218: Judge Ranchi’s Death Sentence This Time
The central hall of the Sage Academy’s Guta Library was usually a quiet, solemn space, but today it was glowing with a bustle that was very different from usual.

A number of scholars stood on the delicate and intricate colored floor tiles and carpets, and they were interacting with Kalyan in droves, busily confirming and inquiring about every detail they cared about, occasionally turning back to discuss it with a friend or colleague next to them, and a tense yet excited atmosphere filled the air.

Even though [Primordial Slate – Wind] had already been researched, a pink sacred magic card that was improved based on the [Primordial Slate – Wind] Boundary Spell still possessed a very high academic value!
At this moment, the Foundation Floor was no longer a quiet temple of knowledge, but had become the scene of a vibrant academic conference.

Even Ranchi’s return didn’t attract much attention for a moment.

Only Loren, who had retrieved the [Primordial Slate – Wind], was the first to pay attention to Ranchi.

“……”

He was about to say something, but stopped his words when he saw the magic card Ranchi was holding.

“Ranchi-san has returned as well.”

Due to the dissipation of the Void Gate, this magical change quickly caused the crowd to start turning back.

However.

They either showed a brief look of surprise or once again returned their attention back to Kalyan once more, and there were some who were very puzzled.

People saw in Ranch’s hand, a miserable white card.

It seemed that even the rank was extremely low, and it was difficult to feel the fluctuation of magic power on it.

“Please wait for me for a moment first.”

After seeing Ranchi, Kalyan apologized to the other scholars at the first opportunity and trotted to Ranchi’s side.

“Ranchi-san, it seems like you didn’t play too well this time, I heard Dean Loren’s compliments to you, and I thought that you were able to make at least a fourth-rank purple magic deck.”

Kalyan said as she raised her head and gazed at Ranchi’s face.

She was probably convinced of Ranchi’s level.

It was a rookie pretty much.

Even kind of resisted the urge to laugh at him.

Just this? A genius card maker from the Sage Academy? She thought it was so impressive.

But any blue quality magic deck that Ranch made a bit higher in rank was fine, a low rank white normal magic deck that even a freshman card maker from the Magic Works Academy could make was usually a tool card or a prop with a weak magical effect.

The nearby scholars were not good at talking.

In fact, they could see that it was obvious that it wasn’t a matter of play.

Bad play was either blowing up the card or making a defective product that caused the quality to drop a notch, and Kalyan was just saying that Ranch was a vegetable, but didn’t say it as bluntly as she should have.

“It’s not so much about playing well as it is about what my strength is supposed to be.”

Ranchi said calmly.

“……”

Hearing that Ranchi wasn’t going to make excuses, Kalyan’s lips parted slightly in surprise.

She had thought that Ranchi would still be frustrated, after all, being held in such high regard.

“Ranchi-san, don’t be discouraged, after all you’re only a first year, there are times when card making does depend on luck, and it’s not like I haven’t made a white normal before, but at least you’re being honest, if I had made a white normal magic card deck, I probably would have hidden it.”

Kallen continued to smile innocently, cheering Ranch on.

The strong just had the capital to ruthlessly humiliate the weak.

The thought of Ranchi making such a shabby card made her a little hard to strain.

This time anyone could hear that Carine was giving Ranchi a hard time.

It seemed like things hadn’t been going too well between the two of them until after Caryn’s big smoothie, when she simply stopped pretending.

“Then I’ll see you again, Ranchi-san, I hope I’ll see you at the Platinum Level Card Maker Exam in the future, so I can see the level of the super-awesome card maker that Dean Loren is talking about.”

Kalyan waved her hand with a sideways glance and walked towards the scholars and reporters like she didn’t have time to set her eyes on Ranchi anymore.

“I’ll fight for it.”

Ranch replied as he politely watched Kalyan leave.

“……?”

Loren, who had watched from the sidelines as Kalyan plastered her face in mockery of Ranch, wondered if Kalyan had misunderstood something.

There is indeed a possibility that you will meet at the Platinum Level Card Maker Exam. Loren also didn’t realize that it turned out that Kalyan hated Ranch so much, and at first thought that the two of them were getting along well!

Wait a minute.

“!”

Loren frowned tightly.

It was only now that he realized a serious problem-

Good lord, so Carline was really treating Ranch as a rookie and started abusing him, right?

Although the matter of Ranchi being a quasi-platinum level card maker was not publicized for the time being, Loren didn’t expect Calian to misjudge Ranchi’s strength to such an extent!

“It’s over ah ……”

After being stunned for a moment, Loren covered his forehead, recalling the words that Kalian had just uttered to Ranchi …… he only felt that all was lost.

He didn’t dare to imagine the scene in case Kalian met Ranqi as an examiner on the platinum level card maker exam in the future …… afraid that his mind wouldn’t directly explode.

“Dean Loren, what’s wrong with you?”

Ranchi asked with concern.

“……”

Loren lowered his hand and looked at Rancic with a lump in his throat.

Rancic did keep in mind his instructions that Kallen would be healthy, safe and happy to return to the Kingdom of Arrowland as per her itinerary, unlike those other three that were to remain in the Kingdom of Houghton.

But this time, Kalyan, was socially dead.

“Forget it …… the kid had it coming ……”

Loren whispered powerlessly.

Sure enough as long as the students of the Yaloran King’s Academy, and Ranch came into contact with nothing good, now look, hospitalization are excellent treatment!
Loren stood on the carpet, thought about it, but now a little concerned about Ranchi’s mood, after all, for all intents and purposes, the card he made after this observation is indeed quite strange.

“Didn’t play well?”

Loren asked to Rancic.

He was a little curious as to what kind of card Rancic had made out of it.

At least he was a quasi-platinum level card maker, his lower limit wasn’t so low as to seriously make a white card out of it.

Loren had never seen Migaiya make a white normal magic card deck.

“……”

Ranch lowered his eyes to gaze at the card in his hand, he was smiling, not caring at all about the outcome of this card making.

Originally, he also planned to find Loren to ask for a token, so that he wouldn’t be too deep into the drama as a bandit when he went to the North Continent next, and he wouldn’t be able to prove his identity to the police at the critical moment.

But now it seems that there is no need for this.

“Playing quite well, actually.”

Ranch chuckled softly, only turning his fingertips so that Loren could see this magic deck in his hand.

[Fake Slate – Wind]

[Category: Equipment Card]

[Grade: White Common]

[Class: 1]

[Passive Effect: This card can be regarded as the Original Slate-Wind, but does not have a bonus effect. Observing this card may lead to a weak comprehension of wind-attribute magic engineering]]

[Remarks: All things in this world will eventually be reborn, and the wind will forever blow across this land.]]

After simply raising his hand in farewell, he walked past Loren.

Only Loren, who stood staring straight ahead with his eyes open, was left standing in the same spot.

Later this year, he would carry this [Fake Slate – Wind] to the North Continent to star directly as Loren, and Ranch would use the artistic image of the Great Divine Magistrate to try to create a positive role model, blossoming in both the North and South Continent, and to promote the culture of Ichorite.
