Chapter 445 The Three Kings

...

Eastern Sea Region.

Magical Ace Academy.

"Hey, Look! It's them again!" said a bystander while pointing to a group of three young men.

The other young man beside that guy turned his head in the direction where he was pointing at and looked at the group of young men that he was talking about. But after a few more moments of staring at the three, this guy couldn't help but knitted his eyebrows as he couldn't recognize them.

So, he turned his head back at his friend and asked. "Who are they?"

Hearing his words, the other young man looked at him with a weird look at his face while saying. "You don't know those three? They are quite famous in school these days."

"Why? Are they strong?" asked by his friend.

At this point, the other young man couldn't help but look at him skeptically before saying. "Strong? They are not just strong; they are also talented individuals who are most likely going to take part in the promotional exams!"

Hearing that, the other guy suddenly remembered something and said. "Oh! Now, I remember! Are they one of the guys who ace the entrance exams? But aren't they just freshmen? What's so amazing with that?"

At this point, the other young couldn't hold himself any longer and hit his friend before saying. "Do you live in mountains or something? How come you haven't heard of their feats yet?"

"Those three can't be provoked now – even the seniors on the higher grades are afraid of them. It is because those three took down almost all of the well-known senior groups of the school. And because of that, they are most likely going to be given a special privilege to take the internal exams so that they can be admitted at the inner school sooner or later."

"And among all of the students who are going to be admitted at the inner school, those three will surely be ranked at the top."

Hearing all of that, the other guy kept on nodding his head as he finally understood why these three were attracting a lot of attention whenever they went just like now.

After a few moments of silence, he turned his head at his friend once again before asking with a curious tone. "Do you know their names? Maybe I can picture them for the next issue of the school gazette."

The other young man suddenly remembered something the moment he heard those words. "Oh! That is right! You told me that you are a new recruit of the 'Journalist Club'! But how come that you don't know about those three?"

Hearing that, the other guy couldn't help but feel a little ashamed before replying. "Actually, I am assigned to the 'Arts and Technology' department, so I don't know much about the new things about the 'Combat' department."

With that, the other young man finally came into a realization before saying. "Okay, let me tell you what I know about those three."

"From what I heard, those three all came from another continent; it is the Silver Wing Continent if I am not wrong."

He paused for a moment and pointed at one of the three while saying. "See that 2-meter guy with a muscular body? He is 'Simone Bartolomeo'. He has a very strong and tough body. In the entrance exams, he showed a superhuman strength that overwhelmed all of his opponents."

"Moreover, he also showcased his powerful defense during that time! He didn't budge an inch even after being bombarded by a lot of strong attacks from all sides!"

"If you look at the school portal, you are going to be shocked as his grades surpassed even the other seniors of the higher years. He got a 'SSS score' on both 'Physical Strength' and 'Body Toughness'; he is a real monster hiding in human flesh."

The other young man was jotting down everything that his friend was saying as fast as he could. And when he was done, he suddenly pointed at another guy before asking. "What about that guy?"

His friend turned his head at the thin guy that he was pointing at before clicking his tongue. "Tsk! 'Thomas Brooks', that guy is one hell of a dangerous person."

He paused for a moment before continuing with a deep tone. "Don't get fooled by his current appearance. Even though he looked so frail with his lean body, he is actually a very murderous guy. There are rumors that he is a member of an Assassin Family."

​ "During the exam, all of his opponents are hospitalized after getting a one-sided beating. No-… it is more like he almost killed each of them during the match. If not for the teachers stepping up in time, then his opponents are most likely going to get killed by him."

"If not for our school valuing such talents like him, then he is probably going to get disqualified during the entrance exam already."

The other young man kept on nodding his head repeatedly as he really found these guys interesting. "Looks like they are really a strong group."

After writing down everything heard about the second guy, he then looked at the final member of the trio who was walking in the front of the previous two. And from the looks of it, he seemed to be the leader of the group.

This guy had shoulder-length hair with a deep purple color. And judging from his fair and smooth skin, he was most probably a member of a very wealthy family.

On top of that, he also had a very handsome face which made the girls keep looking at him when he was passing by. And adding the cold demeanor that he had, it was not surprising for him to be a head-turner.

"Who is that guy at the forefront? He seemed to be very strong," said by the journalist guy.

His friend fell into deep thought for a moment before replying. "That is quite mysterious. But there is a single thing that is clear about him. And that is his strength."

"He is Jean Camus, and obviously the leader of that trio. He aces all of the tests during the entrance exam; both of the written and practical exams."

"He is a top-notch talent given the scores that he got from the entrance exam. But what really made him more famous was his battle capacities. The other students said that he defeated all of the leaders of the senior groups that he fought one-sidedly."

"Moreover, there is even a rumor saying that the teachers from the inner school are fighting over him – and that includes the vice principal and the principal himself. And if the things really go his way, then there is even a high possibility that he is going to be taken as a personal disciple of either of those two."

The journalist young man couldn't help but shake his head a little as he jotted down everything he heard. "These guys are really amazing."

"Aren't they? Actually, the other students have given their group a nickname and they are now being called 'Three Kings' of the East." said the other young man while nodding his head repeatedly.

Meanwhile, the journalist guy ignored his friend's last remark as he was currently thinking about something else. 'They remind me of those guys from Astral Middle School.'

After shaking off that thought, he suddenly turned his head back to his friend and asked. "You are quite knowledgeable. Do you want to join the Journalist Club? You really have the potential to be a good journalist."

...…

At the same time, the subject of their topic was walking quite arrogantly at the school plaza.

"Heh! Look at these weaklings? They are looking at us like some monkeys from the mountains," said Simone with an arrogant tone while walking.

Hearing that, Thomas suddenly started chuckling before commenting. "What 'us' are you talking about? Maybe, what you want to say is them looking at Jean."

He paused for a very brief moment to look at the young man walking in front of them before asking. "What do you think, Jean? This might be your chance – you don't have a chance to hit on girls when we are in the base since we are too focused on doing our tasks-..."

But he reached this point, he immediately swallowed back his words because Jean suddenly halted his steps and threw a fierce glare over his shoulder.

Seeing that look, Thomas couldn't help but break into a cold sweat as he raised his guard up.

"How many times do I have to tell you to mind your words? If someone hears you, they are most likely going to misunderstand us," said Jean while maintaining the fierce glare.

Thomas nodded his head repeatedly when he heard those words, acknowledging his mistake.

Meanwhile, Simone was currently shaking his head bitterly when he saw that. But his eyes suddenly turned sharp as his eyes caught a glimpse of someone.

He immediately raised his head and looked in the direction where he saw the figure that he saw to make sure that he was not mistaken. And after confirming that he was not mistaken, he immediately ditched the two and started walking in that direction.

Naturally, Thomas and Jean were able to notice his actions. So, they immediately stopped and simultaneously turned their heads in the direction where Simone was heading. And when they saw the person who caught Simone's interest, both of them suddenly formed a mysterious smile with their lips while saying at the same time.

"So, the people on the list are finally starting to show themselves, huh?"

"Looks like luck is finally on our side."
