Chapter 136: Consuming the Fruit of Magic Awakening(2)
Magic System in a Parallel World

After many moments of silence, a middle-aged man on approached the platform while shouting in an angry voice, "Why the fuck did you do that?! Why did you eat it?!"

Leo calmly turned to look at the person who just spoke.

'That's Derek Argent… the vice principal of the academy and the second most powerful individual, being only below Headmistress Eve…' He quickly recognized this middle-aged man who had an enraged face.

"What's wrong? It's my treasure that I'd acquired after risking my life. Why can't I eat it?" Leo pretended to be ignorant about the situation.

"YOU FUCKING IDIOT!" Derek roared, his face bulging with veins.

"That was the Fruit of Magic Awakening! It is a legendary treasure that nobody has been able to acquire! It should've been examined by experts and be protected! That could've been the last one in this world! Yet you consumed it without any hesitation or consideration! I should fucking kill you for your audacious actions!" Derek was shouting so loud that his saliva sprayed all over the place.

Indeed, the reason why so many people there tried to stop Leo from consuming the Fruit of Magic Awakening was because of the treasure's rarity, not because they wanted it for themselves. Of course, they definitely coveted that inwardly, but none of them would dare to actually consume the Fruit of Magic Awakening if it was in their hands.

Most unknown treasures and artifacts are usually examined by experts to further understand them. Furthermore, they might have been able to reproduce the Fruit of Magic Awakening's effects, which would have changed the entire world drastically, as it would allow more people to use magic and fight back against the threats roaming the Wilderness and the vampires.

Unfortunately, that chance is now gone until they find another Fruit of Magic Awakening, all because of a student who was too hasty to consume it. Once news of this event spread, Leo would, without doubt, become the most hated person in the world.

"Settle down, Vice Principal." Headmistress Eve suddenly stepped in between them.

"You want me to calm down after what he just did?! Why aren't you shocked?! Why aren't you angry?! He just screwed humanity over with his reckless actions!"

"First of all, we don't even know if that Fruit of Magic Awakening was real or fake. Countless people have searched for it for hundreds of years but to no avail. And even if it was real, there is nothing we can do about it since he's already consumed it." Eve shook her head.

"Somebody bring me a magic affinity tester!" She demanded in a loud voice.

"I have one with me." Camille suddenly appeared on the platform with the device and handed it over to her.

"If that Fruit of Magic Awakening was real, you should have a magic affinity now." Eve said to Leo as she approached him with the device.

Leo placed his hands on the crystal ball.

Everybody in the auditorium watched with their breaths held and their eyes as wide as saucers.

And before the thousands of witnesses in the auditorium, the crystal ball emanated a crimson light before flames appeared inside the crystal ball and danced wildly.

"I-Impossible…" Many people there mumbled when they saw the results.

"A-Rank fire magic affinity…"

"Leo, who was born without any magic affinity, now has a fire magic affinity! That Fruit of Magic Awakening was real!"

"LEEEEEOOOO!" The Vice Principal roared, causing the entire building to shake.

"PUKE IT OUT! PUKE OUT THE FRUIT OF MAGIC AWAKENING RIGHT NOW!"

In his mind, even if the Fruit of Magic Awakening has been consumed by Leo, it hasn't been that long since he consumed it, so they should still be able to salvage some of it.

"I will open a hole in your stomach and retrieve the treasure myself if I have to!" The Vice Principal began approaching Leo.

However, a ring of fire suddenly appeared around him, halting his steps.

ραꪒⅆα ꪒꪫꪥꫀ​ꪶ​ "He-Headmistress?! What is the meaning of this?! Why are you still protecting him?! The Fruit of Magic Awakening is real! We need to retrieve it before it's too late!"

"Your behavior is unbefitting of your status, Vice Principal Derek. I understand your feelings, but even if the Fruit of Magic Awakening is real, it belongs to Leo, and he has every right to decide what to do with it. If you keep making a commotion, I will have to remove you from the scene."

Vice Principal Derek swallowed nervously when he saw Eve's cold gaze.

"Hmph!" He turned to look at Leo and said in a cold voice, "You're going to regret your actions today very soon! Once news spreads, you will become the most hated person in the world! I would keep a close eye on my back if I were you!"

Eve smiled and said in a loud and clear voice, almost as if she wanted everyone to hear it, "Starting today, Leo is under my protection! Whoever dares to hurt him will face my wrathful flames! And since he now has a fire magic affinity, I am going to train him!"

"What?!" Everyone there exclaimed.

"Are you willing to become my student, Leo? It won't be easy, but I will make you the strongest fire mage in this academy!"

"I am willing!" Leo immediately said.

"Good! I now end the gathering here! All of you are dismissed!" Eve then said.

She turned to look at Camille and said, "Bring Leo to my office and wait for me there."

Camille nodded, "Let's go, Leo."

"Okay." Leo quickly rushed to stand beside Camille, as he felt the safest when around her.

Camille led Leo out of the auditorium shortly after while the rest of the people there were still trying to comprehend what had just occurred.

"Leo can use magic now…?" Valery and her team were speechless.

If Leo is already this powerful with just the sword, how much more powerful will he become when he fully adapts to his new powers? Nobody there could imagine.

    If he really wanted to go down this path, he should have chose the accident path saying "they traveled down a secret path and there was a tree down the path guarded by powerful monsters. After killing all the monsters and reaching the tree there was a singular fruit on the tree. So we decided to pick and eat the fruit and then the next moments i could feel a rise of power inside of me but didnt know what it was. After the fruit was picked, the tree suddenly rotted like it fulfilled its purpose and disappeared. It wasnt until i returned to the campus that i learned that the fruit was most likely the fruit of the awakening since i now have an affinity towards fire magic" Something like that could lessen the backlash, because he could still tell them where to go so people could investigate

      he'd still get a similar response. to consume the fruit is to become the enemy of the world. at the very least he'd still be enemies of those with strength to actually do something about it. and he wouldn't have the principle's complete backing. she'd be suspicious of him as well. at least this way she's in on it and he has her full support.

    lol the trouble not worth the benefit, it's not like you can't use magic, there still disguise or use it hiddenly. By announcing in the world like this, MC offended many people and his life won't be that peaceful anymore. idiotic move i say. He decent with the sword after all, now he have that magic sword and staff normal A-monster not his opponent anymore.

      Yeah, I dont really get it. He has already done it, the better solution which is to make a new identity just like he did when he went to practice his dark magic and also when he became an adventurer. I also like if he has multiple identities to restrict which powers he can use when being in a certain character. Leo = swordsman. The adventurer guy = magician. He's too OP that I felt like this is a way to make him struggle. Right now, there's no students that can threaten him.

        He has The headmistress protecting him and camille. In my opinion I'd say it was half good and half bad. But if he has two identities he both of them can't appear at the same time.

        There's a risk in everything.

        But with him eating the only legendary treasure in the entire world he will be hunted. It's good there's the academy protecting him but if not he wouldn't eat it.

        another good thing is that he can use magic in front of the 0eople. Which means in tournaments where there is rewards he can use magic freely which would help him win and in turn he would grow faster.

    Most logical thing would have been to live in obscurity when the MC is an otherworlder that people fear... hmm. Well, I suppose getting trained by the headmaster isn't a bad deal either.. whoknows

      That is probably impossible but there's a first time for everything, so yes, it would've been better.

      I don't think you can really awaken a magic Affinity during a "dangerous situation".
      I think it would be like if someone who was blind since birth suddenly appeared out of nowhere with perfect eye sight, and they said that they got their eye sight from a "dangerous situation".
