He had already been in a terrible mood thanks to Fane. Those negative comments seemed to light up a fuse in him.
He suddenly stood up on his mat as he shouted at all the alchemists around him, "All of you, shut your mouths! The results have not been sent over, and you're already saying such depressing things. Even if the results are good, they have been swallowed up by your depressing words! I trust Nash's skills. Even if he doesn't get a black treasure, he would have only missed by just a little!"
Everyone shut up after hearing that. No one dared to provoke him. They knew that Rudeus was in an incredibly bad mood at that moment. Mitchell frowned unhappily as he looked at how crazy Rudeus was acting.
No matter what Rudeus said before, Mitchell had more or less tolerated it, but he never expected that Rudeus would end up being so out of control, biting at everyone like a mad dog.
There was nothing too wrong with what everyone was talking about. All of it was the truth. Even he was not that optimistic about this round's results. After all, there are a lot of talented alchemists from the two other worlds.
It was not easy to place in the top three among so
many geniuses. He had participated in one of the rounds, and naturally knew how hard it was.
Mitchell took a deep breath, saying unhappily," Rudeus, I know you're in a bad mood, but there's nothing wrong with what everyone is saying. No one wants to be pessimistic. If there really is reason to be confident, I trust that everyone would have gladly said so..."
Rudeus frowned as he looked at Mitchell darkly. His lips twitched as he snorted, "Stop trying to be so snide about everything. This time, Phoenix Valley has their representative in it too. Aren't you worried? Wouldn't you be angry with them when you hear such negative evaluations?"
Mitchell coldly answered, "Of course I want my fellow students to get good results, but the truth is clear for all to see. If I say that he'll definitely be able to get a treasure, I'd just be bragging..."
Mitchell and Rudeus were arguing nonstop on one end, while Rudy and Aaron sat in their corner, starting to discuss things.
Rudy's face was full of worry. He trusted Fane's skills, but they were against two incredibly strong worlds. He did not know if Fane would be able to get good results.
Possibly because of the worried look on Rudy, but Aaron could tell right away.
He said curiously, "I feel like Fane should be able to get a good standing, I just don't know how well he'll do. I heard from the other alchemists that only the top three results would be announced, while everything else would be ignored.
Saying that Aaron was worried as well. If Fane did not get in the top three, then his results would not be shown. It would be useless even if Fane had been in fourth place.
After Rudy heard Aaron's words, he turned and said seriously, "Fane will definitely get a treasure!"
Rudy sounded incredibly confident, leaving no room for doubt. Aaron's lips twitched helplessly, not knowing what to say. He wanted to ask Rudy how he was so confident that Fane would definitely get a treasure.
