Another World Mall-Chapter 614: A Challenge
"Do you know what I have done here?"
Clovis smiled wryly, looking at the frustrated Hana. Considering reputation and honesty were what a businessman needed, having her wreak havoc by playing around with those two had already damaged her ability.
If he asked her something like this a few more times, no one would ever have a business with her again.
"I know, I know." Clovis sighed. "Let’s talk about this once we’re back, okay?"
Hana’s lips were shaking, as though she wanted to say a few more words. However, she ended up dropping the matter. "All right. For the time being, I’m not sure whether it will be enough to eliminate them, so you have to be careful over there.
"Still, they will definitely bring back Gillian, so tell the lady over there to handle the rest of the matter before joining your group.
"I should be able to return in two weeks after ensuring the foundation of the business is firm in this country. Are you going to return straight away?"
"Not really." Clovis shook his head. "Our original intention to come here is indeed Aileen. But our second objection is to increase our tier. Experience exclusive tales on novelbuddy
"According to our calculation, Jay and Kanaria will be able to reach Tier 4 in a few weeks, so we’ll stay here to hunt until they reach Tier 4."
"Aren’t Luci, Melody, and Ragna about to reach Tier 5 as well?"
"Luci and Ragna, yes. Melody will still take a bit more time. I will probably take a few more weeks after Jay and Kanaria as well."
"That’s fine." Hana nodded. "Do you need anything else?"
"Not really." Clovis contemplated.
"Then I’m going to hang up. Let’s talk again after returning to Absalom."
When Clovis was about to nod his head, he suddenly heard Jay’s voice calling him.
"Clovis. Look at this. Do you have a feud with this guy called Tesron Khalika Melesviet?"
"Huh?" Clovis raised his eyebrows. He hurriedly turned to Hana, saying apologetically, "Sorry, let’s talk later. I’m going to hang—!"
"Wait. What the hell? You have a feud with this guy?"
"Who?"
She furrowed her eyebrows. It didn’t seem Clovis knew about this guy. There must be something going on.
"What happened, actually?" She asked.
"Ehm…" Clovis didn’t hang up. Instead, he brought the Skyphone to the room, where he saw Jay, Ragna, Kanaria, and Luci staring at the screen.
There was a headline stating, ’Tesron Khalika Melesviet is coming to Absalom, wanting to challenge the first academy?’
The article was definitely mentioning Clovis, considering he was currently one of the strongest people there. In addition, he was the biggest rising star that the academy had ever had, not including the new beast soul.

"Seriously?" Hana frowned.
"Do you know him?" Clovis asked.
Even the others glanced at her while Jay stated, "You’re the weird one for not knowing him, Clovis."
"Huh? Really? Clovis tilted his head in confusion. "You know him, Jay?"
"Tesron Khalika Melesviet." Jay nodded. "Consider him as Christina from a different family."
"!!!" Clovis raised his eyebrows. "Seriously? Why would he come all of a sudden?"
If he was similar to Christina, it meant this person had a unique ability. In addition, his family should be at the same level as Christina’s, which meant someone in his family was a Tier 9 human.
Hana crossed her arms for a moment before her expression turned grim, as though she realized something important. "Those bastards."
"Enough cursing or being mysterious. Just explain." Clovis sighed.
Hana raised two fingers. "The second academy. They must be planning with other academies to take down the first academy.
"That’s for one big reason. If the first academy continues to nurture you even in paper only, they will have all that reputation once you grow stronger, resulting in them being the first academy until its destruction. No other academies can challenge them.
"The competition between academies in Absalom is fierce. They’re searching for investors, giving more benefits to the students and teachers, and so on. That’s why all academies have the chance to rise to the top.
"However, they won’t have that chance anymore as long as you graduate properly from that academy.
"In order to stop you, they are trying to ruin the first academy’s reputation.
"I’m still unaware of the details, but it looks like they’re inviting this guy to wreak havoc in the first academy.
"You could say that he is coming to defeat you so hard that he will be your nightmare.
"The results they desire are you dropping you, the first academy’s reputation is ruined, and increasing the chance for other academies to devour you."
Clovis furrowed his eyebrows. "Still, this guy is from a Tier 9 family, right? Even if a lot of people in that family are foolish, there must be a few smart enough to understand that this guy is being taken advantage of."
Hana shook her head. "And that’s why they bring in this guy. He is a troublemaker. His reputation is much worse compared to Christina’s.
"The biggest problem will be whether he knows your true identity or not. Even if he doesn’t, there is still Christina.
"Because of what happened previously, her grandfather is still in retreat, right? If he runs rampant, it’s like saying that his family beats her.
"The same applies to your family. If he actually knows that you are Clovis Hacfield, it can be done as such. I know that the Hacfield family doesn’t really care about their reputation, considering the current state of your family.
"Still, just announcing your name out loud will create a problem, no? They might even bait your grandfather out."
Clovis frowned. He finally understood the severity of this matter. He never thought the academies were preparing for such an attack.
If he didn’t accept the challenge, he would be labeled as a coward.
If he accepted, there was no guarantee of victory.
Clovis frowned.
Christina suddenly stormed out of her room, saying in a rush, "Clovis. My grandfather somehow found the news. He said, ’If you can beat him, no need to hesitate. He will be there.’
"He asked me whether you’re going to beat him up or not."
