Tang Tang Tang—
The distinctive sound of bells resounded in his ear and Emery's body started to tremble as he finally recalled the memory of what happened after the prison break. He spoke with anxiety clear in his voice, unable to hold back his feelings.
"It's not just the prison… the elves are attacking! Elder, we don't have time! The academy is in danger!"
Those words that seemingly came out of nowhere evidently grew the tense atmosphere in the air significantly. However, while his friends became worried since they believed Emery wouldn't speak such things without reason, Magister Griffith on the other hand became even more skeptical. In his eyes, Emery's words were merely spouts of nonsense.
"What now!? The elves attacking!? How exactly? There is no way for them to enter the academy without going past multiple outposts and the ten institutes! No matter how I see it, your words just don't add up!"
Emery didn't offer a response to the magister's rebuke. All the questions and memories swirling inside his mind at the moment put an indescribable burden on him. What's more, Emery honestly didn't know where to start. The only thing he was certain of was that they didn't have much time left.
Seeing the situation, Grand Magus Aurora stepped in and put her index finger on Emery's forehead. A brilliant light appeared a second later and Emery suddenly found his mind clear of confusion. He gradually calmed down and began assessing the situation.
The first in his mind was time. He needed to know exactly how much time they had before the disaster struck.
He swiftly recalled the details of the memories and compared it with the present where Headmaster Delbrand had already gone to the prison. Calculating the time difference and making sure nothing was inaccurate, he was sure the prison break would occur approximately 35 minutes from now.
Then, there should be 25 minutes of gap between the grand magus battle that took place within the prison and the ringing of Golden City's emergency bell which signaled an attack on the Magus Alliance headquarters.
Comparing all this information with the closing ceremony of the Magus Tournament, which was supposed to start in an hour, it was safe to assume the elves would commence the attack right before or at the start of the ceremony.
From what he had seen on the screen in the tavern, it was apparent that even the dozen grand magus head instructors and guests, counting more than a few hundred magus attending the ceremony, were not enough for what was to come.
On top of that, there was still the Elven Armada, warships that would enter the sector.
Hence, Emery quickly tried to think of the best way to utilize the limited time he had.
Seeing the changes happening in Emery's face, Grand Magus Aurora said, "You know what to do now?"
He turned to the beautiful grand magus, "We have less than one hour. We need to inform the Supreme Commander about the impending arrival of Elf armada and to stop the attack on the academy"
Magister Griffith frowned deeply at those words. "You wish to call in the Supreme Commander because of your, what, dream?!"
Emery once again tried to convince the magister despite receiving such a dismissive attitude from the other party. Seeing he was supported by Grand Magus Aurora, the man changes his tone..
He heaved a sigh before saying, "We already put all of our men in determined places to prepare for any threats. So unless you know the specific details of your so-called invasion, about how they will infiltrate the academy defense, I can't really help."
After saying those words, Magister Griffith excused himself from the group as he needed to finalize the security arrangement for the upcoming closing ceremony.
Looking at the disappearing back of the magister, Emery turned towards Grand Magus Aurora for help. He understood he needed help in this matter since his standing was merely that of an acolyte.
A thoughtful look appeared on the grand magus' face before she said, "I think you should go to Zodiac City and convince the Supreme Commander yourself."

"Elder, What about you?" Emery asked, clearly wanting her to come along. If he brought along and had the backing of a renowned oracle from the Magus Alliance, he believed it would be much easier to convince anyone about the impending disaster.
She could of course see through his intentions. Unfortunately, there was something else she needed to do.
"If you say that we only have less than an hour, then I must return to the Light Institute. After all, the academy and all 10 institutes will be protected from any outer space attack as long as the God crystal is protected."
Emery heaves a sigh, wanting to convince the grand magus once again. However every second he spent on further discussion meant the less time he had to deal with this problem.
Casting his gaze at Magus Shena, he spoke in a solemn tone. "Senior, I have to trouble you with one request. Could you please go to Golden City and convey this information to King Alduin? Please, you must convince him about the Magus Academy attack."
Even though she herself was still slightly doubtful, Grand Magus Aurora's reaction showed there was credibility in Emery's words, hence she nodded her head. Since the Karat residence where King Alduin was supposed to be was several hundred miles away from Golden City, she immediately set off to make it there in time
Emery turned towards Klea and the others, "I need someone to catch up with the headmaster and warn him."
"This is my unfinished job. I will do it," Chumo said with conviction.
Emery actually wanted to go to the headmaster himself, but he knew he had other priorities to take care of.
He believed Chumo would be able to reach the headmaster, but just letting him go would be unwise. Hence, he took the time to quickly brief him of things that would happen and, as expected, Chumo's face couldn't help but turn pale hearing the battle of multiple grand magus.
Emery looked towards the Eastern Sage asking for him to accompany Chumo and the latter nodded his head in agreement. Their objective was not only to warn and help the headmaster, but also to alert the Magus Alliance headquarters about the impending attack.
With the Eastern sage accompanying him, Chumo appeared to be more confident, "I understand. I will try my best to convince as many enforcers as I can."
Suddenly, another voice sounded from the back.
"I will accompany him, me Gerri" The eccentric figure of the elite class step forward "I can definitely help you guys, I have a very good relationship with Golden City's enforcers!"
Recalling the other party's brash characteristics, everyone couldn't help but doubt his mentioned relationship was a good one. Still, Emery welcomed the man as Chumo could certainly use all the help available.
Thrax wanted to tag along, but Emery stopped him from doing so. "No, Thrax. I have another task for you. I need you to go back to Terra palace and inform Lord Izta about the situation. You have to convince him that this is real."
The reason Emery sent Thrax was because he didn't want to waste time convincing the combat magus through the unreliable telecommunication device. Moreover, news like this was better conveyed in person.
Emery then glanced at Julian, intending to ask the Roman to accompany Thrax. But unexpectedly, he refused. Seeing the surprised look, Julian quickly said, "I will bring this news to the Nephilim and ask for their help."
Knowing the Nephilim had a warship in the vicinity, if they were willing to help, it could definitely make a difference.
This left Klea as the last one and she seemed surprisingly a bit too excited by the situation.
"What about me? What can I do?"
