Anzi the Inhuman was considered the strongest acolyte in the Magus Academy in a contest of physical strength. At least before he eventually suffered defeat at the hands of Zach the dragon half-blood. Now, seeing Anzi blinded by rage as he charged fiercely towards Silva, everyone could only hope that the Inhuman would not hurt his opponent too badly.
However, to everyone's complete surprise, the white-haired girl was unscathed.
She perfectly dodged the Inhuman's crazed attack using her [Slithering Steps], moving so nimbly that her shadow couldn't be seen. No matter what the latter tried to do, she continued to maneuver around his attacks, dodging them with ease.
Silva's battle art was by no means extraordinary. Rather, it was the fact that she had performed it so masterfully that made the others impressed by her actions.
Emery, however, thought differently than the others.
He had fought a life-and-death battle against Anzi to know the true extent of the Inhuman's power and skills. On the other hand, he had also seen and even fought together with Silva many times. For that reason, he could confidently say that he understood the limitations of her skill.
Thus he knew that there was definitely something amiss with her skill.
His suspicion was quickly answered when Silva was forced to use her bloodline transformation by Anzi's relentless assault.
To Emery's surprise , instead of the usual glistening white scales, there were certain black scales lining up on her neck, forehead, and limbs instead. The appearance of those contrasting scales was accompanied by an extraordinary power exploding from within her body.
[Kemoyin Nightmare Serpent]
Even at a glance, Emery was certain that the power Silva was emitting right now was that of a Mythical bloodline comparable to his own. This revelation quickly became known to everyone watching the fight, and quickly raised questions.
""Since when was there another Mythical bloodline among the half-blood acolytes?""
While others were confused by the unexpected revelation, the battle between the two became even more heated after Silva's transformation.
With her transformation, while Silva was still not able to stand on par with Anzi in the strength department, the enhancement the transformation bestowed gave her superior advantage over speed. Coupled that with her exceptional foundation in battle arts, the white-haired girl proved her worth, showing that she was more than capable to stand amongst the top acolytes of Magus Academy.
However, it didn't look like Silva was planning to settle for a mediocre result in this fight.
Dodging Anzi's fist, Silva blew out a plume of dark smoke towards him. She continued to do it each time she dodged his attack, and everyone could see that Anzi's movement slowly but surely started to become stiff.
After evading the Inhuman's attack for the umpteenth time, Silva retreated into the distance and with a smile on her face said, "I heard that you cannot be killed, but it looks like that poison is still working on you."
"Arrghhh!!!"
A poison that could affect Anzi's unique ability was certainly not a simple one at all.
Anzi had been very annoyed by the fact that she had only been toyed with by the female half-blood so far, and her mocking words only served to light the fuse. Enraged, this time when he took action, he deliberately stomped the floor so hard that the ship itself shook, sending a powerful force that knocked Silva off balance.

Seeing the opportunity, Anzi shot forth and was ready to smash her body. However, just as his punch was about to connect, Silva's figure disappeared from before him. Emery had taken action when he saw the situation, saving her by taking her along using [Blink].
Silva however was annoyed, "Huh! I didn't ask for your help."
Emery just smiled as he was used to her harsh remarks. He then turned to the others especially Anzi and said, "That's enough demonstration already, I think she has proven her strength."
Seeing that no one seemed to mind, Emery nodded and ended the matter. He then asked Silva to give Anzi the antidote for her poison, but the Inhuman refused to accept it knowing that the living organisms in his body would be able to neutralize it over time.
"Of course, he won't need it." Silva said, "It's just a sedative poison, after all."
Because he himself said there was no problem and Silva had told him the type of poison, The matter seems to be resolved. It was at this time that Eeshoo approached him.
"What about the monk?" He asked. "Do you agree with his inclusion in the team, Emery?"
A thoughtful look appeared on Emery's face, before he said, "I trust in the headmaster's decision. But yes, I also hope that he will explain more about this."
Saying those words, Emery couldn't help but glance at Silva, who seemed to know more about the plan than they did.
Meanwhile, after seeing everyone calm down, Delbrand finally started to speak up.
"What Silva said is true. His participation is a must in order for the plan to work."
At this moment, Mahinder finally opened his closed eyes and said, "I am here to pay for what I did. I assure you all that when my work is done, I am ready to accept whatever punishment is deemed appropriate for the crimes I have committed."
Now that everyone had time to hash out their doubts and confusions, the headmaster determined that the group was ready to hear the second part of the plan.
Even though the ship they currently boarded looked like an ordinary cargo ship from the outside, it had been specially prepared for their mission, including everything they needed for mission's success. Delbrand brought the seven acolytes to a room containing eight tubes, all connected to state-of-the-art equipment and surrounded by half a dozen people wearing white coats.
He then looked towards Emery and the others saying, "These are virtual training tubes. All of you will be training together here until you are deemed ready for the mission. If by the end of the deadline you're still not all set, I'd better scrap the plan altogether."
The group can see that the headmaster had prepared several mission modules for all seven of them to complete. It was definitely an important activity to strengthen their teamwork before the mission.
Just before they all entered the tubes and began their training, he announced one last thing. "You all will need a leader to make this mission successful. Therefore…"
The man selected three candidates to choose from; Olivier, Eeshoo, and Emery. The final decision would only be made after their training had been completed.
