Chapter 119: Severe Punishment

Rem was going to meet Eliana when he noticed a massive crowd gathering in the distance. He also heard some loud noises coming, which made him want to check out.

"What is happening here?" He noticed Aira on her knees before Garrick. Aira stood up as soon as she saw Rem as she was already free of the shackles.

Rem also noticed Gabriel in the distance. Looking at the scene, it looked like a battle had just taken place here. Aira's expressions certainly told that story since she seemed really upset.

Gabriel and Alexai also appeared to be involved in whatever happened here.

Rem waited for anyone to explain to him about what happened. The first person to explain was Aira as she stepped forward. She wanted to take the lead and explain what happened here before Garrick could tell anyone with his biased point of view.

She told Rem all about her losing her Mission Letter. She also talked about Yoan, who informed her about Gabriel.

Yoan was the first one that Garrick had attacked. Even though the attack was intentionally light and not enough to hurt him, Yoan still stayed back as soon as he saw Garrick since he didn't want to involve himself in anything that could anger Garrick. He had to be an idiot to offend Garrick.

Despite that, now that he was in this mess, he agreed with Aira and swore on his life that he saw Gabriel pick up a letter from the ground and leave the Mission Hall.

Aira further talked about how she had stopped Gabriel and asked him to return the letter and that he not only refused but he was quite arrogant in his refusal.

"The letter wasn't in his clothes, that only left his gloves, so I asked him to let us check his gloves. In response, not only did he insult us, but he also insulted you!" Aira exclaimed. "He said he didn't even let you take off his gloves, let alone us. He was so arrogant and uncooperative that I had to interfere."

Hearing Aira talk about the words that Gabriel used for him, Rem was quite surprised. Then again, Gabriel wasn't lying. Even when he had asked him, Gabriel had refused last time.

Aira had expected Rem to get angry at Gabriel after hearing what he said, but Rem was relatively calm, as if he wasn't surprised. It made her wonder if Gabriel had spoken the truth. Did he really refuse Rem?

Unlike her, there were a few people who knew about it, Cain being one of them. They are the ones who were present there when it happened.

She further continued after getting no response. "Since he wasn't listening to me, and I was sure that he broke the rules, I was forced to use magic. I summoned my Snow Wolf, but only to stop him. However, instead of stopping, he attacked my Snow Wolf! And before I could react, Garrick arrived and attacked us!"

Finally, in the end, she mentioned the event with Garrick about how he attacked them.

Throughout her explanation, Garrick just stood, with his arms folded, as if he wasn't scared at what she was going to say. In his actions, he believed he was justified, and no one could deny that.

"Garrick, what do you say about that?" Rem asked Garrick after hearing Aira's side of the story. He wanted to listen to both sides.

Garrick nodded and started explaining.

"I was going to the Library of Spells when a young man came to me, telling me that a First Year Mage of Light was being attacked by a Fourth Year Mage of Summoning."

"I came here and noticed that it was more than that. It wasn't just one person being attacked. She was attacking Gabriel, a first-year Mage who isn't even close to her level, with her Snow Wolf. Not only her, but the guy beside her was also about to attack that young mage of Earth simply for trying to stop this fight."

"No matter what the reasons behind Aira's actions, what these two were doing was more of a bullying than anything else, and as a Student Representative of House of Light, it's my duty to protect our mages from such things. And that's what I did."

Unlike Aira, Garrick was more brief and precise in his explanation, finishing much faster. Instead of giving a detailed description of everything that happened, he only gave Rem a summary.

Rem closed his eyes momentarily and nodded. Both of them seemed to have a justification of their own, yet both had taken things to the extreme. Garrick was right.

It was wrong and very excessive for Aira to attack Gabriel. She didn't really need to attack him to stop him. If she wanted to, she could've taken other steps. He came to a decision after hearing both sides.

He first glanced at Aira. "Garrick was right. You shouldn't have gone this far. You could've approached a teacher for this instead of taking matters into your own hands. If it was about you fighting a Fourth Year mage or even a third-year mage instead of a first-year, I could've understood, but not in this case. You used way excessive force.'

"As a Head Council Member, I will be taking away half your credits that you have gathered. Moreover, the mission that you have selected from the Mission Hall, I'm taking back that as well. It will be available for another student now. And lastly, you are barred from entering the Tower of Challenges for the next month."

Gabriel expected Rem to side with Aira to ask him to take off his Gloves, but Rem appeared quite neutral for now. Gabriel didn't know if these punishments were severe, but looking at the expressions of the other students nearby, it did look like a significant punishment since they looked quite shocked.

"And Garrick." After giving a punishment to Aira, Rem turned to Garrick.

The young mages wondered if Rem was going to punish him too.

"You just did what you were supposed to do. You did follow the rules even though you went a bit overboard. Moreover, you only fought a Fourth Year Mage. That's why I will overlook this. However, if something like this happens again, try to de-escalate the situation."

Unlike Aira, Garrick avoided any punishments, which made Aira's heart burn in rage. If it weren't the Head Teacher of Earth, she would've probably considered Rem to be biassed.

"What about him? What should the Mission Letter which he hid that he wasn't supposed to?" she asked, pointing at Gabriel.

"I'm coming to that as well," Rem responded before turning to Gabriel. The two men were face to face once again in such a short time.
