Chapter 91: Whispers of a Future Storm
Just as Ash left the room, all the Saints turned toward Nichole—their gazes burning with an intensity that made the air feel heavier.
It was Mark who spoke first, his tone cold but calm.
"You never told us there was such a bold kid in your academy. Were you secretly raising a dragon while keeping us distracted with a tiger?"
Hearing that sharp remark from Mark, Nichole broke into a cold sweat. That damn brat... because of him, I have to take all their anger on myself.
"Let me ex—" he tried to explain, but Maelis didn’t let him finish. He grabbed him by the collar, his eyes blazing.
"That kid openly disrespected me, and I still chose to remain silent. Tell me, how do you expect my anger to just disappear after that?"
Sigh... my life really is a mess.

After managing to calm them down, Saint Nichole explained everything he knew about Ash—his sudden appearance, his strange potential, and even the things Nichole himself hadn’t been aware of, like how bold the kid truly was.
Hearing his explanation, Alice suddenly shouted,
"What do you mean his potential is capped at Grandmaster Rank? Are you seriously trying to tell us that?"
