Water and Fire Twins Magician

"Captain Jacques! The masked six have received another challenge!" Benyan and the others looked at Jacques with shining eyes.

"This time it was sent directly to the Ministry of Water Magic. Now all the freshmen know about it and are making a fuss!" said Benjen.

"Because the last incident was such a sensation, everyone has high expectations of us..."

All five of them seemed quite excited, except Jacques, who seemed to have no particular emotions.

"Jacques, what do you think?" Sandy asked expectantly.

"You all know that I'm about to set off for the frozen abyss, so..."

"But the challenge date is the night before you set off, which is tomorrow!" said Jennifer.

"This makes it even more impossible for me to participate, right? I have to..."

"Hey, you guys don't even mention the key points! Captain, don't you want to know who sent us the challenge? It was William! William Tell!" Bunyan said.

"Huh? Is it William?" Jacques was indeed surprised.

"That's him! He's the biggest obstacle in your fight for the Newborn King this year, right? That's why everyone's emotions are so high! Everyone thinks this is the preliminary battle for the Newborn King this year!"

"What freshman king? My goal this year is just to successfully enter the second grade..." Jacques sighed: "You know, I missed classes and couldn't take the exam. I'm thankful that I can successfully enter the second grade."

"So everyone knows that this battle is the real battle for the new king!" Sandy said excitedly.

"This challenge is open to the public. It's not just a fight between the two of you. It's also about the reputation of the entire department. Captain Jacques, we can't let you down." Bill, who was the calmest, also spoke up, "Please believe us. You won't regret it tomorrow night."

At this point, Jacques had no choice but to agree.

The most important reason why Jacques accepted the challenge was because he was also curious about this challenge. Based on his understanding of William, he was definitely not a troublemaker, and William was also one of the opponents he wanted to compete with the most.

Time soon came to the next night, and Jacques put on the hood and night clothes again, accepting the challenge of the Ministry of Wind Magic as one of the Masked Six.

He felt a little depressed. Now that he had become a public figure, he had to consider everyone's feelings in everything he did. He felt helpless and morally kidnapped.

Therefore, he repeatedly emphasized to Benjen and the others that this was just one time and it would not happen again. Moreover, he planned to announce to everyone after the battle that the Masked Six would disband and would not accept any more challenges, regardless of the outcome.

Jacques was not uninterested in challenging the strong, but he did not want the reputation of the Masked Six to become a burden to him, and he did not want Benjen and the others to be in danger because of him, just like the last battle in the back mountain.

The location of this challenge is the same as last time. I don’t know if it was intentional.

Setting foot on this familiar road up the mountain again, Jacques found that there were quite a few people coming to watch, but obviously not as many as last time, because this time it was mainly students from the Water Magic Department who came to watch the show.

Jacques and his party soon arrived at the site of the last decisive battle, where their opponent, William Tell, was already waiting. After not seeing him for so long, he seemed to have grown taller, but his expression was as cold as ever.

"Are you alone?" asked Jacques.

William shook his head slowly and raised his right hand. The bushes behind him began to shake violently, and the ambushing wind magicians appeared one after another. There were as many as seventy or eighty of them.

Now even Jacques became nervous.
