The adepts on the wooden balcony also craned their necks to look outside. Whispers could be heard in the auditorium.
When they heard the undisguised contempt of the word 'goblin', they understood that it was the school's guardian, Pukeke who was in conflict with the recipients of the Magic Kingdom. Although Pukeke was a close relative of goblins and goblins, even foreign wizards who had reached adulthood would be able to tell the difference between them. Directly calling Pukeke a goblin was basically pointing at a wizard who was born as a chicken and calling him a muddy creature.
Everyone knew that they didn't like wizards, and they often had small conflicts with the wizards in their schools. Still, many of them felt insulted, especially the wizards from Pukeke Academy. They didn't even bother to hide their anger.
An Aura from the United Magic Kingdom and a professor from the Elfhramuni Academy walked in quickly.
Aura took the lead and reported briefly to Albert and Penello, "Sir, Officer Skorzne had an argument with an old Pukeke outside."
The young professor's face turned red as he tried to explain, "This is a misunderstanding. That Aura wanted to clean Aesop's sculpture, but William was there …"
The good atmosphere disappeared in an instant. Penello's face darkened. Albert also stopped smiling and walked out with the others. The wizards on the wooden balcony also rushed out.
"What's going on?" Penello glanced at the fatty holding a magic staff, the doctor with his arms crossed, and a very old Pukeke who was holding a bow at the door.
Pukeke was short, his body was covered in long thorns, and his body was stooped. His gray skin was wrinkled, and the joints of his sharp, bony claws were very prominent. He looked like an old hedgehog.
"I'm sorry, Master Albert and Penello. I just saw that the marble statue at the door was too dirty. You know that I'm used to working for the Wolf Mother, so I wanted to clean it up … But that old Pukeke stopped me." Seeing the wizards rushing out, the fatty realized that his behavior had made a big deal out of the situation. He quickly stepped forward to explain.
"This is a misunderstanding! I just told you that there's another reason why it's stopping us. " The young professor who had just gone to report to the Iffamoni hurriedly shouted again. He explained to Penello and the others nervously, "This is the tradition of the Iffamoni. William doesn't allow anyone to clean the Aesop marble statue at the entrance of the campus … It's usually in charge of taking care of it himself … This is his taboo. For a long time, we have always respected this request of his."
"Let's get this straight. We're here to take over the school. Fatty is just doing a good deed. He has no ill intentions! This kind of fairy that isn't an adept and even views adepts as an enemy should be taught a lesson. " The shadow cast by the doctor's tall height almost covered the shadow of old Pukeke. She played with her Nepalese inverted curved sword, her voice elegant and cold.
"Director Harris, Miss Krivat, this Pukeke is very old. We believe that it's really our founder, Aesop's Pukeke called William … In fact, this behavior shows that he still maintains loyalty and friendship to Aesop even though he's more than three hundred years old. In this regard, he's a friend of the Iffamoni … Please forgive his behavior … He's already delirious and doesn't respond to many words." Vontana also rushed over and softened his voice to persuade them.
The principal who had figured out what was going on was now in a very difficult position. He knew that Harris and the others did not have a good impression of fairies. The beautiful witch in front of him obviously did not have a good impression of William. Her temper was as violent as Krivat's. He started with William's symbolic meaning to the Iffamoni and tried to persuade the gentle Albert to protect William.
"No matter who he is, Principal Vontana, I advise you to consider your own situation … Since he's delirious, no matter who he is, he's not suitable to be placed in front of the school gate. Aren't you worried that he'll go crazy and hurt the students?" Penello switched the wand in her hand. Of course, she supported Fatty, the doctor, and the others. Not to mention that their actions were reasonable, even if they were unreasonable, they were here to take over the school, not to be nannies for these guys.
Seeing that the other party, who had just shown some goodwill with great difficulty, began to look unfriendly again, Vontana smiled bitterly and lowered his posture further, "Miss Krivat, I apologize on behalf of William. Please forgive this muddle-headed old Pukeke."
"Forget it. Since it's just a misunderstanding, Principal Vontana, take this Pukeke away. We'll continue to complete the work of taking over." Albert said methodically. He felt that if the Iffamoni wizards continued to drag things out, things could easily get out of hand. Although he was not worried that the group of Aura would delay the work of taking over the students and professors, it was better to avoid as much trouble as possible. It would be easier to complete the occupation of the American magic world and inform them in the future.
William, who had lost his teeth, was still muttering at the side. Obviously, he was delirious. If he was really the William who saved the founder of the Iffamoni, Albert thought that there should be basic respect for such Warriors, no matter what race they were.
The young professor before responded to Vontana's order and lowered his body. Pukeke and the others left, but this group of Pukeke stood behind William with bows and arrows in their hands. They did not have the slightest intention to retreat.
"We're not house elves." A Pukeke who was in his prime roared. His voice was even rougher and did not sound like a human's voice. "We're here to protect you little wizards who can't protect yourselves!"
In the eyes of these Pukeke, William was the leader of the guards. He had led his people to protect the Iffamoni for a long time. They would never admit that the wizards had the right to order them … These Pukeke yelled and kept complaining.
"You can't touch this statue … never allowed …" Old Pukeke's voice was old and rough, but the hostility in his tone was very clear.
"The Iffamoni is now under the control of the United Magic Kingdom." Penello looked at the Pukeke coldly. "The more professional Aura will be responsible for the safety issues in the future … But since Pukeke has been a part of the Iffamoni for a long time, we still think that you can continue to stay, but you can no longer serve as guards. This should be the responsibility of the wizards. I don't understand why you would give it to other creatures to complete …"
"William has lived for more than three hundred years. He's already a little muddle-headed. Can't he respect our traditions?"
"William would put a few May flowers on Aesop's grave every year on the anniversary of Aesop's death … Without William, there might not be a Iffamoni!"
"How many years have they protected us? As long as we don't touch his taboo, everyone can live in peace. "
The students who were watching by the side glared at Penello angrily. Anger and humiliation were like burning flames that rose in their hearts and burned more and more fiercely. They could no longer care about the instructions of the principal and the professors. They all opened their mouths to defend William. Some Leopard Cat Academy students even recklessly reached for their wands.
The professors' appeasement and even orders could no longer stop these students. The Aura of the United Magic Kingdom keenly sensed the situation and issued a warning.
"Put down your wands! Do you want to be expelled?!! " The Aura scolded the wizards who were clamoring. She also took out her wands and pointed them at the students who were holding their wands, warning them to stop this threatening behavior.
Even if these wizards from the Warriors Academy were still students after all, they were still suppressed by these fully armed Aura. They still regained their rationality and most of them stopped speaking.
But before the Iffamoni professors could breathe a sigh of relief, they saw some of the little wizards being pointed at by the Aura's wands. A few Pukeke put poisonous arrows on their bows and aimed at the Aura. This instantly made the well-trained Aura take out their wands. At this time, the situation became even worse.
"Everyone listen to my orders! Arrest those who obstruct the United Magic Kingdom's acceptance of the Iffamoni! " Albert took the lead to give the order. Although he originally wanted to resolve this kind of incident gently, now that he realized that this school, even the professors who were nominally cooperating with them to accept the Iffamoni, did not understand the situation in their bones. As the commander, Albert realized that he should wake them up.
"There are no restrictions on violent resistance methods!" Penello added. She turned her wand into a whip and cracked it in the air. She raised her chin at Fatty. "Otto, if you want to wipe the statue, wipe it. If you want to blow it up, go ahead. I want to see who dares to stop you!"
