33. The Mysterious Golden-Glassed Man
Sebastian arrived at the venue for the Starlight Competition and found Gavriel standing outside with all his materials and equipment, pacing frantically. Sebastain could hear from the host’s voice that the opening formalities of the competition had already started, and Gavriel had yet to set up his station.Sebastian ran up to him, “Gav, what are you doing out here?”“This Big guy wouldn’t let me in! Conrad saw me when I just arrived and placed him here to stop me from entering the hall, no matter what. I tried to get the attention of the competition staff, but this big guy,” he gestured to a man in black shades and black suit, with a telecom in his ear, “keeps standing in my way!” Gavriel stomped his foot in indignation.“I tried fighting him off once and hurt my back in the process. I don’t know what to do, Seb. I couldn’t call you for fear of distracting you from your own competition. I’m really glad you made it in time.” Gav looked at Seb with teary eyes.“Who is Conrad?” Sebastian
32. The Condition
The other presentations from the other teams went by in a blur.However, one thing was clear in everyone’s mind, Sebastian’s team already won. Lecturer Grizzalo announcing it at the end was a mere formality to everyone.Leonard’s team came in last.“And the winners of today’s Starmine Competition are Team Sebastain and Cecile!” Lecturer Grizzalo announced. A loud applause followed.Sebastian smirked mockingly at Leonard. He fell into his trap splendidly.When Leonard saw Sebastian’s smirk, realisation dawned on him. Sebastian had set him up! And he fell into the trap! That means Sebastian knew he was going to steal his project idea from the beginning and was ready!The more he thought about how he was utterly fooled and humiliated, the more his blood boiled and his thirst for revenge grew. He met Sebastian’s smirk with a fierce glare of his own, his gaze promising cold revenge.Lecturer Grizzalo's voice rang out, “Now some may be wondering why, for a project that shares a similar locat
31. Project Elmagical
There was pin-drop silence and awe from the sheer magnificence of what they could see. Leonard’s awe quickly turned into gloom, then simmering anger!“This is the true nature of our project.” Cecile smiled at everyone, captivating the audience once more and Sebastian nodded beside her.“I had wanted to lay a foundation first before revealing the full model but things turned out the way it did, so here we are.”“Elemour is a rich land for any constructor who would be daring enough to make something of it – And we are those daring constructors, willing and ready to make something out of Elemour.”“The vast and beautiful sea Leonard mentioned earlier isn’t just any mere sea for speedboat races, it is part of a major ocean, ocean Titan. It’s perfect for international shipping and maritime trade. Picture cargo ships, naval fleets, massive Titanics, deep-sea fishing, on-sea facilities…” She added a dramatic flare with her hands as she enunciated each word; “…the possibilities are endless. I
30. I would Never let you win Leonard, Never!
Expatriate Wilson held Sebastian’s angry gaze with his own, there was a mini-starring contest between the two as he considered all the possibilities.Brushing off the situation was not an option as news of what happened would still reach Country B. And if they knew he was here and did nothing about the situation, there would be a pound of flesh to pay.Secondly, if he used Sebastian as a scapegoat, the possibility of Cecile intervening was very high, judging from her disposition.If he used any other person, apart from Alexo as a scapegoat, he had a feeling Sebastian would do something to make the situation escalate even further. The only option was to do as Sebastian wanted. The boy weaved the trap perfectly and he could only dance to his tune as a pawn in his plan.With what just happened, if he had doubts before about Sebastian’s academic standing as he had heard, or even doubted his capabilities from the drama that was happening with his project, all the doubts evaporated with Seb
29. Drag her out of the stage!
“How is it not the same thing? The scale model of Sebastian’s project is exactly the same as that of Leonard!”“Yeah!”“If it weren’t the same project, how is it possible that it has the same features as that of Leonard?”“Exactly!” There were mixed reactions among the students in the crowd.“I guess we’ll find out after my presentation if the two projects are truly similar or not.” Cecile gave a charming smile that sent millions of hearts melting, male and female. All their attention was fully on her now and the room was still.Everyone was paying rapt attention to hear what she would say, and how she would turn this project, which was a replica of Leonard’s own into something different.“I would like to point out a few things about Elemour. Just like Leonard rightly mentioned, it is indeed a hilly and mountainous terrain. One so scary-looking, it was written off as a waste land, laying bare for any constructor who would be daring enough to make something of it.”“However, the mounta
28. Who said our Projects are similar?
The more Cecile thought about it, the stranger it was.Why would Leonard be so confident in presenting the stolen design without making any adjustments to it? The pairs were to be called up randomly, so how was he so certain that he would present before her and Sebastian?Her guess was, that Leonard didn’t just tamper with the timing of the presentation, he also tampered with Lecturer Grizzalo’s shuffling program. With that realization, she smiled as she wheeled up their prototype. It was covered with a white cloak.“Where is Sebastian?” One of Leonard’s minions shouted from the sidelines.“Yeah, it’s supposed to be a team presentation, not a solo presentation.” Yet another minion added.Cecile looked to Lecturer Grizzalo and he clarified, “Sebastian took an excuse from me this morning to get a report which he needs for this project. He mentioned he would be back before his partner was done so let’s wait and see, shall we? In the meantime, Cecile, please proceed. If he’s not back by th
