The Tales of Draconic Warlock

The problems came one by one.

First, when the Royal Academy staff found that she and William were conspiring with Dorian to kill Magnus in the secret realm, they were doomed. The academy expelled both from the academy.

It means that there was no way that they could gain a foothold easily in society.

The nobles wanted their children to graduate from the Royal Academy because it was a very prestigious institute. Graduating from that means that you are one of the best.

There are many in the society who graduated from the Royal Academy. They are the elites of the society and the pillars that support Glessaria. Though their allegiance doesn't belong to the academy, as alumni of the academy, their decisions would probably be in favour of the academy as long as it won't conflict with their interests.

Elisha and William are small fries, and that means that they can't find anything good in society as they were expelled from the academy.

No one would go on their way to make it easy for them in the future. After all, these two were expelled from the academy for the crimes of being in conspiracy to kill a student of the Royal Academy.

Since they were not the ones who tried to kill the student directly, and the one that they tried to kill was alive, these two were only expelled after having talks with the families of the two accused.

This was their punishment. If they ever want to reach the sky, that may not happen in the kingdom of Glessaria. They have to leave this kingdom, which would be their only chance unless something big happens that can cover what happened.

For now, the topic of the town was the conspiracy of Elisha and William to kill Magnus.

In the noble's circle, conspiracies to bring one another down are common but they are always done in a fashion such that no one points out at them for that. Everything should be done in shadows and leave no evidence of what happened. If there was any evidence, they would be done, and that was what happened to those two.

Even though they were clever and didn't directly plan to eliminate Magnus, they did leave some breadcrumbs for Magnus to follow. Whatever he was able to find, gave the staff of the academy a way to dig out everything that happened and caused their expulsion.

The only reason why those two were still alive was that one of those two was an heir to the Count's house, while the victim was just a son of a Viscount. If he was the heir, then the outcome might have been much different.

The outcome of a prosecution depends on your ability, either your direct ability or your background.

If Magnus was in a higher position when compared to William and Elisha, then the punishment would have been severe. The highest punishment would have been dealt if they were of common origin. Luckily those two are of noble birth.

One was from a Count's house and the other from a Viscount's house.

When compared to Magnus's position, either they are on the same level or a higher level. So the punishment from the academy stopped with expulsion.

One may think that it is not fair and the punishment for a crime should be equal but that was not the case.

There is no fairness, no matter what world you look at.

Even on Earth, someone with a lot of wealth can get out of trouble just by paying some fine instead of going to Prison for the same crime that imprisoned some poor man.

Normally in Ragos, one can only become a noble if they have made any achievements that would help the kingdom or the empire.

It means the higher the family's noble Rank is the greater the contributions they made to the kingdom or the empire.

So when there are any prosecutions regarding that noble family, as long as the crimes committed by the noble house descendants are too vile, they won't face any repercussions.

If Magnus had died and the crime was uncovered then they would have faced much severe punishment.

The only issue was that the staff of the academy didn't find out about the crime on their own.

If not for the rumours spread by William himself, everything would have been buried and forgotten by everyone.

William and Elisha could have gotten away without any issues.

--

Once she was expelled and due to the reason behind the expulsion, her family had to pay a lot to the Frostwolf family.

In the first, the Frostwolf family helped the Siren family without getting anything in return. The only thing that they were going to get was Elisha, as a wife to Magnus.

Now that the same girl conspired to kill Magnus.

It means a lot of compensation.

First, the Siren family had to pay for the help that the Frostwolf family lent back then, and the interest for that was more than a decade of interest.

Second, since she tried to kill Magnus, the marriage pact was automatically dissolved and for that act, the family has to pay another compensation.

To be said, the Siren family is the true loser of this incident.

Elisha learned that William's family paid a small compensation to the Frostwolf family and that was the only thing that she heard about William's side.

After the expulsion, the contact between them was lost. She hasn't spoken to William in half a year.

She lost her chance to marry into the Frotwof family, and what she is concerned about is whether she can become the wife of William or not. With no contact for over six months, the chances of that happening ever were decreasing day by day.

She knew that there was a chance that the entire blame would be placed on her, even though William was the reason behind that.

William knew that she had a fiance but still, he pursued her. He was the one who planned everything. He was the one who decided to get rid of Magnus and used Dorian as a pawn to do so. When that failed, he even created rumours that would make Magnus expelled from the academy.

What happened in the end was that they were the ones expelled from the academy.

Moreover, her family had to pay a lot of gold and resources to the Frostwolf family as compensation. t kind of ruined her family.

The Siren family had seen a lot of destruction a few years back. They were slowly recovering, but now, with this, if not properly handled, one of the bigger noble clans could swallow them.

Her mother was angry with her, as she was excluded from the noble wives club, which is the way to gather some information that could be helpful for her family.

Even her father is facing backlash.

No one would welcome a backstabber into their circle. It was one thing to cause damage to a stranger but to harm someone who was once closer to you, who would believe in you afterwards.

The Frostwolf family came to the aid of the Siren family, while no other responded. They even took a lot of hits in that disaster but gained nothing in return.

The idea of marrying Magnus and Elisha came from the Siren family.

Now they found some rich thigh and wanted to hop ships, they tried to get rid of Magnus, who was not only Elisha's fiance but the son of a friend.

No one would believe that Elisha did everything behind her family's back.

So, the blame shifted onto the Siren family.

What they didn't know was that the blaming game was started by someone, someone that they thought would do something like that.

---

One thing that can be said for sure is that Elisha didn't have experienced a good day since that day.

What her future holds, no one knows, not even her.

For now, all she could do was work hard to recover from the recent devastation to the family's treasury.

What was supposed to be the capital for their family's future, now belonged to someone.

Since she was the reason for the family's misfortune, she had to do her part in improving the family's situation.

She has no reason to say no and she didn't either.

Elisha decided to undo the damage that she caused to her family for her selfish reasons.

She could have just stated that she didn't like Magnus and her heart belonged to someone else.

There was a chance that she could have gained what she wanted without losing anything.

To Elisha, she lost a potential powerhouse as her husband, and also, there is a high chance that William left her to dry.

If that was not the case, he would have contacted her a long time ago but didn't.

Even if she knew that there was nothing that she could say or do about it.

It's time to move on with her life.
