Instigator and Protector of Violence

Chapter 175: [Founder's Day]


This is El's late spring.

In the imagery of art, late spring is the most beautiful season.

El has never felt as good as he does now.

Perhaps soon, he will be able to remove the word "acting" from his title and become the true Principal Winster.

Because he successfully hosted Winster University's centennial celebration.

What a significant symbol that would be.

Actually, some time ago, he was quite worried and fearful, naturally due to Ethan's arrest for money laundering.

He was very afraid of being implicated, and at that time, Ethan's project at Winster University had already started.

El was even planning to run away at all costs.

Fortunately, Ethan made it through again.

Truly worthy of Ethan, a man who always manages to create miracles.

Now everything is back on track.

The university celebration is about to begin, Ethan's personal art exhibition, and auction are also today.

Who knows how many people are gathering at Winster.

Previously, Winster University had some fame in the northern Kingdom, but it never caught the eyes of Royal Capital's journalists.

This time, several Royal Capital journalists contacted him, saying they wanted to interview him and do a feature report on Winster University.

After this, won't Winster University have the opportunity to become a nationally renowned university, even on par with the Kingdom Art Academy?

Thinking of this, El felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

He quickly continued adjusting his attire in the mirror.

This was a custom outfit he spent a lot of money on, and he must ensure he doesn't lose his composure or elegance at this celebration.

After adjusting his attire for a while, he couldn't contain himself and called Ethan, cautiously asking if Ethan had left yet.

It wasn't that he feared Ethan wouldn't come, he was just too nervous and excited, afraid something might go wrong.

After receiving a clear answer that Ethan was about to leave and that Chief Judge Ned would also be attending today, he couldn't help but clench his fist tightly.

Next was confirming if the Governor and City Hall officials, various members of the parliament, and the city's dignitaries had arrived.

Thinking about how many important figures would be present, El couldn't contain his excitement.

Today is truly a grand feast.

——————

After receiving El's call, Ethan headed out.

Today he also invited the white-clothed priest Otto.

They have already reached a cooperation, including helping them find people.

Once the car entered the city, Winster was indeed bustling today, filled with people and celebratory parades everywhere.

This was no longer just Winster University's anniversary celebration; it had become a city-wide festivity.

But as they passed a street corner, Ethan noticed something different.

In the alley, there were some workers busy, some of whom had distinctly non-coastal northern features, stern-faced men.

Judging by their sturdy bodies and indifferent expressions, they were members of the Steel Brotherhood.

"What, they haven't finished their sewer project yet?"

Ethan asked Anya.

"They haven't been able to operate on land reclamation recently, so it seems they've all been assigned to the sewer, which has undergone more extensive renovations than expected."

"So their manpower is quite dispersed today?"

"That's right."

"That's good."

The car meandered its way to Winster University by the sea cliff.

The reporters were already waiting.

The moment he got out of the car, the intense flash of cameras met him.

Ethan calmly accepted them and conducted a brief interview.

"…Ladies and gentlemen, there's no need to ask me so much, just look at my works later. Everything I want to say is in my works." This statement stirred curiosity and anticipation among the crowd.

To understand, this was Ethan's first official personal art exhibition. Considering Ethan's age, and the artistic talent he displayed at such a young age, the work he created would cement his status as a master, perhaps even surpass Pupol.

The debut of such a master is extremely valuable news material.

Under the escort of the school's security, Ethan made his way through the crowd while the cameras continued to flash at him.

Today, the campus was especially lively. As soon as Ethan stepped in, he was surrounded by the crowd, everyone greeting him, talking to him, and someone even creatively asking for his autograph.

With the first request for an autograph, naturally more followed. If El hadn't come to the rescue, Ethan might have had a hard time getting inside today.

"Ethan, you're becoming more and more famous now."

El said half-jokingly.

"Principal El, you will soon be too. After today, you and Winster University will be famous together."

Hearing this, El felt a swell of delight but tried hard to stay composed, reminding himself to remain reserved.

"By the way, Ethan, that… I couldn't invite him, why don't you give it a try?"

The person he was referring to was naturally Gustav.

Recently, Gustav had finished organizing his academic achievements and asked Ethan to help publish them in Royal Capital's academic journal.

Ethan helped him, thinking that Gustav wanted to gain fame through this, so he invited him to the celebration, hoping to announce his achievements and thereby give Winster University a new strong department while making Gustav renowned.

A mutually beneficial situation.

Unexpectedly, Gustav refused.

It seems Ethan misunderstood his intentions; he simply wanted to prove himself in academia.

"Never mind, if he doesn't want to come, we shouldn't force it."

Soon, more people arrived.

The city's dignitaries, City Hall officials.

Including Ned, Sofia, Bob, and… Oswaldo.

He was the most crucial figure.

He had to come today.

Otherwise, how would this grand play prepared for him begin?

Additionally, Ethan spotted the white-clothed priest Otto.

The attendees were all set.

"Mr. Oswaldo, long time no see, how come your good friend Vito isn't here today?" Ethan went up to greet Oswaldo.

"Was he invited today? I don't think so," Oswaldo smiled.

"Wasn't he?" Ethan looked back at El.

"Uh… he was invited, maybe… someone below made a mistake. I'll go check." El, feeling tense, still wasn't used to this level of atmosphere.

Actually, it was Ethan who told him not to send an invitation to Vito.

Ethan certainly couldn't invite Vito, not due to personal likes or dislikes, but because today, he needed to tackle them one by one.

"Never mind, he wouldn't appreciate art anyway, it's just as well he didn't come." Oswaldo waved dismissively, telling El not to worry.

And with the arrival of these important figures, the atmosphere of the celebration gradually reached its peak; it was time to proceed to the main event of the celebration.
