The school held its annual magic competition, and Arya and her classmates actively participated. The competition covered various challenges of magical skills, from dueling to magical creation.
But the approaching competition gave Garys a headache.
He realized the need to attend his daughter's meaningful competition as a father, but he also had to stay close to Arya as Gary to ensure her safety. So he quickly contacted his most trusted Warlock, Enot, and ordered him to appear at the venue as Guilas, to attend Arya's first major competition as a father.
At the same time, he also had Maxi dress up as Garys's father, and they came together to participate in the competition, in order to provide assistance when necessary.
When night falls, the square of Nordland College is illuminated by a brilliant display of lights. The huge stage quietly awaits the participants of the competition, and the colorful lights interweave with the night sky, casting the entire venue in a riot of colors.
In the crowd, the smiling faces of parents and students shine like stars, eagerly anticipating this grand competition.
Garys (Guilas in disguise) gazed at the stage lights, his heart filled with anticipation and blessings for his daughter Arya. His disguise allowed him to observe Arya's performance up close, and also made him feel the honor and responsibility of being a father.
Arya, Logan, Selena, and other members of the magic research society stood among the crowd, their eyes shining with excitement and anticipation. This competition was an excellent opportunity for them to showcase their magical talents and demonstrate the results of their hard work.
"Look, the game is about to start!" Arya exclaimed excitedly, her eyes fixed on every detail on the stage.
"This stage is truly spectacular!" Logan marveled, his eyes fixed on the light show on the stage.
"I can't wait to show off my magic!" Selena said with a smile, filled with confidence and anticipation.
With the host's announcement, the competition officially began, and the stage lights were dazzling, creating a lively atmosphere.
The start of the competition is exhilarating, with each participant showcasing their unique magical skills and creativity, bringing the audience a series of spectacular magic performances.
The competition, named "Noland Magic Festival", has been held for a hundred years, attracting countless attention and participation every year.
This year, Arya and her friends will leave their own brilliant chapter on this stage.
There was a subtle tension in the atmosphere during the break. Arya, Logan, Selena, and Garys walked towards the parents' area together, and Arya's eyes searched the crowd for that familiar figure.
When she finally saw Enot disguised as Guilas, a pure and innocent smile lit up her face. She ran over excitedly, calling out, "Dad!"
However, when Enot tried to respond to Arya in the guise of Guilas, his actions seemed somewhat stiff and unnatural, far from the warmth and skill of Guilas himself.
This slight abnormality did not escape Garys's eyes, and a hint of displeasure rose in his heart. He secretly regretted not having Lily play this role; her love for Arya evidently would have been more natural and profound.
Logan and Selena also noticed this scene, but they didn't understand what was happening, so they just stood quietly to the side, not knowing what to do.
The atmosphere became a bit awkward for a moment, but Arya seemed unaware and continued to hold Enot tightly, sharing her excitement and nervousness about the upcoming performance.
Garys silently vowed in his heart that he would protect Arya no matter what, ensuring that she could safely enjoy the competition.
He also walked over to greet Maxi, who was pretending to be his own father.
And I don't know how to be like my father, Maxi, is very nervous, especially pretending to be the demon king father.
The interaction between the two is also quite awkward. This caught Arya's attention, and she curiously asked Garys, "Garys, why do you and your father look so unfamiliar?"
Garys smiled faintly, trying to conceal his embarrassment and unease. He gently said to Arya, "Oh, Arya, you know, my father and I are both quite independent people. Although we care about each other, we don't show it much in our daily lives. Besides, my father has been busy dealing with some... well, matters outside of the wizarding school, so we haven't had much time together."
Garys' words were vague but also conveyed a hint of warmth. He hoped to use this to ease any strangeness Arya might feel, while also maintaining the secret between him and Warlock Maxi and Enot.
Fortunately, Arya has always been slow in this regard. She seemed to accept this explanation, nodded, and then turned her attention back to the competition. "So... are you ready for your part? I'm really looking forward to seeing your magic in action!" she asked excitedly, her eyes shining with support and anticipation for her friend.
Garys smiled at this and replied, "Of course, I'm all set. I'm also looking forward to seeing your performance, Arya. I believe you'll do great."
Subsequently, the competition resumed, and Arya and Garys along with other participants returned to their positions, ready to face the upcoming challenges.
Despite the atmosphere having become awkward for a moment, Arya was looking forward to the upcoming performance, while Garys silently prayed for her in his heart, hoping that she would shine in this grand magic festival.
Enot disguised as Guilas and, like other parents, stared unwaveringly at the stage, silently cheering for Arya in hopes that she would shine in this grand magic ceremony.
