Comments of chapter undefined of Tales of the Legendary Magus

lets see how much Villin has learned

WOW! The leaves me a bit speechless... I don't really understand why they are fighting - naturally to weaken the enemy school (sabotaging them) so they will have a harder time during the next competition. Also Villin is a commoner after all, so he most likely has no say in the thing (he has to fight, noone asked for his consent). And yet Crumb is prepared to make him the new Monarch. And the old guy set up so many flags in his speech... I just hope he survives!
