YM778.TV Chapter 247 Why Do You Want To Become My Student?
“You don’t need to be nervous. I wouldn’t have saved you if I hadn’t intended to accept you as my student. How about we talk about it more?”
Letting out those words, Allen snapped his finger as his body let out a surge of mana, causing a breeze that pulled up the hood of his white cloak. His face was fully revealed to Alisceon, which caused a blush in her as she witnessed his deep blue hair fluttering in the breeze of mana.
His icy blue eyes, which were cold at first glance, hid a kindness within, which made Alisceon inclined to trust him better than before.
While she was dazzled by Allen’s appearance thanks to his <Supreme Beauty> talent, the surge of mana that was let out by Allen wasn’t used by him to just make himself look better in front of Alisceon. He used that surge of mana to cast a magic spell as he restored the mangled bodies of the corpses of the royal knights to their previous state, but he didn’t revive them.
After all, if he revived those royal knights, they would hinder his plans of making Alisceon dependent on him, which was something that he didn’t want to happen. Allen wanted Alisceon’s full dependence and reliance on himself so that he could easily use her for his plans. But of course, that didn’t mean that he would mistreat her since he wasn’t a monster.
Allen felt that Alisceon experienced a past that was as tragic as his and even more so than his. Unlike Allen, who was loved by his younger brother, he noticed that Alisceon didn’t receive any love from her siblings, which made him pity her. That was why even if he planned to use her, he didn’t go as far as to make her life more miserable than it already was. He planned to at least make her life better than before.
When Allen was thinking of that, Alisceon was shocked when she witnessed that he was able to restore the corpses of the royal knights, as she saw him manipulate the mana surge that he had released before to bury all of those royal knights. His actions brought her to trust him more since she felt that he didn’t have any evil intentions, at least not towards her.
“Thank you.”
Alisceon thanked the white-cloaked mage for fixing and burying the corpses of her royal knights. She knew that with her current capabilities, she couldn’t even provide a burial for her royal knights to honor them since their corpses would attract the magic beasts inside the Mystic Forest, which would further endanger her.
With that in mind, she genuinely thanked him for what he had done since he didn’t dishonor the deaths of her loyal knights.
Allen only nodded at her as he used his mana to kill the High Realm Intermediate Stage magic beast as its body fell to the ground lifelessly. Allen used his mana to destroy the brain of the magic beast since he didn’t want to damage its corpse. After all, he had read fantasy novels, so he knew that carelessly dismantling the corpse of a magic beast would reduce its value.
When Alisceon witnessed him easily killing the High Realm Intermediate Stage magic beast, she was glad that her knights’ deaths were finally avenged. But for the white-cloaked mage to easily kill the High Realm Intermediate Stage as if it was nothing more than an ant, Alisceon knew that he was powerful.
Alisceon realized that to make her life a lot easier and safer than before, she had to make the white-cloaked mage her magic teacher and backer. So not only would she learn magic and increase her power, but she would also be a lot safer from the schemes of her royal siblings.
After Allen killed the magic beast, he stored it in his system inventory, which brought an astonished expression from Alisceon. After all, not many could use storage magic or even storage artifacts.
But what made Alisceon realize that Allen was stronger than the Gaia Kingdom Royal Court Mage was that he easily created a golden table and a set of expensive and comfortable chairs with just a wave of his hand.
Creation magic was even more difficult to achieve than storage or space magic since the mage needed to transform the mana particles into the properties of the object that they wanted to create. So not only complete mastery of mana manipulation was needed, but vast information about the object that the mage wanted to create was also needed to make creation magic achievable. Not to mention, using creation magic was not only difficult but also deemed a luxury since it took a lot of mana just to create a simple object, let alone numerous and complicated ones.
Even the royal court mage in the Gaia Kingdom wasn’t capable of using creation magic as if it was nothing! Although the royal court mage was capable of using creation magic to create simple objects, he still couldn’t use it on numerous objects at the same time haphazardly, unlike the white-cloaked mage in front of her!
‘Maybe, just maybe, if I can make him my magic teacher, I can finally live my life the way I want it to be.’
Alisceon thought to herself as she tightly clenched her skirt while resolving herself to do whatever she could to persuade the white-cloaked mage to become her magic teacher.
After Allen created the table and chairs using his <Supreme Creator> talent while using mana as his energy source to disguise it as a magic spell, he gestured for Alisceon to sit on the chair that was in front of him while he took a seat on the chair that was opposite to her.
After the five of them sat on their respective chairs, with Allen, Iris, John, and Deus facing in front of Alisceon, Allen used his <Supreme Creator> talent again to create a tea set while gesturing for Alisceon to drink it.
Taking a sip of his tea, displaying etiquette that was befitting of the <Supreme Prince> talent, Allen asked Alisceon.
“Why do you want to become my student?”
