BXBX NOVEL Chapter 839: What they lack
"You\'re gonna say anything or what? We don\'t have the whole day, you know?"
"Classes will start after an hour so we don\'t have long either.
If there\'s nothing you want to say right now, we can just do the introductions, which I don\'t see as necessary here, and we can meet again in the evening."
We waited since we thought as adults, the two of them would know how to behave and do things, but it seems like we were wrong.
\'Both of them are only adults in age.\'
One of the oldest witches of this world was only glaring at him with an upset look while the divine archer famous for his numerous heroic exploits was sadly looking down, acting as if his heart was broken by that insignificant fight that the two have had just now.
It was a child-like behaviour that suited neither of them, so after waiting for five whole minutes and giving the two of them the benefit of the doubt, we were finally done with this play.
"Wait! You can\'t just go with some simple introduction! We were called here to teach you a bunch! We have to see if you at least deserve our teaching or not!"
The witch of luxury, Sapphire, was a unique individual famous all over the world for her unique achievements in the fields of Art, Science, magic, and Creation.
She was not only one of the few grand craftsmen with the knowledge and abilities to craft various kinds of things, but she was also one of the strongest people in this world.
\'Her command over her unique witchcraft was spectacular. There was perhaps no other grandmaster Origin skill user like her either.\'
She had defeated some of the most threatening beings in the world, she had created some of the most important masterpieces of this world, and she was the sole owner of some of the most influential pieces of human history that numerous individuals from all over the world would pay a fortune to just glance at.
She had various achievements to her name and various nicknames as well. But she was mainly famous as the witch possessing various riches, and the (Collector of Artifacts).
But, that was not important to us at the moment.
"Well, if you want to check if we deserve your teachings or not, you should first show us if you deserve to teach us not not."
Rein was already angry at them, but now she was making things worse.
"W-what do you mean? Of course we deserve to teach someone recommended by the headmaster! He\'s a picky one! If he brought us here, there definitely has to be some reason behind it!"
She was not flabbergasted but she was most certainly showing signs of a genuine surprise.
It seemed like she was not expecting something like that from either of us but after what we had been through last night, that long contemplation and mental marathon, she was in no mood to deal with another nuisance.
"Haaa. Doesn\'t prove anything."
She shook her head and walked to the other side of the room with a disappointed expression.
"You are famous people, ugh. Finish this little drama and let\'s get serious.
We can\'t waste time like this when there is so little time left."
She knew her. She knew both of them, actually. And just like in the cave, she could tell both of them were more unique individuals than what met to one\'s simple eyes.
\'She could see their power levels now.\'
She couldn\'t do it until yesterday but all of a sudden, she started seeing the qualified power levels of the people before her— something pretty different from seeing their complete status window as she explained it.
It was not even as detailed as what we see in one\'s status windows.
\'She could see the potential of someone before her and how dangerous they were in the form of a grade that was similar to what we used in the adventurer association.\'
And these grades had their own colours divided into the ranks that we assign to various energy beasts.
It was quite unique, but also a simple way to tell how strong someone was as well.
[{ "S rank… purple S rank. Eon, if even they are S rank and headmaster is Green SS rank… just what kind of people have a Purple SSS rank?" }]
She was terrified with how her eyes were measuring these things or on what criteria they were assigning these numbers.
But, she was still in control of herself.
[{ "Just like us, perhaps there are some things that your eyes see in a different way.
Perhaps, the pure strength is not the right criteria for these ranks, you know?" }]
In her eyes, I was merely a colourless C rank. Which was strange since I was the only one that had received that colour of grading from her eyes.
\'Even Zoe had a White rank D that perhaps indicated that she was a divine beast.\'
We still had not tested it enough so there was a lot that we did not know about this new ability of hers.
So, there was no need for her to be shaken by the kind of grading they had received even with their achievements.
"Haaa. We can continue this later."
The divine archer, sir Vïér looked right at the lady witch as he declared that and stood up from his place.
"Sure. Let\'s do that… pointy eared pig."
And she accepted his declaration as she stood up from her place as well.
"I shall start with my introduction as the one to start this whole misunderstanding-."
"Ha! You finally accepted your-."
"Which had nothing to do with you two."
She cut him off midway and he did the same. And then they both shut down and introduced themselves simply.
"Good, now we are at least getting somewhere."
And then we introduced ourselves and sat down for a moment.
"So, I\'m going to be in charge of Miss Reinelle and he will be looking after mister Axion. I see."
"You didn\'t know that until now?" Rein was stunned for a moment, but then she shook her head once again with that same disappointed look. Experience tales with m v|l -NovelFire.net
"You two are something, ugh!"
She seemed to be done with their bullshit already… I don\'t know how she will handle her for the next few months.
"Oh don\'t be like that now. How would we know who we were going to teach when the headmaster only said he had two kids that we would love.
He even bet one of his precious treasures on the line that I\'ll like whoever the person in question is.
But, it seems like he won this time as well, haaaa."
She listened to what lady Sapphire said and after glaring at her for a moment and contemplating, she nodded it off.
"Alright. Let\'s go ahead with this."
It wasn\'t difficult to believe he would have lured her with a bet like that since inviting individuals like them is already a difficult task.
Knowing them and their individual natures, we could tell that this was not any simple task even for the headmaster.
"Hmm. Alright. So… now that we\'ve done the introduction and know a little about one another, how about we talk about what we are going to teach you two first.
We have fifteen minutes so, we can chat for a while, right?"
"Hmmm?"
These words from the divine archer confused us for a moment.
\'Just a while ago, she was arguing how she had to see if we are worthy enough to learn from them and how they wanted us to take some kind of test.\'
But now he was talking about what they were going to teach us.
Which meant that not only had he accepted his role as a mentor, he was also looking forward to teaching us… teach me.
"Don\'t be surprised now.
She just said that she lost the bet, didn\'t she? So, isn\'t it obvious that you two already passed the test?"
The young looking sir divine archer smile at us for a moment before looking in my eyes.
"So…"
At the same time, Lady Sapphire looked into Eein\'s eyes with a smile on her face as well.
"You are an excellent archer with the best basics that I\'ve seen in my entire life.
I\'d say your basics are as refined as my own already… a feat I did not know was possible at such a young humans age."
He looked me up and down with a unique glimmer in his silver eyes, a blush of excitement present in his face.
"And you are good with both your magic and weapon arts. I can tell you have put a lot of effort into refining both your skills under proper guidance."
A similar blush of excitement was present on her face as well… and truthfully, this was creepy.
"You know very well what you two are good at."
"And you know well how you can improve in those areas as well. It\'s pretty obvious."
The way they were saying it showed just how much they had already analysed us in this short time.
And, we had not even been with them for more than an hour.
\'They were The best of their fields for a reason.\'
They knew what we lacked after not even being with us for long, and they were going to teach us going forward…
\'We should thank the headmaster for this one.\'
He certainly did more than what we had expected from him.
