“What kind of bullshit class are you taking? How can it be more important than building equipment? Which school are you from? I’ll help you apply for a leave now!”

Seeing how enthusiastic Tegpus was, Fike came to a decision after weighing his pros and cons.

​ 

“Spell School! It’s just that tonight is my first class.”

“What kind of bullshit class is scheduled for the night? Is the Dean of your Spell School crazy?”

Seeing that Tegpus was getting heated, Fike quickly explained.

“Actually, it’s like this. I’m dual training in both long-range spells and healing spells under the Spell School, so I’m going to have to attend the healing spells class tonight.”

Hearing Fike’s explanation, Tegpus let out a booming laugh.

“So, a student from Cisco’s and Chambers’ faculties. Fine, let’s go look for Chambers now. Would he dare not to give me face?”

Tegpus said to himself as he forcefully dragged Fike along.

On the fourth floor of the Spell School, they were arriving at the Healing Magic Department.

A hoarse, booming voice rang through the entire corridor.

“Chambers! Chambers! Where are you? Why is this office so hard to find?”

Hearing someone so arrogantly calling the dean’s name, all the teachers and students in the classrooms of the floor peeked their heads out to watch out of curiosity.

They saw a tall white-haired old man and a silver-haired boy, and began to discuss animatedly.

“What’s wrong with this grandfather and grandson duo? Why did they come here to the Healing Magic Department, behaving so atrociously?”

“Look at that weird old man. He’s really strange. He’s not even wearing a single piece of clothing… It’s immoral!”

“That silver-haired boy is really something. He’s not even bothered about his grandfather causing so much trouble.”

Listening to the discussions of the teachers and students, Fike could only wear an awkward expression.

He had a bitter feeling, unable to explain this misunderstanding.

Finally, a familiar figure strode out of a room.

“Who’s so rude?”

The person who had emerged was none other than Chambers, who walked over slowly.

“Your grandfather. Chambers, have you forgotten me after not seeing me for only a few days?”

Chambers’ expression immediately changed when he saw that the person causing the commotion was Tegpus.

“Oh my, oh my, it’s you! Master Tegpus, have you come to agree to forge that equipment for me?”

Hearing Chambers’ flattering tone, as if he was trying to be cute, Fike almost vomited.

‘I didn’t expect that the Dean of the Healing Magic Department, Chambers, would be such a person.’

“Agree my ass! Chambers, this kid is going out to train with me tonight. I’m helping him apply for a leave.”

Only then did Chambers notice Fike, who had been out of view, blocked by Tegpus.

Unexpectedly, his face immediately fell.

“No! Other things can be discussed, but you absolutely can’t take him away. Do you know how important the first class is?

“I’ve already made a concession to the Dean and that damned Cisco so that Fike can stay in our Healing Magic Department.

“Why are you going against me now? Are you guys ganging up on me?!”

Seeing that Chambers had adopted a sour attitude, Tegpus made an offer.

“I’ll consider your request for the equipment you wanted. I’ll only take him away for one night!”

“No!”

Chambers refused resolutely.

“How about this? I’ll promise to make you that equipment. Now it’s okay, right?”

Chambers was silent for a moment. He seemed to be wavering, but still held firm in the end.

“Do you know how important the first class is?”

Before Chambers could finish, Tegpus offered again.

“I will hand you the equipment within the month.”

Chambers immediately took out a pen and paper from his pocket, saying to Tegpus with a coy smirk, “Ha! You’ve said it yourself, you can’t go back on your words now! Just in case!”

Tegpus looked at him speechlessly.

Then, he turned around slowly and said to Fike, “Why don’t I go by myself? You can stay here for your lesson tonight.”

He shot Fike a look.

Fike quickly understood what it meant.

So, he followed, “Alright then. It seems that I’m destined not to accompany the master to the trial tonight. Sigh!

“What a great opportunity… What a pity. I’ve missed it just like that!”

Fike glanced at Chambers from the corner of his eyes.

The man’s expression was uncomfortable, as if he had just finished a roller coaster ride.

Seeing that Chambers was wavering, Tegpus continued.

“Since that’s the case, I’ll be leaving now. Fike, take care of yourself. What a great opportunity it was… It’s a pity that you met such an ignorant Dean. Sigh, forget it!”

The blacksmith turned around and pretended to leave.

At this moment, Chambers’ face had turned green. He could not accept such an outcome.

A great opportunity had been placed in front of him, but he had not cherished it.

Looking at Tegpus’ disappearing figure, he finally burst.

“Master! Tegpus, my master, you can have him!”

Hearing what Chambers said, Tegpus immediately turned around.

“You said it yourself! I didn’t force you, it’s a deal!”

After saying that, Tegpus started to drag Fike away.

Chambers called out again.

“Master, what about that equipment…”

Seeing that Chambers was behaving subserviently again, Tegpus didn’t continue to make things difficult for him.

He responded, “Didn’t I say? I’ll consider it! Fike, let’s go!”

Chambers watched as the pair walked further away, countless regrets welling up in his heart.

‘Why was I foolish enough to argue with him? What a good opportunity it had been, but now it’s been wasted…

‘Now I can only pray that Tegpus will keep his promise! Sigh…’

Walking out of the Spell School, both Tegpus and Fike let out a burst of evil laughter at the same time.

“Master, you’re really something! You can actually keep the Head of Department, Chambers, on such a tight leash, you’re really amazing!”

Fike said while laughing.

Meanwhile, Tegpus also said to Fike, “Your acting skills are not bad either, especially that ‘What a good opportunity, what a pity I missed it’ line! Simply fantastic!”

The two laughed, finally having solved the problem.

“Master,” Fike asked seriously, “is there anything special about the Romon Auction?”

Tegpus replied, “The Romon Auction is simply amazing. No matter what you’re looking for, you’ll find it there!

“There are things that the law allows to be sold, and others that are… not so legal.

“As long as you can afford it, you could even take home the princess of some poor kingdom!”
