The Genius Mage - Chapter 191
Chapter 191: Becoming a Teacher?
When Audrey arrived at the place Thor had mentioned, she immediately noticed the huge botanical garden.
It mimicked the climate of the nearby forest, so there were all kinds of high-grade herbs in it. It could be said to be the paradise of every alchemist.
Audrey carefully pushed open the glass door and walked in. She immediately saw the gray-haired old man standing by the table.
“Audrey, you’re here.” Thor hurriedly raised his hand to greet his proud student when he saw her.
Only then did Audrey notice that Thor was not the only one here. There were even a bunch of people who looked to be one or two years older than her. All of their faces were filled with arrogance. Clearly, they were from a prestigious family.
Before Audrey could shift her gaze away, she saw a figure that was particularly eye-catching even when standing in the middle of the crowd.
“Audrey, long time no see,” Klein greeted her with a smile. It was this sentence that made everyone shift their gazes to Audrey.
Some of them were envious, jealous, and resentful.
One had to know that Klein was a well-known noble son. He usually treated everyone with indifference. Although he appeared polite on the surface, there were not many people who could get close to him.
It was rare for him to take the initiative to greet someone like this, which surprised everyone.
Therefore, he looked at Audrey with dissatisfaction and inquiry.
Audrey smiled politely and came to Thor’s side. “Senior Thor, may I ask why you called me here today?”
Saul patted the delicate instruments on the table. “Actually, it’s because the class-dividing trial is about to begin?
“These advanced students wanted me to teach them how to make the concealing medicine, but the jury needed my help with some matters, so they called you over.”
It was this sentence that made everyone present dumbfounded.
A girl with a high ponytail was the first to speak. “Senior, this is against the rules. We are here to seek your personal guidance. Why did you bring a new student to replace you? Moreover, this person is only a student from the lower class. How can she be worthy of our status?”
As soon as she said this, some people immediately nodded in agreement.
After all, in their eyes, the class here was very high-classed. The newcomer was already at the bottom of society, not to mention the person in front of them, who was also a member of the lower class.
No matter what, she was not worthy of their status.
“If you don’t have time, we can wait until you have time. There’s no need to pull out such a person to fool us, right?”
“I think so too, senior Thor. Please consider this matter carefully before making a decision.”
Thor’s expression immediately turned ugly. “Do you not trust my choice of candidate?”
The tall ponytail who had spoken at the beginning only averted her gaze, as though she did not intend to continue the conversation. However, she did not seem to agree with that expression.
“Before Audrey came, I had already made it very clear to all of you that Audrey is the most outstanding student I’ve ever had. It can be said that she’s more than enough to teach all of you now,” Thor said, everyone present had their own thoughts.
“In any case, she’ll definitely be able to tell all of you the problems you’re facing now,” Thor snorted coldly, “I advise all of you to steadily improve your foundations. You shouldn’t worry about other things.”
It was precisely these words that made everyone feel uncomfortable.
However, they did not dare to refute him on the surface and could only agree to it.
Audrey listened helplessly as Thor explained some things to her. She suddenly felt that it might not be a good thing for her to come here today.
Watching Thor’s back disappear into the botanical garden, Audrey pressed on the delicate instruments on the table. She suddenly did not know what to do.
After all, the people standing in front of her had much higher status and prestige than her. In addition, they were already very arrogant, so they naturally would not listen to her.
The high ponytail even raised her hand.
“Since senior has already asked you to come over and tell us, I’d like to see what you can tell us.”
Klein raised his eyebrows and looked very excited. He waved the folding fan in his hand and said, “Teacher Audrey, I want to see how to make a bottle of a qualified concealment potion.”
The call of teacher gave Audrey a headache. She even suspected that Klein was deliberately causing trouble.
There were so many people who doubted Audrey’s abilities, but he still had to say such a thing. It was obvious what kind of attitude those people had.
As expected, a cold snort came from somewhere in the crowd.
“How can she make a concealing potion like that? You have to know that that thing isn’t something that anyone can make.”
“That’s right. Even we’ve been learning for so long and it’s a little difficult. How can she make it?”
“Don’t joke around here. You’d better leave quickly. We don’t welcome you here.”
Klein narrowed his eyes as he sized up Audrey, who was standing not far away.
He wanted to see what kind of decision this little girl would make under the doubts of so many people.
“Since none of you believe me, why don’t you just use your strength to speak?” Audrey raised her hand and picked up the herb in front of her.
