Chapter 115 - The Voice's Threat
'Since he can't become Helm, I need to focus on obtaining more benefits for Evin…' Leanne decided.
"In that case, I want to discuss the rewards that Evin were due after defeating the Type 12. He was supposed to meet the Type 13 after that to receive its guidance on whatever problem he needs help on.
"
Meeting the remnant consciousness of Heim Morton was nothing to scoff at. The man was infamous for his breadth of knowledge and incredible way of solving problems. It was even said that king Seth himself occasionally visited it to receive advice.
"Ah, about that… You don't have to worry too much. The kingdom is extremely interested in Evin's future prospects. Even I'm wanting to learn how he's able to shoot metal and stone projectiles with such strong and penetrative force yet so little mana. He definitely needs to be rewarded for his efforts and the kingdom agreed to have Lord Armut Mungiar give a visit to the boy. And of course, Evin would still be able to receive help from the kingdom, if he has anything he wishes to learn about…
"
"I've also heard that some High Mages are showing interest in tutoring him privately?
" Kent asked.
The rewards were much greater than what Leanne expected. It wasn't a simple matter to have one's lost limbs replaced by a prosthetic in the kingdom. It was especially hard to have one created by the Master Prosthetist himself. Most of it depended on luck, as Lord Mungiar mostly chose his own clients, and most of them exclusively from military background. Nobles and foreigners had to pay tens of thousands of gold to convince the man to do anything for them.
Not only that, to learn under the wings of a High Mage was also something unimaginable to 1st year Academy students. Even normal mages struggled to obtain such privileges. Leanne guessed that the only reason Evin was receiving such attention was because of his highly unique spells. She wouldn't be surprised if some of these High Mages wanted to learn some things from Evin in return.
"Yes, but of course, the kingdom would still require Evin to graduate from the Academy properly. I'm hoping Chairman Kent will do his best to educate the future of the kingdom.
"
"Yes, of course.
"
'Of course, Kent won't so easily let go of the key part in his ridiculous plan,' Leanne sighed. 'Well, Evin knows his true colors and he's smart enough to take care of himself, so I don't have to worry about Kent too much.'
"Now that we've settled the problem of Helm and Evin, the main topic of our talk concludes here,
" Gehenne said and had the group disperse.
