83 Yumi (2/2)

In short, the security defenses that Wallace paid for his house seems to be a bit of waste as someone was already protecting him in the background. Though it would still be useful if some uninformed people tried to mess with him.

Of course, when Wallace submitted the structure, he expected that he'll be noticed by the government but not this much. Apparently, he only wanted enough attention to let him join the TMAC before but looking at it now, this made him a celebrity in higher ups and was noted as 'not to be messed with' people.

”NMTI? I only knew a few people there. You must have heard about me from Mr. Bryson or others?”

Wallace asked. He then mentioned the magic engineer who took care of his Float Drive System.

”Nope.” Yumi answered while shaking her head. She was also driving the car and glancing at Wallace from time to time. She chuckled before continuing.

”Try to guess more!”

Wallace could only try again as he didn't mind prolonging the conversation since there was still about half an hour before arriving to the academy.

”If not, then the headmaster probably told you about me? Ah! No, since you're from NMTI, you probably saw me visit there a couple of times. But since I caught your attention, you should have a high position there and learned my achievements. Is that right?”

Wallace said to Yumi.

”Spot on! Yes, I'm handling your Magic Jammer Canceller up until today. I studied that structure for so long and had learned it's everything. All its strengths and weaknesses was revealed to me. I even made plans for further improvement but was a bit stuck since any other improvement we try would destroy the jax stone.”

Yumi explained energetically at the first part but the latter part had a sound of exasperation. She seems to have also experienced a lot of failures during her research. Ultimately, it was alright to study his magic structure since they paid for the copyrights and made agreements with Wallace himself. This will also provide him some earnings.

”Hehe. Since I'm making no progress, my cousin told me to join you in Montego just in case I'll get some inspiration.”

This cleared a lot of Wallace question. But it brought him another question in his mind. Cousin? Wallace wasn't sure but Percival should be in his forties or maybe reaching forties. But this cousin of his seems to be around 22 years old. It made him realize something.

Was she also a prodigy like Clarence, a Battle Mage at early twenties? That was impressive. But was his eyes deceiving him this time? Was that really her age? Too bad that Wallace's Divine Sense couldn't determine his target's age. And it was also for his safety not to ask further.

The two chatted more as Wallace learned about their planned schedule. Once they arrived in the academy, they will be meeting with the headmaster and will assign the two security personnel for them.  Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

”We will be travelling for few hours in a bus. Then we'll meet the other participants at the airport.”

”I see.” Wallace nodded at this and remembered the faces of certain individuals who made a strong impression on him in TMAC.

'Those third years had a chance to dip in that Revitalization Mana Spring. Let's see the  improvement they've made.'
