50 Not Seeking Strength (2/2)
Once again Desmond didn't know how to answer the strange man in front of him he had only wanted to buy a few things with the sack filled with magic Crystals he had on him. Nervous Desmond answered anyway ”I do not know how I should repay you”.
The strange man stood in place not moving an inch as he considered Desmond's answer ”you don't know then tell me what do you know?”

”I don't know what you mean by that” Desmond answered a little flustered.
After breathing out a big puff of smoke the strange man spoke again ”I want to know what your sure of you must be sure of something? why did you step on the path of a mage if you were not sure of something or hoped for something better? Did you do it for money, power, woman, men, family, friend what is the reason what are you sure of?”.
Understanding what the strange man wanted to know Desmond answered ”I did it for love”
”So for the love of a woman than or your family”
”No, I sought out magic not to gain riches, power, or anything else like being surrounded by a group of beautiful women. I love magic, it was love, at first sight, I love it for what it is a doorway into the depths of someone's imagination and the unknown”
”So it is a selfish desire and agreed for knowledge that leads you to become a mage”
Desmond didn't falter when admitting his dream to learn magic nor will he regret it ” yes, what I pursue is a selfish desire, but it is one I walk with pride”.
The strange man looked at Desmond with a cold stare scrutinizing every detail about him till he spoke ”all right then I will help you with your dream who among us is without sin anyway I know I'm not so I will let you ask one request of me”
Desmond was shocked by what he heard especially Ragnar who had let the conversation go on because he didn't think his friend would mess with someone who was only at a beginner apprentice level of strength. Him offering any kind of help is no good to everyone involved he knew he had to stop what was happening immediately.
