Chapter 14: Elliot Awakening! (1/2)

”So, have you decided?” Instructor Nina asked after a moment.

”Sorry, but I will have to refuse,” Elliot replied with a serious look on his face.

He didn't only want to accept the favor of the Magician Association and the Magician Academy, but he also didn't want to use pathetic evolution materials to awaken an ability.

As soon as she heard those words, Nina's eyes widened in surprise as she wasn't expecting him to refuse.

He was being provided free-evolution materials that would help become a lot stronger in a matter of days, yet he refused?

Unbelievable!

”Huh? Are you serious?!” She questioned, unable to make sense of his decision.

”Yes, I want to give up on this chance,” Elliot said without a single moment of hesitation as he looked at her with an adamant expression on his face.

”Can you tell me why?” Nina asked as she looked at him with her pretty eyes, wondering why he wants to give up on such a good opportunity.

”What's the best evolution material the academy can provide me?” Elliot posed a question of his own instead of providing her with an answer

”Uh, you can get materials obtained from monsters at the peak of the magical realm at best,” Nina said, answering his question.

The monsters of the magical realm were the weakest of the bunch, and the evolution material obtained from them could only help awaken a weak-ass ability.

”See, that's why I am refusing your offer. Using such evolution materials would only help me awaken a weak ability. Miss. Nina, I don't want that,” Elliot said, explaining his reason to refuse her offer.

”Don't tell me you're planning to do that?”

”Yes! I'll work hard to slay powerful monsters and obtain special evolution material to awaken a powerful ability.” Elliot said, hope and anticipation brimming in his heart.

Instructor Nina Olsen felt charmed by his words, thinking that he surely was her head-strong childhood friend who protected her from bullies in the past and made her obsessed with him.

”I wish you well,” Nina said, indicating that she hopes he will be successful in defeating and obtaining evolution materials from a powerful monster.

”Thanks,” Elliot replied, feeling that lady luck is now on his side.

”I will inform my immediate superior about your decision. So, please wait for a while before you go,” Instructor Nina said as she motioned him to remain next to her.

”I understand,” Elliot replied, unable to understand that she just wanted to be next to him.

While he stood before the crystal table, wondering how long it is going to take for her to gain the approval of her superior, instructor Nina turned on her communication device and immediately called her immediate superior.

A moment later, once Gerald picked up the call, she told him about Elliot's decision of refusing the evolution material of the magical realm provided by the academy as he didn't want to awaken a weak ability.

”Oh, really?” Gerald, the head of the magician academy and the man on the phone, couldn't believe that a young unawakened magician has refused their help for such a distinct but foolish reason.

Elliot's words were grand, but it was hard to kill a monster above the magical realm.

The monsters above the magical realm were called demonic monsters.

These monsters were in the demonic realm evolutionary stage.

Without money and strength, there's no way for that boy to acquire demonic realm evolution material.

”Yes, sir,” Nina replied.

”Instructor Nina, let him do as he wishes,” Gerald said, a carefree smile creeping on his middle-aged face.

”I understand.” Nine replied, immediately ending the call.
