”Professor?!” exclaimed some of the apprentices.
Step by step, Lucien walked to the stage, under the gaze of several hundreds of people.
The necromancers and apprentices who did not want to join the Hand of Paleness were encouraged, but soon they started to feel concerned, since they did not know if Professor was powerful enough to face this crazy man, even though his name was on the Cleansing List.
”Is Mr. Professor gonna be okay?” Fatty asked one of his companions carefully in a low voice, with his teeth clattering.
”Of course…” answered the stout apprentice, Bread. He was trying to comfort Fatty and also himself, ”You think anyone can be on the church’s list?”
”How do you know Mr. Felipe is not on the list as well?” interjected Wine. Both Wine and Garrupa were still feeling very unsure.
Interesting enough, when Lucien was walking toward the stage, his mind was divided in two opposite thoughts: part of him felt extremely nervous and afraid, however, the other part of him somehow felt the whole thing a bit funny, out of the great pressure.
Felipe’s eyes were freezing cold, ”Mr. Professor, what do you want to say? I already did what I didn’t want to do, and it’s impossible for me to back away. If you can’t give me a reasonable explanation, I think either you or me will die on this stage.”
The corner of Lucien’s lips twitched a bit. He really wanted to suggest Felipe to sit down and have a cup of tea first to calm down a little bit before their conversation.
Despite all these thoughts, Lucien answered calmly, ”I’m from the Will of Elements, and I don’t really mind the fact that the Hand of Paleness is trying to grow by recruiting more people.” The last thing Lucien wanted to do was piss off Felipe right away.
Felipe was confused, ”What do you mean? Why are you here, then?”
The rest of the necromancers and apprentices were surprised to know that Professor also belonged to an organization from the congress.
”I’m here because I don’t like your way of recruiting people.” Then Lucien changed his tone, ”No one should be forced to join anything, and correspondingly, no one should blame anyone else for the following consequence.”
”Very good.” Felipe applauded, ”But, what if forcing people is exactly my style?”
Felipe was pushing Professor to his limit, and he was ready for a bitter fight.
At this time, Lucien switched the topic without directly answering Felipe’s question, ”Also, I don’t agree with you on what you just commented on the School of Element. I’d like to further discuss it with you.”
”What comment?” Felipe felt even more confused now.
What did Professor want to do?
