Chapter 35: Spell Casters (2/2)
”Does that mean the humiliation I went through was for nothing?!” Fenon trembled in rage, his eyes spitting fire—Jenna had gone to the shop to destroy the formation inside. To distract Kadyn, Fenon caused trouble. So that when Jenna would destroy the formation he won't realise anything amiss, immediately. However, everything went utterly wrong. He made a fool of himself.
When he thought that Kadyn used him like a test subject to prove the effectiveness of the potion, his heart burned in shame and fury and disgust. But he could not even walk with a straight body at the moment, much less fight someone. Sooner or later I will kill him no matter what! He gritted his teeth in hatred. Today's humiliation could only be washed with Kadyn's blood!
”That bomb…” Jenna said after some hesitation. ”Is it really that terrible as everyone claimed?”
Fenon stiffened and his heart pumped faster and his body turned cold in fear. The thoughts of vengeance that had just sprouted, fading. [Throwing Bomb] had become his nightmare—a nightmare that won't leave him anytime soon.
”Don't worry, Boss,” Big One was sitting on another chair at the side of the bed. ”Your talent is even greater than those talents from Upper Town. If it wasn't for that bomb you could easily handle that bastard.
”Furthermore, the Association Leader has shown interest in accepting you as his apprentice. When that happens, it won't be hard to become one of the legendary [Spell Casters]. At that time you could pinch Kadyn to death whenever you want.”
”Yes!” Fenon almost jumped in ecstasy, hearing these words. His eyes shone with a vicious radiance. ”Two months. Two months later I would graduate. At that time the Association Leader would accept me as his apprentice. That would be Kadyn's end, hmph!”
Then he looked at Jenna and said. ”Send someone to buy the potions. I want them.”
Jenna nodded but then said. ”Do… you think that… Kadyn might join a powerful family… or even Magic Association? After all, he is so young and already a potioneer. Everyone would like to gain such an asset.”
Fenon left stunned at her question. But then said. ”Didn't he say he would sell his potions to everyone? That means he has no intention to join anyone. After all, no one would let him do what he intended to do—such as selling potions to peasants”
”That may not be true,” Jenna shook her head. ”The heart of people is unpredictable. Who knows if he was speaking the truth? He might change his mind later and decide to join someone. Who can say that won't happen?”
”Then what should we do?” he asked. Though he was a petty and vicious character. His scheming skills were almost zero. Almost.
”Nothing,” Jenna shook her head.
”What do you mean?” Fenon asked in bewilderment.
”We'll wait. After all in this situation you won't be able to do much, anyway,” Jenna said. ”If he joins any family or organisation you have to wait for the right time to take your revenge. But if he joins no one.... you know what I mean?”
Fenon looked at her cunning eyes and understood what she was trying to say. The possibility of trampling Kadyn under his feet excited him to no end.
