Chapter 24 (1/2)

After noting the attitude of these colleagues from the Mages’ Association, Andrew felt a little awkward. He was in no mood to chat with these people, partly because he had some regrets. To test his spell, he had burned the valuable Cyclops to worthless ashes.

‘A lot of rare materials have been wasted.’ He sighed in his heart.

When the other mages in the Association saw that Andrew was silent, they naturally did not dare to disturb him. So the group, though victorious, boarded the dirigible back to the city in a rather somber atmosphere.

On the way, Andrew occupied a small room on the airship and began to analyze the specific effects of the red lotus flare that he had released earlier. Meanwhile, the other mages were gathered around the vice president Lanza, discussing another matter with serious expressions.

“Currently, there doesn’t seem to be anything in our Rafax City’s Magic Association that can attract Mr. Smith,” Lanza said with a frown and some distress.

“Currently, all the resources that can be used have already been made available. Whether it’s the magic crystal training room or the library, Mr. Smith can mobilize all the resources in the entire Magic Association, but it’s still not enough!”

He had a slight headache.

“Don’t spread the news that the Cyclops was easily destroyed, or else other cities will come and poach him.”

A young mage suggested and everyone present nodded. However, no one believed that this method was effective. The reason was simple. The mages present did not agree and the news could not be hidden for long.

“How many years has it been since our Rafax city has produced such a person?”

A middle-aged man frowned. The scene of Andrew easily killing the Cyclops made him certain that a small place like Rafax city would not be able to keep this Fellow!

At this moment, Lanza suddenly gritted his teeth, slapped his thigh, and stood up abruptly.

“Alright, everyone, stop talking. Our Rafax City indeed can’t keep Fellow Smith for long. With his strength, he will go to a bigger stage. He might even have a seat in the entire Mage Council of the Moore Republic.”

“We can forget about keeping him here forever. As long as we can leave a good impression on him and remember our friendship, that will be good.”

“I’ve decided to report to the Association Headquarters immediately and use the only Honorary President’s position in Rafax City.”

“What?”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Immediately, a mage who looked quite old tried to stop him.

“Vice president Lanza, you have to think twice.”

As he spoke, his voice became softer and softer.

Lanza nodded calmly.

“The Honorary President will receive the same treatment as the President. Fellow Smith will be allowed to browse through our Association’s private magic book collection. This is the only reward we can give that person.”

All the mages present had different expressions, but no one objected.

…

“Honorary President?”

Andrew had originally planned to return home after returning to the Association. He felt guilty because he had drained the magic crystal training room dry, so after he finished cultivating his magic every day, he would give pointers to others in the Association. But other than that, he couldn’t find any work that needed to be done by him.
