Chapter 379 Left Without a Choice
Egregious Mercantile Ethics headquarters, Mister Mir's office
”Hoould this event work, exactly?” Asked E with the old man Golden Cauldron, his son Silver Alche on the other side of a wide desk On the other side of this desk, Mister Mir was sitting on his oddly large chair with a dignified and proud expression
His behaviour towards the Eance, but an act After all, he was one of the lomerate, and by norm, he would not act politely towards anyone of their status If status was not enough, the fact that he was a high iive his behaviour credibility
Emelnie and the rest had expected this behaviour, so they paid noelse
”We are unsure This is a first in the territory of the universal governh time to prepare, and select our share of candidates You lead a small company with an affiliated small scale acade of this honor?” responded Mister Mir with indifference
The Silver Alcheive an answer to this question, but he was interrupted by the old man Golden Cauldron, who said, ”We don't We simply believe our students have the same chance as any other”
This was the first time the old man Golden Cauldron had ever spoken publicly He idely known as the only individual to have a grasp to the rewinding concept of time, and secretly, was kept under everyone's eyes
The words the old man Golden Cauldron had spoken were just what Mister Mir was hoping for, after all, he had been given the job to make it hard for them to obtain some slots for the event, but ultimately accept their request to participate
”The nued for their children to be allowed to participate in this event, can't be contained in this room How do you claim that to be a valid reason?” Asked Master Mir confidently What happened next, however, turned the fat man's state of mind from a calm and confident one, into one of pure anxiousness
The already nearly closed eyes of the oldthe wrinkles on his face He then stood up, and after a faint bow, he said, ”Apologies, we aihtly confused, Master Kye, the Silver Alchemist, and Emelnie stood up, bowed politely, and followed the example of the old man They then turned towards the entrance, and followed him out
Mister Mir appeared cale drops of cold sere forroup excuse themselves, and walk out of his office
A few steps down the corridor, Eht as she was about to say so, the old man beat her to it, and said, ”Wait for it”
Almost as if on schedule, Mister Mir walked out of his office, and said, ”Hold on a htly more polite tone than before, he said, ”I like the initiative, and since your acade care of a couple of our kids, I'll keep Hiel academy into consideration”
”That is more than we could have hoped for, Mister Mir” Responded E one more time with politeness After that, the four of theious Mercantile Ethics conglo fro, when suddenly, the leader of the conglomerate appeared next to him ”You have almost lost them” He said with a matter-of-fact tone
”Almost is the key word here, Sir” Responded Miser Mir with a smile that could not completely hide his worry ”Hoe handle theo of the matter, as in the end Mister Mir had done a decent job He then said, ”We will see in the first test if those students can be so powerful when in the absence of their teachers If they are, find a way to separate theate his possessions”
”It will be done” Responded Mister Mir as he turned to look back at the s their own conversation who started the very lomerate's headquarters
-----
”For a ht we had lost it” said the Silver Alcheh time to think about it, and now that they had a real chance to enter this contest, he was reasonably excited for his students to have the chance to shi+ne
The rest of the group were, on the other hand, re?” Asked the Silver Alchemist with confusion He had seen his father in that state of mind many ti was going well, so he couldn't help but ask
The old man Golden Cauldron did not respond to his son, and instead turned to look at Eet closer to the two kids, and let us knohenever theyabout the powers of the senior students, the founder of the acade that is secretive for us” His tone was extremely stern
Emelnie and the Silver Alchemist were confused by the words of the old man, but it became all clear after what Master Kye said next
”I will ask the other students if the two everlike that” Said Master Kye, clearly on the sa
While the old man Golden Cauldron would have preferred not to participate in this event, the opinion of the group was against his, so he could do nothing but go along However, afterfor him to become suspicious They were truly too low profile for a lorant audience to them, so hoas it possible that they were allowed to h level individual like Mister Mir in a day's notice?
