67 Pride Is Useless (2/2)

A face scribbled with pride now appeared in front of Dean as he asked

”What now?”

Dean knew that both now held the information so now he needed to analyze which teacher was much more useful to him.

It reminded him of the time he spent with his first Master, the clown that forgot his memories.

They held something he desperately needed.

First was power, now it was knowledge.

Sighing in displeasure for having such a tough choice to decide, Dean ultimately left it to his first analysis that the man with a blade was far more useful if he was sincerely telling the truth.

The older teacher saw the eyes of Dean that finally made a choice and the slight movement he made towards his partner.

Knowing that he had finally made a choice he couldn't interrupt.

”How about we do this? For a week each, he'll be under the tutelage of one teacher before being swapped out in the next week. Then he can rightfully make a decision.”

Thinking for a moment, the teacher nodded and found this argument to be extremely reasonable as the one who decided their fate is the person himself.

Dean wanted to curse in front of the man but darted a glare that reflected all his emotions but made sure to limit himself.

Noticing the subtle killing intent, the teacher smiled amiably

The decision was already reinforced and Dean could only leave out of the room without any knowledge of the murderer

A piece of rock fell onto his head as he took a careful look in the room.

There was a dent in one of the sides of the walls and a hole on the floor. The roof had dozen of spiderweb like cracks with a few pebbles falling.

Most of the damage was done by him but the one on the roof was probably done by the teachers.

”Teachers, thank you for your hospitality.”

Dean made sure to leave that comment before quickly running out of the room, afraid of the repercussion it may make.

The odd behavior Dean showcased caused the two teachers to become suspicious and also pay attention to their room.

Realizing the damage they had done they started to point the fingers at each other.

”I'm pretty damn sure it was all due to your Martial Will. Last time you nearly suffocated the suspect because of your ignorance.”

”Listen here old man, I know you still don't know how to properly Wind Magic.”

Giving up at the vicious words, the teacher spoke

”fifty fifty split?”

The other teacher sighed in regret as he agreed.

Their paychecks would be receiving a heavy fine.
