Chapter 124: Skills (1/2)

”Nope!” Alea shrugged. ”You are in charge. In fact, I feel sad for you since you need to keep us in check.”

”No, no. Everyone is cooperating. The one that makes it hard for me is you.” Theo shook his head with a smile. His tone was serious as if he truly felt that way.

”Wait, what?!” Alea grabbed Theo's shoulders in panic. She asked, ”What do you mean? There is still Laust, right?”

”He will be cooperating right now.”

”Wait, no way, I am—” Ellen covered her mouth while saying with a smile. ”Alright, alright. Let's stop here first, okay? I want to ask one thing. Do you think we should share information about the skill the instructor plans to give us?”

”That's up to you. Sooner or later, we will know, so there's no point in hiding it. You can simply say it while training or something, so no pressure.”

”Okay.”

”Then, we should wrap everything up, right? Do you want to celebrate somewhere?” Phyrill asked.

”No, I don't think I will. Just let me rest after this long fight. I'm tired.” Theo shook his head. He indeed felt tired mentally since controlling all these guys was hard.

”Well…” Ellen felt embarrassed and looked at Phyrill and Sihan. ”Let's return and rest then. We can deal with the rest in the chat group.”

Alea also didn't say anything and agreed without hesitation. Theo was indeed the one who worked the most in this match, so he deserved a full rest.

He and the others then left the school as Theo went separate ways and returned to his new apartment. He remembered he needed to pay the rent in another ten days, making him even more frustrated.

However, he decided to not think about it since he planned to grab everything he could and turn them into money in the next stage of training.

When Theo reached his house, he couldn't help but fall to the bed, feeling lifeless. This was a time where he didn't want to do anything or think about anything.

Without realizing it, he began to wander around his dream.

…

8 PM.

Everyone received their own package. When they opened it, all of them were surprised for various reasons.

Alea stared at her skill with a blank look for a few minutes because she didn't understand why the instructor gave this skill to her.

Skill: Enchant Blade (D)

Effect: Enchant your blade with magic power.

”Does he want me to become an Enchanter?” Alea tilted her head. ”Besides, my affinity is Fire. Although I can use this perfectly fine, I won't be as good as Theo, who has no affinity.”

Despite thinking for an hour, she couldn't understand the instructor's plan and thought he just wanted her to have a sharper sword while trying to help her teammate from time to time with this skill.

The same confusion was also present in the Hilbert Family.

Phyrill actually had the vision of which direction he was going. In this match, he lacked a powerful attack that could be used to deliver a killing blow to an enemy in an instant without relying on others. Yet, the skill he got was his best ability, his movement.
