Chapter 125: Return (1/2)

After giving the package to Theo's team, Radvils was chilling in his own workplace. He was looking at the screen his Skylink projected for him while playing with a skill card in his hand.

”Hmm?”

His peace was soon disturbed by a knocking sound as Radvils looked at the door with an annoyed expression. ”Come in. Do you have any problem, Principal Eigen?”

Principal Eigen opened the door and entered the room with a serious expression. ”I just want to confirm something with you. It seems Alea Eilric has been absorbed into another team and become their sixth member, is that—”

Before he finished his words, he somehow found this weird sensation when he looked at Radvils' face. This was the first time he felt it, so he was unfamiliar with it.

”You… Are you happy?”

Radvils narrowed his eyes and shrugged, spinning his chair to the window behind him and staring at the sky. ”Who knows…”

”You are even playing with a skill card.” Eigen glanced at his hand.

”Well, you can say so.” Radvils sighed and didn't want to play word with him anymore.

”It seems you have found the perfect team for the tournament,” said Eigen when he saw Radvils opening a certain team's profile in his Skylink.

”No, I have found someone who can push this team forward. That's all. Whether they can do it or not, it will be up to them.”

”Sounds like you… I think you have someone special since you are holding that kind of card.” Eigen narrowed his eyes when he caught the name of the card and its explanation when Radvils spun it on his hand.

Radvils couldn't help but smirk and said, ”You are right. It made me think hard whether to give this card to him or not.”

There was an excitement in his tone. He got this feeling after observing that last fight. Radvils stopped playing with the card and grabbed it.

In the card, there were two things shown.

Skill: Illusion Manipulation (C)

Effect: Manipulate one's perception to make one get a sense of touch and vision of an illusion along with the ability to manipulate a certain level of reality.

…

While the two had a chat, Theo returned to his room to discover more about his next skill. However, he suddenly felt a presence in his room, making him halt his step to assess his situation.

Before any misunderstanding appeared, an aged female voice resounded from his room, calling his name.

”What are you doing, Theo? You brat, you don't want to see your master?”

Theo's body shuddered as he quickly opened the room and saw his master standing by the window.

”Master…”
