Chapter 179: Determination (1/2)

”Remember, tell everyone that it's just a test.”

”Of course. I will tell my friends that it's just a test.” Theo nodded while thinking, 'I won't tell anything to Nart Eilric though, since he is not my teammate.'

Radvils snorted and waved his hand, opening the door. ”You may go. I won't see you off.”

Theo closed his eyes and calmly rose from his chair, heading to the outside.

As soon as he was outside, Radvils quickly slammed the door with his Magic Power as if he was angry.

Theo took a deep breath and smiled over his small victory, but little did he know, anger might be the last thing that Radvils would think of.

Behind that door, Radvils was actually smiling in excitement, seeing Theo's character. He had been watching Theo this whole time to see whether he had the potential to bring his team to victory.

However, there was indeed one thing that Theo forgot due to his lack of experience in this area. He forgot to add the fact that the missions were impossible to succeed because of the first assignment alone, let alone the other two.

If he added it into their negotiation, Radvils might end up giving him more.

He muttered with a smile, ”But I guess it's enough for his level. He is still rough around the edge, but he has potential. I wanted to give that card to him, albeit I had no good opportunity. I need to thank him for standing up and making my job easier.”

That conversation turned out to be not a simple negotiation. Theo and Radvils were trying to outwit each other, but Theo ended up making the situation a win-win for both of them.

Radvils smiled and said, ”I guess this year's students have the potential to reach the grand stage. There are two other groups that may become their rival in this small competition, but we will see.

Meanwhile, Theo left the building immediately while looking at the skill he just received.

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.

”Ho?!” Theo widened his eyes as he didn't expect such a haul. ”A C Rank Skill? Isn't this Hero Rank Skill?”
