Chapter 202: Observation (1/2)

After that ceremony, Theo and the others returned from the stage.

”Ah, I'm pissed. How could they even say something like that without even seeing his power?” Alea grumbled with a distorted face. Her heart was beating rapidly as her anger took over.

Ellen didn't say anything but still looked at Theo with a worried expression. She asked, ”Theo, are you sure about this?”

”Of course. There's nothing wrong with them underestimating me.” Theo shrugged nonchalantly as if the mockeries earlier didn't affect him.

Aisha, on the contrary, smiled at Theo, praising his mental forbearance. She didn't even know if she could stay calm like Theo when the others mocked her like that.

Principal Eigen came to him and patted his shoulders. ”No matter what, I will support you. If you need anything, just talk to me.”

Theo smiled politely. ”Thank you.”

”Anyway, I—”

*Bang*

Before he finished, a loud bang resounded in their ears as Radvils slammed the door open and walked inside. He scanned the room and looked at Theo and the others. ”You six don't have much time left.”

”…” Alea and the others turned around, surprised to see Radvils coming to them in this ceremony.

”As you all know, you're going to fly to Italy in three weeks. And within those three weeks, I will be personally overseeing your training.” Radvils then turned to the principal and continued, ”I hope the school will allow them to leave the school for three weeks to focus on their preparation.”

”Of course.” Principal Eigen nodded with a serious expression. ”As much as I hate to say this, these six are extraordinary. All the knowledge can be studied later, but this competition comes only once in their lifetime. That's why I will grant them a special leave for this.”

”Good.” Radvils nodded and said, ”Before that, I would like to congratulate the second and third winners. Although you failed, both teams had done exceptionally well compared to the fourth or fifth places. That's why you can take pride in your achievement.”

”When can we redeem the reward?” Theo suddenly raised his hand and asked a question. His tone and expression were calm, yet, the question made him look like a greedy person.

It took Radvils a moment to answer his question. ”The reward from school, you need to ask the principal about it. As for the government, you can see the skill catalogs and inform me what skill you want. Of course, I need to see whether you're capable of mastering it within three weeks. I still have the right to reject your application.”

Hearing his name called, the principal added, ”The same as him. You can come to me later about the skills…”

”Then…” Theo walked to him and said, ”I want these two.”
