With this thought, Angela said, “Ron, if you’re willing to join our Sky Blue Magic Academy, I can take you in as my disciple.”
“Disciple?”
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, especially the four people standing behind Angela. Howen, Klein, and Fiona all revealed expressions of envy and jealousy. Although they were talented, they were only students. However, the status of a disciple was different from that of an ordinary student. Those who could be taken in as disciples were all extraordinary existences. However, with Ron’s talent, he could indeed be taken in as a disciple. And if he was taken in as her disciple, he would be able to inherit the legacy of his teacher. His teacher would also do her utmost to nurture him, and even expend her own resources to increase the strength of her disciple. However, ordinary students would not receive such treatment. At most, they would be given some Magic Scrolls to protect themselves when they were out for their training. However, if he were a disciple, when the disciple was out for training, his teacher would even personally lead the team to protect him. When Howen and the others were out for their training, they were on their own. Had there been a disciple of Angela among them, then she would most probably have led the team personally, in which case, they would not have been pursued by the assassins from the Hell Fire Organization and suffered so much.
In fact, Angela had also seen how talented Ron was, which was why she had the idea of taking him in as a disciple. If Ron were to really enter the Sky Blue Magic Academy, even if she did not take him in as a disciple, the other teachers and even the dean would fight to take him in as a disciple, and all kinds of resources would be thrown at him.
Moreover, if Ron agreed, then Howen and the other ordinary students would have to address Ron as Senior when they saw him in the future. Thinking of the many benefits, Howen and the others looked at Ron enviously. Only Serena was happy for Ron. She even clenched her small fists and kept saying silently to Ron, “Agree to it, agree to it. Quick, agree.”
However, Ron took a look at Angela, who was smiling at him, and Serena, who looked excited. His eyes flickered and he looked in the direction of the ancestral hall. Then, Ron said, “Thank you for thinking so highly of me, Teacher Angela. But I’m sorry, I do not wish to leave the family yet.”
Angela’s smile froze on her face. Howen and the rest were also shocked. They looked at each other in disbelief. Was there something wrong with Ron’s brain? Teacher Angela had wanted to take him in as a disciple, and he had actually rejected it? This was a chance to soar to the heavens in a single leap. They could not even obtain it if they wanted to, but now, Teacher Angela had personally delivered this opportunity to the other party, and he had actually rejected it? This was too unbelievable.
Only the head of the family, Norton, knew why Ron had rejected the other party’s invitation. After hearing Ron’s reply, he immediately smiled in comfort. On the other side, Romo, who was in the ancestral hall, had also been paying attention to what was happening here. Before Ron gave his answer, Romo was also a little nervous. After all, currently, Ron was the only pillar of the Nicholas family clan. Now, Romo was also doing his best to nurture him. If he were to leave the family and go to the Sky Blue Magic Academy, it would be a great loss to the family.
Upon hearing Ron’s reply, Romo heaved a sigh of relief and said happily, “Not bad, you’re indeed a descendant whom I value.”
After Ron had rejected the other party’s invitation, he immediately felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart. Instantly, his thoughts became clear and there were no longer any obstacles in his heart. Joining the Sky Blue Magic Academy was indeed a bright path for him. Not only would he have a good future, he would also be able to give his family a huge backer. This had also been his dream previously, but it was different now. He had the personal guidance of his Old Ancestor, and it was not inferior at all to joining the Sky Blue Magic Academy; it might even surpass that. Looking at his current strength, one would know. Two years ago, Howen had already become a Great Mage. At that time, he was mocked by the other party. But now, with the guidance and help from his Old Ancestor, his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, and he had already far surpassed the other party.
If he did not join the Sky Blue Magic Academy, he would still have a very bright future ahead of him. His family clan would also be able to rise up, and it would be even faster! Moreover, if he were to join the Sky Blue Magic Academy, although he would have another backer, there would definitely be restrictions. He might even have to fight to the death for the Sky Blue Magic Academy. Moreover, if he were to join the Sky Blue Magic Academy, they would automatically become the enemy of the Hell Fire Organization. Although he was not afraid, what if his family were to suffer the revenge of the Hell Fire Organization after he had left his family? Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, he chose to refuse.
After his thoughts had been cleared, his Wave Meditation Technique actually started to work automatically. This made his strength increase rapidly. Previously, he had just entered the realm of a level-9 Great Mage and had not stabilized his realm completely. Now that his thoughts were cleared, in just an instant, he had completely stabilized his realm of a level-9 Great Mage!
All of this naturally did not escape Angela’s eyes. She saw that at such a moment, just a change in mental state was enough to allow Ron’s strength to advance by another step. Such talent could no longer be described as just a genius. He was simply a monster. If only he could become her disciple, how great would that be? She would definitely devote her heart to teaching and give all her resources to him. When the time came, Ron’s achievements would definitely far surpass hers. He might even be able to break through that level and advance to the Divine Mage realm, which even she had not reached.
Thinking of this, Angela continued, “Are you really not going to think about this anymore? How about this, if you agree to be my disciple, I can promise to give your family three more places to enroll in the academy. What do you think?”
After hearing this, Howen and the others looked at their teacher, Angela, with a strange expression. Why did it feel like Teacher Angela was begging Ron to be her disciple?
Actually, their feelings were not wrong at all. If it were not for her status, Angela would have even begged Ron directly to become her disciple. Such a talented disciple was an existence that could only be chanced upon by luck. If she missed this, she wondered if she could find another in her lifetime.
However, Ron had already made up his mind. He said, “I’m sorry, Teacher Angela. I really don’t want to leave the family now.”
Angela sighed and said, “Sigh, in that case, I won’t force it.. If you change your mind, you can come to the Sky Blue Magic Academy to look for me anytime.”
