The Primordial Tamer

Chapter 20 Champion And Academies' Offers

?After the intense battle, Orion was crowned as the champion of the Beastmaster tournament. He stood on the podium, wearing a gold medal around his neck and holding a large trophy in his hands. The crowd cheered as he raised the trophy in triumph.

The tournament officials congratulated Orion on his victory, commending him for his skill and strategy in the arena. They also offered him a reward for his success, which was a choice between a rare magical gem or a valuable resource.

Orion considered his options carefully. He knew that the magical gem could be sold for a high price on the market, but he was also aware of the importance of resources in his line of work. After a moment of contemplation, he chose the resource, knowing that it would be more beneficial in the long run.

As he received the resource, the tournament officials explained that it was a rare mineral called Dragonstone, which had incredible properties. It could be used to enhance the power of dragon beasts. He knew that this would be good for the future.

One of the representatives approached Orion, introducing herself as Professor Amelia from the Skywing Academy. "Congratulations on your victory," she said, extending her hand. "Your beast is truly impressive."

Orion shook her hand, thanking her for the kind words. "What brings you here?" he asked.

"I couldn't help but notice the incredible potential your beast has for aerial combat," Professor Amelia said. "Our academy specializes in flying beasts, and we would be honored to have you join us. You and your beast could truly soar to new heights with us."

Orion was intrigued, but he couldn't help but feel torn. He had already been approached by representatives from several other academies, and he wasn't sure which one to choose.

"Thank you for the offer," he said. "But I need some time to think about it. I've already been approached by representatives from other academies, and I don't want to make a hasty decision."

Professor Amelia nodded understandingly. "Of course. Take all the time you need. Just know that if you do choose us, you won't regret it."

As Orion was speaking to the representatives from Skywing Academy, he noticed another group of people approaching him. These representatives were from Slade Academy, and he recognized them as the same academy that had trained Jaxon.

"Congratulations on your victory," the Slade Academy representative said, extending his hand towards Orion. "I couldn't help but notice your beast's impressive combat abilities. It's clear that you have a natural talent for training and battling beasts."

Orion thanked the representative for his kind words, but he couldn't help but feel a twinge of discomfort at the mention of Jaxon. He knew that Jaxon had trained at Slade Academy, and he couldn't help but wonder if the representative was trying to sway him towards their academy in an attempt to get revenge.

The Slade Academy representative noticed Orion's hesitation and quickly reassured him. "I know that you and Jaxon have a bit of a history, but I want you to know that we have no ill will towards you or your beast. We simply recognize talent when we see it, and we would be honored to have you join our academy."

Orion listened carefully to the representative's words, considering his offer. He knew that Slade Academy was known for their expertise in training stealth beasts, and he couldn't help but be intrigued by the possibility of learning from them.

However, he also knew that he had other options, and he didn't want to make a decision without carefully weighing all of his choices.

"Thank you for your offer," Orion said, smiling politely. "I will definitely consider it."

The Slade Academy representative nodded, understanding Orion's need to take his time. "Of course. Take all the time you need to make your decision. We will be waiting for your answer."

After a while, Orion was approached by the representatives from Vortex Academy, who specialized in water and wind-based beasts. However, Orion had no such beasts in his possession, which made the representatives a bit hesitant.

"We understand that you do not have any water or wind-based beasts, but we believe that you have great potential to train and master these types of beasts," said the representative from Vortex Academy.

Orion appreciated the offer and was impressed by their confidence in him. He knew that training a new type of beast would be a great challenge, but he was always up for a challenge.

"I appreciate the offer, and I will definitely consider it," Orion replied, nodding to the representative.

He was still a bit unsure of which academy to choose, but he knew that he would make the right decision when the time came.

As Orion was talking to the representatives from Vortex Academy, another group approached him. This time, they were from Crystal Academy, an academy that specialized in Ice based beasts.

"Congratulations on your victory, Orion," said the representative from Crystal Academy, extending their hand in congratulations.

"Thank you," replied Orion, shaking their hand.

"We were very impressed with your battle strategy. You showed excellent control over your Beast," said the representative.

"Thank you. I appreciate the compliment," said Orion.

"We at Crystal Academy specialize in Ice based beasts. We would be honored to have you join us and share your expertise in battle strategy with our students," said the representative.

Orion hesitated. He didn't have any Ice based beasts, and he wasn't sure if he was ready to commit to another academy. But he was also intrigued by the idea of learning more about Ice based beasts and honing his skills in battle strategy.

"I appreciate the offer, but I don't have any Ice based beasts," said Orion.

"That's not a problem," said the representative. "We can provide you with access to our resources and expertise in training Ice based beasts. And we believe that your skills in battle strategy could be a valuable asset to our academy."

Orion thought for a moment. He had a lot to consider, with offers coming in from different academies. He didn't want to make a hasty decision and regretted it later.

"Thank you for the offer. I will definitely consider it," said Orion.

The representative nodded understandingly. "Of course. Take your time and make the decision that's best for you. We will be waiting for your answer."

Then suddenly, the representative from Thunder Academy stepped forward to introduce himself to Orion. "Congratulations on your victory, Orion. My name is Kaden, and I am here to offer you a place at Thunder Academy. We specialize in training Thunder-based beasts, and I believe that with your skills and potential, you would make an excellent addition to our academy."

Orion listened intently, but he knew that he did not have any Thunder-based beasts in his current roster. "Thank you for the offer, Kaden, but I don't have any Thunder-based beasts at the moment," Orion replied politely.

Kaden nodded understandingly. "I see. However, we offer a wide range of resources and training facilities that could help you expand your roster and learn more about Thunder-based beasts. And who knows, you may even discover a hidden potential in yourself and your beasts."

Orion considered Kaden's words carefully. He knew that expanding his roster and learning about different types of beasts would be beneficial for his growth as a beast master. However, he also did not want to spread himself too thin and lose focus on his current beasts.

"I appreciate your offer, Kaden, and I will definitely keep Thunder Academy in mind. But for now, I need to think more about what would be best for my current beasts and my growth as a beast master," Orion said.

Kaden nodded respectfully. "Of course, Orion. I understand that this is a big decision. If you ever change your mind, don't hesitate to contact us. We would be more than happy to have you at Thunder Academy."

As the representatives from the 5 academies were looking at each other, a tense silence fell over the group. However, it didn't last long as one of them spoke up.

"Why would Orion even consider your academy?" The representative from Thunder Academy said, sneering at the others. "We specialize in Thunder-based beasts, something he doesn't even have in his collection."

The representative from Vortex Academy scoffed. "Please, Thunder beasts are so outdated. We have water and wind-based beasts that could easily outmatch your Thunder beasts."

The representative from Crystal Academy chimed in, "And what about Ice-based beasts? They are the strongest in terms of defense and offense. Orion should come to us."

The representative from Slade Academy interjected, "But let's not forget that we are the academy that nurtured Jaxon. We specialize in stealth-based beasts and training our warriors to fight in the shadows."

The representative from Skywing Academy, who had been quiet until now, spoke up. "While you all argue about which beast is the strongest, let's not forget the importance of aerial combat. We specialize in flying beasts, something that could give Orion a great advantage in battle."

As the representatives continued to mock and argue with each other, Orion found himself in a bit of a dilemma. Each academy had its strengths and advantages, but he had to choose only one.

But suddenly, A man laughed and directly infiltrated their conversation and suddenly, when the representatives looked at the man, they were surprised to see him here.
