Chapter 40: The Princess and the Personal Physician (1)
“Asella.”
A cold voice rang in Asella’s ears as she walked from the waiting room toward the arena.
The guards and handmaidens took a step back.
Click, clack.
Camilla approached Asella with the sharp sound of her heels echoing through the corridor.
Asella looked at her without responding.
“So now you don’t even bother greeting me. Where did you learn such insolence? Are you just completely giving up on appearances now?”
“It’s time for me to present myself before His Majesty. Would you kindly not get in my way?”
“Hah! The way you talk! Do you think you can impress His Majesty with some magic you practiced without me? My personal disciples already finished their demonstrations! They showed Fourth-Tier magic!”
Reaching the Fourth Tier meant one had already achieved greatness as a mage.
Camilla had indeed proven her competence by taking such individuals as her disciples.
Those who failed to gain entrance into the Mage Tower often sought her out just for the chance to train under her.
