Chapter 50 - 50: DIE!!!
"If that's the case, the boy is going to have a tough future ahead. What a shame..." Ngozi murmured softly, with a hint of regret, but then the director said something that surprised everyone.
"I wouldn't be so sure of that. While it's true that he's using more mana, he's following a path similar to that of a certain Master that everyone knows, and let me tell you, she started using at least twice as much mana as the boy when she began as a mage."
Upon hearing the director's words, everyone present couldn't help but look at him in surprise. After all, they knew of that woman and how powerful she was, to the point that she could face a couple of them at the same time and come out unscathed. This led a man with short black hair to ask, filled with curiosity.
"Is it possible that the boy could surpass that woman, Director?"
At the question, the director nodded seriously as he looked at the young man on the holographic screen, who moved with incredible grace and skill. It was hard to believe that he was being raised by two mages and not a knight.
"It's a possibility. After all, he has a better starting point than she did, and someone has already walked that path, which is an advantage she didn't have at the time. Moreover, his incredible talent is evident, which is undoubtedly even more terrifying than Sigrún's." The director turned his gaze towards Adrian and continued in a more serious tone. "Adrian, arrange a meeting with that woman. It's time to bring her to our side."
Upon hearing the director's order, the Masters present couldn't help but glance at each other in disbelief. Bringing that woman into the order would not be easy—not only because of the difficulty of convincing her, but it would also stir up waves across the galaxy, which led Ngozi to comment, full of doubt.
"Director, is it really necessary? While it's true that his power level is impressive for his age, even surpassing Sigrún at that age, his achievements are still not at the level of what Sigrún accomplished in her time. The fact that he does not have an elemental affinity limits him greatly. Besides, the cost of bringing that woman will undoubtedly be difficult to pay."
"Your doubts are understandable, Ngozi, but there's more you don't know. The boy arrived here as an Advanced-Apprentice at just 15 years old and had already mastered communion with the Myst, all without even knowing what a spell was. He came from an underdeveloped planet and reached that level on his own, on a deserted island, without a single resource or proper tutor."
With a solemn expression, Adrian responded in place of the director, revealing shocking information that caused everyone present to gasp in surprise, inevitably leading them to look at the star-haired boy in the hologram in a new light.
"Damn monster..."
