Chapter 1159. Tight on Time (4)
“Everyone has an aptitude for something,” said Kang Jin-Ho, a wry smile on his face.
Anything was possible with enough hard work, but one must not forget that the direction of the hard work was crucial.
Kang Jin-Ho wasn’t trying to look down on Lee Hyeon-Su, but... Anyone with eyes could tell that Lee Hyeon-Su had no talent in martial arts!
“Wiggins, how talented is Lee Hyeon-Su in magic?”
Wiggins grimly explained the situation. “Mister Lee got his start very late in life, my lord. And he's become too ingrained in the habits and customs of Eastern martial arts. I'd say he's saddled with one of the absolute worst handicaps.”
“I see. So? What is he like?”
“In short, he's a genius, my lord,” said Wiggins firmly. “It is incredibly unfortunate that he had to start learning magic so late in life. Thankfully, magic is more like a field of study rather than a physical activity like martial arts. Since one's age isn't the biggest hurdle in magic, the possibilities are there for Mister Lee. As long as he diligently polishes himself, I'm sure he will become an amazing mage.”
“I see. But the problem is...”
“The man himself isn’t interested.”
Wiggins and Kang Jin-Ho groaned again in perfect sync.
What a lamentable turn of events this was.
You couldn't make a horse drink water if it didn't want to. Despite knowing that, Wiggins and Kang Jin-Ho couldn't hide their disappointment at how things turned out.
