Fulilian: Becomes a disciple of Celia at the beginning

Page 82

Looking into the distance, I saw that several [Defense Units] appeared out of thin air in the little boy's hands, which were the parts that had been stripped away from his own defense magic.

Gut tried to control these [defense units], but found helplessly that all he could do was perceive them, and he could no longer control the magic power that belonged to him.

"Is this how it feels [Sealing Technique]?"

"Yes."

Celia confirmed her disciple's judgment, looked at the little boy walking towards her with interest, and continued to explain.

"This kind of [Sealing Technique] school is probably the [Kam Clan] active in the southern countries."

"This family has been sealing demons for generations, so their inherited [Sealing Technique] is among the best on the entire continent."

"You lack experience fighting this kind of magician, so it's normal for you to suffer some losses."

"That's it."

Listening to the teacher's explanation and the comfort in his words, Gut's boredom was relieved a lot.

"Um. Lady Celia."

"Excuse me, have I passed your assessment?"

The little boy seemed a little unconfident, and timidly asked Celie for confirmation again. When his eyes accidentally touched Gut, he subconsciously retreated.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to attack you. What happened just now was because of the [Protective Array] on me."

"It's okay. My use of magic to directly spy on you is somewhat offensive in itself."

Faced with the little boy's sudden apology, Gut waved his hand to indicate that he didn't mind.

But Celie, who was leaning on the chair, frowned slightly at this moment.

This child's character is a little too cowardly, even worse than Lyon's.

This is not the type of disciple she likes. What Celie wants more is the kind with ambition.

"Tell me, what is your favorite magic?"

Looking at the boy below, Celie suddenly asked, wanting to understand his thoughts through this question.

"Ah? Your question is so difficult for me to answer."

The little boy scratched his hair and said with a distressed look on his face.

Seeing this, the disappointment in Celie's eyes grew even more intense, and she even began to waver in her previous decision to accept him as a disciple.

It is difficult for such a hesitant and cowardly magician to achieve any remarkable success in the field of magic.

"I'm so sorry, Lady Celie."

"I really can't think of a single magic that I like best."

"That's it."

Celie was not surprised by the child's answer, and the enthusiasm she had for accepting him as her disciple when they first met was no longer in her eyes.

But after hesitating for a while, Celie decided to accept it.

After all, the child is still young and has a lot of room for improvement in his personality. At worst, I can just take him in and guide him slowly.

"that."

The little boy hadn't actually finished his speech, but Celia's aura was too strong, so he felt a little stuck standing next to her.

But after thinking for a long time, the little boy finally spoke out what was in his heart.

"Lady Celia, there's a reason why I can't answer your question."

"In my previous studies of magic, the only type of magic I could learn was [Sealing Magic]."

"So in my understanding, magic is just a tool to seal the demons. There's no such thing as likes or dislikes."

"To be honest, when I participated in the magician assessment this time, I didn't have any illusions about being accepted as your disciple. I just wanted to go out and see the outside world and see what kind of magic other magicians use."

"Is it more interesting than [Sealing Magic], or just as boring? Before I can verify it, it's difficult for me to answer."

"That's it."

Although it was the same words as before, Celie's tone of voice had changed significantly.

"Since you are still exploring, I promised to give every disciple the magic reward. Wait until you have the answer in your heart before asking me for it."

"Master Celia, are you saying that you're willing to accept me as your disciple?!"

The little boy shouted in surprise, his eyes lighting up.

"Ah~"

Celia shook her head and said helplessly, "Since you stepped into this palace, I don't think I ever told you that you were eliminated?"

The little boy cheered, forgetting his shyness at this moment. He waved his magic wand and cheered in the hall. The magic power around him also showed signs of instability.

Finally, Celie, who was annoyed by the noise, stood still with a look, and the restless magic power around her calmed down.

After calming down, the little boy blushed and apologized for his behavior. After leaving his name, he asked if he could go home first to tell his family the good news.

Celia naturally would not refuse such a request and immediately let the new disciple go back.

"Zayn Cam."

I silently repeated the name of my new junior brother, and it turned out to be the family surname [Cam]. The teacher's judgment was really accurate.

But Gut still had some confusion in his heart. Celia probably sensed that the disciple behind him had some thoughts, so she did not rush to let the next candidate in.

"Just ask whatever you want to ask. Why, you have to stumble a few times too?"

"That's not necessary." Gut denied.

"I'm just a little curious. I'm also intimidated by the teacher's aura. Why do you give this child so many opportunities?"

"Among the magicians you have rejected in the past, there are still some who are as talented as him."

"So, are you jealous?"

Celia asked back with great interest, and even stood up from her chair, walked in front of Gut, and looked into the disciple's eyes.

"How is that possible? Why do you have such an idea, teacher?"

Faced with the teacher's shocking words, Gut was shocked and helpless, but he really didn't have such feelings, and it seemed difficult to explain.

"Teacher, after all, I have lived for a long time. I have seen many things and I can understand many feelings."

"For example, even if they are from the same family, when their mother has a new child, the eldest son's psychology will undergo subtle changes."

"Perhaps they are worried that the new brother or sister will take away their mother's love; or perhaps they feel that they are no longer their mother's "only one"?"

Gut:.

"Teacher, you don't want me to call you mom, do you?"

"Maybe." Celia raised an eyebrow. "Anyway, you disciples are no different from children to me."

"I refuse." Gut refused decisively.

"Teacher, if you want to feel what it's like to be a mother, I can help you, but not in this way."

"Tsk-tsk-"

There was still a smile on Celie's lips, but the teasing look in her eyes was gone, and now there was a dangerous glint in her eyes.

"Gut, you are very ambitious, and I am very happy about that."

"But I don't like the direction of your ambition, teacher."

"Really?" Gut smiled. "But some things are beyond your control, and beyond my control, teacher."

After taking a deep look at her disciple, Celie returned to her chair and answered Gut's previous doubts.

"You ask me why I gave [Zayn] an extra chance?"

“This question is not difficult to answer because [Zayn] is different from those who were eliminated.”

"They were frightened in my presence because they were afraid of my magic power. They dared not move or speak."

"But that child is different. His timidity and stumbling speech are simply because he hasn't interacted with many people and is a little afraid of talking to outsiders."

"Perhaps [Zen] is also a little afraid of my reputation, but that is much easier to overcome than a physiological fear of my magic."

"Plus, he's still young, so I'm willing to give him more patience."

"So that's it."

After that, Gut no longer had any doubts in his heart. He continued to stand behind the teacher and watched Celiai call the next candidate in for an interview.

His gaze lingered on the elf's back for a long time, and at this moment, Gut suddenly began to question his own heart.

I care about whether the new junior brother [Zen] is receiving special care from the teacher. Is it really like what the teacher said?

Are you jealous or envious?

At an angle that Gut couldn't see, Celia, who was sitting in front, raised a smile of "It's true" at the corner of her mouth and thought silently in her heart.

"And you said you weren't jealous."

However, Celie soon stopped laughing, because after admitting in her heart that she might be jealous, Gut immediately changed her mind.

"I need to change my identity and thinking as a disciple as soon as possible."

"You can have many disciples, but you can only have one husband."

"Really? I have my ultimate goal. How can I be upset just because the teacher took special care of a disciple? That's totally wrong!"

"It's better to get on base as soon as possible and help the teacher take care of the younger students instead of thinking too much."

Celia:

No more laughing.

That evening.

As the bronze bell of the church next door rang out to tell the time.

Amidst the melodious echo of the bell, the first day's assessment of the [Continental Magic Association (Headquarters)] came to an end.
