The Genius Mage

“Senior Claude, how do you think this matter should be resolved?” Harilanka asked tentatively, afraid that he had said something wrong that would upset the old man in front of him.

The old man whom he addressed as senior Claude raised his head and looked at the young girl in front of him.

“What’s your name?” Claude’s voice was the same as his own, with a hint of age.

Audrey had already realized that something was wrong when the voice had reached her ears. This was the voice that she had heard in the magic faculty.

She remembered that teacher Claude had vowed that he would never get involved in anything. She had never expected that he would appear here today.

Audrey hid the doubts in her heart and answered, “My name is Audrey.”

“Audrey…” Claude frowned. No matter how he looked at her, the little girl in front of him looked very ordinary. Moreover, he seemed to have heard this name somewhere before.

She was the famous piece of trash from the Davis family.

No one could believe it. She had defeated Daisy with her bare hands and even sneaked into his magic branch to study. It seemed like everything could be explained.

He had also heard about this matter from a passer-by while he was studying magic. The rumors were getting more and more outrageous. It could even be said that such a little girl had directly scattered the whirlwind of wind blades without even using a spell.

Claude did not believe it at first. Who knew that he just happened to pass by the arena and only took a casual glance. He was immediately shocked by the astonishing power.

With just a light step, the ground made of obsidian was shattered into pieces.

No matter how he thought about it, it was not something that could be done at her age. He had thought that the student who had sneaked in was just an ordinary person. He had not expected that her combat aura was so strong.

That was why he had specially agreed to the group’s request this time. He had called the higher-ups over and planned to have a meeting to discuss what was going on.

Audrey frowned slightly. It did not feel good to stand in the room and be looked at. She even began to feel like she was some kind of commodity, being looked at wantonly.

Audrey struggled in her heart for a long time before she finally opened her mouth. “Can I trouble you to tell me why you specifically called me over?”

The faces of the people sitting in the room instantly turned ugly. They did not know how to explain.

What could they say? Could it be that they just laid their cards on the table and said that she was too powerful. So they wanted to call you over to ask about your background? This was a little too direct, even for them.

Moreover, if they really said that, even if she was hiding something, the few of them would not be able to detect it.

In the end, it was still Harilanca who coughed softly and opened his mouth.

“I really want to know how you managed to fight a fighter with your bare hands.” He raised his eyes to look at the calm-looking girl in front of him.

Audrey opened her mouth and said, “I didn’t fight with my bare hands. I used a level-two fighter move. It’s just that no one noticed it at the time.”

When these words were said, everyone understood. It turned out that she had used a level-two fighting technique. The three moves that Daisy had used were only at level one. From the looks of it, it was understandable that she could defeat her opponent.

Claude took a deep breath. He had lived for such a long time, so he could naturally sense that this young lady in front of him was somewhat different from the rest, but he could not tell what it was about.

He slowly stood up, but in the end, he could not hold back the curiosity in his heart, instead, he directly opened his mouth and said, “Then let me introduce myself. I am the last magister here. Let me be frank, I am very interested in you, so I want to take you as my disciple.”

As soon as he said this, the entire room was in an uproar.

Harilanka hurriedly said, “Teacher Claude, you have to think twice before you act. Although this young lady in front of us said that her performance was amazing, we haven’t even gotten to the bottom of her background.”

“That’s right, senior Claude. I advise you to think carefully first. Or rather, you should wait for us to investigate first. Moreover, this young lady has just rejected the invitation from the jury. If something happens, what should you do?”

“Senior, please think carefully before you act.”

Everyone in the room advised Claude, wanting him to give up on this idea.

“Alright, I’ll talk to her about the rest. You guys can leave first.” Claude waved his hand.

Harilanca was stunned for a moment. subconsciously, he wanted to persuade him to let these people stay here. Who knew that Claude was very stubborn. He directly turned his head and glared at them.

They did not dare to say anything else. They could only turn their heads and leave the room. They were filled with doubts. What was the background of this little girl that could make Claude, one of the five heads of state, do such a thing.

“If I’m not wrong, you were the one who had been reading in the magic faculty recently, right?” Claude said, “In that case, I believe that under my guidance, you will improve much faster than you can learn on your own.”

Audrey averted her gaze. She did not want to be apprenticed to a master, she also did not like being bound.

However, after hearing what these people said, the old man in front of her was the last magister they had. One could imagine how high his status was. Perhaps he could solve her doubts.

However…

Audrey took a gentle breath. “Sorry.”
