Requirements: The acolyte must assist in an experiment every month, and cannot be declined for any reason!”
“Mentor Dorotte, Department of Shadow, specialises in anatomy, conversion of energy, and necromancy.”
Requirements: acolytes must pay 1 magic crystal per month, and at the same time, cooperate with experiments!”
“Mentor Kroft, Department of Potioneering, specialises in medicine, herbalism, and neutralisation of energy.”
Able to provide information on 1 topic free of charge.
Requirements: acolytes must always help with the cleaning of the experimental lab, preparation and handling of various herbs, and at the same time, assist the Magus in carrying out herbal concoctions (on the basis that they cause no harm to the acolytes!)”
“Mentor Estelle, Department of Curses, specialises in curses, dissecting of human anatomy, and soul studies.”
Able to provide information on 5 topics free of charge. The category is chosen by the acolytes, and can guide acolytes in their studies at any given time!
Requirements: Cooperate with one experiment! Only one!”
The pages flipped, and let out a rustling noise. By the time the last grain of sand fell, Leylin had managed to flip to the last page.
“Your memory isn’t bad, which is useful for your studies in the future! How is it? Who will you choose?” The old man smiled and asked.
Leylin closed his eyes, “A.I Chip! How is the collation of data?”
[Beep! Data is in order, information on 53 mentors collated. In process of discarding the enticing conditions!]
Leylin’s complexion turned bitter, “The information in the brackets for Mentor Kroft earlier made me rather mindful. It seems like the experiments of Magi are dangerous, and can actually jeopardise the safety of the acolytes!”
“Kroft is only doing experiments on herbal concoctions, but what of the others, like the shadow and necromancy experiments?”
“No wonder the requirements given are so easy to meet, not needing to give payment for information. It was, in fact, so they could lure students who would cooperate for experimental testing! Although they might not have any adverse effects, it’s all over once they do!”
“A.I Chip! Carry out the filtering process, with the conditions: To match with my current circumstances.”
[Beep!] The blue light flashed, and the light blue screen in front of Leylin flickered. More than half of the mentors’ information was omitted, leaving only a miserable few choices, including Dorotte’s.
“Mentor Dorotte, Department of Shadow, specialises in anatomy, conversion of energy, and necromancy.”
Requirements: acolytes must give one 1 magic crystal each month, and at the same time, cooperate with experiments!”
“Mentor Kroft, Department of Potioneering, specialises in medicine, herbalism, and neutralisation of energy.”
Able to provide information on 1 topic free of charge.
Requirements: acolytes must always help with the cleaning of the experimental lab, preparation and handling of various herbs, and at the same time, assist the Magus in carrying out herbal concoctions (on the basis that they cause no harm to the acolytes!)”
“It seems like Dorotte’s temper isn’t too bad amongst the mentors. If not, he wouldn’t have gone to fetch the new batch of acolytes.”
Leylin thought inwardly, “A pity that my magic crystals are not enough, and he has Jayden already. I’m afraid there will not be much attention given to me!”
“Also the Shadow Department mentors all require acolytes to cooperate with their experiments and cannot ensure the safety of acolytes. This is such a fraud!”
Leylin helpless omitted the mentors of the Shadow Department.
“What’s left is only this Alchemy mentor! With the extreme and unique advantages that I have with my A.I Chip, I can definitely make use of alchemy to earn money and buy knowledge related to the Dark element!”
To others, Leylin had merely closed his eyes and made his choice right after opening them.
“I choose Mentor Kroft!”
“Alchemy?” The old man was a little surprised, “You wish to become an alchemist? The effort and resources invested are extremely horrifying! Do you want to change? I think Dorotte suits you well!”
“Thank you, sir!” Leylin earnestly bowed, “I have a hobby for alchemy, and have also acquired some knowledge in this field beforehand.”
“The mortal world’s perception of alchemy is totally different from that of the world of Magi!” The old man shook his head. Then, seeing Leylin’s resolute gaze, he couldn’t help but exclaim,
“Since you have already decided, so be it!” After speaking, the old man took a quill pen and scribbled on the parchment paper.
“Here are your belongings, follow the shadow slave to where Kroft is!”
The old man handed a sack over to Leylin.
Leylin bowed deeply and even nodded to the remaining acolytes, before leaving through the large door.
