The Bizarre Wizarding World-Chapter 221 - 172: Influence

"What is your decision, Junior Apprentice Colin?" Lillian asked.

Her expression was calm, ready to accept Colin's decision to change mentors.

Colin had joined under Atbolde's guidance only four months ago... If he chose to stay, that would be the oddity.

After all, to put oneself in his shoes, staying would mean losing the possibility of enhancing the quality of his Talent, as well as future resources... Who would want to take such a risk that could affect their future?

Watching Colin's silent demeanor, Lillian sighed inwardly and added,

"Junior Apprentice Colin, don't feel pressured. Water flows downhill; people climb to higher places. It's the most common thing in the world."

Colin was slightly startled; he was just grateful that he hadn't joined the Alus Association and was a bit distracted.

"Sister Apprentice Lillian," he hurriedly said, "I don't plan to change my mentor. I will continue to stay."

This time, it was Lillian who was taken aback, her gem-like blue eyes widening slightly.

After a moment, she smiled in relief and continued to comfort him,

"Junior Apprentice Colin, don't force yourself... The mentor will understand your choice."

"Sister Apprentice Lillian, you misunderstand. I just don't like to fight," Colin shook his head and continued, "That Alus Association, even if I had participated, in the end, it's not guaranteed that I could make use of Alus... As for resources, other places don't have the peace that I have here with my mentor."

"Junior Apprentice Colin, are you serious?" Lillian asked, somewhat incredulously.

"It's true, I really have no intention of changing mentors," Colin nodded and said solemnly.

Lillian was taken aback for a second and tried persuading him a few more times.

Seeing that Colin was serious about not changing mentors, she finally stopped.

"I will try to obtain the best Magic Potion for cultivating Talent Seeds for you."

After pondering for a moment, Lillian looked at Colin and spoke solemnly,

"Although I can't get you the qualification to participate in the Alus Association, getting you the best Magic Potion for cultivating Talent Seeds... I think that shouldn't be a problem."

Since Colin had chosen to stay, no matter his reasons, his value in her heart had increased.

Colin felt pleased and quickly expressed his thanks,

"Thank you, Sister Apprentice Lillian."

Although the Golden Paper could give him an effect similar to Alus, he still lacked the best Magic Potion for cultivating Talent Seeds compared to the apprentices who attended the Alus Association.

If Lillian could find him the best Magic Potion for cultivating Talent Seeds, then there really wouldn't be much difference between that and having participated in the Alus Association and coming out on top.

"Mhm," Lillian nodded and then instructed, "During this time, try to thoroughly study the knowledge you've already mastered... Don't learn anything new for now, and when you've reached the limit of what you can learn, you can start to cultivate your Talent Seeds."

"I understand," Colin nodded.

Afterwards, Lillian chatted with him a bit more and then stood up to leave.

After bidding farewell to Lillian, Colin stood in the courtyard, quietly contemplating.

The grass was vibrant green, the flowers and fruits abundant.

Under Nado's management, the garden in front of him was ordered and exquisitely maintained.

A gentle breeze blew, causing it to sway gracefully.

"Phew—"

Colin exhaled a breath of stale air and stepped into the Meditation Room.

Pushing open the thick, grey ironwood door, he sat down on the soft cushion in the middle of the room, and with a thought, summoned the Golden Paper.

Golden particles slowly congregated.

[Name: Colin Leonard]

[Limit Breaking Point: 0]

Carefully scanning from top to bottom, Colin closed his eyes gently.

In the recent months, because he had spent all his time on practices such as the Meditation Method, his proficiency in magic had not improved much.

As Lillian had said, what he needed most to do right now was to practice his unperfected Meditation Method and Magic to their limits.

Opening his eyes, Colin prepared to start practicing Magic immediately.

But the next second, the surging Magic Power gradually subsided.

His gaze flickered as if he thought of something. He didn't continue practicing Magic, but instead slowly stood up and walked towards the door.

Perfecting his Magic Practice was important, but before that, he might need to understand more about the Talent Seed.

Since whether his knowledge of Magic is thoroughly mastered would affect the quality of the Talent Seed, then—

Would the amount and types of Magic knowledge he possessed also affect the quality of the Talent Seed he would cultivate?

With such questions on his mind, Colin called for a public carriage and headed to the School.

Clip-clop, clip-clop—

The large horses, with traces of Demon Beast bloodlines, pulled the grey carriage swiftly along the broad road; soon enough, they reached the Tin Saint School.
