When Terran erged from his castle, he was taken aback to find the entire Gang waiting for him at the door.
A sigh escaped his lips as he took in their presence.
As he changed into his beast armor, he contemplated the best excuses he could co up with to deceive his new students about his departure.
He hadn’t even had the chance to teach them anything yet, but as he locked eyes with Alec, he knew that all the lies he had fabricated were pointless.
Alec was far too intelligent to be fooled by such falsehoods.
After Observing Alec and the rest of the group, Terran realized just how special they all were and how much respect they held for Alec as their leader.
Inspired by their admiration, he decided it was ti to be honest.
However, before he could utter a word, Alec beat him to it.
"How long do you think you’ll be gone?" Alec questioned, his eyes lacking the innocence one would expect from soone who had just turned fifteen a few months ago.
"I can’t say for certain, but I believe I’ll be away for a while, So, I have a favor to ask of you, can you help take care of my responsibilities and watch over your brothers and sisters?"
" I know it’s my job, but please forgive your inadequate master for his inability to fight the system, considering my current weakness,"
Terran lanted, placing his hands on Alec’s shoulders.
"You don’t have to tell twice, that’s my responsibility, No one will be able to harm them without having to go through "
" And if anyone does hurt them, I will exact revenge tenfold,"
Alec declared fiercely, his eyes blazing with determination, Terran nodded in acknowledgnt, while Arthur’s temper flared.
"How can you say your strength is low, master? I truly respect you and find you incredibly strong, It’s not every day we co across a Tier 7 Mage who can hold their own against a Tier 8 Mage,"
Arthur interjected, showering Terran with complints in an attempt to make him realize his own worth.
Terran simply smiled warmly as he stepped forward and placed his hand on Arthur’s head.
"Ouch!! Master,"
Arthur exclaid, rubbing his head, Terran chuckled and continued ruffling Arthur’s hair, unfazed by his complaints.
"You mischievous boy," Terran laughed.
" Do you think it’s special to find a mage who can fight a Tier 8 Mage? Nah, not really, The academy has up to thirty Tier 8 Mages, All they need to do is gang up and beat the hell out of ."
"The only way to truly command respect and reach real power is by entering that realm they hold so dear, the realm that distinguishes a regular instructor from a great one," Terran mused.
"Although I don’t have much to offer you as I leave, I believe this will be of so help, I ca across this tal elent skill in a ruin, and even though I don’t possess the tal elent, I’ve kept it until I found soone worthy. It seems to suit your personality,"
Terran explained, revealing a golden-colored skill to from his storage ring and placing it in Arthur’s palm.
Alec peered over Arthur’s shoulder and read the na of the skill, "Dance of tal Blades."
The temptation to open it and start learning imdiately was strong, but Arthur restrained himself.
anwhile, Terran moved and a large bag appeared in his hand before he let it drop to the ground.
Bang!!! The heavy bag made a loud noise as it landed, causing the entire gang to shiver.
Terran smiled nervously at Alec and spoke.
"These are the iron bracers I used when I was growing up, I always had two in my hands, You can decide how you want to use them and adjust them as you see fit."
" If you truly want to use them, that is, I haven’t had any disciples whom I feel would greatly benefit from them."
" However, I’ve noticed that your physical powers seem to exceed what your body can handle, resulting in a lack of balance in your strength control and quick exhaustion."
" These bracers will help you regain control as they create a gravitational effect, acting as resistance training," Terran explained.
Terran looked at Alec, and a faint twitch appeared on Alec’s lips as he t his master’s gaze.
It was as if Alec was silently questioning him
"How the heck do you expect to carry that gigantic bag?, Even you were so quick to toss it aside!"
"Ohh, I see your concern," Terran chuckled.
"Here, take this, it might help you with storing things!"
Terran handed Alec a storage ring, and Alec’s eyes gleaming mischievously.
Alec had always wanted a storage ring, but all he had was a storage pouch that could only hold summons, pets, and other living beings in those categories.
This was his very own first storage ring, and he eagerly snatched it from his master’s hands, admiring his latest acquisition with a wide grin.
He infused his mana into the ring to inspect it, only to discover that it provided a re five cubic ters of space.
Alec couldn’t help but pout as he glanced at his master.
Clearly, it was a low-level storage ring, He had heard rumors that his master was not the wealthiest, but this was the first ti he truly felt the extent of his master’s financial struggles.
Alec couldn’t understand how his master couldn’t even afford to gift him a mid-rank space ring. He had heard tales of exceptional disciples from other instructors receiving mid-rank space rings as gifts, Agnes had ntioned it once.
"Um, please forgive your broke master once more, but I am incredibly broke and can’t afford to provide for you," Your next read is at .Côm
Terran laughed nervously, trying to ease the situation, He then proceeded to distribute gifts to everyone.
Agnes received a wand that enhanced the power of her water-based spells, while Brandon received a brand new Tier 2 Armor.
Terran even made sure to give the Knight a dark elent skill to.
He continued to distribute benefits to the other clan mbers, providing them with what he felt they deserved and needed.
"That’s it for now, Goodbye, my disciples. Always take care of each other,"
Terran said before wrapping them all in a group hug, not giving any of them a chance to reject or escape the reach of his wide arms.
Terran cast one final glance at his students, a heavy sigh escaping his lips, before he descended the peak.
He did not turn back, not even once, as his students waved goodbye to their beloved master.
As he walked away, making his way towards the academy space axis, two mages observed him from a distance.
One of them was the lightning mage who had previously inford Terran about his deploynt, and the second Mage had a fog covering his face.
