For a moment, Theo simply stared at her.
The gray chaos mana slowly faded from around his hand, leaving behind a strange silence in the room.
''Your personal student?'' he repeated. ''As in outside of Westridge?''
Elise nodded once.
''Yes.''
Theo blinked.
Even though she'd asked it in such a simple tone, he understood very well how much those words were actually worth.
Elise wasn't just some random instructor.
She was one of, if not the strongest person he'd ever met.
A diamond core mage with four elements and countless insane spells.
Not to mention her mastery in the water and chaos elements, which was at a level he couldn't possibly comprehend yet.
And now… she was offering to personally teach him.
Theo slowly lowered his hand.
Then his eyes narrowed slightly.
"What exactly are you offering me?" he asked calmly.
A faint flicker of surprise appeared within Elise's eyes.
