The Master Of Elements

ME 58 Arthur's

John walked towards the field in front of the palace. There are already many large tents that tomorrow will be used as a place to conduct an initial selection of admission of new students of Andradius Academy.

A few meters before they approached the tent, a man stopped John. The man carried a sword on his waist.

Although not wearing armor, the man was wearing a fairly thick shirt with a chest protector made of metal. The chest protector had an image of a silver-colored sword with five stars surrounding it.

“You stop there. This is not an area you can go to that easily. This is the tent of Andradius Academy. If you want to find a shortcut for your family members to be accepted into Andradius Academy, I'm sorry we didn't do that kind of thing. So come back.” Obviously the young man.

John just smiled a little at that. At least this young man in front of him was being very polite. He did not directly act rude to them just because they did ‘error’. The young man still reminded them politely.

“You don't have to worry young man. I didn't come here to find a back lane for my family members to receive at Andradius Academy. I have very little business with the person in charge of the selection tomorrow.” Answer John.

John then took out a jade slip with a symbol drawn there. He then threw the jade stone at the man in front of him, who was easily captured by the man.

“Give this token to the organizer of this selection. He'll know who I am. While you go inside I will wait for you here.”

The man scrunched his forehead a little. He didn't expect there to be anything like this. He could guess that this old man would ‘bribe’ the person in charge of the selection this time, in order to pass his family members.

In fact, he had already warned this old man that they did not accept someone through the back lane. What the parents threw out was definitely something to bribe the selection in charge.

This man has met a lot of this. This whole morning alone this old man was the fifth person who wanted to meet with the selection person in charge. All were expelled by this man.

The closer the selection time was, the more people tried to bribe the selection. If so, then he needs to tighten guard.

If until someone infiltrates and meets the person in charge of the selection, then he will be exposed to problems. Punishment would definitely await him at the academy later.

The man intended to scold and return to drive away this old man in front of him. But his intention was unraveled after seeing what was depicted in the jade.

“Is this really yours Sir?” The young man looked at John with a scrabbling look.

“Of course it's mine. You just show the token to the person in charge of this selection. He will know what to do after this.”

“Ah, well then Sir. Wait here as much as I give this token to the elder who is in charge of the selection this time.” After saying so, the young man rushed towards the tent that was there.

Ten minutes later, from the largest tent there, a middle-aged man walked in with a slight shock toward John. Behind him the man who had previously confronted John, followed the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's forehead was covered in sweat. Feelings of worry and worry appear on the man's face. The middle-aged man stopped five steps ahead of John. He then slightly bowed his head to John.

“Administration head, I don't know if you'll be visiting here. You should have told me if you wanted to come here so I could give you a little welcome.” Said the man in a voice that was quite slow, a voice that could only be heard by the three people who were there.

The man standing behind the middle-aged man was shocked to hear the statement just now. He could not believe that in front of him now stood the Head of the Academy who was famous for his eccentricity. He often heard that the Head of the Academy often ventured outside the academy

Some of his seniors said that they had met with the head of the academy, while on a mission. Those who could meet the head of the academy would be proud of themselves. The reason is, the head of the academy will always change his face every two months.

It makes it hard for them to recognize it. Normally, anyone who had met the head of the academy outside, would tell that to his friends and turn themselves into how lucky they were.

The young man suddenly realized that he had acted presumptuously by looking directly at the Head of the Academy. He sat his head down with a little fear.

Although from what he heard the Head of the Academy was not a cruel person, and would not punish him just for trivial matters, but the man felt it was inappropriate to see the Head of the Academy directly.

You could say, it was not fear that was the main reason this young man did not dare to look at John. Except for a considerable admiration for John. This weak self did not deserve to look straight at John who was like that big mountain.

“I did not expect that the person in charge of this selection was You Arthur. You don't have to feel anxious like that when I come. It just so happened that I was in Greenwood City and heard that tomorrow there will be a selection. So I wanted to stop by to see. You don't have to act like that Arthur.”

John did not immediately say the meaning of his arrival. He wanted to say all that to Arthur after they were in a quieter place.

The man named Arthur breathed a little relieved to hear John's words. At least this wasn't a surprise inspection from John. But there is still a sense of worry in Arthur.

Everything was prepared carefully. Arthur doesn't think there's going to be a big problem. But Arthur didn't want to let his guard down. There is John here.

“Then let's get inside my tent. We can chat inside the Head of Academy.” Bring Arthur.

Arthur invites John to enter the tent he occupies. At least they could speak a little more freely inside the tent than here.

“Sure. There is also something else that we need to talk about tomorrow's event.” Answer John.
