Max sighed at his fate. Mages are stubborn being that always chasing their goal. If they stopped, they lose their purposes and death are at the end of the road.
Max knew cannot reject so he follows his instinct. A beautiful instructor is always better than a decrepit old man. An oasis for mental health is very important!
"I accept" Max answered.
"Umu! My name is Uriel Gladys, Second Grade Ice Mage specialized on conversion of energy and sword combat"
'Ice Mage? Is it associated with the conversion of energy? But sword combat? Which mage learn sword technique when they're busy with playing with the spell?' Max habits of questioning everything happened again. Fortunately it all his monologue.
Uriel stands and walks fast but elegantly toward Max. Her long indigo robe cannot hide the mystical shape of her body.
'Damnn she hot! I'm been too busy since I came to this world doesn't have time to release myself and now there someone challenging my sanity! She far more enchanting than Minerva's milf mother!'
'SECOND! Display the images of ugly old man!'
[Affirmative!]
Tons of old man visual showed in front of Max's view. His body start turned off.
'Desperate times called desperate measures'
"Come with me" Uriel cold but enchanting voiced out.
Max follows Uriel out of office.
"Sigh...We missed our chances this session. Okay. Call the grade A talents next one by one. Let's play fair now folks" the old mage proposed.
Everyone agreed.
Uriel brought Mage away the lobby and passed through a corridor. At the end of the corridor, there is a door. Both of them enter it.
"Huh? Why we here?" Max and Uriel are in closed white room measure five meters squared.
Max's mind starts to wanders and SECOND keeps displaying image to cool him down.
A few moments later, Uriel open and stepped out the door with Max follows behind. The corridor change! This is a different floor.
'That an elevator before? Powered by magic? Make sense. Which mage has time to climb floor by floor in this tall tower? It takes a long time!'
Max followed behind Uriel passing through many corridors and halls finally going into a large room. Inside the room, there are a large garden with a chair and a table in the middle.
"This is my office. Next time when I call, come here quickly!" Uriel sits on the chair and Max still standing despite been walking so long.
"Take this" She handing a blue-leathered book to Max.
"I personally wrote that book. It should teach you how to convert your mana nature to the ice element. Come to see me again when you reach rank 1 mage apprentice. I give you the next rune then."
Max received the book while hiding his excitement. 'I finally have the method to overcome my bottleneck!'
"I give you a warning!" Uriel stared at Max coldly.
Max start to produce cold sweat again on his body.
'Did she realize when my eyes wandering on her before?'
Offending a Mage is a death sentence and offending a Second Grade Mage is worst than death. Max learned that from a book.
"If you fail to learn this method, I will expel you even though you are grade S talent! I don't need a waste!"
Max gulped.
"Now leave!"
This hotty is cold!
