Augustus stared at the young boy in front of him with a complicated gaze. In the end, he could only shake his head helplessly.
"Fine. let's not waste each other's time," Augustus said as he sat on a chair. "I plan to hand you over to Minerva in exchange for a few slots for the Genesis Domain."
"I see," Alex replied.
Augustus was waiting for the boy to say more, but Alex just closed his eyes as he leaned on the wall.
"That's it?" Augustus asked. "You won't agree or disagree with my proposal?"
"Whether the headmaster will agree to your proposal is up to her," Alex answered with his eyes still closed. "I don't have a say in the matter."
"But you are her student. Why should she not care for your safety?"
"The headmaster and I aren't that close."
