"By the way, Headmaster Astoria, what had become of my research notes?" Vaan changed the topic as he glanced at Astoria across the dining table.
"About that…"
Astoria suddenly felt awkward regarding what she should say.
After all, Vaan was assumed dead when she arbitrarily turned his notes into a book to spread his fame and nurture the future generations of witches.
After a brief pause of hesitation, Astoria explained everything to Vaan honestly. In any case, what has been done cannot be undone.
"I see… You turned those notes into a book. And even now, both Blackmoon and Redpine Academies are likely making more copies as we speak," Vaan muttered as he rubbed his chin with a thoughtful look.
"On top of that, Headmaster Astoria also took a copy to Her Majesty, and now I am being recommended for the Venerable Sage title… Interesting."
If it were before the expedition to the Red Goblin Mountains, such news would have troubled his mind.
