"Back to school," Owen replied without hesitation, "The Grand Magus Academy houses a million books, and legend has it that anyone who reads all million can become a god. I want to give it a try."
He didn't try to hide his ambition.
Barlo was taken aback, almost in a daze.
This surely must be a jest, but he hadn't expected Owen to take it so seriously.
Finn and the others also stared at Owen, not having anticipated such ambition from him.
"How many have you read so far?"
"About eighty thousand," Owen replied earnestly, raising an eyebrow.
He had spent nearly half a year at the Grand Magus Academy, most of it in the library.
Coupled with his robust mental strength and excellent memory, reading eighty thousand books in half a year was no trouble at all.
Barlo gave a thumbs-up: "Your determination is rare, Your Highness. Go to the Grand Magus Academy then. Unfortunately, I cannot escort you further."
