When is a person at their strongest?
When they want for nothing!
Dean Bruce had been debating how to spark Herbert Jones' interest in magic.
Unexpectedly, the opportunity fell right into his lap!
If he could get Herbert interested in learning that magic, he could easily teach him more later on.
With a mischievous glint in his eyes, Dean smiled and asked, "Feels pretty amazing, doesn't it? Would you like to learn how?"
"Yes!"
Herbert nodded eagerly, grinning widely. "My body's already strong, so if I can learn that magic, I'll be tougher than stone! No one's magic would be able to hurt me!"
"..."
Dean chuckled. "That magic is pretty basic. I have even more powerful ones. Interested?"
"I'm not!"
To Dean's surprise, Herbert shook his head vigorously. "I don't need any other magic! I just like using my fists!"
Dean Bruce's mouth twitched as he finally realized that he had said the wrong thing.
