All of the people who were making their way toward the entrance of the hall turned around to look at Fitch with incredulity in their eyes. Fitch had always been groomed as the successor to Erma, who was the most esteemed figure in the field of mathematics in the Roth Empire.
With such a prestigious backer, Fitch had an immeasurable future, and he was destined to become the scintillating star among the world of scholars.
But now, this young man was throwing that bright future away to learn about the decimal system from Mag?
Mag and his daughter had just given the conservatives a vicious slap to the face, yet Fitch was immediately jumping ship and joining them.
What he was doing was akin to ruining his own future career! Here in Rodu, if any scholar were to offend Erma, then they would never amount to anything, as they would be oppressed and ostracized until the day they died.
