Chapter 85: Selection [2]
Chapter 85: Selection [2]
*
Amon pondered on what to do.
He looked at Michael who was excitedly looking at his sheet.
He had just talked to the guy and was very excited to take classes with the teacher.
He was even happy that Amon was there with him since he didn't know how to talk with Elizabeth.
Taking out how the plotline messed up, there wasn't much of a problem with the session.
It was even beneficial for Amon as he still had difficulty transitioning mana through his body during combat.
It was just that it would be a mad problem if Daniel switched targets from Michael to him.
And from the potion incident, there was still a high possibility.
Then, Athena spoke up from the podium.
"These personal training sessions aren't compulsory, you are free to reject them if you want. You cannot switch teachers. There was much debate over students that got their names in
multiple lists so we had to sort them out."
She rammed her hands slightly on the table.
"The names in the lists are final. The only changes that will be made are if you reject and someone wants to take up your spot."
Amon massaged his temples, sensing a headache coming.
[Just accept it, what is the worst that's going to happen?] Zephyra questioned.
After pondering on her question for a long, Amon decided to just accept it.
Though there was a chance that if he rejected, the original person was going to take up the spot, he went ahead and took the safer option.
His being on the team was still better than a completely random being on it and not the original person.
Besides, it was better since he was going to improve a lot till the time when he would finally make the attack.
All he had to was act exactly like the original person and stay low while also putting more spotlight on Michael and Elizabeth.
As someone who would be there during the training, he could solve any issues that would arise.
After writing that he accepted the training session on the sheet, he handed it back to Elizabeth.

Amon exited the academic building along with Michael after classes.
They were supposed to have their first training session now and both of them decided to go together.
Ren had already left with his sister a few minutes ago after bidding them farewell.
As for Elizabeth, she would probably be there when they arrived.
Though there was a ground for clovists and armentists, there were was a completely separate block for the personal training sessions.
After taking a carriage, Amon and Michael arrived in front of a large building.
It was completely white, reflecting the golden-orange rays of the setting sun.
It wasn't the only one as there was a whole row extending to the side of the same building.
The interior of the building was the same as they saw outside.
Completely covered in white tiles all around.
As they walked in, they saw Daniel casually wearing a bodysuit and leaning against a wall with bored eyes.
He had a magazine in his hands and his appearance was haggard.
His hair were messed up and he had dark circles under his eyes.
'The miasma must be affecting him...' Amon instantly thought as he observed his appearance.
Humans weren't capable of handling demonic energy.
Especially so if they awakened and their bodies were attuned to mana before their exposition to miasma.
The energies would clash with each other, destroying the body of the person as a result. And this was just by being exposed to miasma, using it was an entirely different case. Your mana veins would slowly get corrupted and die because of the influence of miasma.
And mostly you would end up dying or being crippled before the change in your body system and energy could take place.
There was only a slim chance that you would survive.
And during this change and corruption, the user would slowly fall into madness and insanity.
It could occur in various ways, hallucinations or nightmares, etc.
And this was exactly what was happening to Daniel right now.
Noticing their presence, he looked up and raised a hand.
"Heya." He hoarsely greeted and both Michael and Amon bowed.
For some reason, he showed no hostility towards Amon in his eyes.
Didn't he hate him for soiling his plans with Michael?
He even thought that a certain percentage of the reason why he was selected was because Daniel wanted to have his revenge on him.
Amon's eyes spotted Elizabeth in the corner wearing a bodytight suit.
The suit exposed the alluring and perfect curves of her body, highlighting her beauty.
Her long white hair were tied into a ponytail, exposing her nape.
Amon's gaze was stuck for a moment on the scene before the goddess inside his head quickly
woke him up.
[Hey! Wake up!]
Shaking his head, Amon stood up and greeted Elizabeth with a wave.
She smiled and waved back.
Afterward, he and Michael proceeded to a changing room in the corner.
After 10 minutes, they both arrived outside, wearing bodysuits as well. Coming back to stand with Elizabeth, all three of them looked at Daniel. He put his magazine aside and slightly tapped the white tile beside him.
A rippling sound resounded before instantly, and the whole interior of the building started
glitching.
Amon's senses distorted as he felt himself losing all of them one by one.
After a minute, they gradually started returning.
But as he opened his eyes, he was greeted by a completely different scene.
They were now standing in the clearing of a lush green forest.
Fresh grass had replaced the previously white floor and large trees had sprouted out of the
ground.
The rippling sounds of a river could be heard from nearby and the walls and ceiling of the
room had completely disappeared.
The previous room was nowhere to be seen.
All of them looked around with awe before their eyes settled in front of Daniel who had a
toothpick in his mouth.
For the barest moment, Amon saw his lips curl up into an intrigued smile.
"Let's begin the lesson shall we?"
