Chapter 1965 - The Two Offers
Shatter!
"Wonderful, your talents are even greater than I had thought. Discovering a Havoc Bomber and neutralizing within a minute, not any normal person could do it," Said an old voice, and shattering sound could be heard, and three people walked toward me.
Of the three, one is a teacher, but the other two are not from the Academy, and seeing them, my eyes couldn"t help but widen up.
"Grand Tower Mistress," I said respectfully, "You have grown since the last time I had seen you, and you seemed to be better than I had heard," Said the old woman as she came closer to me.
Every voice in my head wanted to take a step back; while there was no aura coming from the old woman, every part of my body was shaking, wanting me to get as far as away from her. Saying this woman is powerful would be an understatement; she is so powerful that except for a handful of people, she could kill anyone in this world in a single attack..
"Micheal, Grand Tower Mistress Angela wanted to talk to you," the Teacher said, "Ok," I said to her; I know what she wanted to talk about and was curious what their terms would be but before, I wanted to one thing.
"It would be not a problem if I heal two patients before we talk, grand tower mistress," I asked, "No, go ahead," she said; I nodded thanks and went to heal the two remaining patients, it did not take me more than two minutes to do that, as for Camila, I am sure Teacher would handle it.
"Let"s talk somewhere private," Grand tower mistress said, and I disappeared from my spot and appeared in the small gazebo. What she just did was not spatial travel, but speed, pure speed, and I couldn"t help but get amazed by it.
The place she had brought me is Jasmine Garden, named in memory of a past headmistress; her grave is also in this garden, right across the lake.
"This place used to be a favorite of my dear friend Jasmine; if she knew her beloved academy had finally cultivated a student who had hope to take Celestial Inheritance inheritance to Tyrant stage, she would be extremly happy," old women said in a soft voice as she looked at a small lake outside of gazebo.
She must be referring to Jasmine Hofstader, the headmistress of three hundred years ago; she had died while fighting against the Grimm Monster.
She was quite young when she died, only fifty-two years old, and the only hope of Academy to get a powerhouse above Master cla.s.s Tyrant. If she had survived a decade or two, she would have definitely reached that stage.
"Thank you for your praise, grand tower mistress," I said, "Enough with grand tower mistress, the t.i.tle of mine is too long; you can call me lady angela," Old woman said while waving her hand.
"Anyways, you would have already guessed why I am here, so I will get to the point straight," Lady Angela said.
"We, The Wisdom Tower, have two offers for you; one is informal, the other is formal." She said. "The informal one will be done in good faith, in it will offer you full access of our grand library, there you can any test you want, as long as it is not directly related to the secretes wisdom tower, and you will be even able to pet.i.tion for them," she said, and my heartbeat quickens.
While I have all the knowledge to create my own Inheritance, the more is always better, especially when it came from the wisdom tower, which had the greatest collection in all the supremes.
I am excited about her offer, but I am waiting for what she wants in exchange; they will not hand over a thing, which they think I need the most without getting something in return.
"In return, we only hope you will teach some of our members, mentor them and help wisdom tower when it is in need," She said.
Hearing those terms, I couldn"t help but become shocked; while the terms are a little tough, they are not as tough as I had expected. Seeing it will be a contract of good faith and not be the binding one, they are giving me access to their most precious jewel.
"The second is a formal one, and here you will have sigh all those binding contracts. Here, you will become a member of Wisdom Tower and also its successor with access to every resource without question, and when you reach the tyrant stage and gain the power of Master cla.s.s Tyrants, we will hand over the reins of Wisdom Tower to you," She said, shocking the h.e.l.l out of me.
The other supremes have offered terms that said I might become their successor and even leader if I prove myself to them here; they are directly making me a successor without even seeing my abilities and leader when I reach the Master cla.s.s, they are going to state that in a binding contract.
The second offer is too alluring; I just wanted to say yes as doing that will solve all my problems instantly. I will get soak on knowledge of grand library of wisdom tower which is biggest in all supremes and also I will divine crystal or other resources equal to it.
Wisdom Tower might be the weakest supreme, but it is still a supreme with over a thousand years long history; they, without doubt, have divine crystals or resources similar to it, and to get it, I just have to sign on a couple of binding contracts, and they will be mine.
I will then only have to focus on my Inheritance and breaking into the Tyrant stage and not waste time scouring through the ruins.
"Can I have some time to think about it?" I asked finally, "You have all the time you need," she said and disappeared from my view; she and I both understood; I do not have time, I will be making my decision in a day or even before that.
