Chapter 116: One Week Later (II)
So, hearing Melinda say she agreed, George couldn"t help but look at her a few more times to confirm she wasn"t joking
However, after seeing her straight face and sensing the seriousness in her tone, George knew there was no mistake.
Realising this, he spoke to her .
"Melinda, since you"ve agreed to join, then you"ll have to know all the rules and regulations of this place, along with what it means to be a wizard and what is a wizard."
Saying all this, George had a smile plastered on his face as he seemed to have suddenly become a lot friendlier to Melinda. Obviously, he had already started treating her as one of his own.
And Melinda sensing the sudden change in George"s att.i.tude couldn"t help but smile wryly.
"Could it be that having brain problems is a side effect of becoming a wizard? If not, why do the emotions of people around here keep fluctuating??"
Thinking of Elric from before, and seeing George like this now, Melinda silently hoped that she wouldn"t become like the two of them once she became a wizard
Unfortunately, George, who she was currently giving weird looks to, was oblivious to what was going on in Melinda"s mind as he was currently smiling thinking of the fact that he had completed Elric"s task with time to spare.
In fact, George himself didn"t believe that Melinda would agree so easily. But seeing her do so, who was he to tell her otherwise? With this in mind, George prepared to quickly end the tour before taking her back to Elric to report her answer
However, before he could speak Melinda who had remained quiet for a while now suddenly interrupted him.
"George, before we continue anything, um could we maybe take a look at my sister and some of my people first?"
Saying this, the look of worry in Melinda"s eyes could not be concealed.
Although so far she had tried to hide it, the more time pa.s.sed the more Melinda worried about her sister"s condition. Remembering Diana"s determination back then to sacrifice herself back then, Melinda couldn"t help but feel proud.
However, when she remembered the listless look in Diana"s eyes as she blamed herself for everything that happened, the worry in her eyes intensified.
Fortunately, George didn"t seem to think it was too much of a big deal, and directly told Melinda about her sister and tribesmen"s whereabouts.
"Oh, about the rest of your group, they"re fine," said George with a nonchalant att.i.tude.
However, he quickly changed his words as soon as he noticed the worrying look in Melinda"s eyes, obviously since she was going to become a fellow wizard, it wouldn"t make sense to create a grudge out of something as little as this.
And who knows, Melinda might use this as a reason to decide not to agree with Elric"s offer.
Thinking of this, with a slight cough George had no choice but to rephrase his words.
*Ahem! *
"What I meant was, that your tribesmen are currently doing great!"
"If I"m not mistaken, all of them including your sister should currently be having some practical knowledge cla.s.s with Davis"
"And if you"d like, we can make a quick stop at where they are before we go meet the young master and tell him your decision."
Saying this, George looked at Melinda from the corner of his eyes trying to observe her situation.
Thankfully, it seemed his words this time were enough as her worried expression had greatly reduced. instead, an anxious one could be seen bubbling underneath. Obviously, she couldn"t wait to see the situation of her sister. fr(e)ewebn(o)vel
Sensing this change of emotion, George knew what needed to be done.
"Alright, since it"s decided, let"s head over there now"
Although George knew that this would delay his completion of the task, given the current situation he knew he had no choice.
Shaking his head slightly, George waved his hand to Melinda as he beckoned for her to follow him to their newly built cla.s.sroom. According to what he guessed; Davis should most likely be teaching them there.
............
Luckily, it seemed George"s prediction was spot on as Davis was currently teaching the rest of Melinda"s tribesmen in the newly built cla.s.sroom located on the opposite wing from where they were.
At this moment, a large cla.s.sroom built to accommodate around two hundred normal-sized people was currently filled with about a hundred semi-giant women averaging a height of one and a half metres tall.
With Morgana, Rowena, Eleanore, and Diana occupying the front row, the whole cla.s.sroom was silent with only Davis" voice sounding from time to time.
Standing with his arms, legs, and ribs still covered in bandages, Davis faced the crowd with a serious expression on his face.
If fact, apart from the occasional wincing due to pain and the obvious bandages, this past week Davis injuries could have been said to have healed at least seventy percent. So much so that even he couldn"t help but be surprised by his fast-healing rate.
However, Davis who was already tired of laying down all day disregarded his injuries and immediately set off to begin work, luckily after Elric quickly gave him a task after telling him he could work.
Now looking at the eager audience In Front of him, Davis couldn"t help but admire Elric"s thought process.
According to Elric, since there would soon be an influx of their total population, conflicts are bound to arise.
So, with this in mind, Elric put him in charge of "gradual education" a process by which, Davis while teaching them about wizards and their origins, would try and shape their worldview by giving them a common goal of advancing the wizard profession!
Luckily no one from the blue star was around. If not they would definitely shout "brainwashing!"
If fact, Elric also knew what he was doing could be called brainwashing, and since this small world is still in an undeveloped form unlike the main plane, Elric figured that due to this, the rate of information dissemination would be abysmal or even nonexistent thus allowing his "gradual education" plan to be successful.
Thinking of the importance Elric attached to this, Davis knew there was no room for mistakes.
Sighing slightly, Davis narrowed his eyes making his already serious face gloomier as he swore to himself to accomplish the task.
So with narrowed eyes, he faced the audience about to enact the "gradual education" plan.
