Chapter 131 Accept?

There was a chance that they had the ability to obscure the truth much like they had with Cassarae's Favorability... but Sylas didn't want to bank on it.

There was a good chance that the trio of the Grimblades was even more powerful than them, and they definitely had a greater supporting cast around them as well.

Cassarae already knew of Sylas' situation, so she spoke first.

"Sylas and I live in the same area. We can come together first. Olivia, you know the location already. Morgan, I am not sure where you live, but you don't need to tell me. You're one of us now, so if you can, bring those you can to Veridian. I live in a town close by to the famous university. Sylas over here is one of their tenured professors."

Both Morgan and Olivia blinked in surprise, looking toward Sylas at the same time. Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

"Really? He's so young..." Morgan said with a breath.

The world didn't have a universal university ranking system, but every country had their own clear number one, and they all shared the same prestige.

Veridian was without a doubt the number one ranked university of the United Coalition of Terranova.

Olivia chuckled. "No wonder, everything makes sense now."

Sylas raised an eyebrow, but didn't pursue the line of questioning. Instead, he gave Cassarae a look that only she would take as his version of thanks. As for everyone else, it just looked like his normal, indifferent gaze.

"That location is quite far for me," Morgan replied honestly. "I live in the Celestial Republic, across the ocean."

The Celestial Republic was located in what had once been China before the Sixth Extinction. Without understanding what the situation would be like on the other side when they returned, this would, indeed, be tricky.

Cassarae leaned back, tapping her finger on her armrest. This was, indeed, a problem.

"Gregory, what do you think? Should we have Morgan stay put?" Cassarae asked.

Morgan sighed. "Honestly, I didn't expect to get strapped in like this to a bunch of youths like you all, but after I heard you were a professor as well, I thought that you would probably understand me the most."

"As well?" Sylas asked.

Morgan smiled. "I'm a professor at King. It seems we have more in common than I thought."

King was to Morgan's country what Veridian was to Sylas' own. It was no doubt at that top-tier echelon.

"Oh? What do you research?"

There seemed to be a glint in Morgan's eyes before he replied, as though he wanted to see through Sylas first.

"Psychology."

"That's a pretty broad response," Sylas replied. Though he said this, he remembered Morgan correcting Alex on his understanding of sociopaths when they first met. He hadn't thought much of it back then because it was semi-common language, but it seemed that there was more to it.

"You're right. I'm used to replying with that because it's what most people understand. You could say that I study neurodivergence."

"Mental illness?"

Morgan laughed. Sylas was, indeed, much like what he thought he would be.

"It does sound like a new, politically correct term. But no, I mean neurodivergence. And by that, I mean in the sense of people who seem to have superhuman mental capacities. Kind of like you."

Sylas shook his head. "I don't believe that I'm special enough to be categorized like that. My memory is a standard deviation better than most, as is my spatial awareness, but most of everything else is based on diligence."

"Mm, I didn't come to diagnose you, though I don't like that word. I believe that it has a negative connotation when it shouldn't. Either way, I will take your word for it. I only called you here to say thank you."

This time, Sylas was surprised. "... Why?"
