Chapter 81: Anne

"We weren't able to talk enough previously due to Henry. Can we talk now?" William smiled.

"Hmm," Amelia hesitated, however, she eventually agreed with a reluctant expression.

"You don't have to force yourself if you don't want to..." William spoke with a bitter smile on his face.

"No, wait, we can talk." A small blush formed on her face while she looked at the floor with shyness, completely unlike her personality just a while ago.

William's eyes lit up when he heard this as the two went away with a certain amount of distance to each other. Amelia's cheeks were shaded in pink blush as they walked, which was very much noticed by William.

"Mother, it looks like I can finally get you a bride..." he muttered to himself while looking up at the sky, his golden eyes filled with reminiscences.

However, right beside him, Angel was also traveling silently, while silently staring at Amelia.

William looked at these with his eyebrows raised. "I guess I will have a handful soon," he thought to himself with a weird sigh.

Aur looked at these with a casual shrug of his shoulder.

Soon, the evaluation ended, and the results came out soon. Although William was not present, everyone already knew that he would score first, so nobody complained. As a matter of fact, he did become first.

While Aur was at the bottom of the tenth.

Although his cultivation was good and his combat power was also good, there were many individuals better than Aur, at least in spells.

So Aur getting the rankings of barely tenth was still acceptable to him.

Aur walked out of the place with a vial in his hand. Looking at it, he couldn't help but sigh in pity.

"If I had more strength, I might have been able to beat them, but then..." his crimson eyes narrowed.

Suddenly, his ears twitched as he heard a familiar voice.

"Brother Aur, wait." Anne's breathing was ragged as she looked at him with a small blush on her face.

"Hmm?" Aur frowned.

"Brother Aur, I would like to invite you to a party that we will be organizing. Will you please come as well?" Anne said with a smile on her face.

"I am not interested in parties." Aur simply shook his head while glancing at her.

Anne was a little stunned.

"The party is a private one. As you know, me and Leo have just dated with each other, and in celebration of that, we are organizing a party for some of our friends, and you are one of our friends. So please, Aur, come to the party." Anne said shyly as she looked at the floor.

Aur expressionlessly looked at Anne and thought about something.

"Yes, young master." Lucy blushed as she went away, her bountiful figure moving up and down as she disappeared from Aur's vision.

Aur shook his head with a sigh. "I gotta admit, the academy knows our preferences quite well."

He mused as he looked at the receding figure of Lucy. Although they might be spies planted by the academy, they were quite pleasing to look at, and they were all curvy in the right places.

Thinking of this, Aur snickered. "I wonder who chose this woman to be assigned to us; he or she is definitely a person of culture."

Aur returned to his room and took out a vial from his pocket, which contained a golden liquid inside.

This was the special reward he had received for coming out in the 10th position in the ranking. In fact, the others also received a similar portion for all those who could rank from fourth to tenth, although the top three had more lucrative rewards with the golden vial as well. However, the main reward was, after all, the golden vial.

Thinking of this, Aur sighed. He wanted to get this reward quite badly, although he might not be rewarded with mana crystals or such like the people who ranked higher than him, but he had no use for mana crystals currently.

"Muscle system," Aur said in a practiced voice as a thin blue panel appeared right in front of his eyes.

Seeing the almost half-filled storage space, Aur couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. After all, the entire space was pretty much filled with mana crystals only right now.

"Now it's time to consume the vial." He muttered with a strange excitement coursing in his veins.

These golden vials had the name of "body-strengthening elixir." As the name suggests, it helped one to strengthen their body.

Aur opened the lid of the bottle and smelled it.

"There is no smell." Aur thought as he directly drank the entire vial in one go without a shred of hesitation.
