Chapter 89: Letter of Recommendation

"So you felt excruciating pain..." Vivian nodded in understanding. As if she had expected this outcome, Vivian asked, "How long did it take for you to pass out?"

"I didn't. I endured it all." Nathan shook his head, thinking, 'I have seen plenty of this scenario playing in those cultivation type novels. If they are experiencing pain, they will have to endure it and can't pass out. The moment they pass out, their body will explode. That's why I endured it to the best of my ability.'

To his surprise, Vivian was taken aback by the declaration. "You didn't pass out?"

"Yes. Is there a problem?" Nathan frowned.

"What is actually happening to your body when you ingest the core?" Vivian moved to the blackboard on the side and grabbed a picture of human anatomy.

She pointed at the mouth with her wooden stick. "The core will melt and enter your body in the form of Ena. As you already know, your body is a beacon, but at the same time, it's a container for this Ena.

"This is actually the special trait of a summoner, which differentiates between a summoner and a normal person. Only those who have the body that can contain Ena will become a summoner.

"After swallowing the core, the Ena will spread all over your body, trying to escape, but because everything has been sealed, the Ena can't go out.

"As a result, your body's metabolism will proceed in integrating this Ena into your body, trapping it forever.

"What makes you uncomfortable is your body working harder than usual, but everything is done automatically by your body.

"In that case, what will happen if you swallow a higher class core or multiple cores at once? Your body will have to work even harder, which will cause even more discomfort.

"After all, you have confirmed that you are not only unique, but also very strong. The principal and probably the Dragon King have heard about you and definitely would like to meet you.

"However, he puts out three conditions. As long as you can fulfill those three conditions, he will give you not only a drop of the draconian's blood but also a scale.

"First of all, you are going to complete a mission from him. He will give you the details himself. The second condition is allowing him to watch you perform the summoning ritual. He is probably trying to see the dragon you manage to summon.

"Last but not least, if you truly summon a dragon, he would like to ask for a drop of its blood."

Nathan couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows. "A drop of dragon's blood? Teacher..."

"I know. Those are his conditions. As for the third condition, I think you can talk to him personally. He is a fierce man, but he is a good guy that can be reasoned with. If you reject it, he won't do anything to you."

Nathan thought for a moment. He asked, "Did he mention anything about bringing someone else?"

"No. That means you are allowed to bring Selena with you if you want. Regarding Selena, I also want to warn you about something." Vivian's expression turned solemn. "Beware of the Ashton family. If there is someone who doesn't want Selena to succeed, it will be them. I don't think they're going to make their move soon, but they will definitely come."

"Are you going to persuade me to not approach her?"

"Why would I persuade you? I just want to warn you, so if you decide to do it, you are already aware of the risk. You are a smart person, so I will trust your judgment. And it seems that the principal is still sour about me getting you. He might end up getting Selena for himself, considering her hidden talent is enormous."

"Hahaha." Nathan nodded his head. "I understand. In that case, I'll make preparations to go there."
