Chapter 69 Returning to Millfall

Chapter 69 Returning to Millfall

"Eh? Are you sure?" Julian asks in a surprised tone.

As a teacher, he had talked to each of his students at the time of the academy about their future. But what he had done back then was something to open the minds of young people to the possibilities available to them, not something with a definitive purpose of making them choose a path.

The answer Vicente had given him at the time had not worried Julian, and he had merely thought it was a boy's childish desire.

But now, hearing a similar response from Vicente, Julian couldn't help but be surprised to see someone with so much potential say those words.

"Yes, I believe the academic path Professor Julian believes is good is indeed necessary and useful for people who do not know what they want from their lives. But I know what I want and need to do, so I don't see myself returning to academic life." Vicente gave a complete answer to this man, knowing that as a teacher, Julian would insist on convincing him otherwise if he did not have a good motivation.

One could learn anywhere, as long as one had interest and access to materials.

What academies and colleges did was help young people, uncertain about what to do, organize their time, and give them material to work with. Following this, one would eventually find their way or at least acquire a primary activity to support oneself, something essential for oneself and society.

But investing his time in a place like the Seidel Magic College could be a waste of time and resources for someone who knew what they wanted and had the methods to achieve it.

Julian knew that as a merchant, Vicente had a way to support himself and grow, for he had inherited not only his father's business but all the knowledge Andrew had passed on to him over 11 years. When he heard the answer from this young black-haired man, he didn't think it was an answer from someone trying to run away from responsibility.

But he had to insist a little before giving up!

"Are you sure about that, Vicente? I didn't want to have to say much because I'd rather you try to get into the Seidel Magical College out of your ambition. But your old friend Ian has almost got a place at that institution.

From what I hear, he has recently awakened his magical abilities. With his good grades at the Saltstar City Royal Academy, he has a good chance of getting a place at the kingdom's college." Julian said, somewhat surprising Vicente and Rory, who hadn't heard from Ian in quite a while.

"Is that true?" Rory asked as a smile formed on his face.

Julian looked at Rory and saw the green gem on this young man's forehead, which was striking him as much as the shape of Vicente's gem. He said. "Yes, I was lucky enough to meet with his older sister in Ironcrest and hear about his situation.

He has done very well in his journey at the Royal Academy. As for his form and magical talent, unfortunately, when I spoke to his sister, he had not yet awakened his powers."

"I see..."

"Good for him." Vicente smiled, happy for his friend. "If fate has something for us, we will see Ian again. But I don't intend to enter the Seidel Magical College just because of him.

I'm sorry, Professor, I'll have to disappoint you about that. But thank you for caring and also telling us about Ian."

As he felt Vicente directing him towards the exit of the house, Julian sighed in defeat, feeling he could only give up.

"If you don't intend to study further to develop your powers, what will you do, Vicente? I at least want to know where the most talented young man the village had given birth will go." Said Julian, totally disregarding the color of Rory's Magic Gem.

The kind of talent he was referring to was not concerning magical practice but basic knowledge and the rational ability to analyze problems and find solutions. noVE/lb.In

This kind of talent would differentiate the magician who, for example, would create new spells and fantastic things from the magician who would only use these things to get stronger and has more practicality in their lives.

Rory might have the talent for magical cultivation. Still, Vicente certainly had the greatest potential to revolutionize anything in this world between the two.

Vicente said with a smile. "I will take my father's business to a level he never dreamed possible. I will provide the best foundation for my younger sister and one day bring honor to the Fuller name. I will die satisfied if I can accomplish only that, Professor."

On hearing this reply, Julian was silent, understanding what Vicente meant, imagining this young man had suffered greatly from the death of his parents.

This young man was very talented, but his life had so much tragedy. Perhaps it would be better if he did not develop to the limit. Otherwise, catastrophic things could be created by his hands!

"I see... Well, I hope you and Nina will be alright. Millfall is not a bad place to live." With those words, Julian took his leave, hearing from Vicente that they would still meet to talk about that necklace one day, but it wasn't time for that to happen yet.

"Ian's going to pursue a career within the royal family, huh?" Rory muttered next to Vicente as the two watched Julian disappear down that street.

"I didn't expect that." Vicente grinned, wondering what that fellow was up to. "Anyway, I hope he succeeds in his purposes. If we meet him in the world one day, we'll drink together."

"Yes, perhaps he will introduce us to some royalty girls... Would you like to taste a princess, Vice?" Rory smiled as he looked at his friend.

"You want to kill us..." Vicente laughed, but internally, he couldn't help but imagine the beautiful princesses of Seidel, who were said to be the most beautiful young women in the state.

He was practically an adult by local standards, and without the hormonal pattern of a child, something that had made him feel less desire for certain things for years, he was slowly returning to have worldly desires...

Too bad he didn't have much time to think about it for the moment, nor did he know anyone who interested him.

But like Rory, he had impure thoughts and a desire to be with beautiful young women, like the famous princesses.

"We'll think about it later. Ian should be fine. It's us who might not get far if we're not careful, my friend." He said before taking Nina in his arms again and getting into his carriage with Rory and Eve.

With that, when it was almost early evening in this part of Scott Province, three carriages and four wagons departed from Martell Village with the Fuller family group!
