Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 1100 Opportunity

Unlike Emery, the dragon protégé had his own grand magus as a master to personally guide him. Not only that, but Emery once heard that Zach Talon even had more than one grand magus as a master guiding him.

This person, Lilith of the Dark Salamander, must be the one he brought to the Hyperion planet.

As if briefly assessing him, the grand magus nonchalantly looked at Emery for a moment.

"King Alduin has informed me about your situation; you will stay here with us to train," she sternly said. The way she said it made it seem as if it was an order he was not allowed to refuse.

Emery was momentarily stunned. "Elder, may I ask for how long?"

The grand magus threw a displeased glance at him. It was clear that she was unhappy with the question, but she still answered, "Until Zach no longer requires your assistance."

The grand magus responded with such weight, as if Emery himself had no say in the matter.

While he wished to train with the dragon protégé, he didn't know that he would have to spend the whole two months with them.

Emery glanced at Klea. He wanted to know what she thought of the matter.

However, before he could say a word, Magus Shena spoke first.

"Emery, I believe the king has something planned for you. And with Senior Lilith here, your safety will be guaranteed," the magus kindly advised.

The grand magus was clearly a little irritated, but she still said some words to convince him, "If you are worried about that blood-sucking Zenonia, she will not make trouble with you under my care. Moreover, I was also instructed to guide you in your progress."

Hearing the grand magus's words, Klea, who was previously reluctant, decided to approach Emery and held his hand.

"Emery, isn't this good news? There's finally a grand magus who can guide you," the Egyptian Queen spoke. Her lips formed a supportive smile, but he could tell that it was somewhat forced.

Emery knew that the grand magus couldn't force him to agree. However, he know that once he agreed, he would have to see it through until the very end.

He looked down at his hand. As he felt Klea's warmth, he was tempted to reject the offer. He wanted to stay with his current plan of training together with her, but at the same time…

Emery thought about the real threat that he would have to face in the near future, from Zenonia to the Nephilims, and he couldn't help but hesitate.

An offer to be guided by a grand magus and having the dragon protégé as a sparring partner was not something he could easily reject. However, these two months were definitely something he couldn't afford to waste, either.

He still needed to deepen his comprehension of the light element in the Light Institute and started on the body tempering potion he promised in the Apothecary Institute.

In the end, Emery carefully looked toward Zach and the grand magus before saying,

"My apologies, Elder. I'm very grateful for the offer, but I can't spend two months here as I have something else I need to do."

As Emery said his rejection, he politely bowed toward the grand magus to express both his gratitude and apology.

His answer pulled gazes of surprise and disbelief from everyone present. Even Klea, who was secretly hoping for Emery to reject the offer inside, didn't expect Emery to actually reject the grand magus.

In front of him, Grand Magus Lilith visibly became more annoyed and displeased with him. Still, Emery had no intention of changing his decision. He braved himself to express his gratitude one more time before finally excusing himself.

However, as he walked away, the dragon protégé quickly stopped him.

"Does being number one not matter to you!?"

Emery halted his steps and calmly answered, "It does."

Zach glared at him.

"You will not make it to number one without going past me," the dragon protégé sternly said. "Stay here, and if, by some miracle, you manage to defeat me, I will let you leave."

Hearing this, the grand magus next to him chuckled a little. "A wolf defeating a dragon… I'd like to see that."

As she said those words, her gaze looking at Emery became filled with mockery and amusement. It was clear that she didn't believe he had even the slightest chance of defeating the person she personally taught.

Those words once again stirred Emery's heart, and this was quickly realized by the girl next to him.

Emery once again felt a warm touch on his hand.

"This is a good deal, Emery. I also need to return to my master and continue my own training, so… defeat that worm quickly and come pick me up, agreed?" Klea said with a smile. However, unlike last time, it clearly looked more sincere.

She didn't even wait for Emery to answer before she jumped into the air and summoned her thunderbird. She then glanced toward Emery, still with the same smile on her face, before turning around and leaving.

Emery watched as she left before turning toward Magus Shena.

"Senior, I'd like to ask you for a favor…"

Before Emery could explain it to her, the female magus interrupted with a faint smile, "I am assigned to assist you. So yes, per your request, I will look after her until your training is done."

At this, Emery couldn't help but smile too. He was grateful to have such an understanding protector.

"Thank you, Senior."

With a confirming nod, Magus Shena left following the direction Klea left.

Now that the two were no longer present, Emery turned back to look at the remaining two. He once again bowed to the grand magus, this time to give his respects.

"Thank you for the opportunity, Elder."

The grand magus subtly nodded in approval.

"Good, now follow me."

Following her order, Emery and Zach followed her side-by-side as she walked toward the huge cave near the plain. Nonchalantly passing by the enormous dragon sitting near the entrance like a guard, she then proceeded to enter the cave.

The temperature inside the cave was extremely high, and at the same time, it was also rich in the spirit energy of fire and darkness. It took Emery a few seconds to realize that the huge cave was Zach's personal spirit cave.

As Emery silently observed his surroundings, the grand magus turned around and looked straight at him.

"All right. Let me see how strong you really are, young wolf."

With this, his new training finally started.
