Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 775 - Reward

Emery was taken aback by what he just heard. He was actually not sure why he was being awarded, but the queen sort of insisted her way through by saying he should really give himself more credit.

An acolyte from the privileged class, who was willing to be involved in their matter, was to be complemented with.

That's what the Oroboros Queen last said, before she left Emery with the siblings.

As Silva walked toward him, Emery, who was still not used to seeing her current appearance, couldn't help but get a little nervous.

With an apologetic look on her face, Silva said, "I am sorry, Emery. This is the best I can do." She smiled wryly. "My mother is set on not letting you back yet. I hope you understand."

"It's alright, Silva. I understand and thank you for your help."

Silence then fell between them, as they looked at each other. The two couldn't help but be awkward with each other.

Fortunately, it was at this moment that Vizla approached and patted Emery's back. "Alright, Emery. I genuinely enjoy our time together, so you should find me if you like to have a spar again. You can also go to me if you want to blow some steam off, if you know what I mean." He winked.

Emery agreed to Vizla's offer for another fight, while wisely ignoring the man's last sentence. Deliberately taking no notice of his sister's glare, Vizla patted Emery's shoulder once again, before leaving the two of them alone.

The moment Vizla disappeared from the hall, the fierce look on Silva's face immediately disappeared and was replaced by nervousness. Even though Emery also looked as nervous as she was, he couldn't help but be spellbound by her because it was just something she didn't usually do.

Silva also seemed to realize this, as she quickly turned her face away. She then beckoned him to come with her, something about the reward the queen just said.

The two walked out of the palace and Emery saw a flying vehicle waiting for them. They quickly entered it along with the two magus, who drove the vehicle for them.

"I am sure you are going to like this, Emery." Silva said after she took her seat in the vehicle.

A confused look appeared on Emery's face. "What is it? Where are you taking me?"

"Not telling." Silva cheekily smiled. "It's a surprise, after all."

Emery saw how she seemed to be in a good mood and couldn't hold himself from smiling. It was as if all the things that happened on the island had passed by and her worry had been completely lifted off.

Naturally, he was happy to see her happy.

Alas, Emery didn't realize his next words would change her expression again,

"Silva, about the message to send to the academy..."

Upon hearing that, the girl's expression distorted slightly, before returning to calmness a moment later. Still, she reached for her spatial ring and took out a small scroll before giving it to Emery.

"Here, you can write what you want and we will send it to the academy," said Silva calmly.

"Thank you, Silva."

He was glad that he could finally send some news, as the message was mainly to no other than Klea.

[I am safe and will get back soon. I'm sorry for making you worried - Emery]

To ensure the contents of the message were as her mother had ordered him to, Silva opened the scroll and checked it after Emery gave it to her. Looking at the rows of sentences written inside, she couldn't help but click her tongue.

Silva lifted his eyes from the scroll and looked at Emery, as if she was looking at a hopeless person. "You… are really bad at this, aren't you?" The girl sighed when she looked at the confused look on his face. "You should add that you miss her, and at least say that you are well."

Hearing that, Emery realized what she meant. "Aah...? No... I don't think that's necessary"

Silva stared at the young man sitting in front of her silently. For a moment, she couldn't help but wonder why she could fall for him. "...Yeah. Like I said, you are bad at this. Like, really bad."

After rolling and binding the scroll again, she quickly stored it inside her spatial ring, while also not forgetting to assure Emery that she would definitely deliver it over to the academy.

"But I haven't even told who it is for..." Emery said.

Silva glanced at Emery as if he was an idiot. "Huh! I got it… I am not stupid, of course I know who it is for, Cleopatra of the elite class, Earth Planet 1002, right?"

"Err…" An awkward expression was visible on his face. "Yeah."

"As I said earlier, I got it."

The letter Emery wrote for Klea had apparently made the awkward atmosphere surrounding them disappear. They finally were able to talk comfortably with each other like in the past.

As the two of them got lost in their conversation, they didn't realize their vehicle had arrived at a complex that lay in the middle of a massive forest. Even though it did not look glamorous, like the palace or magnificent like the prison, the place was tightly guarded. Emery could vaguely see many armed people patrolling around the area.

The vehicle stopped right above a wide clearing and slowly made its way towards the ground. When it finally landed steadily, Emery and Silva quickly walked out and were welcomed by a dozen people in white coats waiting for them.

Surprisingly, Emery recognized one of the figures standing before them. A short green-skinned figure with two bulging eyes and a wide mouth. The other party also seemed to recognize him, as he flashed a grin at him.

"Wolf boy, finally we meet again."

"Mr Bob! You are here!"

The figure Emery recognized was no one else but Bob the Frog whom he met at the gene store in Zodiac City.

"What are... I mean, what is this place?"

Bob laughed when he saw the confusion on his face. "Hahaha, wolf boy, this is the Oroboros gene researk kenter!"

After the words entered Emery's ears, it took him a second to understand what Bob's words implied. Upon realizing it, he turned to Silva and saw the girl giving him a smile and said "Research center."

"That's right. We hope to fix that weird gene of yours."

Needless to say, Emery was elated when he heard this piece of news. His wolf gene had always been a problem for a long time and Emery had no way of dealing with it, as he didn't have either the resources or the help to do so.

But now, there was a chance that this dilemma of his would soon be resolved once and for all. Furthermore, knowing that Bob the Frog was the one who helped him last time, Emery certainly couldn't help but turn hopeful.

"Kome, kome!" Bob said excitedly. "I kan't wait to start."

Under the lead of the group of researchers, Emery and Silva entered the main building of the complex. They walked through the corridor and stopped at the main room, where Emery could see various kinds of instruments and apparatus that he had no idea what they were for.

There, Emery was prepared for the operation, as a dozen people in white coats fiddled with the equipment and checked his overall condition. He watched dozens of tubes filled with liquid with different colors and several instruments placed nearby, ready to be injected to him.

Bob approached Emery and smiled. "Let's see how mukh your genes have khanged since the last time we met."
