"You tell me how that's possible first," Maximus questioned.

"How would I know? Wait, did he somehow know about the number I bet?"

"No, that would not be feasible since he is just a mere wizard apprentice; it should not be possible," he shook his head.

"Then how?"

"Probably because he wanted to take his chance. However, he didn't fall for a brat's trick like the others, and bet all his fortune on it." Maximus said with a chuckle.

Amelia trembled with sheathing rage when she heard this.

"I will come back for him," she muttered, her gaze turning ruthless as she hurriedly left.

Seeing Amelia's fleeting figure, Maximus didn't utter a single word as he casually sat and started to drink the coffee he had just brewed.

…

Aur quickly returned to the academy directly without wandering around too much.

"How interesting that by just walking outside for a short time I have offended two powerful people already," Aur thought with an amused expression.

He didn't really care about a bratty girl like Amelia. However, the mysterious man who sent a tier-one wizard to him was a mysterious person for Aur.

And Aur hated unknown people.

Aur wasn't afraid of trouble, but why should he get into unnecessary trouble for no reason?

There were many options for him to avoid all these troubles.

His face gradually morphed into a smile. "I will remain in seclusion for the entire year."

Aur chose the simplest option, to avoid trouble that these children were riling up.

Even Amelia couldn't do anything inside the academy and if that mysterious person were strong, he would have directly pursued Aur to the academy, but he didn't, which meant that Aur was completely safe if he remained in seclusion.

"So it is decided then…" He had enough continuous supply of resources, and the academy also gave them enough resources to cultivate — about 7 low-grade mana crystals per day, which was a nice amount for sure.

Although Aur could barely make it into the academy's end of the month Top 10, the resources he gained from the academy daily increased an insane amount.

From five low-grade mana crystals to seven, that was more than half the percentage increase in it.

With his other wealth as well from the deal, Aur had plenty to luxuriously spend on his own training.

"But first, let's see how this spell works." He muttered, taking out the jar which contained the circle inside it.

He opened the jar and touched it, dropping a small drop of blood.

The instant the blood made contact with the spell, it instantly moved towards him, entering his body and into the mental space quickly.

In his mental space, the colourless mana was all still about thirty per cent done to filling up his mental space.

And there were around three spells floating in his mental space as well.

Now another entered, joining the other floating spell around his mental space as well.

Except for the golden spell which was attached to a thin string in his mental space right located right at the centre of the mental space. The other three spells all rotated as if they were a galaxy on their own.

Aur counted his spell.

"My tier one spell: Wizard's Hand for attacking the elemental master is also an attack spell. However, it can be used for defence as well. Then I have another tier one movement type spell: Ten Leap spell which increases my speed to a terrifying number. And the last…"

Aur looked at the floating spell that was emitting blue light with a strange expression.

"Tier one: Turtle's Shell."

Aur's expression turned strange. As the name suggested, it granted him the ability to have a turtle-like defence. And with the spell that he got from Hanma, which was also a defence type spell: the Rock Skin spell.

Two spells that were rare since the defensive spell was rare, it could be said that Aur had hit it big.

Unfortunately, unless he got the blueprint for the turtle's shell spell, he wouldn't be able to upgrade it at all.

All spells started at tier one. As one progressed, they would use various materials to upgrade the spell with them.

However, for one to upgrade most of the spell, there was a crucial ingredient needed: mana itself.

For example, if one wanted to upgrade a tier one spell to tier two, one of the most important ingredients was always the green-coloured mana, the symbol of the tier two mages, usually.

So it was far beyond Aur's consideration for now because he was just a wizard apprentice; currently not even a tier one wizard. Not to mention upgrading a spell, he couldn't even use the full power of the spell itself with his colourless mana.

Thinking of this, Aur decisively sat in a meditative position and started to take in the mana from the surroundings simultaneously.

Not only that, but to boost himself, he took out two middle-grade mana crystals and used them to boost his speed by several times.

Just like that, Aur spent the entire time slowly cultivating in his dorm and cooped up in his room the entire time.

…

Amelia walked back and forth with a frown on her face. She was biting her nails while simultaneously waiting for something until, finally, a knock came on her door.

She hurriedly regained her composer and said in a cold tone, "Come in."

A servant girl hurriedly walked in and immediately bowed while handing her a file.

"Madam, I have gathered all the information about Aur that I could find."

Amelia nodded her head while taking the file and looked at the servant girl.

"Yes, miss."

She hurriedly scurried out of the place, leaving the cold mistress alone.

After she exited Amelia's room, the servant girl couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

"Luckily, nothing happened to me. Looks like that bitch has some other problems to take care of," she cursed silently while leaving.
