Darius Supreme

Chapter 350 - 350



Darius hadn't failed to notice that his first batch of students all had above average, especially Anthony. He guessed it had to do with their chances of becoming his apprentice and how much effort he would have to put into grooming them. 

Still, with 65 Luck he had even more than Darla Brown, the former vice guildmaster of Andrato's Thieves Guild. It was clear that Anthony would have gone places even without Darius' guidance. 

However, now that his Luck had brought him here, Darius would make sure to give this tiger wings. 

Darius then focused on the five and asked. "Answer these three questions for me. First, why do you want to be a mage? Secondly, what would you do if you were to become a Grandmaster mage? Thirdly, which element do you consider to be the most powerful in Faust?" 

All five were surprised by these questions and shared uncertain looks, but before they had time to make heads or tails of them, Darius simply flicked a finger at Ash. "You go first and then continue from left to right." 

Ash paused to think about his answers for a bit before answering. "Well, I grew up watching how powerful and influential my father is, and I wish to succeed him, making him proud." 

"Erm, I would have eventually inherited my father's position back in and Listo to look after the territory, so if I were to become a Grandmaster mage, I would be using my skills and powers to ensure that law and order would be kept." 

"The most powerful element? I think it should be the Lightning element. It can shock people and create thunderstorms." 

Darius rubbed his chin with interest and gazed at Reina, who was next. The lass smiled as she answered in a sweet voice. 

"I want to be a mage because it'll increase my status, allowing me to decide my own future, instead of being controlled by my family." 

"If I became a Grandmaster, I would marry a handsome prince and explore the world together with him!" 

"Hm, the strongest element to me would be the Spirit element. Why throw fancy spells when you can just turn your enemy into an idiot?" 

Darius chuckled and focused on the lanky Jonathan. 

"I want to be a mage to acquire power, enough power so that I can do whatever I want and no one can stop me!" 

"If I became Grandmaster, I would establish my own power and use my strength to grow it! Then I would rule as far as the eye can see and my power can reach!" 

"The strongest element will always be the Fire element! No matter what, anything and everything in this world exist as fuel to be burned to ashes by flame!" 

Darius' eyes flashed as he listened to the young child's grand ambition. He didn't mind them and it had allowed him to an interesting thing about him. 

Darius then focused on the simple-looking James. 

"I want to become a mage because it seems interesting." 

"If I became a Grandmaster, I would protect Andrato for as long as I live, and also work with you, Master, to pay you back for giving me this chance." 

"The most powerful element? Darkness, I guess. Darkness devours everything, light, power, life… I believe that at the end of the world there lies eternal darkness." 

Darius was impressed by James. The boy was the most simple looking and had a slightly weird mannerism, but he seemed to be the most mature and insightful so far. 

Darius then focused on his most talented apprentice-in-training, Anthony. 

"I wish to become a mage to understand the truth of this world, why we were created, how the elements came into existence, how they function, and how to manipulate them beyond conventional means." 

"If I became a Grandmaster, I would simply focus on protecting what is mine, and spend the rest of time researching deeper into the truth of the world and observe everything else." 

"The strongest element? Space and Time. Although the two are often treated separately, I believe they exist on the same wavelength." 

Once all five students had stated their opinions, Darius sifted through their answers and computed them with the wealth of knowledge he had acquired for himself before coming up with a suitable plan. 

He then took out five Awakening Scrolls and let them float into the laps of the five lucky children with his Telekinesis. Before they could use them, Darius spoke. 

"I've made these Awakening Scrolls for you. Unlike the ones you might know, these ones will bless you with an almost perfect talent for magic as well as the ability to start with 5 elements of your choosing, making them your true affinities." 

"Mind you, this will not affect the number of new elements you will awaken after climbing a stage. Before you use these scrolls, I will tell you my conclusion based on your answers." 

Darius started from left to right, pointing at Ash. "You will awaken the following elements, Gravity, Water, Earth, Life, and Lightning. Your main element will be Lightning while your secondary will be Earth." 

"Your personality leans towards protecting the territory you are in charge of and you possess the heart of a leader. Lightning to pass judgment on your enemies and Earth to form a bastion of defense for your lands." 

He then pointed to Reina. "You will awaken Water, Light, Wind, Wood, and Spirit. Your main element will be Spirit and your secondary Wind." 

"Your personality leans towards independence and whimsical fantasy, your heart being that of an explorer and adventurer. Spirit to control the hidden side of the world around you and Wind to allow you to float through the world freely like a butterfly." 

Darius gazed at Jonathan. "You will awaken Death, Gravity, Metal, Explosion, and Fire. Your main element will be Fire and your secondary Death." 

"After all, your personality leans towards absolute control and a desire for power. You have the heart of a conqueror, so your main tool will be Fire to raze down the establishments of your enemies and Death to build your own loyal army." 

Darius then moved to James. "You will awaken Poison, Psychic, Ice, Sound, and Dark. Your primary element will be the Dark and your secondary Sound." 

"Your personality strikes me as calm and eccentric, hard to grasp and hard to unravel. Maintaining an air of mystery is key, especially since your looks are enough to make you inconspicuous." 

"Being overt and noticeable is not your path, you're much better suited to remain in the shadow, invisible, intangible, and silent." 

Darius then focused on Anthony, his smile widening when looking at the lad.
