Picking up Girls With My System

Chapter 82 - Looking for Workers



Arthur thought the wyverns came to existence after the dragons were dead, but it turned out both species lived in the same period.

The diary stated wyverns were inferior to dragons, and that was something Arthur already knew.

“This is great. Now I can share some of these techniques with Kai.”

It had a lot of wyverns techniques, and Arthur read through them to see what would fit Kai the most.

The first thing he needed to do was to see what was Kai’s primary element. Harmony and the other teachers had done a test in all students, and Kai was supposed to be a water type mage.

although Arthur did not know if the mage attribute would be the same for the dragon techniques as well.

“I can only pray.”

The school was getting emptier as the students finished their classes and went back to their dorms.

Kai, though, went to Arthur’s office, excited about the training.

He knocked on the door, and a voice came from the room, “come in.”

Arthur sat behind his desk, occupied with lots of papers. He was doing the layout for the recreation area he thought of building. It was a good idea, especially now that the students would be stressed because of the upcoming tournament.

“Oh, it’s you, Kai.” Arthur put all the papers down and looked at Kai.

“Busy taking care of the school? You are doing an amazing job so far. Everyone likes you, even that punk Theo.”

Kai was being sincere when saying that, and it made Arthur smile.

It was an awesome sensation to have one’s work recognized.

“Thanks, anyway. We should get moving.” Arthur said as he got up from his chair.

Arthur left the office, and Kai followed closely behind, excited about the training.

They went to a part of the island not that far, yet with no one around. Arthur wanted to go to the lake as it was a cool place for the training, but almost all teachers used that place, so the students already knew about it, and went there to swim and chill.

But Arthur was almost sure Kai was of the water element, so he chose a place with water nearby. It was a good thing water was abundant on an island.

A small river was more than enough for the training.

“Look here, Kai.”

Arthur showed the pages of that diary that had the wyvern techniques, and Kai was shocked to see that.

“There’ are a lot of things there. Can I learn them?”

“You can, and you’ll. If I’m not mistaken, your attribute is water, right?”

“Correct.”

“The techniques are divided according to their element. Let’s focus first on the water ones to see if your ‘dragon element’ is indeed water, too.” Arthur said, scrolling the pages, looking for the water section.

Kai felt that what Arthur said made sense. The first technique for the wyvern was like the one Arthur had, the Dragon’s Fire body.

It was called Wyvern’s Water Body. A weaker version destined for Wyverns.

“You need to start with this one, and after reaching a certain mastery, we can move to the next techniques.”

Arthur show it to Kai, who read everything carefully to not miss a single thing. It was just like absorbing the mana from the atmosphere, but Kai would have to focus on the water itself and absorb its essence.

That was way harder, so it would take him a while to get there.

“You should train near a water source. There isn’t much I can help you with, unfortunately.” Arthur said.

He tried to explain the process by sharing his experience when absorbing the sunlight. It would be different for Kai, but at least that gave him a sense of direction.

“Well, I’ll leave you to your training. If you have questions, you can come and look for me.”

“Okay, thank you!”

Kai was grateful to have the chance to learn such rare techniques, and it was all because of Arthur. He would not let him down.

Arthur did not return to the school, but went to the village near the shore of the island.

The idea of the recreation area was almost done, but he still needed people to build, and the only place he could find such people was in the village.

He also had the idea of hiring Jack’s crew to help once they got there, but that would trap them in that island for too long, so Arthur was almost sure they would not accept that, only if he offered a lot of money, and he was not that rich at the moment.

With the help of his fire wings, Arthur got into the village in a few minutes. The people there were surprised to see someone flying with wings, and they already knew it was someone from the magic school.

All villagers respected everyone from Odemore, as these people were the ones that protected the island from attacks, and kept all the ‘normal people’ safe.

They instantly knew Arthur was someone special, and the gossip of a new president of the academy already went to the village, so they all linked the dots with ease.

Arthur was looking for people to work, so the first place he went was the inn to get information.

The place was packed with people, as it was already getting dark. People went there to drink after working all day.

Everyone gazed at the door as soon as it was opened, and a well-dressed youth entered it.

Arthur ignored any of that and went straight to the counter.

“Is the owner here?”

The lady behind a counter was surprised to see someone looking for the owner.

“Who wants to talk with him? I’m sorry, but he does not meet with anyone.”

“How about the president of the magic school? Do I qualify to talk with him?” Arthur said in a disdained tone.

“O-Of course, follow me, sir.”

The lady was sweating cold, and led Arthur to the inn’s back room.
