The witch thought I am a Demon God-Chapter 541 - 316: Dismantling Thunder Dragon System and Recruiting Chino Kennedy_1
Ivita looked at Alabi, the latter overcome with embarrassment for not having learned how to summon a small water elemental.
Alabi said to Ivita in a low voice, "I’m sorry, teacher."
"I... I will certainly work hard. If a week is not enough, I will take a month to do it. Teacher, please believe in me."
The Hearthstone Witch had no qualms about kicking her while she was down, utterly oblivious to her discomfort and embarrassment. "You may simply lack the talent for magic. Ordinary people are just ordinary people, they can’t become wizards."
"Talent is everything, that’s the harsh reality of this world. Effort only counts if you have talent!"
Juno, hiding behind the Hearthstone Witch, made a face at the despondent Alabi.
Ivita subconsciously checked Alabi with her spirit vision. If she truly was ordinary, forcing her to learn magic would be a form of torture.
Surprisingly, there was a faint spiritual glow of thunder magic within Alabi.
In front of the manor, Ivita frowned slightly, but said nothing.
Originally, she had her suspicions about the identities of Alabi and Juno. Now that Alabi suddenly displayed magical talent, it was even more unexpected.
Ivita subtly glanced at the two of them. All she needed was to quickly train an official wizard, as long as they met the requirements.
A typical witch may take dozens to hundreds of years to advance, so if Ivita wanted to quickly fulfil the conditions to become a Great Wizard, she would need to choose disciples who were unique and special.
Therefore, in some respects, Alabi and Juno, the two students with secrets, were more suitable for Ivita at this moment.
Having decided to officially take them as her disciples, Ivita started to take things more seriously.
Ivita said with indifference, "Juno, you can move on to the next stage now."
Juno was ecstatic, and looked down at Alabi with an air of triumph. At that moment, she felt like she had won a permanent victory over Alabi. Maybe Alabi was never a threat from the start.
Juno jumped for joy. "Thank you, teacher."
The Hearthstone Witch rolled her eyes. In her view, Ivita was too kind to her students. When she taught students, she would just throw them a few books for self-study.
After all, magic is something that relies on talent. Effort without talent will not yield significant results and serves more as a threshold test for talent.
Ivita continued to address Juno Fowall, "Starting from today, you will begin to formally study a part of Dragon Palace Magic."
"This magic book is a part of the true Dragon Palace Magic that I have extracted. It is about the summoning of Rust Lodging Crabs." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
"The spell is not difficult, because I have added three sections of constant magic power provided by me. In other words, it is a simpler spell than those at the Apprentice Wizard Level."
The Hearthstone Witch immediately realized that this was a welfare spell that Ivita had created for her students.
It was very easy. A part of the magic power was even provided by Ivita, but the effectiveness of the spell was comparable to that of the Apprentice Level magic. This was clearly a benefit.
Juno Fowall accepted the magic book and beamed at Ivita. "Thank you, teacher."
"Teacher, you are the best teacher in the entire world."
To Ivita’s surprise, Juno even rushed forward and gave her a hug.
The Hearthstone Witch’s gaze turned icy cold. In her view, this was a student challenging a teacher’s authority.
If it wasn’t for Ivita keeping quiet, she would have already punished this impudent girl.
Do you really think you can approach a teacher that easily under the title of the Demon God?
Ivita was startled for a moment. She wasn’t as neurotic as the Hearthstone Witch. Instead, she noticed Juno’s uncontrollable emotions. Simply put, Juno was naive and straightforward.
She had just been led astray in the past, influenced by bad company.
Ivita looked at Alabi, who was hanging her head in shame.
’The teacher must want to give up on her.’
’Maybe so, I heard wizards are ruthless, only caring about their own interests.’
Ivita spoke, and Alabi, who was hanging her head, shook a little. Alabi spoke up first: "I’m sorry, teacher. Please give me one more chance. Even if it means auditing your class, I don’t think I have reached the point of giving up. I promise I won’t disappoint you."
"I really love water magic, I..."
The Hearthstone Witch didn’t cease her carping, "I’ve said it multiple times, it really has nothing to do with effort. Witches who succeed with effort are geniuses in their own right, but they are considered late bloomers, understand?!"
"In the world, the truly talentless people, even with effort, will fail time and time again, completely destroying their blind self-confidence. And these people are the majority. Only geniuses assume that as long as one works hard, there will be rewards."
Ivita frowned, "What I want to say is, sometimes choice is more important than effort. Give up on water magic. However, perhaps you could learn thunder magic."
Ivita to the Hearthstone Witch, "Prepare pen and paper for me. I want to extract simple magic from the Thunder Dragon magic for her to learn."
The Hearthstone Witch was astonished, but she immediately summoned a portable carriage to prepare the materials for the magic book, following Ivita’s command.
To Alabi’s surprise, she had been overthinking, she had not been abandoned.
