[Chapter 314 Comnts.]
[Keltic_Spirit: Ohhh, excitent]
…
"Climbing the mountain?" Serena widened her eyes in shock. Compared to others, she was the weakest in terms of physical abilities. If Theo really asked her to climb the mountain, she would probably fail.
anwhile, Baltazar smiled weirdly while asking, "I'm not sure if I follow you here."
"I'm asking you, who should know about it." Theo's expression remained unchanged as if he had figured out who Baltazar was.
"So our first assignnt is to climb the mountain?" Lancelot frowned. Even he would have a hard ti climbing that mountain.
On the other hand, Baltazar simply asked, "I'm not sure. All I know is how to serve the family. I don't pay attention to the ti it takes to climb the mountain. If you're talking about 2,000 ters, then I guess it's possible, logically speaking."
Theo snapped his fingers as if he had been waiting for this answer. "Serving the family, huh? Not the patriarch or the matriarch? Despite putting the matriarch in a high position, you are contradicting yourself, Baltazar… No, should I say, the Patriarch of the Moon Clan… I don't know your na, by the way."
"What?" The trio widened their eyes in shock.
Baltazar looked at Theo with a shocked expression. However, after a while, his expression lted as if he was aware that playing dumb was not only wasting their ti but also futile.
Baltazar smiled wryly. "It seems that I can't really fool Teacher Theo."
"!!!" The trio turned to Baltazar with a dumbfounded expression. They had never thought that they had been talking with one of the peak masters of the Spirit World, the Ancient Spirit that was closest to the moon, the Raging Moon Patriarch.
Baltazar said, "Let formally introduce myself once again. I am indeed the current patriarch of the Moon Clan, an ancient spirit, Dantalian. It's a pleasure to et you."
Theo looked at Baltazar, now Dantalian, with a calm expression. Despite having such a high ranking status, he was still much stronger than him in the past.
Now that Dantalian had confird Theo's guess, the trio panicked. They wondered if Dantalian would hold a grudge against them since they treated him like a normal butler.
anwhile, Dantalian added, "Still, if you want to know the mission, you need to go to the matriarch. It's not who is currently handling the family's affairs. It's her. I'm not lying about that."
Theo glanced at the kids, indirectly implying he should answer his previous question.
"Regarding the trial, they can be arranged. As for the ti it takes, I'm not sure either. That depends on what you're planning to do, Mr. Theo."
Theo thought for a mont and said, "If any of you manage to reach the top within five days without using your essence, I'll give you ten additional points. If you have to rely on your essence, I'll be giving you only one point. This test is not about physical ability anyway."
"What?" The students never expected Theo would be so ruthless. They wondered if they had made a big mistake in angering Theo in the last test.
anwhile, Dantalian noticed Theo's unique choice of words. He couldn't help but say, "Not a test about physical ability, huh? I'm impressed. I have never seen soone like you.
"While I can't claim myself to be the moon, I can still say that I'm the closest person to the moon. At the sa ti, your existence feels like sothing much greater than the moon itself."
"!!!" The students were amazed that their teacher got such huge praise from Dantalian.
On the other hand, Theo couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows as if his words had touched his existence.
In his original world, he had surpassed the realm of mythical and reached the realm that only several people could enter. It was the realm of singularity.
Since he compared himself with the moon, the only equivalent thing that could be called a singularity in outer space was a black hole.
That was why Theo said, "It's nothing that special."
"Nothing special?" Dantalian pondered for a mont before laughing. "Hahaha. I see. You can think of it that way."
The students were confused about what they were talking about, but Dantalian suddenly turned to them and said, "You guys are indeed so lucky to have him as your teacher."
Other students had been telling them how special Theo was, especially the judgnt from other powerful figures.
And this ti, they experienced it themselves.
As they spoke, the bird had landed at the bottom of the mountain.
They startled people, but the bird simply spread its wings to stop people from coming or disturbing them.
Dantalian looked up and said, "If Teacher Theo wants to climb the mountain, I, of course, won't reject you. It seems that I'll be having soone to talk to during the climb."
The students gulped down. Now that they were standing at the bottom, they could finally understand the monstrosity of this mountain.
"Are we really going to do this?" Serena felt her legs sore before even climbing.
"It's up to you, but this is a task that I need to accomplish." Jayden loosened up his shirt to be more comfortable since it would be a tiring climb.
anwhile, Lancelot clenched his hands into fists, determined to finish the climb. He thought this must be related to the progress that would put him in the sa place as the others.
What they didn't realize was that Theo wanted them to notice the sa thing. And this mountain could help him with this task.
"If you are ready, you can go. I won't bother looking at you guys, so you can go at your own pace. If you choose to give up, just shout my na and I'll bring you to the top," explained Theo. "Without further ado, you may start climbing. We don't have a lot of ti to spend in this world." Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire
Dantalian extended his hand. "Please."
Theo nodded as both of them took the first step.
