r nodded, ”probably you hid your talents, or some other reasons I do not know, but you are going to be my second disciple.

”Why do you think I want to? ” Josh asked.

”You don have a choice, the moment you took that test, Im sure that you were aware of the implications? ”

”Could this be a threat? ”

”Make of it whatever you want? ” Eleanor shrugged.

”You help me get stronger, and I help you win all the tournaments. We have a deal. ” Josh nodded.

”What makes you think you have the capabilities? ”

”What are the odds of any other school having a student with an S-rank Quadra-affinity? ”

”You have a point there. ” Eleanor nodded, ”you
e going to be put in S-rank class, as you know S-rank students are not required to attend class unless they feel like it, so Im going to have more than enough time to tort- I mean mould you. ” Eleanor flashed a smile that brought shivers to Joshs spine.

”Im having a bad feeling about this. ” Josh voiced his concern.

”You should. ” Felicity said, a bittersweet smile appearing on her face.

”So, will I be staying in the school hostel? ” Josh asked Eleanor.

”You can come live with me. ” Eleanor replied.

”I will have to decline that offer, ” Josh shook his head, and continued, ”I want to live close to a friend of mine. ”

”Fine by me, ” Eleanor shrugged, and continued, ”what is the name of this friend? ”

”I didn get his last name, but I got his first name which is Nate and hes definitely going to live in the S-rank quarters. ”

”How are you so sure of that? ” Eleanor asked.

”He has the talents. ” Josh.

”Perhaps I should take more disciples, ” Eleanor whispered to herself, ”if they can take the heat that is, If thus boy cannot I will force him to. although the fire in his eyes is undeniable. ”

Eleanor nodded, and said, ”Felicity will take care of that. ”

Felicity merely nodded. Seeing her nod, Eleanor said, ”Now that all the formalities are done. You
e going to my quarters by noon tomorrow. ”

”Where is it? ” Josh asked.

”You can take that as a quest. Note, if you
e late or you don show up, Ill punish you. ” Eleanor said, and turned to Felicity, ”don assist him. ”

”Wouldn dream of it. ” Felicity replied with a playful smile on her face.

”Why can I just get directions or something? ” Josh asked.

”Because Its a test and part of your training. ” Eleanor replied.

”I see. ” Josh nodded, although not understanding how finding a house was supposed to be training.

”Guess well get going then. ” Felicity said, getting up from her seat.

”Come on. ” Felicity stretched out her hand for Josh to take it.

”You know, with the way you
e so eager to feel my touch, Itd be safe to assume you
e developing a crush on me. ” Josh said with a sly smile on his face.

Eleanor burst into a fit of laughter, and Felicity stared at Josh, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

”Not in your wildest dreams kid. ”

”Well see. ” Josh merely shrugged and took her hand.

The pair appeared hand in hand in a beautiful office, with books littered around, Josh admired with great curiosity, an hourglass with beautiful runic engravings that stood on a lone stool.

”Its beautiful. ” Josh suddenly said.

”What is? ” Felicity turned to see what he was talking about.

”That, ” Josh pointed at the treasure, Felicity followed his hand to look at what he was pointing at, ”Its a treasure right? ”

”Yes, it is. ” Felicity nodded.

”Its beautiful, you have an eye for beauty. ” Josh complimented with a smile.

Felicity chuckled and said, ”thanks. ”

”A pleasure. ” Josh smiled slyly.

”Take a seat. ” Felicity offered, as she sat on her chair.

”Thanks. ” Josh said, taking a seat.

”Give me a minute. ” Felicity said, putting her phone close to her ear and Josh merely nodded in reply.

”Is the entrance examination of that group over? ” Felicity asked the receiver.

”Alright then, did a certain Nate pass? ”

”He got into S-rank class? With his twin sister, I see. Do you have any knowledge of their background? ” At this moment, Josh leaned forward subtly.

”Interesting, I need you to leave the house beside his unoccupied. The kid I took will come to live there. ”

”Yes, Im teleporting there now. ” Felicity dropped her phone on her desk and stood up from her seat.

”Lets go. ” She stretched her hand to Josh, who gave it a light squeeze which she involuntarily returned.

Seeing the smug smile on Joshs face, Felicity said in an almost inaudible whisper, ”just who is this kid? ”
