The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 306 306 - A New Disciple?

"What did you just say?!"

The director shouted as he simply couldn't believe what he had just heard coming out of Aiden's mouth.

"I want to leave the academy next month and open a potion shop."

Aiden repeated slowly as he knew that such a reaction was to be expected.

"You're not joking, right?" The director asked, still doubtful.

He simply couldn't grasp how Aiden had changed plans so quickly, he had planned to learn two affinities and now he wanted to learn potions.

Just what was it that changed absolutely everything?

Aiden didn't know yet, but he could only hope that he would figure it out soon.

"I'm not, I can't tell you the reason as to why I need to do such a thing, however, I have no choice. I need to open that shop next month, or else, well…"

'Well… I'd die,' Aiden thought, admitting that it really was a sad moment.

The director of the magic academy took deep breaths as he heard that, calming himself down. He didn't want to have some sort of crazy reaction in front of Aiden.

"I see… so, you have no choice, huh?" The director muttered as he knew that was the case.

He saw how hesitant Aiden was acting which is why he didn't press on the answer.

"I guess I could help you, but remember that you will also have to help me."

The director made sure to remind Aiden that he also needed to teach him some things regarding his close-combat abilities.

"Look, here's what we can do, you will be learning alchemy here all day without any breaks for the whole month. Half the day will be me teaching you, and the rest of it will be you,

Aiden, teaching me, is that a good deal?" The director asked as he locked eyes with Aiden who seemed to be thinking.

'So, I would be living here, for a whole month. Actually, maybe there's someone else who could come here to learn from him. Wouldn't that be perfect?' Aiden thought thinking of

Garestsa who will be another student of his and at the same time the director.

"Would you be open to receiving another student in your house? I'm sure she would want to learn from someone like you," Aiden said as he knew that Garestsa wouldn't be refusing such an opportunity.

And, even if she wanted to refuse, she couldn't since it would break their whole agreement.

"Which student?" The director asked, intrigued.

"Are you serious? Are we really going to see the director of the magic academy? You're not lying to me, right?" Garestsa uttered as she looked directly into Aiden's eyes.

She wanted to make sure that this whole thing wouldn't be a trick because from what Aiden had told her, she would need to stop going to her lessons.

'He told me that I was going to learn with him and the director, but is that really possible? Would that man even accept?' Aiden thought, unsure.

"Stop worrying about every single thing and just let me take you there," Aiden said as he sighed.

Garestsa simply refused for Aiden to fly her up there, she remembered how she had reacted in the past, which was why she had decided that the two of them would be walking up the hill, instead of flying up there.

It wasn't anything bad, but still, it would have been a lot more efficient for her to agree for Aiden to take her up there.

They would have been moving at her much faster pace, however, it seemed that Garestsa was dead set on wasting time for the two of them.

***

A couple of minutes later, they had finally reached the top of the hill where the director had been patiently waiting for them.

"What took you so long?" The director asked, his question directed at Aiden.

He knew that he could fly so why was it that he had walked on the way here, just what had been the problem?

"It's because of her," he said as he pointed to Garestsa who was starting to realize that she should have accepted.

"Hm, alright, whatever I prepared everything for us to start learning alchemy while you were gone, both of you guys can follow me," he said as he started walking toward the forest.

'Why aren't we going inside his cabin?'

Aiden couldn't make sense of that, however, he didn't mind it that much as he continued walking behind the director.

A few moments later, they had arrived at the spot that the director had talked about earlier.

It wasn't too far away from the cabin as Aiden could still see it from here, albeit barely.

Right in front of them, there were too big cauldrons with many different ingredients on both sides of it.

"That's where both of you will be practicing," the director said as he pointed toward the two cauldrons that he had borrowed from the academy's grounds.

Aiden nodded as it seemed to make a lot of sense, however, it seemed that Garestsa wasn't of the same opinion as she raised her hand up high.

"Yes?" The director asked, wondering why she was putting her hand up.

"Why is it that we are practicing here and not in the academy?"

"It's because I don't want to deal with everyone seeing us. I want this to be private, that way it will be a lot more efficient.

"Also, you don't need to raise your hand every time that you need to tell me something. Just speak, I won't eat you alive," the director said in a joking manner.

Garestsa became all red hearing that.

"Oh, sorry I won't do it again, sir."

The director sighed as he continued his explanation, guiding both of them behind their respective cauldrons.

"Alright, I will now be teaching you the basics of making potions. Even if you know some of them already, make sure to listen to every single thing that I'm about to explain as it might help you tremendously."
