"I'm more than willing to!" Grimm opened his eyes wide.
"Good. Then you'll be my third apprentice. The guy Varro is the second student I've accepted and before him, I have Deep Spring." Sorcerer Peranos's face looked heavy as he mentioned Deep Spring. "She's a good student, but she's alway on business and doesn't stay here."
Grimm rose up, approached Sorcerer Peranos and bowed to him in the most respectful manner.
"Master." Grimm didn't want to run the risk of being dismissed by saying a redundant word.

The famous First-Year Student Sorcery Test had come to a conclusion. Grimm was reclining leisurely on his bed in his dormitory. It was a luxury which he had been deprived of for 30 days.
"I finally have a future— a decent future! I've a mentor who's a sorcerer!" Grimm reinforced his grip on a random book in his hand. His eyes were determined.
Soon, Grimm jumped out of bed and was eager to experiment with the new samples he had collected during the test.
