Capítulo 16: Chapter 13
The three had completely different reactions after hearing what Arthur said.
Obviously Alice accepted instantly while clenching her fists without hiding her happiness, she had to hold on so as not to run to Arthur and hug him calling him her big brother.
For Alice this proposal meant more than just having an elder helping her training, the main reason for her happiness is that if she became a student under Arthur's wings they would spend much more time together.
Unlike Alice, the bald young man, Oliver maintained his composure of indifference as if Arthur's proposal didn't mean much to him, but this is only on the outside, inside Oliver understood that this could be his great chance to get a little closer to his goals, besides that the man in front of him even though he is only a novice elder can't be underestimated, he understood this after seeing his exhibition last night.
Looking at all the advantages and disadvantages, Oliver was ready to give his answer to Arthur.
"Elder, forgive me if my question is disrespectful, but aren't you that novice elder that everyone treats like a waste? It's okay that I'm at the bottom of the novice disciples' ranking, but what would an elder like you have to offer me? Again, I ask forgiveness, but I feel that I'm being cheated and it bothers me a lot".
Alice knew Arthur's bad reputation in the sect but she knew this was a false accusation, and she wouldn't care about the opinions of others since she could finally stand by him again, so she didn't think to question Arthur's motives for accepting them as students.
A boy who only had thoughts in training like Oliver never bothered to know about the things that happened in the sect, consequently he didn't really know about Arthur's "fame", his impression of Arthur was completely based on his "show" last night in his yard.
But Jack is different, despite being a weak kid he always understood that one of the most important things in this world is to have information, from the moment he entered the sect he always kept an eye on all kinds of news and collected information about many people, this information helped him to stay alive and avoid big problems in all these years.
It would be impossible for him not to know the infamous Novice Elder Arthur, any rumor about this man only underscored how pathetic he was.
"No need to apologize, I understand your concerns, but it would be a bit silly of you to judge my person based solely on rumors, so I propose that you accept me as a teacher for a week, in case I can't prove my competence to you during that time you can give up on me without any consequences, I promise."
Of course Arthur already expected this, it was for this reason that he visited each one of them the night before trying to put a point of doubt in their minds regarding his rumors as a failed elder, but it would be stupid to think that a person would accept to become his student without reluctance, for this reason Arthur found this alternative where the disciples could be more tranquil knowing that they had the option of giving up without any kind of retaliation, with this it would be up to Arthur to win the trust of these people during the period of a week.
Listening to Arthur's proposal, the young blond Jack analyzed for some time before accepting the proposal, Jack stayed satisfied with the terms.
Oliver was surprised to discover the rumors about Arthur but did not care much about it, after all, what he saw last night is not something a waste can do, so he accepted the proposal without thinking much.
"Okay, now that you're all in agreement, tell me a little bit about yourselves, your names, ages, dreams, fears and anything else you think is important."
