章 602: 22

 As Cross told them of what he had witness numerous time, the Mages look at one another before sighing. While they wish to have their own son marry Cross' sole daughter, none of their sons is close in term of age, while showing little talents in magic.

 They can become a Zero Circle Mage but above that, it would be very hard. It is impossible to compete with the prodigy. And the fact the boy is from a commoner family made it so they can influence him even more. Increasing the influence of Cross and those close to him.

 "I wonder how long it will take him to become a 1st Circle Mage?" one of the Mages mused. The others soon followed. After all, it is interesting to think of such thing.

 "I bet, he will become one in a year." one of the recent Mages, who become one a month before Cross' eldest son said.

 "Hhmm, I think maybe 6 month or so." another one said, deciding to bet dangerously.
