章 614: Daniel’s Torment - 04

Daniel ignored the trailing admirers and arrived at the waiting area, where the school had arranged for examinees to meet their parents or guardians. It seemed the determined ladies knew exactly where he was headed, some even adjusting their appearance to seem more presentable, perhaps hoping to appear... more motherly.

Inside the waiting area, where children who had completed their exams were gathered, Daniel noted a bustling crowd.

Many were talking with the children, aiming to recruit them. Among those present, he observed three distinct groups: representatives from various mage families scouting new talent, parents there to congratulate their children, and other guardians negotiating with mage families to secure the best benefits for their children in exchange for service.
