บท 158: Becoming Grade 1 Awakened Demigod

"I don't need credits. Pay me with your patience. It will double as your training."

Neo's face hardened.

An ominous premonition crept into his heart.

"How will I pay with my patience?"

"Stay outside of my office until I leave my office."

"If you can do that, I will help you in awakening your Time element."

"…Are you doing this because I stopped you from closing the door?"

"I wouldn't do something as petty as that."

Neo was exasperated.

Was everyone here petty?

He couldn't refuse the payment.

It was genuine, even if it was just to fuck him over.

"How can I know you won't leave through a backdoor?"

"There is no backdoor in my office."

"…Can I check?"

Professor Daniel didn't like Neo's attitude, but he stepped aside, and allowed him to enter.

The office was small and cozy with plenty of sunlight entering through the window.

Neo used the Darkness.
