Chương 13: Titus
Freya's mind went towards what she could do with those 1000 Credits. She could pay her mother's hospital bill...and maybe buy food for her brother.
Freya deflated again. Completing these quests would take time and she wasn't even aware of how she could find someone with Actualized Magic, let alone make friends with them.
Even a normal magic user would show disdain towards her, somebody with Actualized Magic might just incinerate her if she tried to approach them.
A table filled to the edges with all kinds of food – Sweet, sour, salty, fishy, savoury...everything!
Freya drooled.
She shook her head to get out of the hypnotised state before anyone saw it.
Freya looked around to see if anyone else was left other than her.
Two other people.
A man with blue hair, and a black cloak wearing woman.
Her eyes fell on the young man with blue hair and eyes once again.
Freya was stunned for a moment. Someone with the same shade of eyes and hair!
One of the most peculiar things about people with the same shade throughout was that they were treated as the royalties. These people had the guaranteed potential to become powerful mages.
When Freya was born, her colouring had made her parents believe that she wouand become a witch. It would help them rise high in society, leave the slums for better lifestyles.
Her parents had brought her many books, toys and articles related to the magic that they could get their hands on.
And Freya fell in love with it all.
It had crushed her parents' heart when Freya was diagnosed as someone without a core. And it had crushed her more.
Little Freya had dreamed of being the best witch.
Her parents fixed their mindset faster than her.
They started giving her books about maths, science, and normal Literature.
And little Freya learned from them, but not in the way that her parents and teachers had hoped.
She started to compare and contrast the theories of magic with that of science and maths.
Used mathematics precision on magical runes.
She started to share her theories with anyone who would listen. There weren't many who wanted to though.
"Hey!"
Deep blue eyes covered her entire vision.
Freya blinked.
"You kept looking at me, and became depressed," the boy with the blue hair and eyes said.
Freya blushed. "Sorry. My mind was elsewhere."
"I thought so," he said. "I'm too handsome for pretty girls to get depressed about."
Freya laughed. "Maybe I am jealous of you for your beauty?"
He grinned. "I'm Titus."
"Freya."
"Bebeautiful name."
"Thank you!"
"You know, there will be more chances to prove yourself in the future," Titus said. Freya frowned in confusion. "This meeting was to see our luck and we kind of failed at it but I'm sure our luck would get better later on."
Freya gave him a sardonic smile. Luck. It was luck that made that rat bring the Application Letter to her. It was luck that made her look at the paper that wrapped the food. And it was luck that allowed her to get a System.
But it seemed that was where her luck ran out.
Freya wanted to ask Lady Luck one thing. If she was not going to get the job anyway, why did Lady Luck even give her the good luck?
Did the goddess find amusement in her disappointment?
"I mean," Titus continued when he saw that Freya's sad face became worse, "St Vlad's is too exclusive anyway!"
Freya sighed.
Titus rolled his eyes. His words had the opposite effect on the girl!
"How about we eat some food?" Titus suggested.
Freya's eyes fell on the buffet and she barely kept herself from drooling.
She then felt guilty. Her brother would be eating a simple bread right now and here she drooling over a buffet.
Titus observed her and found her reaction to food funny. One minute she was looking at the food like a starved lover in a desert who finally saw her beloved's oasis and The next moment she looked at the food like it was tormenting her soul.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Freya ducked her head and mumbled something.
"What? Sorry...I couldn't hear you."
"Can we take a plate or two back home with us?"
Titus laughed. "Yeah. You can. Why are you so worried about food though? Isn't it just some roasted chicken and bread?"
Freya's eyes sparkled. "I really can?"
"Yeah."
Freya sighed in contentment. She could give her family a few morsels to eat that evening.
Titus frowned as he saw her serene expression. "In fact, you can take it all if you have a storage ring."
"I don't."
Titus raised an eyebrow. He thought for a moment and took something out of his pocket.
He handed it over to her.
Freya looked at it in surprise.
