Chapter 312 Chapter 312 - Emotions

A smile appeared on Aiden\'s face as he saw the system message.

It had been a while since he had gotten any news about it and Aiden had to admit that it was quite a nice feeling.

\'Wait is that it? There\'s nothing else?\' Aiden thought as he was waiting to get some sort of reward.

However, from the looks of it, it seemed that it wouldn\'t be the case this time.

He wouldn\'t be getting any reward but simply a congratulation on what he had achieved. It wasn\'t anything bad, however, he had just hoped for the usual.

But, the system probably wasn\'t in a good mood for some reason.

Well, at least that\'s what Aiden thought when he didn\'t receive any reward.

"Are you okay, Aiden? You lost your smile instantly," Garestsa commented unsure why he was having those emotional swings out of nowhere.

He had never shown any emotions and now he was having problems controlling them.

However, when he heard Garestsa talk about his smile, Aiden immediately lost it.

\'Did I smile? Why did I even do that?\' Aiden thought as he hadn\'t noticed that detail at all.

It had been purely subconscious that\'s why Aiden was so oblivious about it. He didn\'t mind the fact that he had smiled, he disliked the fact that he hadn\'t noticed at all.

"Yeah, I am, sorry got distracted a little," Aiden responded not even mentioning the system message at all.

It was logical of him not to do so since he didn\'t want the reaction from the system would be.

Aiden hoped that there wouldn\'t be any problem with the Lumithars since he aspired to meet some of those people in the future. He wanted to know so many things about the system and he hoped by meeting them that they would be telling him.

As Garestsa was about to say something else, David finally appeared in front of the two of them since they had succeeded.

"Impressive, both of you. Aiden I don\'t know what happened there at the end but it was really incredible, it was as if you had practiced potion-making your whole life," The director of the Magic Academy said as he truly every single one of the words that he had just pronounced.

Aiden simply nodded, not even smiling at the sudden compliments thrown his way.

However, that wasn\'t the case for Garestsa who was currently panicking.

\'D-Did he just call me impressive? No... there has to be something wrong with my body, am I dreaming?\'

She knew very well who the person teaching them was, so being praised by him was an honor, to say the least.

"T-Thank you, sir."

"I told you already, but I really don\'t care about honorifics, just call me David. I won\'t mind."

In fact, David didn\'t like being treated with too much respect and it was one of the things that he liked from Aiden. He wasn\'t treated differently even when he had such an important status.

"Now, I think it\'s getting late, what do you say, Aiden?" David asked as he had a smile on his face.

It was the first time that Aiden was seeing it as he had always seen the director of the Magic Academy quite serious if he were to be completely honest.

Aiden looked around and didn\'t think that it was all that bad. It wasn\'t dark out, so why was David asking such a random thing out of nowhere?

"Uh, it seems fine, why?" Aiden replied, confused.

David thought that Aiden was doing it on purpose.

"Don\'t you remember what we agreed on earlier?"

Then, Aiden finally understood what this whole thing was about, it was now time for Aiden to be teaching the two of them.

"Right," Aiden exclaimed. "Sorry, about that I completely forgot."

David giggled hearing that answer, "Don\'t worry about it, you were probably too engrossed in your potion-crafting."

"About that, where were you even watching us from?" Aiden asked as he remembered that David had given the two of them congratulations while pointing out things that he shouldn\'t have been able to see at all.

David looked up as if he hadn\'t heard anything.

"Nowhere, I wasn\'t looking at the two of you. Enough about that, let\'s start our training," the director of the Magic Academy said as he didn\'t want such a thing to happen.

Aiden didn\'t care that much about getting that information, so he didn\'t apply too much pressure at all, dismissing it as nothing important.

"Sure, I guess we can," he said as he knew that night wouldn\'t be coming too soon.

He knew that David must be impatient in learning everything since Aiden hadn\'t taught him anything since the very start of their conversation.

"Alright, what do you want to learn about first?" Aiden asked to both David and Garestsa.

He knew that the two of them were quite excited to learn something that wasn\'t related to magic at all. In fact, Aiden was able to see the happiness on their faces.

\'Is learning close combat really that awesome?\' Aiden thought as he never remembered being truly excited about learning something.

For him, it was simply a way of getting stronger, he didn\'t feel great during its process.

The only time that he would feel great was when he succeeded in getting stronger. That was it, there was no other moment where Aiden was happy about learning all sorts of things.

To be completely honest, Aiden was still an assassin at his core. He remembered his past training and his past ideology.

\'I guess my past is still affecting me greatly, huh?\' Aiden thought as he was slowly realizing that maybe some of his reactions weren\'t normal at all.

A loud voice made him come out of his thoughts.

"I want to learn how to use a dagger," the director said as he knew that it was the basics of close combat.

Getting good at any weapon would be a good way to get stronger.

"Well, do you guys have a dagger?" Aiden asked as he knew that the chances of that being the case would be ridiculously low.

However, contrary to his expectations, the director exclaimed, "I do!"

"I asked for one of my friends to make one since I knew that I would be training with you," David replied, seemingly proud that he had thought of such a thing.

"Alright, as for Garestsa since you don\'t seem to have any, you will be able to use mine when you train, but try to get one made as soon as possible it could help you greatly."

Garestsa nodded, truly grateful about the lengths to which Aiden was currently going to help her.

"Thank you!" She said as she bowed—her head almost reaching the ground.

"Don\'t worry about it, alright before I give it to you, I will show you some techniques to get better at using one."

Aiden closed his eyes as he tightly grabbed his dagger about to demonstrate to his students, what they could achieve if they were to work hard enough.

\'Who would have thought that I would be showing someone other than Emma how to use a dagger?\' Aiden thought, laughing by himself as he started moving his dagger around.
