"teacher!"
"Um!"
Horton nodded and gestured for Ian to sit opposite him.
"How does it feel?"
Ian pondered for a moment and said, "It's like a storm. One second the storm wants to tear me to pieces, but the next second, the storm disappears."
"Very apt."
Horton nodded, but then changed the subject, saying, "But the storm never disappears; it can rise again at any time. At that time, you'll have to rely on your own strength."
Ian nodded.
Then Horton changed the subject, saying, "I'm also very saddened by Hyde's death, but someone has to fill his void. I plan to have you take his place and become the new Minister of Logistics."
"Me... the head of the logistics department?"
Ian was taken aback.
He had considered becoming the vice minister of the potions department, but he never expected that Horton would make him the minister of the logistics department.
"What, don't you have confidence? If you're not willing, I can make you the vice president of the Potions Department," Horton said with a smile.
"No, teacher, I'm willing."
Ian hesitated for only a moment before agreeing.
Two years later, the college will conduct its assessment, and only with sufficient resources can he stand out in the assessment.
Especially after witnessing the conditions of those colleges.
He was well aware that whether or not he entered the academy would have a world of difference in his development.
Only there can he better utilize his advantages.
But if he wants to enter the Elemental Arcane Wizarding Academy, he will have to compete with the wizards of those academies.
That's not simple.
The panel helped him shorten the time it took to catch up with them.
But this is on the premise of having sufficient resources.
"Not bad, it's starting to look good. Don't worry, I'll have Willow help you later."
Horton comforted him.
He was naturally unaware of the tremendous progress Ian had made in the Green Corridor, and assumed he had just advanced.
But he didn't care.
No one can defy his decisions if he so chooses to.
The Horton School of Wizardry was never the school of Horton's apprentices, but rather Horton's own school.
But he was also curious.
Whether Ian can handle this responsibility well, and if he does, then he will share some of the profits with Ian.
If not, then it goes without saying.
"I will convene a new school of thought meeting in three days. I will make the announcement at the meeting. Also, once you have settled your department's affairs, I will give you my core inheritance."
Horton said.
"Understood, teacher."
Ian naturally understood what he meant.
Becoming a minister brings immense benefits, but also presents more complex situations.
In the past, he only dealt with wizards from different schools of thought, but in the future, he may deal with more families, or even other schools of thought.
"but...
""
Ian, however, did not feel much pressure on him.
Since returning from the academy, his strength has undergone a complete transformation.
It can be said that nowadays, anyone below the level of a peak wizard apprentice is almost no match for him.
Even the most skilled wizard apprentices.
Ian felt that he now had the strength to put up a fight.
It wasn't arrogance, but rather a judgment he made based on the previous battle between Willow and another top-tier wizard.
Whether it's the Branding Technique, Meditation, Swift Rune, or even the Eye of Harmony, these are all top-tier knowledge for the apprentice stage.
And various instantaneous spells, and profound spiritual power.
If someone of his skill level can't even reach this level, then it can only be said that all his hard work has been in vain.
He felt he was ready to meet the challenge.
Horton nodded in satisfaction.
Regardless, Ian's attitude pleased him.
soon.
Ian left the Wizard Tower.
Return to Maple Leaf Avenue.
There were at least a dozen people gathered in front of the familiar door.
In the crowd.
Ian spotted Seamus, Lucy, and Chris at a glance, along with the others who were all second-class or higher wizards from the same school.
"Lord Ian, you're back."
Simo was the first to approach, a fawning smile on his face.
Ian ignored him and walked towards Chris, who was not far away.
"Let's go in."
"OK."
Chris's face was full of smiles.
He had only taken one step when a glimpse of deep blue came into his view.
Lucy stepped forward, a rare smile appearing on her face: "Ian, I'm sorry about what happened before, it was just a misunderstanding—"
Ian interrupted her, saying, "There's no misunderstanding."
These words were like a bucket of cold water, leaving Lucy speechless.
She tried to say something more, but was pushed aside by the other wizards who surged forward to talk to Ian.
"Lord Ian, I am..."
"Lord Ian, this is what I harvested from the Emerald Forest..."
'
"Please wait a moment, everyone. May I rest for a bit?"
Ian spread his arms out and pressed down slightly.
"Of course, we'll come later."
The wizards then retreated sheepishly.
But his gaze toward Ian remained fiery.
After all, this person in front of him is Horton's student, and he will inevitably gain power in the school in the future.
"Lord Ian, you're finally back! Miss Chris welcomes you!"
At that moment, Shirley walked out the door.
His eyes were full of joy.
God knows how tense she was during those hours; she certainly didn't want to go back to that kind of environment.
But who could have imagined it?
Half an hour ago, wizards from various schools of thought began to gather outside the door, and she was too scared to open it.
But looking at the situation outside now...
It doesn't seem like an arrest?
"Miss? Are you Lord Ian's servant?"
Before she could close the door, she heard a wizard approach.
Before she could react, a mid-grade magic stone was already shoved into her hand.
"This?" Sherry stared at the magic stone, her eyes wide.
This is a mid-grade magic stone.
She has hardly ever even seen it, let alone owned it. What happened?
"Don't you know? Your master has already become Lord Horton's apprentice, and I believe you will soon become a formal wizard of the school," the wizard told her.
Sherry's pupils contracted slightly!
Although Shirley didn't know much about the schools of thought, she was aware that Houghton was the largest among them.
Lord Ian actually became his student.
I was deeply shocked.
But when the other wizards saw the wizard step forward, they were not to be outdone and handed Sherry some magic stones.
He was muttering words of goodwill and kind words.
Shirley was stunned when she encountered this situation for the first time.
This was something she had never experienced before within the school of thought.
Ian may not yet have experienced the benefits of being a student at Horton, but Shirley, as a servant, has.
Some are happy while others are sad.
At this moment, Mo Wen's face revealed deep regret.
My heart felt like it was being torn apart by a venomous snake.
Why did he act so snobbish before?
Everything is ruined.
"Why."
He sighed deeply, then turned and left.
Lucy, standing to the side, looked at the now-closed door.
She bit her lip, her hands trembling slightly.
"I did nothing wrong... He was just lucky, I don't know how Horton took a liking to him... If it were me... even if he were to become the vice minister of the potions department later, it wouldn't have a huge impact on the family."
She held onto the last bit of pride in her heart.
Then he turned and quickly left, his steps unsteady, as if he wanted to escape from there!
