It would be a lie to say that Vincent wasn't nervous after sensing the appearance of the Tower Lord in front of him.

However, he knows that acting against this person is just impossible so he decided to just keep his mouth shut and waited for him to speak.

'Well, he's quite big indeed.' Vincent thought after 'seeing' him closer.

Just like his first impression, the Tower Lord is huge like a barbarian and the wooden staff appears to be very threatening although it's not emitting any Mana Fluctuations at all.

"Vincent, let's go to a quieter space to talk. I have a few questions for you."

A deep voice coming from the Tower Lord jolted Vincent a bit. He wasn't speaking using his mouth but similar to telepathy used by Professor Levent.

"Alright…"

There's no point disagreeing. Anyway, it's not like he will get killed by the Tower Lord.

Seeing that Vincent agreed without hesitation, the Tower Lord couldn't help but smile behind his cloak as he stomped the staff once on the ground.

The Tower's formation activated as the two disappeared in front of everyone!

As the Tower Lord, he has full control of the Formation Arts within the tower itself. One of them is this formation that is similar to a teleportation or space movement technique!

No—To be exact, Vincent felt the same sensation when he entered the dungeon owned by Professor Levent!

'Is it a coincidence?' Vincent mused as he started spreading his senses around the place where he was sent into.

Well, he also thought that it could be possible that the Black Tower's first Tower Lord was actually able to recreate the mystery behind the dungeon's entrance. He wouldn't be surprised if that was the case considering how many mysterious or incomprehensible things he had already seen.

"This is a nice room—or library, Tower Lord…" Vincent finally commented.

He didn't want to speak at first but he was truly impressed with this room. It is actually filled with so many books!

Furthermore, they weren't normal books but most likely skill books or maybe even higher-level grimoires! There are over 30 large shelves containing thousands of books each of them and he really wanted to check whether he could use his system's learning feature on them.

This opportunity is just too difficult to let pass.

"Ho~ You're blind but you're interested in a book?" The tower lord said as he sat behind his desk.

"Er… I have a few tricks in my sleeves."

"Oh? Are you also hiding your third eye?" The Tower Lord asked with interest as he leaned closer. He also gestured for Vincent to seat on a couch.

This large room doesn't seem to have any windows but Vincent can still feel the decent ventilation within the place. It's probably another formation art but anyway, it feels comfortable in the room so he obliged.

"I do not have a third eye, Tower Lord. However, my eyesight is already slowly returning. I can already see some light and blurred figures…" Vincent vaguely answered.

"So it's like that. No wonder… I have this feeling that your eyes can see things." The tower lord as he removed his cloak.

Vincent can only tell that he has long black hair aside from his huge build.

He smiled a bit and then finally asked for the reason why he was called here. There was no way the Tower Lord just wanted to have a normal chat with him.

"I called you here to ask whether you want to be my disciple, Vincent." The man asked sincerely as he looked at Vincent sincerely.

The latter wasn't expecting this sudden invitation at all. Perhaps, this is the reason why Magnus wanted to stop him from attending the competition!

The tower lord might've been looking for other disciples all this time!

"It was so sudden… Although I won against Magnus, it wasn't because I'm skilled with Mana Arts or Soul Arts. I'm sure that you can tell that I heavily relied on my weapons to barely win against him."

"That's true… However, since you've beaten my disciple. I don't think it's appropriate that a nobody was able to do that. If you're also my student, then that wouldn't hurt my reputation. Right? Or perhaps you have a master that is more powerful than me?"

Vincent helplessly smiled after realizing that he doesn't have that many options. Indeed, the Tower Lord still cares about his reputation which is quite understandable since he's the leader of this organization or country.

Furthermore, he is dubbed as the strongest Magician of the Black Tower right now. In that case, he probably wanted a disciple that is undefeated in stage battles at the very least.

"I wonder what benefits will I get? I've never really thought of becoming a disciple after all."

Vincent probed as he knows his complicated position as well. Currently, he also has a bad feeling that Rem and Tara did something that may have offended someone.

The gaze that he felt from a few elders or high-ranking members of the Tower bothered him a lot. Having the Tower Lord as his backer might give them an easier time dealing with such problems.

,m "Hmmm… First of all, I can allow you to stay in this library for 3 hours every month. As you can tell, this space is part of the Tower but not within the Tower so time is limited. It consumes energy just to get here."

The Tower Lord explained with a hint of pride in his voice.

Vincent was very excited to hear this and he allowed him to continue.

"In addition to that, I will teach you a Mana Art that is not recorded in this library. It is something I made myself so look forward to that.

"Furthermore, you will get a Blue Emblem that will solidify your position within the tower. It will come with a robe that is only worn by my disciples. It will be recognized in all 36 towers.

"Lastly, I will give you a decent welcome gift since you will be my seventh disciple… How is it?"
