"Really, I really don't know what's on your mind, Rein."
After escorting Noctis to the treatment room, Professor Elin asked the student to go to his office. Gazing towards the silver-haired prince, he could only let out a long sigh.
"It should be that your body problem has been resolved, you are also growing very quickly. The reason why I asked you to do special exercises during the holidays is because I thought you would relax after the new school year started.
Who would have thought, you are still so excited in your pursuit of strength.
Last time, you broke through the circle of five lightning mages. What's more terrifying, the dark magic that accumulates in your body actually pushes you through circle four in one year. Although it was due to the accumulation of darkness magic over the years and the demon blood in your body.
I was wondering how you could have survived until last year without going crazy or exploding due to excessive magic."
"..."
Seeing Reinhart still silent, Professor Elin smiled wryly.
"Circle 5 lightning magician and dark magician circle 4 at the age of 16 years. Even the great heroes and witches in history would not be able to do such a thing. If the magic scholars heard it, they would definitely not believe it unless they saw it with their own eyes.
Not to mention, your current physique is already better than most witches. So, I'm going to ask ... why are you still obsessed in your pursuit of power, Rein?"
"I just want to have the strength to walk calmly in the world after graduating from the academy," Reinhart replied flatly.
"You are a prince, even a figure who might be the crown prince of one of the great empires on this continent. Really am! No sane person would make trouble with you after seeing your identity!"
"It only applies to sane people!" reinhart was not satisfied.
"What???" Professor Elin raised his eyebrows.
"The evil and perverse dark sect, the greedy hitmen of money, the mad magic researchers who do everything on the basis of the advancement of magic and knowledge.
Those lunatics don't care about identity at all! They are crazy and will not act in a natural way!"
"Where did you get that information?! Moreover, such a thing is not something that a child like you should think about. The adults will take care of everything! So you just have to enjoy your youth!"
Hearing this, Reinhart complained inwardly. Even scolded the ancestors who started spreading the teachings so that the youths would not worry.
'If your words can be trusted, I will not work hard at all! The trash ancestor said in an incredible manner, but it was ultimately unable to eradicate the small evil organization hundreds of years ago.
Right now that the dark sect was becoming bigger and crazier, who was suffering? Pshaw! Don't joke with me!'
Aside from wanting to live a quiet life, Reinhart herself also had a reason why she had to rush into being strong. A reason known only to himself. A reason that concerns not only his desires, but also his life.
"I thought you wouldn't listen to me." Professor Elin let out a long breath. "Then don't overdo it. I don't want to have an accident. I don't want to be questioned by your mother."
'Yes .. That is what my teacher said. The woman who told me to jump into the sea in winter to swim with the whales.'
Hearing his teacher's words, Reinhart immediately complained in his heart.
The woman continued to give important advice to Reinhart. Although some are just babbles, some are still very useful because they contain reviews of the young man's shortcomings in the field of magic, close combat, or other things. After talking for a long time, Professor Elin finally asked the student back.

"You're absolutely amazing, sir. Maybe in a year or two, you will defeat me without having to use magic. It seems that I will soon return to the palace because it is no longer needed" Isana said with a smile on her face.
Although the woman was smiling, Reinhart felt a trace of sadness in her speech and the look in her eyes. The young man then approached Isana and touched her forehead.
"Master?"
Isana tilted her head, looking confused by her master's actions. However before he knew what was happening, Reinhart's figure suddenly hugged him. The young man also said to him.
"You are my most loyal knight and follower, Isana. Even if I become crown prince or king, I have absolutely no intention of leaving you. Of course, if you are tired of following me, though reluctant .. I will set you free."
"Eh??? Please let me go, sir. I'm sweaty and dirty."
Isana looked panicked from the sudden embrace. Hearing his master's words, his expression gradually calmed down. He no longer panicked, instead having a grateful expression on his face. The woman leaned against Reinhart's shoulder and closed her eyes.
"Thank you, sir."
"Together."
Reinhart replied with a gentle pat on Isana's back. Just then, a small figure came out from the back door of the house and approached them.
"I ... I will also fight to protect you, Master!"
Seeing little Lyn clenching her hands together with a stern expression but instead looking cute, Reinhart smiled. Releasing her embrace at Isana, she stroked Lyn's head and ruffled the little girl's hair.
"Of course, Lyn will be a great witch. I'll wait for you to protect me someday."
"Hehehe~ Leave it to me, Master!" lyn said happily.
After spending time with his servant as usual, Reinhart took a shower and had dinner. He continued the activity by making valuable potions for sale, then studied for a while before taking a break.
***
Closing his eyes, Reinhart felt her body drift away in a dark place. When he opened his eyes, he saw a familiar place. A place he had seen several times since returning from the Emerald Sea Kingdom.
A vast white space with four figures standing in the distance and looking back at it.
'Really, if not for seeing it so many times, I would have just thought it was an ordinary dream.'
Sitting in his chair without being able to move anywhere, Reinhart smiled wryly.
Because of this dream, the young man did a lot of research and finally found a reason why he had this kind of dream. A thing that may be trivial and unreasonable, but can affect his life.
Not only did it affect his life, but it also had a high probability of getting him killed.
Glancing at the four directions where there were several different but familiar figures, Reinhart sighed helplessly. The young man quietly complained in his heart.
'Really ... Who would have thought that my soul was broken?'
