"Oh..."

Bho Jin was sad, hearing that the admission period was over.

However, when Dorian said there would be another admission period 3 and a half months from now, how could he not be joyful?

Looking at it, did this mean that this magic academy also made admissions like most schools did too?

Was there a winter admission and Fall admission period?... What about Summer?

Or could it be that there were only 2 admission periods?

In truth, Dorian had thought about this matter.

For this first year, he would have 2 or 3 admission periods.

But from the Academy's next year, admission would only be once a year.

His academy was the first of its kind and would be a prestigious one.

Just like in his previous life, academies did hold their entrance ceremonies once too, maybe to build up a great prestige.

But for him, he decided on this path because at present, the academy didn't have many skilled teachers.

He wanted the first batch of caretakers to grow, building worth and knowledge.

Of course, it would be a lie if he said he didn't also want his academy to be prestigious.

The many tests and once-in-a-year entrance period would make many take the academy seriously.

.

Bho Jin was brimming with joy, listening to Dorian's brief words.

"Yes! Yes! I understand, Grandmaster!"

Hehehehe...

Since there was still a chance for him, he wouldn't give up until the next time.

Old madam Ghu smacked the back of his head before building his ears. "You little runt. Can't you see that we're still discussing business with the Grandmaster? When adults are talking, children should keep quiet."

"But... But he's my age."

"Shut up!" Old madam Ghu restrained herself from kicking him away.

You know you're the same age as the Grandmaster, yet you're still so useless?

Dorian stared at the group before him before looking at the many crystals and stones he used.

Alright. It was time to talk about cost.

For subduing that creature above his level, he took too many risks that could have crippled him.

The price would be costly because he expended his strength to defeat a creature above his level.

Again, he also had to factor in Butler Sheng and Zhulyn's actions. They too had to get paid.

This was a job.

And as for the cost of using the raw materials for the circle, he hadn't bought them... So they weren't his.

Hence, he couldn't charge them for using them.

No one owed anyone in this particular matter.

The Bhos provided the precious stones while he used them to defeat the Gargoyle.

Also, the overall cost took into consideration the creature's strength rank.

There was a standard price for each rank.

Adding and subtracting what was owed and what was not, Dorian accurately gave them a figure.

"37 Million Vyns."

Both the Bhos and the Ghus could easily cough up that amount.

"Grandmaster, don't worry. We will pay it all according to what you've said."

How could they not?

They even felt that their lives being saved was already a very process matter.

.

Like so, time was beating its end.

And soon, the many security men were quick to open the doors, seeing nothing changed.

(-_-)

Eh? Where were they?

Where were the criminals?

They thought they would come in and see several subdued criminal masterminds tied up.

So why did it look like these people were only having a chat all along?

What was this operation?

~Ring!!!!~

Old Ghu's phone went off.

And needless to say, he knew exactly who it was.

[Bastard Ghu! What the hell have you been doing in there all this time? What do you mean by stopping my business for a chat? Do you think this is a mafia movie or something? Even if you wanted to talk to someone about some top-secret operation, why do it in my spot? Can't you find another hidden location? Just confess! This is your old lady's idea, isn't it?!]

(*^*)

The voice was so loud that everyone around Old Ghu could hear what the person was saying.

Tch.

If not for the fact that she was exhausted, Old madam would've seized the bloody phone yet again.

All she could do was stare at Bho Jin.

"When next you see your grandfather, tell him he's dead!"

Gulp.

Bho Jin nodded his head slowly, inwardly saying his goodbyes to his grandfather.

Why did that hard-headed grandfather like to annoy this she-devil?

.

One by one, the building was once again open to the public, with no one knowing what happened in here except those who stayed with Dorian.

Ring!!!~~

Bho Jin's phone rang just as soon as Old Ghu's phone call ended.

Sure enough, it was his grandfather.

But what should he say?

If he told the truth, who would believe it?

They would only think that the Ghus had threatened him to come up with such stupid lies to cover their tracks.

As the future head, if he were to act as though he was afraid of the Ghus wrath, the elders, the guards, his immediate and even his branch relatives would look down on him.

Rather than telling the truth, it was best to lie.

Taking a deep breath, Bho Jin answered the phone.

"Grandpa, we did apprehend a wanted criminal. I don't know the person's identity. Only the Ghus do. So I can't say any more about this matter."

The Bho guards around him listener dot Bho Jin, understanding that this was the story they were to stick with.

Indeed... It was far better than the truth.

And not only does it keep them away from the focus point, but also indirectly told Old Bho that if he wanted to know more, he would have to pry it off the Ghus.

After all, Bho Jin had been here way earlier on for other matters with his friends.

So it was just a coincidence for him to be around during this time.

Old madam Ghu raised a brow at Bho Jin.

Once again, she admitted that though he was stupid, he was far more reliable than her idiotic grandson.

The idiot would've just blurted out the truth there and then.

.

Like so, things were finally settled.

And before leaving the scene, Dorian picked up other batches of stone and crystals.

And right on his tail, watching him from the shadows... another stranger stared at him with gloomy eyes.

'Dorian D. Tian... Your time is up!'
