After Emma's conversation with the Beast Teacher, she did start feeling better with the idea of being his assistant and taking care of the dragon eggs.
It was something she could do all by herself and she could get the chance to explore this forest without anybody else. This was a perfect way for her to destress and clear her mind.
"So… when do I start?" she asked him.
"I know you are busy this weekend taking care of the stupid concert," Marlowe replied. "So, it's okay to do it starting next week. I think you will need to start the first week of school doing other stuff."
"Ah…" Emma became disappointed. She actually wanted to start right away. "I don't mind start early…"
Marlowe narrowed his eyes and assessed her from head to toe. Finally, he nodded. "Very well. You can start in three days. Meet me after school on the first school day. I think we'll have my subject in the morning. I will tell you what to do."
