Inner Ring

"You know, I have some free time today. Let's do the permanent permit thing together and then I'll show you the inner circle." Maxim thought for a while and then spoke. William also wanted to make a good impression, and maybe this was a good opportunity. He thought that after becoming an official Mage, William would be able to easily defeat most Mages of his level. This would make William the elite of the elite. It wasn't a bad trade.

"Really? Thank you very much. Everyone here thinks they're shit." William said, looking around at the scattered crowd. (This is actually the opposite of what it means. 'Being shit' is like thinking you're in a high position.)
