My new assistant!

After training my mana-art, I could feel that my mana was channeling more freely. It felt like I had taken some kind of medicine to make my paths broad to channel the mana easily, while nothing of this sort was happening.

The technique was unique in itself, and talent was also necessary. Victor always had the talent in controlling mana. Even when he was just five years old, he was able to use mana without anyone teaching him.

When his parents saw this, they started teaching him properly and his control started getting better. Now, his control in channeling mana is as good as a B-ranked eradicator. But having learned this new technique, his control didn't improve, instead his speed increased in channeling mana.

'I will call this channeling technique 'Lightning breaths' I thought to myself.

Having trained for three hours with this technique, I was covered with sweats. I headed out of the training room and took a quick shower.

Exiting the bathroom, I realized that there was another thing that I saw in my visions/images but couldn't remember it.

Remembering that I took notes of all the visions/images that I saw, I ordered Sarah: "Sarah, send me the notes with the name 'skill' to the table in the living room."

I quickly arrived in the living room and checked through the notes of the images that I took yesterday.

Soon, I noticed that, on the information section, someone challenged me to a duel. But, till now, nothing happened, so I decided to ignore it and think about it later and headed to bed.

Beep! Beep! BEEP!!

—Ding Dong~! —Ding Dong~!

The next morning was a noisy one. My alarm was beeping constantly and someone was ringing my doorbell non-stop.

Tap!

Opening my eyes, I first snoozed off my alarm and checked the time, and it was 4:45 a.m. Getting off the bed, I headed to my door and opened it to see who is here so early in the morning.

There stand a young woman who looked to be in her late twenties. She had short red auburn hairs, blue eyes, and a somewhat beautiful face. She was about the same height as me but slightly shorter, about 182 cm. She wore a white uniform for the dorm staff.

As I opened the door, I was met with a crisp, pleasant voice. "Oh! Hello, Are you Victor Hall? And thi..."

But the voice stopped halfway, half-asleep, I nonchalantly said, "Indeed, I am Victor Hall, and what do you need?"

"Uh.. I think you should wear something first, Mr. Hall."

Hearing what she said, I quickly looked at myself and realized that I was shirtless and was only wearing trousers.

I woke up from my half-asleep state and glanced at the lady in front of me, who looked away while blushing. I then said, "Sorry about this, please come in and wait in the living room. I will quickly change and be there in a minute."

She looked at me and said in a low voice: "O..Okay."

She entered and headed to the living room. I quickly headed to my bedroom and changed into a white t-shirt and green trousers, then headed to the living room.

I opened the door and entered the living room, which made that lady slightly flinch.

I looked at her and asked, "What's your name? And why did you come so early in the morning?"

"I am Jennifer Wright, your newly assigned assistant for anything you might need in the Mammoth dorm. I came yesterday, but you weren't present, Mr. Hall."

"So, Ms. Wright, What did yo..."

Cutting me midway through the sentence, she said: "Jennifer is alright. You can call me Jennifer."

"Hmm.. Then, you may call me Victor as well. So, Ms. Jennifer, Why did you come so early in the morning?"

"At first, I was planning to come later, but the chief butler asked me to plan your diet plan and other things you may need. I was against it as I thought you would be sleeping in right now, but he insisted. That's why I had to come here so early. So basically, I am here to plan your diet plans and ask you what you would like...."

She stopped midway when she realized that she just spoke too fast, "...I am sorry about that." She then said while blushing, "Did someone ever mention to you that you are really, really handsome!?"

I looked at her and was about to answer her, but she outrun me and spoke. "I am sorry, I think I am just a little nervous."

"No need to be so nervous." I then said while looking at her. "And yes, I have been told that I am handsome."

'By my mother.' Obviously, I didn't really tell her that.

"Oh, I see. So, I am here for anything you might need and to plan for your diet plan for breakfast, lunch, and dinner."

"Okay. Right now, I don't think I require something. If I need something, I will be sure to inform you. And as for the diet plan..."

Then I told her what I would like for my breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and she planned accordingly. It was so that the chefs at the dorm could prepare whatever a student required.

After finishing talking and discussing some other matters, Jennifer prepared to leave.

"Here is my number. You can call me anytime you want." She said, slightly blushing.

"Okay. Thank you."

Then she got up and headed toward the door to leave the room.

When she was about to leave, I said to her: "Wait!"

She turned around and looked with a triumph look that said: 'Yes, Finally!! I did it!'

I said to her: "Jennifer, there will be a courier from my dad. Inform me as soon as it arrives. Here is my number."

She looked a bit sad, but still had that triumph look. She then turned around and headed out of the room.

Then, I headed to the bathroom.

Standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom, I looked at myself.

I was about 188 cm in height. I had golden eyes, my hairs have also completely turned to golden color after learning the mana-art, and I had sharp features and my muscles looked toned like that of a trained person.

I thought to myself,

'Am I really that handsome, like she said!'
