Good Fortune

Adam walked toward the nearby pond and sat down on a boulder by the bank, gazing at the fish lazily swimming underwater.

He conjured a handful of chia seeds from his earring and threw them in the pond. As he watched the fish feast on the seeds, he grabbed the large gourd and poured some wine into a ceramic cup.

Leisurely sipping on the wine, he recalled all that happened in the past few years.

Life at Saratoga continued the way it did, except he had now become a research assistant for the Rank 3 Magus and the Department Head of the School of Summoning, Professor Mathilda Whitaker.

His in-depth research about the art of teleportation had garnered immense praise from not only her but also the other Rank 3 professors at Saratoga.

Of course, Adam hadn't divulged to them any information about his 'Blink' teleportation that he used with the white lotus as the magical focus.

That was his trump card, after all.
