"Hughes, the conditions of the Paramus Academy are not as good as theirs."

"But 1.2 million dollars and a Tier 5 spellbook can still be given to you."

"In addition, we will also give you a four-year tuition waiver." Anziel laughed as he looked at Hughes.

"You guys..."

Kate shook his head.

Then he looked at Hughes and said, "Hughes, their sincerity is not enough. I don't like to beat around the bush. I'll be frank with you about some things."

"As long as you can come to Lach Academy of Magic, you can read all the books in the magic library. If you have the ability, you can also read the forbidden spells."

Hearing this, the other three looked at Kate in surprise.

Although Hughes did not understand these things, he still knew about the magic library and forbidden spells.

There was no bottleneck in the makings of a mage. What they usually lacked was knowledge.

And the collection of books in one of the four great academies was a huge fortune.

Nicholas calculated in his heart.

He found that he could not calculate the sincerity of the Lach Academy because the collection of all the magic books in one academy was too huge.

There was a legend that the magic books of the Four Great Magic Academies added up to half of the world's total magic.

This condition was too big and too tempting.

Although other schools could afford it.

But if that was the case, it would be too unfair to other people with SS-grade magic talent.

Moreover, if every person with SS-grade magic talent were to be given this, if something were to happen, even the four great magic academies would not be able to withstand it.

On the other hand, Hughes was moved. He glanced at Kate from the corner of his eyes.

Jeremy also glanced at Kate. Just as Hughes was about to speak, he suddenly said, "Hughes, the Rivandeo Academy of Magic can also give the conditions of the Lach Academy!"

As soon as Jeremy finished speaking, Nicholas was once again surprised.

What was wrong with these people?

Although SS-grade was rare, it was not unheard of.

Was there a need to be like this?

Kate's willow-like eyebrows furrowed slightly.

This Jeremy was indeed not an easy person to deal with.

Just as Kate was about to say something, Hughes's voice sounded.

"Teachers, there's no need to argue. I already have the answer in my heart!"

Hughes looked at the people around him and said slowly.

"Oh?"

Hearing Hughes's voice, the few of them turned to look at Hughes.

Jeremy urged him anxiously. "Hughes, speak! No matter which one you choose, we will support it."

Seeing Jeremy's impatient expression, Hughes no longer kept them in suspense. He immediately said, "I choose the Lach Academy."

"Teachers, I'm sorry!"

Although he was more inclined towards the Lach Academy, the other three academies had nothing to say to him, so he still had to have the proper etiquette.

Hughes, who had lived two lifetimes, would not be arrogant just because the four great academies were fighting over him.

If that was the case, he would not even know how he died.

When these words were said, the surrounding people all looked at him with admiration.

"Mm, good. Neither servile nor overbearing. Polite and well-mannered," Jeremy said in a deep voice.

"Calm and steady in the face of benefits, he has a good heart. His future is bright!" Barron roared.

"Kate, congratulations on getting such a good seedling." Anziel turned his head and said to Kate with a smile.

"Hmph, I'm not like you guys. All of you are so slow-witted and stingy." Kate said faintly with a smile.

"Hmph, since you're so confident, I'll see you at the freshmen tournament." Barron snorted coldly and left shortly after.

"Has Barron found a good seedling?"

"No, I have to hurry up and recruit students as well." Jeremy's eyes rolled as he muttered to himself.

Then, he left the principal's office with Anziel.

At this point, the fight for Hughes had come to an end.

Except for Kate, the other three had all left.

After all, they had to go to other places to recruit students with SS-grade magic talent.

In the principal's office, Bill and Nicholas looked at each other and began to feel emotional.

Although the gap between them and Hughes would grow bigger and bigger in the future, when they thought about how promising their students were, both of them were happy from the bottom of their hearts.

After watching the few of them leave, Kate took out a contract from her shoulder bag.

"Hughes, this is a special recruitment contract. Take a good look at it."

Looking at the contract that Kate handed over, Hughes took it and read it carefully.

Kate looked at Hughes, who was studying the contract with his head down and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

I need to read this carefully.

If I didn't know better, I would have thought that they would trick me.

Soon, Hughes finished reading the entire contract.

He took a pen from the penholder on the desk in the principal's office and signed his name on the contract.

The contract didn't have much binding force on Hughes.

But there were a lot of benefits and some things to pay attention to.

For example, the school's facilities for practicing magic, custom-made magical artifacts, and specially-recruited students had some free use times every month.

These benefits brought some unexpected surprises to Hughes.

After all, all of these could be done with a lot of money, and the current Hughes obviously did not have enough money to use them.

Moreover, even the better magical universities in the province did not have free-use times.

As expected, the four great universities had deep foundations.

And this was only one of the many benefits.

There were many other specific benefits.

"Hughes, this is a magic aura collector. You can record it."

Kate took out a lighter-sized small box from her shoulder bag and handed it to Hughes.

Only after he had recorded his unique magic aura, would the contract be official.

"Alright, all the procedures have been completed."

"Hughes, welcome to the Lach Academy of Magic class of 3012."

Kate put away one of the contracts and said with a smile.

After saying that, Kate paused again and asked with a smile, "By the way, can you tell me why you chose the Lach Academy of Magic?"

This question made Kate very curious.

In her opinion, Hughes did not agree because of the good conditions.

Although the huge conditions might be part of the reason, it was definitely not because of this.

But other than these, she could not think of anything else that could tempt Hughes.

"Because the Lach Academy of Magic has a lot of missions."

Hughes replied indifferently.

This was the truth.

Yesterday, when Hughes returned home, he especially learned about the situation of the four great academies.

Then, he discovered that the Lach Academy had many more missions than the other three academies, and most of them were related to demon beasts.

This was a great temptation for Hughes, who had the mage God system.

After all, only by killing more monsters could one gain magic proficiency and increase their level.

In addition, the Lach Magic Academy had an archmage with light magic, so this time it was naturally the Lach Magic Academy.

Kate took a deep look at Hughes and said, "You are a battle maniac. It seems that the Berserker in the school has an opponent this time."

"Berserker?"
