Chapter 129- Magic Class And Unexpected Outcome (Part 3)

Clearing her throat, Evelyn didn\'t try to poke Rin more than this. She knew that if she kept doing it, students will start growing suspicious of their relationship and they will end up in a weird situation which neither of them would benefit from.

Instead, she focused on the class and regained her usual cheeky and seductive smile.

"As your classmate said, the only way for you to develop your ability and make it stronger is through continuous use and practice. It\'s like our muscles and our mana, it\'s all about how much you hone it. But… We can\'t forget about the one single important component."

Pointing her finger at the board, one word was written, \'talent\'.

"It\'s a talent that determines whether that hard work would pay off as much as it should or not. People with no talents can never reach what people with great talents can achieve."

Rin blinked his eyes a few times as he looked at Evelyn confusedly.

\'Is she even aware that she\'s teaching a bunch of students? You can\'t say stuff like that here.\'

Even though he might agree with what she said, that doesn\'t mean it needs to be vocalized in front of them. She only had to teach them the curriculum and never mention these facts as the students already knew them and they didn\'t need to get another hit to their confidence. But, Evelyn seems to take none of that as she continued.

"You can work hard all you want and even go far and beyond to break that wall called \'talent\'. But, no one attempted that and came out victorious. Talent was, is, and will always be the thing that humans can never beat besides death."

"That is wrong…" A female student with a serious look stood up and objected.

"Hmm?"

"I don\'t agree with that idea, Professor Christina. Talent isn\'t something necessary to succeed."

"Oho? How is that?~~" Evelyn didn\'t try to shut her down as she seemed interested to listen to whatever nonsense the girl was about to spout.

"Hard work is way more important than talent and can easily replace it in most cases even. All the person needs is determination and belief to reach the top. That\'s the real truth, Professor."

The way the girl was speaking sounded so proud and dignified as if she was saying something she took pride in. Hard work is the only thing needed for one\'s success? Rin could only shake his head at such naive thoughts. For him, talent is as important, if not even more important, than hard work. It\'s the limiter that is genetically engraved into every human that makes them unique and different from one another.

He had experienced a taste of both worlds. In his previous life, he was a talentless nobody who could only survive because of the support of the people around him. He had felt powerless countless times and even lose all of his family because of that same lack of talent. He had tasted the bitterness of being weak.

Then, he came to Divine Sapphire and experienced obtaining a one-of-a-kind talent. He had seen how much talent can make a person\'s whole existence change. He had tasted strength, the happiness of achieving something no matter how hard it was, and the excitement of succeeding in anything he tries.

That\'s when he came to the conclusion that talent is way more important than hard work. In a fairy tale, the main character is always depicted as this powerless, talentless person that can\'t do anything. But, through sheer determination, he can reach the top. But, in every medium of those, Rin saw a pattern. The main character himself would always obtain a form of boost whether it was an item, a mysterious power, or anything else.

That exact boost is in real life equal to talent. People seem to forget that idea and that made Rin quite confused.

Shaking his head, Rin focused on Evelyn and waited for what she wanted to say.

"What\'s your name?" She asked out of nowhere.

"Sora."

"A beautiful name, Miss. Sora."

"T-Thank you." The girl averted her eyes for a second from Evelyn as she felt her beautiful green eyes just focusing on her way too much.

Then, Sora looked back at Evelyn… However…

"Where is sh-"

"I\'m here." Feeling a tap on her shoulder, she looked back with a horrified look on her face.

"See what happened there? Were you able to follow me with your eyes?"

"..."

"Answer the question, Sora.~~" Evelyn added as she gently twirled one of Sora\'s strands of hair in her fair fingers.

"N-No… I-I mean…"

"So the answer is a no. Well, in your opinion, how long would it take for you to pull of such a feat easily?" Evelyn asked.

"W-Wait… No, I-I don\'t…"

"Why are you nervous? Did you perhaps feel it…"

Then, Evelyn bent down and whispered near her ear.

"Did you feel that difference in talent? Did you think \'I will never be able to do this even if I work hard\'? Did you see the difference between us?~~" Evelyn asked.

"Sora, you seem like a good girl. You most likely have been a serious hard worker since a young age. I don\'t want to ruin that for you. Just know this… Hard work will never win against pure, honed talent. I would like to see you proving my words wrong, though.~~"

Her voice sounded so calm and unthreatening that it had the opposite effect on the poor girl. She felt her face sweating and paling considerably with each passing second Evelyn was that close to her.

Then, Evelyn seemingly having enough, retreated and then vanished under everyone\'s eyes and appeared where she was before.

"If you believe in hard work, believe as much as you want. It\'s your lives that you are responsible for, after all. I was merely giving you the real facts. The world will teach you what you like and don\'t like, bear that in mind."

Then, she smiled widely under the shocked and speechless looks of her students.

"Let\'s continue our lesson."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In another place, far far from where Rin and Elise were, a gorgeous, black-haired woman could be seen walking inside a corridor in a hurry.

Emilia kept looking at the time with a frown on her face while quickening her steps in her direction.

\'Tsk, I reached the higher floors late. Not that those bastards will be any earlier than me.\' She thought to herself.

The place she was walking inside was so extravagant and beautiful that it could make the richest of people outside the academy just lose consciousness from shock. Even the best of castles and mansions could never compare to a small corner of this place.

The corridor was decorated with gold, rare ores, priceless paintings, and extremely rare flowers put in high-quality vases. The red carpet under her felt so soft and comfortable to walk on that it might entice someone to just lay on it and take a nap.

But, Emilia ignored all of that and just merely gazed at a particular door. When she stopped in front of it, she sighed and took a few deep breaths to make herself calm down. It wasn\'t nervousness that made her do that but her certainty that when she meets the scumbags in this place, she will eventually get angry.

\'I must keep my calm. It\'s not worth getting angry. Just calm, Emilia.\'

After that, she opened the door and stepped inside.

"Emiiiii!!"

The moment she put on her feet, a loud voice called for her before her body was embraced by another person.

"Lilia, you are suffocating me! Get your racks away from your face." Pushing the woman away she clenched her teeth.

"But, but, but, Emi… I really need to hug you or I will start crying.." The beautiful, brown-haired woman said with a sad look as she rubbed her face on Emilia\'s cheek.

"I said get off me."

*Bonk*

"Ouch! Horrible, Emi! How can you do this to your best friend?!" Lilia protested as she put her hands on the top of her head, rubbing the place of the hit.

"You are heavy."

"I-I\'m not… Look, my body is slim and fit."

"That\'s not what I\'m talking about, moron." Gazing at the huge things on Lilia\'s chest area, Emilia could only sigh.

\'They seem to get bigger whenever I meet her.\'

"Anyway, let me walk inside. Did anyone come yet?" She asked.

"No, I am the first. Licht said that he will be here in a few more minutes. The others will also be here soon. It won\'t take long like last time, hopefully."

"Tsk, Licht… That annoying scumbag."

Just remembering that man\'s face, Emilia would get irritated. He was one of the most annoying people she had ever met and he seemingly wasn\'t going to leave her alone any time soon.
