Chapter 484 : Seraphina's Little Lover

Foustia felt like she had seen a ghost.

The usually aloof Seraphina actually walked in with Felyn.

And they were arm in arm!

"This is Felyn, he's my..."

Seraphina fell silent for a moment. What was her relationship with Felyn right now?

Friends with benefits? Saying something like that in front of a human would definitely cause a commotion, and besides, she hadn't actually done it with Felyn.

Husband and wife? But Felyn hadn't agreed.

"He's my friend."

"Seraphina, since when did you have friends?"

Foustia brought water for the two of them, her gaze sizing Felyn up and down.

Young, handsome, and connected to so many important figures. This Felyn was not simple.

And to have Seraphina personally escort him here meant their relationship was definitely not ordinary.

Felyn, at this moment, was also observing Foustia.

Her fluffy, curly hair made her face look very, very small, a bit like his advanced mathematics female teacher from his university days before he transmigrated. She would probably look good in a plaid shirt or a sleeveless top, taking pictures on a beach.

"Foustia, I'll be entrusting Felyn to you from now on."

"Hm? Those words are a bit ambiguous." She leaned close to Seraphina and joked, "Seraphina, this couldn't be the little lover you're keeping, could he? So handsome."

Her relationship with Seraphina was quite good. Seraphina had previously asked her to use her divine art to help carve magic crystals.

Foustia also knew that for Felyn to have so many important figures concerned about him, his status was naturally not low. It was unlikely he was Seraphina's lover.

But, after hearing this, Seraphina actually didn't deny it.

She didn't deny it!

"Hey, hey, hey, Seraphina, is he really your kept little lover?" Foustia kept poking Seraphina's arm, desperately wanting to pull her into a dark room and interrogate her about all the details.

"I suppose so."

"My god, Seraphina, you actually kept a man?! You have good taste." Foustia patted her shoulder. This explosive news made it impossible for her to close her mouth.

"Is he really good? To make even you, Seraphina, unable to resist falling for him, hahahaha."

Really good? Felyn was indeed quite good.

The whip felt very comfortable.

"Foustia, is it okay to talk about your future student like that?"

"Ahem, it's better than you bringing your lover to see me, right?"

"He's not my lover yet." Seraphina glanced at Felyn. "At least, not yet."

Foustia nudged Seraphina's back with her elbow again and said with a grin, "Miss Seraphina, you haven't fallen for Felyn, have you? Is the lover going to be upgraded to a husband? Your expression just now was a little dangerous, you know, like a girl in love."

"Don't talk nonsense." Seraphina smoothed her skirt and tucked her feet closer to the chair.

"Admit it, this plot of falling in love because of sex is so exciting."

Felyn couldn't help but frown. The Mentor Foustia in front of him clearly had a look of someone enjoying gossip.

What were these two chattering about?

He saw a blush actually appear on Seraphina's cheeks and felt that the two of them were definitely talking about something not suitable for children.

Is this the very serious high-level mentor? She seems quite improper too, huh?

"I have other things to do, Foustia. Felyn, he..."

"I know, I know. When you're not around, I'll help you take good care of him."

Seraphina frowned, feeling that this sentence was very strange. She stared at Foustia. "Miss Foustia, you'd better not get any improper ideas about Felyn."

"What are you saying? Would I snatch my friend's little boyfriend? Am I that kind of person?"

Seraphina took one last look at Felyn, memorizing his appearance once more, before leaving the office.

"Mentor Foustia, I'm Felyn. It's a pleasure to meet you..." Felyn stood up to greet Foustia, but was stopped by a wave of her hand.

"Student Felyn, you don't need to introduce yourself. I already understand your situation." Foustia's face changed. She sat back down at her desk, hunched over a thick book.

She put on a pair of round-framed glasses, which made her face look even smaller.

"Although I am a high-level mentor, compared to the mentors of the College of Judgment, I can't directly help you. However, here you can learn information about almost all the divine arts in the world. If you want to become a scholar in a team in the future, being proficient in others' divine arts is very necessary."

"There is a principle of mutual generation and restraint between divine arts, and some can even fuse with each other. If you master this information, you can mobilize the combat power of your team and gain an advantage in battle. The weakness, though, is that you have almost no offensive power yourself and can only be protected like a brain."

All of a scholar's divine arts were related to research and analysis, just like Daiyi.

But the characteristics of Herlomir's divine art completely made up for this shortcoming. Felyn could directly copy others' divine arts, and his combat power would grow stronger as he faced stronger opponents.

"Speaking of which, Lady Daiyi personally instructed me not to ask about your divine art." Foustia took out Felyn's information sheet and placed it on the table. "But if I don't know your divine art, I can't carry out targeted training for you. Is that okay?"

"Mhm, I just need to master the knowledge of divine arts."

Herlomir's divine art couldn't be known by too many people yet. Not only would it be dangerous for Felyn himself, but it would also cause a certain degree of wavering in the faith of others.

"Then, as your teacher, in order for you to earn credits in the future and have a place in a team, I suggest you start looking for a few trustworthy teammates now and begin to cultivate them."

Foustia raised her right hand and made a '0' gesture in the air. "Let's first assume you don't know any divine arts, only knowledge and understanding of them. Then your combat power is only 0."

"But if you have a group of trustworthy partners, and you are responsible for cultivating them and commanding them in battle, while they are responsible for protecting you in battle, you can also achieve victory. This is currently the best way for you to earn credits."

Foustia was very clear about the disadvantage of students from the College of Revelation. Unable to fight, they had to master skills that others couldn't replace.

That was analysis in battle, and cultivation after battle.

Analysis goes without saying, but cultivation in battle and daily life was also crucial.

Other colleges would naturally teach how to increase the power of divine arts, but that was ultimately just improving individual strength.

If one started to intentionally cultivate the divine arts of team members from now on, making their divine arts more suitable for the team's characteristics, then when this team grew, it could defeat enemies several times its number.

Foustia really wanted to form such a team with the team as its core, where everyone's divine art upgrade path was to make the team stronger.

But this was very difficult, because a team needed divine arts of different attributes, which naturally required people from different churches.

They would be together at most while in the Royal Capital District, but once they graduated, they would each return to their respective churches, and the team would naturally disband. Therefore, the vast majority of people were unwilling to sacrifice their own divine arts for the benefit of the team.

If only there could be a team that would never separate, and everyone's divine art was cultivated from scratch.

This had always been Foustia's wish, but she also knew it wasn't that easy.

"Life at the academy is very compact. Regular classes start today. Now that the two of us have greeted each other, I'll give you your first task. Go find three teammates who are willing to be cultivated by you and bring them to me. I'll first judge if they have the strength, and then help you match your team's divine arts and future plans."

This was special care from Foustia. As a teacher, she originally didn't need to do so much; she just needed to honestly teach Felyn knowledge of divine arts.

But so many people had asked her, and Felyn was also Seraphina's lover. How could she not pay more attention to him?
