Chapter 198: Mentor (Part 2)

"She created her own problems; let her handle them herself. I have other matters to attend to; I won’t stay any longer," the middle-aged man suddenly stood up, and left hurriedly after uttering these words.

If he had known that staying would lead to this, he wouldn’t have lingered for a second.

Thinking to himself, Arthur Rodriguez’s daughter seems to be finished.

Not only did she commit such acts, but she also didn’t cover her tracks properly and was exposed successively.

It’s truly a useless person.

"Alex Rodriguez, since you’re her brother, you can take care of her." Dean Kirilova didn’t pay much attention to the middle-aged man’s departure.

Alex Rodriguez remained silent for a moment before helping his sister up.

In front of everyone, he comforted her, saying: "Grace, even though you’ve done these things, you’re still my sister. I won’t abandon you. Don’t cry."

Perhaps only someone as foolish as Zenon Xanco couldn’t see through this elementary level of acting.

Alex Rodriguez couldn’t have been uninvolved; he was just using his sister as a shield.

Behind these two incidents, he might even be the mastermind.

Poor Grace Rodriguez she hadn’t realized it yet.

Even though they did these things together, her brother faced no consequences, leaving Amalia shaking her head in her heart.

Since Zenon Xanco had a good attitude in admitting his mistake, a major offense was recorded.

And If he repeated the same mistake again, he would be expelled directly.

Director Gimenez, due to lax supervision and casually revealing his work email to family members at home, which led to the incident, was fined with half a year’s salary as a significant punishment.

"Amalia, due to human interference, your transfer application was rejected. However, if you still wish to transfer, you can apply again. No one will obstruct it," Dean Kirilova informed Amalia.

After Director Gimenez left with his nephew, Dean Kirilova sensed Professor Frans glancing at him.

He then smiled and brought up the topic of transferring to Amalia.

Amalia had anticipated this; she stayed back probably because of the transfer issue. "Thank you, Dean. But, I feel content with the current situation."

"Amalia, you should understand that there’s a significant difference between elective and major courses in artifact refining college. For elective courses, the school won’t assign a mentor to guide the students. You’re not just losing a small opportunity; it’s a mentor who could guide you in artifact refining for the next few years," Professor Frans couldn’t wait for Dean Kirilova to speak and blurted it out.

"Thank you, Professor Frans, but I still don’t want to switch," Amalia remained composed, and showed no sign of being swayed.

Professor Frans found her too stubborn.

Why not embrace a beneficial opportunity?

Dean Kirilova observed her for a while before speaking, "I heard from Mikel Sabate that your skills in artifact refining were taught by someone else. Is that the reason you don’t want a mentor?"

Amalia hesitated, "No."

If that were the reason, she wouldn’t have applied for a transfer in the first place.

The hidden expert was just an excuse she used to deflect attention.

"Then why?" Professor Frans inquired.

Amalia remained silent.

"In fact," Dean Kirilova suddenly said, "Whether she transfers or not doesn’t make much of a difference."

This remark was directed at Professor Frans.

Professor Frans furrowed his brows, "Do you also want her to waste her talents?"

"No, I haven’t finished. Although mentors are only assigned for major courses, the school doesn’t explicitly state that mentors cannot guide students in elective courses," Dean Kirilova hinted with a smile.

Both Amalia and Professor Frans were taken aback.

Amalia and Professor Frans were surprised.

The latter still wore a puzzled expression, and asked: "Wouldn’t that be irregular? Which mentor would be willing to do that?"

Guiding a student is akin to taking on an apprentice, which implies a deeper connection between them.

"You’ve always valued talent. Are you unwilling?" Dean Kirilova pointed directly at Professor Frans.

Professor Frans finally understood, his expression turning calm, "If she’s willing, I don’t mind."

"I believe Amalia would be very willing. With this, the matter is resolved. Alright, go back to your classes now," Dean Kirilova directly ushered both of them to go out.

Amalia didn’t really mind who guided her, but it seemed that Dean Kirilova and Professor Frans had made a decision without her consent. "Professor Frans, I..."

"From now on, call me Mentor," Professor Frans reverted to his cold, and sarcastic demeanor.

Since there was no ceremony involved, he didn’t care whether Amalia was willing or not.

"Mentor..." Amalia thought for a moment, realizing she had gained an advantage.

She didn’t dwell on the matter any further.

This flexibility pleased Professor Frans.

He liked smart students.

If someone was foolish enough to argue about this, he would rather not have such a student!

At that moment, Amalia’s communicator on her wrist rang.

The sound was distinctive, and it was specially configured for only one person.

That person was Kenny Lin.

"I’ll take my leave, Mentor." Amalia immediately bid farewell to Professor Frans.

Professor Frans didn’t say anything, he just waved his hand at her

Once Amalia left, he entered the dean’s office.

Don’t think she was like those foolish students.

Earlier, it was agreed that he would teach Amalia, and changing his mind without consulting her first wasn’t appropriate.

Kenny Lin’s message informed her that everything was fine.

The reason for the delayed response was because he encountered with a group of monsters.

In the disaster zone, the most dangerous were the deep-sea monsters, and followed by highly powerful groups of mutated monsters.

This time entering the disaster zone, his luck wasn’t that great.

They encountered a group of mutated monsters first, and some people were scattered after the attack.

Due to the inconvenience of video communication, Kenny Lin could only be sent a message to inform her.

Seeing that he had time to give her a reply with such a lengthy message, Amalia felt reassured.

She then advised him to be careful and prepared not to disturb him further when another message came through the communicator
