Genius

The next day, Arena master Fin approaches Aaron early in the morning. With no surprise in his tone, he [Fin] expressed. "Smart, very smart."

Knowing that it had something to do with Aucia's offer, but not understanding where Fin is going with this. So he [Aaron] has to ask, "What do you mean? Is that good?"

"Most definitely." And with a more welcoming smile, Arena master Fin continues. "Arthur Hare has demanded you have the freedom to train and eat in his school."

"But I'll have to become a champion to get my freedom, Aucia filled me in yesterday." Aaron answers as he takes a swing on the training dummy in front, refusing to cut training short.

"Exactly." Now Fin wants to compliment the buff Aaron a little bit, by adding. "I guess smart people can appreciate smart people."

Stopping for a second, he glances at Fin and with a smile across the face and jokes. "Heck of a step for a guy who almost died in your dungeons ha?"
