"Become your disciple?" Shang asked.
Shang remembered the Dean's other two disciples.
One was Vice-Dean Soran, and Shang knew him very well.
Then, there was that other girl. Shang had only seen her once, which was when she had watched Shang's exam.
If Shang remembered correctly, her name was Viera, and he also remembered that she had a crush on Soran.
"Yes," the Dean said. "To give you help more easily, you have to become my disciple. Of course, this won't just be a means to an end. I take my disciples seriously, and it is my duty to help them reach the True Path Stage."
Shang remained silent for a bit as he mulled over the decision.
Become the Dean's disciple?
…
"I agree," Shang said.
"Good," the Dean said with a nod. "Then, you are now my disciple."
Silence.
"That's it?" Shang asked.
