"Have you seen the leaderboard rankings?" The old man asked.
Elder Galvin calmly nodded his head. The news is spreading like wildfire. And it was done by the Sub-Taboo hall brat. Of course, he was aware of it.
"Look, I don't want to beat around the bush. Are there any chances for that kid to clear the remaining floors?" The old man asked.
"Remaining floors?" Elder Galvin touched his white beard again. He was shocked by the dean's words.
What is he planning? He doesn't know how to respond for a moment. Because only Gilbert has a clear understanding of Vincent's strength. So he thought Gilbert is a better person to answer this question.
"Dean, I'm not sure. But that kid Gilbert has a close relationship with Vincent Carey. Maybe he knows about his strength?" Elder Galvin replied.
The old man squinted his eyes. He remembered the face of that kid.
"Alright, let him come here," The old man said.
Hearing that Elder Galvin nodded his head before issuing a summoning to Gilbert Reese.
After that two of them remained silent. Elder Galvin can see that the dean is thinking about something.
Shortly after, Gilbert Reese arrived at the tower. Like Galvin, he too guessed the reason behind the summoning.
Since the people are old monsters. He didn't want to be rude. After entering the cabin, he saw 2 people in the room.
"Gilbert Reese, come here," The old man said.
Hearing that Gilbert Reese walked forward and stood beside Elder Galvin.
The old man nodded before asking, "How much do you know about Vincent Carey?"
Hearing that Gilbert's eyes flickered. But he quickly answered, "I came to know him when he joined Sub-Taboo Hall. Not many can awaken Sub-Taboo magic."
Elder Galvin nodded his head as well. This was the same case with him. Vincent's case was unique. Unlike the Elemental Hall and the Bloodline Hall.
The Sub-Taboo Hall rarely gets new students.
The old man wasn't surprised by the answer. Then he decided to jump to the main topic.
"The reason I have summoned you guys here is for an important reason."
"I can't directly help Vincent Carey. But I can support him through other means. For example resources and high-grade potions."
The old man said to them.
Gilbert Reese was shocked to the core. Dean's answer caught him off guard. He had trust in the Dean's power. Though the Bloodline Hall does outright bullying.
But he had always believed in the Dean. So he wasn't able to digest the words. He had given a word to Vincent that the dean will take care of everything.
So his face turned ugly right now. He then saw Elder Galvin's face. He was much better. Like he had expected this outcome before.
"Dean, I assured that kid that you would help him. I thought you would do something to punish the bloodline hall people," Gilbert replied.
"Gilbert?" Elder Galvin looked at him with a serious gaze. Gilbert's behavior was rude. Gilbert might not understand. But Galvin can guess one or two things.
He didn't expect Bloodline Hall's influence to be extended to such a level. Even the dean was helpless.
The old man sighed inwardly. He didn't get offended by Gilbert's words. But rather he feels even more guilty.
As a dean, he wasn't able to implement some strict measures.
"Alright, I know your troubles. But trust me things are not that simple. If that kid wants to survive, he has to clear the remaining floors."
"Then I'll be able to do something considering his talent. So tell me if he needs anything right now to improve his strength," The old man said.
Gilbert and Elder Galvin looked at each other. They can see that the dean was serious with his words.
Gilbert's expression turned solemn. He is aware that the dean might be looking old. But he is a level-10 Supreme Wizard.
Who can pressurize the level-10 wizard? Gilbert's heart was confused. On the other hand, Elder Galvin confirmed something in his heart.
"Are those sleeping powerhouses awake?" He asked himself. Other than that he couldn't think of anyone else pushing Dean to the corner.
Gilbert regains clarity in his thoughts. Since the dean wants to provide resources to help Vincent. Then he should contact Vincent right now.
"Dean, give me 5 minutes. I'll talk to him right now," Gilbert Reese replied.
"Go outside and talk," The old man nodded his head before saying.
Gilbert left the meeting room but he didn't leave the tower. Outside of the room, he contacted Vincent.
A few minutes later,
Gilbert walked back into the room.
The old man and Elder Galvin looked at him.
"What does he want?" The old man asked.
Gilbert Reese revealed a bitter smile before answering, "Vincent wants a large number of recovery potions and mana core formation potion "
Elder Galvin understands the requirement of the recovery potions. Because without the help of recovery potions, it's difficult to clear the remaining floors.
But what's with the mana core formation potion?
The old man asked, "Looks like he reached level-5 recently. Then why does he want the core formation potion?"
Gilbert became hesitant before answering, "He wants to save it for the future. Because that item can't be bought outside through a normal channel."
Hearing that Galvin nodded his head before commenting, "I understand now. That kid doesn't have a background. He probably wants to use this chance to collect this item."
Sigh~
A sigh escaped from the old man's mouth. The request was not overbearing. These items can be given to Vincent Carey without any problem.
"How sure was he?"
"Can he clear the remaining floors?" The old man asked.
Gilbert Reese replied, "Vincent Carey told me that it was not a problem for him to clear the remaining floors."
A quick glint flashes in Elder Galvin's eyes.
The old man was also surprised before letting out a small laugh.
"Ha...Ha...Ha..."
"Good"
"Then my worries are unnecessary."
"You can collect the resources from the Treasure Hall and give it to the kid later."
"I hope he does what he says," He said.
Gilbert Reese left the room. His job was over. Though he wasn't happy with the dean's arrangement. But he knows something is better than nothing.
He also noticed Elder Galvin's solemn face. Maybe he knows something. Gilbert thought it was not the right place to inquire. So he decided to confront him later.
After a few minutes, Elder Galvin left the tower. Nobody knows about their meeting.
