Finnian shot a glance at his disciple, who was as cunning as a fox, hiding schemes behind every hair on his head, and another who was so simple-minded it was almost infuriating.

Gritting his teeth and against his better judgment, he nodded, "Indeed, my disciple may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but he's the one I see the most potential in."

He almost stumbled over his words but managed to keep his composure.

After all, today's star was his dear little Leopold.

As long as today's event went smoothly, he could retire in peace.
