Chapter 11: Chapter 11
Joining different groups, I began to actively clear the dungeons. It was not easy to fight side by side with new people every time. There was little or no teamwork. Each fought alone with his opponents, occasionally helping others. A month passed at such a pace, and I came to the realization that without a proper teacher I would not go far.
- I remember, Henry is in my debt, why not ask him to hire a teacher for me? Already an aristocrat will find someone better. Yes, I will do so. - nodding to myself, I left the hotel room and began to look for the place of residence of my former comrade.
I didn't have to look for a long time, and here I was standing in front of a double-leaf gate made of metal rods painted brown. The building that I saw in front of me was striking in scale, unusual architectural elements and luxury.
- Good afternoon, I came to Henry Black - I said going up to the guard, and at the bewildered look of the man I took out the ring.
- You are probably Mr. Aaron, - he said opening the gate - I have been informed of your possible visit, please come in, the butler will come up and accompany you to the master.
- Good.
A few minutes later, I was approached by an elderly man dressed in a classic butler suit, whom I followed into the mansion. I kept looking around with interest as I passed through the park, which had many beautiful gardens. In a past life, I had never seen such a luxurious place, so I looked around mesmerized.
"Please come in," the butler opened the door for me.
Going inside and passing through several rooms, I found myself in a richly decorated inn, where I was seated by the fireplace.
- The owner will come after a while, if you need anything call me - the butler bowed and left the room, leaving me alone.
"Well, it looks like Henry has a high position in society, I'm definitely lucky!"
Rejoicing at my first contacts in this world, I noticed how a young man I knew appeared in the opening.
- Hello Aaron, long time no see - the black-haired man flopped down on a nearby chair with a tired look.
- And hello to you, I see that you are all in business - I said with a chuckle.
"Hah," he sighed wearily, "You can see everything yourself, I would gladly return to the life of an adventurer." Can you tell me what went through during the time we did not see each other?
"Why not, I don't have anyone to talk to lately, so I'll be glad to have your company." Once…
- An hour later -
- That's how I decided to find a teacher for myself - I finished telling, having drunk another sip of tea.
- Sure, I can help you with that. Our family has a familiar spellcaster who can adequately train you. Henry said thoughtfully, whose words lifted my spirits.
- Excellent! When can I meet him?
- Hmm, I'll give him an invitation to dinner tomorrow. Just know that I'm only organizing your meeting, and whether he will take you as a student depends only on you. But with your talent, I think everything will go well.
- Then I need to get ready to make a good first impression - I got up from my chair, about to leave.
- Wait, you will stay with me for the night, and tomorrow the servants will prepare you for dinner.
- But…
- No, but, you're my guest, so make yourself at home. Henry said forcefully.
- ..Okay, thanks for the hospitality - I said sitting back.
- This is the least I can do - he reluctantly stood up - You will prepare a guest room. I've got work to do, see you later.
- OK, good luck.

Opening my eyes and half-rising, I yawned, getting up from a large and so comfortable bed.
- I have to go ... - I said bitterly, changing into home clothes and leaving the room.
- Good morning, young master. The owner has ordered that you be served breakfast, the butler, standing a little way from the door, informed me.
"I feel embarrassed by this treatment, no matter how I get used to it…"
- Good, I need to do a warm-up, and then wash.
- Okay, breakfast will be served as soon as you finish. Do you need my accompaniment? – Keeping an indifferent face he asked.
- No, I can handle it.
- As you wish - the butler turned around, starting to leave.
After completing a set of exercises for warming up, I washed my face. Before I started washing, servants began to pester me, offering their help. Having miraculously fought them off, I was able to calmly wash in ... the bathroom!
I had breakfast on my own, so when I finished I went to the butler. I needed a place to practice.
- Is there a training ground?
- Yes, young master. Follow me.

*Here**Here*
Dispelling the fire arrow I created, I opened the door, behind which stood an old man who stubbornly refused to give his name.
- Dinner will start soon, here are your clothes, - they pulled me a black suit, - Do you need help?
Behind him appeared the maids, who were ready to immediately start changing my clothes.
- Not. - quickly closing the door, just in case on the lock, I began to undress.
"Sits well!" - spinning around the mirror with a smile, I assessed my appearance - "Now you can go"
As I walked towards the cafeteria, I was nervous about my upcoming meeting with the teacher.
The need for a teacher appeared due to the fact that I was not a magician in a past life, and I was only superficially familiar with mana, so I did not amuse myself with the fact that I could become a strong self-taught. It was now that I was making progress, but a mistake here, a mistake there, and now I can't do anything stronger than a fireball. In almost a year of being in this world, apart from the fireball, earth bullets and spikes, I have not been able to learn more spells. All at least some strong spells are kept secret, within the families of hereditary magicians, so I needed a good teacher.
When I got to the door, I took a long breath, trying to look as calm as possible.
- It's time...
