<h4>Chapter 36: Future Ambitions</h4>


    ( Dorm C-54 )


    Rocky sat awkwardly with his two roommates in themon hall of the dorm after helping Erin get settled.


    Buhara, after making the mistake of squishing Erin''s hand, was keeping his distance from the dude, as he felt visibly guilty for hurting him.


    " Rocky, human, Buhara did not want to hurt Erin, Buhara had no idea Erin is a small baby, please apologize for Buhara" Buhara said to Rocky, as he apologized to Erin on Buhara''s behalf.


    "It''s okay! It''s quite impressive that you have such strong hands, Buhara" said Erin, epting Buhara''s apology, as thankfully he seemed to be an easy going guy who did not take unintended mistakes to heart.


    " So, what are you guys nning to major in?" Asked Rocky to break the awkward silence as Erin was the first to answer.


    "I want to primarily be a curse mage, I want to excel in the art of supportivebat and wish to pursue it as my major" said Erin as Rocky nodded in understanding.


    He had expected as much from Erin since he was a follower of the church of vanity who were known to be excellent curse magic mages.


    " It''s a very sensible goal, and judging by how well you practice the word curse, I''d say you''re well suited for it" Rocky said honestly, as Erin blushed and said " No you sir Rocky, are too kind with your assessment, I''m not that special".


    Rolling his eyes, Rocky chose to ignore the typical church of vanity reply as he pped Buhara on his rock hard biceps.


    *TAP*


    *TAP*


    " And what about you big guy? What sort ofbat major are you going to choose?" Asked Rocky, fully expecting Buhara to choose a major in bing a berserker, tank or a frontlinebat job.


    But contrary to his expectations, Buhara said "Buhara wishes to be an elemental mage. Buhara is blessed with affinity for all four elements. He has decided to be a mage"


    Rocky looked at Buhara, then his massive nine feet tall body with rippling muscles and then at his choice of wanting to be a mage, as for a moment words just would not form in his mouth.


    " I think it''s a great choice! It''s admirable that strong orc Buhara has affinity for all four elements, I''m most impressed" Erin said as Buhara began tough out loud like an orc.


    " Buhahahahara"


    Orcs were generally not very blessed with the maniption of mana, which was why rarely did an orc ever choose to be a mage.


    Approximately, only one in ten thousand orc children had any real talent in magic with those children usually bing the Shaman Orcs of the tribe, responsible for healing and curse removal.


    A purely elemental orc mage was almost unheard of, which was why Rocky found Buhara''s choice to be odd.


    " Buhara, have you thought about maybe bing a Berserker?


    Axe in both hands, ughtering puny elves, humans and vampires in your way?


    I think that''s a better path for you-" Rocky said, as he hoped to steer Buhara in the right direction with his counseling, however, Buhara''s reply stumped Rocky once more.


    " Buhara''s father is the great chieftain Duhara.


    In his entire life, chieftain Duhara never lost a fight.


    But one day, a magee to Duhara''s n, defeat everyone including Duhara.


    That day Duhara decide


    His son Buhara will be mage" Buhara said emotionally, as Rocky could not even decide how to refute that logic.


    *Sigh*


    Sighing deeply, Rocky decided to let it be, as he just epted the fact that his roommates were as weird as weird got.


    " What about you? Sir Rocky? What do you wish to major in?" Asked Erin as Rocky clutched his palm and excitedly said "I''ll be a swordsman"


    "Not just a single sword wielder either, I shall be a dual sword wielder"


    " Oooo, you do seem like the heroic type sir Rocky, what an admirable choice" said Erin, while Buhara pped his back hard and gave him a thumbs up sign.


    "Dual wielding is the sign of a True Male! More female will wish to copte with you" Buhara said, as Rocky awkwardly smiled at his assessment.


    " Ooo ooo, I know what we should do, great roommates, we should go in as this semester''s three man team together!


    One curse/ support mage


    One assault mage


    One swordsman.


    Seems like a very well bnced group to me" suggested Erin, as his eyes sparkled with excitement.


    " Buhara will be honored to fight alongside the blonde baby and man Rocky" said Buhara as both turned their heads towards Rocky.


    Truth be told, Rocky did not wish to go in as a team with these two, and he was not afraid to offend them either by telling them ''no'' to their face.


    However, he remembered Karna''s words about how he could never be sure about the intentions of other people trying to get closer to him once his identity as a champion was revealed, and since these two were this friendly to him without knowing his background, Rocky felt like he could trust these two guys at the least.


    Since he had no idea for how long his identity in this university would remain hidden, he did not want to take the risk of fraternizing and looking for teammates that could potentially be with him only for his status and for this sole reason alone, he decided to say ''Yes''.


    And in this way, the roommates became teammates for the semester.
