Warren considered the individual's words. Sure he might be temporarily renouncing the ability to learn the power of healing magic but he could always learn it later should he need to do so for whatever reason. Such a power could come in handy in the long run and provide him more than enough capability to down multiple opponents. Of course he had a lot to learn in 'practical applications' of the ability known as magic. So far he had not met anyone who derived their abilities solely from magic except those he had encountered so far today. Saint Walker could be considered someone who at least on some level knew magic because that ring of his wasn't pure science. "Fine. Let's get this crap started." The old man looked at Warren and around Warren would rise several pedestals each with items on them. On one of the pedestals was a sword that radiated an energy that even caused Warren to shudder a little. Next to it on another pedestal was a staff that had two forms. There were many other items including a Trident, a Book, a Wand and an amulet. There was a lot of stuff on the pedestals. "For your lessons to truly commence you must actually choose one of the items and select the path you permanently wish to follow. The paths are random and no two of them are the same. I will not tell you what is on each path."
Warren went over to each of the items and considered them. The staff seemed impressive looking and it's ability to be used for melee and ranged combat might come in handy. But the sword also had it's uses because the blade made even him terrified. Such a sword could possibly scare his enemies into submission, and a blade like that was definitely one that he could use. The amulet could act as a pool of magic for him to draw upon but he didn't see himself using something like that to make himself overwhelmingly powerful. There was no sense in becoming dependent on a magical relic of any variety after all because that dependency could be used against him in a real fight. "I still haven't decided..."
The old man groaned. "Take your time then, by all means."
