"If possible, I'd like to stay and teach at the Tower of Stars," Paulina said quickly. It was clear she had given this some thought already.
Kano steepled his fingers, only speaking after a moment. "To be honest, Paulina, it would be easy for me to hire you as a teaching assistant, just like Rorschach is now. But becoming a full instructor... that is indeed difficult. Snow was also exceptional, but as you know, the only way he could stay was to join the Alchemy Department."
Paulina nodded, showing she understood. Master Kano continued, "But you aren't suited for the Alchemy Department. You... have wasted a lot of time. Compared to this place, you might be a better fit working for the Magic Guild. I will write a letter of recommendation for you.
A job at the Guild would still allow you to stay in Valuva, and you could still see Pascal often. You could see each other every day if you wanted—just not during the day." Kano finished with a mischievous smile.
