Comments of chapter undefined of Symphonic Odyssey

I’m sort of confused as to why he wants to “reach the top”. I mean is it because of the fairytales he read? Even then thats surely more about being skilled and heroic than being the head of this magick order. I dunno I just feel like he hasn’t really got any motivation beyond being free of servitued and doing Molly proud. Certainly nothing like a dire need or perhaps a deep fasination with magic that would spurr him onward to make such a conviction.
