The attributes were incredible, with all of them surpassing 1000 points!
Arthur had 485 free points to use, but he still did not use it.
The destination of which Arthur would take after he left the planet was still unknown to him, so he opted to save his points for the time being.
He was not concerned at all, as no one on the planet could face him.
“I am the only rank five mage here,” thought Arthur, flying across the lands, reaching the Ouroboros School in no time.
There was a village with a harbor, and just like always, a student had been assigned to taking care of the area.
Arthur could tell just by looking at the man’s expression that it was a pain in the ass, but different from the other times, Arthur just flew across the village, straight toward the Ouroboros island.
Why would a mighty mage like him, who also knew the leader of the Ouroboros school, travel using a slow boat?
For him, it was way better to just fly, and when Arthur got close to the school, mages appeared high in the sky to stop him.
They were all youths, all rank-one, except for one who was already at rank-two.
“Who are you? Speak it now or we will kill you?” the youth who was rank-two said.
It was a man with short black hair, and green eyes, with a scar on his right eye.
Arthur could not hold his giggle at hearing what the man said, making him even more angered.
“What’s funny, huh? This is the strongest school on this continent, so you better humble yourself!”
More and more mages appeared in the sky, gazing at the mysterious people who arrived without prior announcement.
No one there had the power to see through them, but there was someone who knew who Arthur was.
“Arthur? Sister?”
A gorgeous blond haired woman with a flawless skin, looking like a doll of how perfect she was.
“Eleonora!”
She had changed a lot during those years. Eleonora had a more mature look, which made her look even better, but the most extraordinary thing was how much her power increased in that short period!
“Peak rank three?”
Arthur knew rank three mages were rare in the central continent, and for the other students around them to not fear Eleonora’s presence meant they did not know she was that strong!
“Old Nefion probably made her hide her strength. Is he doing the same?” thought Arthur as he looked at Eleonora, who came running straight toward Jane for a hug.
“I missed you, sister!”
Both Jane and Eleonora could not hold their tears of joy, and all the other students from Ouroboros could not understand what was happening.
After hugging Jane, Eleonora hugged Arthur, and then Wisa and Sybille hugged.
“May I know what is happening here? Who do you think you are to speak with outsiders without my permission?” the rank-two mage said with an arrogant tone.
“Oh? They also don’t know Eleonora is Nefion’s daughter?”
If they knew that, no way that mage would act so rude to her. Arthur wanted to punch the man in the face, but restrained himself.
“Please, call Nefion, and shut up, worm,” Arthur said.
The youth had his face all red, burning with anger as he said, “what did you say?”
Then he opened up his palm, and a ray of shadows flew toward Arthur.
That was a spell only a rank two mage could cast, meaning the youth was trying to attack Arthur for good!
“Useless,” Arthur muttered, blocking the powerful spell using only his right hand!
He did not cast any protections, nothing. The power of his body was more than enough to block that spell, sending terror to anyone who saw it.
“W-Who are you?” the youth said after seeing his spell vanish as if it was nothing.
The mage was scared and could not hold his shaky legs. He could not even keep an eye contact with Arthur, afraid he would die out of a sudden.
“Just call Nefion.”
Arthur could storm through the barrier, but he did not want to upset Nefion, and even warm the school’s barrier. If he did that, then they would have to fix it, and resources too!
So, he waited for Nefion to show up, which did not take long. An old man with a long white beard flew toward Arthur, giving him a hug, and then a slap at the top of his head.
“Why didn’t you send me a message first? Now you had to stand here like an idiot. Come on,” Nefion said, making hand signs for Arthur and his wives to follow him through the school, straight to the main building where his personal room was.
“Don’t mind my students. They are just kids,” said Nefion as they went inside his personal room, the same one Arthur had visited once.
“I know, I know. How’s things going, anyway?”
“Pretty good. As you can tell, my daughter reached peak rank three, and her dragon powers are awakening! She can also turn into her dragon form now, although it only lasts for a limited time.”
Nefion spoke about Eleonora with clear pride in his voice, happy to see her grown in strength.
“But what about you? I cannot feel your power, yet I should because we are both rank-four, right?”
That question was exactly what Arthur was waiting. The perfect time to boast about his achievements.
A silence fell down on that room, and the bright smile of Arthur made Nefion lost his mind with the possibility.
“Y-You are rank five? This is the first time in ages that a dragon recovered much of its strength. This is… this is a time to celebrate!”
Nefion was not jealous. He was happy that the dragons were returning to their peak power, and for the first time in ages, a dragon returned to rank five!
Well, on that planet, that is. There were still vampires on the biggest planet where the Alliance was, and those had superior strength.
Yet, none of them ever had the power of Placidusax. It was only a matter of time before Arthur to recover that power and surpass it!
“A party tonight. What do you say? Drinks, beautiful ladies, and- “Nefion felt three intimidating gazes aimed straight at him.
“Oh, right? No beautiful ladies, only your three wives, hehe.”
Jane, Wisa, and Sybille nodded in approval after hearing that. As for Eleonora, she could only laugh at the situation.
After their conversation was over, every single student of Ouroboros knew about the party, and even the one responsible for taking care of the harbor returned to take part.
It was a time to relax, as Arthur would have to free George soon, and he hoped things would work out…
