n“Hmph! I’ll feign ignorance of your rudeness because of your peasant identity! So remember this name! I’m the son of the royal head magician, Albus Theodore!” (Albus)

n“…” Oz flatly stared at Albus and enter the wagon, totally ignoring him.

n“Nice to meet you, sir Albus Theodore,” Alfred lightly bow as he greeted,

n“Eh?” (Oz)

n“Nice to meet you too, sir Albus Theodore,” Sen and Edraele follow suit.

n“It’s rare for you to greet a noble, Alfred,” Oz exclaimed in surprise.

n“Because he’s different from the other **ty nobles, Ren. Maybe he talks like that, but he’s the one who built several orphanages at the capital, he’s also famous for his kindness to the Demi-humans,” Said Alfred.

n“Seriously?” Oz asked as he observed the fat noble once more.

n“Please stop, it’s my honor to be praised by the demon siblings of Rain Rage. But the one who manages the orphanages is my father and the sword god, Golden Kyron, not me,” Said Albus with a totally different tone from before, as if his arrogant tone before is just an act.

n(That old geezer, huh) (Oz)

n“I well informed about the demon siblings who had reached the sword saint rank at such a young age, rumors said that a sword saint genius only appears every 50 years, and only people above 40s that managed to reached that rank. But these genius siblings manage to reach that level at such a young age. It really made an uproar to the whole kingdom,” Albus said with a calm tone.

n“Said the person who reached the archmage rank at the same age as us,” Said Sen mixed with sarcasm.

n“What I mean is, I knew about this trio, but who are you? I heard nothing about the demon siblings had a friend,” Asked Albus.

n(Hm… I wonder how I should answer that question…) (Oz)

n(Why don’t you answer with your usual cool act, “I’m Oz, a magician,” and stylishly smirk?) (Fenrir)

n(Y-you’re mocking me, huh, Fenrir? No dinner for you today!) (Oz)

n(N-no! I’m just giving you a suggestion… Please give me my dinner!) (Fenrir)

n(You deserve that punishment, Fenrir) (Reo)

n(Reo you traitor! Even though you’re the one who suggested to me to say that!) (Fenrir)

n(R-Reo… No dinner for you too!) (Oz)

n(W-what!!!????) (Reo)

n“Hm… He’s the new leader of us,” Said Alfred cheerfully.

n“Since when do I become your leader?” Rebuked Oz.

n“Yea, since when does he become our leader?” Sen follows suit.

n“Fine, fine. Let’s save your introduction for later. How about you? Could you introduce yourself?” Albus asked the blond youth who is sitting at the corner of the wagon.

nThe blond youth looked like a noble, his graceful and elegant demeanor will make anyone thought of him as a young noble. He got a handsome and charismatic face, his blue eyes reminded Oz to someone, he had a sword at his waist so he must be a swordsman.

nThe blond youth stands and said: “My name is Peter Robert, nice to meet you,” elegantly.

n“Nice to meet you too, my name is Albus. Robert… I never heard that noble name before,” Muttered Albus as he tried to recall the name.

n“I’m not a noble, sir Albus,” Said Peter with a kind smile.

n(T-this guy’s smile is so kind-hearted) (Oz)

n“Please drop the ‘sir’ thing, you guys too, it’s annoying to be formal all the time,” Said Albus.

nOz sits next to Alfred and whispered: “You’re right, he’s a good egg,” With a smile.

n“Told you so,” answered Alfred.

n“Hey! You guys ready!? Off we go then!” The coachman uncle said enthusiastically.

n(We Haven’t even answered yet, uncle…) (Oz)

n(The next destination is the Grandaria Capital… I wonder what it looks like) (Oz)

nThe group chatted several topics on the trip, they unexpectedly made strange chemistry in this irregular group. Albus conversed with Oz and the trio without holding any restraint, and they became friends in an instant. Peter only join the chat sometimes, he still restraint himself from showing his true personality, but it could be seen that he enjoyed chatting with the group too.

nWhen the afternoon came, they had run out of topic to converse, Oz secretly glanced at Peter with an amused gaze a few times.

n(This guy… He’s hiding something) (Oz)

n“Appraisal…” Oz silently muttered.

n?????????

n?????????

n?????????

n?????????

n“Wha?” Exclaimed Oz, surprised.

n(Maybe he uses something like a magic item or a magic artifact, master) (Fenrir)

n(Huh? Does anyone else had an appraisal skill too?) (Oz)

n(Not a skill, it’s a spell actually, a high-leveled mind spell) (Fenrir)

n(I see, so he even took such extreme counter to an appraisal, he must be hiding it because of something) (Oz)

n(Y-you’re thinking something bad again, huh, master?) (Reo)

n(Nope, not at all, I’ll look at his status later, it’s been a while since I cultivate, I must not slack off) (Oz)

nOz changed his sitting posture to a crossed-legs position, he closes his eyes and took a deep breath. The five people inside the wagon watch him carefully, full of interest, but Oz pays them no heed.

n“This guy, don’t tell me, he’s cultivating?” Asked Albus with a wry smile.

n“Yup, he is,” (Alfred)

n“At this moving wagon?” (Albus)

n“Yea, relax, you’re not the first one to be surprised looking at him like this,” Said Sen.

n“Ren is weird,” Said Edraele.

n“Edraele… You sure choose the right moment to mock people, huh. Well, there are only three words that suit him, weird, unknown, and mysterious,” Said Alfred with a shrug.

n“Strong, I hate to admit it, but he’s strong,” The quiet Sen suddenly cut in.

nAlfred a little bit surprised when he heard Sen said that, but he just smiled and said: “It’s true, he’s strong,”

n“For these guys to say someone strong…” Albus slowly muttered to himself as he observes Oz with narrowed eyes.

nOz had concentrated all of his focus to observe the spin of his qi flow at his meridians, slowly but steady, and by flowing the mana at his body too, his body started to feel warm. Both of his qi and mana is increasing at a steady pace, both of the cultivation energy is at their bottlenecks, the pace of the circulation had become slower as Oz’s still searching for the key to breakthrough the bottlenecks.

nJust right when Oz got more indulged in his cultivation, the feeling of sitting inside a wagon changes, Oz opened his eyes and found out that the scenery had changed.

n“Where is this…” (Oz)

nA barren and inhabited land, there is only red rocks, no trees, no animals, but malice enveloped the place, the aura of hatred, evil, corruption, and darkness could be felt everywhere.

nOz observed the place calmly, the feeling is the same as when he uses the goblin king clone form. Oz looked at his hands.

n“What the hell?” (Oz)

nHe’s using the magician suit that he always used when he’s on earth. Even his magician hat is on top of his head. Oz tried to summon his ataraxia staff and the ataraxia staff appeared.

n“I could still summon the staff and the cards, but I couldn’t emit my mana at all. It looks like this is my old body…”Oz muttered as he keeps on analyzing the situation.

n“Fenrir! Reo! Are you there!?” Oz tried to call out for the two spirits, but there is no answer.

n“I’m alone, huh,” (Oz)

n“Nope, You’re not,” A familiar deep voice suddenly appeared behind of Oz. With a quick move, Oz threw a card, aiming for the figure’s head.

nBut the figure easily captured the card Oz thrown.

n“Appraisal,” Muttered Oz. The card he just threw is the appraisal card! The appraisal could only give the most accurate status when the target touched the card, in such a short moment, Oz planned it inside his head.

nType: Demon Great Emperor

nlevel: 542

nStrength: 200,000,000

nAgility: 350,000,000

nVitality: 600.000.000

nMana: 600,000,000

nSpiritual: 900,000,000

nSkills: ?????????????????????????

n(W-what the **!? Level 542!?) (Oz)

n(D-demon great emperor!?) (Oz)

nOz immediately prepared his stance and observed the figure who just appeared. Somehow, Oz felt that he ever saw the figure somewhere.

n(That horns…) (Oz)

n!!!

n(T-this guy… He’s the demon emperor that battled with the spirit kings from Fenrir’s and Reo’s memories!) (Oz)

n“I see… You just checked my status from this card, huh?” (Demon Emperor)

n!?

nOz immediately retrieves his appraisal card to his spatial card deck in panic.

n“Spatial inventory, huh? Interesting…” Muttered the demon emperor with an amused expression.

n“You… Who the hell are you?” Asked Oz with a firm voice and expression. If people who know him at the Ablux continent saw him, they won’t believe that this is Oz. His usually calm and laid back demeanor is gone, his eyes full of coldness and killing intent.

n“Me?” Asked the demon emperor as he suddenly vanished.

n“Don’t you saw my status just now?” He suddenly appeared from Oz’s back.

nBoom!

nWhen the demon emperor’s voice appeared from Oz’s back, he immediately strikes the demon emperor with his ataraxia staff at a high speed. But Oz hit nothing but air! The demon emperor disappeared and reappears at Oz’s front.

n“Well, since I’m the one who summoned you, let me introduce myself properly. I am the great emperor of the demons, Asmodeus! Now, will you introduce yourself too?” Said the demon emperor.

n“….I’m Oz. A magician,” Oz answered shortly.

n“Hm… Then dear magician Oz, why did you appear here?” The atmosphere suddenly changed when the demon emperor asked this question.

n“Hm?” (Oz)

n“I collected my power slowly to summon the heroes that will face me in the future, I made this plan to make sure to limit their growth, but why does you, who didn’t even have the hero seed inside of you to appear here?” asked the demon emperor.

n“I don’t know…” (Oz)

n(How the hell could I know?) (Oz)

n!!??

nBoom!

nThe demon emperor suddenly vanished and attacked Oz from his behind. Oz immediately noticed it but he managed to dodge it. Oz tried to estimate his current qi cultivation realm, and he found a pleasant surprise.

n!!??

n(This dense and powerful qi… This color… Impossible… This is the God-King realm! It’s only one rank behind the absolute Earth Monarch Realm! Even my former body hasn’t reached this realm yet, why does this body suddenly reach this realm?) (Oz)

n“Hm? I struck intending to instantly kill you. To be able to dodge my strike, it seems it’s not a stroke of bad luck to summon you here, you might be more troublesome than the heroes in the future,” Said the demon emperor with an evil smirk.

n“Magician Oz, fight me, it’s been a long time since I fought someone, amuse me!” The demon emperor said with a smirk of a battle maniac.

nSeeing the demon emperor’s battle maniac expression, Oz’s battle maniac spirit lits up too.

nOz smirked.

n“I accept your challenge demon, let’s fight!” Said Oz with full of vigor.

n—Inside the wagon—

n“R-ren?” (Alfred)

nA terrifying red wind suddenly enveloped Oz’s body and form a small red typhoon inside the wagon.

n“W-what is happening!?” (Sen)

n
