The great land lord Kalian rushed to Ianâs room quickly. He was surprised by Ianâs state. He couldnât help himself. Ianâs face, body, robe and even the floor was covered by blood
âWhat on earthâŠ.. Are you okay?â
âIâm fine.â
Answering the great land lordâs question, Ian stood up. Soon, blood stains on his face started to peel off like smashed bread crumbs.
âI was kind of shedding off my skin.â
âSkinâŠ.?â
The great lord thought about its meaning for a while.
But he couldnât come to any conclusion. What he saying was a mystery to him.
âHeâs weird just like the other mages.â
After a short evaluation, the great lord started his main topic.
âAh, I am so glad that youâre awake, by the way. Including my gratitude, I have so many things to say, but rushed into here to give you this.â
The great land lord handed him a crystal orb.
It was a mediator of the mana message that came from the communication post.
It was different to the communication orb.
âWhen you departed for the Great Grass Field, which was around 10 days ago, there was a message that came from the Ivory Tower. The message said that we must show this message whenever your mission was finished, but you faintedâŠ. Anyway, check it in haste.â
A message from the Ivory Tower?
What is going on?
Ian quickly received the crystal orb. Quickly, he injected mana to check the content.
âWait, before that, I have one more thing to give you.â
Then, the great lord Kalian pulled something from his inner pocket. It was a letter. It wasnât a mana letter that came through the communication post, but a âpaper letter,â that had emblem of the emperor on it.
âIt is a message straight from the emperor, his highness, through the messenger. The emperor strictly ordered me to show this only to you, by my very hand.
âThrough the messenger?â
âYes it is.â
The emperor chose to use a messenger and a paper letter, instead of using a communication post. It was risky method that might fail due to time delay. But he chose that way, for what reason?
âA letter that shouldnât be known to the Ivory Tower,â
Or due to the contents, the Ivory Tower might manipulate to delay the message on purpose. Anyway, both situations were evaluating into one conclusion. The letter must be something about against the will of the Ivory Tower.
âLetâs read the Ivory Towerâs message first.â
By injecting mana, blue letters were starting to be released. Familiarly, it was the typical phenomenon of the mana letter.
Something that may interrupt his mission?
Soon the next sentences were drawn on the sky.
There were a few extras things, but that was the core part of the content. In summary, there was an invasion, and guards arrested the stranger, and since the royalty and the Ivory Tower were caring for them, there was nothing to worry about this.
âThe Ivory Tower wants me to worry about them.â
They sent this letter to make Ian unstable, on purpose, obviously. However, problem was that it made Ian feel uncomfortable as it was intended. He wanted to go back to his family right now.
âLetâs decide on it after I read the emperorâs letter.â
Ian barely calmed down his mind.
Now, Ian started to read the emperorâs message.
Unlike the straight forwardness of the Ivory Towerâs letter, the emperorâs letter kept its form. Nevertheless he must have written this letter in a hasty situation. His letter was neat, but still gentle.
The emperor emphasized that he was asking for his favor, not ordering.
âWhy is it being held so early?â
Ian was surprised.
It supposed to be happened a few years later.
The past Ian had known had changed.
But, the situation was the same as his former life.
The most important point of this council was Ragnar.
From this council, he started to appeal himself and started to build his own social power quickly.
It was his debut stage for succeeding.
âIn my former life, it was a critical point where the Crown Prince started to fall.â
On the other hand, Ragnar showed his outstanding diplomatic skills at this council. As result, not only nobles, but even other people of the emperor acknowledged Ragnarâs talent, and acknowledged the Crown Princeâs uselessness.
There was indeed, a special reason the emperor sent this letter.
He was chasing a last hope.
He wished Ian Page might able to help the Crown Prince to become more than an idiot prince.
ââŠâŠ.â
Ian closed his eyes.
He started to evaluate this situation, by comparing his former life and current state.
âIt seems the Tower Lord planned this situation.â
Ian couldnât even be able to guess from since when he was involved.
Even the invasion from the Great Grass Field monsters might be one of his whole plan, or maybe some part of it. Ianâs head was filled with complex thinking. However, at this moment, he had to decide quickly.
âFamily or favor of the Emperor?â
Those strangers, who invaded the Ianâs mansion, could be sent by the Tower Lord, to bind down Ian to his home.
âHe knows me very well.â
Perhaps the Tower Lord hadnât stopped collecting information about Ian sneakily. He must have figured out that Ian was obsessed with his family. If the Tower Lord manipulated this event on purpose, he made a decent plan, indeed.
âI would rush to my family.â
Whether it was a deceiving movement or not, he wouldnât hesitate about it.
Until yesterday.
âPrecisely, just before a few minutes ago.â
Massive amounts of mana was flowing through Ianâs vein.
Ian entered to the 6th class without a doubt.
The level was achieved with the following title, âFirst 6th class humanâ.
(ED Note: Awwwww yeah. That moment when weâre 50 chapters in and hes already the strongest human at the ages of 18?17? I canât rememberâŠ)
â6th class has their own special 6th class magic.
Such magic that the Tower Lord wouldnât even dare to imagine.
Such magic that had no records left.
And Ian had reached the level where he could cast such magic.
The 6th class Archmage.
âHaha.â
Ian laughed lightly.
He only made such a smile when he felt superiority.
âWhat is going on? Whatâs on the letter?â
After a long silence, the great land lord asked curiously. Considering his characteristics, he waited a long time.
âGreat land lord.â
âI am listening.â
âI protected you and your territory, didnât I?â
Ian asked something out of topic.
But still, Kalian admitted it by nodding his head.
âOf course, you are the savior to me, this province, and its people.â
âThen can I ask you for one favor?â
âAnything you want. I was wondering how I may be able to repay the grace you have given to me.â

Kalian said while beating his chest with his fist.
Indeed, he was fitted better as a warrior, rather than a leader.
âPlease protect me for a while.â
Ianâs eyes were bright.
As a 6th class mage, he knew how to turn the tide.
