The wizard world.
The Gem Sea.
On the blue surface of the sea, a purple shadow slowly appeared in the air.
PA
Water splashed in the air as Angele left the sea with a wet body. He stood on the water with a serious expression on his face.
‘Merfolk of the west coast had a way to open a dimension tunnel… I didn’t expect that. Maybe the situation is more complicated than I thought…’
He blinked his eyes and thought for a while.
‘Whatever, I need to go to the underground world. I can visit the school first and see if the Rio Family is still doing well. I have many things to do. I shouldn’t waste time.’
Red light flashed on his body and his body was quickly dried. He leaned to the side and started flying to his hometown.
Several days later, in the afternoon.
The harbor of the Andes Alliance.
The pink sunlight illuminated the busy harbor.
The workers quickly carried the goods off the ship and then loaded the new packages to the cabin. The leader of the workers was yelling at the workers while whipping the ground.
There were some white umbrellas on the street beside the sea. There were nobles and merchants chatting under the umbrellas.
The street lamps were lighted by energy particles. There were carriages under the light. There were also sailors, guards, and foreigners walking on the busy street.
There were dozens of ships anchored in the harbor’s shell-shaped bay, including luxurious private ships and fishing boats. Most of the private ships were owned by the merchants.
It was the busiest time of the day in the harbor.
A ray of red light suddenly appeared in the sky, arriving at the harbor within seconds and floating above the ships quietly. Several seconds later, the light faded away and a man appeared.
Angele was wearing a long purple robe as he was floating in the sky, overlooking the harbor below. The wind was blowing into his long robe, which was dancing in the sky.
The people on the street raised their heads after they noticed that someone just appeared in the sky. The noble girls were yelling excitedly, but most of the people looked scared.
The busy street suddenly quieted down. It felt like that someone pressed pause while watching a movie.
They were all looking at the man in the sky.
It’s a wizard!
I’ve only read about the wizards in novels!
Oh, lord! A real wizard!
Suddenly, the people on the street started cheering and screaming in excitement. They were pointing at Angele and some of them even ran to Angele while waving their hands.
Angele’s brow furrowed, and the scorpion mark between his brow flashed.
The people who pointed at him all groaned and fell to the ground. Their faces turned pale and they could barely stand up.
The people who were cheering were all frightened. They started running away and there were children crying.
Angele wanted to calm them down but he noticed that there were three white shadows that were moving to him in the sky.
This is the harbor of Andes Alliance, may I ask who you are and why you are here?
Angele was questioned by an old woman that was staring at him. There were also two men in white robes following the old woman. Their bodies were supported by an invisible force.
Angele glanced at them and quickly checked their power level. The old woman was a formal rank 1 wizard. The two men were rank 2 and rank 3 apprentices.
Are you a wizard that guards this place?
he asked.
No…
The old woman smiled.
We were just passing by and noticed your presence. Your energy wave is so strong that it’s hard to ignore. Do you want to meet the wizard that guards this place? From what I know, the Andes Alliance is not guarded by any wizard. There was a couple of rank 3 apprentices from the White Tooth Castle here.
She tried to check Angele’s power level but failed and thus decided to approach the man politely.
I left this place when I was young and traveled around the world for years. I want to visit my family.
Angele went straight to the point. He noticed that the two apprentices were having trouble staying in the sky.
We can land on the ground and talk.
Sure.
They slowly landed on the empty street of the harbor. The mortals already escaped and hid in different places. Angele could feel that there were people looking at him. / update by box novel.com
He was not concerned. Angele saw that there was a white horse with a chubby man on its back moving to them as they landed on the ground. The chubby man was sweating heavily. He fell to the ground and rolled to Angele.
Master! Master! I’m an apprentice that works for the harbor! May I ask…
Angele repeated the word he just said to the old woman.
The chubby man was excited.
Master, did you say that you went to a wizard school from our harbor? May I ask your name?
Name? I’m Angele, Angele Rio. The school I went to was called Ramsoda School.
Angele had no reason to hide his background and told them his name. He wanted to make sure that his name would help his family.
The Rio Family? You’re from the Rio Family?
The chubby man recognized the name.
Master Angele. I know where the Rio Family’s territory is. I can take you there.
Sure.
Half an hour later…
Angele slowly stepped into the Rio Family’s mansion and saw a lot of Rio Family’s members. The family members were all on their knees. There were many children glancing at Angele curiously.
The couple in the front were wearing luxurious outfits. The man had a mustache and looked like the Baron. The woman was somewhat chubby; she looked a bit scared.
Angele walked to the couple.
Do you recognize me?
The couple was informed that a wizard from the Rio Family returned and that it was a strong wizard. They raised their heads after they heard the question.
Angele… Are you really that Angele?
the man asked carefully; he was the current family leader; his name was Vienna. Vienna did not want to offend a strong wizard. The family was in a tough situation and if they messed up this reunion, this situation would get even worse. The whole country would blame them.
Angele glanced at the family members and scanned all of them using the biochip.
Yeah. I don’t think other people know about me,
he responded in a light tone.
Yeah… It’ just… According to the family history, Angele left the family around 800 years ago and was the most honorable member in our family history… So…
Vienna could not believe that someone could live for over 1000 years.
Angele understood what Vienna was thinking right away. He explained that he had a special bloodline in his body which greatly increased his life expectancy.
He did not care if they believed him or not. He walked around the mansion and asked about the family’s history. Vienna told him that the book he sent back to the family was kept in a storage room as a souvenir.
He asked Vienna to find the book and bring it back to him.
Angele tapped on the book slightly and the cover of the book started shining. A black scorpion mark appeared on the cover and the book opened.
The family members were all surprised after witnessing the scene. They finally believed that he was the real Angele.
They kneeled in front of Angele together.
Master Angele! It’s the real Master Angele!
Our family has hope now! We have hope now!
They cheered and talked in excitement. They surrounded Angele and kneeled again.
Welcome back to the family! Master Angele!
they shouted happily.
Angele glanced at them and shook his head. He was disappointed.
None of the family members had the potential to become a wizard. Their bloodlines were extremely weak. Some of them reached the knight level, but that was it. Without the biochip, Angele would probably be the same. The family’s bloodline had limitations, and the family members could only become knights.
Summon all the elders, family leaders, and vice family leaders for me. I want to hold a family meeting in a week. I want to set up the rules and get everything organized,
Angele ordered.
Yes! Master!
Vienna was excited. He understood what Angele was implying. If the rules of the family were made by a strong wizard that was around 100 years old or older, there was a chance that the family would become great again.
Angele was not concerned about what the family members were thinking. He raised his head and looked at the direction to the Rudin Empire. That was where the Rio Family started.
The news spread quickly. It was something that had never happened to the Andes Alliance. The wizard organizations in the area all heard about the news which surprised everyone.
The news was spread by the signal towers. The wizard organizations decided to send their representatives to greet Angele.
If an apprentice failed to become a formal wizard, he would return to the family—it was common.
The difference was that if Angele Rio did not lie, he would be over 800 years old. That was the reason why the wizard organizations all treated this seriously.
If a wizard could live for over 800 years, he had to be a strong wizard. There was barely any wizard that had such a long life expectancy in the wizard organizations. Some races were famous for their long life expectancy, but it was nearly impossible for any of them to live for over 800 years.
Angele Rio became famous in days after he came back to the Andes Alliance and everyone was talking about him. Some of the historians found the old records and confirmed that the Rio Family did have a man named Angele Rio 800 years ago. It was said that the man studied in the Ramsoda School and became a formal wizard.
After the original Ramsoda School fell, Angele Rio went to the Six Ring High Tower and traveled to the central continent. That was all they knew.
The news also spread to the Ramsoda School, and the wizards in the school also got excited. They checked their records and confirmed that there was a student named Angele Rio.
Based on the general wizard rules, the older a wizard was, the stronger he would be. Angele was over 800 years old, and no one knew how strong he could be.
