"Perhaps we can discuss this some more in my home, Astronian."

"What you want is not a simple matter after all." The Wizard King made a smart route for himself at this time. His abode was his strongest fortress.

​​

No place could offer a safer refuge for him than inside his very own sanctum.

"Hmmm... Then let me experience a wizard's hospitality in this world." Our bored gamer answered in the same beast like voice.

He wore not the same civilized attire of the western culture but used the more familiar robes of cultivators.

The same bloody robes covered his form and a smiling demon mask veiled his face also. Other than his hands and long black hair, no other features could be seen at all.

He was of course using his true body at this time.

"Please follow me, Astronian." The Wizard King nodded and then his form melted into nothing in the next moment.

A breath later, Clark also did the same and a hushed silence descended upon those that remained in place.

Anyone of them could see that there was a picture of absolute ruin within 1 kilometer of radius around the camp of the Astronians.

The influence stopped short with only mere meters away from the kneeling wizard audience.

"W – why does the Wizard King treat that lone Astronian with such a high respect?"

"Isn't he only at level 5 wizard strength?" One soul uttered the most important question on the minds of his wizard friends.

He could obviously feel the power that emanated from that masked man and judged him to be only at that particular level and no more.

"A mere level 5 wizard cannot stop the Wizard King's attack."

"That Astronian must hold the greatest power of them all."

"A defensive treasure that can withstand something that is several levels above it."

"Even to go as far as easily defend against the might of the Wizard King." A wise old man said and his words made quite great sense in what they had seen so far.

Everyone looked to the skies where the Wizard King had disappeared and they all had their hopes and fears on how this day could end for the lot of them wizards.

Wizard Continent.

A young man arrived on the steps of a towering construct. This magical building was so high up in the air that it practically speared right through the clouds in the sky.

What was more grand was the color of this giant creation which took the purity of white as its theme.

Just standing near this tower alone and one could feel the obvious mystery and power that this world has to offer.

"TAP!" A second figure appeared right behind this young man after a 3 second wait.

"So this must be the famous White Tower that I've been hearing about earlier."

"It looks good enough for me." Our bored gamer approved of what he saw.

'So this man really knows how to travel through the void already.'

'He must still have many magical tricks up his sleeve.'

'I need to avoid conflict at all cost!' This was the thought of the Wizard King at this time.

One should know that in this world, only level 9 experts could freely traverse using the void as their road.

And yet a level 5 Astronian has easily commanded space like he was already at their level for a long time.

Since the test that the Wizard King laid has been broken apart completely, he could only stand on the same level as our bored gamer.

From this moment onward, the Wizard King saw this unnamed Astronian as a level 9 foe and not one level less.

He had been alive for several million years already and he was not stupid enough to underestimate this enigmatic person before him.

"You should see what's inside, Astronian. I promise you that the view is far more superior than here." The Wizard King smiled and led our good gamer into his very own territory.

On their way, there were of course many low level wizards who stood in awe at the Wizard King's presence.

"Our KING is here!" Someone shouted first and the bodies dropped one after another. Alas, they were left ignored by the very master that they honored.

Two figures went inside the White Tower and a few minutes later, several thousands of students were expelled from the confines of the tower.

Some were still sleeping while others were involved in some questionable acts and misconducts.

"What the fuck is going on in here?!" An angry wizard roared as he was exposed naked alongside a woman who he had been busy riding from a moment before.

"..." Unfortunately, no one bothered to answer him as most of those who knew the reason behind this spell were still busy kneeling and bowing their heads to the greatest idol inside their hearts.

"Not bad. Not bad at all." Our bored gamer praised the wondrous man made creation inside the White Tower. There was a clear waterfall nearby a humble pavilion.

This was a perfect spot for meditation and learning. To be able to replicate these kinds of elements inside a mere wizard tower was truly impressive indeed.

"My place is nothing compared to the deep research that your people have already accomplished, Astronian." The Wizard King replied.

He sat at the table next and pushed his burning staff on the ground beside him.

"DUM!" A dull sound echoed out and refreshments arrived by the grace of a golden colored magic.

"Please." The Wizard King offered and our bored gamer has of course complied in return. There was hot tea, liquor, milk, etc. But Clark has first reached out for the hardest drinks of them all.

He got himself the gourd of wine and poured towards 2 empty cups before him.

"You have led a good life so far, wizard. A toast to your prosperity." Our avid gamer offered a cup first and the two of them feasted together in the privacy of the White Tower.
