Chapter 703: Alright; It’s a Pillar That Looks Like a Tower

Mag and the others had just walked out the door when Kaido appeared in their courtyard, and asked, “Where are you going, Mr. Mag?”

“It’s not every day that I get to come to Rodu, so I want to go out and see the city,” Mag replied with a smile. He obviously couldn’t tell Kaido that he was going to the Magus Tower to watch people getting slapped.

“I see. His Highness was very pleased with the breakfast you prepared, and he wanted me to ask you if you’d like to go anywhere. If so, the manor will prepare a horse-drawn carriage for you.” A smile appeared on Kaido’s face as he said, “However, His Highness told me that he really enjoys your cooking, so he’d like you to prepare lunch for him today as well. As such, you’ll have to get back before noon.”

Before Mag had a chance to reply, Krassu pursed his lips, and interjected, “We’ll be very busy at noon, so we won’t be back before then. Go tell Josh that I’m going out with my disciple, and Boss Mag will be responsible for cooking for us. If he wants to eat something, tell him to go eat someone else’s cooking. By the way, tell him that I’m Krassu.”

“Krassu!” Only then did Kaido notice the white-robed magic caster accompanying Mag and Amy. His eyes immediately widened, and he floundered momentarily before hurriedly nodding as he said, “I… I’ll be sure to pass on the message.”

There were very few people in the Roth Empire who hadn’t heard of the legendary magic caster, Krassu. He was the one who had founded the Magus Tower, and had been in charge of it for several decades. Even if the second prince were in his presence, he would have to extend a salute to Krassu as disciples did to their masters.

Who would’ve thought that he would suddenly appear in the second prince’s manor, and that Mag’s daughter would be his disciple?

Krassu was very pleased with Kaido’s overawed reaction, and he waved a hand in a dismissive manner as he commanded, “Go prepare a horse-drawn carriage for us.”

“Yes, right away, Master Krassu.” Kaido was very relieved by the fact that he had been spared, and he immediately hurried away. The second prince had gone out earlier in the morning, but even if he were in the manor, he definitely wouldn’t refuse a request for horse-drawn carriage issued by this legendary magic caster.

Amy walked in a circle around Krassu with a curious expression, and asked, “Master Krassu, do you have a tiger glued to your face?”

“No?”

“Then why is that uncle so scared of you?” Amy was still perplexed.

Krassu gave a hearty laugh, and replied, “Power demands awe and respect. When you become as powerful as I am, even if you don’t have tigers plastered to your face, everyone will still be scared of you.”

“I feel like it’s still easier to glue tigers onto my face,” Amy murmured with a sulky pout.

“Meow~” Ugly Duckling replied.

“I wasn’t talking about you.” Amy pressed Ugly Duckling’s raised head back down again.

Kaidos quickly returned before leading Mag and the others to the front gate, where a large black horse-drawn carriage emblazoned with the crest of the second prince’s manor was awaiting them.

“Please board the carriage, Master Krassu.” Kaido lifted the curtain on the carriage with a fawning smile.

Krassu paid him no heed as he boarded the horse-drawn carriage.

Mag carried Amy onto the carriage before turning to Kaido as he said, “Sorry to trouble you.”

“Not at all! It’s an honor for me to serve Master Krassu,” Kaido replied with a beaming smile. He had thought that Mag was trying to ride on the second prince’s coattails, but who would’ve thought that he would have such a powerful backer already?

Kaido had a brief word with the coach driver before the horse-drawn carriage slowly departed from the manor.

Mag flipped open the small curtain on the side of the carriage and looked outside, only to find that they were on a street that was so wide 16 carriages could travel along it side by side. In modern times, this would be a 16-lane road. The entire street was paved with even and smooth dark green stone slabs, extending from the walls of the second prince’s manor. There were lavish houses on either side of this road as well.

…This residential area was solely inhabited by high-ranking officials of the Roth Empire. No matter how rich a merchant was, they had no right to live here.

The high walls of the royal palace could be seen not far away, and the grand buildings beyond the walls were shimmering with golden light under the morning sun, making it difficult for onlookers to stare directly at it without shielding their eyes.

To the north of the royal palace, there was a greyish-black nine-story tower. The enormous tower stretched all the way up into the clouds, with each level measuring around 20 to 30 meters in height, and it appeared as if it were a silent guardian overseeing the royal palace.

Many snippets of memories suddenly appeared from deep within Mag’s memory. These were memories surrounding this grand city, the enormous Magus Tower, and the intense melee that had taken place during that rainy night three years ago. All of those details had become extremely clear to him, and he was able to recall every single face as well as their corresponding names.

The Magus Tower had contributed significantly to that ambush over three years ago, but they certainly weren’t idiots; they knew what catastrophic consequences would await them if the ambush were to end in failure and their involvement in it were revealed to the world. As such, among the higher-ups in the Magus Tower, only Elder Elliot participated directly in the ambush, but he had been wearing a mask the entire time, and refrained from unleashing even a single attack.

When they met the day before, Josh appeared to be an amicable and benevolent prince. If Mag hadn’t been aware of all of the dirty deeds the other party had committed in the past, he would have developed quite a positive impression of the second prince. Throughout the years, Josh had truly created quite an impressive facade for himself.

Today, Mag was going to visit the Magus Tower, and if he could avoid having his cover blown there, then he wouldn’t have to worry about his identity being exposed in the near future. In that case, he would be able to continue to focus on his cooking, as well as getting stronger.

Amy had also caught sight of the Magus Tower, and an expectant look appeared on her face as she exclaimed, “What a tall pillar! Father, can we go play there?”

Krassu’s expression darkened, and a slightly awkward look appeared in his eyes as he corrected, “That’s our destination for today. However, that’s not a pillar; it’s a tower, the Magus Tower, to be exact. I oversaw its entire construction process many years ago. It’s quite a grand building, isn’t it?”

An enlightened look appeared on Amy’s face as she nodded, and said, “Oh, so Master was the one who designed it. I was wondering what kind of normal person would put such a huge pillar there, but it all makes sense now.”

“It’s not a pillar; it’s a tower…” Krassu had been beset by a wave of rather complex emotions. Many years ago, it had been one of his most prized creations, and he had once thought himself to be an architect born into a magic caster’s body.

“Alright, it’s a pillar that looks like a tower.” Amy nodded.

“Sure, whatever you say.” Krassu had been completely and utterly defeated. There was no way that he would be able to correct Amy in such matters.

The horse-drawn carriage continued onward for about half an hour before stopping in the plaza outside the Magus Tower, upon which everyone disembarked from the carriage.

Up close, the grand nature of the Magus Tower was made even more apparent. The enormous tower made with massive black stone blocks extended all the way into the sky, striking onlookers with a sense of perspective and reminding them just how insignificant they were.

There were magic casters wearing robes emblazoned with the Magus Tower’s crest entering and exiting the huge gates, which were over 10 meters tall, and it was impossible to find anywhere else with such a large gathering of magic casters.

“Master Krassu!”

Right at this moment, a young magic caster passed by Mag and the others before his footsteps suddenly faltered, and he turned to look at Krassu with a stunned expression.
