Invitation Letter

Days passed one by one.

Leo, who was immersed in brewing potions, received a message from Sally.

Leo temporarily stopped his brewing and headed to his mentor's office.

"Leo, you finally came!"

Inside the office, the happiest person upon seeing Leo was neither Sally nor Tesla, but Ilis, who came flying toward him.

Leo pondered slightly, then took a jar from his Spatial Storage Bag. Inside were some of Ilis's grandfather's remains.

Leo cast the Necromantic Communication Spell.

The phantom of Ilis's grandfather appeared.

Ilis's grandfather's phantom did not answer.

Ilis looked pitifully at Leo.

Leo fell silent, then asked, "Did you want Ilis to become a gladiator?"

The phantom answered, "No. A gladiator is not some especially glorious profession. If possible, I would have wished for Ilis to become the principal wife of a nobleman and live a life
