"While I'm away, Vice Dean Charlotte oversees all affairs of the academy. I'll be back soon." Leo held a hastily Godslaying Staff, wore a semi-illusory black wizard's robe, four medals lined up on his chest, Little Black Yaoyao perched on his shoulder, and a Level 3 Benji puppet beside him.
"Sir, why don't we go with you?"
Hansiba, the vice-principal of the Body Refinement Wizard Academy, and a group of wizards from their academy looked at Leo as if he were a glimmer of hope.
They were even willing to abandon the tasks assigned by the academy and secretly go on an expedition with Leo, just to experience the aura of a top wizard.
"I have no right to interfere with you. If you insist on going, please contact your dean, but I think your dean will definitely not agree, nor will the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard."
Leo refused the requests from these Body Refinement Wizard -Body Refinement Wizard outright. He couldn't possibly take them away.
They were his important trump cards left in the academy. If these Body Refinement Wizard all left, who could restrain Charlotte, who might cause problems?
When Leo mentioned their dean and the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard, the group of Body Refinement Wizard immediately fell silent.
If those two found out they were going to run off to join an expedition, they'd beat them to a pulp.
Fortunately, Tao Mia is about to advance to the Level Two Elemental Body Refinement Wizard and return to the Undying Body Academy. If she were here, she would definitely pester me relentlessly to go with her.
Leo stepped directly into the portal, and as the portal closed, Leo disappeared.
When they emerged from the other side of the portal, they arrived directly on the third deck of a starship.
A group of wizards of varying ranks were already standing on the deck, surrounding a young Level One Lesser Wizard.
Leo immediately recognized the young wizard surrounded by many wizards; he was none other than Mahad, the only son of the Falling Stars Stigmata Great Wizard!
His short, golden hair danced in the wind, and his wizard robe, embroidered with mysterious star patterns, shone with an energy glow. Even among so many wizards, the intensity of the energy fluctuations emanating from him was among the highest.
"Greetings, Master Leo. I am Mahad. It is truly an honor to have invited Master Leo here today."
The moment Mahad saw Leo emerge from the spatial portal, he immediately stepped forward and bowed, showing no arrogance despite his status.
"No need for formalities, I'm just earning a commission."
Leo carefully examined this young master of noble status. The only son of Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard, he was the most distinguished person Leo had ever encountered.
Although wizards don't value abstract things like status and position, it's a different story when someone's father is Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard.
Carefully sensing his aura, it was indeed around a hundred years after his advancement. This was his first time participating in a mandatory expedition, but his aura was deep and restrained, much stronger than that of an ordinary First-Level Wizard, almost the same as Leo's after his advancement, or even slightly stronger.
In other words, Mahad himself possesses the ability to obtain Third-Class Wizard Medal.
Perhaps because the Falling Stars Stigmata Great Wizard was worried about his son's safety, Leo sensed the aura of no less than ten magical artifacts on him. And these were only those that emitted auras; who knows how many more were not.
Everything on him was a priceless magical artifact: a staff, a wizard's robe, a brooch, earrings, bracelets, shoes... He wore eight wizard rings on both hands, and no one could imagine how many things were inside them.
His entire being practically screams "wealthy and powerful."
Compared to him, Leo only had a wizard's robe and a staff that were somewhat noteworthy. Fortunately, Leo was past the point where he needed to use magical artifacts to increase his attack power.
It wouldn't be easy for a Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard to arm his only son. Leo suspected that even if he wanted to kill Mahad in front of him, it wouldn't be so easy.
"Master, these are all wizards arranged for me by my father. Please don't take offense." Mahad apologized to Leo, pointing to the large group of wizards beside him.
Generally, hiring a few bodyguards is sufficient, or you can hire a fixed team; neither is a problem.
But for someone like Mahad, who asked for over a thousand dollars in one go, no one would have taken the deal if he didn't have a powerful father.
After all, none of the wizards standing here would believe they lack the ability to protect a First-Level Wizard. The fact that so many people have been brought here clearly indicates a lack of trust.
Since they don't trust them, why would these arrogant wizards accept this deal?
Unfortunately, Mahad's father was too powerful; he managed to gather these arrogant wizards together to protect his son.
As a result, Mahad had to apologize to Leo, fearing that his father's actions would displease the Great Wizard before him.
He wouldn't care if other wizards had ideas, but Leo was different; he had to be fully prepared.
This was one of the few wizards his father had specifically mentioned to him before he set off, telling him to make good friends with him.
Leo nodded in understanding. He wasn't going to make a single penny this time. On the surface, it was to repay the kindness of the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard, but in reality, he chose to accept this deal in order to drag the Undying Body into the mess.
Mahad quite powerful, possessing a full set of magical artifacts, and was protected by more than a thousand extremely powerful wizards. This was just a formality, and Leo didn't have too many thoughts about it.
So Mahad imagined that Leo might have some unpleasant feelings, but in reality, Leo didn't at all.
"Greetings, Master Leo."
When Mahad introduced the wizards who were working as bodyguards with Leo, they naturally noticed Leo as well. No matter how shocked they were, they still bowed respectfully upon seeing the four medals Leo wore on his chest.
Some wizards already knew about the involvement of the Great Wizard Leo in this transaction, but most were unaware, so they were completely stunned when they saw the medal on Leo's chest.
Third-Class Wizard Medal, First-Class Wizard Medal, and even... Special-Class Wizard Medal!!
Although some of them also possessed wizarding medals, compared to Leo, they were truly like fireflies compared to the bright moon.
Where did this Legendary Great Wizard come from?!
With such powerful wizards existing, what's the point of having them? Do they have money to burn?
Leo glanced at the wizards. Just as the Undying Body had told him, each wizard was carefully selected and possessed considerable strength. There were over a thousand First-Level Wizard, hundreds of level two wizards, and Level Three Great Wizard who looked like they had been promoted for over a thousand years.
Leo nodded slightly to the other Level Three Great Wizard, then walked towards the room without saying a word. Legendary Great Wizard must maintain the airs of Legendary Great Wizard; his status doesn't require approachability, aloofness is the most appropriate.
Unexpectedly, Yaoyao suddenly grabbed Leo 'Leo ear and pointed to a wizard in the crowd.
Leo stopped in his tracks, puzzled. He looked in the direction Yaoyao had pointed and saw a Level One Lesser Wizard looking at him with adoration in the crowd.
Instantly, all the wizards followed Leo's gaze with curiosity, for every move of such a Legendary Wizard was bound to have profound meaning.
As a result, they saw that Great Wizard Leo's gaze had landed on a peak First-Level Wizard.
That First-Level Wizard was extremely powerful. Even with over a thousand powerful First-Level Wizard gathered on the deck, his strength was still among the top.
However, no matter how powerful he is, he is still only Level One Lesser Wizard. Not to mention compared with Level Three Legendary Great Wizard like Leo, he is far behind even the Level Two Wizard next to him.
"What's your name?" Leo asked the Level One Lesser Wizard with a blank expression.
" Troy, Master."
Troy stared blankly at the Great Wizard not far away, who was looking directly at him. He quickly reviewed his short life several times but found no connection with this Legendary Great Wizard. He simply didn't believe that this Legendary Great Wizard a real person.
But looking at the Great Wizard's expression, it seemed he wasn't very happy to see him, especially since the Great Wizard's soul companion seemed to have an urge to beat him up.
" Troy..."
Leo repeated the name, his gaze momentarily blank, as if he were recalling something.
"Is there something you need, Master?"
Mahad noticed Leo's change and tentatively asked...
"It's alright, I'll go in first."
Leo shook his head and walked towards the room on the second floor of the starship.
He left behind over a thousand bewildered faces on the deck. As expected of Legendary Great Wizard, his actions and demeanor were completely different from the norm.
Troy secretly wiped the sweat from his brow. He had just thought he had offended this Legendary Great Wizard, but all he did was ask him his name and then leave.
"Do you know the Great Wizard Leo?"
Troy's heart hadn't yet recovered from the sudden event when he heard Mahad's voice.
Don't be fooled by Mahad's respectful demeanor towards Leo, as if he were just an ordinary First-Level Wizard, showing no trace of the dignity of being the only descendant of Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard. Among his peers, Mahad naturally exudes pride.
When questioned by Mahad's employer, Troy shook his head vigorously, "I don't know Master Leo, and this is our first meeting."
"Then it's alright. I thought you had some connection with Master Leo." Mahad looked towards the deck entrance; this Legendary Great Wizard indeed possessed an extraordinary air about him.
According to his father, even his father couldn't persuade this person to come; it was only through the friendship of the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard that they were able to invite him.
A wizard who could refuse his father and even earn his father's admiration is truly a legendary figure who can defeat a level four wizard at the level three.
Inside the randomly chosen room, Yaoyao, still clenching her little fists, asked Leo with great resentment, "Why didn't you beat him up?"
"It's all in the past, there's no point in hitting him now." Leo told Benji to lie in wait at the door while he went to the crystal ball in the center of the room to check information about the expedition.
"You're right, what good would it do to hit her?" Hearing Leo's words, Yaoyao loosened her little fist and disappeared listlessly.
The moment Yaoyao disappeared, Leo's outstretched finger paused for a second.
He didn't actually know this Troy. Troy met Alice in the first round of the qualifying matches after the elimination rounds of the final First-Level Wizard Tournament.
We lost!
Leo had specifically looked up this name through Charlotte, originally intending to find an opportunity to avenge Alice and beat Troy up.
Unexpectedly...
Troy never imagined that he would be remembered by this Level Three Legendary Great Wizard, simply because he had eliminated a lady during a qualifying round!
He unknowingly walked a long way off the edge of being beaten!
