"You're saying I'm strong?, you know from whom?" Ask Rivan.

The priest leader frowned "isn't that obvious? No one knew I was the leader of the priest all this time".

"Not less than 50 years I've sat like a beggar by the roadside and no one recognizes me, not even the priests in the temple" he added.

Rivan nodded, "probably because your face is suitable to be a beggar" Rivan said.

The priest's face flushed red trying to contain his anger.

"You angry?" Ask Rivan.

"Of course not" he answered.

"I wonder why you told me this place?" Ask Rivan.

"The book says that your existence should not be in this place and damage its order" said the leader.

"you mean? Can I go with this altar?" Ask Rivan.

"It seems so" replied the leader.

Rivan turned to five children who had just become his students, even science alone had not been able to share.

The priest leader followed Rivan's line of sight. "Let me take care of him" said the priest.

Rivan looked at the five children who were staring innocently at him.

"Alright, at least teach them well, I know the great potential that exists within them" Rivan said.

"Sure" said the priest.

Rivan walked towards the center of the Altar then he tried to understand the formation that was there.

[Altar not ready] system review.

"What's going on?"

[The altar lacks magic energy, at least the master must reach the PEAK UNIVERSE LEGEND stage to use the altar]

Rivan began to count, currently he is at the peak BIOSPHERE stage means staying past 1 stage again to arrive.

Sighing deeply, he then returned before the leader of the magic priest.

"What's wrong?" Ask

Rivan looked into the leader's eyes "i can't use it yet, at least keep this place a few more years until I'm at my supposed stage" Rivan said.

"Huffft is fine, but now you're at what stage?" Ask the priest.

"BIOSPHERE" Rivan replied without hesitation.

"BI-BIOSPHERE?" the priest said he could not believe it.

"You're a Vali" he continued, staring in surprise at Rivan.

Rivan raised his eyebrows in an incomprehensible manner. "I'm not a Vali" elak Rivan.

"No, you Vali's only Vali can pass through the BIOMA stage" the rich magic priest.

"I know you lack faith, but do you believe me if I say I'm 800 years old?, I know a lot of the history of this world" said the magic priest.

"You're an old monster" Rivan said.

"It's up to you, but I'm absolutely certain that you're a Vali"

"Hm, whatever you do, I'll go"

Rivan started going from there and the five followed suit.

The leader of the priests left behind stared at Rivan's steadfast back with a million meanings. "BIOSPHERE" he murmured.

"Rivan" called Lucas as he watched Rivan who had just walked off the road to the back of the temple.

Rivan raised his eyebrows in response.

Lucas did not answer, looking at the boy behind Rivan.

Rivan, who saw him, turned to look at the boy.

"Acras, is his name right?" Ask Lucas to Rivan.

Rivan gave a small nod, his gaze unmoved at the boy, the boy who was looking at him flat expressionlessly.

"His father is here, he's a nobleman" Lucas said.

Arcas who heard him getting his face flattened, he slightly approached Rivan and held his trousers as if saying he did not want to leave.

Lucas takes Rivan to the place where Arcas' father is waiting.

The room looked simple as an adult man, and a boy was sitting there.

"Thank you Mr. Lucas for helping me" the grown man said as he watched his son come behind Rivan.

"Ah, it doesn't matter Duke" Lucas said politely, although he was a magic priest, but his level was only on par with that of a Baron.

"It's Rivan, he's Arcas' teacher" Lucas said.

The Duke looked at Rivan for a moment.

"Him?" The Duke said in disbelief.

"Yes" replied Lucas.

"He doesn't even have magic energy" the Duke said "how would he teach magic?" The duke asked.

Rivan grinned at the mocking look on the duke's face. His gaze turned to the child who had obtained the lightning element earlier.

"Is he your brother or sister?" Ask Rivan on Arcas.

"Sister" replied Arcas.

"What academy are you at?" Point Rivan at the lightning boy.

"What's up with that?" Voice from behind Rivan.

Rivan turned around to see who was coming.

"Master Academy" Lucas said.

"Ah so you're the boy's master?" Ask Rivan.

"Yes, what's the deal with you?" Said.

"Nothing, just how about a little exchanging attacks with me?" About Rivan.

"Ahahaha with you? I'm not sure you'll last 1 minute hahaha" he sneered.

"I think so too, so how?" Ask Rivan again.

"Haaaahhh no, I'm afraid of hurting you who don't have magic, what about those who exchange attacks?" He said referring to children.

"I don't think that's fair, because I haven't even taught them how to breathe" Rivan said.

"Hmm well your reason is reasonable enough, what if we do it in a few more years? The loser had to kill his own student" he said with a triumphant grin.

"Wahh that bet is really dangerous, but wouldn't this hurt you lord duke? Your child is in both positions if one of the positions wins then you have to lose the other child" Rivan said.

"No problem, it's better to lose him who's useless than to be defiant" the Duke said.

Rivan put on a serious face, "where's the contract, you better make a magic contract"

The proposing master looked a bit closer to the spell before a slightly brownish-colored paper appeared before him.

"Write your requirements" said the master.

Rivan grinned in satisfaction.

• the loser will kill all his students.

•5 People will compete.

•if one of the parties cheats, it will automatically be considered lost.

•8 More years of competition.

•breaking a contract means taking the lives of everyone.

Rivan handed the contact he had written to the master and was greeted with a cynical smile by the master.

"His terms are pretty good and fair, let's just pass the contract" the master started dripping blood from his finger, Rivan also started to do it.

The five children behind him stared at Rivan's strapping back, now his life is an 8-year bet to come.

"Well then have a good time training and meet 8 more years in this place" said Rivan he then turned to face his five students and swung his hand, at once he disappeared in front of the people.

"In-him?" Tubun the master vibrated at the scene just now.

"Vali Nation" murmured Lucas.

"Death to you" he continued to the Master and Duke.

Instantly the proud faces of the two turned sour.
