After arriving at the magic guild branch, Zevien parked his bike in the parking lot and took a deep breath before activating the shaman seed’s power. He controlled it and prevented whiskers from appearing on his face. He also suppressed his cat ears so that they don’t pop up on his head. However, his eyes slightly changed as a black pattern appeared on them.

Zevien then looked in his Digi-watch to check his magic power.

Initially, he had 181 magic power exactly, but after using vampire transformation, it increased to 326, and after using the shaman seed’s power, it further increased to 1412.

“Perfect!” Zevien grinned. He needed magic power below 1500 for his plans, yet not too low.

He then took out his Digi-watch and put it in his pocket before taking out another Digi-watch and wearing it on his wrist.

…

After entering the magic guild branch, people looked at Zevien weirdly, but he paid no mind to their gazes and went to the main reception desk before saying to the woman behind the desk, “I want to take part in the Rookie Skyward Peak Contest.”

Hearing his words, the receptionist nodded, “who referred you?”

“Umbra Raven,” Zevien replied as he took out a letter and gave it to her.

‘Miss Raven herself?’ the receptionist was startled as she took the letter and opened it. The seal within confirmed that it was indeed true; it certainly belonged to her.

“We will need to register your name and magic power,” the receptionist said as she put a square tablet on the table, “scan your Digi-watch so we can register you and send you a notification when the contest starts.”

Zevien nodded as he put his wrist on the tablet. The receptionist got information on her computer screen and internally chuckled, ‘Alucard? And a vampire get-up? Haha, people these days.’

[Alucard]

-Magic power: 1412

-Mana: [14,119/14,120]

Zevien chose Alucard as his 2nd identity. He wore this get-up because he wanted to make a name for his 2nd identity for his future plans in the Lankrena region.

As for why he was participating in this contest? Well, the reward for the Skyward Peak Contest was a quota to enter Skyward Academy.

However, this quota was slightly different because the winner could also give it to other people. The winner gets a medallion, and whoever has the medallion can enter the Skyward Academy.

The Skyward Academy only released three such quotas yearly for people who wanted to let someone in their family or close ones get admission. That’s why there were three contests for these three quotas.

Rookie Skyward Peak Contest: people with 1000 to 1500 magic power can participate.

Adept Skyward Peak Contest: people with 2000 to 2500 magic power can participate.

Expert Skyward Peak Contest: people with 5000 to 5500 magic power can participate.

All contests had the same reward; a medallion that can let someone above the age of 16 and below the age of 21 enter the Skyward Academy.

Zevien planned to get this medallion and give it to himself while also making a name for his 2nd identity by participating in this famous contest. It was akin to hitting two birds with one stone.

…

After registering in the contest, Zevien left the magic guild branch and returned to the office.

He had also built a training room on the ground floor, so he went inside and waved his hand as he conjured mana to create a magic formation in the air.

He had already learned the Burning Spark’s spell concept and formation, so he started creating its spell formation in the air. After ten seconds, he made an eccentric magic circle the size of a palm in the air. It was bright orange with light yellow sparks within the patterns inside the magic circle.

Afterward, Zevien created the spell formation of Flash Curtain beside the spell formation of Burning Spark. He then slowly combined those two spell formations as some patterns merged and some fell apart.

He created a new spell formation of the same size a minute later. Most tier-1 spells, either regular or fused ones, have spell formations the size of a palm.

After Zevien removed the spell formation of Flash Curtain from his magic core, he weaved the spell formation of the peak tier-1 fusion spell: Brilliant Burn, into his magic core.

There was a bit of space in his magic core, but it was only enough to weave a single A-rank spell. He couldn’t weave a tier-1 spell in it.

“Done. Now I have to reach 500 magic power fundamentally and evolve my magic core so that I can finally weave more spells,” Zevien muttered as he started calculating.

“I have also reached my limit on staying longer, so each time I enter the magic labyrinth, I will likely gain 40 or 41 magic power. With two magic labyrinths, that’s a minimum of 80 magic power gained every month. If some mishap doesn’t occur while I am inside, I will likely hit the 500 mark after four months.”

“Damn, that’s way faster compared to my previous life. Having two awakened magic labyrinths is a blast,” Zevien grinned at the thought of his speed and left the training room. He went to meet Yowen and see how the company was doing.

But after half an hour, Vernisia took him to a private room in the building.

“What? Why did we come here?” Zevien was surprised.

“I…,” Vernisia had a slight blush as she didn’t say anything but got close to Zevien and wrapped her arms around Zevien’s neck before kissing him. Her juicy lips touched the gentle lips of Zevien.

Zevien also wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her closer as her soft melons pressed against his chest, making him feel even more good while kissing her lips.

Their breathing became heavy after a short while as they separated. Vernisia’s eyes were watery, with her cheeks completely pink.

“You look so adorable right now,” Zevien grinned as he kissed her again, and they went for another round of long kisses.

“Haah~, I just couldn’t forget this sensation and wanted to kiss more, so I took you here,” Vernisia said with heavy breathing, blushed cheeks, and a smile on her face, “I am so happy.”

Zevien was also shaken as he had never felt this good before. His eyes had also turned misty as he said smilingly, “Me too. I can kiss you forever and never get tired.”
