Ascension: Strongest Fateless Mage

Chapter 94 Small Date, Boarding Plane

"When will you return?" Vernisia said with a pout as she wrapped her arms around Zevien's neck.

"I don't know," Zevien wryly shook his head, "but I will know when I go there, and I'll inform you of when I will return."

Both of them were inside the top floor of Zenith Corp., and it was around 4 in the afternoon. The flight would take off after an hour, so Zevien had to reach the airport and board the private jet of the Magic Guild branch after forty minutes.

"We still have some time before you go, right?" Vernisia asked with puppy eyes.

Zevien rubbed his nose against her nose and kissed her before nodding, "yep. Tell me where you want to go, and we will go there."

"Yey, then let's go to the new Crescent Lake Cafe. It's a cafe in the middle of the lake, and we will be eating on a luxurious wooden boat."

"Alright," Zevien smiled and nodded.

…

Both of them went to the Crescent Lake Cafe and were surprised. The entire lake was decorated to its border with red and orange chandeliers. At the center was a big open-air pavilion of the sort where the staff prepared food and drinks.

There were wooden boats everywhere, and after taking their orders, people could drive the beautiful and luxurious boats to another location on the lake.

The lake was extremely clean and filled with colorful fishes as well. But there was not much traffic since it was still daytime. Naturally, the place was also costly.

Zevien parked his bike in the parking lot outside the lake before he and Vernisia moved along the path to enter the lake.

They ordered some things and went away from the pavilion on their boat after getting the food and ate in a peaceful environment while talking about some things.

Zevien told Vernisia about his adventure today in the Inviolable Blood Garden magic labyrinth while eating.

"That princess sounds handful," Vernisia chuckled as she heard about princess Nerissa.

"Yeah, and I initiated a magic quest related to her," Zevien sighed, "she is more powerful than me individually, and even her backing is powerful, so I don't want to have any connection with her and attract trouble for myself."

"Eh, if it's just the initiation of a magic quest, then you still have a chance," Vernisia said as she took a sip from her drink, "you can initiate multiple magic quests, but once you complete the initial part of a quest, the other initiated magic quests disappear."

"Oh? Wait, I remember," Zevien remembered the steps and nodded, "the first step is magic quest initiation, and the second step is magic quest establishment. So we can have multiple initiated magic quests but can only establish one magic quest."

"Yep, I initiated three magic quests yesterday and established one out of them," Vernisia smiled, "I haven't completed it yet since it's going to be a bit difficult."

"Be careful," Zevien spoke somberly, "now that we are entering inside physically, we will die for real if we die inside, unlike other people."

Vernisia nodded wryly, "if we are on the verge of death, we have to think of leaving quickly before it's too late."

"Yep," Zevien nodded before seeing their food dishes empty, "let's go get some more dishes. I am a bit more hungry since I killed some magic beasts, and my body got stronger because of the enhancement," Zevien said as he moved the wooden boat towards the center.

"Nice. How much magic power you got now?"

"260.4 magic power. I'll reach the 500 mark after three months," Zevien beamed a smile, "and I got one more yellow-rank magic crystal."

"Oh, then we should give them to Erica and Dan. Once they reach 385 magic power, they can use a yellow-rank crystal to jump to 500 magic power. So we can all reach 500 magic power simultaneously after three months," Vernisia said as she fisted her palm.

"Yeah," Zevien nodded as he agreed, "anyway, these magic crystals are not that rare. But it will only save our time in a way. The difficulty of evolving our magic core hasn't decreased, especially when it increases the more we evolve."

"Yeah, but we won't have any problem," Vernisia spoke determinedly, "we will persevere together!"

…

After eating, Zevien dropped Vernisia at the orphanage, and he didn't leave without saying bye to the kids since he won't be seeing them for a few days.

He went inside an empty room in the renovated orphanage and took out his vampire outfit —the Dracula version— from his storage ring before wearing it.

He then activated his shaman seed's power and turned it into the vampire form.

"I need to decrease intake from shaman seed a bit," Zevien muttered as he saw that his magic power exceeded 1500 and reached 1509. He pulled out some of the shaman seed's power and decreased it by 50.

Afterward, he went to a window in the room and opened it before flying out towards the airport.

If he went with his bike, those who wanted to know his identity later might find it by checking the owner of that bike. Anyway, it was not strange to see flying people along with flying cars in the sky. Although people who can fly are low in numbers, they are there.

He arrived at the airport in a few minutes and showed the ID he received from the magic guild branch to the person checking everyone's entry before boarding the private jet.

'Many people are already here,' Zevien thought as he entered the almost full plane with only four empty seats.

"Yo, are you going on a fancy outfit show or what? Hahaha," said a man in his early twenties before laughing at Zevien.

Other people also lightly chuckled since Zevien indeed looked like he was going on a fancy outfit with his physical features and clothes.

Zevien turned to the man who spoke and grinned, showing his sharp vampire fangs. He oozed out darkness with a red hue around him that coated his body, and his eyes also glowed red, making him look malevolent as he spoke, "I am going to kick your ass in the contest. Or would you rather want me to do it now?"
