As they stood in line, Esdras couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and wonder. He had never seen anything like this before. The anticipation grew as he waited for his number to be called. It was a very fun atmosphere this time. Esdras woke up on the day of the Rite of Passage feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness. He got dressed and headed to the dining hall for breakfast. Most of the other apprentices are too nervous to eat, but Esdras and his friends, David, Celine, Vivi, and Dylen,…-

Sam's voice trembled with disbelief as he saw Tara standing behind him, holding the dagger that pierced him. His eyes widened in shock, and his mind was filled with confusion and despair. Tara looked at him with a cold and calculating gaze, "Sam. This was the only way." Sam's knees buckled, and he fell to the ground. He was betrayed by his own underlings, and now the girl he loved was the one who stabbed him. It was a double blow that he could not bear. As he struggled to breathe, a sense of betrayal…

At least as they neared the swamplands the number of undead decreased correspondingly which allowed them to take a break. The dead trees started clearing up which gave them better visibility, if Sam's calculations weren't wrong then it would take only an hour to leave this cursed place. They decided to take a break here before getting into the swamp because it could easily lead to them being attacked when they were exhausted. 'This place between the two zones was the best place to rest up. Of course…

The four of them had stunned expressions before Marcus, the tough-looking apprentice pounced at him. Probably trying to tackle him down to make opening for the rest. But before Marcus could even lunge properly he was forced back as he clutched his chest in confusion. He tried lifting his head up but his whole body grew heavy, Marcus tried to breath but couldn't, he couldn't see anything properly the world spinning around him and then he fell down with a thud. "Marcus!!" The rest of them, didn't…

Esdras did not worry about water or food, other than the official resources he had food and waterskins in his storage ring. If things go wrong he still had water magic which can create real water. Since this was still the first day then catching Sam and his buddies wasn't going to work, he should give them time so they can regroup. It would not do for some of them to get away with it. But it felt good. It had been a while since he got his hands in some EXP, thankfully things worked out better than he…

Even if Esdras couldn't feel the might of the Master mage Ashran through the Spy eyes, he was convinced by that display of power. It was something out of the imaginations of most people. A horrific storm, that was the best description of the onslaught of spells that were cast simultaneously to destroy an army entirely. Stranger still was the fact that the city was completely unharmed by the mini earthquake that was happening right outside the gates, this was unscientific. Belkazak finally broke out of…

Esdras nodded, his luck wasn't bad so far and he now had a direction to look into. With a little bit more luck he could have this problem solved much faster than he expected. The next few days passed by quickly and Esdras kept a close eye on the situation in Seorie. It was not his kingdom but it was important to him. After all, he made an important royal connection with the crown prince, it would be terrible if something happened to his friend and one of his backers. More importantly, it was in this…

Esdras was fine with that, it's not good to be too greedy besides he could figure something out until then. As for his breakthrough to the first threshold, it would take months for him to complete that jump even with Tara's 'help'. The amount of negative energy needed was massive and Tara wasn't providing as much negative energy as before. No matter how much he humiliated her it no longer worked, he even started getting a creepy feeling from her lately… If he didn't need her for other things he would…

"But why can't I use the draw four card to make the next person draw six?" Daylen asked in frustration. Esdras had invited four of his friends over for dinner and a game night. When dinner was done, Esdras took out a deck of Uno cards and began to explain the game. He had these cards custom made with great difficulty, if not for his identity as a member of the magic tower and the fact that he gave clear instructions and designs for the cards he wouldn't have seen the cards for a year at least.
