Wizards begin with Occlumency.

The wizarding world was shaken to its core.

From the highest council to ordinary wizarding organizations, anyone who understands the prophecy knows what the alarm bell of the Star Fortress represents.

The prophesied special "strange guest" is undergoing a test to open a passage to a parallel universe behind the special ruins world.

Regardless of who that special "strange guest" is, which wizarding organization they belong to, or how they bypassed the Star Fortress's surveillance to initiate the trial.

This is all great news for the wizarding world.

The unprecedented upheaval prophesied by the saint Nostrodam before his death has arrived.

All wizarding organizations mobilized to intensify preparations for the unprecedented upheaval foretold in millennia.

The main campus of Rivosos Academy.

In a small star system that has been completely corrupted by the will of the wizarding world, there is only a habitable planet the size of the moon.

Forrest Diomand had just met his grandparents, the Great Sage Revor and the Great Sage Soth, when he received news that a special "strange guest" had already undergone the test.

"This news is indeed sudden, but there's no need to be so shocked, is there?"

The Great Sage Soth looked at his grandson and asked softly, "And what brings you to see us in such a hurry?"

Forrest replied with mixed feelings, "I came to say that I have a rough idea of ​​who this special 'strange guest' is?"

"Who?"

The Great Sage Rivo was clearly most concerned about this issue and immediately asked.

It's her.

Forrest dared not delay, and without any apparent action, a detailed introduction of Iris Clark appeared in the air.

"Hmm... so it's her."

After reading it, the Great Sage Rivo sighed, "As expected of the special 'strange guest' in the prophecy, the timing was not right. Even though it was growing right under my nose, I did not notice it in time."

Back then, the Great Sage of Rivo searched for special "strange guests" throughout the entire Rivoss Academy's area of ​​influence, and also reviewed Iris Clark's information.

Like the other wizards involved in the search, he subconsciously ruled out Iris Clarke and did not let her go to the special ruins world to verify it as well.

Looking back, isn't that precisely its most unique feature?

The fact that a dignified eighth-level sage, who has traversed countless realms for nearly 1,900 years, could not see through this small mystery is clear proof of this.

The Great Sage Soth then said, "So, she is the one currently undergoing the test?"

"And perhaps Link Grand."

Forrest briefly recounts the incident where he was suddenly attacked and caught in a spacetime turbulence while teleporting Link and Iris back to the Wizarding World, and provides his reasoning for guessing that Iris Clark is a special "extra".

The portal exploded, and anyone inside it, below the level of a fifth-level sage, faced a near-certain death.

That's how the level 5 demon lurking in the fairy world was tricked to death.

Therefore, the portal is the most heavily guarded place by every wizarding organization and wizarding legion, and it is extremely difficult to destroy.

The witch Celine was so worried when news of the destruction of the portal connecting the Palo Sage Legion's forward base and rear camp by the Abyss Demons reached their homeland.

The Flame and Metal Merchant Guild and the White Tower Alliance bypassed the guards of Rivosos Academy and launched a surprise attack on the rear camp of the Paro Sage Legion. They easily destroyed several teleportation portals with just a half-power beam of Annihilation Light. By bypassing the tight guards, they precisely controlled the range and degree of damage, which demonstrated the strength and prestige of the two long-established top wizarding organizations.

The fact that Link and Iris didn't die on the spot but instead got caught in a time warp is extremely rare throughout the history of the wizarding world.

The protagonist of each similar event has a very special encounter that is strongly connected to time and space.

In the near future, the most significant event strongly related to time and space is the prophecy of the Saint Nostrodam.

Therefore, Dean Forrest concluded that Iris Clark was the special "strange guest" foretold in the prophecy.

"What a pity!"

The Great Sage Rivo sighed, "It's a pity that this was discovered a little too late, otherwise we wouldn't have had to make a deal with that old geezer from Mesopotamia."

Great Sage Soth rolled his eyes: "I advised you not to rush, not to rush, but you wouldn't listen."

"hey-hey……"

The Great Sage Rivo chuckled awkwardly, "I'm just in a hurry to gather resources for your promotion."

"snort!"

The Great Sage Soth rolled his eyes even more. "You say it's for me, but in the end, isn't it all for yourself? You've wanted to beat up that Michel guy for a long time, but you can't do it alone, so you have to drag me along."

Forrest lowered his head, looking down at his nose and his heart, ignoring the warm interaction between his grandparents who had lived for nearly 1,900 years.

The Great Sage Rivo noticed his somewhat embarrassed grandson and chuckled, "Go back and organize the materials. Make sure the chain of evidence regarding Iris Clark, um... and Link Grand is undergoing trials is solid. Form a report, and I'll submit it to the High Council. Let's get this resource in hand first."

After a moment's thought, the Great Sage Rivo continued to give instructions: "As for the cooperation plan with the University of Mesopotamia, continue with it, and prepare for both possibilities."

"Understood, I'll take care of it right away."

Dean Forrest took on the task and disappeared swiftly.

This couple, who had lived together for nearly 1,900 years and had not grown tired of each other, continued their sweet daily life.

The Wizarding World is native to the Wizarding World.

West Coast, Tudor Region, Michel District, Rivosos District.

Advanced Institute, Library.

Jasmine, who was researching information and literature related to beast tamers, suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if she had lost something very important.

I quickly recalled the premonition I had more than a month ago.

Jasmine immediately realized that this sudden impulse was still about Link.

Well……

Through an unexpected discovery in the cultivation realm, Jasmine learned that her suddenly and rapidly improving intuition and precognitive abilities came from the "God-Eating Worm".

As the natural enemy of the gods in the world of gods, the "God-Devouring Worm" has two major characteristics: concealment and foresight.

The function of the concealment feature is to avoid being controlled and searched by deities with divine authority related to fate and prophecy;

The purpose of the predictive ability is to make it easier to predict the whereabouts and status of deities who will become prey for the Zerg, so as to set traps or take targeted measures.

At that time, the "God-Eating Insect" was still in the form of an egg. Although it did not recognize Jasmine as its master and become a companion spirit beast.

However, after a long period of coexistence, the "God-Eating Worm" generously "shared" its newly awakened bloodline characteristics with the Jasmine it inhabited.

If we consider the "God-Eating Worm's" extremely strong will to survive and its ability to do so, we can understand it as a way of not wanting its host to die prematurely and affect its own birth.

After the "God-Devouring Insect" became Jasmine's companion spirit beast, Jasmine fully shared the "God-Devouring Insect's" two major characteristics, as well as other racial abilities that had not yet been awakened.

My sudden impulse just now was due to my precognitive abilities coming into play.

"Where did you go?"

Jasmine closed the old book in her hands and murmured to herself.

Given her current rudimentary intuition and precognitive abilities, the fact that she could generate such a strong feeling means that something extremely serious must have happened to Link.

His destination must be a place that I cannot reach now.

This feeling is extremely frustrating and painful.

Because I have the will but not the ability, I cannot do what I most want to do.

Taking a deep breath, Jasmine suppressed the jumbled thoughts in her mind, but she still couldn't muster the energy to continue reading.

She simply summoned the silkworm "God-Eating Worm," which did nothing but eat and sleep all day, and took out a standard level-two magic stone that had been gnawed halfway through, to feed it once a day.

The food of the "God-Eating Worm" is very simple: high-quality, high-purity energy.

After hatching, the slow absorption of free magic power is no longer enough to satisfy the needs of the "God-Eating Worm" larvae.

You can also use level 1 magic stones, but you'll need a larger quantity and it will take longer.

Jasmine simply switched to standard level 2 magic stones and fed some to the "God-Eating Worm" cubs every day.

At present, the "God-Eating Insect" cubs have a limited appetite; a standard level 2 magic stone can last them three days.

When they get a little older, they'll probably go hungry even if they only get one piece a day.

If she keeps eating the "God-Eating Worm" like this, the rich girl Jasmine will eventually become a penniless wretch like Link.

"Silkworms, grow up quickly!"

Stroking the jewel-like, smooth, and pure white body of the "God-Eating Insect" cub, Jasmine murmured to herself.

Sensing the urgency of its master and "mother," the "God-Eating Insect" sped up its feeding, then returned to Jasmine's sea of ​​consciousness and comfortably lay down in its nest to sleep.

For the "God-Eating Worm", the best way to grow is by eating and sleeping.

Eat well and sleep well, and you will grow naturally.

After the "God-Eating Worm" had settled down and was fast asleep, Jasmine opened the ancient book, read for a while, but found that she still couldn't calm down, so she simply stopped reading.

She rose, walked past the senior level two wizard librarian, and entered a secret room that over 99% of wizards who had studied at advanced academies had never discovered, placing the ancient books back on the shelves.

Then, without haste, he exited the secret room, strolled past the librarian, left the librarian's office, and left the library.

During this time, none of the wizards spotted Jasmine.

Jasmine wandered around the advanced academy like a ghost, unnoticed by anyone.

Those who could discover Jasmine's existence, such as third-level wizard lecturers, naturally assumed that Jasmine's existence was perfectly reasonable.

This is the stealth attribute that the "God-Eating Insect" shared with Jasmine at work.

After repeated testing, Sage Celine concluded that no one below the Sage level, including Level 3 wizards in the process of transformation, could detect Jasmine's deliberate concealment.

Furthermore, this method of concealment is not invisibility, silence, or shielding from reconnaissance and perception in the conventional sense.

Rather, it's a hidden aspect at the rule level.

Once the "God-Eating Worm" grows a bit more and Jasmine's wizard level increases further, even a level four sage might not be able to detect the hidden Jasmine.

With concealment and foresight, their survivability and assassination skills are maximized.

Sage Celine couldn't help but sigh, "Now you can easily kill a level one wizard like Link. With proper preparation, even a level two wizard isn't impossible to kill."

"However, that's not enough!"

On her way to the "Freedom to Do Anything" base, Jasmine thought to herself.

Compared to the Rukia family, and compared to some of the academy's higher-ups, this amount of power is far from sufficient.

Jasmine's heart is now very open.

Moreover, she had an idea to further increase her strength.

This idea is very bold and requires taking risks.

When Link returns, Jasmine will try to persuade him to go with her to realize this idea.

"Link, Link..."

Before entering the "Freedom to Do Anything" base, Jasmine couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"Link, Link, wake up, wake up, don't sleep!"

A shaking and a familiar voice woke Link from his deep sleep.

Link stretched lazily and let out a satisfied groan, "That felt great!"

"Cool?"

A roar like an exploding cannonball suddenly rang out above Link's head.

A burly, beer-bellied man with a thick beard, resembling the rough and unruly Zhang Fei, stood behind Link, his face dark with anger. He roared, "Not paying attention in class, sleeping on your desk, is that fun? Want to have even more fun? Go stand at the back of the classroom and listen to the lesson standing up!"

Link was startled and instantly came to his senses. He quickly withdrew his hand, grabbed his textbook, and sheepishly ran to the back of the classroom, where he stood ramrod straight.

As he stood there, listening to familiar voices and familiar lessons, Link suddenly felt dizzy.

It evokes an absurd feeling that what you are seeing is not the real world, but rather a stream of data composed of 0s and 1s.

Blinking, it was as if the data stream that had appeared in the field of vision had actually disappeared.

The scene before me was still the familiar classroom, the familiar classmates, and the familiar teachers.

Even the countdown to the college entrance exam hanging above the blackboard looked familiar.

What data stream is there?

Am I still half asleep?

Link shook his head and found that he was still quite sober.

What just happened?

His brows furrowed involuntarily as he fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, I remembered the dream I had after accidentally falling asleep in class.

This dream was really long and quite bizarre.

He dreamt that he had traveled to a wizarding world and, through his own tireless efforts without any help, became a powerful wizard.

Defeating opponents of the same level is as easy as eating and drinking.

It can even beat up villains who are powerless and enraged.

Moreover, he was quite lucky with women, having a blonde, blue-eyed loli by his side from the very beginning.

As he was thinking, Link suddenly felt sleepy again, let out a big yawn, and almost fell asleep while standing up straight.

"Link! You bastard!"

The English teacher, with a dark face, bushy beard, and a fierce appearance like Zhang Fei, roared angrily and hurled a piece of chalk at him.

The chalk was about to hit Link's forehead.

Link's eyes widened, causing the chalk to hover less than a hair's breadth from his brow.

"this……"

Startled, my eyes glazed over, and the chalk stub fell to the ground with a thud.

"Stand still!"

The English teacher, Zhang Fei, continued to roar.

That thick, black face with a bushy beard became abstract in Link's eyes.

It looks just like a self-portrait of an elderly Picasso.

It's as bizarre as possible; it's not like a human being at all.

Shaking his head, Link looked at his English teacher again and found that she looked like a different person again.

"That's strange."

Muttering to himself, Link looked down at the piece of chalk lying on the ground, focused all his attention, and silently chanted in his mind, wanting to levitate the chalk.

It's like little wizards yelling "up!" at their brooms.

Link thought he saw the chalk tip move slightly, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.

But before Link could even confirm, a large leather shoe mercilessly crushed the chalk.

The English teacher, who was sometimes human and sometimes not, left a cold "humph" and walked past Link.

One can do something once or twice, but not three times.

Link stopped daydreaming in English class and started listening attentively.

As I listened, I realized that I had learned all of this before, and that it was all very simple.

The short, very simple English lesson ended quickly.

During the break, Link didn't go out for some fresh air. Instead, he sat in his seat, staring blankly at the empty desk next to him.

I heard that a transfer student is coming today, and she's a girl. I wonder what her personality is like, whether she'll be easy to get along with, and whether she'll draw a line between us.

Most importantly, is it pretty or not?

Lost in thought, the ten-minute break between classes passed, and the bell rang for the start of class.

The homeroom teacher, who was also the Chinese language teacher, led a quiet-looking girl into the classroom.

"Classmates, welcome to our new class family."

After the homeroom teacher finished speaking, he was the first to applaud.

A thunderous round of applause immediately erupted in the classroom, welcoming this righteous and beautiful new classmate.

"New student, please introduce yourself."

After the applause subsided, the homeroom teacher continued with the welcoming ceremony.

The quiet and beautiful new classmate smiled sweetly and introduced herself with grace: "Hello everyone, my surname is Ai and my name is Iris. I have a rather quiet personality and like cute little toys. I hope to get along well with everyone and become one of you."

Looking at his new classmate and listening to her self-introduction, Link suddenly remembered a sentence: "I feel like I've seen this girl before."

It just feels a bit off. (End of Chapter)
