Earth's Greatest Magus

Six beautiful women entered the bath wearing minimal - if not nonexistent - outfits.

Three of them swayed their bountiful bodies as they went towards the half-blood Vizla, while the other three came towards Emery with a lascivious smile on their faces.

Seeing these women step into the pool and were about to arrive in his close proximity, Emery calmly waved his hand to cast a spell. Immediately after, all three women were gently pushed away by rolling waves of water.

"No, thank you. I like to bathe alone," Emery firmly said. With what just happened a few weeks ago, Emery would rather not test his limit.

Vizla wasn't offended by Emery's reaction. In fact, he laughed boisterously and flashed a smirk. "Hahaha, suit yourself then. More for me, it is!"

Seeing the three beautiful women who were being swept away by the waves, Vizla quickly pulled them towards himself. Thus resulted in him being attended by all six.

At first, Emery actually decided to stay longer in the bath in order to inquire about his situation with the young man. However, seeing the young man start to do all sorts of indecent stuff to the six women, Emery swiftly discarded his initial idea and decided to cut his bathing time short and leave early.

Emery promptly returned to his room and to pass the time he continue his soul tempering training

A few hours later, the dazzling sunlight starts shining through the horizon. It was also at this moment that he heard a knock on his door.

He got up and walked to the door to open it. The face of the young man he bathed with last night appeared on the other side of the door, It was probably time to go, however, Vizla said.

"I am sorry, the queen seems to be very busy today... She told me to tell you that she will see you tomorrow. As for today, you will come with me."

Even though he was a bit annoyed by the news, Emery did not show it on his face. He looked at Vizla with a nonchalant face and asked about the important thing. "Where are we going?"

"I will show you around the city. Just come with me, I am sure it will be worth your time," added Vizla calmly when he saw the hesitating look on Emery's face.

Emery was silent for a moment, as he contemplated the offer. Eventually, he nodded his head which made the young man smile.

"Great! Let's go!"

The reason Emery accepted even though he could use the time to practice was that he thought that going with Vizla would be better than staying cooped in his room. Learning more about the city would be a good help if he, somehow, decided to escape from this place.

When they were about to leave, Vizla stopped abruptly and said, "Ah, yes. I almost forgot."

The young man threw two objects at him. One was his storage ring, while the other was his privileged class bracelet. 

Receiving the two items, Emery immediately asked about the other two items which were much more precious than these two, but Vizla shrugged his shoulders and said he didn't know anything about it.

"That's all I got. But don't worry, I will go and make some inquiry later."

Emery nodded in response and said his thanks before they went on their way. However, he knows this can't be a simple misplace, someone definitely messing with him.

As the two walked out of the residence, Emery noticed two Half-Moon magus standing right outside the place like a statue. When Vizla walked past them, the two people gave the former a bow before following closely behind.

Emery was led to a small flying vehicle that could only fit two people in it. Vizla was the one who personally operate it. As the vehicle took off to the air, the two magus also flew and followed a few meters behind them.

Along the way, Vizla went on a streak and nonstop talked about how great and magnificent the Ouroboros Clan was. Emery, who did not hold any interest in such things, only half-heartedly heard the man's ramblings, until the latter pointed at a large golden statue of a man that they pass by.

"There! Did you see it? That is our ancestor, the supreme magus Fenlier."

Vizla took him to a place in a certain corner of the city, and to his surprise, it was a shop with a plaque written on it, [Gene Shop].

Seeing the surprised look on Emery's face, the young man smirked. "You know about this, right? Come! Let's get in!"

What Vizla said was somewhat true; the place reminded him of the shop Bob the Frog had, but this one was certainly not the same. Upon entering, Emery was immediately greeted with rows of shelves containing many different kinds of ingredients from low to high tier.

The moment he saw these many ingredients, for a second, Emery could feel his apothecary fetish start to rise up - threatening to be sated. Therefore, he went ahead and started checking on the price while comparing it with the red spirit stones he had inside the storage ring.

Emery was about to go and pick those he wanted and needed when Vizla suddenly said, "If you see anything that you like, just point at it and I will buy it to you."

"..."

Vizla's words immediately poured a bucket of cold water on his fiery passion, causing the excitement he was feeling to dissipate like smoke.

"No, thank you."

Emery would definitely not owe anything to anyone, especially to someone he just met one day and didn't know at all. Never. 

The young man, however, insisted. "This is one of many branches that I own. So don't worry, it's not a big matter."

Emery once again firmly rejected the offer. Vizla was trying to hide it, but Emery knew he was irritated by his rejection. Still, he acted as if he didn't know about it.

Vizla then brought him to a few places in the city that he thought to be interesting for a visitor like him, but Emery was certainly in no mood after what happened back at the shop. The only thing that made Emery don't label the trip as a waste was the single information that he got.

Apparently, the portal gate of the Ouroboros Planet was currently deactivated. Hence, the only way to go out of the planet was by ship.

This certainly made things exponentially much more difficult for Emery if he really wanted to go through with his escape plan. He probably needed to think about saving someone who can operate a ship like Annara, if he wanted to escape.

He took the chance to ask about both Annara and Silva, but Vizla strangely displayed much more interest in Annara.

After a few hours of driving around the city, Vizla took Emery back to the residence.

"I will see you tomorrow then," was the words Vizla said before he left.

With this, Emery just needed to be patient for another day and hopefully would meet the queen tomorrow. However, when the morning came and a knock was heard from the door again, Vizla once again arrived with another piece of bad news.

"I am truly sorry, but the queen is once again unavailable today. Therefore, you will be stuck with me again today."

Annoyed by this, Emery decided to say, "No, I will have to refuse your offer this time. Other than seeing the queen or Silva, I would rather wait back with my White Fang's clan"

Vizla became visibly amused when he heard Emery's words. He chuckled lightly before opening his mouth. "I am telling you that the queen is busy. As for the princess… hahaha, I can't allow you to see her."

Emery raised his eyebrows at the young man's words. "Can't allow? Who are you really?"

A haughty smirk appeared on Vizla's face when he heard Emery question his identity. It was as if he had been waiting for him to do this thing.

"I am Vizla, the princess fiancee and the future ruler of Ouroboros. The Kemoyin Heiress is mine, so unless I said so you will never see her!"
