Ascension: Strongest Fateless Mage

"Wait, what did you say about us four going to the Lankrena region in Skyward academy?" Erica asked with doubt, "we only have two quotas in the academy, and even if you go to another academy as an exchange student to snatch their quota, we four still won't be able to go together."

"I have a plan, no worries," Zevien grinned before he went to call the kids and mother Helena.

"What plan does he have? Do you know, Verny?" Erica asked as she looked at Vernisia.

"Nope," Vernisia shook her head, "he didn't tell me anything about this."

"Well, if we use the fairy spirit that we will summon, then we can snatch a spot," Dan said as he rubbed his chin, "Zevien is going to help us summon fairy spirits as he did with city lord Cargil and others. But honestly, I want a fairy spirit close to my level so we can fight and grow together."

"Yeah, Tarto doesn't help Zevien, but he gave him that temporary power boost instead with a five-year contract. For me, I want a permanent contract like Yowen," Erica nodded before turning to Vernisia, "what about you?"

"I also want a similar level fairy, so we can grow and fight together," Vernisia nodded with a smile.

"Meow~ You don't have to worry about that," Tarto said while licking its paws.

Vernisia and the other two were startled to see Tarto suddenly appearing.

"What do you mean?" Vernisia asked.

"I mean, Zevien is an exception. You all won't summon someone like me, who is way more powerful than your current level," Tarto grinned, "I summoned myself by pushing all others because I sensed something mysterious in Zevien. On top of that mysteriousness, I liked his spirit, determination, and ambition.

"I practically broke the law by doing this, and that's why I can't use my powers here and got some restrictions inside for the duration of the contract."

"Oh…," Dan, Erica, and Vernisia were surprised to know this.

"So there are laws?" Erica asked.

"Yep. By the law of the fairy spirit magic labyrinth, you can't form permanent contact with someone with a large strength gap. Both must have a similar stage of evolved magic core or maximum one stage difference to form a permanent contract successfully."

"What are you all talking about?" Zevien also came out of the building with the kids and mother Helena. He also saw Tarto and snorted, "where is the promised magic item?"

"I have it here," Tarto said as a magical dagger appeared and floated in the air, "this dagger is a tier-1 magic item right now, but it can grow alongside you. There are five seals in the dagger. Each time you evolve your magic core, a seal will break."

The dagger flew towards Zevien as he grabbed it and asked, "what's the name of this dagger? Or no name?"

The dagger's handle was black colored with dark blue and golden patterns, while Its blade was fifty centimeters long, pitch black with a silver sheen at the border.

"The name's Regum, Regulus Ed Kronish. Drop some blood to bind it with your magic core."

"Regum," Zevien nodded as he cut his finger with it and poured some drops of his blood on it. After two seconds, the dagger shined briefly before disappearing.

Zevien was surprised, "it's a mystic type dagger that can go inside magic eidos body, nice."

"Alright, you can check that dagger later. For now, let's eat," mother Helena said.

"Hungry!"

The kids were still hungry as they had just started eating the first portion when Lucas and Hilary arrived.

"Alright, the food's coming quickly. Let's start, Vernisia."

Vernisia nodded as she and Zevien started cooking again while Dan and Erica also continued with the ingredients.

…

After the kids finished eating, they went inside with mother Helena because they were sleepy after eating, and it was already around 10 PM.

On the other hand, Zevien and the others cooked for themselves and sat down at the table to eat.

"Aaa~," Zevien opened his mouth as he stretched his hand that held a barbecue stick towards Vernisia's mouth.

Vernisia's blushed slightly, but she still took a bite.

"Aaa~" Dan also did the same as he stretched his hand towards Erica's mouth.

"You want a beating?" Erica gave him an evil eye before taking a big bite from Dan's barbecue stick.

"Your action and words didn't match just now," Vernisia chuckled.

"I just took pity on him seeing those puppy eyes," Erica said aloofly.

"Thank you, your highness," Dan raised both hands and bowed.

"It's our turn now. Come on," Zevien said with a laugh before opening his mouth towards Vernisia.

Vernisia smiled and dipped the barbecue in the sauce before putting it in Zevien's mouth.

"Cough…I will close my eyes so you won't have to see it," Dan said as he closed his eyes and opened his mouth.

Erica suddenly thought of a plan as a mischievous glint flashed across her eyes. She dipped the barbecue in the super spicy sauce and coated it thoroughly before putting it inside Dan's mouth.

Dan happily took a bit and chewed once before…

"Aaaaaaaa…," Dan opened his eyes as he practically breathed fire because of the spiciness.

"Humph, don't overreact and use mana to clean it," Erica snorted before grinning, "anyway, mission accomplished."

"Tsk, I'll get back to you on this," Dan clicked his tongue.

"Once we finish eating, let's summon your fairies," Zevien said.

"Yeah. This garden is fine for it. Also, what's the plan for all of us to get a quota of the Skyward Academy?" Vernisia asked curiously.

"The plan is simple. I will get a quota for myself on my own. I have a way to get it. Dan and Erica can get each by going to the student exchange program, and Vernisia can get one from our academy," Zevien grinned, "don't ask me how I will get one for myself. Just know that I will get it, that's all."

Although curious, they didn't ask Zevien about this.

"Then we will apply for the student exchange program," Dan said as he looked at Erica.

"Yep," Erica nodded before she snickered at Zevien, "Zevien got connections so he can easily let Touma sir approve our application for this program."

"Haha, leave it to me."
