However, these old eccentrics could not really care less for the position of Vice Chief Grand Magus, as such, it was a position that only the Green-Robed and a few of the weaker Red-robed Grand Mages coveted.

Besides, the Blue-robed Grand Mages already knew the potential Joanna possessed, so they raised no objections to Gavin\'s decision of appointing her as his Vice.

So, despite having the second-highest level of Authority in Kasteblum, the half-dark elf did not possess the second-highest level of strength.

\'Not yet, at least.\'

Evan, who had played \'Aidos Online\' to the end multiple times, knew exactly how strong Joanna could get from his memories of the game.

During the war against the demons, the Dark Lightning Mystic terrorized the demons so much that it took Demon Generals to personally intervene in order to take her off the front lines.

In a battle against three Lesser Demon Generals, Joanna was finally defeated, but due to the intervention of Gavin, they were unable to kill her as they had initially planned.

That was also how Gavin gained some of the scars on his face that Evan had known him to possess.

Evan was having such thoughts as he looked at the woman who slowly finished her meal before yawning lightly.

"Now that you\'re done with your meal, can you set up a projection with old man Gavin, I have a few things I want to ask him."

"…Is it really…necessary?"

"Hmm? It kinda is."

As Evan replied to her, he studied her expression and couldn\'t help but notice that she seemed a bit…reluctant.

\'Does she perhaps not want to see Gavin now?\'

Before he could even ask her this, the woman had already grabbed her subspace bag and pulled out a magic projector from inside, taking it into the room and setting it atop one of the tables inside.

While Evan called the servants to take out their now empty plates from the balcony table, Joanna had already set up the devices and initiated the call, which was surprisingly declined from Gavin\'s end.

But the woman only kept on pushing the button to re-initiate the connection over and over again until Gavin finally got fed up and accepted.

[WHAT?!]

The Chief Grand Magus\' voice drew Evan\'s attention and he tossed the Guild Card in his hand back to his inventory before moving over to beside Joanna.

And then as if they had agreed on it beforehand, the two of them rose their hands in light waves while echoing three words.

""Sup, Old man.""

[Of course, you\'re there with her too.]

Gavin who looked a lot more haggard than Evan remembered, facepalmed and let out a deep sigh, one which Joanna chose to comment on.

"Don\'t sigh too much. It\'s bad for…health."

[And who do you think is the reason for my sighs?

I\'ll have you know that you just so happen to resemble the Half-Dark Elf mage who slept off on three weeks of work, before coming to my office with a resignation letter; and at this crucial time when we are running final checks to begin mass-producing the Waypoints.]

Gavin\'s reply had Joanna silently averting her gaze as she spoke.

"Weird…I suddenly feel sleepier…than usual. Probably why…I can\'t hear…a certain old man\'s voice."

The Chief Grand Magus\' brows couldn\'t help but twitch repeatedly in annoyance upon hearing his Disciple\'s words.

"I don\'t know how much three weeks\' worth of work is, but it seems to be quite a lot if it\'s got you looking haggard."

Evan spoke up, prompting Gavin to create a mirror using glass magic and check out his appearance, noticing his unkempt hair and eyebags but only sighing lightly before asking.

[Still…what is it that you want to say? You guys picked a horrible time to contact me.]

"Well…I did not expect you to be so busy. What I have to say is probably not as important as whatever you\'re handling now so we can discuss it later."

Just when Evan was about to bid the man farewell and cut the connection, another voice rang out from Gavin\'s end, one that Evan found slightly familiar from the game.

[Hmm? So that\'s the Disciple of yours you foisted your former position on.]

[Yeah. That\'s her, teacher.]

Hearing Gavin address the other speaker by the title of \'Teacher\' allowed Evan to instantly Figure out who the person was.

Although stated previously that Gavin was an Epic Level existence, he was not just any random Epic level like Eliza\'s uncle George, but someone at the very peak of the existence level, with a main level of 697.

There was only one person in all of Aidos, that this near Legendary Level existence would address in such a manner.

The person\'s face came into view and Evan could see her appearance through the projection, confirming her identity to him.

It was a tall human-looking woman with long braided black-brown hair and brown coloured eyes. She had a very large, pointy hat on her head, a long dark-blue coat over a white blouse and a simple blue skirt.

She was holding a pair of glasses in her hands, presumably having just removed them from her eyes mere moments ago.

"The \'Azure Witch\'…"

Having picked up on Evan\'s absentminded mutter, the woman then turned her attention from Joanna to him, titling her head lightly in confusion as she didn\'t appear to know who he was.

[You seem to be aware of who I am, though the opposite is not the case.]

"…I think it\'d be stranger if I was not aware of one of Aidos\' few hundred \'Sovereigns\'."

Evan replied to the woman\'s words with a wry smile as he recalled her name and title in his head.

In the same way Gavin was Joanna\'s \'Teacher\', she was the one who held the position of being Gavin\'s teacher, the former Chief Grand Magus of Kasteblum, and one of the Sovereign Level existences of Aidos, Felyela al\'Rear.

She had passed on her title of Chief Grand Magus over a century ago when she became a Sovereign Level existence and retreated behind the scenes, not having taken any major actions since then.

Even so, to the people of Aidos, her power was undisputed, and she was one of the reasons for Kasteblum\'s status as a Major world power.

"I see, you were busy with your Teacher. Seems like we picked a bad time, huh?"

Just when Evan said that in reply, he heard Gavin heave a sigh of exasperation, tracing his gaze to the half-dark elf beside him who had already rested her head on the table and dozed off.

The young hero looked at her in silence for a moment before bursting out in laughter right after, along with Felyela who also found Joanna\'s actions slightly funny.

[It seems the rumours about your Disciple hold some truth, huh?]

(Her attitude outside of work is very questionable, but when you eventually force her to start working, she is somehow able to get the job done with no issues.)

Another voice rang out from the other end of the projection, moments before another robed mage came into view, with Evan recognizing him as one of the Blue-Robed Grand Mages of Kasteblum.

The man noticed Evan who was beside Joanna, recognition flashing through his eyes as he asked.

(Aren\'t you the boy who killed that bastard Necromancer Dominik?)

[Huh? That\'s him?]

"Yes…that\'s me."

Evan casually interjected and answered Felyela\'s question, pausing for a moment before he continued speaking.

"Sure, he was a necromancer and all, but his class was something called \'Deathlord\'. A higher ranked variant."

[Deathlord? But wasn\'t he only a mere grandmaster?

I mean, your Empire didn\'t mobilize its Epic Level existences because he was only a grandmaster. How did he have a class type meant for Epic levels and above?]

"Because he was an Epic level Existence, but after his death at the Beast King 25 years ago…"

[He lost his levels, huh.]

Felyela completed the statement, nodding to herself in understanding why a grandmaster level possessed a \'Lord\' type class.

"But while two of his Aspects of Existence may have fallen, his soul was still that of an Epic Level Existence and you can pretty much guess the rest."

After speaking, Evan took a glance at Joanna but the woman did not seem to show any signs of waking up anytime soon.

"Well, since Miss Joanna here is already asleep and you guys seem busy, I\'d contact you later.

It\'s regarding the Teleportation Waypoints.

Anyway, See you later."

[Yeah, yeah. Pick better timing next time.]

Gavin said that in reply to Evan\'s farewell before cutting off the connection and returning to his work.

As for Evan, the young hero had now realised the reason why the Teleport Waypoints were being completed years beforehand.

"The \'Azure Witch\' took action. She didn\'t do so in the game, but since she did now, things sped up by a whole three years."

He browsed his memories of the game for any bit of information on where Felyela was supposed to be at this time but came up with nothing.

It was then that a small blue-haired humanoid girl with light blue skin appeared beside him before floating over to his shoulder and sitting there.
