Six months as passed by, Iode enrolled into the purple tower as an advanced level student to grow his knowledge of magic and also increase his star level.
Iode, together with a few others are seated in a large hall, the hall where the Archmage had a party for him when he first arrived at the purple tower.
At the podium, archmage Averay, Magus Myrtle, Magus Gloria and Magus Bunten were seated.
Magus Myrtle has a long purple hair, she wore round glasses on her face, her expression was aloof, looking almost uninterested in the program taking place.
Magus Gloria is a blonde chubby woman who wore a wide smile on her face. Magus Bunten a man with brown hair, with specks of white on it, his face was devoid of expression, whether he wants to attend the ceremony or not it's unclear, whatever he is thinking is unknown.
Dressed in highly decorative purple gown, with long backward facing blonde hair that reached the nape of the neck, the Archmage smiled at them.
"Good day to you everyone, newly admitted students, the six of you are here to expand your knowledge of magic and have come here to learn..."
"Maythan Knox, Melissa Pearlson, Angus de Venta, Namitha de Primavera, Iode Zenivia, and Julius Crane. The six of you as advanced level mages would not just stay here at the purple tower for learning and research, you would be deployed to different parts of the kingdom to assist where need be ".
"I want you to do your utmost best, grow stronger and be of great service to us...". The Archmage commented.
The six students stood up and bowed slightly. After commentaries of the three chairmen at the stage, the entrance ceremony ended.
"Iode Zenivia, you are the successor of Igor, it nice to finally meet you, I'm Angus de Venta, I'm from the Routledge academy of the Red tower, nice to meet you ". A green haired individual with blue eyes brought his hand forward to shake.
"They said you are strong enough to survive the belly of Luwesuchus, how rad is that ". A blonde chubby man said.
"Oh please pardon my impudence, I'm Julius Crane, I'm from Ince academy of the Yellow tower, nice to meet you two". The man said.
"Hi guys, I'm Melissa Pearlson and she is Namitha de Primavera, we come from Kursa academy of the Green tower ". A brunette haired lady said with a wide innocent smile, beside her is a blonde lady who was shy, she was facing down and fidgeting her hands, not wanting to make any face contact.
"She's shy". Melissa said.
"Likewise guys, it nice to meet you all my esteem colleagues ". Iode said.
"Tsk, you lackluster people groveling before him just because he's the successor of Igor, he's just like any other person. You lots are nothing but hypocrites, we are here to learn and grow stronger to be in service for our people, not here for frivolous interactions ". A black haired individual said as he walked past them.
"What's he's deal ". Julius said.
"...". Iode stared at the man.

At the purple tower, Iode laid on the bed, being an advanced level student of the institution, they were given individual rooms that they would stay for about a year before they will move out and look for their own accomodation.
"I don't know if I should sleep or not...".
The last time Iode slept, he met with Igor in his dream and made a deal, if Iode is to detach himself from Igor's soul bound, he is to tell people of the nations what he was dreaming about.
"You want me to travel across the world and tell them about the unfortunate disaster of the future?" Iode asked.
"Yes, exactly, and in return I'll detach myself from you ". Igor replied.
"Isn't that way too much work for such a small reward in return?" Iode said.
"?"
"What else do you want ". Igor asked.
"I want you to stop this awful dreams, I can't sleep peacefully, it's frustrating!". Iode said.
"Oh, that I have no control over, maybe if you are able to speak with the soul demon or Valier himself ". Igor said.
"What! What good are you to me, this is absurd ". Iode protested.
" Well, I can connect you with him and bargain on your behalf, worry not ". Igor said.
"Hmmm...".
That was the last time Iode saw Igor and after the encounter, he would have such horrid dream once in a week, which was palatable. Iode smiled, closed his eyes and slept...

A tremendous outburst of purple energy beam shoot up to the sky, soon, as if the fabric of reality was like a glass, a portion of the sky cracked and broke into shambles, then from within a monster as dark as shadow crept out.
The monster, though extremely dark, had the build and physique of an Elf, it ears was long and it body was slender, it opened it mouth full of white shark-like teeth and smiled evilly.
"I have returned...". The dark monster said with a maniacal smirk on it face...
