Fateful Encounter

Previously, Roland was only famous.

Everybody in the Red Magic Tower knew him as nothing more than "an innovative high-spirited young man."

After all, the oil-making and fire-making spells were both life spells.

But strength was too important in this world. Those life spells could help the Mages make extra money, but such spells could never be the mainstream, because however much money one earned, he might lose it to anyone who was stronger than himself.

The Great Elder personally admitted him into the Red Magic Tower only because he thought highly of Roland's creativity and believed that he would be a qualified assistant to a Master Mage in creative experiments.

None of the leaders of the Red Magic Tower paid any attention to Roland's strength. They didn't even bother to.

That was why they simply decided that Roland would be the monitor before they tried to establish their authority by teaching him a lesson.
