But at the moment, only the other party could take him to the imperial capital as soon as possible.

For this, he indifferently took out five gold coins and finished his sentence.

“I’m sorry, the price has increased. Now it’s ten gold coins.” After Caruso took out the money, Koth glanced at the five gold coins scattered on the table. Then, his five fingers lightly tapped on the wooden bar counter and answered abruptly.

In Koth’s eyes, Caruso was just an ordinary youth.

He had never thought that the other party would be a mage.

It was very simple. If a mage wanted to go to the Imperial City, not only did they not need to spend money but the caravan would also spend money to travel with the other party.

After all, the caravan would encounter many dangers along the way.

If there was a mage in the caravan, it would increase the safety of the caravan.

As for the people who gave them money, almost all of them were civilians or the owners of some shops. They were prepared to go to the Imperial City to buy some goods to sell.

Caruso did not know the situation inside. Deluca did not know that the strength of Caruso had far surpassed the level of an apprentice mage.

In his eyes, Caruso was probably a four or five-star apprentice mage.

Therefore, under such circumstances, the caravans would usually collect money, but some small caravans would not collect money.

Deluca did not dare to guarantee, so he could only say the worst.

In fact, with Caruso’s current strength, even if he encountered a low-level third-tier magic beast, he could still stand with it.

Below the level of a grand mage, Caruso was not afraid of anyone.

Once Caruso broke through to the level of a mage, even if a grand mage came, he would still have to stand and take a beating.

After awakening the source of mana, the torrent of magic would be enough to drown anyone!

It was simply like a human-shaped moving magic cannon!

No matter how powerful you are, as long as I throw my magic crazily, let’s see who will have the last laugh.

Therefore, under this level of strength, if Koth knew, not only would Caruso give him five gold coins but he would also want to give the other party ten gold coins. With such a powerful mage here, the journey would definitely be extremely safe.

“Sir Caruso?”

At this moment, an unfamiliar voice sounded behind Caruso.

After hearing this voice, Koth and Caruso both turned their heads to look.

With one look, he found an input.

The familiar person was none other than one of the two instructors for today’s assessment.

When the instructor saw Caruso’s back at the bar, he did not react immediately. However, the more he looked, the more he felt that he was too similar to the genius who shocked the entire crowd today. Therefore, he cautiously greeted him.

When he saw Caruso turn around, he became excited and quickly walked over, extremely attentive.

“Sir Caruso, I didn’t expect it to really be you.” As a genius who shocked everyone and even attracted the principal, a mere instructor naturally had to curry favor with him. Therefore, he addressed him as ‘you’ instead of ‘you.’1

“Sir, this… this is…” Koth, who was originally prepared to make things difficult for Caruso… when he saw a mage dressed in a high-grade magic robe fawning over Caruso so attentively, Koth was instantly dumbfounded. After being dumbfounded, he asked in a trembling voice.

At this moment, he even wanted to die.

“Sir Caruso is the once-in-a-century genius student of my Holy Orchid Academy. May I know who you are?” When the assessment tutor heard what Koth said, he looked at the other party with his nose up and slowly began to introduce him.

In this world where the hierarchy was strict.

The arrogance of a mage was simply described as extreme.

If Koth had been a mage, perhaps the attitude of the tutor would be better.

However, towards this kind of merchant, the instructor chuckled.

“Honorable… Honorable Sir Caruso… I… I… Tomorrow morning. Tomorrow morning, I will wait for you at the city gate and reserve a single carriage for you.”

After hearing the instructor’s words, Koth sucked in a breath of cold air. His feet trembled slightly and he felt as if he was going to fall down in the next second.

After forcefully suppressing the fear in his heart, he stammered out these words and was hurriedly scared away.

What a joke, a once-in-a-century genius student of Holy Orchid Academy?

Who was that person?

In the next few years at most, once he graduated, he would become a lord-level noble.

If the other party hated him, in a few years—in the next second—he would be able to make him unable to continue living.

In fact, he might not even see the sun tomorrow.

In the Yass Empire—no, it should be said that on this continent.

But there was a clear law.

Offending a noble mage was punishable by death.

No matter who was right or wrong, as long as they offended, they would be punished.

As for if it was a mage’s own problem, then naturally there would be people from the Mage Guild to deal with it, not the local people.

And this was one of the many privileges of a mage.

After Koth left, Caruso also bowed slightly to the tutor to thank him.

He knew that the other party had obviously noticed that the situation was a little tricky after seeing him, so he immediately helped him solve this difficult problem.

Regarding this matter, of course, Caruso had to thank him.

After thanking him, the two of them chatted for a while. Caruso also inquired about some matters regarding the Imperial Academy.

Through asking, he also learned a little about Imperial Academy.
