Tale of a Hedonistic wizard

Jeanine, startled, spurted out, "He isn\'t in the academy, Lady Angelina took him."

Angus raised an eyebrow and asked, "Who?"

Jeanine replied, "Lady Angelina."

Angus frowned and questioned, "Why?"

Ashfield explained the situation, informing him that Angelina was going to teach Jaegar, and he also mentioned the arrangement made by the empress.

However, he discreetly omitted the matter regarding the curse, as instructed by the empress.

He mentioned the empress so that he wouldn\'t retort.

Angus frowned again, pondering the information.

"Okay, I will take my leave," he finally said.

He turned and stopped near Isadora, taking her hand and kissing her palm. "Your beauty has aged like wine, Isadora," he complimented her. She blushed, and he turned again, leaving the room.

Ashfield and Jeanine let out a sigh of relief, feeling as if a weight had been lifted off their chests. The matter regarding the curse was known only to Jeanine and Ashfield, and they decided to keep it discreet, as per the empress\'s instructions.

And all of it happened in a couple seconds, he came, talked, and left. Making them anxious for a while.

After Jaegar went with her, Professor Jeanine announced that he had to go away for a family emergency.

Pierre and Jennifer were confused as to why he had gone without saying anything to them. They wondered if there was something urgent that had come up, causing Jaegar to leave abruptly. As they pondered the situation, Pierre and Jennifer couldn\'t help but feel a sense of unease about what might have happened to Jaegar\'s family.

Everyone wondered what happened to Jaegar in the academy, as he suddenly disappeared right after he gained fame. Rumors began to circulate among their friends and acquaintances, speculating about the possible reasons behind Jaegar\'s sudden departure.

Right after entering the portal, the environment changed drastically, and the place he entered was not what he was expecting.

Jaegar\'s heart pounded loudly in his chest as he stood in the eerie and desolate realm that greeted them after passing through the portal.

Dark, thick clouds hung ominously overhead, obscuring any source of light and casting a haunting gloom over the entire landscape.

Everything around him seemed lifeless and barren as if all vitality had been drained from the once thriving environment.

The horizon seemed to stretch endlessly.

The ground beneath his feet was littered with bones, creating an unsettling sight that sent a shiver down his spine. The bones were piled up like mountains, stretching as far as the eye could see, giving the impression of an endless graveyard.

Each bone was a reminder of something or someone that had met an untimely end, and the air was charged with an aura of death and decay.

The atmosphere felt suffocating, the air heavy with an overwhelming sense of blood lust and malevolence.

Jaegar struggled to catch his breath as the pressure weighed down on him, making his chest tighten with unease. He felt like an intruder in this realm of darkness, a place that seemed to have been forgotten by time itself.

Angelina, seemingly unaffected by the foreboding environment, raised her hand and created a shimmering barrier around them.

The barrier provided some relief from the oppressive atmosphere, allowing Jaegar to breathe a little easier. But even with the barrier, the thick, oppressive air still clung to him.

Jaegar glanced around, trying to make sense of this grim place.

He couldn\'t help but wonder why Angelina had brought him here. Was this some sort of test or training ground? He felt a mixture of fear and curiosity, unsure of what she was doing.

Though Jaegar still silently thanked her for the small respite as he glanced around, taking in the macabre scenery. "You have been slacking for the past decade, do you know that," Angelina said, breaking the silence.

Jaegar\'s frustration rose to the surface, and he couldn\'t help but retort, "And whose fault is that?"

Angelina furrowed her brows, a hint of understanding in her eyes. "I know it must have been difficult for you, Jaegar. Discovering this world and your abilities so suddenly must have been overwhelming. But you have a unique power within you, and it\'s important that you embrace it fully."

Jaegar nodded, realizing that he needed to let go of his past frustrations and focus on the present.

"Jaegar, do you know what this place is?" Angelina asked, her voice tinged with an air of seriousness. Jaegar shook his head, curiosity mixed with trepidation swirling in his eyes.

"It\'s the Abyss," she explained, her words heavy with weight. "The place where damned creatures reside—demons, devils, and all sorts of vile beings. You may even encounter humans here." Her revelation sent shivers down his spine, and he couldn\'t believe what he was hearing.

"W-what do you mean? Me? Encountering them? Are you saying we have to stay here?" Jaegar\'s voice trembled with disbelief and anxiety. The sight before him was daunting, with dark clouds veiling the horizon, bones forming grotesque mountains, and an oppressive aura that made it hard to breathe.

Angelina\'s smile, almost dismissive, only added to his confusion. "No, not me, Jaegar. You," she emphasized, causing his heart to race even faster.

"WHAT?" Jaegar\'s voice rose, his mind struggling to process the revelation. Stay here, in this nightmarish place filled with malevolence and danger? It was inconceivable.

"I can\'t even breathe properly here!" he protested, a sense of helplessness washing over him.

Angelina\'s sigh was laced with frustration. "Those damned imperial family members—what have they done to you? If your mother could see you right now, she would turn the imperial palace upside down." Jaegar\'s eyes widened in astonishment. His mother, powerful enough to shake the foundations of the royal palace? It was beyond his imagination.

Suddenly, a fierce desire to meet his mother swelled within him. He wished she could confront this woman before him, someone who was pushing him into this dangerous situation, expecting him to face unknown adversaries without even understanding his own powers.

"I don\'t know anything about fighting magic or my abilities," Jaegar exclaimed, feeling vulnerable and unprepared for the impending ordeal.
