As soon as Leo returned inside the Manor, he then found Cassandra with a fresh new look.
Leo observed Cassandra from top to bottom before nodding his head repeatedly. At this moment, no one would be able to recognize her that easily anymore. Even those people who were familiar with her before.
Before, Cassandra was Devilishly beautiful; her charms were beyond belief, like how Humans had described those princesses of tales back on earth. It was like if he laid his eyes on her, he can't help but to want to take her somewhere alone and do some naughty things with her.
But right at this moment, Cassandra's looks had transformed from a Devilishly beauty to something like a mystery box, closed and hidden. She was still beautiful beyond belief at this moment, but unlike before that really felt like a fiery beauty, her charms now only attract a person to want to get to know her rather than lust. Her aura too, which feels like it could conquer anyone the moment someone looked at her, has also turned into an aura of a modest and honorable lady from a Noble Household.
Cassandra's new look has been totally changed. Her white hair, typical for any Blood race people, was now dyed light blue, which still looked like her natural hair color. It was also cut a little to make it a bit shorter, unlike her hair before which has reached to cover her butt. Moreover, her crimson-colored pupils before were now replaced with a black contact lens, which also made her eyes looked natural.
Cassandra's overall new look doesn't look like a person from the Blood race anymore after changing her looks but had instead turned into like a Human from a Noble Household. Though Blood race and Human race were already identical to each other, but, right now, no one would be able to suspect that Cassandra was actually a Blood race with her new looks.
However, Leo was still not really that attracted to Cassandra despite her new look. He was still attracted a bit, maybe from time to time, depending on how her face formed into in some situations, like when she was sleeping. But, he always put it in his mind that a person with that kind of beauty was really dangerous, especially when it's a woman. So, he had always kept it in mind not to entertain such romantic or perverted thoughts.
"What are you nodding at?!" Cassandra said annoyingly to Leo.
"Your looks, obviously. I rate it 99/100!" Leo said before quickly going to the kitchen to eat his breakfast. It was already near noon and he had yet still been able to eat his breakfast.
"Who needs your rating, you bastard!" Cassandra turned red for a moment before she yelled angrily at Leo from behind.
When Leo finally finished eating his breakfast, a Mail Bird suddenly arrived in the kitchen's window.
A Mail Bird was a Common docile Magical Beast that would deliver mails, the reason for its name. This bird's actual name was actually a Tracing Pigeon. But since they were used to delivering mail and the majority of ordinary people use them, they were then changed to make it sound friendly. These birds had a really strong sense of smell where they can pinpoint the location of the recognized smell and hence deliver the letter that they had received to the specific person after smelling that person's unique fragrance.
Leo looked at the bird as he quickly noticed a letter put into a tiny container on the Mail Bird's feet.
Leo went to grab it before carefully unfolding the letter to read its content.
"Oh, a letter from Madam Silva." Leo said as he continues to read the content
The letter's content was about the Mage Academy that Leo and Cassandra would be enrolled to.
While reading, Leo became really astonished the more he read the content of the letter.
Madam Silva had actually enrolled Leo to Silver Mage Academy!
The one and only Silver Mage Academy!
Silver Mage Academy, the biggest and most powerful Mage Academy in the entire Silver Kingdom. It was an Academy run by the Royal family, specifically the scholar Second Prince.
Mage Academy was separated into four different types. Ordinary, Elite, Aristocrat/Noble, and Royal.
Ordinary Mage Academies were for those Ordinary level Mages. These type of Mage Academies was established so that those Mages born from poor or average family could still be able to study Spells, Magic, and etc...
Elite Mage Academies were for those powerful, Genius, and Hardworking Mages from the Ordinary Mage Academy. Despite being born poor or average, those Mages from the bottom of society were still given the chance to be recognized by some powers by being recruited to an Elite rank Mage Academies. The Mages that graduated from this type of Academies could also be potentially promoted to become Nobles, too.
Aristocrat/Noble Mage Academies were made so that those Nobles and poor or average Mages could be separated. The main purpose for establishing this type of Academies was just to separate the Noble and the ordinary people, nothing more and nothing less. It doesn't care whether a Mage was Powerful, Genius, and Hardworking Mage. As long as they were a Mage from a Noble Household, such as Leo, then they can be enrolled into this type of Academies.
Lastly, Royal Mage Academy. Simply put, it was the Royal Academies for the Royal family.
Silver Mage Academy was a Royal Academy for Mages.
However, Leo was just from a Noble Household. Even if he was enrolled through a backdoor, it would still be impossible to get in since the Royal family was not stupid to leave such a loophole. Hence, how was Madam Silva able to enroll him in such a prestigious Academy?
The reason for that was simply because the Silver Kingdom doesn't like to promote an Aristocrat/Noble Academy. According to the Royal family of Silver Kingdom; "they want to just merge both Noble and Royal Academies into one."
It was done this way so that the Nobles and Royalty of the Silver Kingdom would be able to interact with each other and hence being able to better-established communication and organization. Simply put, it was established that way so that Noble Household and the Royal Family could work with each other easily.
Hence, Madam Silva was able to Leo in such type of Mage Academies.
However, there were plenty of Royal Mage Academy, specifically 10, and the Silver Mage Academy was the number 1. So Leo became really astonished when he finished reading the entire letter.
"No wonder why the others said that the Sword and Magic have the same strength as Empires. Look, even just a Branch Head of a Sword and Magic can arrange for me to enroll in the number 1 Mage Academy of Silver Kingdom." Leo said before letting out a short laugh.
With this chance given to Leo plus his new given ability, becoming a powerful Mage could be realized sooner or later.
Leo put the letter carefully in his pocket as he went to see the others. He would tell them that he would be going to the Silver Kingdom with Cassandra tomorrow to finalize his enrollment.
.....
The next day, Leo woke up at the same time as usual. He went to his bathroom to take a bath before going to the kitchen to eat his breakfast.
After doing all his morning routines. Leo went back to his room to prepare for his trip to Silver City.
Leo wasn't bringing a lot today, only a few gold coins for some unexpected uses, and his usual weapon, an iron dagger. He also went to check his consciousness whether he has a Wind Elemental prepared beforehand, too.
Leo noticed yesterday that the moment he unsummoned his Wind Elemental, it had actually not appeared back in his consciousness. So, he needed to always keep in mind to check whether he has an Elemental prepared in case of any unexpected emergency.
Cassandra was already waiting outside of the Manor the moment Leo got outside.
"Morning, are you ready?" Leo asked as he put his stuff inside a leather bag attached to the side of his horse.
Cassandra just threw him a cold glance as if saying 'yes'.
"Don't tell me you're still angry with what had happened before?"
"Hmph!"
Leo was really having a hard time dealing with Cassandra. Though she was his slave, it would sometimes appear that he was the slave in some of their interaction because of the way he needed to act just to get her attention.
"If you keep on acting this way, it would really be hard to improve our relationship." Leo said before quickly riding on his horse.
"What relationship, you bastard!!" Cassandra yelled out at him from behind.
Leo just laughed it off. He knew that one day would come that Cassandra would stop acting such away.. It was hard to adapt to becoming a slave, especially when she was a princess before.
