After my meeting with the First Tower Master, I’m shown to my suite of rooms. Which is rather large and incredibly fancy. To the point of having a lab and other facilities in it.

It even has a gym and swimming pool that I’m never going to use.

I don’t exactly have to work to keep in shape after all. Not when my body doesn’t lose the muscle it had when I first became immortal.

Nor does it gain muscle, unfortunately. But I was pretty fit when it happened, so it doesn’t matter.

Anyway, I spend time in the lab until the day for the opening ceremony finally arrives. At which point I change into the formal attire given to me by my own subordinates before coming here – a fancy black suit with a wider collar and the ends of the sleeves folded back a little – and head over towards the opening ceremony chamber.

The opening ceremonies themselves are split into different parts.

It starts with the opening ceremony banquet. Which is kind of like a high class party which is mostly just for the upper class people of the world to attend.

High Class magicians, high ranking nobles, and even royals and imperials.

And no reporters are allowed.

Then the next part is a grand ceremony in the form of a parade down a blue carpet in between rows of reporters – and in the case of this year – the public as well. Since normally only reporters are allowed to attend that part and not regular citizens.

And finally, there’s the opening discussion about the first trial.

So it’s going to be a hassle to deal with all of this.

I’m not exactly the type to enjoy this sort of public spectacle after all. Much less all the people watching me like a unique zoo animal thanks to my immortality.

While walking through the halls, I hear some sort of magical announcement echoing throughout the floor of the tower every time a Class S magician enters the banquet hall for the ceremony.

“Now entering, the Sun of the Stars, Emperor of the Empire of Maltar, welcome Emperor Voltath Chalron Maltar!”

“Now entering, the Ruler of the Great Atlantis, The Sea Magician Aurelius!”

“Now entering, the Dominator of the Ancients, Quelrath Velmuth D’Chlar!”

I narrow my eyes as I walk before turning a corner and finding a grand looking hall leading to a set of double doors that are currently open. With numerous people walking down said grand hallway, and the sight of a glowing white barrier blocking any vision of whatever is inside the room the doors lead to from me located in between the doors.

As for the people I see walking through the grand hall? They’re all Class S magicians with only a few exceptions.

And even those exceptions are still Class A magicians.

Also, they keep announcing more grand sounding titles and names every time a different person passes through the white light. With one of the names in particular that I heard before entering the hall being one I recognize.

Because he’s the emperor of one of the three largest nations in the world.

One of the nations in that alliance.

I don’t see him though since he’s already passed through the light. And on top of that, I can feel the gazes of everyone in the hall on me right now as I walk.

Even if they aren’t looking at me with their eyes to be polite, I can tell all of their magical senses are on me.

Which doesn’t really surprise me.

I’m the only one here with death mana radiating from my body after all. And the only one with more than one mana in general as I have fire mana in my body too.

Well, regardless of their looks, I ignore them as I walk through the grand hall with my hands on the pommels of my swords. All the way until I reach the white light myself and appear at the center of a grand banquet hall filled with tables and people at the tables and all around them.

Meanwhile I hear the words from earlier echoing through the hall, making everyone go silent and turn to look at me at the same time.

“Now entering, the trial contestant from the Undying Caverns, the Undying Magician, Nathan Fox!”

I look around the hall at the dozens upon dozens of people. All of whom are either Class A or Class S magicians.

And even just amongst the Class S magicians, there are at least fifty of them total here. With more still entering as I sensed more out in the hall before entering that white barrier.

I can’t help but raise a brow when I see four people in particular approaching me though.

Three of whom are the rulers of the Alliance, none of whom should be here openly according to what I was told by the Tower Master that guided me here. Since he said that they would attend in secret.

But these three clearly aren’t attending in secret.

One even had his name announced while I was coming here. Although the other two seem to have arrived before me.

As for the fourth of the people approaching me? That would be the First Tower Master.

So pretty much, these four people are the strongest people in the entire world.

Albeit with three of them only being the strongest in terms of influence and not personal magical power.

That said, they are still quite powerful. And they have rather unique magics even if two aren’t Class S magicians.

Only one of the three rulers is a Class S magician. But the other two are almost Class S magicians.

I can even tell that they’re manipulating their mana without magic circles.

And they’re actually my age.

Which is the most surprising of it all.

Or it would be if I didn’t already know.

Anyway, time to meet the most important people in the world.
