A Stay-at-home Dad's Restaurant In An Alternate World - Chapter 1870

Chapter 1870: Can’t Even Compare To These Useless Things From The Magus Tower?

All the screens were focused on Amy, giving enough attention to this new champion.

For three years after today, she would be the topic for the world of magic casters.

No one doubted that she would become a legend.

This moment marked the start of her saga.

Everyone’s respect for Master Krassu could make them overlook Amy’s identity as a half-elf, and the exciting matches made them respect Amy.

Kassadin, who just won the champion title for the youth category, looked at Amy on the screen, and was speechless.

Before this, he always thought that his biggest regret in this year’s Magic Caster Tournament would be being chosen for the youth category, and losing the chance to stand out in the Magic Caster Tournament.

However, at this moment, as he watched Amy winning the champion title of the magic caster category after thrashing so many of the so-called talented magic casters, and even those who just broke through to the 8th-tier, Kassadin was actually secretly relieved.

Compared to losing to her, he could at least be the champion of the youth category. On top of that, he was sure to become the disciple of the Magus Tower’s elders. That did not seem like a disadvantage.

Kassadin felt like everything was clear now.

“It’s such a pity that such a talented little magic caster doesn’t actually belong to the Roth Empire,” Andre said with a laugh as he looked at Amy, not at all trying to hide his admiration and adoration towards Amy.

Krassu lifted his brows. He squinted slightly, but did not say anything.

“Royal Father knows how to appreciate talents. Why don’t you offer Master Krassu to let this little magic caster join the Magus Tower so that she could improve faster with the resources that we have in the Magus Tower? There are also many 10th-tier magic casters who could teach her,” Josh, who had been quiet, said with a smile.

“Mm-hm. Josh makes sense.” Andre nodded. He turned to look at Krassu. “Krassu, what do you think?”

“Your Majesty appreciates talents, and I would naturally be happy for Amy.” Krassu smiled. He looked at Josh, and said coldly, “However, from what the second prince said just now, you think that I am not giving Amy enough resources to train, or do you think that I and Urien can’t even compare to these useless things from the Magus Tower?”

Everyone from the Magus Tower had a strange expression. As the creator of the Magus Tower, Krassu was a tier higher than even the oldest elders. When he was the president, useless things basically were what he would call the other magic casters, and some of them were the elders of the Magus Tower.

“Krassu, watch your words in front of His Majesty.” Richard’s expression did not look too good. It was fine back then when Krassu was the president, but now that Krassu had already announced his departure from the Magus Tower, he should not still be calling them useless things.

Josh was still smiling amicably. He shook his head, and said, “Master Krassu, you’re mistaken. As the one who started the Magus Tower, and the one who built the foundation of the world of magic casters in the Roth Empire, you’re the respected master of all magic casters. In just a short span of half a month, you managed to train a four-year-old little girl into the champion of the Magic Caster Tournament. No one can doubt the ability that you have and the effort you’ve put into raising her.

“It’s just that right now, the situation on the continent is rather tense. There are other races eyeing us, and the constant threat of the devil. Why don’t you return to the Magus Tower along with your disciple and do your part for the citizens of the Roth Empire?”

Andre nodded and looked at Krassu.

This bastard. Alex should have just finished him back then, Krassu thought to himself. He hated all the twists and turns of politics. He did not want to carry on as the president of the Magus Tower also because the king started to bring up troublesome requests, like taking Josh as his disciple.

Now, it seemed that his decision to leave had still been very much the right thing to do. Otherwise, not only would he have had to miss the chance of taking in precious Amy as his disciple, but he would also have been stuck with a very cunning and terrible disciple. There would, of course, be other troublesome things he would be inevitably involved in, like the fight for the throne.

“Your Majesty, back then, the Roth Empire was weak. That was why we built the Magic Caster Alliance, and then developed it into the Magus Tower to protect the people of the Roth Empire.

“For decades, the number of magic casters in the Roth Empire had been increasing rapidly. The magic caster schools that had been set up in different places were also doing well, causing a positive cycle of the magic caster production system, and allowing the Roth Empire to become the place with the most magic casters in the continent.

“On top of that, Your Majesty has been running the country well, allowing the Roth Empire knights’ quantity and quality to top the other races in Norland Continent.

“Those so-called strong races back then are no longer a threat to the Roth Empire. Now, the Roth Empire could even have a chance against the giant dragons.

“We’ve already met our objective behind creating the Magus Tower back then, and my mission was completed. Therefore, I chose to leave. Now, I have Little Amy as my disciple, and all I want to do is to train her up well. I have no intention to do other things.” Krassu looked at Andre with a smile, and said, “Besides, Amy isn’t my disciple alone. I don’t think Urien would like to come to Rodu, much less join the Magus Tower.”

The Magus Tower’s elders were deep in thought. Most of them entered the Magus Tower to learn when it just started. The Magus Tower back then was indeed very different from what it was right now. The regulations imposed in the past seemed like they required them to become a magic caster-knight who had high moral values.

As for the Magus Tower right now, after years of revolution under Richard, it seemed more prosperous, yet something seemed to be missing.

The king was very ambitious. However, now Krassu had already laid his cards out on the table, and expressed his unwillingness to join the Roth Empire in its expansion.

Andre looked at Krassu, and fell silent for a while. He sighed, and said regretfully, “Master Krassu, the Roth Empire owes you a lot, and I really appreciate talent, but I will not force you if you’re unwilling. I shall not bring this matter up again.”

“I was too rash. I hope Royal Father and Master Krassu will forgive me for my abruptness,” Josh said as he stood up, and gave them a bow.

“It’s alright.” Andre waved his hand.

Krassu glanced at Josh, and nodded slightly.

The other courtiers and magic casters from the Magus Tower did not dare to make a sound.

“I shall personally present the award to this little champion.” Andre’s laughter broke the silence.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, and could not help but praise the king for being magnanimous and forgiving. Not only did he not fault Krassu, he even graced his disciple with such an honor.

“Could the champion and first runner-up please proceed to the stage to receive their reward? The ranking matches for the top 32 among the rest of the contestants will begin tomorrow!”

The emcee’s voice echoed throughout the arena.

“I’m going to receive my award.” Amy quickly shrunk her magic caster’s staff, and kept it before hopping her way to the elevated platform. She pulled out a strawberry-flavored lollipop, and peeled off the wrapper skillfully. After that, she put it into her mouth, and smiled adorably.

Jasper kept his magic wand rather depressingly, and followed behind Amy with his eyes looking down.

The 10th elder finally found an opportunity to get to the elevated platform, and whispered something to Richard.

“What?!” Richard exclaimed as his expression changed.
