A few minutes ago.

A certain Student, let's call him A was trying to convince his teacher to stop with her mad experiment.

Professor Caemfaere missed her son so much that she has gone crazy. Who would even believe a letter as crazy as that. How could Professor Caemfaere's son runs away from home and even join the ranger corp anyway?

The younger generation always idolizes the ranger lifestyle, however, if you are just a bit wise, you would realize being a wizard is simply better.

Not to mention, professor Caemfaere's son, that means, he is also the Arch Druid Voralanar Gaethlock's son too. Why would he even run away from home being son to those two amazing person?

It must be a scam, and then when teacher Caemfaere arrived there, she will be pissed again, and then next thing he knows, he will have to arrange a diplomatic solution between the royal family and the academy.

However, even before that, he has to struggle to survive.

"Professor. Let's talk about this."

However, the ancient elf was acting like a mad scientist.

"My baby boy... Ha ha... I can't believe it..."

In the academy, there is a place that you can't step foot on. It is professor Caemfaere's office. It is because her office is the place where research into the highest calling of the Elven Archmages are conducted.

When you are one step into becoming an Archmage like a certain Student C, your magic requirement stop being a problem because you can now tap into another realm of power.

When you are two step into becoming an Archmage like either a certain boyfriend-less Student B-

'Fuck. Can she read my thought?'

While a certain Student A was thinking bad thought about a certain female Archmage trainee, a magic bolt whizzes through his left ear.

A certain Student B acts oblivious

"For some reason, I feel like doing that."

Student A's heart was beating insanely fast.

'I can't even handle her normally, if she actually spontaneously develops the ability to read mind, I will just die.'

The highest calling of an Elven Archmage is the study into the properties of Space and Time. The High Elven Archmage such as professor Caemfaere can temporarily stops time for her enemies, or catch them in a loop area of time.

It is supposedly the highest power an Archmage can reach. However, their teacher told them it did not stop there. It is only the tip of the iceberg.

She told them time is connected to space, and that a master of Time magic can control space too.

And today, to get to her son, professor Caemfaere has brought them all to her secret project that she has been working on.

"We need to get to the capital city as fast as possible before he runs away. And that's why I brought you all today, as you are my closest disciples, I will show you something."

Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

The professor unveils her creation.

It was a circle carved into stone reminiscent of the Golden Age of the Elven Civilization.

"Professor, this is...!" Both Student A and B were surprised. A certain Student C is too young to understand the intricacies of such runes.

"Indeed indeed, this is the highest manifestation of my research.

In the Golden Age, our ancestor manages to build a series of Gateway across the world, allowing us elves to rule the world, however, such magic has since been lost.

Also, the Gateway can only connect from two predetermined points.

Combining the gate with my research, it only takes 20 years to finish this prototype.

The Omni Gate.

Instead of requiring a gate at the destination location, the Omni gate can take the user anywhere in the world as long as the user manages to finish the input calculation. With this, we should be able to shorten the 3 days travel duration to 1 minute."

Argh! Professor. Professor. What have you done? This will cause war if it leaks out to the real world. It has been a long time since the Golden Age of the Elves, and the Gateway network was center to everything. However, for millennia, no one has managed to crack it. What has you done professor? This is even better.

"Ah, I don't want to deal with this. I will just pretend that this doesn't exist."

Because, there will definitely be a war if this breaks out.

Also, there is a more important issue right now.

"Professor, have you tested your Omni Gate before?"

"No, but that's why you are all here today. You all get to test out my invention."

After hearing that, a certain Student A nods.

Living for 250 years, it was a good life. Then he nods toward his two fellow disciples.

Acting heroic one last time, Student A proclaims loudly

"Run, I will hold her back!"

A certain Student C and B nod. Student C even stays and says some poetic things

"Senior, I will always remember your sacrifice. You have always been heroic."

"Damn junior, run already!" A certain Student C yells at him before running first herself.

"Ah. What are you all doing?" Student A tries to stop his mentor as she has clearly gone mad, however, in the next moment, before he knows it, he was thrown toward the Omni Circle.

Student C, who was too busy with his poetic things were caught too and thrown next to him.

As for Student B who was running, she puts up a fight for sure. However, after one single hit, she fell too and was thrown toward the circle.

----------------------------------------

When Student A wakes up, he pretends to be unconscious to see what the situation is like.

"Aradon right? As a matter of fact, I am his roommate."

"Oh really?" That is the voice of his mentor

"Yeah, let me tell you, Aradon is the biggest simp that I have ever seen."

'Oh shit' At that moment, Student A thought 'Who is this stupid kid?'
