SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

Chapter 1: 1. Golden Piggy Card

Silver Leaf Town, inside an old villa...

"Stop faking your study. You're not cut out for magic," a cold voice interrupted Kt as he tried to study a basic-level magic spell.

Kt adjusted his glasses and turned his gaze towards the beautiful woman before him, Thea Frost– his promised bride. She was five years older than him and worked as an elder at the same wizard school where Kt was a studt.

Kt was matched with Thea by her grandmother, who had adopted Kt. Last year, their grandmother died, and from that momt on, his nightmare began.

"What are you staring at? Get up," Thea snapped, interrupting his thoughts once again before closing the spell book before him.

"Wifey, what's going on?" Kt asked Thea with a pale face. Though Thea disliked him from the start, she had never be this forceful to him.

"Your freeloading days are over, Kt. I promised my grandmother that I would take care of you until you became an adult. Today is your 8th birthday. So, find some work and feed yourself from now on. Also, leave the villa in a few days; I'm selling it," Thea declared harshly, showing no consideration for his feelings.

"But, Thea, I'm your husband. Where can I go?" Kt asked, not taking Thea's words to heart.

"You useless piece of shit, stop calling me 'WIFEY'. No one marries a loser like you. All you want is a sugar momma; go find one," Thea spat as she took the spell book from Kt.

Though angry, Kt remained silt and didn't utter a single word. His adopted grandmother had made him promise to always love Thea, no matter the situation. Her last words were still fixed in his heart.

Five minutes later, Kt stood outside the door with his old, tattered bamboo bag. Thea locked the door and called for her pet with a whistle.

Without having any pets to carry him to the Wizard School, Kt continued to walk down the road with a depressed face, thinking about what part-time jobs he could get from his 3rd-grade Magus level.

Just as he reached the wizard school trance, two bald eagles landed forcefully before him.

'Ahh~'

Tak aback, Kt fell back on the road, a second later blood started dripping from his elbow.

"Hey Kt, where are my coins? You said you would pay up today," a lady with a , fat face and plump bosom demanded, ignoring Kt's bleeding elbow.

Kt slowly stood up, blocking the bleeding with his bare hand. "I don't have any coins now. Give me a few days. I'm starting a part-time job today, and I will definitely pay up as soon as possible," he replied while blowing his burning elbow.

But ev after a long time, the rav didn't attack Kt as he had expected. Controlling his trembling limbs, Kt slowly oped his eyes to see why he was still alive.

His gaze landed on the rav's silver beak. For some odd reason, the rav is staring at his face with a scrutinizing gaze. As Kt's gaze met the rav's crimson gaze, his heart began racing with fear.

'Akk.... Akkk... kkk...'

The black rav made coughing sounds, and in the next instance, a crystal ball appeared on its beak. The rav slowly bt its head down, gesturing for Kt to take the sky-blue crystal ball.

Ev though he was quite baffled, Kt slowly stretched his shaking hand and picked up the crystal ball from the rav's beak.

As soon as Kt grabbed the sky crystal with both hands, it vibrated with an incoming communication request. The image on the crystal ball belonged to a middle-aged woman with youthful looks.

The lady continued to stare at Kt's face with a deep look.

"Hi," Kt replied in a confused tone.

In the next second, the lady's eyes filled with tears, and in an emotional tone, she spoke, "Kt, do you remember me? I'm your aunt."

Kt was shocked. For instance, he thought someone was playing tricks on him. But the tears in the woman's eyes and her emotional outbreak seemed guine, convincing him of her sincerity.

'Grandmother said I didn't have any relatives. Th where is this aunt coming from? She called my name directly. That means she's definitely looking for me.' Kt's thoughts raced as he struggled to digest this sudd twist in his life.

"Kt, I'm really sorry. I should have found you a little early. But I promise you that from now on, I will really make up for my mistake. Due to our emies, I couldn't meet you in person. Soon, I will clear up all the problems and meet in person. There is a piggy card in the rav's pouch, and I have deposited 5,000 gold coins in it for your pocket money.

If you spd it all, just sd me a message. Your mom left a fortune for you. I will tell you all the details wh I meet you personally. Love You, Kt."

The woman's image faded out on the crystal ball, a special edition of Sky Ball from the wizard association. Kt finally believed that he really had a relative in this world.

While the rav still stood steadily before him, Kt controlled his fear and reached his hand inside the creature's feathery pouch.
