The Black Serpent dived into the dark lake, rising turbulent black waves soaring into the sky. It rapidly traversed through the dark environment, its descent stirring powerful whirlpools as it directly flashed to the bottom of the lake.

Unbeknownst to them, on their appearance, numerous invisible ancient runes instantly brightened and glowed underneath the black ground. They linked and connected, forming a dark passage that stretched upwards.

"Master, where should we start looking? I am sensing the dimensional rift at this location, but do not see any crack or opening on the ground."

Enveloped in a barrier of black light to ward off against the stray waves, Crown Prince Lail also pensively looked around.

From their position, he too sensed the slight disturbance in the energy fluctuation, but could not find anything.

Before either of the two could take any action, however, a violent vortex suddenly formed beneath their figures, sucking them into a world of darkness.

Crown Prince Lail secured his hold on the protruding scales of the Black Serpent as the two swirled within the relentless fierce currents, the sudden unbearable water pressure, and maelstrom clouding their vision with pain and darkness.

After a short period of time traveling in absolute darkness, the two's forms were forcefully tossed out of the vortex, sailing through a white sky, before heavily crashing down with a splash on the shore of the lake.

Drained and exhausted, man and beast dragged their heavy bodies out of the black water onto dry land, falling roughly on their backs, before passing out.

Black-blue light flashed around the huge form of the Black Serpent, transforming into a black spear.

The white sky turned blue, then black, before going back to white.

It was at this time that Crown Prince Lail's motionless form twitched before he groggily turned on his side and sat up. The Crown Prince's gaze instantly fell on the black spear.

"Thank you, Black Serpent." Grabbing it, he gently caressed the black spear.

At the moment of their sudden transport, the Black Serpent used its body to shield the still unskilled Crown Prince from the force and impact of the magical whirlpool, taking on most of the water pressure and elemental magic on itself.

Even though the act was not majestic and grand, displaying a magnificent sight, since the spiritual beast was able to protect the Crown Prince at the moment of danger, at that instant, it deeply touched Crown Prince Lail, warming his cold heart.

It had unreservedly protected him from serious and fatal injuries.

As such, the Crown Prince's feelings towards the Black Serpent changed slightly from one of just master and subordinate to one of friendship.

Once he thanked the Black Serpent the Crown Prince immediately got to his feet, spear in hand. Looking around, he froze in amazement.

The land he was in had three moons floating in the sky in white, blue, and black. Two of the moon were dim while one glowed with white radiance.

Under the three moons, white cranes, colorful flying beasts, and blue-green winged sea creatures flew about carrying people as they entered and exited a humongous castle.

The ginormous castle was made out of all silver bricks, its silver towers stretching beyond the cloudless sky as it glowed under the brilliance of the white moon.

The castle was expansive, the only building spread out in the whole dimension, with exquisite and otherworldly ancient carvings of vines, leaves, stars, moons, and other artistic crafts decorating its appearance.

Encircling the enormous castle, was a huge blue magical dome that seemed to act as a shield as it intermittently appeared and disappeared.

And beyond the huge castle, was a forest of white trees, brimming and thriving with life as numerous colorful birds, flame moths, lighting flies flew about in the air, while the occasional roars of beasts resounded.

Crown Prince Lail stood in a daze as he took in the new sights. He had expected the magical academy to be unique, but he did not expect it to be so huge either, its size rivaling the imperial palace.

Even though the Amayan Empire was one of the most prosperous empires' within the entire seven realms, with its beautiful aquine stones and blue aurora, it did not possess the ethereal and magical appearance of this place.

'So this is the Amayan Mistland Academy?'

He thought in wonder as he watched a three-winged lighting beast spout out lighting as it flew across the white sky.

His heart throbbed in excitement at finally arriving at the destination that was going to shape his and his wife's future.

On the other side, a group of ten men in white robes were rushing forth on a white crane as they flew in Crown Prince Lail's direction, making it obvious that his sudden presence in the magical dimension had not gone unnoticed, alarming the magicians to immediately send out scouts to check the situation.

At this moment, in front of the group of ten, stood one tall, clean shaven man of about nineteen, silently observing the surroundings for any other abnormalities as he led the team.

"Senior brother, I heard the master's felt the presence of an outsider at the Black Sea. How do you think he got in?" A young man of 18 asked as he looked towards the man in the lead.

"Obviously, he used some sort of magical tool, otherwise, how could anyone enter the Academy grounds outside of the selection period." Another on his right responded before the senior could.

"The tool will naturally have to be very powerful to be able to open a portal to our Academy's dimension. If so, the trespasser could not be an ordinary person." Another on the senior brother's side said, furrowing his brows in thought.

"Whatever may be the case, we just have to see to it that we bring him before the council of elders. It is not our responsibility to worry about whether or not the trespasser is ordinary or extraordinary." The senior finally nonchalantly replied, his quiet gaze still fixed in the distance.

"Yes, senior brother!" The group chorused, the respect they felt for their senior brother obvious in their attitude and shinning gaze.

And like this, the group finally arrived before Crown Prince Lail who was silently standing straight with his black spear in his hand, his bright gaze fixed on the descending group of ten.

'A magic academy, huh? Than let me see for myself what this magic academy has to offer me.'
