Near Kayden’s house, there was a teenager with several bruises on his body and his clothes in tatters. He was short and had very visible canines. His blonde hair and pointed ears gave him away as an elf.
"Good morning, Lucas", Kayden greeted the same boy who managed to reach the treasure while entering the academy.
"Hello, professor", his speech came out with gaps, he was worn out.
"You came alone?" Kayden remembered setting the difficulty level so they couldn’t do the climb alone.
"No, but I was the only one who wasn’t rescued along the way." These elves were mostly flowers in a greenhouse, but the mountain was a brutal climb. In the early days, they could not climb even a hundred meters before being destroyed by any circumstances.
Over time, they formed teams and learned to deal with challenges. Even so, it wasn’t easy, and the only one who had managed to climb it so far was Lucas, and not even he believed he could climb it again.
"Let’s start the class then", Kayden asked Lucas to show his techniques and explain his doubts. Kayden could easily show him a path to follow and demonstrate where many of his mistakes were.
The personal lesson lasted about two hours before Kayden felt Lucas’s performance slipping. At this time, he just threw the young man down the hill and told him to come here again anytime.
A week later, the arrival of students became more common, but there were still few who went up. They tried to form large groups to overcome the challenges more easily, but Felix just sent more golems, which forced them to split up.
Kayden had already set aside two days a week to teach, Monday and Friday. Any other day that a student arrived there and rang his bell, he was severely beaten by Kayden and then thrown down the mountain.
At the end of the month, everyone in the room managed to reach the top at least once. It was still difficult and they did it with extreme effort. Kayden took a teaspoon to his room and only let them come up once every two weeks.
Over time, they would improve considerably and be able to climb both days of the week, but this would probably take at least a year. Kayden had already thought about increasing the difficulty progressively.
That would make it a workout for them. The students also had many other classes to take during the week, which meant they couldn’t spend the entire time just climbing the mountain.
Kayden’s training method was very different from the rest. Athena’s room, for example, was already much stronger than at the beginning, while Kayden’s room was just getting bruises and no techniques.
At the top of the mountain, there were around 14 people. Kayden was teaching a private lesson on a random Monday when one of his students raised a question with him, a small mistake on his part.
"Teacher, why didn’t you come and see us at the monthly fights? We didn’t get a good position, all the other classes have different crazy techniques." The rest nodded in agreement.

Time made them realize that Kayden was a very approachable and calm person. Even though he was a teacher, he was not someone who used his superior position to impose himself on his students. He also didn’t fight over their mistakes.
"Just let time pass. You must be able to develop your techniques and, in the end, this will bear greater fruit. All the training so far has only been intended to fix the errors in your foundations. I want to give a broad base. Don’t pay attention to the monthly championships, that doesn’t mean anything. Glory is fleeting, fame is illusory, and only power is eternal. Dismissed."
Kayden threw everyone off the mountain. He had no idea what this monthly championship was and even if he did he didn’t care either. Soon after he sent everyone out, one of the helpers arrived saying that his purchase had arrived.
He went down and picked up dozens of different seedlings from a third-realm wizard. Together with Felix, he began setting up his treasure plantation just above. He had many treasures from the abyss that could be cultivated, he just lacked the correct materials.
He had already completely given up his side hustles, and he didn’t have time for that. With every second that passed, he felt that he was closer to dying and he urgently needed to be able to gain the strength to fight Seven Lightning.
Time passed quickly and six months after Kayden had started as a teacher, he was called away by one of the aides. According to him, a meeting never seen before was being held and everyone with any weight in world politics was being called.
The invitation to Kayden was made by the human and elf alliance together. The number of invited organizations at the moment was about six: the human and beast alliance, the elves, the dwarves, the Orcs, the dark elves, and the human beast race.
As soon as Kayden left the mountain, the administrator was waiting for him. He hadn’t changed anything during that time, not that Kayden had changed anything either. Six months represented nothing in their lives anymore.
"Hello, administrator, may I know the reason for this meeting?" Kayden greeted him friendly and got straight to the point. Depending on the reason, he wouldn’t even participate.
"Let’s discuss some important points about this world. Furthermore, we will enter the final phase of your guardian’s plan," Kayden didn’t quite understand the last part, but left it aside.
The administrator levitated the two and propelled them at an absurd speed off the planet. In just a few seconds, they had the earth beneath their feet and an immense outer space bathed in bright stars.
They traveled for a few seconds while the administrator checked the direction on a golden compass. It took at least an hour for them to find an asteroid with a gigantic table and several chairs scattered around.
Kayden didn’t know, but the space outside the planet was messed up by Merlin to prevent any jokers from trying anything. Only those inside with the compass could get in and out, and even they had some effort in doing so.
The administrator guided them to one end of the table where the empress, her husband, and Azir were sitting. Every person in this environment had the aura of someone in the fifth realm. Only at this level could they have any relevance.
Representing the Orcs, there was a huge creature wearing luxurious clothes, he wore a suit measuring almost 4 meters in size, something very strange for his race. Furthermore, its color was gray, quite different from the usual green skin.
The representative of the bestial humans was a woman with shoulder-length hair and white cat ears. Furthermore, she had a white tail that extended down her back. Its eyes were slightly curved and resembled those of a cat.
One of the dark elves was an elf with completely black skin, not something dark like we have in humanity, but something artificial. Furthermore, he had pointy ears, but the main feature was his red eyes and the dozens of red lines on his body.
The representative of the dwarves was two people: a thin dwarf with wizard-like features, very thin and with a finished appearance, while at his side there was an ana with brown hair and green eyes. She was holding the other dwarf’s hand, the problem was that she was strong and seemed to be crushing the other dwarf’s hand.
"With everyone together, we can start this session." A voice came out of nowhere and Kayden saw for the second time in his life the space shatter. A three-dimensional crack appeared in the air and behind it an immensity of...
Manna. Kayden was able to see and feel such a ridiculous density of mana coming out of that space that it could cause anyone to die instantly from a mana overdose. Not even Kayden, with his control, would be able to fend off that much mana.
The one who came out was an elf with shaved hair and prominent ears. His eyes were an intense blue that Kayden had never seen before. He wore a cloak that left half of his chest showing.
"To the new arrival, I am Yame, the elf guardian of this planet." He waited for Kayden to introduce himself, and to everyone’s surprise, the boy’s voice didn’t shake or waver. "Well, now we will start the agenda and we will take the votes. The first point is what percentage of the population were you able to reach?"
Then, each race and organization spoke a percentage, all with high values, most above 90%. It seemed to be a plan they had been building for years and years.
"Very well, we will keep the final event in about 50 years, second point, should slavery be legalized? Logically we will follow the universal rules on this, but it is a necessary step for the planet to enter the universal map in the future"
