Zhi! Zhi!
A portal made of fiery sparks appeared in Kamar-Taj, and Leon and Wong stepped through it. Leon had changed into a shirt, though he was still wearing beach shorts.
Kamar-Taj, located in Kathmandu, is an ancient sanctuary for sorcerers. Its architecture is classical, perched high among the mountains, with distant peaks visible on all sides. Sorcerers of various kinds and races could be seen practicing in their robes, while others hurried past, clutching what looked like magical tomes. The atmosphere was harmonious and serene.
Leon, in his white shirt, shorts, and sunglasses, stood out in this tranquil setting. His casual attire attracted the curious glances of many mages, but he appeared unbothered. Under Wong's guidance, he followed him to one of the main halls of Kamar-Taj.
At the entrance, twelve stone steps led up to the hall, designed in Kamar-Taj's traditional wooden architectural style, embodying a classical elegance. Inside, the hall was spacious, with cushioned mats set beneath wooden windows along each side. Two elderly sorcerer in white robes sat on these mats, engrossed in their books.
At the far end of the hall sat a bald woman in white robes at a low wooden table, brewing tea—none other than the Supreme Sorcerer, the Ancient One. As Leon and Wong approached, the Ancient One nodded and spoke gently, "Thank you for your hard work, Wong. You may rest."
"It is my duty, Sorcerer Supreme," Wong replied humbly, casting a glance at Leon before turning to leave.
