Zenith Ichiban had a plan to be on top, and eventually, he reached the top and no villain was thrilling enough to fight.

He enrolled as a teacher in a magic school at twenty, believing that teenagers, in the spring of their youth, would entertain him. 

Yet, these teenagers weren't thrilling enough and couldn't bear his honest opinion about how lame their magic was. 

Zenith Ichiban thought he would spend the rest of his life looking for some spark... 

Until those FIVE students reared their heads, and the villains caught wind of the return of the Prodigy Mage. 

Chaos ensued, and Zenith struggled to keep his quiet life while keeping his students from danger.

The SSSSS-Rank Mage In A Mundane World

As Escanor watched the strange creature, he noticed its hair brighten from the blue color to a shade of red and its body began pulsing.

He began sensing his essence oozing from it. He sighed. It didn't even take permission before sucking essence and it didn't seem to care who it took from.

It transformed to a smaller version of Escanor, and while it felt weird to see himself, Escanor preferred the creature bothered him than Zenith who had a life that couldn't accommodate it.

"Well, I'm bored and you chased Zen away, so you have to stay with me." He extinguished the flames around him and the creature came closer.

But it didn't go to Escanor and rather zoomed past him, heading for where Zenith had been.

"Hey!" Escanor chased after it and realized something frightful. It was fast, as he was fast. Could this creature do more than clone and absorb his essence?
