The guard lead heaved a long sigh of relief before standing off to the side.
All of the magic casters turned toward the purple-robed magic caster in unison, and extended respectful bows as they said, "We pay our respects to President Richard."
Richard was the leader of the Magus Tower elder panel, the president of Roth Empire's magic caster guild, and also the current owner of the Magus Tower. The combination of those titles made him one of the most powerful men in the entire Roth Empire.
Krassu was the founder of the Magus Tower, but Richard was the one who had elevated the status of all magic casters to the next level. He had made the Magus Tower one of the twin towers of the Roth Empire, taking it to a level where it was comparable to the empire's army, and also significantly elevated the importance of magic casters in the entire empire.
