Transcending into a World of Magic
Matthew found himself in a game world, but it seemed like his system had a little hiccup.
“Class: Necromancer
Mission: Plant Trees
Objective: 1000 trees
Rewards: Summon ‘Bone Dragon’ & a ton of EXP.”
And just like that, a Necroma...
2023-10-29 03:10:50 +0000 UTC View PostThanks to the well-established image of a necromancer and Matthew's exceptional acting skills, he successfully infiltrated the necromancer camp.
However, he remained vigilant throughout.
From start to finish.
He never walked side by side with Fayn or the big guy.
He mingled in the center, guarded by the skeleton soldiers.
He followed behind them the whole way.

Matthew's face lit up with excitement.
This was also a signature spell of the Druids.
The "Growth Elixir" he used earlier for planting trees was an alchemical form of this spell.
Because it went through alchemical processing, its effect was somewhat diminished.
If he could master this spell proficiently, his tree-planting abilities would rival those...

"Clank, clank."
Matthew scooped up a handful of gold coins and tossed them into a small clay jar before placing it into his magical pouch. The entire process was accompanied by the pleasing sound of metal rolling.
"There's no sound more delightful tha...

A two-meter-tall minotaur skeleton stood proudly.
Blackthorn's expression darkened as he stared at Peggy.
Unlike the skeleton warriors, Peggy's bones were far superior in both color and texture.
Especially the bones between her waist and legs, which had a dark golden hue that looked mysterious and powerful under the moonlight.

2023-10-29 03:06:34 +0000 UTC View PostDivination had failed.
Matthew's expression remained unchanged as he stowed the crystal ball in the cabinet. This was a common occurrence for him. He was a necromancer, and divination was far from his forte. Although he had a penchant for dabbling in it over the years, the results were consistently unsatisfactory. He took a moment to steady his emotions.
Matthew eventually made his ...

Matthew rose early.
Today was Saturday.
He didn't have to attend classes at the Westfell Academy during the day, giving him the perfect opportunity to complete his final mission objectives.
He hastily grabbed several bags of saplings from the greenhouse and headed out.
Peggy's attention to detail was remarkable. In addition to everything needed for pl...

Rolling Stone Town.
Spring.
A blue-feathered and golden-chested robin fluttered its wings and took off from the lawn in front of the City Hall's main entrance. It soared over a few chimneys and the roofs painted in shades of brick-red. With finesse, it perched on an oak tree wrapped in walls of red and yellow.
Beneath the branch, bugs were crawling.<...
2023-10-29 03:05:34 +0000 UTC View PostNo wonder the wizarding realm guarded the formula for the "Source of Magic" so fiercely. If it were to be disclosed, it would probably lead to a witch hunt. Those apprentice wizards who lacked talent and were eager to advance would do anything to get their hands on it.
"So, this is the meaning of 'Bloodthorn,' isn't it?" Lynn immediately felt that the name was quite apt, just like the pro...

"Stop!" Lynn cried out.
Radak was in a complete panic. He immediately retracted all his power, causing the enormous magic construct to come to a halt. Following this, a sharp sound wave reverberated continuously within the sealed laboratory.
The nearby magical missiles, just inches away, were also affected by some intense force and soon exploded with ...
2023-10-28 19:37:23 +0000 UTC View PostLadek saw that Lynn remained motionless, thinking that faced with this bloody and mangled corpse, he didn't know where to begin. So, he spoke up, offering some advice.
"Let's start with the organs, cut away the useless rotten flesh..."
Lynn finally snapped back to reality and began dissecting Ralph's body with a blank expression. The skin was ice-cold to the touch, with some frozen ...
2023-10-28 19:36:47 +0000 UTC View PostLadak surveyed the chaotic scene inside the laboratory, then looked at the heavily injured Coleman and the several dead guards. His gaze finally settled on the half-beast lying on the ground, seemingly lifeless.
"It was Thimis... It was all Thimis's doing!" Bok cried out as he rushed to Ladak's side, shouting loudly, afraid of being held responsible.
Ladak paid no attention to Bok's...

Lynn looked disdainfully at the equipment at hand, not even a decent surgical knife. He had no choice but to use a sharp knife for flame sterilization.

He lay there, completely naked, with dried and darkened skin, pale and cracked lips, and arms twisted in a grotesque manner, as if they had been forcibly broken. His body was covered in scars of various kinds, but he hadn't succumbed to death. He lay there, eyes closed, breathing steadily...

Nur's body had changed dramatically after death; the miraculous regenerative ability it once possessed was now gone, leaving it shrunken and resembling green jer...

It's also possible that they used magic to manipulate those fairies to place this thing on his desk.
Lynn immediately realized this, and the bright red envelope seemed to react as if it sensed something, shaking ever so slightly.

Without hesitation, Lynn cast a spell, summoning a sturdy wall of ice before him....

In other words, it was highly likely that the inner circle of the Society of Mystical Arts had already deciphered the airship's manufacturing method. The only question was whe...

Nul listened, his forehead beading with cold sweat, as he watched the sword in Lynn's hand, which seemed to be ready to strike him down at any moment, just as Lynn's words had described.
When he heard that salt would be sprinkled on the executioner's blade, Nul couldn't help but shudder. He knew all too w...

Lynn, who had just entered, was also startled by Nul's appearance, but he quickly realized he had overreacted. Nul's condition looked terrible, with his height exceeding two meters, a swollen right shoulder, and his chest heaving violently. Drool continuously dripped from his mouth, making him look like a grotesque monster.

Nour, the apprentice, adjusted the robe on his body, his dark face smeared with a bit of mud for disguise.
Unable to use transformation magic, he had to rely on such means to avoid being recognized. However, this crude disguise didn't seem to be very effective. Since he entered the southern district, Nour keenly felt tha...

Loude led Lynn to a somewhat dilapidated mansion in the southern district.
The house had clearly been abandoned for a long time, with ivy creeping up its outer walls, and the courtyard overrun with weeds. A few dead trees stood alone, rustling in the wind.
Inside, however, it was bustling with activity. About a hundred people crowded into the small front ha...

Leya looked at Lynn with a somewhat strange expression. He was highly skeptical that Lynn had been a law enforcer before coming to the land of the wizards, as he seemed even more skilled at investigating leads than Leya himself.

Just as Lynn was silently complaining in his heart, a voice sounded behind him.
