Jeff, Mason, and Martin who had almost freaked out when Ethan charged at the Giant Humanoid Mantis later cast complicated gazes at him, undoubtedly dumbfounded. They watched the head of the giant mantis fall to the red mud, green foamy blood rushing out of its neck, their eyes widening to the very limit. "E... Ethan, how come... How come you dared to decapitate the beast by yourself?" Mason stared at Ethan and asked, his eyes emitting glows of curiousness. "What do you mean? Is anything bad with me killing the beast?" Ethan furrowed his brows and stole glances at the three of them, pretending as if he didn't really understand Mason's point there. They had known Ethan since he arrived at the Aetherum Arcanum Academy. Even if he saw a dead beast, he would hesitate severally before daring to go close. They also noticed how nervous he was when the beast first appeared, and now he had the guts to kill the beast?It was quite complicated. "I noticed it was really exhausted, so I decide
After hearing what the system said, Ethan could only let out a small, raging statement. 'Shut up, system!'They were just attacked by a Giant Humanoid Mantis from nowhere and were extremely left in shock. Now, the system said he should kill and extract the Valuables?Ethan's face almost reddened.At least, he expected the system to bring out a safe technique or idea of escape, but it was proudly urging him to kill the Spirit Beast.'A mere Adept-level Arcanists like me??? Impossible!'If anyone were to be in his shoes, almost all would see this as insanity. Which system would want its host to endanger himself when it knew that its host is a weak figure who hasn't even learned typical martial arts, much less magic?But...The Sidekick Assistant System wasn't wholely a fool. It knew what it was doing, which Ethan didn't actually understand at first. [You four can unite to kill the Giant Humanoid Mantis, and after it dies, you can go ahead and extract the Valuables].'Ohh... I get it.'
Spirit Beasts are ranked Inferior Leveled, Superior Leveled, and Brutal Leveled. This brought a system of separation for the mysterious creatures, dividing the weakest from the strongest. The strongest Spirit Beasts were able to kill and devour weaker beasts, and this was why weak beasts like the Giant Monkey Beast resided around the entrance area of the Woodlands. If they go much further into the Woodlands, they will get devoured by stronger Spirit Beasts. The corpse of the Giant Monkey Beast showed a clear explanation of the merciless devouring of a stronger Spirit Beast. It was torn by the razor-sharp claws of a seemingly Superior Leveled Beast. As Brutal Leveled Beasts wouldn't even live anywhere around a hundred kilometers from the entrance of the Woodlands, one wouldn't suspect any attack from them around. They were extremely terrific, only Enchanter-level Arcanists or above could dare to intrude on their territory, and even if they did, they must be prepared as if they were
At first, Ethan felt a ringing sound in his head, his brows furrowing in confusion.'Extract what?' This was the second question he asked after the Sidekick Assistant System sounded in his head. Ethan slowly switched his gaze below and attempted to take a look at the hard substance he had just stepped on. Just as his gaze landed on the substance, he shrugged. 'Is this the remains of the Giant Monkey Beast?' He was pointlessly asking himself this question inwardly when the system voiced again in his head. [Yes, host. There are bones, almost rotten flesh, and meats in it. Extract the Valuables to gain more Mana Points].Hearing this, Ethan could not help but broaden his eyes. He wasn't only shocked by how one could extract Valuables from the bones and meats of a dead beast, the fact that he could gain Mana Points made him stunned. The Giant Monkey Beast was a very large beast that seemed to be exactly the size of an old gorilla. Although most parts of its body were already rotten,
Martin's face had a sad picture as he stared down to the ground, deeply ashamed. He couldn't even dare to raise his head to look at his fellow offenders... His acts were giving something far from boldness. "Hey! Keep working," one of the disciplinary officers shouted after noticing that Ethan's pace had lessened. Ethan was lost in looking at Martin's sorry ass and how he acted. Martin was someone with low self-esteem and wasn't bold, and this did much to make him a silent, bullying figure. Even by looking at his face, one could notice slight bruises due to assaults from stronger students. A part of Ethan was deeply sorry for him, but...'I hate him because I'm going to suffer his miseries in double fold.'Ethan mused inwardly and hastened his steps forward. Martin was later taken to join them as they progressed to the principal office. When they got to Principal Bernard's office building, he came out from his inner chamber and met them in the office compound space.As usual, his f
Ethan and Mason ran out of the second floor and out of the library building. Although they knew that they were in trouble, they just didn't want to be caught red-handed by the principal. At least, maybe they could spend some time preparing for their greatest nightmare in their dorm room before being summoned.Mason had this urge to cry. He had just returned from the Woodlands a few hours ago, and now he just got himself into trouble again."I can't believe I would be going to the Woodlands again," Mason said, his face painted with a dismal hue. For a moment, Ethan was silent while staring down at the concrete floors. He was lost in thoughts, imagining what version of "hell" the Woodlands would be. Many who had journeyed into the Woodlands have had different yet complicated experiences. Generally, it was known that only strong and smart individuals could enjoy the good side of the Woodlands. For people like Ethan who couldn't even learn simple martial arts for self-defense, his succ
There were four lengthy ranges of tall shelves lined in the vast room, the books shrouding every space. Out of these four, Ethan hid behind one, the second one. There was a lengthy space that looked like an aisle by every shelf's compartment. But out of all, Ethan's hiding spot came to be the widest aisle. What's worse? Ethan sighted a door from the near distance... He was taken aback. He just heard the librarian speaking to the principal about the third floor. Glancing around, Ethan didn't seem to notice any other entrance unit in any part of the room, making it clear that this was the path they would take upon going to the third floor. The entrance was just a tiny distance away from his hiding spot. *Thud. Thud. Thud.* Soon, Ethan heard bold footsteps approaching his direction, well, he didn't hesitate before finding a way to get himself outta there. If he got caught by any chance, he would be fiercely punished. Ethan made a promise to himself... "No matter what happens, I
"I told you, Ethan! This plant is so precious!" Mason was so delighted that he forgot that he was in a library. Of course, all libraries have got one typical rule: every visitor must be quiet at all costs."Do you forget that you are in a library?" After staring at Mason for a while, Ethan asked with furrowed brows.Hearing what Ethan just said, it was as if his reminder was a mouth-shutting spell. Mason froze, as well as his mouth being shut."Ah shit, I was just too excited," Mason said. "So, how huge is the strength we are talking about?" Ethan asked as he tried to study what was on the page.Mason hesitated a bit. "I don't really know... I can just read further since everything about the elixir is written here."Ethan nodded. "I'll just hang around then."They both agreed and Ethan left that spot. He walked around the first floor library, looking for books associated with The Changed but found no one.There were over a thousand books as said by the librarian on the first floor,
After the apocalypse, not only The Changed were the threat that humanity had. There was a sudden existence of spiritual beasts. Although this wasn't the main threat that humanity had, they could only be seen in deserted, lonesome areas. This was why anyone who was sent into the Woodlands was given a vital weapon to ensure safety. Actually, that was why Mason was dressed in thick armor and was with a longsword.But..."Why does he stink so badly," Jeff complained, covering his nose."He smells like rotten fish," Ethan couldn't help but comment, disgusted."No, it smells more like the corpse of a Changed," Jeff corrected Ethan who suddenly glared at him upon hearing his statement."Huh? Have you got to see one before?" Ethan asked, extremely curious. "Not really... Just a dead one slain by my father. A Spark-tier Changed to be precise."Ethan found it hard to believe. Although he nodded positively, he was still curious, so he asked."Your father, what's his rank?" At first, Jeff was

wonderful, so when would update start ... I love all your works

It's about the story of a young man who died and transmigrated to the novel he had been reading. He refused to be the MC due to what he would face in the future, however, choosing to be a side character turned out not to be the best decision either.
