Andre and Lent, unlike Fabian, looked at William as if he were a chemical weapon. They knew that William was the best of the seven mages, they had heard of the chaos he caused when he became an official mage, and they wanted a piece of this genius' cake. Maybe they could discover a new ruin thanks to him and win a big reward.

When Andre, one of the duo, thought that the look between Fabian and the duo was getting longer and longer, he could not stand it anymore and coughed. They felt that these stares had reached a dead end, and William even began to suffer.

Andre, dressed in baggy clothes, lifted his wide sleeves and coughed heavily.

This cough brought William to his senses, and he took the opportunity to look at Andre and Lent.

'It felt like I had just been trapped in eternity!' William thought as he examined the other two team captains he was seeing for the first time.

Andre's baggy clothes were decorated with various cloud patterns. His short, blue-tinted hair and the small blue e

    Two mages came into William's line of sight, both in second rank. Both of them were holding long, thick wands. In the middle of these wands was a blue stone. Although its color was a bit lighter, closer to turquoise, William recognized it as a 'Water Stone'. Such stones were common, but not so large and light in color.The two mages came to the center of the garden and raised their wands in the air. They chanted spells at the same time, and a light emerged from the top of the staff and shot into the sky. Then there was a huge explosion in the sky and it started to rain. This rain was not normal. William took a drop and tasted it. 'The nutritional value is very high!'It was also full of mana. If you wanted to grow a magic plant, this water, this rain, was the best tonic, though not indispensable. The rain that fell in a short time created a rainbow. Even though there was sun in the sky, it continued to rain, and even the flowers in the garden, whose leaves were about to fade, immediat

    When the apprentices brought the captured Rasha to Patza, they waited at the door for more than half an hour. Patza was in deep meditation, and deep meditation was generally a state of mind that mages did not want to leave.After the door opened, Flacci personally carried Rasha in on his back, accompanied by a third-rank apprentice and two second-rank apprentices. Patza was not alone inside either. There were three of them in total, including two official mages. While the two looked like they had just reached the official mage level, Patza was at the peak. William could sense that his strength was even weaker than Malise's.'An ordinary person.' William thought. But Patza's tone was that of a classic villain.Hoarse, nasal, phlegmy words spread through the room. "Why didn't you kill him?"Flacci took an immediate step forward. "Sir, they said they already informed the White City. That's why we brought her here for you to interrogate.""Well done, you did well." Patza turned his head a

    The earth element mage nodded. Then he leaned forward a bit and began to speak."One day, Farno came to us and said that he had encountered something very strange...""Stop, stop, stop! Wait a minute, say your name first." Unable to bear it, William interrupted the mage. Since he didn't even know his name, he didn't want there to be any misunderstanding when he addressed him later. After all, some people's IQ levels - like Patza's - fluctuated. So he thought it was important for him to know his name."Gento ... my name is Gento...""Okay, Gento, go on explaining." William smiled.Gento continued his story, afraid of William's smile. "...In those days, we sold the metals we extracted from the mines in bulk to the towers. Farno was one of the few apprentices who did this job. Even though I was an apprentice with him at the time and did that job."William interrupted Gento again. "Tell me a little bit more briefly. Get to the point.""O-Okay." Gento shook his head in surprise and continu

    Patza remembered his past. He had an ordinary family in the White City. Of the three siblings, Patza was the only one with the talent to become a mage. His father was a merchant, and that's how he earned Soul Stones. He spent almost all of the soul stones he earned on Patza. Patza began to train with another apprentice to become a mage, giving all the money his father earned each month to the apprentice who was training him. He entered the magic world with a few spells and a simple meditation technique and was extremely successful. After becoming a second-rank apprentice, he left the White City and joined a caravan. He spent decades traveling to various cities and meeting points, eventually returning to the White City as an official mage.When he returned, he could not find his family in the same house or shop. His father and mother had already died of old age. His siblings were separated, and he had no relatives left in the White City. His younger sister worked as a waiter in a small

    The flower was almost three meters in diameter, and the frog took up half of the flower. This frog, which was a meter and a half wide, was slightly different from the frogs William was used to in his previous world.It had hard skin, like a lizard, but its belly was soft. Its hind legs were webbed and long, like a normal frog, while its front legs were long, jointed, with claws designed for killing and grasping things.Its eyes were protruding and horizontal, just like a normal frog's, while its mouth had an awful lot of teeth. That was why William couldn't compare this creature to a frog. It looked more like a lizard that could jump. Its size gave no indication of the power of this creature. Its real power came from its ability to cast magic. It could use its tongue like a whip, not like normal frogs. Moreover, since its front claws were very good at grasping things, it had no trouble pulling the target it was holding with its tongue. Most of the time, [Bearded Frog] would be the win

    Gento still didn't feel that it was enough, so he moved a few hundred meters away. From here, he could see William and the huge shadow over the pond.Although William was a little worried, he realized that there was no need to be afraid as soon as the creature entered his field of perception."BOOOOOOMM!" Meanwhile, the female frog landed on the pond. William ran away from where the frog had fallen at the last moment and stopped fifty meters away.He examined the newly arrived female frog. 'The magnificence of nature!' William thought.Almost every part of the frog's body and skin, except for its beard, was a copy of the male frog. Only the female frog had no beard. Therefore, its name was already [Beardless Frog]. They deliberately did not give it a name because if they had, it would have been an insult to its great beauty.Of course, the only difference between a female frog and a male frog was not the beard. The most obvious difference was their size. The smallest female frog egg w

    "I just became an official mage."'Almost the same as me...' Gento shook his head. 'People called geniuses, is that powerful?It was as if William heard the conversations in his mind. He said as he placed the empty barrels into his ring."Don't worry, most mages are not as strong as I am. I... I'm a bit special. Haha," William couldn't help but chuckle. "When you go to the White City, you will understand what I mean."Gento fell into deep thought for a moment. 'Special...special...special. He is very special. More powerful than I ever imagined. Moreover, his speed cannot be explained by magic. He used the strength of his body to kill the frog. He didn't even cast a proper spell! He just used his spell on a creature at the top of the first rank!"Gento ruffled the short hair on his head. 'Should I ask him?'He looked up and saw William, who had finished collecting the barrels and was straightening his clothes. 'I will ask!'"Master William, may I follow you?""No," William answered his

    Gento ate and William fell into deep meditation. He felt comfortable because there were no powerful creatures in this forest that could harm him, and Gento was with him.This place was the perfect environment for meditation. The wind blowing from the right hit his skin warmly, ruffling his hair slightly and cooling him down. The thirty-meter-high tree under which he sat gave him the best protection from the sun and filled him with peace. The sounds of small birds that he heard from time to time and the sounds of insects that accompanied them constantly as background music allowed him to go deeper into meditation.After a while, while Gento was eating, the fire under the cooked meat suddenly went out. It happened so suddenly that Gento stopped eating in surprise. He could feel it, as an official mage, he could feel the fire element around him running in one direction and even competing with each other to come first.Then, not only the fire element, but all the surrounding elements bega

    William didn't notice, but even his posture began to change. Now his chest was further forward and, most importantly, his nose was a little higher in the air. With his height, he began to look down on people.Worst of all, William didn't even realize it. Arrogance was slowly seeping into his blood, taking over his body without him wanting it. Since William was not aware of it for the time being, he entered the main hall of the mansion, thinking that he would show his usual behavior.He was wrong, as he thought he would only meet the City Lord. There were more than ten people in the room, and they were all sitting quietly in their seats, discussing something passionately. As soon as William and Doravoli entered the hall, the woman sitting at the front raised her hand and everyone suddenly fell silent.Then the woman stood and smiled.William recognized the woman. She was one of the three people who had helped him survive the attack of the mysterious bandit mage and complete his mission

    William was watching the bedroom of a house five hundred meters away from the roof of a two-story house. His eyes and face could not be seen in the darkness of the night. But a person standing next to him might have the impression that William was deep in thought.Strangely enough, William wasn't thinking about anything at that moment. It was as if there was a black hole in the bedroom of the house he was watching, and it was sweeping everything away, including William's gaze and thoughts.William felt lifeless right now, like a rock with no IQ.'How did this happen?' William had been on this roof for two hours and had asked himself the same question hundreds of times.Doravoli and Elasha for a few minutes, thinking they would leave after a farewell kiss, but he had listened to the lustful voices of the duo for two hours.'How did this happen?' At first, everything was normal. There was no conversation that contained any suggestive hints. These were normal everyday conversations and s

    Doravoli's Charisma 2

    Elasha thought this was the most boring day of her life. Following his sister's agreement, she was forced to come to Valimar and open new trade routes to several surrounding cities and towns. Opening these trade routes was never easy, as Valimar and the surrounding cities were surrounded by incredibly dense forests. Cutting down these trees and establishing observation points and crossing points were time-consuming tasks. And the hardest part was finding apprentice mages to work at these points.Nevertheless, she succeeded as usual because she was surrounded by hardworking people. Everyone loved her and her sister, except for a few people who didn't care much about money. If they did their job right, money would automatically fill their pockets.Meeting Enid had been a bit eventful. At first, she wanted to refuse Elura's deal, but Enid and Elura's plans gave her enough reason to be convinced.Elura had started making plans as soon as Elasha had left the White City to start the purific

    "Then we agreed. I'll get you the best flame I can find. But first I have to find it, you know they are very rare." William smiled and packed up the camp. They had spent enough time here.Just as they were about to start their journey deep into the forest after packing up the camp, William felt a vibration from his dimensional bag. He immediately took the vibrating device out of his dimensional bag.It was the seal of the Expedition Organization, and it contained a message from Fabian.[Go to Valimar. Find Enid, the City Lord. She will explain everything to you].William's face darkened. Valimar had not left him with good memories. Elura named woman had been a real nuisance to him, and while he had forgotten that story, taking on a mission like this spoiled his mood.Frankly, he wanted to relax in the White City for a few months. His journey had improved him enough, and he was ready to make another breakthrough at any moment. Of course, the most important problem on his mind was Dorav

    Happy Days

    "Have you finally woken up?" Doravoli looked at the weak William lying in the shadow of the rock. He had a sad, tearful expression on his face. He was sitting across from William, gnawing at the flesh of a small creature. It was a small lizard.He had a bandage on his cut foot.William felt more tired than ever, but when he discovered that he could move his hands with a snap of his fingers and a little bit of mana, he pulled hundreds of useful items from his ring. Most of these items were healing potions and blood crystals.He spoke with difficulty, as even the movement of his jaw was painful. "Blood crystals, put some in my mouth."Doravoli was also very tired. He even hunted down the small lizard he had gnawed, using his magic only because the lizard was too close. He waved his hand and, controlling his mana, took some of the blood crystals and brought them to William's mouth. Then he used some himself.Half an hour later, William regained some consciousness. He could move a little

    "Absolute Cut!" William shouted at the top of his voice, attacking the real body between the two copies with the strongest ability he had.The wind blade that came out of the tip of William's sword flew unblocked toward its original target, too fast for the two clones to react. The moment William's sword emerged, it struck the man's body. William knelt in weakness, but he still had one eye on the man. He wanted to see him die with his own eyes.When the ability hit the man, his body split into two, just as William expected, and the two clones vanished instantly. The sword in the hand of one of the copies fell to the ground as if it were a real object and not a spell."Hğğğğğ..." (Blood-filled guttural sound.) A growl came from the body of the man who had been cut in half.William barely raised his head and looked at the man's body in surprise.Two separate body parts were resisting falling to the ground. He was still standing. The six-centimeter gap between them was covered by an invi

    "No matter what happens, I will be with you and we will fight together." Doravoli heard everything that was said and realized that this man was after William. Even though names like 'Storm God', 'Nicolas', and 'Nak'kato' were unfamiliar to him, Doravoli would help in any way he could because he was his friend. -He knew who Nicolas was, but he didn't understand why the man in front of him cared about Nicolas.-William bowed his head. At the slightest movement of the man, he was ready to pull dozens of potions from his ring and cast his spells. He knew that this was a classic cliché and wasn't surprised that he found himself in it, but he only remained on the dark side as to why.While William was in deep thought, the man's voice filled his ears."I...You..." Suddenly the man froze. He made incomprehensible noises and his body bent slightly. William knew this was the perfect moment to attack, but he held back, for soon the man straightened his body and showed his old smile again.He rai

    "Hey Doravoli, you can't carve that wood like that!" William grabbed the flat chisel and the piece of blue ironwood out of Doravoli's hand."You never listen to what I say! Look at it again and pay attention." William began to get angry. Today was two weeks after he started teaching Doravoli blacksmithing. The two of them had almost reached the middle of the rocks. They were a little slow, but it was an acceptable pace.William held the piece of blue ironwood in his left hand and tucked it between his knees. Then he supported it firmly with his left hand and began to "float" the flat chisel on the surface of the blue ironwood with his right hand."Look, if you hold the flat chisel like this, none of the lines you make will be crooked. You have a strong body like mine, so this shouldn't be a problem for you. But you stubbornly insist on holding the flat chisel sideways, and that causes you to make little notches in the wood. Doravoli, if you want to do something of quality and worthy o

    Return Journey

    The two guarded the area for a day and had fun until the next day. The townspeople never set foot in the area because Lennard had warned them. Occasionally, a few brave official mage-level adventurers would stop by, but thanks to William's ability to throw cups, the wounds they received from hundreds of meters away, and a few minor scoldings, escaping became their priority.The next day, Fabian appeared again like a meteor over Greyscar. The way he flew was so dominant, like an unstoppable rocket. It seemed as if he could crush anything that came his way. William realized that day that Fabian's speed was even slightly faster than the strengthened Lennard.Fabian came alone. There was no one behind him, and as soon as he arrived, he looked at William briefly and then quickly examined the surroundings. He didn't speak at all, and although that made William a little uncomfortable, he didn't care. He acted the same way in the first ruin he discovered. The second time he saw Fabian, he rea
