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
