One's dignity may be mocked and cruelly battered, but it would still be intact if they refuse to surrender. These have always been the comforting words Jinwoo uses whenever he was bullied. Jinwoo has always been bullied by his peers, it started in kindergarten and it never stopped even after he became an Adult. Though he was constantly being bullied, he kept living believing that one day things would change and whoever that is the master or god responsible for the world would bring him justice."What took you so long?" Madam Balaam screamed at Jinwoo."Sorry, the traffic was bad." Jinwoo has always been the one to apologize for everything."I don't need your sorry excuse, there is an order you have to deliver to this address." She gave the food to Jinwoo and he left immediately. Madam Balaam would not admit it but Jinwoo is the only work that has stayed with her the longest and put up with her shitty attitude. Jinwoo went outside and breathed a sigh of exhaustion before boarding his b
Everyone in the part was now interested in Jinwoo and suggesting new ways to make him entertain them. The majority of them were his bullies when he was in high school. After high school, he thought he has heard the last of them and that if he eventually see them again in the future, he would be the one on top. "Come on Jinwoo, entertain us like you used to." Jung said in a bored tone."I am not Jinwoo." Jinwoo figured if he kept saying it, they would believe him and maybe let him go."You are still denying your name?" Hyun shook his head as if he had any pity for Jinwoo."You are such a bore, my pride is still hurt that you turned me down." The girl that opened the door pouted. Jinwoo hated her the most at this moment, if she didn't delay his payment all these wouldn't have happened."He turned you down?" Ji-Hoon gasped and the girl nodded."Jinwoo, how dare you hurt my girl's pride?" Jinwoo was surprised at the question. A normal human would be angry that his lover threw herself on
Brienne carried her only son back home with tears streaming down her cheek. She knew what she did to be able to conceive and gave birth to Alaric. She took Alaric to the family doctor the moment she entered the family castle."Lady Brienne, what is wrong?" The doctor asked as he saw the beautiful lady carrying her five years old son."It's Aleric, he ate a poison mushroom." She handed Aleric over to the doctor. The doctor knew this was a piece of bad news since Aleric was already a weak boy with no mana in his system. Taking a poison mushroom is certain death."Stay outside." The doctor led Lady Brienne outside and asked his nurse to bring him a healing potion. He just prays they still have time for the potion to work. The healing potion would work if it hasn't been more than 30 minutes since Aleric ate the mushroom."Here is it." The nurse handed it over to the doctor and he pour it inside Alaric and pray they are not too late. He came outside to speak with Lady Brienne and ask her h
"Where is father?" Aleric asked his mother while they were having dinner. Aleric always has breakfast with his mother since his father is always gone by the time he wakes up, and he mostly has his lunch alone. When comes to dinner, the whole family always has it together. So, the absence of his father was something new to him."There was an attack in the village so he went to fend them off." Lady Brienne spoke nonchalantly."Who?""Orcs, they are attacking more frequently." Enzo Xalvador is the lord of Warkinles, a small state in the human kingdom. Enzo is in charge of the villages in Warkinles, and it's his duty to defend and protect them from harm. A small village in the outskirt was attacked and he rode out with his knights to defend them."Are you not worried about his safety?" As a woman her husband left to fight against the orcs, Aleric was expecting her to be worried. Lady Brienne giggled at her son's question."Worried? Son, your father is one of the 8th-class warriors. Anyth
Aleric kept searching for the old man and sometimes he would see him and sometimes he would not, but he didn't stop. The old man thought Aleric would stop after a few days but he was wrong. Aleric kept tracking him down and the old man has no other but to test Aleric. "Have I convinced you of my resolve?" Aleric asked the old man as they stood face to face in the same place they first had a discussion. "Not yet, first I should tell you I can't teach you anything about mana." "That won't be a problem." "Alright, here." The old man threw a bracelet at him. "What is this?" "Wear it, it would make you unable to use mana and harder to sense mana." "What is the purpose of it?" Aleric has just recently succeeded in sensing mana so he didn't like the idea of it being stripped away. "By holding back your mana, you would be able to develop your muscles and stamina without the use of mana. When you now start using mana after you have developed your stamina you would be so much stron
Aleric and Tatia kept going outside and Aleric would always leave her whenever they go out. Aleric no longer saw the bracelet he bought for her and when he asked about it, she said she lost it. He got her another one and she lost it again and it made Aleric angry for he felt that Tatia was losing it because he wasn't an important person to her. He decided not to think about it and was glad that Tatia didn't tell his mother about the way he was always leaving her.Months passed and Aleric started learning about combat style and he was progressing. He also felt his first mana while wearing the bracelet but it was just for a moment. "That's it for today." Sawyer stopped the day's training early because he knew that the boy need some breather."Alright." Aleric could go some more hours but he knew better not to question his master.He left and wandered around since it was not yet time to meet up with Tatia. As he was wandering around he got a glimpse of Tatia sitting alone beside a tree.
Aleric noticed the striking resemblance between the woman and Morgana, he figured the woman to be Morgana's mother. "What madness are you suggesting?" Enzo spoke in a calm frightening voice."Enzo my friend, we all want what is best for our children. I know you would make the same decision if you were in my shoes." Lord Brom said. He is the father of Morgana, and he is also a powerful ice mage. Morgana was betrothed to Aleric after she was born and then it felt like a good plan to make the Brom family more powerful. Lord Brom knew how strong the Xalvador family is, so he wanted to share in that power by creating a bond with them through marriage. But after it was discovered that Aleric has no talent, they started regretting their decision. They all knew that having no talent makes one worse than a slave, so they knew that having their child marry Aleric would lead to her ultimate demise. While they were thinking of how to break off the engagement, Morgana awoke very rare ice magic. T
"Come on boy, is that all you have?" Sawyer kept pushing Aleric to do more. They are currently sparing and Aleric has decided to become a magic warrior, the hardest all occupation. A magic warrior is an occupation of being a magician and also a warrior. It's the hardest o train, it's hard to be either of the two, so it's much harder to be both. Aleric discovered that life is like a story and for him to be the protagonist, he has to take the hardest road. "Your right is unguarded." Sawyer said as he strikes Aleric's right with his wooden sword "No, it's not." Aleric used earth magic to protect his back. Once again Sawyer was surprised at how Aleric can perform chantless magic and perform magic without waving his hand. It was possible for Aleric to do because his heart is his mana core so it means every part of him can be used to perform magic, he doesn't need to use his hands like other magicians. "You are truly fast on your feet?" Aleric said stepping on the ground. This simple mo
It's been three months since the battle and everyone is slowly healing. They have mourned their lost ones, are are currently building up. Though they are now safe, they can't celebrate their victory since the hero of the war is still in coma. After he fell, the heavenly stone left his body and returned to it's sacred ground. Though Aleric wasn't dead, his body was too messed up to wake up. Tatia has to lay him in the healing pool and hope he survives. Draco woke up two days later and revealed the reason his heart stopped beating was because Aleric is his companion, so Any grievous injury sustained by Aleric would affect him.While everyone back at Jusavia is worried about Aleric, he is currently in the underworld with Anui."You will soon be going back." Anui said as the two sat opposite each other."Yes, my body is almost done healing.""Now you have become a transcendental being, adversaries would come to find you from across the universe. Some would come for a friendly match, other
Though they are far away from the battlefield, they could feel the tremors. Arya, Mia and Draco were all trying their best to get to Aleric. Another person there with them is Eren, he is not meant for a battlefield. He rather witness the return of Aleric than the destruction of the battlefield.While they are trying so hard to get to him, Aleric has reached a greater height. Just like in the demon continent when he wanted to trace the corrupted mana and mistakenly reached transcend, he has done the same in the Asuras realm. Aleric has become a transcend, but this time he won't loose it. His willpower, everything has increased and he is certain that he is now evenly matched with the lord of destruction. Since he was locked, he has been mediating instead of losing hope, for he is certain Arya would find him. "I know you would." Aleric smiled as the portal started to open. The asuras that was left to watch over him were surprised. Aleric stood up and easily broke out of his prison, the
A week later while everyone was still at shock at Aleric's sudden disappearance, a loud trumpet was heard. It was heard across the universe and they all knew it was the arrival of the long awaited enemy. Even with all their preparation, they knew it would be a failure without Aleric. All the world leaders conveyed at Utopia to discuss before the enemies would arrive."Can we negotiate with him?" The elf king asked."There would be no negotiation." Jones answered."What they want is destruction, so we either win against them or be annihilated." Dax replied."But there would be no victory without Aleric." Xander stated and they all started arguing. Tatia watched them argue, he looked at Aleric's father Enzo and the man starred at her with pity. Enzo, who was once considered the strongest is now lost for words. Him as well as many others have gotten stronger but without Aleric they are nothing."You are right." Tatia started to speak and they all went quiet. Maybe it was because of th
"He disappeared." Tatia muttered. They were still rejoicing about Aleric's victory when he suddenly vanished. Even the device was not able to follow Aleric to wherever he must have gone to."Draco, do you feel him?" Arya immediately asked and the dragon tried but something seemed to be blocking him. They only thing capable of doing so is someone more powerful. "I can't." With Draco's negative words, they were thrown to panic. It was a huge success that all the dungeons has been cleared, but it won't be a success if it's coming at the expense of the greatest hero. It didn't take long for the news to sprayed across Jusavia, and everyone in the word prayed for the heroes wellbeing.Back in the Asuras planet, Aleric is demanding to have a match with the lord of destruction. Aleric doesn't even know if being teleported here was by the making of the dungeon boss or it was the dungeon design. But regardless of what happened, he would be able to show his might by winning against the lord of
Aleric and the rest of the world worked hand in hand and cleared all the dungeon. Aleric is aware this would make the asuras hastens their invasion, but he doesn't mind. With all the preparation done, Aleric knew it's better they invade soon. With only one dungeon left, Aleric decided to clear it and be done with it. He hopes to go back to his wives before the enemies invade."One last ride." He muttered as he entered the dungeon.Aleric get past each floor without meeting a single enemy. The only possible explanation for this phenomenon is that the boss of this dungeon is an entity that is on a while new level. He went by the whole floor until he came to the last floor. He tried to widened his sense but he couldn't feel anything beyond the door. The only thing left to do is to open the door.As he entered the colossal chamber, Aleric's eyes widened at the sight of an otherworldly being, its form obscured in the shadows. The ancient entity stirred, awoken from eons of slumber, its pow
It's been a month after his wedding. Aleric has told his wives about earth and everything that happened. Luckily Bora and Mia didn't lose their powers anymore and it gave Aleric answer to his question. Unlike earth that doesn't support magic, Jusavia does. So, clearing all the dungeon would not make Jusavia lose it's magical powers. So, after discovering that, Aleric spread the word all over Jusavia that everyone should put their strength in clearing the dungeon. Since every preparation for the war has been made, it's best to concentrate on clearing the dungeons."Would you want us to come with you?" Tatia asked."No, it's best you all stay here and keep training the soldiers." Aleric responded. He is all prepared to go. Leaving his wives back at the kingdom not only keep his mind at peace, it will also make him go all out in the dungeon. Aleric has gotten incredibly stronger, though he is still at 9th class, he is way above. His journey to earth gave him powers of awakener, so when h
Just as the portal was about to close, Aleric ran through with the ladies in his arms. The journey was tedious, so even though Aleric was shielding the two ladies with his mana, they still passed out."Aleric." Tatia said as they all rushed to embrace him. They couldn't contained the joy for seeing their husband after more than one year. Only after the excitement have settled did they notice the two beautiful ladies in his arms."Who are they?" Bella asked. The rest of of the ladies all looked at Aleric with keen interest."They are..." He chuckled nervously. Only in this moment are they reminded of the boy in him. The hero all evil flee from can get nervous just facing the hot gaze from his wives."The two ladies needs to rest." Tatia spoke. She already knows who the ladies are and she is aware others already guessed too. No need to leave the girls dangling in Aleric's arms. "Let's bring them inside." With Tatia's order, Draco took the ladies from Aleric and gave him a pity stare be
In Jusavia, where magic flowed like the rivers and mythical creatures roamed freely, a sense of unease had settled upon the land. It had been more than a year since King Aleric had disappeared without a trace, leaving his kingdom and the world in a state of uncertainty.In the heart of the grand palace, the six wives of Aleric - Tatia, Bella, Morgana, Hanna, Julia, and Arya - and his fiance Ema gathered in the council chamber. Their bond was one of shared love for the same man, but it had also evolved into a sisterhood forged by their shared responsibilities and challenges.The ladies sat in a circle, their faces filled with concern. The kingdom of Jusavia was vast and magnificent, but it was Aleric's presence that had kept it thriving and harmonious. His sudden disappearance had left a void that none could fill."I miss him," Tatia said softly, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears. "I miss his laughter, his warmth, and his guidance." She has always been the one serving as their pill
After a grueling battle that had shaken the very foundations of the earth, Aleric found himself awakening in the sterile surroundings of a hospital room. The past week had been a blur of conflict, of dragons that threatened to destroy everything, but now he lay in a state of blissful unconsciousness.As his eyes fluttered open, Aleric was greeted by the sight of two familiar faces. Bora and Mia, two women who had become more than just allies; they were now lovers. Their smiles were a testament to the relief they felt at his awakening. They had been by his side all this time, their unwavering support a source of strength for Aleric.Weak and weary, Aleric managed a feeble smile in return. It was a profound comfort to know that he was not alone."Don't ever scare us like that." Bora complained.Aleric's heart swelled with gratitude, and he whispered, "I will try not to."Their laughter filled the room, and Bora leaned in to give him a warm embrace. "You did it, Aleric. You saved the Ear
