2024-10-29 19:42:56Franz finally made it to the top 32.
In this round, the Bonaparte family youths would face off in direct elimination matches. After a day of fighting, the final eight strongest contestants were Franz, Leona, Geoffrey, Desmond, and four others. The competition was set to continue the next day.
That night, Leona forced him to honestly recount everything that had happened over the past three years. Relying on his old memories, Franz exaggerated certain parts, especially how he had been bullied, which made Leona furious. She was so angry that she wanted to immediately find those who had tormented Franz and teach them a lesson.
“Young master, the family head has summoned you to the study,” Emon suddenly announced as he entered the room. Speaking of Emon, when he saw Franz return, he had clung to his legs, crying his eyes out and swearing never to let go. This made several of the young ladies look at the two of them with strange expressions. Franz felt exa

The highest-grade magic core here was a Level 6 magic core. Franz guessed that the second and third floors would have even higher-grade magic cores.With this in mind, Franz quickly exchanged the Level 6 magic core for currency through the system.“Ding, confirm the exchange of Level 6 magic core for 25,000 silver.”“Confirm”The next morning, all the clan’s disciples gathered once again at the clan’s training ground to watch the top 8 compete. Today, Leona would face Cesc—a blue-haired young man who was a swordsman by profession and had the cultivation level of a late-stage Battle Master. Franz wasn’t worried about Leona; mages were generally rated much higher than swordsmen, and Leona’s cultivation level far exceeded that of her opponent. Geoffey’s opponent was a young earth mage with a cultivation level of a mid-stage High Mage. The outcome of this match was also predictable due

"Good!"On the platform, Duss was so excited that he stood up. The Great Elder’s face darkened as he snorted coldly. “That guy used external tools in the match, which should be considered cheating.” The Second Elder cleared his throat and said, “Franz’s explosive paper can be considered a type of weapon, and there’s no rule against using weapons in battle. Moreover, Desmond had enchanted weapons but still didn’t know how to suppress his opponent. Therefore, Franz’s victory is well-deserved.” “The Second Elder is right. In my opinion, Desmond is just brute strength with no strategy, and his progress has been slow over the past few years. I think we should reconsider the family’s investment in him,” Duss added. The Great Elder’s face turned pale. If the family cut off Desmond’s training resources, his future would be practically over. “First match, Franz wins.”“Ding, main quest completed: defeat Desmond.

Rise of Franz Chapter 11: The Fateful Battle: Franz vs. Geoffey
More than 15 minutes had passed, and there was still no progress in the arena. Both fighters were extremely cautious. However, the situation was becoming unfavorable for Sothe, as he couldn’t stay in stealth mode for much longer. Finally, unable to maintain his stealth, Sothe reappeared behind Grey and delivered a palm strike to Grey's heavy armor in an attempt to knock him down. However, Grey reacted quickly, dropping his large shield and using his spear to push himself forward. Sothe didn’t miss the opportunity and rushed forward, thrusting his dagger toward Grey's throat. Unexpectedly, instead of retreating, Grey advanced, ramming his heavy armor into Sothe’s chest. Seeing no way to avoid it, Sothe quickly rotated the hilt of his dagger and struck Grey’s chest with his palm instead.*Boom*, *crack*.Both fighters were blown backward and couldn't get up. Sothe had several broken ribs, and his arm was fractured from the impact with Grey's heavy armor. Grey, having taken two of Sothe'

"The successful transaction of the Three Suns and Moons Dance has been completed." "Ding, Host, do you confirm that you want to learn the Three Suns and Moons Dance?" "Ding, Host has learned the Three Suns and Moons Dance."A series of notifications from the system rang out. Franz had spent 2000 silver coins to buy the Three Suns and Moons Dance body technique.Three Suns and Moons Dance: This is Hayate's sword technique, focusing on speed to the point of creating afterimages.Franz grinned, baring his fangs."Cousin, be careful."He spoke, then charged at Geoffey with incredible speed, slashing toward him. The sword’s shadow split into three directions, aiming for Geoffey’s chest. Geoffey remained calm, spinning his spear and shouting:"Break for me!"Boom!From the tip of the spear, a burst of energy erupted, dispersing the sword shadows and pushing Franz back. Geoffey spun twice in the air, creating a beautiful arc, and slammed his spear down toward Franz's head.Clang!Franz kn

Waking up, Franz realized he was in his room. Over at the tea table, Emon was slumped over, fast asleep, with drool dripping onto the table.*Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the job transfer quest and earning the title of Chūnin. Rewards: 30,000 EXP, 20,000 coins, the skill Lightning Shock (Nagashi), 10 bottles of mid-level healing potions, 10 bottles of mid-level chakra recovery potions, and 10 bottles of mid-level stamina recovery potions.**Ding! Congratulations to the host for reaching level 32, with an additional reward of 1,300 coins.*The continuous system notifications made Franz beam with joy. Level 32 meant his strength had significantly increased, now on par with a late-stage battle master.

Rise of Franz Chapter 14 System Overhaul: The New Era Begins
*Ding! System upgrade complete.*After a day had passed, Franz finally heard the sound he had been waiting for. He quickly logged into the system."Welcome, host, to the Ninja System."The system’s voice now sounded like a friendly, human female, rather than the cold, mechanical tone from before. Looking around, Franz noticed that while the system’s appearance hadn’t changed much, the bloodline pillar was now glowing, and there was a small roulette-style wheel beside it.Unable to contain his curiosity, Franz entered the bloodline shop. Inside, there were various bloodlines such as the Sage Toad, First Hokage, Madara… but all of them were gray. Glancing at the price list, Franz gasped. The cheapest items were 150,000 coins, with the bloodlines of the First Hokage and Madara reaching up to 1 million coins. Goodness. When will he be able to afford these?"System, why are all the bloodlines so expensive?"
Rise of Franz Chapter 15: The Value of Power
It seems that this system upgrade has made it more suited to this world, no longer just a game like before. Franz felt both excited and worried. It looked like he would need to buy a few more things to ensure his safety.However, when Franz looked at the system, his eyes widened. Since when had the Mangekyō Sharingan reached 80,000 silver coins? The Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan had also risen to 700,000 silver. Even the other jutsus had increased in price. Now, with only 2,000 silver coins, he could barely afford E and D-rank jutsus.Exiting the system, Franz felt incredibly frustrated. The system was such a greedy merchant! Seeing how easily he made money, it raised the prices—just like in his past life. Every time gas prices went up, so did everything else, but salaries never did. Suddenly, Emon entered and said, “Young master, the patriarch and the elders are waiting for you in the main hall.”When Franz entered the hall, he saw Duss along with the council of elders.

"Little brother, are you really not going to the Royal Academy with me? With your talent, you'll definitely be accepted," Leona said in a pitiful tone to Franz. The family's examination had ended, and she had to return to the academy to continue her studies. Leona had wanted to drag Franz along, but the boy refused to go no matter what, which made her furious."Come on, little brother, go with me. There are so many beautiful girls at the academy. Plus, I have a great reputation there and can introduce you to a few... no, maybe even a few dozen!"Leona resorted to using beautiful girls to lure him. Franz could only smile wryly. It wasn't that he didn’t want to go—who wouldn’t like beautiful girls? But at the Royal Academy, he couldn't increase his strength. He grew stronger by killing monsters and leveling up, and while the academy had plenty of beautiful girls, there weren't any magical beasts to hunt."My friend, if you're not interested in th

A wave of pressure from him shot toward Darius and his brother, causing them to step back in discomfort."Everyone, let’s maintain harmony. We can always negotiate," Garen said, stepping forward. Instantly, the oppressive aura of the deputy captain dissipated. Garen smiled warmly and continued, "Everyone here is a noble descendant of the court, and you should not offend us easily. How about we all take a step back and treat this as if nothing happened?"The reason Garen didn’t want to escalate the situation was because the enemy outnumbered them. Although he could defeat the deputy captain, he feared that while he was occupied, Elissa and the others might be in danger. The deputy captain hesitated for a moment as well; offending noble descendants in the capital was no small matter. At that moment, Darius spoke up."Get out of here, or I’ll call my father to bring an army and kill you all."Garen and Franz immediately sensed the danger. Sure enough, the deputy captain showed signs of h

Chapter 65: The Law of the Jungle
After three days, Franz had gained a basic understanding of this group. Janna was a priest in the sub-chapter of the Holy Church, calm and kind-hearted. Elissa appeared to be the daughter of some noble, with a childish, mischievous, and endearing personality. Garen was not Elissa’s subordinate but another noble; his aura radiated an unmistakable air of nobility. Darius and the other knight, Garpat, were brothers and nobles as well, but they were arrogant and looked down on Franz. The cold-faced swordsman was mysterious and known only by the name Shadow.During these three days, Franz worked hard to recover his chakra. Although he had used high-grade recovery potions, he still couldn’t return to his peak state. However, this was sufficient for now. He also received troubling news: Gamabunta was severely injured and couldn’t be summoned for the next three months. Over the three days, the group managed to hunt quite a few magical beasts, primarily level 4 and level 5. Because Elissa’s te

Hearing the young girl, Elissa quickly said,"Yes, yes, Miss Janna, hurry and save him, or he’ll die!"Janna teased with a smile,"Look at you, all flustered. Are you perhaps starting to care about him?"Elissa pouted and shook her head, complaining,"You're so annoying, always teasing me. Who’s paying attention to him?"Janna chuckled and walked closer to Franz. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she recited a spell."Holy Light Restoration Spell."A beam of holy light emanated from Janna’s hands and enveloped Franz, healing his wounds. In no time, his injuries cooled down, and his meridians stabilized. Amazingly, chakra had returned to him, even if just a little. Franz was overjoyed—this small amount of chakra was enough for him to open his Shinobi pouch."Thank you,"Franz said softly, as he was not the kind of person who wouldn't appreciate help. Janna had helped him recover some chakra, and that was already very helpful."Hey, you should thank me too!"Out of nowhere, Elissa poppe

Franz opened his eyes to a clear sky. The air felt fresh and pleasant.“It seems to be morning. Where am I?”As his consciousness returned, Franz sat up. His body felt weak, his limbs trembling. He was shocked to find that there wasn’t a trace of chakra in his body. Reaching for his Shinobi pouch to retrieve some healing medicine, he realized he couldn’t open it. Franz let out a bitter laugh. It seemed that using the Shinobi pouch required chakra.He surveyed his surroundings. It appeared to be a mountain range, densely packed with trees. Franz let out a sigh of relief. It was fortunate that no magical beast had wandered by while he was unconscious; otherwise, he might have died without even knowing why.“Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a Battle Emperor. Reward granted…”“Ding! Congratulations to the host for leveling up to Level 57…”Franz sighed in amazement. He hadn’t expected that killing a single Battle Emperor would yield more experience than killing ten Battle Kin

Here’s the revised version of your text with polished grammar and phrasing for clarity and flow:Franz was dumbfounded. "Change his heart?" Did that mean he had to use his charm and seduce Mazunky? Surely Mazunky wasn’t that perverted. No way. Franz would rather die than lose his dignity. If Mazunky ever heard these thoughts, would he immediately break the seal and tear Franz to shreds?“Alright. I’ve said everything that needs to be said. It’s time for me to leave,” Phara said with a trace of sorrow.Franz eyed the old man suspiciously, considering a terrifying possibility. "Leave?"“Yes,” Phara nodded. “I’ll use the last of my remaining energy to restore the spiritual essence of the continent to its peak. At the very least, I’ll be able to create a group of divine-level masters to buy you more time.”Phara’s body began to glow and gradually disintegrate, much like his master’s had. As if suddenly remembering something, he added:“When you leave here, find the Holy Church and tell th

Chapter 61: Phara's Secret
“Young man, have you understood?”Suddenly, everything vanished, leaving behind a vast expanse of white space. In front of Franz, an old man sat cross-legged. His hair was long and white as platinum, his eyebrows as lengthy as those of the mythical Tai Shang Laojun. The skin on his face was slightly wrinkled, and his thin frame was draped in a white magical robe, blending seamlessly into the surrounding void.“Understand what? Where is this place? And who are you?”Franz asked a series of questions, his confusion evident. The old man smiled faintly and replied,“This is my domain. What you just saw was the history of the Violet Blue Star. As for me…”The old man paused briefly before continuing.“I am the young Phara you just witnessed.”Franz was astonished and blurted out,“Then you’re a god?”The old man chuckled softly.“I am indeed a god. Moreover, I am the one who brought you to this world.”It was as if lightning had struck him. Franz froze, his face first showing shock, then a

"Master..."All three of them couldn't hold back their tears. Even Mazunky shouted aloud, tears streaming down his face. The elderly man smiled contentedly at the three of them before his body suddenly began to glow and disintegrate into tiny particles, floating out of the castle and falling into the ocean below. From that point, chunks of the continents began to rise, and the tiny particles continued to settle onto the ground. A few explosive sounds followed as cracks appeared in the land, and streams of water erupted from the earth, forming rivers. Across the continents, green sprouts slowly began to grow, rapidly turning into towering trees. The remaining glowing particles spread out, beginning to form all kinds of life: first humans, then beastmen, elves, magical beasts... Hundreds of races appeared quickly, all with bewildered and confused expressions.The space changed again. The continents were now teeming with life, and various races swiftly built their own cit

“Dead again. I’ve only been alive for two years, and I just lost my virginity. Why is fate so cruel to me?”Franz was extremely distressed. As he was pulled into the space, he felt as though his body was being torn apart. After regaining consciousness, he found himself in a blank white space.“I wonder where I’ll reincarnate this time. I wonder if I’ll need to drink the Mạnh bà soup when I reach the afterlife.”Franz mumbled to himself, lost in thought. He was certain he had died and was just waiting to be reincarnated.“Is it time already?”Suddenly, the surrounding space changed. Franz found himself floating in the air like a fragment of a spirit. Below him was an endless expanse of blue ocean. He tried to move, but to his frustration, he couldn’t even budge an inch, no matter how hard he tried.“Well, of course, I’m just a fragment of a soul,” Franz mutte

"Are you saying, Franz… Franz is dead?"Leona grasped Prince Second's hand in a panic, speaking urgently. Beside her, Elena’s eyes were welling up with tears, barely holding back her sorrow. When the two of them woke up, they found themselves at the Royal Academy. They were reassured only when the vice dean returned after leading a rescue mission and mentioned that Franz had died. This was something Leona couldn’t accept. Pecival spoke, his voice heavy with grief.“I’m sorry, we were late. By the time we arrived, Franz had already been sucked into a spatial magic void, into a black hole.”The two women looked at the vice dean in disbelief, seeking confirmation, but he only sighed and shook his head. Elena’s tears finally flowed freely. Franz was her love; wasn’t he supposed to promise to be with her forever? Why did this have to happen? Her heart ached with each beat, and her vision blurred with pain.“Don’t cry.”A shout broke Elena out of her pain. Leona glared, with bloodshot eyes
