Nordic was a bit surprised to read the notification that he got the latest sub quest. Even though he was just sitting in his dorm room bed. What should he do?

While reading the writing on the holographic light screen in front of his face, Nordic only frowned. It took him a split second to understand the meaning of all these sentences.
In the very bottom right corner of the hologram beam screen, there is an inscription:
[If you don't understand, tap the available help icon]
So Nordic pressed the [?] button on the location. Then the screen display of the hologram light faded for a few moments before reappearing with a new explanatory text.
[PROFESSOR OF MAGIC ROOM]
[This room is located on the north side of the Soul Sojourn building. All residents of the Soul Stop call this room as hidden gems because they are almost invisible. But you can find it in the middle of the wall sandwiched between two pillars]
After reading the instructions for the magic professor's room, Nordic sighed softly. Nordic still doesn't know where the room is, why was he asked to come there?
It's the first day the Nordics have come to Sojourn of the Souls. How did he find that room?
"What does it matter if I don't get the potion? It's important it seems." Nordic let out a rough breath out of annoyance.
His whole body was limp now because of the drowning incident and meeting the siren. Moreover, Nordic had a fight with one of the centaurs—and it felt like he used a lot of strength because he couldn't control himself.
Nordic wanted to ignore sub quest notifications on this hologram system. So, he immediately prepared to lay down.
A pair of Nordic eyes stared at the ceiling of his room. Why did he feel uneasy after reading the 'Penalty' description in his sub quest?
With MP or Mana Point which totaled 65 out of 100, his body already felt as if it was unable to exert any power. What if he gets weaker when he wakes up tomorrow?
The Nordics are really unsettled. Because of that, he hissed in annoyance and got up again and changed his position to sit on the edge of the bed.
"Jeez. I didn't know that sub quest would bother me," grumbled Nordic.
In the end the Nordics had no other choice. He needed to carry out the sub quests given by the system. The longer his body became more and more uncomfortable because his energy was decreasing.
But wait… if he couldn't explain the system in his brain to anyone, what was the Nordic reason for asking for a potion?

In the northern part of the Soul House building, the wall is sandwiched between two pillars.
Nordic found the entrance to the magic professor's room according to the system's instructions. But he couldn't even do anything. Just silent staring at a blank wall ... which has no doorknob at all!
How did the Nordics get in like this?!
“Huft…” Nordic breathed out as his body went limp. "Argh, why is everything here making me feel crazy?! What world is this anyway?!"
silence. The wind blew against the skin of Nordic cheeks, as if mocking him.
No one heard what he said. Meaning, the Nordics can't ask anyone for help.
"I should have approached Eglar earlier," muttered Nordic grunts.
Nordic walked to the pillar wall and leaned against it. The direction of his gaze did not move from the blank wall which according to the system explanation was the entrance to the magic professor's room.
"System, how are you going to explain this to me?" Nordic said to the system in his brain.
At first there was no answer. Then suddenly a holographic light radiated in front of his face, causing him to jerk backwards spontaneously.
"You surprised me!" Nordic said annoyed to the holographic beam.
[Ding!]
[Do you need any help?]
[If so, then you can focus your gaze on a single point of the object that makes you curious. The system will automatically process the information and answer your confusion]
After reading the explanatory sentence on the holographic beam, Nordic was forced to do as he was asked. For a few seconds he focused his eyes on the wall.
Unexpectedly, the appearance of the holographic beam changed.
[Information Processing System...]
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1... Information Found!]
[SPACE INFORMATION]
{THE ENTRY OF THE MAGIC PROFESSOR'S ROOM}
{There aren't many ways to open the door of the magic professor's room. The only way is you need to use whatever magic you can recite. If you have a magic intermediary tool—example; gemstones, stick them on the wall while chanting.}
Just this?
The Nordics are really pissed off. If it was only information like this, how could he understand?
"Fine. I had expected that this system wouldn't provide any useful information." Nordic grumbled as he straightened up.
Nordic immediately walked to the front of the wall while taking out a gemstone. Nor did Nordic actually feel confident that he could recite the incantations either. On the other hand, what are you going to use?
Stretching his neck muscles, Nordic prepared to recite the spell he had memorized during the fight. The gemstone in his hand was pinned to the wall.
After a split second the Nordic fell silent. He gathers focus while remembering spells when he fights with centaur creatures.
Suddenly something flashed through his mind.
"Maperilia Agnèsto!"
There was no reaction whatsoever. Nordic remained in position, waiting for the wall to open or not.
"MAPERILIA AGNÈSTO!"
When Nordic thought this wall couldn't work with the magic spell he was chanting, suddenly the door wall of the magic professor's room shook softly. There were lines of cracks appearing, from faint to clear, running from top to bottom.
Then as the crack widened, the exposed wall shifted to the right. Nordic waited for a moment while watching the movement of the wall in front of him.
Until finally the wall opened more and more widened. Shows the view in the room.
Nordic were stunned. However....
'DUARRR!!'
What is this?
There was the explosion of smoke that Nordic witnessed when the wall door was fully opened.Nordic stood motionless for a moment in his standing position, watching the puffs of smoke that made his eyes unable to see clearly. What's going on in this room?Feeling panicked, Nordic hurriedly trotted into the room. Through the puffs of smoke while occasionally waving his hands so that his eyes could see clearly. Even though the results were nil, the plume of smoke was too thick, and... the stench was overpowering."Jeez, why did it get messed up like this?!" In between the sounds of coughing, a man grumbled.After the Nordic broke through the fog, he could slowly make out two men looking distraught. They were standing near a long table filled with lots of laboratory equipment and tubes.Nordic suddenly stopped walking."You really suck!" cursed a man, I don't know which one spoke."Why am I to blame? Gosh. You suggested mixing this tamarind liquid with Andelius flower powder!""You should
[Sub Quest has been completed!][The system is processing adding rewards. Wait a moment][10, 9, 8, 7...,]Nordic didn't expect that he could obtain this energy-boosting potion. His breath was still ragged because his energy felt as if it was dying. The system time alert already showed only two minutes remaining.Now, in front of the wall that had closed again, Nordic gulped down the remaining liquid potion. Gradually, the Nordic body felt a bit different. The potion liquid flowing in his blood gave him a tingling sensation while making him less limp.[2, 1... System Process Complete!][Happy!

Nordic still closed his eyes while grimacing in a posi
To be honest Nordic thought Jacob's explanation was too much. However, he was wrong.A while ago, according to the mission written on the system, Nordic volunteered himself as one of the four members to be transferred to another Mage's party. Nordic thought everything would go according to plan, because he just wanted to finish his mission before evening.Unfortunately, Nordic was chosen to switch to the Eternal Fire Dragon Mage's group. The group that Jacob said had terrible treatment."As you can see here! All members of the Eternal Fire Dragon Mage have strong connections with their dragons. When fighting, they can already master how the airways work..."Nordic listened to one of the teachers of the Eternal Fire Dragon Mage when gathering with other members of the official group. Occasionally the Nordics looked around to see where the Vikings were teaching about the manufacture of weapons.Then the Nordic gaze stopped in a direction, where there was a group of burly men in armor, h
Nordic is sinking.Bubbles of water came out of his mouth while trying to take a breath. During that time, he tried to flap his arms and swim up. However, the intense pressure from above seemed to push his body deeper and deeper into the ocean.The light of the land was getting dimmer longer. The Nordic are starting to lose their minds looking for ways to get out of the pressure in this ocean. He only raised his head since earlier, watching the sky with resignation.'Why does it feel like something is pressing down on me so hard?' thought Nordic at the time.When Nordic's body was on the verge of weakness and he was about to give up hope, faintly heard a chant."A beautiful world... perishes in a single darkness... darkness that penetrates souls... until everything...."The singing voice that sounded very beautiful, and foreign. Nordic seemed to have just heard someone who has a sound similar to the strains of an orchestral instrument. The sound was so soft that Nordic felt hypnotized
Nordic woke up gasping and coughing every now and then. His whole body felt extremely light as someone seemed to be pushing up against the edge of the surface.For a few seconds, Nordic lay holding his stomach while taking a breath. His chest was so tight. As if a lot of water accumulated in his body.'What happened?' thought the Nordic looking at the towering pine tree trunks.Nordic tried to remember what had just happened to him. But nothing. He only remembers three siren women trying to harm him, then there were flashes of light repeatedly.This all feels like a dream."You are one of the lucky ones." Someone's voice suddenly sounded from behind.Nordic turned to the source of the sound, and frowned at the figure of a strange man. Long straight blonde hair, white skin—almost albino in fact, tall thin body, and slightly pointed ears on top.This strange man seemed to be cleaning something somehow. Then when he realized that there was no response from the other person, he stopped an
[WELCOME TO THE SOUL HOME BUILDING]That's what was written on the sign on the double doors of a building. Nordic was taken aback for a moment. When passing through the courtyard earlier, Nordic had time to calculate and estimate the level of this building. There are maybe fifty levels with a large circular shape.Without waiting long, these double doors opened inwards with a creaking sound. There was a stocky man walking up to Nordic and Eglar. He was dressed in the formal red of a hotel clerk, a marching band hat, a sign saying: Maglier W, Saxiest, Official Member of the Welcoming."You guys just arrived?" asked Maglier. His gaze was fixed on the Nordics. "You, are you—""Please don't tell anyone," Eglar cut in then. He sounded panicked. "He's Nordic. Just think of it as a normal guest."Maglier stared at Eglar for a moment, before finally nodding. He opened the way as a welcome gesture."Come on, you guys follow me. The man named Nordic has to fill in his data at the reception."Re
Nordic had encountered too many crazy things in his life.Except for this one.How could a Nordic recite a foreign spell to emit magic from the jewel in his hand?The Nordic breath hitched after the short but tense fight earlier. All eyes were watching him. Of course. Who doesn't feel strange watching someone foreign, unknown, suddenly able to cast spells from a strange wand?Nordic was well aware of the strange, confused, and terrifying looks from the creatures around him. That was why Nordic also felt immense awkwardness overtake him now."Hey, how can he do magic like that?""I don't know who he is. But isn't the magic he uses not just any magic?""Mad creature! Just arrived but already playing the champ and causing quite a stir.""Is he the 'new person' Your Highness refers to?""I had expected that when His Highness said Soul Sojourn would be the arrival of a 'new person', he would bring chaos!""Is he the 'new person' Your Highness refers to?""I had expected that when His Highn
Nordic couldn't believe what he was witnessing.As soon as the cage elevator door opened, he could immediately see the room stretching wide. Everything is made of stone with cave-like hollowed-out rock ceilings. Large square pillars line up neatly flanking a ten meter straight path from the cage elevator door to the steps.There was a large throne-like chair and about two meters high. Four torches are displayed on each of the four sides of each pillar. There is only one room on this top floor. Reminds the Nordics of the floor of a boss in the human world.Does this also apply to this room—a boss's room?But there's no one in this room.Nordic followed in Eglar's footsteps along the ten meter path to the throne. He still couldn't figure out what this place was.Everything looks strange and foreign. What is clear, Nordic knows this is not his world, the human world."Greetings, Your Majesty." Eglar stopped walking when he arrived four steps before the throne.Nordic confused. The direct
