The First Mage On Earth The Library Of The Hex Clan
I slowly descended into the basement. This is where grandpa kept the records and the knowledge of the Hex Clan. Yeah, turns out we have a clan. Ugh... No, we are a clan. I searched the study room more and find some more journals. In those journals basically some part of our family tree and the records of our family being called Hex Clan.Anyway, it's time to discover what the library of my clan holds. The basement was huge and all of it was the library. There were many shelves and all of them were full of books. There should be at least thousands of books in here."Amazing. This all belongs to my family and me."The words just come out of my mouth. This was so impressive that I ended up muttering. I mean there are supernatural secrets in these books so this alone makes them something ridiculously important. And I don't really know what else is in there. This makes me excited.I have to pull myself together. Remember what you came here for. Ï have to find a way to defeat death and brin
The First Mage On Earth The Trouble At The Border
I finally found what I need. I also studied it thoroughly. So I feel like I'm ready. I'm also taking some books with me so I can study them even after arriving at the Daxhoull. Anyway, since yesterday I worked on the formation till late night today I woke up late. I refill the key with hex and prepared everything to get out of here.I left an Exchange rune back in the Daxhoull but unfortunately, I can't use it yet. It requires a ridiculous amount of mana since the distance is hundreds of kilometers. I modify the Exchange runes to be able to simply teleport instead of changing places with other things but the mana cost is still high. I wish I had a space element. It is extremely useful in teleportation.Anyway, I left the mansion and take one last look at this dimension. Yeah, I confirmed it to be a separate dimension from the outside world. Grandpa mentioned it in his journals but he didn't explain how did he create this or did it exist before him. There are a lot of things I need to
The First Mage On Earth The Gang Part 1
A gang from Zlorith. That's the first impression I got from seeing inside the hideout from a window. There are some old daggers that are the specialty of Zlorith. The people of the Zlorith are extremely serious about their traditions. They have a long history, the Zlorith region was a region almost entirely made up of blacksmiths back in the old times. They were the creators of almost every weapon in the old medieval era. At the same time, the Zhose region was a region focused on mining so the two were getting along pretty well.At some point, there was a conflict between the people of these two regions. There were a lot of speculations but the main reason isn't clear. All we know conflict was quite big and it caused two regions to be enemies each other for about a century.Anyway, Zlorith isn't the important thing here. There are seven people in this hideout. All of them have mana traces on them. But there is one person who is quite different than others. She has... aether in her bod
The First Mage On Earth The Gang Part 2
"Fine. Then we will get rid of her after we got our payment. Since she can't hear us while wearing that bracelet she will be unprepared. Jack, you can send energy slashes so behead her head with one strike." "Why do we wait until we got our payment? Let's deal with her now." "You do realize that we are dealing with someone very dangerous, right? The Crimson Skeleton is a big group. They may erase us if we look weak to them. And we are in fact weak now." I heard some more confusing things. Firstly that bracelet sounds terrible. It makes someone unable to hear anything. So that's why she wasn't reacting to what they were talking about. I should inspect it later. The other thing is Crimson Skeleton. This is a weird name like it just jumped out of some fantasy novel. Wait! The world around me has a lot of weird things recently so this should be acceptable. Anyway, it sounds like a name for a dangerous group. According to their conversation, they must be the ones who ordered them to ma
The First Mage On Earth Oscar vs Izumi
Her body was covered with dark veins visible to even normal eyes. Her eyes also changed. Her scleras turned dark and her pupils start glowing with crimson light. There is also a bit of blood coming out of both sides of her eyes. In just a few seconds the air around her changed. Whatever this form was, it made her a seriously dangerous opponent to me."Kill him!"With the shout of the man, she moved to attack me. She swung her fist toward my face but I dodged it by jumping backward. She didn't care about me dodging her and she kept attacking me with a similar pattern. She would gather a lot of aether on her fist and charge at me. It was easy to read but the problem was her getting faster every time I dodged her."Hey, your name is Izumi, right? Why are you listening to that guy? Isn't he using you for his own gains?"She didn't respond to any of my questions and kept attacking me. I was still able to dodge her attacks but at this rate, she will be able to land a hit on me soon. Before
The First Mage On Earth Izumi Kinukage
"Izumi! Stop laying on the ground! You can not look pitiful! Get up, right this moment!"Kenji Kinukage yelled at the little girl who was weakly laying on the ground. He was frowning while watching the girl struggling to get up. The tiny body of the girl was shaking. She was trying to breathe but she was coughing nonstop and unable to breathe air properly."You have to master our clan's teachings. If you can't learn them that means you have no talent and you are the disgrace of our clan. Do you want to be a disgrace to our clan?""...no...""Speak louder!""...No...""Then get up! You aren't allowed to rest until you at least get the basics.""But father-""No buts! You have to do as I say! Get up now!"Kenji shouted at the little girl. She was clearly frightened by his father's harsh attitude. She tried to get up even while her body was shaking. She gathered the last of her strength to stand straight but a single flick of the finger from her father made her fly away several meters aw
The First Mage On Earth New Companion
After dealing with Izumi I was finally able to relax a bit. She is sleeping for a while now. She looks peaceful while sleeping. Compared to that pained expression this one clearly suits her more. Anyway, let's return to the present.The moment I relaxed, I start vomiting. It seems like seeing that bloody death affected me more than I thought. Or it was me killing those gang members and robed figures without any hesitation. I was afraid of getting used to killing people and it seems like I'm turning into what I'm afraid of. Am I turning into a monster? A cold-blooded killer?I can safely say that those people I killed weren't innocent. I'm not sure about that robed guy but if I took the suicide of that one member, I think it is safe to assume that they are a shady group of people wanting to preserve their secrets even if it cost their lives. Not to mention the things I heard about the mana and magi-tech. These things alone are enough to prove to me that they aren't innocent. They are t
The First Mage On Earth Return To Daxhoull
An eight hours long bus travel to Daxhoull. That's how I was planning to return. But because of what happened at the border of the Zhose, my plans have been changed.Izumi has become my companion and she started traveling with me now. We are basically running to the Daxhoull, thanks to our bodies it's not as bad as it sounds. My body is already strengthened by mana and hex so I have more stamina and power compared to before. Izumi also has a supernaturally strong body.Unlike mine, her body seems to be strengthened from birth by aether albeit the degree of strengthening is about the same as mine, which I achieved in about two weeks."So, you have a bloodline power. It comes from birth and only manifests itself when you are able to activate it.""Yes. I couldn't activate it when I was little so it was dormant for a long time. But about six months ago I was able to finally activate it.""What it can do exactly? I saw that weird berserk form but I don't really understand what it was.""T

Mason's Project
"Your project?""Yeah. I think with the help of mana, I can complete it."After school, I returned to our base as usual but the moment I stepped inside, Mason came to me and start talking about his project. It was weird to see him this energetic but I think this is a good sign. It's already several days since he woke up and he was kind of depressed all the time. Maybe he is starting to accept what happened to him and trying to move on. That would be the best for him right now.He always had a bit of a nerdy side to him but to think he was working on a project, I never thought it. People are really surprising."What kind of project are you talking about?""It was mostly theoretical but at its core, it was about distributing, collecting, and even connecting energy from long distances. I had trouble finding a decent source of energy to make it work. On paper, every other energy type I tried had failed. They were either too weak or too strong for it.""Distributing... Connecting... Say, M
Fun for the weekend?
(Oscar)Jason seemed to be nervous. I don't know what he is exactly thinking but it has to be something to do with Hope. Whenever he seems nervous he often thinks about Hope. Watching him feels both amusing and a bit weird. I guess love really makes people change.We are sitting inside the clubroom right now. It's already after school. Today school was boring as usual. I can't enjoy school as I used to after learning more about the supernatural world but I can't just abandon this life. In the worst case, I can use it as a cover. But still, it's damn boring. Well, the school festival is coming in two weeks' time so I might get the chance to enjoy it. Our club decided to publish a comic book and we have almost finished it."Will you talk already? Watching you this nervous makes me uncomfortable."I said with a bit of irritation in my voice. He keeps fidgeting in his seat for ten minutes already. Anyone would be uncomfortable just sitting near him. I was unfortunately sitting right acros
Luna Edgar, The Heir of the Edgar Coven
Elders' balcony"...Luna Edgar cleared the third stage of the trial... It is time for elders to decide..."After Hector's words, everyone turned towards the elders' balcony. There was a deadly silence, both inside of the balcony and outside of it. All of the elders and the leader of the coven had serious and grim expressions on their faces. Before the situation could turn into something else Elijah talked."We will announce our decision... ten minutes later. Meanwhile, everyone should take some break."Everyone visibly relaxed after hearing Elder Elijah's words, other elders included. When the attention was lifted from the balcony all of the elders turned to each other. Elijah was once again the first to talk."This will give us ten minutes. We should make a decision.""...I find it hard to make. All of us saw it. She awakened the curse mark and even deactivate it by herself. This should be investigated before we can make any decision.""You are right, Camila. But, most of them don't
Luna's Trial part 3
And now it's time for her final opponent. This one will be the most difficult one and also where she will use her true power to show everyone what she really can do. Before Hector was announced at the beginning of the third trial, the leader of the coven stand up from her seat. This immediately attacked everyone's attention.Luna furrowed her brows seeing the expression on her mother's face. Almost everyone could only see her expression as nothing but indifference but Luna could read her expression. Eliana was angry. She was going to do something to satiate that anger of hers. This will be definitely something that will make things harder for Luna. And she was absolutely right."...We will use another monster for the third stage. Hector, bring out the convict number 6 and cease that stupid jokes.""!!! Yes, ma'am."That's bad, thought Luna. She knew what her mother meant as the convict number 6 also known as the cold one. It was one of the only monsters she didn't want to face. It was
Luna's Trial part 2
"Hahaha. She is a promising young witch. If we want to survive in the future we need every young witch we can. We all know the situation on the Sanraisu. There are already many suspicious movements related to the clans reported. They will eventually set their eyes outside of the Sanraisu. They will notice our existence, if not today, a few years later at most. When the troubling times are getting closer, should we really punish our best witch?"Camila furrowed her brows. She knew that Elijah was right. There were big troubles on the horizon. The number of the witches on the earth can't be compared to the clans of the Sanraisu. Also, some of the clans had much more power than most of the covens. So, this was one of the reasons why witch covens scattered around the world and hid from everyone else. To survive.In a possible war against those clans, witches will certainly perish. This was the bitter truth every elder of every coven on earth had to accept. Elder Avery and Elder Layla look
Luna's Trial part 1
Luna was waiting in front of the old wooden door. She was inside a room with only a simple chair in it. This was a waiting room. She was in here this room for an hour already. She was waiting for the trial to begin. There was a colosseum-like room behind the old wooden doors.She had to be judged in the trial because of her big failure with her previous spell. She didn't expect her spell to go wrong and cause this. She will have to fight against many opponents and defeat them all to clear this trial. The main purpose of this trial is to prove one's power to defend itself and defeat enemies. All this was that her failure might alert clans and the rest of the supernatural world of their existence. The witches have been in hiding for the last four hundred years and every coven on earth wants to keep it this way.The trial will happen in a reflection dimension. This dimension mirrors the real world and whatever happens inside stays inside. The witches use this dimension to keep their exis
Concerns for the Future
(Oscar's POV)Hah... There are a lot of concerning things for the future. Mason just woke up and decide that he wants to join us. Charlotte also chose to join us with him. I wonder when they are going to confess to each other. It is clear that both of them have feelings for each other. Thanks to this I won't need to erase or alter Charlotte's memories. We are still a small team after all. Keeping everyone safe is my utmost priority.After a little bit talk, I sent Mason to rest in the infirmary. It's best that he rest a bit more. Charlotte also went to look after him. It's really cute seeing them together. After they left the main hall, I chatted with Kairi and Izumi for a while. When it started to get late I went home."I'm home, mom.""Welcome back, sweetheart. Dinner is almost ready.""Oh, I'm coming just after changing my clothes."I went up to my room and changed my clothes. Tomorrow there is school and I also have to plan the future of the team. I'm the leader of our team at th
Mason's Decision
"Well, you are trying to create a new element. You wouldn't expect it to be easy to achieve. It's something unheard of in the spirit realm. You achieving this much is already an awesome feat.""What can I say, I'm the first mage on earth."I smiled smugly. I am really proud of this nickname. I may have given it to myself but that doesn't matter. The truth is I really am the first mage on this earth. There is no clan that can use mana and does magic. There are bounty hunters who can use mana but they can only use it with the help of magi-tech. And spirits are spirits.After me, Mason would be the second mage. Well, if he doesn't want to be in this world I can't force him. I want him to be with me in this but I can't force this on him. This is something he has to decide of his free will.There are many amazing things on the supernatural side of the world. I don't know everything but I already know the wonderful things this world has to offer. Things you can do with mana or aether are fa
Talk With Mason; New Elements
"That's... hard to believe...""I know. I would have a hard time adjusting my mind to these fantastical things if my mind weren't influenced by the mana back then.""What kind of influence you are talking about?""Hmm... It's hard to describe. It's like your body and mind both want to embrace mana and you yourself slowly drifting toward the mana and magic.""That's a little scary.""I know. But mana itself isn't scary. It's just an energy. It's up to you how you use it."I told him everything that happened. How I found him on the verge of death and how he died in my arms. It was embarrassing to talk about it now that he was back to life. But I told him everything anyway. We have known each other for years and I know that I can trust him with anything.He had a difficult time believing everything I told him. I created a small fire in my hand and showed this to him. He was shocked and started to accept things. Seeing supernatural things is always more effective than hearing them from so
