“And the winner of this battle has finally been decided! Give it up for the War God Mage Academy!” The referee’s voice echoed across the arena announcing the War God Academy team as the winners, As those who have turned supporters of the War God Academy erupted into loud cheers, the journey of the black horse was still captivating their spirits.Lucas could be seen standing proudly in the center of the battle ring, his body adorned with a few cuts and bruises, but nonetheless, he stood tall. His glaive pierced into the ground, he had to summon his spirit equipment set before he could match the formidable opponent he faced, Maximum Knight, but in the end he had won. Even though the Vajra Academy tried to frustrate the War God Academy since Alec stepped down their fate seems sealed as it was hard to lose such an advantage the War God Academy team has except all of them were still low rank mages, which ain’t the case. “I guess we didn’t need Beatrice after all,” Selene casually remar
After a lengthy discussion about their personal issues, Alec and his entire team felt a sense of closeness and harmony that hadn't been present before Alec decided to call it quits on his side. As Alec was making his way to his room, he was intercepted by his clansmen. "Alec, we wanted to speak with you privately, would it be alright if we came into your room for a conversation?" Agnes was the one who spoke up first, Alec slowly glanced at Arthur, Brandon, Knight, and Agnes, with their heads slightly lowered.And he had a sense of why they had sought him out.So he slowly opened the door, allowing them to enter."It's funny that this is the first time we're stepping foot in your room since we arrived at the Grand Arena, considering how we've always been tagging along and crashing at your previous places, one would expect us to have done so already." Arthur couldn't help but blurt out. Alec, understanding their sentiment, nodded. "Well, now that you're here, can you tell me what it
The Patriarch of the Gordons clan could be seen as he dragged the cloth of the invader Mage, who acted as their leader, with his three golems surrounding him. The entire outer area of the Gordons clan lay in ruins, completely unrecognizable from its once beautiful setup.“It seems you’ll be working your ass off for the next month, old Third,” the Fourth Elder of the Gordons clan said, tossing the body of two captured mages he had manage to apprehend to the ground. Among the elders, the Third elder was the only one who had captured a comparatively low number of invaders, after he finished dealing with one of the invaders He turned around to find that his capable brothers and their supporting golems had apprehended the majority of the intruders.“Extra golems should be banned, really! It’s not fair,” the Third Elder grumbled, delivering a forceful strike with his Naginata blade to the face of his captive, knocking him out. “Don’t be a grumpy old man, now let’s see who this is,” the
Alec returned to the Amulet worlds, enveloped by the darkness that no longer gave him a sense of emptiness. Instead, the space now teemed with a multitude of objects: the Three Doors of the Beast Forest floated on one side, the majestic Primordial Tree towered on another, and the carcass of a demonic beast that he had accumulated also draped over the Primordial tree’s root. Adjacent to them, is a small mana spring adding a touch of vibrancy, as everything seemed more vivid and vibrant compared to the moment Alec was first summoned to the Amulet world, filled with nothing but void. As Alec gazed at the Primordial Tree, he suddenly realized that he had overlooked something, perhaps his preoccupation with the ongoing competition had diverted his attention. Nonetheless, after achieving Tier 5 mage status it meant he was now capable of growing a fifth branch on the tree.The thought of growing another branch spurred a prompt system notification.[> Pay 100,000 Spirit Points to grow a
With the assistance of the new branch, Alec was able to relocate some of the demonic beast corpses closer to the Mana pond. He closed his eyes and tried visualizing the pond absorbing the carcasses, causing him to witness the emergence of tentacles made of luminous light elements. These tentacles stretched out from the sides of the pond, piercing into the bodies of the dead beasts and extracting their essence. Within minutes, Alec observed over two hundred Tier 3 demonic beast corpses being drained until they turned to dust.Lifting his head, Alec noticed a small bar flickering like it was about to go off and it was almost halfway filled. He interpreted this as a measure of the pond’s progress towards the next level. Intrigued, he instructed the free branch to bring another set of roughly three hundred corpses near the Mana pond. Alec was keen to see how much the pond could devour before ascending to the next level.The free branch obediently moved back towards its roots whe
Alec had long suspected that by visualizing a specific beast in his mind, as long as that beast resided within the beast forest, he would be dropped off close to it or, at the very least, right in front of it. However He had once found himself in an unfortunate situation, dropped amidst a pack of Shadow Wolves, when he thought about it before entering the Beast forest door. In that perilous moment, Alec had been solely focused on escaping the gaping jaws of the Alpha Shadow Wolf, giving him little opportunity to contemplate the decision that had led to his predicament.However, since that incident, Alec had deeply pondered about the matter, because whenever he entered the beast forest with a clear mind, he found himself transported to random locations, encountering a variety of different demonic beasts each time. And Alec knew that if he had to face unpredictable beasts every day, it would hinder his progress in evolving his Devourer Bloodline beasts. And he firmly believed that
Alec leaped directly into the midst of the Minion demonic beasts that served under the Golden Horned Drake, which his golems had just slain. He danced and twisted among them, swinging the dual fiery chains that were wrapped around his hands with deadly precision. With each swing, the blades at the end of the chains decapitated a beast, leaving a trail of blood in his wake as he tried to clear a path through the encirclement he jumped into. His dual weapons, which were blazing with scorching heat, cleaved through the beasts as he swung the fiery chains that extended all the way to his elbows.“This proficiency really pays off!” Alec muttered as he yanked the fiery chains, pulling the airborne weapons down towards the neck of a bull demonic beast that was charging towards him. As both blades lodged themselves on either side of its neck.The beast cried out in pain as the blades pierced deep into its flesh, the heat burning it from the inside out, but Alec wasn’t finished yet.He
The next day, Alec stepped out of his room only to find the main room completely empty, this was a surprising development; as he had never encountered a time when the space felt so deserted.Curious, he closed his eyes and attempted to use his mental energy to probe for any hidden presence, perhaps planning a surprise for him. Unfortunately, the other room's barrier blocked any mental power interference, regardless, he was able to confirm that no one was there.Determined to find someone, he made his way to the training room as he was sure he would meet either Lucas or Brandon there. When Alec opened the door, he was taken aback to see everyone gathered inside, except for the instructors, Selene, and the Dean. The atmosphere buzzed with excitement as everyone battled, clearly venting their energy, although they couldn’t see it, but every time Alec used his Inspect skill on them, he noticed just how they were progressing even if it was little percentage. He understood that the cult
