The Successor System Plan B: Part 1
He was just a few inches away from achieving his goal, his purpose.He remembered his quest’s punishment and failure was definitely not an option. It was just seconds left......., seconds! But then, this had to happen. ‘Must be telekinesis.’ His eyes quickly darted around as he found the one responsible for this. A girl with long dark brown hair and jade eyes and she had a sadistic smile on her face while staring at him. Art cast a pleading gaze at her because right now, he was suspended mid-air with his hands stretched a few inches away from the crystal.He was literally begging to be annihilated and he could feel it…………, the glares of the opposing team. It was only a matter of seconds before he gets blasted to oblivion.The sadistic grin on her face broadened as he felt the attacks moving towards him.‘Is this karma,' he thought before making sure to memorize her face.“BOOOOOMMMM!!!”Another large explosion occurred as a certain someone was sandwiched between attacks and he fe
The Successor System Plan B: Part 2
Art could tell, he expected this. So it wasn't surprising when the guy who grabbed the crystal and hoped for his legs to have the privilege of embracing the ground got met with a lightning bolt mid-air.No one cares about what remained of him as their gazes were fixed on the crystal which had left his hand and was now sailing through the air. Nobody moved from their spot as they trailed the crystal with their eyes up until it fell on the ground.After that, they began glancing at each other in silence. Some seconds later the first person to move was a girl and she didn’t complete her second step before attacks began flying around.Art had to step back to think more about how to tackle the situation.He looked towards Professor Prisca to see her happily jotting away. She was obviously enjoying the moment.Art focused back on the competition.He watched as several people from both teams gained the crystal in an attempt to run for their home only to lose it again.Asura had also stepp
The Successor System New Quests
While heading to class, Art released a sigh because of the amount of APs hovering above his hand.//2691//(« Things displayed from the Relis or any device would be written like this from now on) He made it just before the time elapsed, securing victory for Alphah Team B in yesterday’s activity, hereby raising his amount of APs as well as completing the mission and leveling up.This also gave his teammates 2000 APs so some of them came fawning over him after their victory and he could also remember it. The hateful glares cast at him from Charlie Team A members. He shook his head. This was going to affect their comradeship.Alphah group and Charlie group both ended up with two team victories while Deltah and Betah had one.Because of the tie, no group gained the additional 1000 EXP.Such bullshit.He was going alone without Viron and Sil, and today they were to have their first specialized classes. It was mostly to get to know their teachers and also familiarize them with classmates.
The Successor System Teacher vs Students
After securing that, he headed to the building where the summoning class was to be held. He was still confused about why the system wanted him to learn about all these attributes.If it was only the elemental class he would understand because of his earth attribute.Pondering on this wasn’t going to take him anywhere so he stopped.“This must be it,” he muttered, in front of a building before walking in. There were two large rooms in this building. Each was mostly consumed by a large open space which was surrounded by chairs. Several people were already seated in one of the rooms which were meant for weapon summoners and the other was for familiar summoners but it was empty for now.Iris, Beatrix, Ryan, Lidia, and eight more people he didn’t know were here.This meant that all four classes were merged.Sil was absent, most likely crashing somewhere. So he was the 13th person to arrive.Beat
The Successor System Challenge
Art was seated on a bench while massaging his wrist. The truth was that it had ended up broken from their little spar, or better put………greeting.So much for fulfilling all righteousness. The funny part of this was that Elise barely touched any of them.Her skills were exceptional even without the use of any weapon.They were the ones who ended up hurting themselves and he came out in a much better state than most of them.As for Beatrix, he hoped that she was doing better now.Things got really rough.He had taken an E-rank healing pill which was why it still felt a bit numb.It’s been a week since this happened and many challenges have been issued and fought since the release of the ranking three days ago.Most people were still hesitant on challenging the Elites, so only a few challenges were sent at them which were all ignored.Well, that was except for one person.Yeap!It was him.He had received many visitors since he was the lowest-ranked Elite but he also ignored their chal
The Successor System Rejection and Loss
They found it hard to believe what they had just heard.“Did he just reject?”“I think I heard something like that.”“I’m pretty sure he said reject.”“Maybe it just slipped.” The crowd murmured while occasionally glancing at the figure seated.“What did you just say?” Javik asked in confusion. There was no way someone can just throw away their elite title just like that right?”“Let me just remind you, refusing would…”“I’m very much aware of that. I don’t feel like fighting,” he casually said as a beeping sound came from his and Javik's watch.A little bit hesitant, Javik stretched out his hand. “Display rank.” His eyes widened seeing the bold ‘20’ hovering above it.‘He became an elite… just like that.’He was completely satisfied with this but what was done was done. He stared intensely at Art trying to read what he was thinking but he couldn’t.The casual and unbothered expression on his face never faltered. Seeing this situation hopeless, there was no need for him to stay a
The Successor System Parallel World 1
“Since you’ve all gotten a better grasp on summoning your true weapon, we would move on to the next phase,” Elise said to the teenagers sitting in front of her. Their attentions were completely fixed on her as they wondered what she had next.Elise had become more devoted to teaching them. For her, they were more than what she could ask for. She was astounded when she found out the abilities of their true weapons which nature even rivals that of the current pillars, including her.This was one of the best generations ever produced and she was sure that they were destined for great things, which would come with many challenges, so she was willing to guide them as best as she could.If she didn’t deem them fit, she won’t even think of wasting any additional second of her time so she didn’t hold back any information which they could handle while teaching them.“This weapon is a bit special,” she said holding onto a dagger that was purple with little spikes protruding from the hilt.“It
The Successor System Parallel World 2
He looked towards what grabbed his leg to see a black hand that stuck out of the ground. His eyes widened as a sword also pierced out of the ground heading towards his forehead. He managed to react on time shifting his head which caused him to obtain a graze and after pulling out his leg, while creating some distance, he placed his hand on his cheek which had blood trickling down.“I can bleed? How is this possible?” he felt the sting of the cut which proved his earlier assumption of also feeling pain.“And what’s going on here?”A figure began forming from the ground and when this was finished, standing in front of him was a 7 feet tall black and golden striped figure with a great sword at hand.It looked human but its facial features were undefined. It had no private organs either.He didn’t need to be enlightened on the hostility of the thing in front of him. In a way, he had already been.He wondered if this was some sort of test and if so, if was really dangerous and he was sti

Invitation 2
“Art?” Elora’s voice broke the tranquility of the courtyard, her green eyes widening as she took in his appearance. Her heart-shaped lips parted in surprise, and for a moment, she seemed lost for words. She hadn’t expected him to show up, much less looking so… different. Art inclined his head slightly in a gesture of courtesy. The movement was restrained and formal, but it unsettled Elora. She didn't want him acting this way. “You’re here,” Art said, shifting his gaze to the person he was most familiar with. “Yes,” Asura replied, her bright purple eyes locking onto his. Her keen gaze swept over him, noting the changes not just in his stature but his overall demeanor. This was the first time they’d seen each other since the raid, and Asura could sense that Art had grown. Finally, Art’s attention shifted to the third figure present, the most imposing of the group. A woman in her late twenties stood with her arms lightly crossed. Her long, straight white hair flowed elegantly in the

Invitation 1
Art walked through an open pathway, hands in his pockets. He was looking better after finally getting some sleep.Neither Viron nor Sil was in the room. He hadn’t seen them for over two weeks, only occasionally sensing their presence when they returned. The same went for Daste, his third roommate.For some reason, he hadn’t heard anything from his guide during this time. This wasn’t like other instances—it felt different. He couldn’t sense her at all. He believed it had something to do with the body she had told him to hold back in the room back then.Several people were walking and talking around him. From the crowd, he suddenly heard his name.“Art!!!”He turned toward the voice to see Caitlyn running toward him. That’s right, he hadn’t seen her during all this time either. She had a worried yet surprised expression written all over her face.She stopped just in front of him, immediately noticing the changes in his appearance over the past month. He had grown slightly taller and loo

A much stronger Art
Hmph!A soft grunt escaped as a boy slumped back into the chair he was seated on.His usual spiky black hair now drooped, and his golden eyes—once vibrant—were dimmed by exhaustion, with dark bags beneath them. His complexion was pale, a clear sign of poor health.Anyone who had known him before would immediately notice the stark changes in his appearance. Yet, despite his unhealthy look, there was no mistaking that he had grown stronger. His muscle mass had significantly increased, and the calluses and bruises on his hands told a story of relentless physical training. But perhaps the most striking difference was the aura of magic surrounding him. Even when suppressed, it was intimidating. His roommates, had they been less powerful themselves, might have felt uneasy simply being near him.This was also a result of intense mana cultivating to improve his magic core. All this was the result of one month of grueling training since his return from the Ancient City. Today marked exactly

The Kyusei
Within a certain place, A vast, hollowed-out cavern was concealed behind a cascading waterfall deep within the mountains. The roar of the water outside echoed faintly through the chamber, mixing with the low hum of tension that filled the space. The air was damp, and the stone walls were rough and unrefined, scarred with cracks that seemed to form a web around the room. Seven figures stood at different points in the chamber, each occupying their own corner of the expansive space. The dim, flickering light from a series of braziers scattered throughout the room cast long shadows, distorting their forms on the uneven walls. One stood near the entrance, leaning casually against the stone, his arms crossed and his face hidden by the shadow of his hood. Another lingered by a jagged outcrop at the far side, their fingers idly tracing a scar etched into the rock, as if lost in thought. A third crouched low on a raised ledge, their sharp eyes scanning the others like a predator assessing p

Reunion
“Are you feeling better now?” Sonra asked Rhea, her voice soft with concern. Rhea, like the others, had several bandages wrapped around her body. The rest of their party was in a similar state, their injuries a testament to the ordeal they had just survived. Though they had been congratulated by their superiors for their bravery and promised additional points, the weight of what they had faced left no room for celebration. The atmosphere among them was heavy. Each member was lost in thought, reflecting on the experience of barely escaping death. For most of them, this was their first brush with mortality, and it had left an indelible mark. Rhea’s gaze was distant, her thoughts trapped in a memory she wished she could forget. She kept recalling the tragedy of her childhood, where no help had come in time. If only things had been different, maybe those other children wouldn’t have died. The pain of that day was etched into her expression, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. Ramond

Saved?
The eerie sensation of being watched thickened the air around them. Art and Asura exchanged wary glances, their breaths quickening as the oppressive feeling pressed down on them. It wasn’t long before their worst fears were confirmed. From the shadows, five ash-like humanoid figures emerged, their forms identical to the entity they had barely managed to defeat moments ago.The duo sat frozen on the ground, unable to rise, not because of exhaustion alone but because the sheer magnitude of the threat was paralyzing. The figures moved with unnerving synchronicity, their glowing blue runes pulsing rhythmically like malevolent heartbeats.Four of the creatures stopped at an equidistant perimeter, forming an ominous circle around their prey. But the fifth, larger and more menacing, stepped forward, breaking the symmetry. Its towering frame cast a long shadow over the duo, and its glowing blue eyes locked onto them with an intensity that felt almost sentient.Art and Asura didn’t move. They

False Relieve
“Do you have anything in mind?” She asked, preparing herself. “Yes,” a grin appeared on Art’s face. “I’ve been preparing something during our fight. It’s a good thing we didn’t end up dead before I could use it. I believe that it has weaknesses at some points of its body, which happen to be its magic energy source. It seems that it was made by a mage from long ago, but I’m surprised that it’s still functional and this strong.”"I think delivering powerful hits to these points could destroy it. But I doubt that we'll be able to do that without at least one of us getting killed."He was able to learn all this after he researched rune magic. When they arrived here, he tried creating a teleportation circle that would link to the one he left back in the forest, but it failed. Something seemed to be obstructing it. This showed that he still had much to learn.But if things go well, they might just succeed in defeating it.“Here’s what we’ll do…”***The Ash humanoid, which had been looking

Fragments of the Frosty Past
The crumbling walls of the abandoned city wrapped around them like a grave, the air heavy with silence. Art and Asura sat across from each other in the hollow of a shattered building, their exhaustion palpable. The faint glow from the top filtered through cracks in the ceiling, casting soft light over their battered forms.It seemed that night was upon them since it was slowly getting darker.Art leaned back against the cold stone wall, his breathing finally steadying. He glanced at Asura, who sat with her knees drawn up, frost still clinging faintly to her fingertips. The way the light touched her pale skin and the shadows danced in her lilac-white hair made her look ethereal, even now. Even though she was pretty messy. “You weren’t bad out there. We’re just outmatched,” Art said, breaking the quiet.Asura blinked, caught off guard. Her gaze shifted to him, studying his face. “Outmatched huh?” she repeated, tilting her head slightly.He nodded. “Most people would’ve folded under tha

We'll definitely save them.
“Guys!!!” Sonra and Caitlyn, among the six who arrived with Professor Verone, sprinted toward their party members. Relief washed over their faces, though it was mixed with worry. When Verone informed them of the danger their friends faced, they feared the worst. Miraculously, despite the odds, everyone was alive. Tears glistened in Caitlyn's eyes as she embraced Rhea. “You’re okay! I thought…” “I know,” Rhea said softly, exhaustion evident in her voice. “We’re still here.” The reunion was bittersweet, shadowed by the looming threat. While the students exchanged hurried words of relief, the adults gathered nearby, their attention already on the remnants of the battle. Professor Verone addressed the bald man in their group. “Did you discover anything?” “Where’s Japh?” the bald man demanded brusquely. “He’s unavailable,” Verone replied calmly. “I’m in charge. Report to me.” The bald man gave her a brief nod, then explained the details of the creature they had encountered. As he sp
