The Successor System Silly names
After taking a seat, he waited patiently as someone arrived beside him shortly after. He had switched back to the aura vision mask to maintain his anonymity because this was someone he was familiar with.Art shifted his gaze to the person this came from, who was wearing a blue and black mask, before nodding his head.The person proceeded to sit beside him.Art was the one who told this person to meet him so it wasn’t as if he was oblivious to his identity.“I need you to help me with something.”This was the same boy who had helped him during the ‘deliver the crystal' competition.Ever since then, he had been showing respect and loyalty to Art.If only he knew what really happened that day.At first, this seemed a little annoying because of the slight pestering but he saw this as an opportunity to use him.“What do you want me to do?” he asked in anticipation of what Art had in mind.~Wisper~ ~Wisper~ ~Wisper~Blake’s eyes within the mask widened. “But that isn’t allowed.”This was de
The Successor System Red vs Bull
The fight up till now had been a tough one with both opponents trying to eliminate each other as soon as possible. And with just four minutes left for the next opponent to arrive, their desperation was justified. But the person who would be victorious already seemed settled.After getting pierced by the finger whose abilities weren’t still clear, Bull Reiner’s movement had kept dulling and with his attribute being a flexible type, which involved the control of the black substance in front of him, he was now having a hard time keeping up.This earned him more slashes from the fingers.“Tch!” Bull Reiner stared at the masked figure approaching him probably with a smile.‘I guess I messed up when I let that first finger touch me. I didn’t even feel the pain, and my strength is being drained continuously. It also seems like his fingers are glowing slightly. Just what the hell is the exact ability of those fingers? I’m going to lose if I don’t do something quickly.’Red redder had gotten t
The Successor System A Threat
~Pant~~Pant~~Pant~~Chuckle~“You’re one tough motherfucker,” Red Redder smiled with trickles of blood escaping from beneath his mask as he stared at the person in front of him who was wearing a blood-red demon mask.“Oh my! The contest is just kicking off but things are already this heated up. Looks like I was right. Right Kory?”“Hmmm.”The clash between them began only halfway to the arrival of the next contestant and even with that, he ended up in his current state.At some point in their fight, he was doubting if he would ever make it to catch a glance of the next contestant, but after some time he noticed something off.If this person was desperate to finish him off the same way he was to Bull Reiner, he would certainly be disqualified a long time ago.Added to the fact that his opponent hasn’t uttered a word since he arrived, it was proving difficult to read what he was thinking.But Red Redder found this stupid; leaving a threat existing when you could erase it.Another fact
The Successor System What sort of monster is this?
Over 50 tattoos on his body shattered sending green glass-like fragments flickering around and immediately after, 50 different bladed weapons appeared hovering around him. Lexi held onto two weapons, a spear on his right and a new sword on his left, which replaced the former that was destroyed in the crash. What he just pulled off was impressive, hence, it obviously required a significant amount of mana.Five green shurikens spun towards the red demon-masked man, with Lexi narrowing his eyes to monitor what would happen. And similar to what he expected, the air around 5 different points began to shimmer and condense, which was followed by 5 beams of shockwaves shooting toward the shurikens. Having control over the shurikens, Lexi was able to change their directions mid-air, successfully evading 2 of them from the shockwaves while the other 3 were completely destroyed.He didn’t seem bothered about that in the slightest rather, he had a smile on his face as just that simple exchange
The Successor System Two demons
The contest continued with more and more contestants joining in, and now, it was finally time for a good entrance.“Introducing contestant 20.” The moment this was heard, the fighting of the previous contestants seized as everyone looked towards the approaching figure.*Step**Step**Step*Whoever this contestant 20 was, gave off a confident and dominating aura together with the menacing mask. It immediately gave the impression that another formidable force had arrived. No one needed to be told the outcome of two tigers staying in one mountain. It would be very normal if this new contestant fought it off with the red demon-masked guy whom no one dared to approach after the fall of Lexi and Red Redder.Strangely enough, he hadn’t made a move either except for the occasional shockwaves that go off once someone gets too close. So everyone stayed out of range from him while fighting and eliminating each other.Seeing all the attention, contestant 20 couldn’t help but smirk internally at
The Successor System Disturbing Stranger 1
“Huh?” Art raised an eyebrow when seeing the change in the woman’s expression, or better put, he could feel it. ‘What is she planning?’ Immediately after, he felt himself lose control of 5 earth bullets, which was when what she had in mind dawned on him. “ I see. What a bothersome woman. “ Because of the number of earth bullets, his control was spread thin enough for her to take control over a few. Before Art was able to regain control to stop her, the five bullets shot towards the red demon-faced masked man. As it reached the normal range, the shockwaves were released, rippling all five bullets while progressing further to Art. All the earth bullets moved behind him, towards the direction of the incoming attacks, merging together to form a shield. The shockwaves slammed, cracking the shield while the resulting force spread across the arena. “Is it just me or do those shockwaves seem stronger?” One of the contestants left standing muttered. Art had a slight frown on his face w
The Successor System Disturbing Stranger 2
Art’s eyes darted towards the arena entrance as a figure walked towards them. This person was covered with a black cloak, wearing a white and purple wolf mask. Yes, this was the same girl he met during the contest registration.Something was very unsetting about her, especially with the kind of smile her lips were curved into.She arrived beside the kneeling Art with her smile growing even brighter, and before he could react, her hand was on his lips cleaning the little blood left.‘She’s fast!’ He hit her hand away from his face using his before stepping back.He didn’t know if he was imagining things but she seemed saddened by this.“Who are you?” He couldn’t help but ask. Her smile returned as she voiced out, “Quite disappointing, but you’d be finding out soon enough. Why don’t we take care of him first.” Hearing her voice caused his headache to be triggered once more as memories came flooding in. He groaned in pain with his eyes widening as he realized who this person was. “Tr
The Successor System Little Sister Freda
“Great to see you Kia-ri. If you had said that any louder someone might’ve heard you,” Art face palmed.He was currently without a mask walking with his sister who kept pouting while getting scolded at by her brother. Due to the damages done to the arena, the contest was cancelled.He didn’t mind because he achieved most of what he participated in the contest for.Right in front of him was a display from his relis showing the amount of APs he had present.// 27,530 //All this was gotten from betting which was smoothly handled by Blake and was his true reason for joining the contest.If he had just managed to eliminate the other three, he would’ve made double of what he had now.Such a shame.But he had a big smile internally nevertheless.Wait! He was more glad about seeing his little sister right?You could say the former body owner had a lovely relationship with his little sister Freda.Only two people in his life showered him with love without a care about his disabilities and th

The moment they saw the grin on Art’s face, they knew something was wrong.The guy with the cigarette was about to take a step back when a fist met him, forcing the cigarette down his throat.He fell to the ground choking profusely as his eyes turned bloodshot red.Without warning, the guy on the couch lunged toward him, throwing a wide punch. Art sidestepped effortlessly, and in one swift motion, his leg shot out to trip the guy, sending him crashing to the floor.“Whoa!” the guy in the ripped armchair yelled, jumping to his feet. “Didn’t even see him move!”“Shut it!” The guy with the toothpick barked. He charged next, aiming a low kick at Art’s shin. Art, however, was already behind him, having casually spun around. His hand shot out, grabbing the boy by the wrist and twisting it behind his back. The boy gasped as pain shot through his arm.“You guys sure you want to keep this up?” Art asked in a disturbingly calm tone.Before the boy could answer, Art raised his arm further up br

After leaving the courtyard, Art returned to his original plan. There were a few people he needed to pay a visit to.He had worked hard up to this point—gaining strength, overcoming the Academy's barriers, and learning runic teleportation, especially since he lacked the attribute required for it.But there was still one last problem, his presence at the Academy. If he didn’t make contact with others within a week, they would surely come looking for him. This had happened several times over the past month during his period of solitude. The staff would visit his room, ask a few questions, and check on his well-being. While it was nice on their part, it had become a nuisance.And then there was the issue of the Relis.If he left the Academy’s premises while still carrying the Relis, it would give away his location if he stayed too close. If he went too far, the Academy would notice the signal loss. To resolve this, he needed two specific attributes to copy using his new skill. But the re

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
