2023-05-26 01:04:37One by one in lines, they placed their hands on the orbs, and with something similar to a pen and paper, Professor Prisca wrote very quickly not even pausing for a second, which was very impressive.
Art’s turn was already drawing closer and at this point, he decided to do nothing.This was mandatory and he wasn’t able to come up with a plausible excuse not to do this.He could only hope for a surprise from the system.The crimson-haired boy placed his hand on the orb with the colour changing to also crimson and the glow was very bright, without a doubt this was a 4th realm talent.This generated some murmuring with some people staring at him in awe.It wasn’t too surprising given he was from a great family.This went on and several people made the orb glow as much or even more than him.Viron and Sil were among them.Viron’s glow was electric blue while Sil’s was silver-ash.Silvers don’t nor

The Successor System Artifact Market
After walking out, he began thinking of where to go next.He had some things to do in solitude back in his room but it would be a waste to go back so early when he could explore the school a little.There were many places to go but there was one which interested him the most, so he decided to go there but he didn’t know if he would gain anything. This place was quite far away from his destination so he predicted 40 minutes.*******************47 minutes later,“7 minutes late huh!” He muttered, glancing around the stores here.This place was where magic artifacts were sold. Students were allowed to possess magic artifacts, from weapons, armor, and combat dresses to accessories and even portions.Yes, magic portions also exist here.He remembered when he was a kid and would easily get excited about things like that.He always wanted to make his own magic portion or see one being made in front of him and that impossible wish back then was now easily obtainable.The thing is portions
The Successor System Two Royals
A few days ago,Art was lying on his bed with a lot of thoughts going through his head and no one would notice but he was also in a conversation with someone. ‘So you’re coming up with a way to leave the academy constantly?’ his guide asked.‘Yes. I’ll be able to learn and all in the academy but leveling up would be difficult.’ Art replied internally.‘I see. I won’t be helping you with a plan but just know this. If you want to do something like that outside the academy then you’ll need to find a way to hide your identity to prevent your actions from being linked back to you.’‘True. I guess I’ll also have to come up with a solution for that.’*****************Present day, [Name: Face Morph Mask][Rank E (upgradable)][Handling: 500/250][Magic description: Once worn and activated, the face of the user would transform into another.

The Successor System The First Activity
The next day arrived and Art was currently heading to class after breakfast at the cafeteria. He wasn’t alone with Viron and Sil behind him.He had turned them down but Viron was stubborn and here they were.“I wonder how class is going to be today.” Viron was excited and not just him, a lot of people felt this way.Art shook his head. If only the children in his former world were as dedicated and enthusiastic towards learning like this then the world would’ve been a better place. He didn’t blame them as the learning here was more thrilling.Well, that could only be said about mage classes.When they got to class Art separated from them and it began shortly after.Professor Stein didn’t talk about much today with only little things to note down and after the short break, it was time for the mage classes.Professor Prisca walked in and everyone was looking forward to what she would teach them today.“Good morning class. I hope you’ve all gotten familiar with your group because today
The Successor System Deliver the crystal
Just like that, 3 matches got concluded.The first match ended with Alphah Team A’s victory, the second was a tie, and the third ended with Charlie Team C’s victory.They all performed excellently and a lot of formidable people came to light. Now, Art’s team was up. They were all standing in their home which was the 4 meters radius circle, waiting for Professor Prisca to give the signal. Art checked out the faces of his teammates and was surprised to see the lilac ice princess.A lot of people grew confident since she was on their team. She ended up joining Alphah group after her queue got distributed. They had earlier changed from their uniforms into clothes more suitable for fighting.It was a skin-tight flexible material so the curves of girls were even more visible.Some boys even lost the purpose of what they came here for. Theirs was white with blue stripes while their opponent was black with red stripes.Just before the signal was given Art received a ‘package’ from t
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

Strang Masked Figure
Everyone’s attention was fixed on the person who had just entered.A black and silver mask covered his face, revealing only his bright yellow eyes. The figure walked forward slowly, his presence impossible to ignore.Not only his face but most of his body was concealed beneath a thick, flowing cloak.Most people had already assumed he was male—and they were right.A strange and mysterious aura radiated from him.It wasn’t the most formidable presence so far, but it was certainly one of the most notable.The light-blue-haired guy, along with other prominent individuals, glanced at him briefly before returning to what they were doing.He could feel the weight of the stares on him, which meant his plan to make a strong first impression had succeeded.Art smiled inwardly as his gaze swept across the room, eventually finding a suitable spot. He made his way there and sat down.He was buzzing with excitement, like a twelve-year-old about to open birthday presents.He hadn’t had any chance t
The Grand Magus Test
Hurried footsteps echoed through a corridor, each one a sharp reminder of how much still needed to be done.The footsteps belonged to a man who barely registered the sound. His mind was far too preoccupied, and his body showed clear signs of exhaustion. As he moved, clipboards levitated around him. With a pen in hand, he scribbled quickly on the one before him, handing it to the assistant trailing behind—who was already weighed down with stacks of papers and documents—before grabbing another. Over and over, he repeated the process.One clipboard reported incomplete formations. Another flagged a lack of security in the northwest. This man was the event overseer of the Grand Magus Test. Today was shaping up to be one of the busiest days of his life.The Grand Magus Test was held every two years, and he had already made the usual preparations.But yesterday, everything changed.Word arrived that, instead of sending representatives, the leaders of the top three guilds were attending in
S-rank Artifact
Garron walked into a smaller door within the room.Art assumed it must be where he kept his most valuable items, as strong waves of mana surged out the moment the door opened—only to weaken once Garron stepped inside. Some kind of safety mechanism, most likely.Garron returned about a minute later, a box in hand.Art's gaze locked onto it.This time, the box was pitch black. Strangely, he couldn’t sense anything from it—but he waited patiently.Garron placed it on a smaller table near the edge of the room."Here. Open it."This was his first high-end project since the death of Rena, the former Third Sword.During its creation, he’d realized just how rusty he’d become over the five years without practice.He’d needed to pause at a crucial point in the crafting process and hone his skills on lesser works before returning to the mask. The knowledge he’d begun to grasp from the book Art had given him made a noticeable difference.Much of the ancient information on craftsmanship and alchem
Formed Pact
"How did he find out?" Art mumbled while chewing on a fruit. Garron had seen right through him before leaving—clearly, a man who'd dealt with plenty of children and teenagers in his life.Night had fallen, and the synchronized chorus of insects performed a gentle orchestral hum across the forest.Art was currently lying on the thick branch of a large tree, his gaze fixed on the dark sky overhead.This tree would serve as his home for the night, as he had decided not to return to Yuh’s family house. At this point, there wasn’t much reason to go back.Maybe they were expecting him tonight, which, disappointing them on his part, wasn’t great—but sometimes, plans got ruined by circumstance.After everything he had learned, wandering around—especially at night—wouldn’t be the safest move for him anymore.He stared down at the fruit in his hand, his expression shifting into a frown. Not long ago, he was indulging in mouth-watering meals and warm beds. Now, he was stuck with fruit.Sure, he
A ticket to revenge
"I'm sorry for your loss. But I think you're making a mistake," Art said firmly. "You decided to throw your talent away because she was killed? Isn't that the same as letting her killer go free?"Garron's face dropped. "You never justified her death. Her killer must be out there, living quite the life.""You think I'm okay with that? There’s nothing I can do!" Garron burst out in a mix of sadness and frustration. "Trying to get revenge would only lead to more death.""And why is that?" Art pressed.Garron let out a sigh. "That armor I made for her, along with the artifacts, were the best I could produce. If her opponent destroyed even those... then anything else I make would be useless.""So, let me get this straight. You stopped crafting because you feel guilty for causing Jira's mother’s death, and you think your skills aren’t good enough to help bring her killer to justice?"Seeing no response, Art shook his head in disappointment. "So if there was a chance to help get rid of the
Wasting potential
Art navigated more carefully as he searched for the blacksmith.He couldn’t afford to reveal his identity. He paid close attention to his surroundings, making sure he wasn’t being followed.So far, nothing seemed out of place.But he knew his abilities in the outside world still weren’t sharp enough to trust completely.It took longer than if he had just asked openly, but he finally found the building the boy described. A massive, bleached dragon skull hung above the door, suspended by chains that glowed faintly with runic symbols. Its eye sockets flickered with soft blue light, as if watching everyone nearby.He glanced around cautiously."That must be it," he muttered, eyeing another building nearby before walking over.Art stopped in front of the building, now confident he’d found the right place.The building was tucked between two larger structures, yet it had a more special presence.Made from polished blackstone and silverwood, the shop had faintly glowing etchings across its s
Mistaken Identity
Art walked back to where he’d left Kira.She immediately ran toward him the moment he came into view.Art could tell that staying alone was still very uncomfortable triggering for her after everything she’d gone through. "Are you alright?" he asked.She simply nodded, and they both left the area together.Art's next destination was to find an artifact blacksmith.Unlike weapon blacksmiths, who worked on creating or recreating weapons and armor, artifact blacksmiths handled other magical items—like the masks he had. Some blacksmiths were skilled enough to excel in both areas.But there was no way he’d find a good blacksmith in this place. He needed to go deeper into the city, to the mage districts—and taking Kira with him wouldn’t be ideal."Umm... Kira. I have to go to the main city. Do you know which teleportation station leads there?"She described the directions for him. "I'm guessing I can't go with you?""Yeah. It won't be very safe for you," he replied. "Would you be okay going
Beneficial Exchange
Under Art's watch, the shop owner loosened the fabric covering the box, exposing its design. The moment it was revealed, an ominous wave of mana surged outward."You might need to protect yourself with mana. It's dangerous," the man warned, raising his gaze to Art.Art wasn’t a newbie in dealings like this. In his former life, he had been exposed to similar situations since childhood. He had learned how to read people—their intentions, their unspoken words.The shop owner was conducting one final test to see if Art was truly worthy of the mask.If Art followed his advice and shielded himself with mana, it would signal that he wasn’t strong enough to naturally endure its aura. That would shatter the illusion of overwhelming strength he had carefully crafted. Someone at A or S-rank wouldn’t even flinch at something of this level, no matter how impressive it was.That said, Art could tell the mask's aura was genuinely dangerous. But he wasn’t about to let this opportunity slip away."Yo
Disguise Hunting
Art freshened up and changed his clothes.Most of the clothes he had become tight so he had to buy new ones.Art's plan on becoming an adventurer would pose a lot of risks if he left his face exposed.He needed to keep his identity hidden. Especially as he was sure that he would make a lot of enemies with his character. So he needed to buy a new mask since he had already used the ones he had back in the academy, and they could be linked back to him.He also decided not to use his Silver abilities. So he had to stick to his earth magic and the others he copied.Art wore a black hood to hide most of his face.Just when he stepped out of the house, he heard Kira's voice."Wait!" She said, walking towards him. "Can I come with you?"He wouldn't have agreed to it, but this was the first time that she wanted to leave the house after her traumatic encounter. So he was forced to accept."You'll have to cover your face with something."She nodded before walking in. Coming out shortly after, w
