“Your head.” He simply replied and suddenly, the Professor vanish in thin air.Jin would lie if he said he was not surprised by the sudden disappearance of the Professor. The Captain face’s turns solemn and his heart starts to beat faster. He can fight toe to toe with the Grandmaster even in the end he would lose, that is where his confidence to take down Professor Dan easily came from. But vanishing in the air in an instant without producing a shadow like an assassin’s profession does is enough for his heart to waver.Without further ado, Jin activated his mana sense followed by Captain. Although the latter is respectably powerful, his mana sense is weaker compared to Jin that has the earth’s affinity.The Captain gritted his teeth upon learning he didn’t sense any presence besides Jin Hale.Opening his eyes, he saw Jin Hale calmly trying to sense the professor. No sense of urgency and desperation on his face.Suddenly, the Captain felt a build-up of aura from his left side coming to
After the commotion, Jin specifically vanished from the crowd and center of attention. He have a lot of things he needed to prepare.While walking the corridor, Jin heard approaching footsteps.“You did good there. I really like seeing you always save the day. Sometimes I wonder if I am deserving to be a King or you. What do you think?”The Crown Prince teases him but Jin didn’t take the bait. If he does, the former might continue this for God knows how long.“Yes, yes. I heard you. What are you going to do with all his possessions and wealth?”The Crown Prince was amused. He didn’t expect Jin to ask this question. Nonetheless, he gives his response.“According to the rules, before the Royal Family can claim the possession of a certain noble, one should undergo a trial first. The wealth and possessions remain intact on the noble’s name until proven guilty. Well, what happened earlier rules out all the laws protecting the Professor. The Royal Family has no right to claim all his wealth
It's a normal Saturday noon. I finished all the things I usually do, and I am currently heading to the grocery store to replenish the food on my fridge. My name is Jin Hale, a normal employee though my office friends always told me that I am a lazy but capable person, which is true. I do all things in the easiest way even it seems weird from the perspective of my surrounding. But I don't care, the important is I finished everything as soon as possible and enjoy the rest of the time and laze around. I arrived at the grocery store and was surprised that it was rowdy. Though I already figure that many people will gather here but it still surprises me. They are falling in line at the front door of the store. I look around and saw a banner with the inscription "50% off for all the goods". That's nice because the food I can buy will be double in quantity. I walk towards the third person standing from the store door. "Yo, good job falling in line and now you're almost near the door." I
I feel something poking on my left cheek. I tried to open my eyes, but I feel it heavy. I felt again the poking on my cheek. "What?! I'm sleeping! Don't disturb me!" I said angrily. If you want to anger a lazy man, go disturb their sleep. "Do you want power?" I open my eyes and start to focus on the source of the sound, but I don't see anything. I tried to feel my hands and rub my eyes, and yet I can't feel my hands. I started to panic and started to look around but all I can see is dark and nothing else. I know it's useless, but I still tried to get up and as expected. I can't even feel my whole body. "Do you want power?" I shift again my gaze to the source but for real, I don't see anything. "Do you want power?" I started to bombard a question. "Who are you and where are you? Why it's dark here. Wait what am I doing here. Ughhh" I feel a throbbing pain in my head "Do you want power?" What? Power? "Answer my question first!" I started to get angry and anxious besides bein
The moment my eyes opened, countless of information bombarded my brain and I started to clearly understand the power and knowledge that the old man was talking about earlier. I get up and carefully inspect my surroundings. Good, I think there's no one around. I feel hungry but I want to try my power first. Doing this will ensure my safety for the time being. According to the knowledge transferred to me. This world is rich with magic energy which is called Mana. The air itself is filled with mana. There are two different mana, one can be absorbed in nature and the other can be granted by a demon king. The latter is called dark mana. Only the demon king can grant mana, no one knows why. Even the memory of an old man who gave me power has no information regarding that matter. I don't want to know either, it's just a hassle. Going back, only 1 out of 100 persons have the capacity to learn and absorbed mana. Humans born with the capacity to learn magic have a magic core inside them.
As expected, houses are made of wood. The plaza and the mayor's house are the exceptions and only a few houses are built in stone. This village is called Yorel as it's located in the great forest of Yorel Elena and Captain Klein along with two soldiers stand on the Plaza and give her speech that the Kingdom has prepared houses for the relocation and there are also jobs waiting for them. The villagers cheers with joy as they heard the news. Elena walks towards our location and asks Castor to lead the direction to the mayor's house. The living area is clean and neat. As expected, the technology of this age is the same as Earth in the Late Modern Era. "Sir Jin, if you are exhausted, please feel free to rest as you are treated as a guest, not a guard." Elena "Thank you but I'm not tired. Honestly, can I ask you a question?" Jin "Sure, I will answer your question," Elena said while smiling "What is the name of your Kingdom?" Jin I'm curious about the name of the kingdom. I already
Morning came, and everyone departed from the village. Though we have a long march ahead since all of us use carriages and horses, we will soon be at our destination. Inside the carriage, I'm currently sitting in front of Elena. "Lady Elena, I've been meaning to ask. May I know besides being a soldier, are there any jobs I can get?" Jin "Hmm, yes. There are a lot of different guilds currently operating in the Narva Kingdom. But the most famous is Adventurers Guild and Merchant Guild." Elena "I see. May I know what adventurers guild do?" Jin "They usually hunt demons." Elena "Since job in Adventurers guild is extremely dangerous. Beginners are usually trained by the guild during their first day. Once they passed the training, they will be officially registered and will be given an ID. They can also pay an extra gold coin to get a mentor. The mentor is usually within the top 50 in the guild, so the pay is considerably high. But decision-wise, it's good since the mentor will come al
After some time, we saw the majestic view of Narva Kingdom. "That is the Narva Kingdom, the capital is called Lithe." Elena happily introduced the kingdom I think the wall surrounding the city is 50 meters high. From here you can see a sturdy gigantic wooden gate on the entrance with two towers on each side which housed many soldiers. One can say it's served as a watchtower. Apparently, there are 3 gates in the kingdom with two towers on each gate that faced three nations surrounding the Kingdom. They are called North Gate faced the Fyn Kingdom, South Gate faced on Ruel Empire and West Gate faced the Vitalis Kingdom. There is no gate that faced the Great Forest of Yorel since the road from there intersected on the road on South Gate. "Mr. Jin, I'm still amazed how you defeat that demon bear in just three seconds," Elena said happily "Lady Elena, you can just call me by my name. No need to address me in that way." Jin awkwardly said. "If that's what you wish, then Jin. With yo
