“Wizard… I mean, Jason. Are you sure there is someone out there?”Wizard Lock used his senses to check the surroundings, but he felt nothing.‘Is he going delusional after his failure? Did I make the wrong choice?’He had seen people lose hope after they failed, and it had a significant impact on wizards compared to the others. Lock knew he should have backed away from the contract when Jason failed.He should have returned the pay and even should have paid back for what Jason taught his student in Rune Craft. However, Lock didn’t do any of this for a reason. The reason was the way Jason treated the people. He took in many orphans from the streets and treated them like humans. This attitude wasn’t the attitude of a high and mighty noble, but a humble man who knew what it was to be poor. Besides, Jason’s failure had nothing to do with his payment, and Jason held his end of the bargain so far. Still, as a rare mercenary among the wizards, Lock should have left Jason the moment he fa
'Cripple and Fool?'Jason smirked when he felt Ethan's power affecting the moisture in the air."Ray of Light!"The first to use the spell was Charlie who directly attacked a Grandmaster with his spell."Argh!"A painful scream erupted as the concentrated light severed an arm of a Grandmaster."Liquid Drain."Another one fell to the ground as if his entire body squished into a ball of pain and flesh. Blood gushed out of the man's skin leaving a body rid of fluids.It was a gory scene, and Jason felt the atmosphere turning cold. Not only their enemies, even the others who saw the gory death felt cold."Argh."The only thing that broke the silence was the painful wail of the Grandmaster with a severed arm."Summon Water Dance!"Ethan was far from done with his assault as a Water Wizard.A blue magic circle expanded by Ethan’s side and an illusionary creature with a changing body. It danced around with its wavy body, waiting for a command.It was a close-combat summon which was hard to k
“Teacher. We can help!” Ethan wanted to get back into the battle, but he didn’t feel well after his Water Dancer died in the flame. “No need. I will teach you how a battle wizard fights!” Jason waved his hand. “Arcane Shield!” Two more Arcane Shields appeared in the middle of the air when the enemy wizards used their spells. A brown magic circle and a red magic circle appeared in midair, and Jason summoned his shields right in front of them even before the spells came to power. Both wizards cancelled their spells and took a wary stance. “Three of you have no chance against me. Well… It won’t make any change even if the other three joined you. You shouldn’t have come here, Gilbert!” Jason shook his head in amusement. He knew Gilbert hated him, but he expected this idiot to keep his head down. However, not only Gilbert joined hands with the Will of God, he even had the guts to come here. “You are too arrogant, Jason. Why aren’t you attacking?” Gilbert expected this battl
The conversation from the carriage looked comical, but the atmosphere on the outside turned tenser with each cheerful word. Jason’s mind was on Amelia and Hanna’s exchange, leaving everyone else in a very uncomfortable situation. He wondered why Amelia was suggesting Hanna pain his face the next time. “Wizard Jason, it seems you want to end this with bloodshed.” “End with blood? Already more than enough people have died. And what makes you think you are strong enough to negotiate with me? Then again, none of that matters.” “What do you mean, Wizard Jason?” “I am going to kill you all just for being you. I am going to wipe out the Will of God.” “You… Kill him!” “Attack!” Garth, who prepared for the entire thing with his trusted sphere, yelled when he heard the command from the otherside. He was in shock as the rest, but he had more experience and a sense of duty. He had to fight even if they lost the entire thing miserably. “Ice Palace!” However, no one got to move before t
“Ethan, Charlie.” Jason called his two students as they started advancing again. Amelia stayed in the carriage with Hanna since they would soon reach their camping spot for the night. “Teacher!” “Did you learn anything during the battle?” Jason wondered if he gave his students any valuable lessons. “Eh… It is best to overpower the enemy with unknown spells.” Jason pulled the reins of his horse and completely turned around to stare at Ethan’s face, “How many unknown spells are available to you, Ethan?” Jason felt he might fall off his steed if he got another similar answer. “I have none, Teacher. But….” Ethan swallowed the latter part of the sentence as he saw Jason’s stern gaze. “It is best to use the most powerful spells….” Charlie also had no clue what he was supposed to learn from the battle, but he didn’t answer as bluntly as Ethan. “Better….” Jason saw many others paying a great amount of attention to their conversation. “First lesson is from those idiots. I
“Is this what he is capable of? No wonder he was so confident about coming back. Hahaha… I told you guys. He is Jason Hope.” His laughter filled the room as Bruce’s voice rose above the excited chatter His words earned smiles from many, their enthusiasm ignited by the stunning display of power they had just witnessed on the screen. However, three individuals from Earth and Xanders, a native of Yuriel, wore expressions filled with heaviness. They knew the truth that lurked behind the facade of Jason’s powers. The Crystal Pulse was on the edge of despair because of recent events and found a glimmer of hope in Jason’s might. “If this is what he is capable of, no wonder he didn’t want to reveal his magic.” Xanders stared at the footage in disbelief, his eyes wide with astonishment. In the execution of two unique spells and the summoning of an otherworldly entity, Jason’s ability was undeniable. Even Xanders, with all his experience, recognized the sheer power displayed. Against such
“You should go.”“Yeah. I should.”Jason didn’t mind Amelia looking at his armband over his shoulder. She seemed to have grown curious after he properly awakened his Magic sphere. “Is that a big amount?”“Hm… Yes. It is….”He retracted his smile when he saw Amelia’s raised eyebrow.Amelia knew what he was truly interested in was the amount of money he saw in the message. “Is that a lot?”Amelia asked the same question again. “A lot? That is twenty million dollars.”He tried to emphasise the amount while keeping his voice low. Hanna was in a sound sleep beside them, and he didn’t want to wake her up. Since they camped outside, they used a single tent as their resting place at night. “Is that a lot?”Amelia had no change in her expression.“Sigh. It is a lot.”Jason wondered if Amelia was truly a princess, or if she was just considering the worth of their currency. Either way, it was obvious she didn’t think much about money. ‘Well… You don’t think about it all.’Amelia handled the
- He did it again! Look at this poor man. The real-life event that happened in front of Jason’s apartment reached the forum in a matter of minutes. Someone uploaded the footage of Kane shaking in fear, while Jason had a pleasant smile on his face. It only took a few seconds for the footage to become the number one topic on the forum.This was the first time someone noticed Jason’s bodyguards being armed guards.- Jason Hope! I am telling you again! This guy is the god of mental trauma. Another player compiled the footage of all the incidents with Sato, Derek, and Kane together and uploaded it to the forum. Even though this had nothing to do with The Endless, Jason was an icon who appeared through The Endless, and his influence in the real world came with The Endless.The news about Jason’s failure in Heaven’s Gate became a secondary topic with the recent development as everyone on Earth started paying attention to the upcoming battle.- Jason’s first real-life fight! Will he win or
