“Hm? A human?” The older man looked into the forest. It was an old man working on a stone sculpture. His work was almost complete as he carved a perfect human figure from a boulder. The sculpture looked perfect, almost too perfect to be true. It was an open patch in the forest, and the surroundings had many similar sculptures of different creatures. All the stone sculptures looked at a near-perfect level of detail, and the old man seemed to have carved them over the years. “Doesn’t matter. I will wait for you to be here, anyway.” He turned his attention toward the sculpture, but it was only momentarily. “Is that… Magic?” The older man turned his body toward the direction Jason was coming from. His eyes remained dull as before, and his tone didn’t change. It was as if the man himself had no emotions. However, his movements showed signs of wariness. “Wind and Fire. He is commanding the elements of two domains.” Humans were the only intelligent race that didn’t belong to a part
“Is that truly a village? I am not sure anymore.”Jason didn’t feel like going to what he saw as a village.He saw no movements except for some smoke coming out of chimneys. After what happened with the odd old man, Jason didn’t want to get into any more trouble. He felt it was afternoon by the sun's position, but he wasn’t sure about the time.“There are animals, but why do they all look terrified?”The village looked similar to the villages in Yuriel. Actually, it looked similar to Light Shone as the village bordered the forest he came from. The houses were made of wood, clay, and stones, and he didn’t see any modern technologies in the surroundings. He felt this was a world of magic similar to the Yuriel, but he wasn’t keen on finding out while he felt vulnerable. ‘There was no change after that weird incident, but it is better to be careful. And this is a bit creepy.’The animals in the village seemed to be terrified of something, and he saw some panicked dogs, hens, and cows. Al
‘Why isn’t my slave responding?’The little creature looked around in confusion. He followed one of their elders to the other dimension in secrecy, which was his biggest mistake. Not only did the elder get into a fight with two powerful monsters, but it even got him injured. Luckily, he was too small for the gigantic snake to notice, but the little one still received critical damage from the lightning storm. Luckily, he escaped the relentless assault of the two monsters. However, he knew he had no chance of survival until that creature came along.‘A human with the power of our dimension. That stupid elder.’Their kin could easily be the apex predators of the dark dimension, but there was one thing their kin lacked; intelligence.They could gain knowledge by extracting the emotions and thoughts of weaker creatures of the other dimensions.The elder he followed needed to be more smart to confront two powerful monsters. Their lack of intelligence and emotion overshadowed their advanta
‘Seriously?’There could be many reasons for no stars in the sky, but Jason felt all the reasons he could think of made matters more complicated. Either this world had a problem, which was possible, or this world was truly alone in this universe. The other possibility he could think of was that this entire universe was dying. He could not think of any other reasons to explain this empty sky. ‘This doesn’t fit right. I should focus on solving my problem and getting out of here.’However, Jason couldn’t forget the fascinating spells he saw from the Dragon and the Snake. ‘Sigh. I don’t think I can sleep. And I should stay here till dawn.’Jason listened to the animals' noises echoing through the forest at night. It seemed like a set of animals was taking over the night of this world.…“Howl!”A pack of hounds with burning bodies with lava-coloured skin ran below the tree, and Jason heard a loud screech from the distance. A herd of Unicorns ran through the distant grasslands as their
‘I never thought learning a language would be this difficult.’His armband did nothing to help; the only way he could learn was by the knowledge Nocturne stole from humans. The knowledge was incomplete since another adult male stole human memories before Nocturne. Even though this process didn’t steal memories permanently, humans took time to recover their minds. Jason tried his best to organise his knowledge, and he felt the usefulness of the armband. ‘Should I summon him and steal a memory of a human?’Jason hid near the edge of the village, wondering if he should kidnap someone to learn their language.Since he left the resting place at dawn, this was the third village Jason had come into contact with since dawn. The surroundings turned much clearer, and the reads became somewhat crowded. It was obvious that he was finally stepping into the civilised world. ‘And… what are you?’He gently tapped the Magic bag, but there was no response. The weird egg had a telepathic ability t
“So, what are you guys doing here?”“I am not going to tell you.”“And what are you not going to tell me?”“I am not going to tell you we are here to gather information about the lockdown.”“Sigh….”Jason suddenly felt tired of questioning this honest fool. Even though he easily got all the answers he needed, they weren’t as straight as they should be. ‘This guy is a complete moron. Why did this organisation send someone like him for scouting?’Jason admitted these two brothers did a good job staying away from the detection magic, but one of them was a total disaster to any undercover operation. “Why did you even bring this guy?”He finally looked at the quiet one. It was obvious the silent twin was furious about his brother.“Brother… Don’t tell him they let me out because I can detect magic….”“Really?”Jason looked at the half-witted man in complete disbelief.“Are you a wizard?”“I am not going to tell you.”“Sigh. I am going to knock him out.”Jason looked at the man at the e
“The Endless? Isn’t that the name of the game? Is it a coincidence or is there a meaning behind it?” Jason whispered in confusion. He had never heard of magical spheres existing within the real world, and he had never heard about making a contract to become a wizard. Besides, he thought this world had knowledge about breaking the genetic shackles. Instead, he seemed to be in a world restricted by the genetic shackles. Also, Jason felt it was weird for this world to be called The Endless. “Why is this world called The Endless?” “Eh?” He saw the smarter twin giving him another weird look. However, the man worried about his brother whose life was hanging at the point of the sharp ice. “Because… Because this world has no end?” “No end? You better explain that to me.” Jason knew his question was raising the suspicion, but he had no choice. If there was no other choice, he might have to end the life of these two to keep his identity a secret. “There… There is no end to our wor
‘What kind of a world is this?’Jason sat on a rock nearby, ignoring the two brothers. This world, The Endless, was a world that truly had no known end. They were currently in the neutral zone where no Magic Domain had their effect. The reason for the high-alert situation in this country was a prophecy foretold.According to the prophecy, the world would end the day a human broke their natural limit of power. The reason for this sudden reaction was the appearance of a person who broke their limit. Countries all around the world were looking for this man to hand him over to the magical beasts of various domains, and some were plotting to kill the person.‘I do have two extra magic nodes, but who noticed them? Was it that old man? Could it be me, or is it someone else?’He thought about the old man he met the other day. ‘But I didn't break the limit, right?’Jason tried to circulate his Mana as usual. There was no way he would have achieved some sudden improvements overnight. ‘Huh?
