Wizard Of Cosmos 39 - What Are You Doing?
“I guess it is time.”Jason looked at the clock that was running out of time. He was in the last few minutes of time, but there was no difference in the environment in the surrounding area.He placed the book down carefully, trying his best not to rip it apart with his claw-like hands. The rain poured down as usual. Even though the rain was corroding, it had no effect on him anymore. The only thing that worried him about the rain was his clothes which already had too many holes.‘Well, they don’t fit much, anyway.’The mutation in his body did not stop spreading, even after he regained consciousness. He found some canned food and other items left on some buildings, and he avoided eating the monster meat. However, the mutation kept changing his body. ‘Sigh.’He looked at his reflection in the window. Only the area around his left eye looked human, but the pupil was deep green. The rest of his face didn’t look anything like a human, and his body had grown several feet tall. His voice
Wizard Of Cosmos 40 - Eye of Magic
“What are you doing?”Jason slumped back to the ground, feeling powerless. “I….”He didn’t know how to answer her, but seeing a familiar face relieved him. “Beep! Beep!”There was a continuous beeping sound in his mind. ‘What…?’He realised his armband was working on its own, and all four screens were flashing outside.‘Four?’There was an additional blue screen hovering over the armband, and it was constantly flickering according to the rhythm of the beeping. This was the first time he saw this screen.- Greetings, subject JSH0005867.The screen contained a single message, and this was the starting line of it.‘My player ID? Is this from the World Builders?’He didn’t know what to say. There was an unknown creature already making him shiver. The last thing he wanted was attention from the most powerful alien race he ever knew of.- Congratulations on successfully completing the first training session. Although you only gained some inferior knowledge, you have gained some good dev
Wizard Of Cosmos 41 - She Has No Mana
Eye of Magic was not a skill. It was a phenomenon that happened when a wizard opened his magic nodes behind the eyes. As far as Amelia knew, this allowed a wizard to see the mana flow. It was essential for a wizard to be able to disturb the enemy spells. However, these two nodes only opened in wizards who reached above the peak power level in Yuriel. ‘How? Is he belonging to another race? No. That is impossible. The Empire wouldn’t miss such details.’There was another problem for Amelia. If Jason could see Mana, he would notice the problem with her. ‘Should I open my magic nodes? But that is a waste of time….’Out of all the paths to power found by the people of this world, only the path of the wizards was the correct one. Every other path came to a dead-end. The highest limit for a warrior was the so-called Grandmaster level, which Amelia felt was a humiliation to the name itself. ‘He won't be stupid enough to show it, right?’Apparently, Jason would soon have his own secrets,
Wizard Of Cosmos 42 - What did I Even Expect?
‘Sigh. I hope everything goes well.’Jason made his way back to the village almost an hour later. The red clouds in the distance signalled the bright day ahead. The smoke coming from the houses and the various voices filled the air with energy. He took his time to familiarise himself with the effects of his vision of mana. It was a novel feeling that could bring him many advantages; especially when he was up against a wizard.He saw the mana rotating around him when he channelled it through his nodes. Which meant he might see a spell before it was completed, as long as he was fast enough. ‘I should unblock ten more.’He already decided. If he only unblocked eight more magic nodes, he would have enough space to guide the mana to cast the first few spells. However, this came with enormous risk. There was a high chance of someone detecting his two unusual magic nodes. ‘Amelia… Who exactly is she?’He was sure that she also had her own secrets, and he had no reason to think she would e
Wizard Of Cosmos 43 - It Must Be His Food
“Jason, you can really cook!”Logan savoured the taste in satisfaction.He looked across the floor where Jason sat with the little girl Hanna and Amelia.Since the table was too high for Hanna, Jason and Amelia sat on the floor with her. Because of that, he and Dawn also joined them on the floor. ‘Huh? What did I do wrong?’He felt a chilly glance at his side, obviously from Dawn.“Aw!”He looked at Dawn when he felt her elbow on his hip. She was nudging toward Amelia.“Ah… I mean… Teacher’s food is great, too.”He realised Amelia had just taken a glance at him instead. Both Amelia and Jason looked too focused on Hanna to pay any attention to him.‘Why is Jason wearing something like that? Did he do something last night?’He wondered why Jason wore a tight shirt that didn’t match his usual style. ‘Isn’t this how Amelia usually dresses? Why is Jason wearing her clothes?’Not only that, Jason’s pants looked barely any better than rags. He had to admit that Jason had an almost perfec
Wizard Of Cosmos 44 - I Just Want to Play A Game in Peace
“Hehehe….”‘It is so difficult to deal with Children.’Listening to Hanna’s cheerful laughter, Jason wondered how her mood suddenly changed.Hanna cried for a while before stopping. However, after she stopped crying, she was constantly smiling. She even looked a bit shy about crying, and there was no answer to her reason for crying. In the morning they went to the tanner to make a pair of slippers and a pair of shoes for her. Jason also brought a pair of shoes and coarse leather pants for him. Since his cape wasn’t with him during that so-called training, it was in good condition.He had to warm up the horse before going back, so he placed Hanna on the horseback while he walked it around the village.Hanna seemed to be enjoying it a lot. Still, he had to keep his eyes on her because the horse was too tall, and a fall could do some serious damage to the child. ‘Well… With her around, I shouldn’t worry too much.’Amelia had never left Hanna’s side since they came out.…“Are you goi
Wizard Of Cosmos 45 - Devoted Fans
- Jason, we are here.- I am upstairs. Ask the man behind the counter and tell him I asked you to come up.Jason circulated his mana one more time before he stopped. Two days passed with no notable incident.‘I am sure those guys are still outside my apartment. Sigh.’Jason stretched his body by habit, but he didn’t feel stiff at all. He confirmed that there were people following him on Earth during this time. For some reason, they seemed to be keeping their distance, and the only thing he could do was to ignore them. ‘It is so bad to be weak.’He didn’t even have the means to find out who these people were.This wasn’t the only thing he had to deal with. The other thing was the changes in his body, both on Earth and on Yuriel. Back on Earth, he seemed to have an endless amount of endurance. Even though he had gained no notable strength, he was stronger, faster, and more durable. On Yuriel, things looked completely different. ‘Fifteen Magic nodes.’He still couldn’t believe thi
Wizard Of Cosmos 46 - Is This Where I Belong ?
“Your name is Matt, right?”“Yes, Lord Initiate.”Matt struggled to act respectfully, but he couldn’t let go of the feeling of disdain in his heart. Contrary to Julian’s words, he didn't see a notable strength in this young alien. He admitted it was impressive to defeat five guards, but the guards of Forestedge were simply armed peasants. Also, he didn’t have any confidence in these plans against the bandits. ‘Well… I can take care of this one. But… Julian….’They were getting close to one of the weaker bandit camps. This group of bandits were so weak that they didn’t even have an Elite among them. If nothing went wrong, even he could finish off these bandits. Besides, there were ten armed guards with him. Although these were not seasoned guards who had experience in combat, they were enough to hold on against these bandits.‘But what about the others?’Forestedge only had about fifty battle-hardened soldiers, and all of them were supposed to follow this young man for the next battl

299 - Question With No Answer
"No, I’m saying they’re going overboard.""Isn’t that what they always do? This isn’t the first time The Crystal Pulse has attacked players unprovoked.""We have to do something about it—fast."The discussion had devolved into an argument the moment it started. Some of the most famous gamers across the country had gathered in one place, a rare occurrence in itself. The Endless had grown too big to ignore, and even gamers who had avoided it initially had now established themselves in the challenging yet captivating world of the game.Ironically, most of them seemed to have forgotten that The Crystal Pulse was the primary reason players had been able to thrive in The Endless in the first place. It was The Crystal Pulse’s infrastructure and guidance that allowed players to survive in this mercilessly realistic game. Their success had been the beacon that drew many to the VR game considered the hardest ever created. Yet here they were, plotting ways to overthrow the very organization that
298 - She is Awesome
"We move out in an hour!" Logan’s commanding voice echoed through the camp, followed by a notification on their armbands. The message was clear: time to prepare.Gillian gritted her teeth as she tightened the strap around the wound on her arm, the healing paste already numbing the pain. She had a few healing potions tucked away in her pack, but she knew she couldn’t waste them. Supplies were limited, and every soldier had been issued a fixed amount by Crystal Pulse. While the organization would do whatever it took to keep them alive, this was part of their training—learning to manage resources in the heat of battle.'I heard they’re watching us anyway,' Gillian thought, her mind drifting. Since leaving Light Shone, several Grandmasters had vanished from the village, and she suspected they were nearby, keeping a close eye on the mission. The first and most important rule for Crystal Pulse players was not to die, even if respawning in eighteen hours was an option.'Logan is confident en
297 - Cosmic Horror
'His mutation is changing. Or... should I say improving?' Amelia observed Jason closely as the changes in his body unfolded with each passing second. The starry night-like texture on his left side began to expand subtly toward the right, slowly overtaking the black, armour-like skin. However, the transformation seemed restrained, as though the artefact lacked the power to fully support Jason's demand.The process lasted nearly an hour before the dagger, once brimming with ominous energy, dulled completely, its power entirely drained.Jason’s body underwent slight changes—a small part of his pitch-black armour faded, replaced by the cosmic texture of the starry night. Finally, he opened his eyes, feeling a rare sense of relief. The artifact's mutation had been neutralised; it would no longer corrupt anyone or anything. For the first time in a long while, he felt as though a small part of his burden had been lifted.“Well... you can’t go out like that!” Amelia’s voice pulled him from his
296 - Burden
Jason’s gaze returned to the towering demon before him, but he didn’t feel it was worth his attention. His glowing eyes simply stared at the massive figure for a brief moment before he swung his right arm through the air with effortless precision. It was as if he was clawing at the distant figure. A second later, several glowing white lines expanded across the space, moving faster than the eye could track. They reached the demon in an instant, cutting through its form. Behind it, the underground mountain erupted into a cloud of dust, disintegrating as though it had been struck by an invisible force.For a heartbeat, the Greater Demon stood there, frozen in place as if nothing had happened. Then, with a sickening sound, its colossal body crumbled to the ground in pieces, diced cleanly by Jason’s strike.“Screech!” A high-pitched wail echoed across the cavern as panicked creatures scattered, their movements erratic and mindless in the wake of their apex predator’s death. Even the remai
295 - Daddy is So Strong
"Shit," Amelia cursed under her breath as she deflected blow after blow, desperately trying to protect Jason from the relentless attacks.It wasn’t just her previous enemies; there was another massive threat looming on the horizon. She could feel the presence of a greater demon, its oppressive aura emanating from afar, finally ready to make its move.'I can't take on this thing,' she thought, parrying another strike aimed at her.She didn't have the luxury of time to grab Jason and flee. Besides, with the monstrous force approaching, running seemed pointless. This new threat was undoubtedly stronger than her.'If only he can fight,' she lamented, her grip tightening around her sword. She couldn't even afford a glance at Jason to check if he was still holding on. All she could hear were his painful grunts, each one a stab to her focus.…"Daddy, Daddy, no, I have to go!" Hanna cried out, trying to rush toward the mine entrance.Before she could take another step, Nocturne leapt from her
294 - Daddy is Hurt
'This is not going to end well.'Jason barely caught his breath as he hid behind a stone column, narrowly evading the swing of a giant demon's sword. He felt a growing sense of helplessness as his spells failed to inflict any significant damage on these monstrous enemies. Surprisingly, his Arcane Spawns managed to restrain one of the demons temporarily. However, the limitation was clear—he could only summon three Arcane Spawns at a time, and that number was far from enough to take down even a single demon.'I don't think Amelia can hold on much longer.'While Jason was barely managing against a single demon, Amelia was handling all five of the remaining demons on her own. She moved with incredible agility, skillfully evading the swords and other weapons targeting her, striking back whenever she saw an opening. Her blade flashed, leaving shallow cuts on the demons’ thick skin, but it was clear that even with her skill, she was being overwhelmed. Five demons were far more than she cou
293 - What Are We Going To Do About Them?
"Hanna, you have to be good and stay here, alright?""Alright, Daddy," Hanna responded, her voice tinged with sadness, but she kept her composure.'Hanna is a big girl. I can't cry. Mommy and Daddy promised to come back,' she reminded herself, trying to act brave.Floating behind her, Nocturne extended its tentacles, imitating the action of wiping away tears as if to comfort Hanna in its own eerie way."No, Hanna is not crying, Little Cuttlefish," Hanna tried to argue with Nocturne, waving her tiny fist cutely at the eldritch horror."Make sure everything is okay." Jason gave Hanna a quick peck on the forehead before turning to Samson and Butch."We will handle things while you are gone, Sir Jason," Butch assured him. Despite not being from Earth, he had learned to mimic Samson when addressing Jason. Many of the bodyguards, even those from Yuriel, had learned to act properly under Samson's guidance.Jason's gaze shifted to Dane, who was responsible for maintaining the outer perimete
292 - Normal Response
“Eh….”Hanna turned her head around as she felt a familiar ominous feeling. “What is it, Hanna?”“Little Cuttlefish is here, Mommy.”She didn’t know where it was, but she felt its presence. A moment later, a ripple appeared near them and a small slit expanded in midair. An eerie dark feeling seeped out of it as several small tentacles slipped into their world. “Whee!”Nocturne floated toward Hanna making a cheerful noise. “Hiss.”Ancient Wraith hissed at the foreign creature. “Grr….”Nyx growled at the creature in anger, but it didn’t try to attack it. First, Nocturne was Jason’s pet. Second, her little master had no anger toward this thing. However, Nyx knew that the horrible disease had the same scent as this creature. It was a dangerous and foreign feeling that made them uncomfortable. “Gu! Gu!”Nocturne immediately released a defensive sound and hid behind Amelia, trying to protect itself. “Don’t harm Little Cuttlefish. It is not his fault.”Hanna gently patted Nyx’s head
291 - How Am I Supposed TO Find Them?
“No! I will not let you go in.”Brood’s voice was sharp and loud, and Jason felt the surrounding air vibrate with her voice. “It is already spreading. Send out one of your Drones and check the caves to the north. There is a crack.”Jason didn’t care about Brood’s rant at the moment. He was much stronger than before. Even if he failed to defeat Brood, he was confident enough to survive against her and escape. Besides, Amelia should be already on her way here. “But… But… This is the only place I am supposed to protect. I… I didn’t let anything escape.”Brood’s voice broke a little as she tried to suppress the agitation. “Check it out. I can feel the monsters roaming beneath those cracks, and it won’t be long before they escape.”“But….”“There is no time. She is coming, and she is angry. So check it out. We will go in there and finish it, Brood. It doesn’t matter if you like it or not. It is too dangerous and we are going to end whatever is down there.”Jason had no idea what kind o
