Time passed away and before I knew it five days had passed after my date with Airis. Once that whole thing was finished I began reading this book. I'm currently inside the workshop, needless to say, I was also checking up on Mc kun's condition
[This guy is extraordinary isn't he!!? His recovery is a little faster than your Beast subordinate. Hey, answer me!!! Don't ignore me im talking to you right this instant!]
'What do you expect from the Main character? I can't believe he got that skill so earlier compared to the timeline of the book. I guess his deity rewarded him after withstanding Deniro's attack. Aside from him, I've heard that he had an accomplice when he fought against Hugo,'

[For a deity to give something as powerful as the Inhuman regeneration I wonder if I know that person]
'The monarch of destruction I remember writing him as the edgiest deity, his name was known throughout the world. He was a powerful individual who single-handedly defeated an army,'
'His wicked nature gave him a ton of enemies, and his techniques were revered as the very best for their superiority to any kind of style. Lastly, his a cold-blooded killer that encourages Hugo who's a pacifist from the start of the story. I tried drawing him as a pacifist since he lived in a world where there's no such conflict,'
"Morris, do you have any more questions aside from the robed figures I fought with?" Hugo stands up when his cast was finally removed from his limbs
"There's nothing else, I just wanted to see how you guys fight," He replied to Hugo's answer and he proceeds in reading his book
"Hugo, do you know that Morris is an advanced magician? I bet you my tokens he's gonna be a tough one to beat... I'm not even taunting you, he's slippery as an eel and punches as hard as a gorilla," Since the opportunity presents itself, Gale mentioned his capabilities after he brutally suffered a loss on their spar
'Wow! Way to keep it a secret jackass!!! Since it's unavoidable. I should say there are a ton of magicians in the world of trials and each of them has some unique way of casting their spells. We have the Chanter who chants the lines to cast a spell, Defier those people that put their scientific knowledge to create an image,'
'Rune magicians who're the ones who wrote a circle to cast a spell. Advanced magician mages can cast a spell with only a few lines of their spell chant. Now to my real category 'Chantless' I didn't want my worth to be leaked to their team so I tricked them by acting like I'm an Advanced class. As much as possible I don't want to have any connection with these nutjobs,'
[Hugo you should fight him!!? An Advance magician close to your age, it's like my time I remember this 'know-at-all' who's engrossed in magic and he even beat me even after I used all of my power. I'm not asking you to kill him, just use some of your strength... You need to learn how to fight any opponent that comes your way]
'What!!? The monarch of destruction was the strongest deity in the game, don't tell me that the creator of that game was intending to create a new story. Aside from that a mysterious deity that I haven't heard of before... This makes me wonder If Morris's deity is the Trickster. It thought it was because of his copies or is it an unknown deity?'
"A little brawl won't hurt, I'll fight you but I have a condition that you need to follow... No matter what you can't leave this circle am I clear? Construct minor change," Morris created a circle with his Earth array and he timed it with his words
[It looks like we didn't have to persuade this person at all, prepare yourself, Hugo! Remember to be serious even if this is a spar you don't know what can happen. I best remind you that a magician is something that every swordsman hates to be matched,'
[System: The rank of your skill [Earth array] has risen from F ->E!!! Its range of effect has increased and construction speed has increased]
"Would you look at that it seems I've got an upgrade, Mana amplification, Terrain manipulation, construct pillars," Morris made the area tremble by applying a ton of Mana not a second had passed the area went back to its natural state before he picks his book and continued reading
"Hugo you need to move!?" Gale warned Hugo just in time before a pillar emerged beneath his feet. Its power wasn't threatening Hugo's existence, but his opponent made sure its enough to send anyone away from the circle
"Gale has a point! These pillars will attack anything that I pointed my attention to. No matter what you do, this will lock onto you in three, two, one!" Morris flipped over another page of his book while he sends a ton of pillars toward his opponent
[You're not gonna fight him?]
'Hugo might be the Protagonist of this story, but I know him with every fiber of his being. No matter how strong he'll become when he fully grows. A human is still a human they're not gods they have a weakness, and for him, it's distance. He's an all-rounder for sure. But how can he win a fight if he can't reach his enemy?'
The pillars, won't stop rising until they hit their mark. When he dodges one of them Hugo triggers another in its place, until he's placed into a position where his movements became predictable. No matter what he did he'll always be countered. He soon realizes that within this restricted circle Morris was untouchable. And before he takes another step, he activated his trump card
[System: The player Hugo Miller has activated the skill called [Foresight]
[Foresight]: Inside a limited area near your body, you can see its future outcomes before they were to occur]
Absent-minded from the fight Morris neglected his opponent, which overcame his formation. He predicted the next pillar before it appeared while Hugo used them as his stepping stone to get closer to his opponent. Finally, he reached his goal
But in this short amount of time which amounts to seconds, the outcome changed to an unexpected turn. The outcome he saw changed instead of a glorious victory he's pinned to the ground. When his vision ended the target he struck was revealed to be a mirage in place of his opponent. His real enemy waited until he let his guard which led to his demise and his abdomen was struck by his knee
[How did he do that? A magician can't be this agile!!!?]
"What a great match you shouldn't have relied solely on your foresight just because you've gotten close. If this was a life and death situation, who knows it might have been your end... I'm done healing you. I'm gonna go back to my room," He fled the scene right after he tended to Hugo's wounds
On his way through the long and complicated area of the workshop, Morris leaned over a wall and closed his eyes. He remembers hearing a voice that echoed throughout his mind to the point that he acted without his judgment. His boy moved when he heard the voice that stimulated him to the point of triggering his survival instincts
([Dodge!!!])
[What's the matter?]
"Did you hear that voice?" Morris gained a headache after his stimulation by the mysterious voice
[What voice!? I didn't hear anything... Don't tell me, are you on drugs!!!?]
"The fuck!!? What do you take me for jackass!!! Of course im, not a druggie,"
'There's no way that it's a deity? Even if their authority can be compared with Sage or the Monarch... No deity can invade a person's mind, I wonder if I got cursed or if it was an item that was used on me. Every possibility that I could think of has a loophole, there's not a single thing that I could use to piece it with my affair,'
[Should I ask a Gm to scan your body?]
"Never mind... You might be rough, it must have been my imagination. In the meantime, I'll finish reading this book," After his headache subsided he continued his path toward his room
'There's a little difference between potion brewery and alchemy but they have this one principle they must follow for its success. They both need to pour a ton of mana into a single experiment. Now, this gave me an idea of how they get a ton of mana supply this could be pieced together with the missing people I've heard about. Those people kidnapped and his followers who threw away their lives... I wonder what he's going to do with all of this mana? And for what reason?'
He enters a dark and suffocating room that was disturbing to the point where he can't move a single inch. He was frightened by his situation and he forced his stiff and motionless body to move when he heard a noise getting closer and closer. When it reaches its highest volume the noise became clearer and lower until it sounded like a voice calling out to him
([Proceed as you are now the choices that you've made aren't going to dictate your life they'll only severely affect the lives of others. Whether it will be positive or disastrous, be sure to check your changes and be prepared for the consequences of your action. You're not from around here, I wonder if you have what it takes to change this world? For now, it's just a mere guess, however, once you've obtained a certain item you'll know your purpose])
He woke up in a cold sweat completely bewildered by his situation. For instance, all of the things he saw were nothing but a dream. His room was never dark nor was it suffocating, all of the things he saw were simply his imagination
'I collapsed on the floor? Was it the after-effects of that voice? I don't have a clue about its origin!? Proceed with what im doing that's a tough one. I'm not sure what impact I've made on this world, nor will I be alive after all of my choices are finished,'
