The warrior continued to hold his sword as he said "You're not merely decorative right then?" His voice expressed mocking disbelief. Your final form remains a big fat mushroom despite your show of strength.His words served as a deliberate insult to the unresponsive giant.Fighters across other parts of the battlefield kept exchanging their swords with steel weapons alongside the ongoing noises of combat. The Samurai and Ninja continued their lethal battle.A swift slash. A nimble dodge. The cycle repeated.The two warriors fought at lightning speed for what seemed like an endless stretch of time. A sudden understanding hit the Ninja when he moved again because this understanding sent a cold shiver through his entire body.Ninety-three rounds.He had engaged the Samurai in direct combat ninety-three times.Ninety-three times.The Samurai defeated him ninety-three ti

Chapter 44: The Mushroom King's Wrath The wolf-beast refrained from attacking this time. Instead it chose a worse method. It did something much worse.It grabbed.The animal pressed its colossal clawed digits against the war mushroom before clenching down.CRACK!A horrifying noise of torn flesh and broken fungal fibers spread through the battlefield. The war mushroom experienced violent convulsions as its body reacted to the intense pressure.The mage's smirk vanished.The wolf seized the moment to pull the war mushroom from the ground.The war mushroom suffered a violent extraction from its underground position.The beast revealed its entire upper body from the bag as it towered above the mage while its haunting eyes focused on the prey.And then.It bit down.The war mushroom's body received multiple punctures from the jagged fangs which drained its entire substance.The mage staggered back. "What ?"It wasn't just eating it.It was absorbing it.The wolf consumed the war mushroom

Chapter: Chapter 43: The Monster's Wrath 2Chapter 43: The Monster's Wrath 2With a growl, the gunner slammed his weapon against the ground. A surge of magical energy coursed through the machine's core, causing the barrels to glow a searing red. Then, without hesitation he pulled the trigger once more.This time, the bullets weren't just bullets. They burned with arcane energy, turning them into molten projectiles that hissed through the air, melting through stone upon impact.Bo's smirk vanished.She twisted midair, firing again but this time, something was different.A bullet she shot was no ordinary bullet.It shimmered as it spun, cutting through the air unnaturally fast. The moment it made contact with the gunner's bullets, an explosion erupted midair, canceling out the projectiles.The gunner's eyes went wide.Bo landed gracefully on the ground, rolling her shoulders before exhaling another puff of smoke. "Didn't I say you're too slow?"But the battle wasn't over. Not yet.Meanwhile, the sword warrior stood before the pr

The Samurai faced a decision between maintaining his offensive position or shifting to defensive measures to protect himself.The Mushroom Samurai made a defensive move at the very instant.The ninja shifted his blade during its swing to block the approaching daggers which flew toward him. The ninja's swift reaction sent the daggers flying through the air until they buried themselves deep into the rocks.The priestess fell backward in fear while holding her staff because she understood how death had nearly claimed her.The ninja continued his assault without pause.Appearing directly in front of the Samurai, he whispered, "Don't run away. You're my opponent."The combat continued after his statement.The warriors fought with superhuman speed as their weapons produced a brilliant display of their combined skill and power.

Chapter: Chapter 41: The Defenders of the Mushroom KingdomChapter 41: The Defenders of the Mushroom KingdomThe mushroom samurai stepped forward. His blade extended with a curved shape while reflecting the unusual battlefield illumination. His armor displayed a smooth dark finish which mirrored the diamond landscape that surrounded him.His mission was clear.Hold the line. Protect the King.His mind echoed with the commands that had been given to him."Do not allow them to advance.""The King must be protected at all costs.""Fight with your life if you must."He would not fail.None of them would.Their strength matched the enemy's power. Unlike humans they possessed something worth defending.The samurai took a deep breath to maintain his position. His sword served as an extension of his body because his entire being had transformed into the blade.The mushroom gunslinger behind him adjusted his twin pistols by rolling his shoulders. His hands remained steady as he kept his eyes focused while the gun barrels continued to smoke from his pr

Chapter: Chapter 40: The Diamond Guardian 3Chapter 40: The Diamond Guardian 3The blonde warrior's hands shook slightly while his hands remained partially frozen from the diamond mushroom's destructive beam attack. His grip on his sword tightened as his face became stern. The priestess standing next to him showed signs of recovery after using her immense power to protect them from death.But even after all that.They were still here.And worse.They weren't backing down.The sunglasses covering its playful blue eyes emitted a dim light while the creature raised its head to soak in the sun's rays. The creature used this time to recover its power before launching another destructive assault.The warrior struggled to draw breath.His hands… his sword…The transformation had progressed so far that they were unrecognizable.His heart sank with deep terror.Did he possess enough strength to battle anymore?Did this mark the end of his existence?The battlefield became completely still. The battlefield remained silent after the diamo

Nexus: New World
After an unexpected accident cut his life short, Elias found himself reincarnated in a completely different realm, thanks to the whim of a celestial being seeking to right a cosmic mistake. As a form of compensation, the deity granted Elias a second chance in a fantastical land teeming with sorcery, mythical beasts, and blade-wielding warriors.
However, this new world was far from ideal. Trapped in a time resembling Earth's distant past, it lacked modern conveniences—no electricity, no sanitation systems, and certainly none of the technology Elias had once taken for granted.
Luckily, the divine gift came with a twist: a powerful enhancement and a digital companion known as Nexus-1, a hyper-intelligent AI. Armed with this advantage, Elias began reshaping the world around him. Drawing inspiration from the comforts of his former life, and blending it with the limitless potential of magic, he set out to build a civilization more advanced—and more magical—than anything he'd known before.

Chapter: Chapter 45: The Revelation Beneath Moonlight and Lavender SteamChapter 45: The Revelation Beneath Moonlight and Lavender SteamBob and Layla stared wide-eyed at Christabel, then turned their gazes toward Elias, expressions etched with disbelief and awe—like mortals catching a glimpse of a god in disguise. Yet as always, whenever their precocious son pulled the veil from yet another one of his impossible accomplishments, he offered only the most nonchalant of shrugs, as if he’d merely solved a riddle in the dirt with a stick.“It’s just something I began weaving together back when I was five,” Elias murmured, his tone laced with casual indifference. “Apparently, the Lyta soap and enchanted shampoo formulas I developed gained… a bit of popularity among the people.”But even that cryptic explanation wasn’t enough to satisfy the churning curiosity within the hearts of his parents.“Elias…you—you created the Lyta soap and shampoo?” Layla asked, her voice trembling, her expression obscured behind the cascading veil of her golden, moon-touched hair.The

Chapter 44: The True Owner of Lyta“Do you believe this endeavor is even within our reach?” Elias asked, his gaze fixed on the parchment plans hovering in midair, etched with shimmering mana lines.Bob Holloway stroked his beard, his mind turning gears like a seasoned general examining an invasion route. “There are… quite a few obstacles to this, son. First and foremost: funding. An infrastructure of this magnitude—a sewer system that stretches beneath the entire sprawl of Falconridge—would require an ocean of coin and an army of skilled laborers. It is no mere civic project. This is the reconstruction of a city’s foundation.”He paused, then added, “And above all else, we’ll need the cooperation of the Arcanum Spire. Their masons and constructionist mages are the only ones who can channel long-term reinforcement enchantments into city-grade stonework.”Elias raised his hand confidently. “The Arcanum will not be a problem. I’ll speak with the Tower Master myself. I’m sure he can be… p

Chapter: Chapter 43: The Perfect Boy, Crowned in LightChapter 43: The Perfect Boy, Crowned in LightAs the divine luminescence receded like mist under morning sun, Elias found himself once again beneath the vaulted ceiling of the Grand Sanctum of Falconridge. Before him stood the serene marble effigy of the Celestial Being, her expression carved into eternal grace. He blinked, barely readjusting to the terrestrial weight of reality.Then, without warning, a column of radiance descended from the heavens—no, from some vast celestial mechanism far above the dome’s apex—casting a golden ray directly upon Elias’s feet. The church’s aged priest, clad in embroidered vestments of midnight blue and sun-threaded silver, staggered backward as the light engulfed the boy.The hairs on the priest’s neck stood like soldiers at attention. His hands trembled with reverence and terror alike, and his lips struggled to form words in the face of a phenomenon not seen for generations.“In the name of the Celestial Being…” he muttered, clutching the old prayer

Chapter 42 – Harbinger of the Future: Baptism by DivinityThe Celestial Being—her countenance stretching across the heavens like a living constellation—pouted, her astral lips curling in playful dismay. “You’ve forgotten me already, Elias?”A gust of guilt brushed through Elias’s spectral form. “Forgive me… Back then I was nothing but a floating soul—conscious, but untethered.”Her expression softened into a smile that could ignite galaxies. [It’s fine, I suppose. I forgive you. After all, you’ve been quite the source of amusement since your rebirth into this world.]“You’re not mad? I’ve been cheating, you know. Subverting this world's natural growth by importing technology from my previous life…”The goddess laughed, a laugh that rang like wind chimes strung across the stars.[Mad? Hardly. My people have clung so tightly to magic that their progress has flatlined for millennia. You, Elias, are a much-needed fracture in the stasis. A ripple in a pond that has forgotten how to ripple.

Chapter: Chapter 41 – The Rite of Ascendancy: Awakening the Hidden FlameChapter 41 – The Rite of Ascendancy: Awakening the Hidden FlameAfter five long cycles sealed within the veiled grandeur of the Holloway estate, Elias at last found himself journeying toward the heart of Falconridge alongside his progenitors—Bob and Layla. It was not merely a change in scenery, but a symbolic passage, a rite of emergence from the cocooned shadows of youth into the first true crucible of potential.Winter’s pall had draped the world in a silvery hush, cold winds whispering secrets through skeletal trees. Inside the enchanted carriage, warmth pulsed not from mere wood or ember, but from Elias’s own hand—for he had woven a continual Ember Sigil, etched in air and kindled with whispered incantations. The result: a carriage bathed in gentle heat, warding off the bite of winter. Even the Holloway steed, draped in spectral fire spun from Elias’s fingers, trotted without strain, its breath steaming in rhythmic bursts.The crystalline gates of Falconridge rose into view, white

Chapter: Chapter 40: Ascension at the Tenth Year’s ThresholdChapter 40: Ascension at the Tenth Year’s ThresholdElias ascended the grand spiral staircase of the Holloway manor, his boots making barely a whisper against the ancient wood. He carried with him a singular thought: the acquisition of petroleum oil—volumes of it—for the culmination of his greatest invention yet. The promise of electricity, the heartbeat of the old world, pulsed within reach.Knock knock!He rapped once against the towering door to his parents’ chamber, then turned the handle and stepped inside without hesitation, his mind eager and eyes alight. But what greeted him was not a space ready to entertain a child’s engineering fervor. Instead, Bob and Layla stood mid-conversation, their faces drawn with a gravity Elias rarely saw in tandem.Instantly aware of his misstep, Elias halted. “Ah—apologies. I should have waited for your reply.”Bob offered a mild smile, his posture relaxing as he motioned him further in. “No need, son. In fact, we were just about to summon you.”
