Scar, who is radiating a peak Tier 6 aura, let out a deep sigh—he could already feel their days of peace slowly slipping away. He remembered the day he had casually sent his subordinates to retrieve another of their kind who had just evolved into the Mid-rank into the middle regions; he hadn’t expected much at the time. Yet, he never anticipated that the same female would rise so quickly, growing strong enough to surpass him in both power and presence among the pack. The strangest part of it all, however, was her laid-back attitude about it all, despite her strength, she had left the leadership role to him—until recently, when a certain human had been confirmed to have entered the second dimension, Scar didn’t know who this human was to have such a hold on her, but there was one thing he knew for certain—he wanted that man dead. In his eyes, only he was worthy of being her mate, however since his brute strength wasn’t enough to sway her, he had chosen instead to follow her wit

Just when Alec’s golems thought they had overcome a major hurdle by dragging the massive beast back to the ground, something unexpected happened the moment the salamander hit the earth.It twisted its tail, positioning the spiked edge forward, and lashed it like a sword toward the descending Butcher. In an instant, Butcher was cleaved cleanly in two at the waist, a wave of shock rippled through the minds of the other golems—the salamander’s strength was simply overwhelming. Without pausing, it turned sharply toward Oni, who was now within striking range, and lunged with its massive jaws.Its glowing, flame-imbued teeth looked terrifying, radiating the same kind of flaming aura Alec had used to empower his own golems. Oni was forced into a desperate retreat, as he knew taking a direct hit would mean certain destruction. He didn’t even hesitate to abandon his dark scythe, and in the same breath, four additional arms materialized on his side, each wielding a unique blade.The mos

The moment the pill settled in Alec’s stomach, a surge of energy erupted from deep within, rising rapidly toward his head.He was still trying to process the sensation when a new system notification appeared before him, and he swiftly shifted his attention toward it.[+50 Mental Stat Points]Alec’s eyes widened in disbelief, for the longest time now, he had tried everything to raise his mental stats—even slightly—but he had only seen little progress. Now, after taking the mental pill for the first time, he was experiencing more growth than he had ever achieved on his own.However, the effect wasn’t without its price, as the rising energy reached his brain, Alec’s eyes snapped shut, and an intense pain exploded through his head—like a dozen mini detonations going off behind his skull. It felt as though countless needles were stabbing into his brain from every direction.Even with his eyes closed, he began to perceive his surroundings through strange, blue-tinted three-dimensional im

The Grand Royal Arena had been fully decorated, and the battle ring had been upgraded, both the ring and the energy shielding had been reinforced with materials capable of withstanding the might of Tier 7 mages.This was the extent of the royal family’s investment in the showdown between the two academies; they wanted to make a strong impression on the elite mages sent to oversee what was officially called an indoor battle.Despite the significance of the event, the battle was not open to the public. There was no cheering crowd, the only ones allowed were the top officials of the Royal Mage Academy, the War God Mage Academy, and a few high-ranking mages sent by the King of the Northern Kingdom to represent him.Amusingly, though the match hadn’t even officially begun, yet the whole Royal Mage Academy team had already arrived in full force, at the front stood Liam, looking more smug than ever.He was feeling confident—very confident. Having advanced to mid Tier 6 with support of t

“Why would you choose that line-up? Are you trying to hand them the match? If you won’t fight yourself, at least let Beatrice step in,” the dean snapped.Alec only shook his head.“Not necessary, adding Beatrice would be bullying, especially with Pale, Brandon, and Lucas already on the team.” He glanced at the two women nearby.“No offense, ladies—you’re stars. I just didn’t pick you to win this for me; think of it as an experience match.” He leaned back against the bench as the two ladies shrugged.“You expect me to stand by while you throw away our victory?” the Dean pressed.Alec shrugged, turning his blindfolded gaze toward him.“I’m the captain, and I believe no one knows this team’s strength better than I do, even if they’ve improved since our last spar, I can still gauge their limits. Trust Lucas—he’s practically like my second vice-captain.” With that, Alec ended this discussion.He had chosen the roster he wanted against the Royal Mage Academy, now the dean had to decide ei
