The Successor System Over Powered Dad and Mana Skills
“Dad, it’s good to see you,” Art voiced out and silence reigned for the next one minute.“Arty!” His father exclaimed giving him a big hug. Somehow, his father covered the distance between them in an instant.“I missed you so much. I told you that you didn’t need to go for that training but you’ve always been stubborn,” his father sobbed.Art didn’t resist the hug, he knew that this was going to happen and resistance was futile.His father finally broke the hug and stared at him. “I don’t know what to say about your recovery. You don’t know how happy I am. Remember when we played that little game? What was it you told me again…..” his father seemed to be trying hard to remember. “That you would bare witness to the day I surpass you.” Art knew it, this was a test to see if he was actually the one.There was no way anyone else would know what they discussed that day and the memory was put under some sort of seal making it almost impossible for telepaths to gain that information.What
The Successor System Beautiful Scenery
Art was seated on the bed of his room with a big smile while looking at the things also laying with him which had just been delivered.They were orb shaped with different colours.Yes, these were E and F-rank mana cores.This was the first request he made to his father. He was still lacking magically than them and from using attributes to controlling his true weapon, he needed to improve.So he asked his father for a mixture of E and F-rank mana cores numbering up to a hundred.If he was to ask for D-rank cores or more than that amount, he would be forced to state his reason for needing them and even his father would look at him differently if he found out that he could drain mana from objects. Besides, from what his guide had told him, he doubted that he would be able to drain from anything D-rank and above. He would be using this for now.With a thought, his status appeared before him. [Name: Art Von Silver][Race: Human][Level: 61][Ascension: 1][EXP: 2300/2500][HP: 82/100][
The Successor System Arriving at the Royal Academy
Three days went quickly and Art made the most he could out of it. At this point, he had drained mana from half of the mana cores he had received from his father. So his mana points had tripled.They were to leave for the Royal Academy today, so he had a few pieces of luggage with him.This was just for show as he could put all his belongings in his inventory, but it would be suspicious if he just went empty-handed and suddenly brought out things that weren’t provided by the school without having a spatial ring.Spatial storage devices were also present in this world but his inventory was still better.They were to head to a part of the building which contained teleportation circles used to go in and out of the mansion and he was sure to see familiar faces.The location wasn’t too far away from his room, so it only took him about 20 minutes to arrive.He walked into the large room which had multiple teleportation circles. Some teleportation circles which were for general use could be
The Successor System A Suicide Quest and Observing more
At first, he thought that his system was trying to make him the valedictorian, which he didn’t mind because if he worked hard like any other normal student he could achieve it.But then he realized something.His quest didn’t tell him to become the strongest student, it was to become the strongest mage.So within these 8 months, he was expected to surpass both students and staff alike which includes final years, professors, guards, etc.He looked below.[Punishment: ???]This was written in blood read, so it was either death or something close to it.Art couldn’t help but let out a bitter chuckle.‘System, you’re trying to kill me right? And my dear guide, what do you have to say about this?’[…………]‘............’‘So that’s how it is huh?’ he shook his head before focusing on the task at hand.He exited the large hall and when his gaze fell on the outside of the academy, he was pleased.“As expected from the Royal Academy.”The environment was beautified with plants like shrubs and g
The Successor System Gaining Information and a White Feather
The boy looked to be about 13 years old and just by first glance anyone could tell that he was sick but something about his sickness seemed familiar.“Is he family?”The old woman looked at the boy before answering. "Not really. I found him lying on the street and decided to take him in.”“And he’s been with his sickness since you found him?” “Yes.”“How long has that been?”“A little over a year.”After hearing her last reply he walked closer to the boy, kneeling beside him.The house wasn’t big in the first place with the total amount of rooms being just 3 and there weren’t doors covering the rooms except for the main entrance which was why he sighted the boy immediately after stepping in.She watched as Art began to observe him and after some minutes he came up with several theories but the most plausible was that this boy had a similar sickness to the kind he previously had.Art’s sickness was that his core was too strong for his normal body, so it ended up eating his body away
The Successor System Welcome Speech and Announcement
It took him 15 minutes to get back with only 7 minutes left before the welcome announcement.It was going to be held in the large hall which he stood in front of and after walking in over a thousand seats came into view along with the large stage in front of them.Many people were already present, some had begun familiarizing themselves with others. He quietly walked to a seat that had fewer people around before taking it. ‘Two minutes left,' he closed his eyes thinking more about the old woman and the strange white feather. She didn’t give him much to go on with and he was hesitant on collecting the feather, but his curiosity got the better of him and now it ended up in his inventory.He decided to research more about it later but he would have to do it carefully because there was still a lot of mystery behind it. When he used his inspect skill on it, the feather was a B-rank artifact which was high and powerful but he doubted that it would cause a lot of people to come after him
The Successor System Lilac Ice Queen
Since the boys and girls section were at different areas he had to separate from Iris.The bracelet worked similarly to the one given to them during the contest so he headed towards the building his room was located.On his way there he sighted two people meters away in a hot argument and it seemed that words weren’t satisfying them any longer.“So soon. I guess things are going to get very…. Exciting here.” Art muttered.There were some onlookers but he wasn’t planning on wasting time here as he needed to read that rule and guidebook urgently to get a better grasp of the situation.“What the hell did you say?!” one of the boys in the argument with brown hair roared.“I thought the only thing pea-sized was your core but now I see your brain isn’t left out,” the other jeered loudly and not being able to take it any longer the brown-haired boy punched out but that was not all, as a stream of flame shot out from his hand.The other boy dodged the flames and now it was headed for a certai
The Successor System Roommates
When he saw this at first he didn't want to jump to conclusions but after reading the book there was no doubt about it. He was one of the two missing Elites during the announcement. He opened his palm just like before and uttered two words. “Display rank.”A magical projection of two numbers hovered above his hand. [ 20 ]This was the work of the bracelet. He stared at it for some time wondering how he got such a position and the most probable conclusion he could come up with, was that the current ranking was based on the Academy’s evaluation before admitting them into the school.This would mean that they were under observation from the Royal Academy before even becoming students.In the contest, even though Beatrix, Sil, and Iris had the potential to perform better, they were not given that opportunity, so at the end of the day, the two top performers were him and Lidia because of their last clash. Most likely, they had the highest rank among the six of them.This was just a spe

Grand Magus Test III
A frown crept onto Art’s face after the hot feeling in his hands left. [Energy Drain Completed] [+10 stat points]It was less than he had expected.Well, since we used little to no effort taking down the beast, expecting more would just be greedy.He held his head as a brief wave of dizziness washed over him before quickly fading. It was the usual side effect, though noticeably weaker than the first time. Probably because he hadn’t absorbed much this time.The beast lay still on the ground, even after Art removed his hand from its head. It was alive—but paralyzed. Completely unable to move.That was the effect of the Energy Drain skill. Victims became husks—empty vessels. And even now, Art didn’t know how long the paralysis would last… or if it would ever fade at all.With one swift motion, he ended the beast’s life and secured the EXP.The number on his shoulder—his rank—rose slightly, and new digits began to appear. A tally of his total points earned. Since he had only one D-rank
Grand Magus Test II
Lowering his mana aura, Art walked through the forest, which was indeed less dense than the one used during the raid.He didn’t want to scare off any beasts by giving off too much presence, which was why he suppressed it. Deep down, he also hoped some contestants would underestimate him enough to attack first. He didn’t want to go around starting fights as he had to build and mold his reputation as an adventurer, and it all began here.So far, he hadn’t encountered any beasts or contestants, nor had he found another ribbon.It was safe to assume the arena was large enough to accommodate all participants without forced conflict. A smart design choice.His vision was currently amplified by the third ability of his mask. Although it was draining his mana, he wasn’t bothered—thanks to the mask, he had a lot more mana than usual.With his current mana points, he could use the enhanced vision for three straight days before running out—assuming he didn’t recover any along the way. His stamin
Grand Magus Test
"ROOOAARRRRR!!!!!!!!!" The crowd erupted in excitement as the test broadcast began. "Ladies and gentlemen!" the commentator's voice echoed. "Welcome to the 42nd Grand Magus Test! The contestants have all been teleported to the new test arena. This is the first main test, structured to assess their performance as individuals..." He proceeded to give a brief explanation of their objectives, which only heightened the crowd’s anticipation. --- Somewhere within the city... A group of four men dressed in black and grey cloaks, their faces mostly concealed, stood silently. In front of them was a display showing the test. "We went through a lot of trouble creating a fake guild just to participate in the recruitment for this test. What if we don't find anyone suitable, or none of them have what we're looking for?" one of them asked. "Worry not, I believe one of them will possess the spark we need," another replied calmly. "They might be criticized by the world for their nature, but we
Not just a race
"What? Did he just say a race?""I think so." Murmurs filled the room as some participants tried to wrap their heads around what they’d just heard.A lean boy with spiky black hair and sharp blue eyes looked down at his legs, which were covered with a hard yet flexible black material—engineered specifically to enhance and protect them during sudden bursts of speed caused by his attribute.A smirk formed on his face.'This is it. My time has come.'Meanwhile, another boy stared down at his large, protruding belly. “I’m cooked,” he muttered.Art frowned beneath the black-silver mask. Those closest to him subtly shifted away, sensing the slight but menacing aura that radiated from him.He hadn’t realized that his mana aura was slowly being affected by the mask. Others were very wary of him.Their goal here was simple: perform well enough to get noticed and chosen by a good guild. This wasn’t a deathmatch, so the best course was to avoid serious threats—unless forced.Well, that was how
Guild leaders
Two of the four seated individuals turned their heads as Tera proceeded to the last empty chair in the room. Her escort just behind her.One of them was a man who looked to be in his late thirties. He had short brown hair and brown eyes behind rectangular transparent glasses. This was Zyn, leader of the Seven Blades Guild.The other was a woman with long, spiky black hair and crimson eyes.The three top guild leaders were the only Rowans in this city, so the remaining two Rowans present were from other places.The chairs were crafted from top-grade materials—durable enough to withstand any unexpected outbursts from powerful figures like them, while maintaining comfort and a pristine appearance.Tera’s chair was the only white one among them; the rest were grey.She hadn’t requested this, but it had been arranged regardless to ensure her utmost comfort—especially since Fedinar knew she had some... particular preferences."Tera, so you actually came. I've missed talking to you. We didn'
The Apostle of Light.
A/N: Check the ending of the chapter for the meaning of any word with an (*)---Everyone waited anxiously for the test to begin. It felt natural to expect that this year's would turn out better than the tests of the past few years.Then it happened—a loud, echoing sound reverberated through the air, signaling the arrival of someone important. Very important.Only a select few warranted that kind of announcement.The top guild leaders.Courtis—the leader of the Arcane Guild.Zyn—the master of the Seven Blades.Tera—the renowned leader of The Ashen Saints.These figures were like kings in this vast city of Guilds. Within this territory, no one but the Royal Family held more authority. Not even the Great Families.In fact, this wasn’t a good place for Great Family members to visit freely. Here, they were vulnerable—this city was the one place where enemies could hunt them down with minimal consequences.Not because the top guilds were openly hostile—though exceptions existed—but because
Mind Fortitude Test
"You just need to pass through and walk to the end of the passage. Feel free to go through at your own pace," the man gestured smoothly with his final statement.For the first few seconds, nobody moved. They all simply kept staring at the doorway. All with similar thoughts. Everyone was cautious and wary*Step**Step**Step*Breaking the silence, the young man with long sky-blue hair began walking forward. His calm, dignified air was almost tangible, a quiet confidence clinging to him as he advanced toward the doorway.Whether it was due to superiority in age, experience, or sheer faith in his abilities, no one could quite tell what gave him such poise."Bunch of cowards," came a scoffing voice as another contestant, a girl with short, straight red hair from the Vampir family, strode out as well, her sharp eyes sweeping across the frozen crowd.The blue-haired young man was the first to pass through. All eyes sharpened, watching to notice the slightest hint or change.As he passed, it
Strang Masked Figure
Everyone’s attention was fixed on the person who had just entered.A black and silver mask covered his face, revealing only his bright yellow eyes. The figure walked forward slowly, his presence impossible to ignore.Not only his face but most of his body was concealed beneath a thick, flowing cloak.Most people had already assumed he was male—and they were right.A strange and mysterious aura radiated from him.It wasn’t the most formidable presence so far, but it was certainly one of the most notable.The light-blue-haired guy, along with other prominent individuals, glanced at him briefly before returning to what they were doing.He could feel the weight of the stares on him, which meant his plan to make a strong first impression had succeeded.Art smiled inwardly as his gaze swept across the room, eventually finding a suitable spot. He made his way there and sat down.He was buzzing with excitement, like a twelve-year-old about to open birthday presents.He hadn’t had any chance t
The Grand Magus Test
Hurried footsteps echoed through a corridor, each one a sharp reminder of how much still needed to be done.The footsteps belonged to a man who barely registered the sound. His mind was far too preoccupied, and his body showed clear signs of exhaustion. As he moved, clipboards levitated around him. With a pen in hand, he scribbled quickly on the one before him, handing it to the assistant trailing behind—who was already weighed down with stacks of papers and documents—before grabbing another. Over and over, he repeated the process.One clipboard reported incomplete formations. Another flagged a lack of security in the northwest. This man was the event overseer of the Grand Magus Test. Today was shaping up to be one of the busiest days of his life.The Grand Magus Test was held every two years, and he had already made the usual preparations.But yesterday, everything changed.Word arrived that, instead of sending representatives, the leaders of the top three guilds were attending in
