Ezekiel paid for a room for three days and three nights and it cost him three silver coins. It was costly but it did include breakfast so he paid it without any complaint.
“Let me lead you to your room,” the jovial innkeeper said.
“Not yet sir. We have to go to where our cart is placed so we can retrieve our things. The meat from the animals that I’ve butchered is there as well. They’re truly fresh so if you’re interested, you can check them out,...

Anton showed off a few more of the Assassin’s skills, which flabbergasted everyone since most of the skills from the mysterious hidden killers were not known to regular mages or even regular people. Apparently, those stealth warriors tried to keep their skills secret to make sure that people would not have any counter for them when the assassins used them.
He had to reiterate to everyone that the skills that he had shown them, like some of the martial arts skills and some of the Shado...

Ezekiel was waiting for the three spades that were awoken by the spell Tiny Servants to dig enough a deep grave where he could put in the three corpses. His feelings about the situation were beginning to overwhelm him like some sort of panic attack. He thought he could shrug off the act of killing people who would try to hurt him and his brothers but killing humans for the first time affected him deeply.
He thought again of what would have happened if he allowed the...

The week before they arrived on the islands of Norbuna, Anton focused on leveling up his newly created Diablo II Assassin character. He didn’t know much about the Assassin, so he followed the build suggested by gamers on the Red streaming site and the guide written on the most famous Diablo II websites.
The only thing that he could say was that Anton wasn’t built to play melee characters. Even with the Paladin, for leveling-up purposes, he built it as some sort of caster while his N...

Ezekiel continued learning his letters by reading the words loudly from the elementary book from Norman Duvon, his old tutor who betrayed them. He was still a little angry thinking about that old man. He wondered why the old tutor still wanted to have more coins by selling him out to rich nobles. He was already old. What would he do with more wealth?
He decided to forget about it and their old village in general since there seemed to be very few good memories from t...

Anton left the suite after telling everyone that he wanted to roam around the Amelia. With his presence gone, at least for a few hours, the mages in the family could rest from practicing their spell casting and spell memorization and do something else.
He had to reiterate to everyone that the assassin problem was not yet resolved so if they planned to go outside, even with the new magical defensive item, they still would need to be in a group bringing the wolves with them and if necessa...

It was only about a week before the Amelia would arrive on the islands of Norbuna. There was a feverish atmosphere inside the ship. Everyone was excited about reaching the islands since it was the first time in a few months that the people on the ship would touch land again. Not only that but there was a major event that would happen, which was the Cosplay Event that was based on the Lord of Rings movies. Not only that, the economy inside the ship would be injected with new blood from the peo...

Anton found that the novice mages were listening to Frederick giving a lecture about magic when he arrived at the suite. He forgot that the mages would not be able to practice their magic without him there since it would exponentially increase the time they needed to memorize a spell.
“I thought you’d spend some time catching fish?” Frederick asked when he saw Anton enter the room.
“I find that there’s really no need for me to do so. The crew actually caught tons and ton...

During dinner in the dining hall, Harun informed Anton that they would pass some sort of belt area in the ocean where a lot of delicious sea fishes would pass by. The Amelia would stop for a few hours so that sailors could catch fish for the passengers and crew.
“Are we allowed to catch our own?” Anton asked the sailor assigned to their family as their guide.
“Yes, but only after the crew is done,” Harun replied.
Anton wondered how he could catch fish using his skill...

Since it was early, around four in the afternoon, Ezekiel decided to spend the rest of the afternoon practicing his woodwork. Of course, before he started he made sure that Prince Charming was comfortable in his stable and had enough food and water.
He also told his brother that they could use the time to play and Ezekiel even allowed them to play outside the houses as long as they didn’t go far. He was comfortable with Robert and Luke in having their adventure in...

Anton served some of the food that he had in his inventory to Torun, Blake, Andrea, and Soren and they enjoyed the snacks while they sat surrounding the Dire Bear, enjoying the warmth the huge animal was exuding.
The main reason why his friends visited him was to inquire about the Cosplay event. They saw the flyers that were being distributed to the passengers and even though they were excited especially when they saw the prizes, they were aghast at the price of the entrance tickets.

Ezekiel, of course, had not forgotten the pheasant, deer, and boar meat and skin that were stored in his 4th tab space and he would sell most of those but he wanted to check the viability of selling the small wooden arts and crafts and based on the customer’s reactions to his items, it was viable to earn coins through being a wood crafter.
He commanded Yuki Onna to fetch his brothers and even before he completed storing all of the unsold items in the huge storage ...

The three siblings woke up early at the same time the next day. After breakfast, Ezekiel fed and watered Prince Charming then the three of them took a bath and Ezekiel cleaned their clothes using his Prestidigitation spell. After that, he made sure that no traces of them would be left in the clearing.
Ezekiel cast the Mage Armor spell on the three of them and their donkey as well then they left to continue their journey.

The next day was hectic for Anton’s father, Nemina, Antonia, and Lucia since it would be the day that the official announcement for the Cosplay event would be held. Even though rumors about the event had already spread amongst the fans of the Lord of The Rings trilogy on the ship, there was no confirmation from the owners of the cinema but that day, Anton’s family and friends would finally release the flyers they had prepared for the event.
The brochure would inform everyone that th...

“I thought so as well but I managed to complete it earlier.”
Anton then showed the belt to everyone.

Ezekiel and his two brothers spent so much time practicing the crossbow and playing in the clearing they were staying in that he didn’t notice the passing of the time and when he checked it, it was already four in the afternoon.

Anton, his family, and friends watched Spiderman Part Two that evening, and after about an hour of conversation about the film, they all rested for the night.
The next day, every one of the mages doubled down in their magic practice after breakfast, as if the day before when they skipped practicing their magic due to the wizard gathering was a huge miss for them even though they did manage to purchase the spells they wanted to have once they ranked up.
Anton didn’t know if the m...

Anton thought that the mages would keep on practicing their magic instead of going to the wizards’ meetings. But the new mages like Lunelle, Walter, Ramona, and Belinda urged Anna and Frederick to go to the hall where the wizard gathering would be held since they needed to shop for spells they could use.
Each one of them thought that they were already on the verge of rising in their wizardry rank and they wanted to prepare the spells they wanted to have.

Dinner was lively that night since the food served consisted of the Kraken tentacle meat which Anton had to admit was still truly delicious to everyone even though they had eaten the dishes that consisted of the meat several times. The fact that the tentacle meat was added to various dishes made the rare meat truly shine.
Anton was glad that he still had a ton of the meat but he still wanted to encounter more of the sea monsters so he could get more of them. The taste was truly divine a...

If Anton wanted to categorize his spell mastery, Anton would give them several ranks like Novice, Amateur, Adept, and Master and if he wanted to be honest, he was only in the Novice rank in all of them and he would only consider himself as Amateur in some of the spells from the Sorcerer skill tree.
It wasn’t a formal categorization but something he invented based on the web novels that he had read but knew deep inside that he was right. He was even surprised that his system was not ad...

Ezekiel thought of the fact that the good thing about traveling on a road with hardly any traffic and with a well-behaved donkey who just plodded on amiably was the three of them could concentrate on their business without minding Prince Charming.
As usual, before the start of every journey, Ezekiel made sure to arrange the spells that he might use during the day in all of his spell slots but to be honest, the fact that he could switch out the spells quickly meant t...

Everyone else who was sleeping was surprised to learn that the others didn’t sleep and just kept talking the whole night, but it didn’t matter. One night without sleep did not affect any of them and it did divert the attention from the dangers of the hidden attackers to the business opportunities they could start once they reached the Gale Continent.

Anton felt like a kid while he was with Torun and the others. He felt like he was back in his senior year of high school talking with his friends about any topic under the sun. For a moment, he forgot about magic, the undead, the need to become powerful to survive, and any other stressful things in his life and he was glad.
He was only twenty-three when he left Earth, but he had to admit that his maturity was probably stuck just after high school. After graduation, his life took a turn ...

Ezekiel knew that earning coins selling wood art and small furniture would be slow compared to selling some of the other items that he could purchase from his system shopping site. A good example was salt and spices. As a matter of fact, the majority of gold coins that he had were from selling salt to the spice merchant in Eagle Village market, and was glad that nothing dangerous came bad off the trade.
The merchant probably believed his story about the “pure” s...

The journey so far was uneventful and Ezekiel and his brothers did not meet anyone on the road. It almost felt like they were the only ones left in the world that sometimes he felt that this was not a fantasy world but a post-apocalyptic one. He wasn’t even sure that this was truly a fantasy world since Ezekiel hadn’t seen any signs of magic or magical creatures aside from his.
According to his brothers and his brief encounters with the villagers from the Eagle ...
