People were floating around in a bubble while being slowly healed by Zhang Dong’s holy energies. He had moved forward to distance himself a bit while facing off against the red demon.
The situation didn’t look so good at his end as he could feel that his power was fading the more he remained in this world. The young students that he had left to lend him power were transferring less and less of it his way.
There was also the problem of too many unconscious and injured people ar...

“Are you sure we should be doing this, Prince Ludwig?”
“Lady Beatrice’s summon was somewhat convincing… if it doesn’t work out we could…”
“Hey, Carrot top, Moss head, be quiet or I’ll zap you again!”
Zhang Dong shouted out from the side while finishing up with his drawing. What he was producing was a combination of a magic circle and an array formation from his own world. He was aiming for something similar to a spirit gathering array that caught ambien...

Roland and Bernir were in the process of returning to the workshop. After getting breakfast out of the way both of them were ready to work on some things. The crimson armor that he wore needed some tending and his shield did take the brunt of that attack. Before any repairs could be made he would need to clear up some things with his new worker and also his new tamed beast.
The little puppy had woken up halfway through their trip and was now running circles around Roland. From what the ...

This was a large magical academy with thousands of students and teachers. The people that they examined today were only a small fraction. There was a focus on the teachers this day but the bulk of people was composed by the students. It would have taken them a week or two to go over everyone here but the Archdemon threw a wrench into their plans.
With a loud howl from its toothy mouth the students and teachers that weren’t tested started to change. Every person that was a demon in dis...

“Welcome back Mr. Wayland we are finished here as well.”
The busty elf lady smiled at Roland as he returned with the puppy. He had taken it down from his head by now. This was done out of concern that the puppy would grow up thinking that he might be the leader of the pack. He couldn’t just let his tamed monster literally walk over him.
Bernir was to the side waving at him as well, he looked happy for some reason after looking at the puppy that was now in Roland’s hands.

“Keep it contained, increase the magic output!”
“W-we can’t hold it, it’s going to escape… We need to evacuate the academy!”
“All of you feeble flesh bags will perish within my flames!”

Zhang Dong commented from the side as he was looking at a five-meter-tall horned demon. It had the classical look of a muscle-bound giant with sharp claws for hands. The legs were hooved and it also had the usu...

A glowing tiny version of Zhang Dong was floating beside Beatrice as they walked through a long corridor. Next to them was the Principal and the Vice Principal that looked like your regular white-bearded wizard.
“So you have everything prepared?”
“Yes, honorable Leigong.”
“No one besides you two and a couple more know what this is really about?”
“That is right, everyone that we trust have already been seen by you.”
Zhang Dong nodded while looking ...

Four guards were standing by the entrance gate to Albrook City. This gate had two large towers to its sides with even a few archers keeping watch. The whole city was still in the development phase but most of the walls that surrounded the insides were already built.
It was early in the day so there wasn’t much to do for these guardsmen. They were here to keep immigrants outside if they weren’t able to pay. Even now people kept pouring into this city in hopes of earning money and sta...

‘Huh, is it over?’
Zhang Dong called out with a sleepy voice while Beatrice was going down from the stage. The speech that she performed was rather long-winded and took quite some time. He as well as some other students had dozed off during it. He could even see good old moss head and carrot top barely keeping their eyes open.
‘Mr. Leigong… that’s mean…’
Beatrice started pouting while carrying a stack of papers. She had spent quite some time preparing this spee...

It was the dawn of the next day. After falling asleep in his bathtub he was greeted with some new problems. The monster egg had hatched and produced some kind of dog-like creature. If he had to describe it he would say that it was similar to a wolf puppy with long-standing ears and a longer snout.
The other characteristic thing about it was its tail that had a sharp ruby tip. This same tip was now slamming against one of his wooden chairs while the pup was wagging it around. After check...

Zhang Dong watched the monster jump out of the window and the Gandalf look-alike Vice-Principal chasing after it. He was lucky that he noticed the cat girl’s transformation technique, this he achieved after he started poking some of the old-looking books.
As always he was looking for information but he witnessed the third eye flickering into existence after he got closer. His power was diminished so he couldn’t spread his senses into the surroundings to scan people. In this form, he...

Roland’s journey back up was mostly uneventful. The monsters at the lower levels were far too weak and his new ‘partner’ was actually being helpful. Any monster that he slew the young man was able to disassemble quite fast. He was also good at pointing out which monster parts would sell for the most coins.
There was only one downside to this as it took him more time to return. Which left Roland prompting him to hurry it up. When the two survivors were out it was already late at ni...

A chibi version of Zhang Dong with a somewhat bobblehead was floating around the room. This form used up almost no mana as it was small and without much density. The design he went with was one that would make him seem cuter. His face looked quite cartoonish with enlarged eyes but still had some of his old face structure.
The people in the room looked at this ‘Lightning Emperor’ with mixed expressions. Most of them were baffled by the strange look that was inspired by animated movie...

Bernir dropped down onto his butt after seeing the monster finally go down. The bloody battle was finally over and the monster had self detonated after getting its core cracked by the man wearing the crimson armor.
He thought back to how this day started. Bernir had just recently joined up with a fresh adventurer party. Not as a part of it, more as a freelancer that was doing odd jobs for them for money. There was a reason why he was here all alone and without his family.

Beatrice covered her eyes along with all the other people as Zhang Dong was performing his attack. She felt rather small and weak the moment the giant dragon head popped out into the outside world. She recognized this as the golden dragon that she saw in her spirit’s soul dimension.
It was unknown to her what this dragon was as it behaved like a dog. The dragon didn’t really behave as the legendary beings that she read about in the books. These giant scaly lizards were supposed to b...

After a moment of silence, the audience in the arena started to shout out. They just witnessed a half-naked man lifting up half of the arena’s ground and flipping it with the large dragon on it. It just looked like he dug his hands into the ground and pulled out a large part of the ground from underneath.
The Summoned Land Dragon roared loudly before all the noises stopped. Now everyone was looking at a big pile of rubble and with only the half-naked man before it. His long white hair...

Roland looked back to the door that shut behind him. His eyes glowed in a purple light as he scanned the surroundings. There didn’t seem to be any runes on this side of the passage, it looked like there was no way of going back.
He grimaced under his helmet before turning around and moving forward. The shield that Roland made had a boss in the center that was protruding slightly. A boss or a umbo was a round, convex or conical piece of material at the center of a shield. This shield h...

More and more people poured into the training arena where the summoner test was taking place. Word had spread that a new top student had appeared that belonged to a lower noble house. This caused all of the black-uniformed students to be interested in seeing one of their own move up in social status. Also, the white uniforms were interesting in the new upstart.
Everyone murmured while they saw her walking out even more after they all realized that both the Vice Principal and the Princip...

A large burly man with no hair was laughing at Armand the instructor that just faced off against Roland. The Pugilist was in a sorry state, he was holding his hands that were slowly healing after some of his fingers were broken.
This wasn’t the actual cause of him looking pale though. The skill that he activated took quite a bit out of him. It wasn’t something that could be used for a prolonge...

A loud knock on a white ornate door was heard. Behind that exquisite looking entrance there was a spacious room. On the sides, there were blue crystals that illuminated it from all sides while the windows seemed to be not letting much sunlight in.
Inside there, various bookcases with various grimoires could be spotted. But the most characteristic item that was there looked to be a large white desk. Behind it there was a person looking over some scrolls, this person seemed quite annoyed ...

Zhang Dong was a bit maddened. He had made many blunders through these aptitude tests which caused Beatrice to stand out. The plan of getting into the special class with somewhat lowered scores had fallen through. Beatrice was looking like some kind of gifted child now, far above the other powerful noble houses. He knew well how those types of people reacted to upstarts, his only hope was that they wouldn’t go all out against a child till she grows.
Then there was this guy that was tr...

“No what is it?”
“Armand is going to test some kind of a newbie.”
“Armand? Didn’t he break that last guy’s legs?”
“The same, we should go check it out. I heard his opponent is quite an eccentric.”
Two men were chatting outside the adventurer guild building. They soon moved around it towards the training field in the back. As they arrived they could see a small crowd of people already there.

A somewhat nice looking deep steel gauntlet was laying down on a table. Roland looked at his newest creation and couldn’t help to slide his hand inside of it. The feeling was quite nice and he could move his fingers around well.
This gauntlet that he made was in the ‘glove’ style. There was the option to go with a ‘mitten’ design that offered more protection for his fingers. That type of gauntlet offered more defense but at the expense of dexterity. He went with the more dexte...

This was something everyone was preparing for years during basic classes so she wasn’t the only person that was nervous.
A lot depended on this aptitude test. The biggest reason a person wanted to get a good result was status and power. By being rated higher a student would get access to better bo...

The sounds of vomiting filled a closed-off room. In it, there were many smithing tools along with scribbles of runic patterns on the walls. This was Roland’s workshop that he had hidden away in while going through his tier 2 ascension ritual. After it was over he found himself affected by the strain of going through those tests.
In the regular world, the use of a class-changing crystal was almost instantaneous. It didn’t seem like more than a few seconds had passed. Reality was diff...
