Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch28: Unraveled (2/2)

Zarian was thankful his room’s personal kitchen area was enormous. It had a long kitchen island that was perfect for laying out multiple meals or a few bodies in Para’s case.

The two ate their ravenous fill. Empress Ruvaria provided more food until their hunger was sated. Then Zarian was back on his gravity spell study, but this time he included Para more.

She worked as his soundboard as he discussed some of his ideas aloud. She either debated with him or pointed out the parts...

<Your trait has advanced! From Fractured Mind (Uncommon) to Unraveled Mind (Rare)!>

<Unraveled Mind (Rare): Let’s start with the bad news. You’re a bit more unhinged. The good news? All the benefits of being fractured now comes with the ability to better unravel puzzles and complications. Just don’t unravel yourself too much.>

Zarian let out a deep and low chuckle. Then it became a loud and hysterical laugh, as if he was a madman...

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch26: I Wasn’t Thinking (2/2)

Zarian noticed that Naomi had remained behind.

He had known this would happen. He found himself a little lost for words because he couldn’t read Naomi easily. Out of everyone, she alone could block out certain aspects of the mind spider in her head.

She could completely eliminate her emotions, thus making herself the most unreadable. She gave Zarian nothing he could work with as they watched each other.

Before Zarian found something worth saying, Naomi smoothly stood from ...

Zarian was standing with a porcelain tea cup in his hand, looking out the floor-to-ceiling windows at the top of the Central Library Artillery Tower. Wisps of vapors rose from the scalding hot tea. It was a dark blend. Herbal. Slightly minty, based on the smell alone.

His village’s most important guest, Empress Ruvaria, had just brewed it for him and the other occupants inside of the spacious meeting room. One might think in a political meeting like this, there was the danger of poiso...

The Bulgarian Wedding is tomorrow

I'm going to have an interesting weekend coming up. If I don't have time to post over the weekend, then I'll certainly post on Monday.

As for today, the double post coming up will bring an end to the Late Winter arc with some interesting and spicy changes.

Progression isn't always just about power and plot. Sometimes, it's about relationships and characterization, too.

Enjoy.

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch24: This is MY Guest (2/2)

There was barely a sign that she’d used a complex spell. He’d barely felt the trace of the void, either. She’d moved them instantly to a spot near the center, making it look easy, as if she was merely breathing.

He looked back and saw the others were with him, fully returned to their village. No Ekri the Tailor in sight. When he looked up, he saw The Central Library Artillery Tower between the towers. The structure stood as a vast monument to Hannah’s crafting prowess, looking l...

The petite elf woman turned away from the crater holding Ruven. She faced the Madness Wizard for the first time, her bright emerald eyes seeming to see straight through Zarian’s soul.

He couldn’t sense if she was or wasn’t. It was a hunch.

Blocky clouds covered the starry sky. Snow flew in flurries on wintry winds. Bianca’s big, charged up javelin glowed across the demolished battlefield, casting a bright light on everyone while drawing long shadows.

Finally, the elf...

Todays chapter will come out later

I'm being held by the Bulgarians, and I must drink with them. Todays chapter will come out later.

Thankfully, I already wrote the chapter. I just need to edit.

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch22: Monumental Success

The night was filled with stars, moons, and blocks of clouds drizzling snow across a battered battlefield where a huge fight left immense damages for miles. Zarian was standing on a thirty-foot boulder that one of his fellow Floridians had chucked like it was a mere ball, and he was soaking in the monumental success of his party. His heart was hammering hard as his Fractured Mind ran through many thoughts.

What a hell of a few days. My wife’s casting down enhanced versions of her ...

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch21: What We Care About

While Zarian spent the past four months studying to seal his Overwhelming Darkness, his fellow Floridians had taken separate routes to advance themselves. Just like him, they’d often committed to tedious, less rewarding tasks.

However, they hadn’t studied volumes of books to create a legendary technique. Instead, they’d dealt with clearing random packs of weaker monsters or lifting rubble off a trapped adventurer who ended up under a fallen hill of fortresses. Or, in Naomi’s cas...

Updating Multiple Profiles is Pain

Nothing can be more dreadful than updating profile info, especially after a time skip.

But I did it in order to write this latest chapter competently.

I don't think it's my best battle chapter, but I think it's the start of something I wanted to see since OP Wizard began. A OP MC with a strong-as-hell adventurer team who can support him.

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch20: Freestyle

Zarian was just about to finish unsealing his one percent power, chanting and hand-signing faster than ever before, when Ruven did the unexpected. The elf smashed the shining great sword on the nearest cubic stone floor, which the Void Waltz spell had moved with them into a snowy field.

Everything stopped moving.

The flurry of snow in the winter breeze. The blocky clouds covering the stars and moons of the night. Even the distant sounds of conversation and late-night haggling from...

Survived a Mountain Hike

So if you didn't know by now, I used to be in the Marines. Back in the Marines, they made us run a lot and do a bunch of exercises that raised our endurance even if it meant we weren't really the strongest people around. But it didn't seem to matter when you can run for hours and carry someone who was around your weight.

So it's been years since then and I've returned to a place I've held fond memories of, and part of those fond memories is climbing Vitosha Mountain. I've done it twice ...

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch19: Cut Throat

Every time Zarian entered Ride-or-Die Village the mundane way, he couldn’t help but chuckle from how over the top it looked. Corma, the World of Castles and Caverns, was a high fantasy medieval setting. Yet, a new outsider wouldn’t know that from the slight futurism Hannah had built into the village.

There were magic lights shining from the top of magic poles on every street corner. There were magic signs that glowed with colorful neon lights from over entrances and on the sides of ...

Lol, I got a fever while leaving the states and heading to Bulgaria. It's kind of annoying but I'm doing somewhat better now. Enjoy today's chapter.

Especially the reveal at the end.

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch18: Political Angles

The paladins didn’t attempt to kill Zarian.

They had their swords drawn. They had their magic charged. But they stayed put and did nothing as the kobolds suffered very gruesome deaths. The paladins chose to not throw their lives away to strike at the most evil creature they had ever seen, the Madness Wizard.

Maybe that was a consequence of Zarian riding on a shifted gnoll elder who was about thirty feet tall at the shoulders. Her drooling, blood-coated maw could snap up a whole ...

Taking a Trip to Bulgaria

I'm going to be flying and traveling for a few days. Once I get settled at my stay, I'll have another chapter up. Thanks for all the support! I've been really enjoying the world-building aspects to OP Wizard, so I hope you're enjoying them, too. Things will probably get crazy again soon, but for now, I'm seeing how far I can take the 'epic' part in what's supposed to be a LitRPG Epic Fantasy.

Anyway, enjoy today's chapter!

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch17: Yeah, I’m Him (3/3)

Zarian pulled away from Eleanor’s patrol. He jacked into other spiders that were surveying events around the Ride-or-Die Village. He watched Roland the Rose Knight lead a grizzled group of ten killers against a nest of monsters that came from the Blood Prairies.

The monsters were blood raptors, a dinosaur-like creature with scales, feathers, and large talons. The monsters stood as tall as a horse and had velociraptor heads with wicked man-eating teeth.

They were migrating from t...

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch16: Yeah, I’m Him (2/3)

Zarian had spiders nearly everywhere around Ride-or-Die Village. Even when there was too much distance for him to receive pings or observe through an individual spider, the spiders could act without him.

Their primary objective was to serve as scouting backup for the two hundred and eighty-nine youngsters who were the first members of the Ride-or-Die Guild.

Zarian and his fellow Floridians hadn’t opened up to the guild for more members yet, since they were still focused on the d...

Dawn’s light appeared on the eastern horizon of a gray winter morning. Thin beams streamed between the icy stone bark of the forest trees, frost-covered hedges, columns, and weathered statues. It was all nice and picturesque, or it would’ve been if Ezda wasn’t moving so fast while Zarian rode on her back.

She was transformed into her more giant bestial form as she took them back south, which was an unnecessary mode of transportation for Zarian. He could move on his own feet fairly...

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch14: Darkness Resistant (2/2)

Zarian was tempted to call Luciana through the crystal ball. He was itching to do it. Maybe he would curse her out for throwing all that at him suddenly. Or maybe he would thank her.

The blood rush had felt good.

His heart was still hammering.

He held back from calling her. He didn’t exactly trust himself right now. His free evil +3 helped here.

The smartest thing was to act unfazed and give himself time to think. More importantly, he should check on his party member...

Zarian faced a monster that looked like three wendigoes fused together at the waist, its lower body a bovine hulk the size of a full suburban SUV.

The entire entity didn’t fit in the dilapidated hallways of the fortress hill that Zarian found himself in while brawling corrupted creatures covered in Black Fire.

None of them cared about proportions or cramped spacing. All that mattered was violence and madness.

The monster barreled forward destructively, its hooves digging t...

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch12: An Actual Challenge

There was mainly one reason Zarian hadn’t divorced Luciana already. It had nothing to do with their families, at least not for Zarian.

While he had no idea what would happen with his family or Luciana’s family once he divorced her, he didn’t appreciate their elders deciding how to run his love life. He figured he shouldn’t have to be considerate of their grand, ultra outrageous plans in return.

The real reason he held back from divorcing Luciana was because she would dwell...

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch11: Cultivate

When Zarian started his journey in learning sealing and unsealing techniques four months ago, he had to dig up the basic volumes first. They leaned toward the esoteric.

Stuff like ‘The Four Cornered Square Locking Hand Techniques’ or ‘Basics of Seals and Stars, A Three Part Volume on Holding Back The Tide’ or ‘Everyday Magic Beyond Star System Skills’ were his first reading materials.

There were books with long and tedious names that led to the name of Zarian’s curre...

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch10: One Percent Power

Zarian’s Fractured Mind had only grown sharper, faster, and more capable with time, especially with all the pressure of establishing his Twenty Dark Locks Sealing Style. He could focus on his sealing style and stay highly aware of battlefield conditions.

His aura manipulation reached out in a wide sphere, feeling across various strands of aura and magic. He’d gotten better at this, more fine tuned ever since the day of the Darkrun Apocalypse.

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch9: Late Winter

Four months after the death and revival of everything, which was now known as the Darkrun Apocalypse, Late Winter came around. Zarian was officially a year older. If this was the old world, it would’ve been February, the month of Zarian’s birthday twenty-two years ago.

He hadn’t had many records of that time surrounding his arrival in the old world. In fact, he remembered how his records were dubious and messy while he grew up in the foster care system.

That was the nature o...

“The anti-air barrier really is gone,” Zarian said, looking up.

He could feel its lack of presence with aura manipulation. There was no missing the disappearance of a powerful divine working like that.

Either Good Goddess Lovewar wasn’t a friend anymore or she couldn’t use her boon for him. He wanted to think it was the latter, but he wouldn’t be surprised if Lovewar were cautious or unhappy with him. At the very least, he knew of one goddess who would accept his call re...

Overpowered Wizard B2 Ch7: Ramifications (1/2)

Zarian enjoyed working with people on the same page with him. Even when they were all drunk, which made things better sometimes. They were holding nothing back and being true to themselves.

He didn’t however, like all the responsibilities and hangups of being a dutiful leader all the time. The absence of evil +3 made him realize he’d leaned on evil’s intellect a lot more than he expected.

If I don’t choose to use it, I’ll get soft with it.
