The Wizard World Chapter 529: Reunion (2)
Chapter 529: Reunion (2)
Translator: _Leo_ Editor: Kurisu
The biochip’s mechanical noise slowly echoed in his ears.
‘Analyzing the content…
‘Neutralizing the content… Searching the database… Filtering out the suitable potions…
‘Dream Flower, Rosaceae. Effect: Hallucination. Duration: three days. Potion needed: Refreshing Potion, 60 grams.’
The biochip gave Angele the solution within seconds.
Angele lowered his hand as blue light dots flashed in front of his eyes.
“I still have some Refreshing Potion left. I’ve prepared a lot of this potion before.” He took out a black test tube from the mirror and the tube was filled up sticky liquid.
Angele removed the stopper and poured some of the liquid on Vivian’s forehead.
A drop of black liquid slowly landed between Vivian’s eyebrows.
*CHI*
Dark smoke with a strange smell rose from Vivian’s head.
Vivian suddenly sat up and shouted, “Cough… Cough… Green?!” She looked confused and it seemed like she thought she was still seeing illusions.
The black liquid had evaporated but the smell was still in the air. It smelt a bit like sterilizing liquid.
“You’re… back…” Vivian’s eyes refocused and looked at Angele who was standing by the bed.
Angele smiled and responded, “Yes, I’m back, Vivian. There’s nothing to worry about now.”
Vivian’s body floated in the air and flew to Angele, hugging him tightly.
“Promise me… Don’t be like your father…” Her voice was shaky, everything she did was for Angele and the organization. Vivian was a strong woman, but she was almost crying like a little girl.
Angele was a bit confused, but he recalled how his own father treated him and felt a bit depressed as well. He hugged Vivian back but remained silent.
They just stayed there without saying a word.
Time passed. Vivian trembled for a while and slowly calmed down.
“It has been a while, Vivian… It seems you’ve gained some weight…” Angele suddenly muttered.
“Damn! That’s all you have to say?!” Vivian released Angele from her hands and slapped Angele on the head. She then grabbed Angele’s cheeks and started pulling his face.
“Say that again. What do you mean I’ve gained some weight? Huh?”
“My bad… I’ve been traveling for too long, I made a mistake! Mother, you’re young and beautiful! I’m sure that the members of the alliance all want to go on a date with you!”
Angele’s face was pulled into different shapes but there was nothing he could do. He just stood there and begged for mercy.
*Knock Knock*
Someone knocked on the wooden door.
“Come on, Vivian, someone’s knocking…” Angele quickly muttered.

“So what?! I don’t care if others see this.” Vivian moved down the bed and did not care that she was only wearing the underwear.
“You’re just like your father. You just don’t care. I don’t even know if he’s dead or not. He disappeared years ago…” There were tears in Vivian’s eyes.
“Alright, alright, calm down.” Angele was a bit speechless. “Please put on some clothes first, I’m a grown man now and…” He turned his head around. It was common for wizards to marry their relatives. Many female wizards looked still like young girls after hundreds of years. Some wizards would even try to have sexual intercourses with their grandchildren. Angele felt terrified just thinking about this, he did not want the relationship between him and Vivian to change.
Vivian had been hiding her emotions for so long that she vented her feelings. She blushed after hearing Angele’s words, then quickly created a black silk dress and put it on.
Vivian calmed down and her expression turned cold again.
She glanced at Angele and spoke in a serious tone, “Don’t go anywhere!”
“I won’t…” Angele felt relieved. It was the first time that he saw Vivian act like that. He looked at the door, then told Turin and Becky to wait using energy particles.
“Alright, Vivian, what’s your next plan? The situation in the central continent will get worse and worse,” Angele questioned in a deep tone as the smile disappeared from his face.
“My plan?” Vivian walked to the window and peeked outside. “I don’t have a plan. I just don’t want to get dragged into the war. There’s nothing we can do. We have to follow Prince Evil Dragon’s plan.” She sighed. “If the alliance wins, the situation should be fine; however, if the Dark Wizard Tower wins…”
“Don’t worry, you have me.” Angele walked to Vivian. “I’ll stay with you.”
Vivian smiled, but she looked worried.
Angele had no idea how he should explain everything to his mother. Henn was the start of everything, his soul and the scorpion’s soul already merged. It meant that Angele had no way to explain everything to Vivian.
Vivian did not ask Angele about his position in the Dark Wizard Tower, so Angele remained silent. There were many things that he could not explain. Angele had perfect plans, but sometimes his plans just got out of control.
The invasion of the Fairy Realm and the Dark Wizard Tower would happen sooner or later. Also, it was the same for the Nightmare Realm—Angele just sped up the process slightly.

“Mother… If what I did brings terrible results to this world, will you forgive me?” Angele suddenly asked.
“Why?” Vivian glanced at Angele. “You’ve already done a lot of things like that.”
“Come on…” Angele chuckled.
“As long as you don’t make the mistake intentionally.” A gentle smile appeared on Vivian’s face. “I’ll forgive you for whatever you do.” Angele reminded Vivian of the man she loved for some reason.
Angele was similar to that man somehow.
Although Vivian already knew that Angele might not be her real son and Angele looked nothing like the man she loved, Vivian still thought that the two might be related to each other.
“I found a safe area and it can help us stay away from the ongoing war. I stayed in that area for a while and that’s the reason why I’m safe. Mother, you and the Elemental Hand should go to that area with me so that we’ll all be safe.” Angele changed the topic.
“Huh? Is there really a place like this?” Vivian was interested.
“Yeah, it’s on the other side of Nicolas Abyss Vortex.” Angele pointed to a random direction. The monsters from the Nightmare Realm would never attack him no matter what happened, so Vivian would be safe as long as he was around. He wanted to convince Vivian, so the location he mentioned was a mysterious area that the wizards of the central continent had never visited.
“Nicolas Abyss Vortex?” Vivian was surprised. “How did you pass through that area? The wizard lords had explored the area before, but they failed to move past the dangerous vortex. How do you know the area is safe?”
“I have my secret technique!” Angele had a mysterious smile on his face. “It’s not a vortex, it’s the strongest tornado on this land; it has been staying there for thousands of years. Luckily, I’ve found a way to travel through it.”
“Seriously?” Vivian found it hard to believe.
“Yeah.”
“You’re lying to me.”
“No, this is a serious discussion and there’s no point for me to lie!” Angele quickly explained.
“It’s great if it’s true. How many people will be able to travel through the tornado?” Vivian quickly asked.
“3000 people at most, or it’ll be a problem.” Angele did the calculation quickly. With the power of his refined true form, he would be able to protect 3000 people. He was not sure how strong the tornado was and he had to make sure that he could protect everyone well.
“That’s more than enough.” Vivian shook her head. “However, we all know that the garden is safe and people won’t believe that you’ve found a better place. I think only several hundred people will follow us; there’ll be fewer than 40 formal wizards.”
“That’ll be great. It’ll be easier for us to hide with fewer people around.” Angele nodded.
Vivian blushed again and questioned, “One more thing, it seems like you haven’t found a partner yet, is there anything wrong with your body? Do you want me to check it for you?”
“You’re the hope of Fenrir Family and it’s about time for you to have a child.”
“Don’t worry… I’m still young and I’ll figure out a way when the time is right,” Angele quickly declined the offer.
“Don’t be shy, if there’s a problem with your body, you can try the method your father and I used. You can extract the life essence from both sides and create the child. I didn’t even have to suffer the pain when giving the birth,” Vivian explained with a low voice.
“Extract the life essence?! Wait… You mean… You and my father never had…” Angele realized something and his expression froze.
Vivian was also surprised by Angele’s words.
“I have something else to take care of and I need to leave now.” Angele did not finish his last sentence and quickly teleported out of the room.
Angele was not sure if Vivian and the man he loved had sexual intercourse or not, however, it seemed like Vivian was different from other female wizards.
Angele doubted if the man truly loved Vivian; maybe Vivian was the one that just could not give up. Also, it was possible that Vivian loved the man so much that she was not thinking about things carefully. Angele was not sure if the man knew that his student loved him so much before he disappeared.
Angele suddenly felt sorry for Henn, but he had no idea where Henn was at the moment.
Vivian was a student of Henn, but she fell in love with Henn’s partner. Also, Henn found that Vivian and her partner had a child after her partner disappeared. That was the reason why Henn misunderstood everything.
Angele was not concerned; everything happened so long ago that he no longer cared. However, if Vivian never had sexual intercourse…
He had a strange thought in mind. Vivian, Angele’s mother, could still be a virgin although she lived for so long.
If his thought was true, Vivian would be nothing like other female wizards, which meant that the environment never changed Vivian’s thoughts, and it was nearly impossible.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.
