《My Magical System 》Chapter 22: Feeling inferior
Advertisement
Mina wasn't able to kill the first Elder rat that she took down. The Elder rat, though heavily wounded and bloodied all over, yet wasn't given up.
It lifted its hand that holding a stick. What followed next was words of an incomprehensible language that coming out of its mumbling mouth. The Elder rat cast a spell.
After casting an unknown spell, radiant of green color slowly envelop its body, and its wounds gradually healed.
Though the Elder rat healed its wounds, it's hardly able to stand. It might be because too much of its blood had lost. But in Yeman's vision, the number of 10/1,000 inside the red bar was visible above this monster's head.
An idea suddenly occurred inside his head. He smiled evilly while deliberately approaching the weakened Elder rat.
Mina and the second Elder rat were currently battling at 10 meters away from the weakened Elder rat.
At the corner of her vision, she saw the guy slowly approaching the first Elder rat that she took down. She was wondering what this guy planning to do, but Mina twitches her brows when she noticed that the monster that she thought was dead, still gasping for breath?
"How could it be?" her eyes widened while asking herself.
Tsk! She clicked her tongue in annoyance.
That guy has already done in killing the other monsters, while she was still busy with the second Elder rat. Just the thought of her being inferior to him made her puke. And now the first monster she took down, had managed to stay alive?! However, it's already weak. Regardless, something was unusual with the guy that's with her. She had the feeling that this guy had intended to last hitting the weakened monster.
She's wondering if this guy was the type of guy that she hated the most, the one that greedy in gaining the score and be boastful later. Just the thought of it irks her for some reason.

*Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!*
She has no spare time to dawdle around. Because another wave of Earth Balls came hurling towards her. Mina furrowed her brows. She must finish this fight as quickly as possible. To do that, she needed to use one of her special skills.
In the Academy, Mina was one of the talents that only appeared once in a century. She has a high aptitude in magic, unlike the guy that they called Worm. At first, she felt pity for this guy. But when she heard that the Worm tried to woo her friend, her reaction was, "what a courageous person."
Though she pitied him, she also felt curious about this courageous guy. When she heard about the recruitment for the subjugation mission, she hastily applied. And after they were assigned to their respected squads, she found out that she was in the same group with the guy they called Worm.
She's wondering if the guy could fight since he doesn't have an aptitude with magic.
In this world, being born without magic was equivalent to being born as a worm.

Recruit - An Infinite Labyrinth prequel
A prequel to The Infinite Labyrinth. The year is 1816. The British Empire is in full swing, under the auspices of King George III. The Infinite Labyrinth has been pouring out its product from beyond our reality and fostered a new industrial revolution. Times are changing, and the people of London are feeling the winds of the revolution while British Professionals push into the Labyrinth. The newly formed Artefact Hunting Company is looking for recruits, and they have new technology to help them. From the slums of London, they aim to recruit a new wave of Professionals. And make Zacharias and the Earl of Carnavon lots of money. So, for Rowan Rivers and a handful of lucky ones, it's time to head into the Labyrinth, and discover what makes it different from England. And what makes THEM different? Recruit is a bunch of chapters I wrote to create to the setting, mood, and game systems of the Infinite Labyrinth. It is NOT a complete story in the classic sense. It's more of a slice of life view of early days of a normal Professional from the Infinite Labyrinth, and it's heavy on info-dump. It's 90% canon - there's probably a bit of a difference between how some characters and common behaviour are portrayed here and how they'll come out in the main story. Set two years before the events that kick-start the main series, it features some of the secondary/peripheral characters of the Infinite Labyrinth and will tell you all about the basic mechanics of the Labyrinth's RPG system. It can be considered a spoiler, as the characters in the Infinite Labyrinth are going to need to figure out all that, on their own. But if you like a much deeper exposition in the mechanics, here it is. The entire prequel is about 80 pages long.

The Shards of Sylvia's Soul
In the little village of Nyberg, Sylvia is dreaming of a future with Rebecca at her side. Together, they could move overseas. But when bandits attack, all of her tender dreams turn to ashes.

So bonded, they attempt to settle down. When a distant heir to the Crown asks for aid to reunite the country, Sylvia sees her chance to finally right all the wrongs committed against her family. In the pursuit of the throne, Afi and Sylvia come to risk their very lives. Sylvia uncovers the relationship between soul, magic, and divinity itself, but even in research, there is peril. It is not an easy task to balance the strain on her soul with the demands of the upcoming battle. In this world, the soul is not an incorporeal concept. To the contrary, the human soul is a physical object, an organ which resides in the chest of each individual. It is a great source of strength, but also of vulnerability. Hardship can leave scratches and blemishes, or even break the soul in two. The soul is each person's connection to divinity, to the magic which is ubiquitous to the world. It enables the cultivation of gods, but old legends warn of demons emerging in the presence of corrupt intention, and of hollow warriors, with no soul at all. There are two sides to every page. Update ScheduleNew chapters are in the works. ScopeThree to four books in total are planned.Book 1: "Fri Women" Chapters 1-64. Find the paperback and e-book here.
