《Origin of the Best Void Magician》Chapter 03: Adventure Guild
Advertisement
The next day, Kagerou went to the Guild to register himself as adventurer. He walked through all shops he strolled around yesterday straight to the guild.
He pushed the door and saw a spectacled sight in front of him. Adventurers who were idling around doing nothing silently stared at him. Their gaze made him felt sick, so he went straight to receptionist counter.
“Um, can I register as an Adventurer? I’m still a rookie.”
Before the receptionist can replied his answer, someone was standing behind him while applying a killing intent to him. He who was always calm, shuddered by the man’s killing intent.
“Hey, brat. I’m gonna warn you through and through, so make sure you remember it. Don’t ever come here and applied as an adventurer if you think you are rookie!”
“I have a manner and as a diligent person, I would not proudly says I’m the strongest.”
“This brat…”
“Please don’t fight here….”
The person who stared at Kagerou, gazed at receptionist, which started to paled unable to hold this degree of killing intent.
“Don’t do that to her, Meathead. She just wanted to stop this meaningless fight.”
Because he was provoked by Kagerou’s word, He aim to punch him hard enough to make him barely unconscious. Unfortunately, Kagerou had a high reflex and wit. Besides, he also had [Prediction], [Combat Mode] and [Multi Thought]. By dodging the punch to the left side, he caught his hand while locking as he intent to performing a reverse roundhouse kick aiming at his neck. Because of the force from he absorbed and the gravity pull, make his kick much faster and heavier than the punch that was throw by that man.
The kick unfortunately doesn’t reach the neck as he intend to aim, that person was lucky. But the power of that kick was ridiculous. Even the kick doesn’t landed on the vital point of the body, it still landed on his body. A loud sound was heard inside the guild.

The person then fell with a thump sound echoing. He was after all lying there unconscious. Well, if you receiving the kick that had combined the punching force of that man, the pull of gravity, air resistance and kicker’s strength, you would be lying unconscious too.
Everyone was gasp and flabbergasted. As they thought, the one that fell down was not the self-proclaimed rookie but one of the famous adventurer. Because everyone still shocked, he urged the receptionist to started he registration.
“Um, sir…”
“Kagerou. Kagerou Ibuki. Just called me Kagerou.”
“Um, sure. Kagerou-san, please fill this registration form.”
“I can’t write.”
“Huh? Sorry, what is it again?”
“I can’t write my name well.”
“Seriously?”
The receptionist was in deep shocked. On this day she had shocked for many times already.
“Um, Why?”
“Well, I’m not a native here…”
“It’s okay we can still understand other language writing.”
“Really?”
Then he write his name, Kagerou Ibuki, in katakana guessing that it might work here. He hand his form to the receptionist-san. Receptionist who wasreading his form started to make a ridiculed face.
“Is this really your language? I’m unable to understand any of it!”
’Yeah, yeah. That’s why I don’t want to write. It was troublesome to explain it.’
“Only my clan does have that language writing and it seems like my clan doesn’t have any sort of relationship with outsider.”
“But, how can you speak… Do you perhaps using magic?”
“Yes, it was called [All Language Comprehension]. By using this magic, the caster can speak any language that the caster had never have speak before.”
“Amazing….”
The receptionist sent amazed gaze at him. But he was not proud of it because after all it was a lie.

“Then, does that magic can deal with writing?”
“No. This magic only using air vibration to send the voice wave, and by slightly changing the voice wave in the air, it will perfectly send the voice slightly different from usual and sent to the caster with the same wave as the caster.”
“Truly complex…your magic is.”
“Well, thanks.”
“Then please tell me your name is.”
“My name is, Kagerou Ibuki.”
“Then, what’s your age?”
“My age is 17.”
“But you look young.”
“Everyone told me so.”
“Okay, what job do you wish to specialize on?”
“Um, [Monster Extermination], [Monster Hunting] and [Travelling Escort].”
“Understood. Then what type of fighting style do you have?”
“Sword and Martial Art with a least of Magic.”
“Done. Now please wait for the registration, okay?”
He waiting at the counter while looking at his own status. And he not amazed by the new thing appeared in his status.

Persona Non Grata
After the events of Dr. Jose Rizal's second novel "El Filibusterismo", the story follows the tale of the former students Basilio and Isagani in the aftermath of the failed assassination plot against the most powerful governing political figures in the Delos Santos residence. Now a licensed doctor and a tenured businessman, Basilio and Isagani returns to the Philippines after their 10-year venture in Spain and in the United States to spearhead a large-scale project for the Spanish crown. For the first time in the history of the country, the Spanish government has allowed Indios to pioneer major public works, and the Filipinos, seeing this as major milestone of their race, welcomed it cheering and with open arms. It was also during that same year when the new Captain-General was appointed to the Philippines following the scandal involving the outgoing Captain-General, who sent an entire battalion of Indio conscripts to be deliberately slaughtered by a gang of tulisanes led by a man going by the name 'Matanglawin' (Falcon-eye). Leonardo Montes, the incoming Captain-General, was both feared and loved by his subjects. A close friend of the king and reputed for upholding honor, discipline and goodwill among his subjects, he won the confidence of the Cortes and of the Filipino people when political unrest arose during the tenure of his predecessor when he represented the Philippines in the high courts and won the case. However, Montes, now at the early days of his tenure, is faced with a huge and pressing problem: the widespread opium trade in the Philippines. Chinese immigration to the Philippines has increased at an exponential rate since his predecessor came to power and so is the circulation of the substance within the country. And to make matters worse, strange cases of killings and abductions began to terrorize the country, with the motives of the culprit unknown...

Of Righteous Evil
To wield the magical Arts. The power to manipulate nature itself. Follow Silas on his journey as he learns what it means to be a Mage. With war brewing on the horizon, Silas' plan to become a hero clashes with the harsh reality of conflict. Torn between contradicting emotions, he will have to reconsider his perceptions of both good and evil. Does the end truly never justify the means? Note from author (13.09.20): Sentences have been shortened, less commata used. Paragraphs have been split up. Meant to be "realistic" fantasy, with no overpowered protagonist or evil sorcerer trying to destroy the world. The focus lies on the characters, their progressions and their inner conflicts, coupled with an intricate magic system. Constructive criticism is highly appreciated!

Chapter 1 & 2 will be shown through reocurring dreams / nightmares. 10.08.21 Rewriting of the first arc is complete and has been proofread twice. Plot of rest of book one is 80% complete. Will publish chapters once first book is finished and proofread. 06.12.21 Second arc is finished (chapter 24/31-33). First draft will likely be finished around February, after which I will edit a few suggestions of my beta readers and publish it on RR.
