The Undetectable Strongest Job: Rule Breaker Chapter 73
Troubling News from Mikhail
The patrons stirred as soon as Mikhail appeared.
「Hey, isn’t that Mikhail the Superhuman?」
「Yeah. The guy who crushed five Orcs alone.」
「The warrior from Jarazack.」
「An elite professor? What’s he doing in a run-down tavern?」
Mikhail was apparently famous.
「It’s not run-down.」the master muttered under his breath.
Not aware of the people’s reactions, Mikhail barged in and marched straight to a stool beside Hikaru.
「I didn’t believe it when I heard Professor Mille was reformed…」Mikhail said, eyeing Mille’s drinking cup. 「You’re binge drinking in the middle of the day! Nothing’s changed!」
「I’m not! This is my reward! Just one cup!」
「That’s your third cup, though!」one of the customers cut in.
「…Hikaru. This is for your own good. It’s not too late to study great swords…」
「Give it a rest, gramps. I told you I will not study great swords.」
The customers gasped as they watched Hikaru be rude to Mikhail. Even Mille caught her breath.
「H-Hikaru. Don’t pick a fight with Professor Mikhail. Nothing good will come out of it. He’s scary. He gave arrogant students hell, swung his sword around during class and destroyed a cabin, killed five Orcs while out on an off-campus training.」Mille said.
「Wow… you’re hopeless, gramps.」
「Stop calling me gramps. I’m a professor in the academy you attend.」
It would seem Hikaru hurt his feelings.
「Okay. As I have mentioned a number of times, the great sword is not for me. I must ask you to leave.」Hikaru said.
「It just feels creepy when you become polite all of a sudden.」
「Make up your mind, sheesh.」
「Great swords are more powerful than short swords. Gifted individuals should study great swords. This country can’t afford to waste such talent.」

「He’s right, Hikaru. You should listen to him.」For some reason, Mille urged him as well. If he had to guess, she just wanted to go back to goofing off.
「I’m not even a citizen of this country. I’ll live however I want.」
「Oh, come on. I’m begging you.」Mikhail pleaded.
「Hey, he’s begging to that kid!」
「Just how much power does a bartender hold?」
「He’s probably drawn in by the drinks.」
Onlookers were whispering to each other.
「I’m the one who got you in as a scholarship student. It’s kinda bad for my image when you’re not studying under me.」
「Oh, so you’re the one who dragged him into the academy.」Mille remarked.
「He didn’t “drag” me into anything. Please watch what you say, okay, Professor Mille?」
「Eek! You’re smiling, but your eyes are not!」
「Hikaru. You’re not manipulating Professor Mille through fear, are you?」Mikhail asked.
「No, I’m not. That sounds awful. I’m simply managing her health. Right?」
「Eek!」
「See?」
「I don’t think that “eek” just now was a “yes”.」Mikhail said.
The onlookers nodded.
「Well, if you really don’t want to study the great sword, then there’s nothing I can do. I concede. But one of the students said something troubling…」
「You mean one of your students?」
「Yes.」Mikhail replied with a sour look on his face.
「Professor! You’re here!」
Hikaru was about to ask Mikhail more questions, when the door burst open, revealing young, well-built men standing outside. They were probably the students Mikhail just mentioned. Hikaru realized not all of them were from Jarazack. One of them — a familiar face — was not hairy at all.
「It’s you!」
Roy “Yellow Tiger” Rumania. The guy from the Adventurers Guild. According to League, his family got rid of him by tossing him into the academy.

「Oh, you know each other, Hikaru?」Mikhail asked.
「Not really. More like I beat him up.」
Mikhail looked astounded.
「Professor! You used your recommendation quota on this coward?! I don’t believe it!」Roy protested.
「What do you mean?」the professor asked.
「When I, a member of the Yellow Tiger clan, came to talk to him, he sucker-punched me!」
「Goodness…」
「Can’t let him get away with that.」
Rage filled the men’s eyes.
「Hey, gramps.」Hikaru said.
「This is not my fault. You brought this upon yourself.」Mikhail replied.
「Well, you brought them here.」
「You’re calling the professor “gramps”?!」
Roy and the others stepped into the tavern, immediately surrounding Hikaru, Mikhail, and Mille. Mille was about to run with cup and pasta in hand when Hikaru grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back.
「Professor Mikhail! I don’t understand! Why did you vouch for this rude brat?! 」
「You’re from Rumania, right? Are you sure you should be studying under someone from Jarazack?」Hikaru asked.
「Th-There’s nothing wrong with learning from s-someone strong…」Roy answered.
He was stuttering. League, who was from the Green Ogre clan, struggled before arriving at the decision to study under the researcher from Kotobi. Roy should be having trouble as well.
Oh, that’s right. He got kicked from his home. So he cast away his pride and identity to become stronger.
Roy beat League to it. Not bad, Hikaru thought. He checked Roy’s Soul Board to find only one point on Strength and none on Weapon Mastery.
「I don’t mean to be nosy, but perhaps you should study magic instead of great swords.」
「What?!」
「You seem suited for it…」
「Sh-Shut up! Shut up!」Roy shouted, his face red. It appeared Hikaru had said something uncalled-for.
「How’d you know? You’re right. Roy has aptitude for magic.」Mikhail whispered in Hikaru’s ear.
「Then urge him to study magic.」
「The academy’s motto is Independence and Self-respect. Apparently his elder brother is a master of great swords and he wants to beat him or something.」
「Ah…」
So he has an inferiority complex against his brother back at home.
「Let’s fight, you and me! A legit, fair and square showdown!」Roy exclaimed, pointing at Hikaru.
「I see no reason why I should accept.」
「Shut up, kid. You’re nothing but a dirt-poor bastard hanging out in this shabby pub!」
「It’s not shabby.」the master said sharply.
「I’m just telling it like it is. This place is the perfect example of a cheap and nasty place.」
「…Hey.」Hikaru said coldly.
Mille shrieked.
「You can badmouth Professor Mille or Mikhail all you want, but I won’t let you insult this tavern.」
「Wh-What?」
「Fine. You’re on. I’ll show you just how good the master is.」
「Ha! Bring it on! Let’s take this outside.」
Roy walked out triumphantly. Hikaru, Mikhail, and the other men followed.
「Are they having a cooking contest?」the master muttered.
「I don’t care! If something happens, I’m putting all the blame on Professor Mikhail! Master, one more cup please! I can’t go on like this.」
「Nice try taking advantage of the mess to get a fourth cup. No can do.」
「Please!」
「You have an agreement with Hikaru.」
「Why are you siding with him when I’m the regular customer?!」
「Just go out and watch them!」
The master drove Mille out of the tavern.

The Chronicle of a Witch
It is a story about a young girl that abruptly transmigrated into the body of another young girl (at least in appearance) in another world filled with Magic. She notices that she becomes a Dungeon Master and for a thousand years... she lives a lazy life. However, one day, she lost all of her power and she is kicked out of her Dungeon! And the world's changed that video games level and classes governed the power system of the new world! What will she do as a weak and fragile girl? Will she get her power back? How will she survive in the harsh world? Author's note: I will update daily if possible and each chapter is around 2,000 words. Gores, Sexual Contents, and Traumatising Contents are limited and I try my best not to write them. However, for the progress of the story, I can't help but write some of them in the latter part of the story. However, don't expect them too much ^_^ English is not my native language, so there might be grammatical errors (maybe a lot), but I'll try to fix them, so constructive critiques will be appreciated (^_^)

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
