My Muscle System in the Mage World

"You said that there is no involvement of the village with the murderer of the tenth master?"

"Yes, it is true, young master," William spoke deeply, lowering his gaze, his eyes bloodshot and hidden beneath it.

Maurice smiled mysteriously.

"How many days has it been already?"

"It has been two months already," William replied.

"Two months, huh…" Maurice thoughtfully nodded his head.

"Are you sure that someone in the village isn't the killer?"

William silently shook his head. "No, young master, there is no one in the village who has such skills to fight. Since they could even kill three tier two wizards, then their strength must be at least at the peak of tier two."

"You are right. For your village, there are only three people who could do this, other than your village leader Noah. I could believe it, seeing how pathetic their village is. It is no wonder," Maurice said with a chuckle.

William's expression slightly changed.

"However," a mysterious smile appeared on his face, "what about Aur?"

The moment William heard the word "Aur," cold sweat dripped down from his forehead.

William actually knew that Aur had done this and should even be an accomplice in killing the alchemist Elmer and the tenth master, but Noah had coaxed him to protect Aur at all costs.

"For the greater good of the village, we must protect Aur, otherwise, we will all die with him."

These words were spoken by Noah, which still made his heart tighten with injustice.

But no matter how much injustice he was filled with, he needed to lead this cocky brat, Maurice.

"Aur?" William looked cluelessly at him, completely surprised.

"Yes, Aur," Maurice said, with his hand on the table tightening.

"Aur has already defected from the village after killing so many people. He is a devil in human clothes, a heartless bastard who should be killed, but he doesn't have the strength to kill a tier two wizard," William reasoned calmly.

"It has barely been four years or so since he has awakened. Even the young master has not reached the tier two realm yet. How could Aur be able to reach it unless the young master thinks that he is more talented than you?"

Maurice nodded his head with his brows knitted together.

"You can leave."

"Alright." William bowed as he left the place. After coming out, he smashed the ground hard before leaving with bloodshot eyes.

"I am going to reach tier two wizard soon. At that time, let's see how that brat thinks after I reach it before he does," a smug smile appeared on his face.

Maurice looked at the back of William as he left with narrowed eyes.

He too left the place, coming to the door in front of him and directly bowed.

"What is it, Maurice?" a deep, magnetic female voice rang in his ears.

"Master, I am confused."

"What is your confusion? Tell me in detail calmly?"

"Aur seems to be the most suspect in the murder of the tenth master; however, at the same time, he doesn't have the strength to accomplish such a task of killing tier two wizards."

"Oh, tell me all the things that have happened until now."

"Yes, master." Then Maurice started to narrate the entire story to his master, one by one.

Thelma, who was lazily lying inside the room, smiled mysteriously.

"Remember, this is an exam, so act like it's an exam. You cannot get any external help. If after two months you have just found this, then I am disappointed in you for this."

"Master, I am sorry, but I am ninety percent sure that Aur did kill him. As for how, I don't know." Maurice shook his head. "There are traces of the evidence being removed, so I suspect even the village is involved in this matter."

"Very well then, I will give you one hint. If you can capitalize on it, you can take this opportunity to break through. If not, then I cannot help you."

Maurice's eyes lit up. "What is it, master?"

"If one cannot kill, that doesn't mean he couldn't have other external measures. Aur is an alchemist, right?"

Maurice's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"I am tired now."

"Thank you, master." Maurice hurriedly bowed before leaving the place, his eyes seemed to be enlightened.

Why didn't he think that Aur could have a helper? With his status as an alchemist, then he might really be the murderer. Thinking of this, Maurice felt really helpless.

"I still have a lot to learn." Maurice smiled bitterly. "But I still need some evidence…"

While Maurice left, Thelma slowly opened her eyes, standing up from her bed, her gaze looking at a particular distance.

"A tier four wizard?" her eyes flashed with a strange light.

"Is this the person who took care of the beast tide?" Chapter Read:

The real reason that she came to the village was actually to identify the unknown tier four wizard that had appeared in the village, solving the beast tide single-handedly.

Otherwise, with the strength of these villages, they could never have the capability to defeat a mutated monster whose spirit was almost complete.

An unknown tier four wizard appearing so near their territory was definitely a threat they couldn't ignore.

Even to the Divine Order Sect, tier four wizards were still the higher combat power in the place revered by countless.

Thinking of this, her eyes were filled with interest.

"This guy should be a runaway…" she chuckled. "Too bad we have already cancelled out all of nature's refinement here. Now nature can't produce any lifespan spell in these spells, so he would die without our intervention. There is no need to waste our combat power."

"We should leave these places soon. There's no point staying here any longer. If he doesn't move out, then he will die out of old age anyway, on top of these places which cannot produce resources of his level to improve his strength."

Thelma stood up from the bed, twisting her thin waist as she left the place, while pursing her lips.

"Let's wait a little longer and see if he could find evidence against that guy Aur. If he could, then we would leave. It is definitely because I am not lazy and like to procrastinate."

…

Aur came out from the bathroom fully refreshed.

"A cold bath can really refresh your brain," he muttered, satisfied.

Of course, this cold bath he mentioned was from his own five elemental spell because normal water would just evaporate upon contact with his skin.

This was a natural body temperature that he emitted, strong enough to evaporate water.

Although Aur could control it, it didn't mean he could feel any of that cooling water at all.

Thinking of this, he shook his head and went outside after wearing a new pair of wizard tier one cloak.

With his wealth, he could be considered one of the wealthiest persons in these villages already, although he has been in hiding for long, except for no one to care for him and this abandoned house, which was in tatters, barely livable. Nothing has changed in his life.

Only training and training has been his daily life, which he very much enjoys, especially doing daily quests and refining spells.

Comprehending spells was a wonderful journey that made him truly feel the vastness of the world, except for the exhaustion he felt towards his spirit after continuous long-time comprehension; this was like a mystical journey on its own.

At least for Aur, it was, because he didn't have such magical things in his previous world.

Then he has gotten these things that could essentially allow one to live for eternity, be omnipotent, and omniscient.

He didn't know if this could lead him to such a thing, but Aur was determined to walk into it because why not?

Aur has completely finished living the life of a mortal in his previous life. The only thing that made him hesitant was his family, whom he could never bear to part with, and now they are dead.

So the only thing left was to reach that unknown place.

People could call Aur a slave to power, a cruel, heartless beast with no emotion.

Aur would only sneer at them. Call him whatever they want, he would never stop his pursuit.

This was what he truly wanted.

While thinking of this, he slowly got out of the abandoned house and basked in the sunlight. The warm gamma rays were shining on his face, but he didn't even blink his eyes as he went towards Earl.

"Aur, you finally here?" Earl's eyes brightened as he smiled amicably.

Aur just nodded indifferently.

"Have you brought the potions?"

"Yes."

Aur casually handed five mana gathering and five mana recovery potions to him.

"Not bad, the quality seemed to have improved by a margin." Earl squinted his gaze, looking at the potions filled with spirituality.

"I have improved over time," Aur lightly said.

Earl looked around as if he wanted to say something, and then his brows slightly condensed, his tone becoming serious.

"Aur, it's time. Prepare for the fight."

"Already?" Aur looked a little surprised.

"Yes."
