Alex found himself sleeping on the ground beneath a huge tree. Rubbing his eye, Alex stood up and checked his surroundings. When he did, he was shocked to see a huge town a few kilometers away from him. Alex was mesmerized by the beautiful view. If he had a camera, he would want to capture these moments. Alex took a deep breath to get a taste of fresh air.
"What a beautiful town. It sure is a magical world" Alex said
[Hello host]
A voice rang in Alex's head and Alex was jolted awake from his concentration. "Are you the system?"
[Yes, host, I am the system responsible for helping the host in his magical journey]
"What kind of system are you?"
[I am a magical academy system, host. I am responsible for helping the host create his own force through the academy]
"Can you show me my attributes system" Alex said
[OK host]
[Name: Alex Smith
Age: 14
Height: 5.7ft
Magic Rank: None
Magic affinity: Dark magic
Magic talent: Peak
Shop: Locked
Magic coins: None]
Alex carefully examined his status and was thrilled to find out that he had an affinity for dark magic. Who doesn't dream about becoming a dark mage in their life? Novel readers prefer dark mages then light mages.
"System, don't I have any beginner rewards to start with" Alex said
[Do you want to claim the beginner rewards host]
"Who doesn't want to claim their rewards? Claim"
[Congratulations host for getting a magic Academy building, magic academy headmaster clothes, magic academy student clothes, strength tester, basic magic knowledge, and 10 storage rings]
Alex closed his eyes and started to digest all the basic knowledge about magic. After some time Alex opened his eyes. There was a new glow in his eyes as a sage who had vast knowledge about this world.
"That was helpful. System, where am I going to place this building? Can I just place it anywhere I like? " Alex said
[Yes, host, you can place it wherever you want but I would recommend it to be far away from human settlements to stop unnecessary trouble]
" Let's think about that later. First, I will visit this town. Hey system, can you check another person's talents" Alex said
[I can host]
"Good, I want you to notify me if you find someone with magic talent who is below the age of 14. A magician's journey starts when they become 14 years old. I want to take as many as I can so that I won't come again to look for talents"
[Orders received, host]
"How do I put on the headmaster's clothes, system?"
[Host, You just have to think about it]
"Think about it. Let's see. Like this" Alex said
Ale'x clothes got switched instantly. The new clothes were pure black with a dragon on the back. Alex with a handsome face looked more dashing then anyone.
"Can you show me its functions, system"
[Item Name: Black dragon robe
Durability: infinity/infinity
Function: Makes the host invisible]
"Now that I have changed my clothes. Let's explore this world." Alex said as he began heading towards the town
As Alex got near the town gate. He could see a lot of carriages carrying goods. "So those are merchant"
Alex could see two bulky guards standing beside the gate carrying swords. To not attract any attention, Alex had already made himself invisible. Alex easily bypassed the guards with his robe, and finally Alex could see the town upclose.
"It's more beautiful upclose. Fresh air permeates the surroundings. Sigh, I don't know how I could breathe the air on Earth. (stomach rumbles) I haven't eaten anything since I came here. But I also don't have any money. I am gonna die of hunger at this rate. System, can you help me " Alex said clutching his stomach
[Host doesn't have any magic coins to buy from the shop]
"Sigh, how do I earn magic coins then. Don't be a dickhead, system. I am gonna die of hunger. Can I make a loan" Alex said
[For the host's sake, the system will give 100 magic coins for free. Ding, congratulations, host, for unlocking the shop. Exchange rate of magic coins: 1 magic coin = 1 silver coin]
"System, exchange all 100 magic coins for silver coins. Let's taste something of this world first"
[Ding, Exchanged money is inside the host robe]
"Now the problem of money has been solved. Let's go to a tavern for rest and something to eat"
Alex strolled around the town. He would see some warriors but he never saw a mage. 'It looks like mages don't wander around this kind of place,' Alex thought. As Alex saw a symbol of a tavern. Alex went around a corner, disabled his robes' invisibility, changed to his original clothes, and got back on the road. As Alex entered the tavern he could see other people talking to each other. Some people looked at Alex for a moment but looked away.
Alex went towards the tavern lady, who looked around the age of 30.
"I want to book a room and food should be brought to my romm" Alex said
"10 copper coins for a day alongside food," the tavern lady said, bringing out a key from the drawer and placing it in front of Alex. Alex took out one silver coin from his pocket and placed it in front of the tavern lady.
"For five days" Alex took the keys and went to his room and relaxed on the bed.
"Finally I can get some rest. A lot of things happened tonight. Sometimes I even think this is a dream. System, are you still here?"
[Yes, host, I am always with you]
There was a knock on the door, "Come in. A young lady brought some food and placed it on the table.
"Sir, if you need anything you can call me anytime"
"I would like to take a warm bath. Can you heat it for me" Alex said
"The bath will be ready in half an hour," The girl said and took her stuff and went back.
'Let's eat something first' Alex thought
