Guy wasn't the least bit surprised in learning that dyslexia existed in this magical new world. It was common back on Earth, and Guy figured that since base humans had evolved to a similar stage in this world, certain neurological conditions, developmental disorders, and mental illnesses should also be equally present. What did surprise him, though, was that there were little to no remedies or treatments to those problems in this world? After all, given how magic and mana was commonplace here, it wouldn't…

"So you're saying that there are particles smaller than an atom? That doesn't make sense. I thought the atom was the smallest possible division of matter," Markus commented. "You are right. Atom is the smallest division of 'matter'. The particles that make up the atom, or subatomic particles, give the atom its specific properties. They don't have any material properties if that makes any sense. They are usually defined by their quantum states, which is a probabilistic measurement as we cannot know for…

Guy's timely intervention may have saved Markus, but it unwittingly dropped him into Grace's warpath. "You! Fix this!" She demanded. "I can't force him to do anything," Guy replied apologetically. "Then why are you even here?" Guy looked at Markus, who understood the gaze and chimed in, "I invited Master to stay with us for the time being, since he's out of a job." "We can't afford to house a lodger!" Grace denied immediately. Before Markus could interject and plead his case, Guy decided to take the…

Guy stared incredulously at the visage glaring back at him. The resemblance was eerily uncanny. 'She's exactly like Grace when I first met her!' The myriad of travels he and Grace undertook since their early twenties back on Earth had affected her physically and emotionally. Before they began their venture, she used to have a more cold and fenced off aura that dissuaded others from approaching her. It was only after getting to know her at a personal level that Guy realised the underlying reason for her…

"Oh no! I'm so screwed!" Krish exclaimed in fear. What could cause an invincible powerhouse in the Tesseract Transformation realm to shiver in their boots? An immensely auspicious golden aura had enveloped the village, a large portion of the mountain range containing Mount Tai, as well as the forest in its immediate vicinity! As a reference, the brighter the aura appears through the Heavenly Eye, the greater the fortune. And the golden aura hanging over the area was so bright Krish was having difficulty…

What is immortality? Is it to transcend mortality as an idea - an unwavering will and resolve? Or is it to literally transcend the bonds of mortality, and live for an eternity? Both concepts are achievable in this world of magic. A mage can immortalise their sense of existence as an abstract thought through Ascension, or become unaging and eternal by reaching the Tesseract Transformation realm. The Tesseract Transformation realm is the pinnacle achieved by any mage on their paths. To reach it, they need…

"I'm sorry, Marie. But I can't tutor them anymore!" "Please, Miss. You're the only teacher in this village. You know just as well as I, the value of literacy in this world. Can you please do it for me, your oldest student?" Marie Reva responded while enlarging her eyes to appear pitiful. The aged woman before her sighed and responded, "Look. It's not that I don't want to teach those twins. It's just that... How can I put this lightly... maybe the path of literacy isn't in their fates?" Marie lowered…

"It seems that I can no longer work as a teacher in this world," Guy lamented as he cautiously plopped down on the bed in his room. He had only just used his magic to expel the dust that was caked on all the furniture in the room. Unwittingly, he had collapsed a few of them in the process as they were on their last limbs. (You could try again in another state?) Mast suggested with some uncertainty. 'That won't work. I've been blacklisted! Even if I occlude by identity, they'll figure it out sooner or…

Markus woke up from his coma groggily. "What... happened?" He uttered with difficulty. "Boss!" Four familiar voices greeted him loudly. Markus supported himself and sat up against the bed's backboard. "Where am I?" "You're in the infirmary, Boss!" "Take it easy. I'll go call the nurse." Markus rubbed his eyes and looked around. After localising himself, he realised that he was currently in the Academy's infirmary. This wasn't his first time here after all - the four individuals next to him had sent…

Guy Larks cursed his bad luck the moment the referee declared the match-up. 'I'm up against Jo Way, right off the bat? Why?' No matter how hard Guy tried to distance himself from the agent of misfortune, he'd always end up getting drawn into the man's path of destruction. 'It's as if the whole world is revolving around him!' (It's all a coincidence...) Mast would often reiterate in his mind. 'I'd agree with you if it was the one time. But this? This whole thing reeks, I tell ya!' (But it really is a…
