Our battle raged on, and now we were barely making any increases as we both realized our limits. "475,000 gems!" "480,000 gems!" The tension in the room was palpable as we neared the 500,000 mark. Our bidding increments had shrunk to mere thousands, a stark contrast to the impulsive dozens and hundreds of thousands at the beginning.

The auctioneer's flamboyant announcement echoed through the grand hall. "Here comes our first item!" The accompanying drumroll and lively orchestra amplified the drama of the moment.

"Does he really need to be so dramatic?" I muttered, bemused by the spectacle. But considering this was as much a show as it was an auction, the…

Arriving in Oresteia Gardens, I slowed my pace, mesmerized by the sight before me. The garden was breathtaking, a stunning array of exotic flora that seemed to encompass the entire world within its boundaries. In the game, the CGs for this place was already impressive, beautifully animated, but experiencing it in real life was something else entirely. The vivid colors, the fragrant air, the sheer vibrancy of the scene-it all made me eager to explore more picturesque places this world had to…

The term "GENIUS" had always trailed Rose like a persistent shadow, casting her world in the dull hues of a mundane nightmare. As she stood amidst the crowd, the air charged with anticipation, she could feel the weight of that word pressing down on her, shaping her perception of the world. "Fire!" The professor's command sliced through the expectant silence, and in response, a brilliant flash erupted from Rose's fingertips. It converged into a sphere of raw energy, crackling with power, before…

A red and black dragon, meticulously crafted with golden and white accents, stood in a fierce confrontation on the insignia adorning the letter. Its intricate design left no room for doubt; this was the family crest of none other than the illustrious Duke of Heavens, a figure of unparalleled power within our empire. As I chuckled to myself, a wry acknowledgment of the absurdity of my own reaction to a mere piece of correspondence, I couldn't deny the weight of the situation. When your fiancée…

Rolling out of bed, I made my way to the bathroom, splashing water on my face to wake myself up. It had been three days since the placement exam had concluded, yet I still struggled to settle into my daily routine. Each morning began with theoretical classes on magic, a subject that seemed somewhat out of place for us aspiring knights. However, as we soon learned, understanding magic was…

In the game, numerous descriptions highlighted Lucas's traits and personality, but one aspect always stood out: his extreme level of stubbornness, all in the name of justice. He'd go to great lengths to uphold what he believed was right, even if it meant risking his own life. He'd leap into danger without a second thought, whether it meant facing down a monster or challenging an opponent, all to protect others or achieve a single victory. And while this stubbornness did…

When Professor Ferdenand announced the commencement of the battle, it was only natural for some students to band together, especially if they were friends. Collaborating in a team offered distinct advantages over facing the challenge alone. Though it might lower their individual ranking in the professor's eyes, it was the most pragmatic approach in a battle royal where every participant posed a potential threat. As I observed the dynamics of the battlefield, it became apparent that there was a…
