Ascension: Strongest Fateless Mage

The next day, Zevien gave Dan and Erica a white-rank magic crystal each and the last white-rank magic crystal to Vernisia, but they didn't absorb the magic crystals right away and saved it to use later when their magic power reached 400.

After all, white-rank magic crystals increased magic power by 10%, so if one used it at 100 magic power, they would gain 10. If one used it 400 magic power, they would gain 40. So it was better to use it later. Zevien also gave the magic armor and sword to Dan and told Dan to give the magic sword to Erica since she was a sword user.

…

Time passed as minutes turned into hours and hours into days…

Today, everyone was going to enter their magic labyrinth again, so Zevien and Vernisia didn't go to the academy but went to the Zenith Corp.

Zevien had built a large and luxurious penthouse on the top floor of this thirty-story building. The floor had his private room where he put all of his valuable things, and aside from him, nobody could enter as the lock required his cat form eye pattern to unlock.

In the luxurious room, Zevien and Vernisia sat down on a soft mattress with their eyes closed in meditation. After five seconds, both of them disappeared.

…

"Hmm? What the hell?" Euclion was dumbfounded when he saw that Zevien and Vernisia had entered their respective magic labyrinth. "Why? Could it be because they entered into their labyrinths at the same time?" He wondered with a doubtful gaze.

"Even if they didn't enter at the same time, they wouldn't be able to enter into each other's magic labyrinth for now," Baishen appeared beside Euclion and said while caressing his white beard, "I have checked everything regarding that phenomenon and the connection they formed."

Baishen sat down at the table before continuing, "they will need to evolve their magic core one time before they can get a call from each other's labyrinths. Even so, they will not be a part of that labyrinth's magic system. Moreover, they will not gain magic power while inside their partner's magic labyrinth. However, other things like getting resources, entering trials together, and such things are still possible."

"Ohh! Did you create a method already?" Euclion asked with shining eyes.

"I did," Baishen nodded with a smile as he took out a scroll, "two people need to learn this spell and use it on each other. Both need to be sincere, genuinely care for each other, and have absolute trust in each other. If even one thing is missing from those three, they will fail, and the connection won't form."

"Mhmm, that much is required for the connection to be formed," Euclion nodded before he looked at Baishen and asked, "when are you going to put that spell? It's better that you sneakily cause a phenomenon in Astral Land like the appearance of a giant mountain. People can enter inside for various trials, and the final reward will be this spell."

"Yeah, that's a good idea," Baishen nodded thoughtfully, "but I will create a cloud dungeon in the sky instead of a mountain. There will be ten trials, and all trials' final reward will be this spell."

"What about Gaia continent?" Euclion asked, "we should give this spell to people of Gaia continent as well since they can use it after their first magic core evolution."

"Then I'll go with the mountain phenomenon there," Baishen grinned, "a floating mountain in the Lankrena region appearing out of nowhere. The mountain will have ten caves. Each cave will have a different trial; the final reward will be this spell."

"Good enough," Euclion nodded.

…

Zevien arrived at the location where his chain led him after twenty minutes of entering the Violet Spectrum magic labyrinth.

The location he arrived at looked like an abandoned mansion with worn-out structures and rotten wooden furniture.

After entering this somewhat creepy mansion, Zevien followed the arrow of his chain and arrived inside a room in the mansion. The arrow-like string pointed straight at a weird rectangular mirror on the dressing table with a black wooden frame. The mirror was absolutely spotless despite everything being dirty and rotten in the whole mansion, hence the weirdness. There was not even a speck of dust on the mirror despite everything else being filled with dust.

"Mirror of Oz-fin? Is that the relic?" Zevien wondered as he got closer and stretched his hand towards the small mirror. Its size was just a bit bigger than an adult's palm.

Right at the moment when Zevien touched the mirror, his face changed as he felt a strange force fulling his body.

He tried to resist, but after two seconds, he was forcefully pulled into the mirror with strange powers.

=====================================================

[You have entered inside the Mirror of Oz-Fin. Find and defeat the mirage demon to obtain the relic: Mirror of Oz-Fin]

=====================================================

Zevien read the message in his head before he looked around at the strange place he was in. The ground was grassy, but there were big mirrors around him, and each mirror displayed different sceneries instead of reflections. They were not working as proper mirrors.

Even when Zevien stood in front of a mirror, it didn't reflect his image.

"How strange," Zevien muttered as he turned his head to the right to check the sceneries inside other mirrors, but when he looked to the side, something appeared in the mirror in front of him that he couldn't notice.

It was the mirage demon! It was a humanoid creature that didn't have an ounce of resemblance to a human. Its body covered in rotten flesh with an upside-down humanoid head. Its eyeballs were two round crystal balls, and its nails were like mirrors. It walked on a road depicted in the mirror and was approaching Zevien as it was getting bigger as it walked on the road.

However, Zevien suddenly turned his head to his front as he heard some sound and was startled to see the creepy demon.

*SKREEE!!*
