My Muscle System in the Mage World

As the bulky man slowly made his way to Aur, a friendly smile graced his lips.

"This brother, can I help you?"

"Hmm, You are?" Aur looked at the man with a frown on his face.

"This brother, are you appraising these mana stones as well?" The man said with a smile.

Aur's frown deepened. "And you are?"

The bulky man's face cramped when he heard this. "This… since you are younger than me, I will call you younger brother. Younger brother, you are quite rude, however, since it is your first time, I will forgive you. My name is Gabriel."

"So?" Aur asked with an uncaring expression. "Why does your name concern me anyway?" His crimson gaze turned cold.

"Hey, younger brother, I meant no harm to you, just asking if you are one or not." Gabriel replied with a shrug.

Aur's eyes narrowed as he looked at the man before looking at the uneven structure of the purple stones.

"Are you ignoring me?" Gabriel asked, still keeping his calm and a smile.

However, Aur turned a deaf ear to it and instead looked at the crowd of people carefully, one by one, not missing anyone.

"Oh, where are you, Sebastian?" He thought with a smirk gradually forming on his face.

Seeing this, Gabriel couldn't contain his anger anymore.

"You dare ignore me, bastard." He roared while raising his right hand for a punch.

However, just then, Aur's crimson eyes focused on the man, dead in the eye.

A chill ran down Gabriel's body as he froze in place as if instinctively.

"How dare a mere mortal try to attack me." Aur extended his hand as his crimson eyes reflected a strange pattern of a circle which had a larger middle circle and four smaller circles which were connected to its surface.

He gently reached the man's head and gently flickered under the horror-filled eyes of Gabriel.

Boom!

A spark seemed to ignite in the air as Gabriel was sent hurtling into the air and almost crashed into the wall. However, just then, Aur appeared behind him instantly and created a wall containing the flung Gabriel.

Thud!

His body fell to the wall and went down, leaving a trail of blood.

Aur just had a nonchalant expression on his face as he swiped his hands as if his hand was in great pain.

The crowd looked at this with their eyes widened in horror, not at the miserable body of Gabriel but instead at Aur.

At that moment, Aur's badge of the academy, engraved in a silver plating, slightly revealed from his sleeves.

"A… a wizard from the academy."

One of the people loudly voiced which caused the entire group to erupt in chaos.

Not running away but running towards Aur with reverence in their eyes. However, after they reached a certain distance from Aur, they all stopped and immediately bowed in respect to him.

"We greet the wizard." They said in symphony with each other.

Aur looked at these silently with his crimson eyes glinting before he unfocused his gaze and looked at the purple stones that were in front of him again.

Seeing this, the crowd quickly dispersed itself as they remained silent, letting the appraisal do their work obediently without bickering with each other.

The unmoving body of Gabriel remained silently on the ground with no one even caring to check whether he was dead or not.

His head had burnt marks, and blood flowed violently from his head as he had suffered a concussion from crashing into the wall.

Suddenly, Aur looked behind him and said with a smile on his face, "You can take him away." His expression was uncaring.

"Thank you, young master." Two servants came from inside the shops and dragged the body of the man away from the market with a cold expression on their face.

Aur's mouth curled up seeing this, however, he remained silent.

"As long as I don't cause any harm to the merchants here, even if I kill a few people, it wouldn't make a difference." Aur thought with his crimson eyes narrowing.

These crowds of people were all wealthy individuals who usually hired the appraisal and let them choose the mana stones which have the highest chance of being treasure inside the stone.

If there is one, both parties would be happy, and these rich people will compensate the other party as well. However, if it is a null, then the consequences would be terrifying to say the least.

Upon the failure, there was a contract they had to sign before they do the appraisal, and the punishment for it could vary, but it at least made it so that these individuals wouldn't incur much loss.

Why would they do such a job?

Because these appraisals were all from a rather poor background and had come here in the hopes of making it big. Some might not even know how to appraise the purple stones at all and only try their luck.

"Luckily, that lord really saved us from the pressure they were putting us through." Victor was one such individual who had some knowledge about the mana stones and wanted to try his luck.

However, he didn't expect the pressure would be too high. When he was signing the contract, the person was all smiles, but the moment he shined, the person showed his true colors.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but curse his naive mind about it.

"Can I get some help from that lord? He looks relatively young."

His eyes flashed with determination as he gritted his teeth. "I will have to lose my two livers if I can't take a treasure out of the ten purple mana stones I chose. It's better than dying miserably."

Slowly, Victor tentatively started to look for the purple stone as he walked here and there as if he was onto something, but every time he moved, he was silently getting closer to Aur.

One of the people wanted to stop him, however, he was quickly stopped by the others.

"Let him be the guinea pig."
