My Muscle System in the Mage World

"Marriage?" Aur asked with an expressionless face.

"Hahaha, you have already reached the age where you can be called a young adult. It's time for you to get married," the second elder said casually, looking at Aur with a smile.

"You have seen my daughter, right?"

"Eh, no?" Aur said with a clueless expression on his face.

"Really?" The second elder was a little stunned.

"Yes, Second Elder," Aur nodded with a serious expression.

The second elder looked at the serious and honest expression on Aur's face and suddenly asked, "Who did you get the resources that I gave you from?"

"Elder sister Naomi," Aur nonchalantly replied.

The second elder looked amused just seeing Aur.

"Eh, could it be…" Aur said with an incredulous expression.

"Haha," the second elder burst out in laughter, "you are correct, Aur. She is my daughter. You must not have known, which is why you attacked her."

Aur's expression turned grave when he heard these. "I am—"

"You don't have to, you are already an Elder after all," the second elder said with a satisfied expression on his face. "So, what do you think of Naomi?"

Aur had a serious expression as he tried to remember, and his cheeks turned slightly red. "Very beautiful. Although I fought her only because I thought she was plotting against me, she is a beauty."

"Haha, you like her then it's settled," the second elder clapped his hand.

"But what about her feelings?" Aur asked with an earnest expression.

Stay informed at m-vl-em,pyr

"Don't worry about her, just prepare the wedding gown. The marriage is already settled and will happen in a month's time."

The second elder stood up with a smile.

"Second elder, you are already leaving? Lucy just prepared tea for you."

"Some other time," his voice fell, and his figure suddenly vanished right in front of Aur's eyes.

Aur's eyes flickered, and he took the tea prepared by Lucy.

"Young master?"

"You can leave now."

"Yes," Lucy respectfully bowed and left the room.

The corners of his lips raised as a sneer gradually formed in his face.

"How interesting, a marriage, huh…" he thought.

The only reason Aur had been so gullible to accept was because he needed some backing himself.

Even though his physique had reached the peak of tier one, he had no clue when he would be able to advance further. Until then, would he really be targeted by the other old fogies?

Since he had taken the food right in front of these old geezers, it was inevitable to crash into this old bastard, especially that Aiden who had a feud with his parents. It didn't take a genius to guess that he would be the one to strike first.

Although Aur hadn't tested his strength yet, he was confident he could match the old man's strength evenly.

However, killing him and being evenly matched was another problem.

With his combat experience much richer than his own, Aur would find it difficult to deal with him. Besides, what if he came prepared and with others?

Then Aur would be thoroughly in trouble.

So having a backing was always necessary for protection against these old fogies. As for marriage, he didn't really care if it happened or not.

…

In the wilderness a lone woman with the dress of an instructor ran in a hurried pace her breathing ragged and her entire clothes were soaked in blood, not only that her right arm was mutilated but she was still running with her eyes widened in sheer terror as if her entire purpose was running.

Huff huff!

Even from her mutilated hand, she felt a mind numbing pain however she didn't stop running even for a second.

"I need to tell the village." she muttered with an expression full of horror.

Seeing the village in the distance her eyes instantly lit up charging forward without hesitation.

But just as she was about to reach the place she heard a gust of wind from behind her sending her crashing towards the tree.

Boom!

She vomited a mouthful of blood and looked forward with utter despair.

"You-"

Cruch!

Her entire head was directly eaten with the sound of the bone chewing sound resounding throughout the forest.

Awwooo!

…

Noah's office, which was usually filled with liveliness, now had a heavy atmosphere.

There were no servants or guards outside his office, who usually managed it all the time, making it look deserted. However, inside the office, almost every single elder was present, their expressions grim as they looked at the headless corpses lying on the floor.

"Leader, is this a sign of a beast tide?"

"The beast tide happened just five years ago, and it shouldn't happen so soon. It's impossible."

"But the beasts in the forest have unusually become vacant in the last year. Any ferocious beast could rarely be spotted in the outer area. Even the students who went to do the quest couldn't find anything—no herbs, no insects, and no beasts. It's as if the entire forest has become lifeless. These are major signs when a beast tide occurs."

"You are right, but the beast tide usually forms in at least two decades, and not even half a decade has passed yet."

Noah raised his hand with a cold expression on his face. "Silent."

Immediately, the elders stopped discussing, glancing at each other.

Noah rubbed his temple as he sighed. "First elder, although we wanted to wage war on the other village, for now, it might be appropriate to settle these problems first." Noah looked meaningfully at the first elder.

"Yes, Leader," the first elder said with a respectful expression.

"Good," Noah nodded with a smile. "First of all, let's investigate these corpses. If all the signs point to a beast tide, then we must be careful. The aggression on the other four villages must be immediately stopped. Whether we can survive the calamity of a beast tide is still unknown if it really is a beast tide.

Don't forget, my master, a Tier Three wizard, also died in these beast tides just a half decade ago."
