My Muscle System in the Mage World

"What is your name, brother?" William said with a smile on his face.

"My name is Aur," Aur replied.

"I hope you can go easy on me, Brother Aur. I am already exhausted, as you can see, and I don't have the strength to continue," William shrugged.

Aur's eyes narrowed as he carefully scrutinised him before shaking his head with pity.

"Why are you looking at me like that, Aur?" William asked.

"Nothing," Aur just shook his head with disappointment.

"You two little pieces of shit. Are you going to fight or not?" Jonathan roared loudly.

"Yes, yes," they both said in unison.

"Good, I will count from three to one, and you will begin." He raised his hands and showed three fingers.

"Three," two fingers.

"One." Jonathan smirked and closed all his fingers in a fist.

"Huh." William was stunned as a giant fist came right at his face.

Boom!

He was sent crashing into the wall.

Silence. Everyone was in stunned silence, as if their brains were processing things.

"Trash," Aur muttered in disappointment.

"You…" William's voice came as the dust settled, revealing the golden-haired boy who was seething in rage.

"Oh, you are still left standing?" Aur looked at William with surprise.

William gritted his teeth; however, a glint of horror reflected in his eyes. He couldn't even see how Aur had attacked him.

"Let's fight then." William loudly muttered with a roar. However, internally, William was in deep contemplation.

"Hey, Asmodeus, you can hide my spell being activated, right?" he muttered in his head.

"Yes." Asmodeus' cold voice rang in his head, causing him to be excited.

"However, what makes you think I will lend you my power?..."

"Master, I can cover it for you." Asmodeus' voice was cut off by the excited voice of the book.

Upon hearing this, William's eyes brightened, and with no hesitation whatsoever, the circle started to rotate in his mental space, slowly absorbing his colourless Mana. William's eyes turned slightly dark before returning from the glowing back to his normal blue.

"Tier one: True Devil Pupils."

William looked at the one or two blue lines which connected with his fist, aiming at Aur.

Death line was a terrifying special ability of the True Devil Pupils, allowing the caster to see the best possible path for killing the living being whom the caster focuses on. When the caster followed these lines, it guaranteed their chance of killing the targeted individual.

It was like a prediction; however, the focus was on the death of the targeted individual, exploring countless possibilities to ensure their demise. It resembled an inferior version of future sight where one could perceive all the movements in the future, but here it only led to the death line of the being, a line that might change.

"So these are the death lines?" Williams muttered as he followed those blue lines with his fist, reaching Aur directly in moments according to the different position of the being.

"Now we have leveled the playing field," he muttered with a smirk. Since Williams was exhausted and not as physically strong as Aur, he believed these factors would make it fair, at least in his understanding.

"Huh," Aur looked at the punch coming for him, with his crimson eyes widened.

He pressed his leg muscles to work in full force as he pushed against the floor, sending himself backward and narrowly avoiding the punch as it zoomed past his vital region.

William followed up with another leg kick directly to his knee.

Dong!

Aur legs' muscles cramped, making his legs unbalanced.

Just then, William's left hook punched Aur, sending him crashing into the wall.

"Got him." A sneer formed on his face; however, his left hand hurt, as if William had hit metal instead of Aur, which caused him to frown. Suddenly, he felt an ominous feeling.

"Let's fight to our hearts' content, then…" Aur's eyes glinted as he revealed himself completely unscratched.

With a sneer, he left afterimages and punched again, same as before; however, it seemed eerily slow for some reason.

William's eyes narrowed as he looked at Aur's; however, a sneer formed on his face.

"No matter what you do, I can see your death points…"

His fist blindly travelled along the blue lines. However, just as it was about to connect, the blue lines suddenly changed direction.

"Eh."

Boom!

William was sent flying as the wall cracked with the sheer pressure.

Aur just stood there with narrowed eyes.

"The fight isn't over yet," William roared as a terrifying aura erupted, and a small smile appeared on his face. With his aura erupting, everything about his physique improved exponentially – from blood flow to his strength and even his five senses, reaching new heights.

Aur just stood there with a cold gaze.

"With my vital spell and my aura, I don't believe I can lose…" William gritted his teeth.

"You can," Asmodeus' cold voice rang in his ears, but William fully ignored it as he charged forward with the blue line guiding him to the death points of Aur.

"Do you think you are the only one who has an aura…" Aur's cold voice resounded throughout the room as his aura also erupted more terrifying than William's by a large margin, his Aura covered the entire room in a heavy pressure causing everyone to feel disoriented.

William's eyes widened as the blue death point changed again.

His vision turned blank.

Thud!

He fell to the floor with closed eyes.

Aur had casually back-karate-chopped Williams, causing him to faint.

"The match is over; Aur has won."

Jonathan's roar snapped everyone out of their thoughts, and they erupted with whispers among themselves.

"Eh, that was quick…"

Everyone's eyes were widened.

Although the fight might have seemed long, in actuality, it only lasted for a couple of minutes.

But the end result was disappointing, with Aur knocking down Williams like all his previous opponents.

"Congratulations, Aur. You have won the battle." Jonathan coldly looked around as he walked up and looked at Aur with surprise in his gaze.

Aur just nodded with an expressionless face.

"This kid is definitely interesting, and I have already fulfilled the task of the leader…" Jonathan looked at William, who was lying flat on the ground, with a glint in his eyes.

"If you have a favour, just ask me; I will do it to the best of my ability," Jonathan whispered in Aur's ear as he looked back.

Aur just looked at Jonathan with a strange glint in his eyes.

"Now, Jack and Henry will fight, and the man who wins will then fight Aur," Jonathan said as they instantly stopped their whispers.

Aur went to the side and watched the entire match silently while people came with stretchers and picked up Williams and walked outside.

Unlike the fight with Aur and William, which progressed at a quick pace with the winner decided in minutes, Jack and the third elder's son, Henry, took their sweet time fighting.

At first, they gauged each other for ten minutes, and then they started to fight seriously, but that too while taking safety measures.

By the time they were done, it was already an hour, with Jack coming out on top naturally.

Aur looked at all this with a yawn as he thought, "Well, relying on William to solve the problem of the beast tide is not possible."

He had a hunch that William was using a spell to predict Aur's movements and counter by attacking his blind spot. If Aur didn't have the advantage of physique against William, he would have lost that battle quite miserably.

And the most important point is that William was a hypocrite at best with a narrow mind, judging by his behaviour.

Aur wouldn't nurture such a person. His personality was oddly similar to his previous life brother, Valek, and that was the main reason he didn't want to.

"However, I can exploit him…" A malicious glint flashed in his eyes as he gathered his thoughts while walking up to the centre to fight Jack now.

"I give up." Jack raised his hands in the air with a resigned sigh. "I am already injured from the previous fight with Henry; I can't fight you."

Hearing this, Aur just shrugged and looked at Jonathan.

"Very well, then; I declare that Aur has won this tournament."

"Brother Aur, well done…" Leo praised with a thumbs up.

"Thank you, Brother Leo." Aur's friendly smile brightened everyone's mood as they formed social circles around him.

After all, although he might be barely a middle-grade talent and will probably get surpassed in the future by them, currently making friends with him was undoubtedly beneficial to everyone.
