Within the Mage Stadium of the First Magic Tower
Year 2851 | Month 5 | Day 7
“The very first livestreamed second trial for the position of Tower Master has beguuun!!!” Artair Vellus shouts, his voice echoing throughout the indoor stadium as over a million people watch from behind the glass in the various spectating rooms. And billions more all across the world watch online through the livestream. “And all of the trial takers are rushing off to find the greatest prey they can while beginning to study the toxic snow!”
Artair grins as he flies through the air amidst dozens of different floating screens. Each showing a different viewpoint from different cameras secretly following the trial takers.
The man himself is well known across the world as the greatest MC of all, and a Class S mage himself. Giving him the experience needed to commentate on all things magic.
“Of course, some of you might not be aware of the Toxic Frosts in particular as it’s just one of many mana infested regions in the world, so you can find details about the region here,” Artair says while motioning to a large screen that appears at the center of the stadium with a description of the Toxic Frosts on it. “So let’s get started with commentating on the trial taker everyone is most interested in seeing right now! That’s right! The Undyyyiiiiing Magiciaaaaan!!!”
With that, he moves over to the largest screen of all. Only to find the Undying Magician experimenting on a beast in the Toxic Frosts without so much as a care for his safety.
Artair finds himself blankly staring at the screen as the man tests various different things on the beast.
He bites the thing and tastes the bear before spitting out the bear’s flesh, tests the poison spreading across the bear’s claws and fangs personally, and even tests various different methods to kill the bear. Moving onto other bears and other beasts whenever his current experimental subject dies.
Overall, it’s a vastly different scene than the ones shown on the other screens. Where the magicians are all rushing through the Toxic Frosts so as to spare their mana as much as possible while searching for larger and more powerful beasts.
“The immortal magician really is proving just how different he is from the rest of us as he experiments on the beasts without a care for his own safety!” Artair exclaims after finally getting over his initial shock. “And you can see all the corruption caused by the snow and the beast reverting instantly after corruption! It’s incredible to witness!”
Slightly muffled applause echoes through the stadium from the other side of the glass. Where the audience is located.
Artair continues commentating on various details about the Undying Magician. The ones known to the public. All the way until the Undying Magician himself finally moves on, heading deeper into the Toxic Frosts.
In the direction of the center of the Toxic Frosts.
The same direction that the other magicians all headed in.
But unlike them, he moves at a relatively carefree pace. Albeit one far faster than any normal human would be able to go thanks to his vampiric strength.
I really wouldn’t want to get on his bad side… ever…
Artair shivers slightly at the thought of having an entity like the Undying Magician as an enemy. Since the Undying Magician is so much stronger than a human physically, and he cannot die.
He really finds it bizarre how so many people in the abandoned continents thought they could fight him. But that’s just how the abandoned continents are.
They’re full of criminals, and nations originally created by criminals.
The place itself is disgusting, and part of him wonders if it’s really such a good idea to let them return to society. But since they are being reorganized with their original nations and rulers being completely replaced, and their new leader is the Undying Magician, Artair believes things should be fine.
Based on everything he’s seen of the Undying Magician so far, the man is not like the other people there.
In fact, Artair gets a bit of an apathetic and detached impression from him. Like that of someone who wishes to be left alone by the world.
“Here we go! The first higher class beast of the Toxic Frosts!” Artair exclaims as his attention turns towards a different screen. Where a beast can be seen roar-groaning at a Class S lightning specialized magician. “And its target is the Class S magician of the Rubian Council, from the Continent of Trelah!”
The beast itself is in the form of a large tiger spanning two meters in length with the same purple corruption spread through its body and hardened purple eyes. And its making lumbered leaps as it rushes at the Class S magician.
But the magician himself simply creates a large field of lightning around himself. One that quickly begins to electrify the beast once it enters the field.
“The beast is already becoming paralyzed by the lightning field spell! Just as we’d expect from Revault!” Artair says while slowly flying around the screen. “Even with this increase in the beast’s power, it looks like it’ll still take a while before these Class S magicians face anything that can be a threat to them!”
Not long after Revault’s encounter, the other screens begin to show more Class S magicians finding and killing higher class beasts. And each one of them quickly kills the beasts without any struggle.
But one of them catches Artair’s attention more than the others as The Undying Magician simply grabs a large tiger beast and tears it apart with his bare hands. Without even using magic to do so.
Artair feels his grin growing wider and wider the longer he watches.
Because the more entertainment this gives the audience, the more viewers there will be, and the more money he’ll make from it.
Just keep it up and fill my coffers.
