My Muscle System in the Mage World

Such individuals were already in the line of big-shots, just under the Elders in terms of power and influence.

"Muscle system."

Summoning his familiar blue panel once more, he focused on the skill section, which had now grown to 11.

—----

[Spells:

-Elemental Mastery.

He looked at the first with a slightly happy expression. After all, the more spells he had, the better equipped he would be to protect himself. Although he had advanced much quicker in the physical path, it didn\'t mean he would neglect the wizard path.

This path was much more developed in this world and had the potential to go far, increasing his means.

Thinking of these, Aur focused on the snake transformation.

Another panel appeared in front of his vision.

[Snake Transformation - A Tier One spell that allows the wizard to transform into a giant snake. The power of the snake depends on the mana used to activate it.]

Seeing the system\'s evaluation, it wasn\'t much different from what he had already thought about.

It was just an ordinary transformation spell, and its power was also average. However, it had its advantages and disadvantages. For Aur, who already had a strong body, it didn\'t matter much at all, only a waste of mana.

Thinking of this, Aur shook his head and returned to his grand residence.

He promptly summoned his system and looked at it again, focusing on the attributes.

[Muscle Mass attribute needs to reach ten points before reaching tier two.]

[Life Level attribute needs three more points before reaching the next tier.]

Looking at the task, Aur\'s eyes narrowed again.

"I must reach tier two wizard status before taking action against Aiden; otherwise, I would be helpless. Let\'s go into another bout of seclusion."

Just like that, a month passed, and devastating news spread, shocking all the Elders of the North Village.

The Beast Tide has grown stronger by combining all the beasts of the wilderness together. Not just wolves, but imps, ogres, remnants of the shadow bear, and every single beast has united under the leadership of Fenrir.

They are charging forward with unstoppable momentum, destroying all the villages one by one. Even the Landlord family, who have lived in the area for countless centuries, has been eradicated under the power of the Beast Tide.

This news has instilled a deep fear in the Elders, who have already prepared numerous escape routes for themselves since they are on the opposite side of the Beast Tide.

Once the Beast Tide reaches their village, it will mean that they have conquered the entire wilderness.

The Elders have gathered in the office of the Village Leader, and the atmosphere is heavy and depressing.

The second elder looked at Noah with worry and asked, "What should we do now, Leader?" Noah had a calm expression on his face as he replied with a chuckle, "We wait until they reach here."

The Elders frowned when they heard this. Even the first elder had a strange expression on his face. "But-" the second elder began to say, but Noah interrupted him by shaking his hand. With a sigh, the second elder sat back down.

Noah looked at all the Elders and smiled, "Alright, I called you all here to share some good news with you. Today, our North Village has given birth to another Alchemist." His tone was filled with pride.

The Elders were momentarily distracted from the looming threat of the Beast Tide and asked in surprise, "Who is it, Village Leader?"

Noah pointed to the burly youth with white hair sitting in one of the seats. The Elders followed his gaze and looked at the youth with an expressionless face. "It\'s Elder Aur," Noah announced.

The second elder yelped in surprise and exclaimed, "An Alchemist!?" while looking at Aur with an astonished gaze.

Noah replied, "Yes, he had the talent to be an Alchemist, so I helped him a bit, and now he has become an Alchemist who can create potions right off the bat."

"One of our village\'s great blessings," one of the elders remarked happily.

However, the first elder interrupted and signalled to one of the elders, "Leader, you still haven\'t told us how we are going to solve the beast tide. Although it\'s a great blessing for our village, an alchemist cannot stop the beast tide, can they?"

Noah smiled and replied, "You are correct." He then turned to Aur and said, "Elder Aur, since you have become an Alchemist, ask whatever you want. I will do whatever I can to satisfy your demands."

"Thank you, Village Leader," Aur replied, standing up and bowing.

Noah then paused momentarily in thought before he spoke, "By the way, the crime rate in the village has gone up significantly, and even one of the instructors has been slain. We should take action against such things. How dare they bring disharmony to the village? So, I have ordered a thorough investigation into the details of this matter."

The Elders fell silent for a moment, contemplating the looming threat of the Beast Tide.

"Has the leader gone crazy? Why is this bastard thinking about trivial things when we are all going to die?" These thoughts resonated in unison, though nobody dared to speak them aloud.

However, Noah broke the silence by clapping his hands and smiling. "I have gathered some allies as well," he said.

The sound of footsteps approached the door, and people entered one by one.

Noah greeted them warmly, "Welcome, Aiken and the Landlord family head, who have come from far and wide to our humble village." He spoke in a tone that sounded as if he was meeting a long lost brother.

The people he addressed had varying expressions on their faces as they looked at all the Elders and Noah present.
