The Magus world

Merline wanted nothing more than to break free from his monotonous job and controlling family. But when the System arrived, it brought a seismic shift to the world: magic, Rifts, and a chance for ordinary individuals to achieve greatness. Unfortunately for Merline, his initial stats were as underwhelming as his previous life. However, everything took a turn when he unlocked the rare trait {Primordial Will}, which forced all his free points into a single stat—a restriction that came with both challenges and unexpected potential.

Forced into a perilous Rift far beyond his capabilities, Merline quickly realized that survival required more than just brute strength or flashy abilities. It demanded unyielding determination and ingenuity. If he wanted to escape alive and seize the rewards that could tip the scales in his favor, he would need to push himself beyond his limits.

This story chronicles Merline’s journey as he learns to master Mana Threads and pioneers an entirely new magical framework through Spell Circles. He begins to understand that magic is more than a tool—it's a gateway to a power few can truly comprehend. But with global governments scrambling to manage the surge of superhuman threats, Merline finds himself facing not just monsters and Rifts, but a world in turmoil. In a society where strength dictates authority, who truly holds control?
