Bab 1068: The Great Sage's Magic

There I stood, amidst the ruins and the fallen, the energy of Nether pulsing and rippling around me like a living entity.

I lifted my hands, fingers splayed wide as I felt the pure, unbridled power coursing through my veins.

I could feel the surge of ecstasy rippling through me as I realized… That I was about to use Magic, for the first time ever.

"HUUUUUUUUUUUU..." The black-marked monster, undeterred by the spectacle, extended a gnarled hand, summoning from the depths of the cave a host of vile creatures, each one more grotesque than the last.

They lumbered towards me, their monstrous forms silhouetted against the foreboding darkness. I should have felt fear or despair.

I should have felt the crushing weight of failure and anxiety.
