บท 259: Chapter 259: The Dark Forest

After returning to the mage tower, Melvin's previously amiable and kind professor image disappeared, replaced by deep fatigue and worry on his face.

He quickly walked to a place similar to an observatory at the top of the mage tower.

This was the most epoch-making magic he had researched and was most proud of back then.

It could break through the barrier of the 'native world'.

It allowed him to glimpse the other worlds that belonged to the "outside."

Melvin vaguely remembered that when he first released this magic, he was extremely excited, gazing at the cosmic planes with anticipation and eagerness.

However, the dazzling and colorful universe he had imagined did not exist.

What he saw was a desolate scene.

It was...

A dark forest.

If it were just that, it would have been fine.

But in his arrogance and ignorance, he made a fatal mistake, a mistake that could bring destruction and calamity to their world.
