My Muscle System in the Mage World

Very soon, a massacre occurred, and a river of blood flowed in the ground, filling the entire place with a deathly aura.

The stench of blood permeated the surrounding area, with a mountain of corpses stacked upon themselves.

Brunos also lay in the mountain of corpses, his eyes still looking at the sky with horror.

"The demonic wizards are truly ruthless to kill me, and you dared to even slaughter the innocent?" Hazel said with unconcealed anger.

"They were initially test subjects anyway, so what does it matter to you?" Rowena's lips curled upwards. "They could have lived longer and even survived if you were not there. So you are the cause of their death."

Hazel coldly looked at Rowena. "I have already rung the sect signal. The elders will be coming soon, so I advise you not to play tricks, or else you will face the consequences."

Rowena chuckled while shaking her head. "Even if I believe your bluff that you have signaled your sect, do you really think you will be able to survive?"

Her presence as a peak tier two wizard leaked outward, radiating with a strong force.

"Hmph." Hazel coldly snorted, extending her sword and revealing her own presence as an equally powerful peak tier two wizard.

"I see your peak tier two wizard realm has given you confidence?" Rowena looked at her amusingly as she lightly waved her hand.

Two old people, one male and one female, appeared in front of her, their auras unmistakably those of tier three wizards.

"What about now?"

Hazel's expression immediately changed as their presence completely suppressed her like towering giants. Although this presence couldn't physically harm her, her mentality was already weakened, making her mind unstable.

"Sigh." She sighed in resignation. "I admit that I have underestimated you."

"So, are you giving up?" Rowena's eyes lit up with anticipation.

"No."

Bang!

Two powerful tier three beasts soared into the air—a massive white tiger and a blue eagle, both emerging from Hazel's beast bag.

"Did you think I would risk my life without any preparation to retreat?" A smug smile appeared on her face, making Rowena's expression darken.

"Fight."

There was no delay. Immediately, both sides engaged in combat without mercy. Every move aimed to kill, and spells flew through the air.

In the initial collision, the two tier three beasts gained the upper hand. However, after a few exchanges, the dynamics shifted. The two old wizards eventually adapted to the beasts' fixed attack patterns and slowly started to gain the upper hand.

Even though the beasts and the human wizards were of the same tier, the beasts only had a single type of spell from their bloodline.

In contrast, the wizards might not have had stronger power, but their battle awareness was astonishing and powerful.

The same was true on the weaker battlefield. Rowena used the knights as human meat shields, completely blocking Hazel's attacks. She herself materialised a deep, dark sceptre and fired spells all aimed at Hazel.

Hazel grew more anxious as the battle continued and shouted with righteous indignation, "Even as a mighty peak tier two wizard, you use shields? How cowardly and weak you are. I thought demonic wizards had the highest combat power, but it's nothing but a joke."

"When I play with your head separated from your neck, I will show you how weak the demonic wizard is," Rowena said with an amused tone.

Hazel could only grit her teeth.

The battle raged on, fierce and unrelenting, as the moon began its slow descent, casting a haunting glow over the carnage. Spells and counterspells clashed in mid-air, lighting up the battlefield with flashes.

With a final piercing from a wooden pillar, both beasts lost their vitality and died instantly.

The two old wizards breathed heavily, completely exhausted and drained of their reserves.

Hazel was also captured, bound mercilessly by countless blood-red tentacles.

These tentacles were actually formed from the blood of the knights she had thrown at her. All the knights she had were actually used to perform a demonic spell that could even capture a tier three wizard alive, let alone her.

"It's not over yet," Rowena muttered while looking to her right.

In the darkness of the trees, there was a faint crimson-red pupil that was monitoring them.

"What are you doing here, Aur?" she asked with a scowl on her face.

"Well, I came because I was bored," Aur casually replied. "Aren't you going to lift the barrier now?"

Aur lay lazily under the shadow of the tree, his eyes drooping.

Rowena smiled when she heard his words. "You can't break the circle?" she asked again, a glint flashing in her eyes.

"Yes, I can't break it. Initially, I wanted to leave, but I couldn't." Aur shrugged.

"I see." Rowena nodded and glanced at the two old wizards who were slowly moving towards her. Her eyes glowed with a pattern as she muttered some unknown words.

Aur observed with his eyes flashing. He had some mastery in sound magic, though not deep, he could at least tell when someone was using it.

"As expected, that circle was a test, huh?" Aur thought. When he tried to silently leave the place, he found an invisible dome obstructing him.

This dome was very strong; even with his full strength, he couldn't destroy it. According to Lily, who was in the golden text, the power to break through this circle was only possible for a tier four wizard.

He was no longer an ignorant person. Circles were essentially a schema used by multiple people casting the same spell, making the normal spell several times more powerful than it is.

This circle used to trap him was actually like his killer move, Nature Harmony, which needed a mana supply for a while and then wouldn't be needed any longer, lasting for a long time.

The two old wizards had already surrounded him, completely covering their escape routes.

"Don't think about running away, Aur. Since you know I am a demonic wizard, I can't let you leave," Rowena smugly stated as if everything was at the back of her hand controlled by her easily.

"Sigh, I thought we had a business deal?" Aur looked at the two old wizards with drooping eyes as if he could fall asleep quite easily.

"Attack."

Without any nonsense, the two old wizards instantly made their moves, and a wooden cage made of countless spikes appeared where Aur was resting.

"Oh no! Protect the young miss," the old male wizard hurriedly said, his eyes widened.

Unfortunately, it was too late. At some point, Aur appeared near Rowena, his big arms tightly holding her neck.

Rowena gasped as she felt out of breath, her consciousness sinking away. As she was about to close her eyes, she saw only the faint outline of a burly youth and felt a warm hand grabbing her neck, not even allowing a single sound to pass through. There was no resistance!

The two wizards looked warily at the sight of their passing miss, their expressions filled with apprehension.

"Let's call those people and Lord Forest."

The female old wizard decisively dropped her blood, her eyes glowing with a pattern.

Aur looked amusedly at the two wizards.

"You can call anyone you like, I am waiting."

"I hope you will be that confident after this," the old woman shouted, and a small figure descended from the sky at lightning speed.

"What happened to the young miss?" the man landed on the ground and asked, frowning.

The man wore a green coat and white pants, with a top hat and his chin had peculiar goatee that contrasted starkly, sticking out like a sore thumb.

"Master, please punish us. We couldn't protect the miss," the two old wizards immediately bowed down and started to cry.

"What happened? Tell me everything," the man, addressed as Lord Forest, commanded.

"Yes, Lord Forest," the two old wizards immediately recounted all the details of what had happened.

"Oh?"

After listening to all these details, Lord Forest's gaze finally turned to Aur, who was sitting casually with amused eyes.

"Boy, how do you want to die? You decide; I will grant it," Lord Forest said confidently, as if stating a matter of fact.

"If you could survive, then you can grant me death," Aur humbly bowed, his grip tightening on the neck of the girl.

"I have been expecting a tier four wizard to come, but you are alone? Who built the circle then?" Lord Forest asked, looking around him.

Lord Forest narrowed his eyes. "Why is this brat so confident? Is there a trump card of his?"

But he soon shook his head. He was quite confident that Aur was only a tier three existence at most, and with his means, no matter what he did, tier four was an absolute chasm that no one could cross.

There was a chasm no one in history could cross, because a tier four wizard existed in a different dimension compared to all other living beings.
