Void of the Magus

Lennon was once an ordinary university student on Earth, a man with simple ambitions and no knowledge of the arcane. But a freak spatial anomaly tears him from his reality, thrusting him into a world ruled by ancient magic, fearsome monsters, and unyielding strength—a world where only the powerful survive. Lost in a land of Magi, Lennon soon discovers he is utterly powerless in this new plane. But fate is not entirely cruel: by his side is an advanced AI, an inheritance robot left behind by an extinct civilization known as the Auttis. This machine holds knowledge beyond Earth’s wildest dreams, technology capable of reshaping worlds. It is the key to survival, and perhaps, to domination. For over a century, Lennon toils in secrecy, using the robot’s vast knowledge to unlock the mysteries of the Magi and fortify himself against a hostile world. But with his talent limitations, he struggles to break past the barriers of true power—until he finally crafts the ultimate vessel, a new body forged to endure the magical energies of this world and elevate him to a level few could ever reach. Now, with an unyielding resolve and his indomitable will, Lennon is ready to reshape his destiny. Armed with a combination of Auttis technology and newfound arcane power, he sets his sights on ascending to the peak of this world’s hierarchy. But in a land where power is everything, Lennon’s ambition draws enemies from all sides—ancient beings, dark forces, and rival Magi who would stop at nothing to see him fall. Can Lennon rise to the top in this unforgiving world of monsters and magic, or will he be consumed by the very power he seeks?

The inheritance Chamber

With the guardians defeated, Lennon finally stood before the central chamber. The massive doors were adorned with ancient runes, their glow brighter and more intense than any he had seen before.  

**"AI, can I break through?"**  

The AI's response was cautious. **"The barrier protecting the chamber is highly advanced. It requires a specific sequence to unlock. I can assist in deciphering it, but it will take time."**  

Lennon nodded. **"Do it. I'll stand guard."**  

The AI began its analysis, and Lennon prepared for any potential threats. His senses were on high alert, every sound and movement scrutinized. Time seemed to crawl as the AI worked, the tension in the air almost palpable.  

Finally, after what felt like hours, the AI spoke. **"Sequence deciphered. Opening the chamber now."**  

The massive doors slowly creaked open, revealing a vast chamber bathed in an otherworldly light. At the center stood a pedestal, atop which rested a crystalline orb pulsating with immense magical energy. Surrounding the orb were shelves filled with ancient tomes, artifacts, and alchemical components.  

Lennon's eyes widened in awe. **"So this is the inheritance of a Fourth-Circle Magus…"**  

He stepped forward cautiously, his heart pounding. As he approached the pedestal, he felt a surge of power emanating from the orb. His AI chimed in.  

**"Warning: The orb contains a fragment of the Fourth-Circle Magus's soul. Interaction will trigger the final trial."**  

Lennon's expression hardened. **"Figures. Let's finish this."**  

He reached out and touched the orb. The chamber shook violently as a spectral figure materialized—a projection of the Fourth-Circle Magus who had once wielded this power.  

**"To claim my inheritance, you must prove your worth,"** the spectral figure intoned, its voice echoing through the chamber.  

Lennon raised his hands, his spells ready. **"I've come too far to turn back now."**  

The final trial had begun.
