Kubei was just an ordinary pencil and button pusher working a day job, hating his boss and making horrible speeches when one day he fell asleep after pushing an all-nighter. When he woke up, he was bound to a chair, facing three creepy robed women and in a body way too young and way too weak to be his own. As he slowly came to, he realized that he was no longer in the same universe as he was before. He had teleported to the Kingdom of Helius, where an all-powerful church rules its lands and wages war against the elusive group known only as Mages. Armed with an incredibly cocky neural interface that just won’t shut up and his own sheer wit, our MC will find himself not just fighting to survive, but maybe even something bigger than himself.
At that moment, Grant did not make any unnecessary moves, but rather raised that rune character to form a cross, aiming at the crystal ball that was falling from great heights.
A golden glow enveloped over. In a flash, the falling crystal ball halted in the air, as if it was hit with the pause button.
Grant frowned.

And right at this moment, streams of water surged and crashed into the suppressed elemental windstorm. Instantly, the elemental windstorm expanded once again with the boost of water elements. The golden glow couldn’t seem to hold it any further.
"You..." Grant realized something was amiss and stared at Benjamin.
"It looks as though you really want this water crystal ball? It’s quite alright, I’ll give it to you. It’s not as if the academy couldn’t replicate a pile of this." Benjamin smiled, "Apart from this, I still could gift you a huge ball."
