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 Labyrinth of Death

The battle against the guardian raged on, each exchange of spells and attacks pushing Lennon to his limits. Unlike the mindless beasts he had fought before, this construct was precise and relentless. Its attacks were calculated, exploiting every opening in Lennon's defenses.

Lennon gritted his teeth, his body screaming in protest as he dodged another barrage of energy blasts. He retaliated with Graviton Collapse, aiming to crush the construct under its own weight. The spell

momentarily slowed the guardian, giving Lennon a brief respite.

But it wasn't enough. The construct adapted, switching its attack patterns. In a desperate move, Lennon summoned a series of defensive glyphs, layering them over his barrier.

The battle dragged on, and Lennon could feel his mana reserves dwindling. His movements slowed, and his spells lost their potency. "I can't keep this up," he realized.

In a final, desperate gambit, Lennon unleashed the remainder of his mana in a concentrated strike, aiming for the construct's core. The attack connected, and the construct collapsed, its runes flickering out.

Lennon staggered, barely able to stand. His vision blurred, and he felt the weight of exhaustion pressing down on him. "This was just the beginning," he muttered, sinking to his knees.

The labyrinth was a nightmare. Every step brought new challenges-traps that unleashed torrents of flame, pits filled with corrosive acid, and walls that threatened to crush him. Even with his enhanced reflexes and defensive spells, Lennon barely avoided death multiple times.

"Third-circle spell: Void Barrier

Fortress," he muttered, shielding himself from a volley of magical arrows. The barrier held, but the strain was immense.

The deeper he ventured, the more dangerous the guardians became.

Constructs imbued with Fourth - Circle magic roamed the corridors, their attacks precise and unrelenting. Unlike the mindless beasts Lennon had fought before, these guardians fought with strategy and coordination.

"Eclipse Barrage!" Lennon shouted, releasing a torrent of void energy.

The spell tore through one of the constructs, but the victory was short-lived. Another construct emerged from the shadows, striking him with a beam of concentrated mana.

Lennon screamed as the beam seared his side, narrowly avoiding a fatal blow. He stumbled back, his vision blurred from the pain. "I can't rely on brute force," he realized. "I need to outthink them."
