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.
Finally, Benjamin brought out the information of those ‘brave’ mages that sacrificed themselves and left.
Actually, pleading for mercy was not really a bad thing, but, he needed enough people and he had to do in public. In the open, the Church would not dare to do anything to these mages, but in private, they would definitely.
But, they had already left, Benjamin could not let them just die for nothing.
He had to create a strong backlash, and he needed more support. The ‘The Declaration of the Freedom of Magic’ was only the beginning, when the unsuitability of the mages and the Church started showing up, he planned to create a weekly newspaper. These few mages that went to die would become the front cover of the newspaper, being one of the first innocent mages that were harmed.
Of course, he had to do all this step-by-step.
He could not rush this.
