nMaximus sat in his study, a sense of satisfaction washing over him as he looked at the information displayed on the system panel.

nAfter successfully advancing to a Tier 3 nascent mage, he felt his newfound strength coursing through his veins.

nYet, amidst his exhilaration, Maximus also felt the presence of the corrosive mana in the air.

nIt reminded him of the book he read, ‘Basic Knowledge of Etherium Realm’, which told the knowledge that Nascent Mage is already at the peak he can achieve on this continent.

nThe book explained that the mana required to advance to a higher realm was simply too vast.

nAlthough, you could still absorb mana after filtering out its corrosive properties.

nHowever, advancing in such a way is not recommended, as the time needed is immeasurable, considering that the lifespan of a Nascent mage is only a thousand years.𝗈𝗏𝐞xt.𝐜𝗈𝑚

nAs he thought about it, he came up with a solution: he could buy a filtering array from the system mall.

nHowever, after a quick glance, he set it aside for now, as it cost a staggering amount for a tier 3 array, requiring hundreds of thousands.

nMaximus couldn’t advance for a while; he knew that he had reached the peak of strength on this cursed continent.

nIf he needed to advance to a higher realm, he would have to go to the central continent.

nHowever, it was too dangerous for his cowardly heart, and he felt that there was no need to hurry his advancement for now.

nHe needed to consolidate his power, so he decided to shop for suitable spells.

nIn the past, he bought a few spells ranging from tier 0 to tier 2.

nHowever, he didn’t use them much, as he had purchased them to familiarize himself with magic.

nThe reason he did so was that magic weapons of the same tier were stronger and affordable, allowing him to be extravagant with his weapon.

nHowever, now that he had ascended to Tier 3.

nThe magic weapons suitable for his current strength were very expensive, ranging from tens of thousands to even hundred of thousand.

nThe cost of magic weapons and spells of the same rank was about ten times the difference in price.

nConsidering his lack of money, he obviously chose magic spells as they were cheaper and more versatile.

nHappy with his decision, he opened the system mall and started browsing for available spells suitable for nascent mages.

nHe carefully read their descriptions, searching for the one that would match his style. After a while, he made a purchase.

nFlame Burst (Tier 3): High fire damage, burning effect. Range of approximately 500-meter radius. Speed of about 200 meters per second. Price – 2,000

nFrost Particle (Tier 3): High ice damage. Slow down or immobilize. Range of about 1,000 meters radius. Speed of around 100 meters per second. Price 2,000

nHe leaned back, deep in contemplation.

nAlthough magic spells were cheaper, they were still more costly than he had anticipated, as he watch his gold points quickly reach zero.

nHe briefly thought about his treasury and considered converting some gold coins into gold points, but he quickly realized that his gold coins were also running low.

nThe Aetheria Market generated huge profits, but it simply wasn’t enough to sustain his extravagant expenses as his strength grew.

nAs he stared at the numbers on the screen, he contemplated a solution.

nHe knew that a Tier 3 mage was a rare entity in this continent, primarily due to its challenging environment.

nPerhaps it was time for him to address and resolve the fragmented situation in this kingdom.

nHe reasoned, making excuses for his motives of accumulating wealth.

n…

nIn his Council Chamber, Maximus’s mind was racing with ideas and plans for the unification of the scattered kingdom.

nRecognizing the significance of the matter, he summoned General Smith and General Johnson to come up with a reliable plan.

n“Gentleman” As the generals entered the room, He greeted them briefly with a serious expression.

n“The time has come to unite our once scattered kingdom. Restoring peace and prosperity of our land.”

nGeneral Smith stepped forward and declared, “My Lord, rest assured that we will swiftly unite and bring an end to the chaos at your order.”

n“During this time, the soldiers underwent rigorous training, their strength has reached that of official knights. With this army, we can overpower everything and bring unity to this kingdom.”

nAfter hearing what he said, he was surprised.

nAlthough an official knight was somewhat weak for an individual, for an army, it was already overwhelming.

nThe resources needed for such an army are astronomical.

nFortunately, he bought the ‘Resonance Harmonizer Array,’ which made up for the resources needed to advance to an official knight.

n“I am pleased to hear of our soldiers’ advancements,” he replied, a hint of satisfaction in his voice.

n“With the strength of the army and an abundant allocation of resources, we can surely succeed,” General Johnson said.

n“My lord, we also need to establish supply chains to ensure a steady provision of food and weapons for the soldiers,” he added.

nThe three further discuss the feasibility of their plan, meticulously analyzing what was needed and what was missing.

n…

nGathering their commanders and advisors, General Smith and General Johnson called for a briefing in their military outpost.

nMaps and strategic reports were spread across a large table as they deliberated on their first targets.

nLooking at the surrounding city around their territory, and taking into account what resources they have.

nAfter a lengthy discussion, a plan was set. ‘Stonebrick City, Pinecrest City, and Willowdale City’ was marked on the map.

nGeneral Smith began with the discussion.

n“These three cities are the nearest to us, which is a suitable training target at the beginning of our campaign”

nGeneral Smith mused, pointing at the locations on the map.

n“Their proximity to our outpost makes them ideal for swift and coordinated strikes. and finally, it was somewhat weak considering the strength of our army.”

nGeneral Johnson nodded in agreement. “Dividing our forces into smaller teams will allow us to attack multiple targets simultaneously. Each team will consist of more than 300 elite soldiers, it should be more than enough to overwhelm the enemy.”

nThey meticulously planned the logistics, assigning officers to lead each team and outlining the routes of attack.

nThey took into account the terrain, potential obstacles, and defensive capabilities of the cities they were about to engage.

n“Our main objective is to seize control of these cities swiftly and efficiently,” General Smith asserted.

n“We need to establish a strong foothold and demonstrate our dominance. This will not only weaken the enemy’s morale but also serve as a clear message to others that we mean business.”

nGeneral Johnson added, “Once these cities are under our control, we can further expand our influence and unite more land. This is the first step towards achieving our ultimate goal.”
