《This world is strange》Chapter 68. Return
Advertisement
After a few minutes Maria returned with Leonard and they started to examine the pictures again.
After they have rested they joined her. They have found nothing interesting, but took the water out of the chalice and brought both up. The guards were still waiting for them outside.
They packed up on the carriage and started to go back to the Phoenix family. On the way back Maria and Joseph continued to read the history book. Leo was listening to them and was amazed at the fact that Joseph could read it.
The next parts were the more about the happenings in the wars between the five mages. The wars kept on until the five were overwhelmed by the newly found Herian empire. Even though the empire was weaker then them, it turned them against eachother and used the opportunity to cease the five countries. With few magicians and a lot of people not capable of casting spells they were victorious. Then the golden age of the Herian empire began.
The book ended at the beginning of the golden age. It looked like it was the first part of a serie. Joseph looked at Maria.
"Do you have the other parts?"
"No. This was hard to find and I did not even know about that it was a series of these books."
"I see."
They spoke about the content of the book for a while, when a window appeared for Joseph.
Alert
You are being watched by someone who wants to hurt you.
He was supprised and looked around. Noone else noticed anything. Catherine was talking with Leo about some magical items, while Maria was rereading her notes.
Joseph looked out of the window and used his sensing spell, but found nothing except for some small animals. Catherine looked at him questioningly.

"What are you doing Joseph?"
He cleared his throat.
"I felt like someone was watching us and I just looked around if there is anything suspicous around here. But found nothing."
"Let me look."
She looked out as well and after a minute she shrugged.
"Either it was nothing, or it already ran away."
"I guess that could've happened."
He was still looking out for the rest of the way.
It was night already when they returned. George welcomed them and secured the artifacts they collected. They agreed to return in the morning to discuss everything.
In the night Catherine and Joseph secured their rooms from intruders and they slept until morning.

The Depths of Magic
Synopsis It's the year 2052 and the release of the new next-generation full-dive VRMMO game called The Depths of Magic is hitting the world by storm. The game's technology will surpass all other games before it and shock the masses. Hector who goes by the name Locke inside the game is an experienced player of the genre. He is looking to continue his goal of enjoying gaming as well as the competition that goes along with competing for the top ranking spots. Novel Summary The Depths of Magic is a LitRPG novel focused on a Fantasy VRMMO setting. This is not a harem novel. In-Game systems The Depths of Magic features state-of-the-art technology never before seen in Hector's world. The key system the novel will bring up often is the Second Brain. The Second Brain system is more like a guidance AI for the players in the game that acts as if you had a second brain assisting your every action. How much guidance this AI will give is based on its experience or mastery skills a player will receive in the game. The guidance is seamless to a point where a player won't even realize they are being assisted, it's will feel like what they are doing is something they could always do. However, once they leave the game it will become quite apparent that they were receiving heavy guidance. The purpose of this system in a writing sense is to explain why a player can realistically become more powerful, more agile, or more skilled than they would otherwise be able to as a human. To give an example if someone could move faster than a bullet, how would a normal human brain be able to perceive and control this movement properly. Or how could a player who has never held a sword before become as experienced as someone who has trained with the sword all their lives? The magic system will be another focus of this novel. I don't want to spoil anything here but it should be an interesting one. The hope is that the system I have made will spark discussion between the readers on what combinations will do what. I already have most of it, but it will be fun to read as the author. Side notes My general focus for this novel is to attempt to make the in-game systems make sense. To give a vague example I have read a lot of novels of this genre and some have the habit of just creating such powerful items that it just breaks the system, and somehow the MC keeps finding challenging situations even with those items. What tends to happen when I read a novel like this I just ignore the stats of the items he is getting because the numbers don't even matter anymore. Release schedule: The chapter release schedule due to real-life complications is to release as I write them. Patreon setup: 1 chapter early release/discord access. Free content up to the current chapter includes an excel sheet that contains Locke's current stats at the end of the chapter. This is extra information for those that are interested.

... And My Skillet
A long time ago, a child was born under the great blue sky. Many a Dwarf grumbled at the auspicious event, tugging furtively at their beards at this ill omen. A year later as the expedition had begun digging into the virgin hills of their new home, the grumbling of the doughty mountain people rose to a disbelieving furor when the yearling passed over the ritual offerings that would determine his lot in life. Instead, the as of yet unnamed child crawled over to a skillet fresh out of the fire and begun picking at the rock bread, unconcerned with the heat. Shouts turned into laughter, frowns lifted into craggy smiles. Upon placing a handful of the bread into his mouth, the infant’s face grew so grim and stony not even the eldest of the present Dwarves could match him. There was a durable ore within this babe, of that the Lore Keeper was sure. Yumly Ironhand was thus named, the beginning of his great tale immortalized on the rune walls of his clan’s history. “It’s pronounced Yoom Lee and no, rock bread isn’t a misnomer.”
