Chapter 83: Chat Room!

"System! I choose Self-Fusion!"

As his words fell, the system panel in front of him seemed to think for a second.

[Beginning Self-Fusion]

[Scanning for current mages]

Bang!

As the words fell, a silent pulse of mana starting with Ethan at the center spread.

In one second it covered the illusory arena.

In two seconds it covered Emerald City.

In three seconds, Dragon County, and in four seconds, the whole Blue Star!

Under this wave of mana, a thin, invisible thread emerged, connecting everyone who had formed a circle under Ethan’s guidance.

Not only that, but with this thread, anyone who formed a circle in the future would automatically join the web.

In an instant, the Awakener System created a magic web of sorts.

[Ding! Self-Fusion complete]

[The second system is created. What would you like to name this system?]

Hearing this question, Ethan thought for a bit.

Just now, he had witnessed the Awakener System’s power in action.

’Amazing, no wonder it was able to seamlessly extract Lucian’s system; they both aren’t even on the same level.’

Thinking of this, he shook his head.

Although he wasn’t sure about the true origins of the Awakener System, one thing that was sure to him was that the system itself meant no harm to humanity.

In fact, without it, humanity would have been destroyed long ago in his past life.

And even though they had only struggled for ten years before nearing their end, the effect of the Awakener System on all was evident.

’However, a name...’

’Since, judging from what happened today, I’m probably going to be dealing with a lot of systems from now on.’

’In that case, I can’t just call it "system".’

Placing his hand on his chin, all kinds of names ran through his mind.

’Mage network? Nah, too technological.’

’Magic system? No, too generic.’

Running through names one by one, the scene where all mages linked to him like a thread merged in his mind.

It was as if the mages were the spiders and mana was the thread, weaving together to form a glorious power system.

’In that case, why don’t I just go with Magic Web?’

’Yes, that sounds about right. Although it doesn’t have as many functions as the magic webs in novels, as a name, it should help convey my ambitions and goals!’

Making up his mind, Ethan didn’t hesitate.

"System, name it Magic Web!"

He said, his eyes flashing with excitement.

[Magic Web complete!]

[Storing information in Akashic records!]

[Magic Web (Rank 1, upgradable): Transformed from a dead system, it connects all mages.

Creator: Ethan Smith (2nd-Circle Mage, The First Mage)

Functions:

Communication hub: Mages can communicate with each other no matter how far they are. Separate group channels can also be created, and one-on-one chats can be done.

Attribute check: Using the Magic Web, mages can check and monitor their attributes and spells.]

Reading this, Ethan learned a lot of information.

Firstly, systems had ranks, and Lucian’s system was also the lowest-rank type of system.

Although given enough time it could potentially grow into Rank 12; however, that was much too far off.

The second thing Ethan learned was that after extraction, the system’s level had dropped.

Only after consuming its own energy did the Awakener System raise it back to Rank 1, as well as add the two functions: attribute check and communication.

Otherwise, from what it described before, the system was meant to be in a blank state and unusable till he added other features himself.

"Interesting, Awakener System, just what are you, and how can you even do such a thing?"

"Don’t tell me you’re the legendary Rank 12 system? Haha."

He laughed, secretly looking at his system panel hoping to see a change.

Unfortunately, the system remained silent, completely determined to ignore him.

"Tch~ It’s not like I expected anything. Well then, let me check the communication hub."

Clicking his tongue, he clicked the communication tab on his system.

[Global Mage Chat Room]

<The First Mage has entered the chat room >

<Addicted to Fighting has entered the chat room>

<An old man who almost had it all has entered the chat room>

<The world’s greatest sniper has entered the chat room>

<Xxxx has entered the chat room...>

<Xxxx has entered the chatroom...>

<Xxxx has entered the chat room...>

As soon as Ethan entered the room, notifications soon began flooding the screen as all the other mages joined the chat room.

[The First Mage]: Um, hello everyone! It’s Ethan by the way!

[Addicted to Fighting]: Brother? What is going on? I was just trying to break through the second circle! What is this? Also, what is this nickname?

[An old man who almost had it all]: Oh? Even the kids are here. Grandson, tell me what you’ve done this time.

[The World’s Greatest Sniper]: Haha, this nickname! It seems even this strange thing recognizes my skill.

[The Aging Sword Saint]: Indeed, this old man wonders if his sword can also cut through this.

Looking at the noisy chat room in front of him, Ethan couldn’t help but get a headache.

Who knew old people could talk so much? Looking around for a bit, he finally found something that could help quiet things down.

<The First Mage has locked the chat room>

[The First Mage]: Ahem! Everyone, first I’ll need you all to calm down for a bit.

[The First Mage]: This is something I created a while ago, after defeating the Monster King.

[The First Mage]: Although I’m not too sure about all its functions, with this we should be able to communicate even over long distances.

[The First Mage]: So be sure not to spend all day talking about useless things and bring up important matters.

[The First Mage]: Also, Elena, remember to watch the base and make sure no intruders or monsters attack while we are were away. We’ll all soon be back.

<The First Mage has unlocked the chat room>

Lifting the ban, Ethan looked at the chat room, waiting to see everyone’s reply.

However, after a minute or so of no one speaking, what he saw next made his lips twitch slightly.

[Addicted to Fighting]: Brother, did you just lock the chat room?

[Addicted to Fighting]: The Patriarch is mighty!

[An old man who almost had it all]: The Patriarch is mighty!

[The World’s Greatest Sniper]: The Patriarch is mighty!

[The Aging Sword Saint]: The Patriarch is mighty!

Looking at his grandfather even joining them in the fun, he suddenly wondered if Self-Fusion was perhaps not such a good idea after all.
