My Favorite Game Followed Me!
Chapter 375

The week before they arrived on the islands of Norbuna, Anton focused on leveling up his newly created Diablo II Assassin character. He didn’t know much about the Assassin, so he followed the build suggested by gamers on the Red streaming site and the guide written on the most famous Diablo II websites.

The only thing that he could say was that Anton wasn’t built to play melee characters. Even with the Paladin, for leveling-up purposes, he built it as some sort of caster while his Necromancer and his Druid were both summoners. Now he would be forced to truly become a melee character and he would take it as a chance to learn and get used to coming face-to-face with the monsters from the world of Sanctuary.

On the first day of the last week before arriving in Norbuna, Anton went back to becoming an otaku, not leaving his room. The only difference was he kept the door open so anyone could see what he was doing, which was him looking like he was meditating. At the very least, during lunchtime, he joined his family in eating lunch for a few minutes then he immediately returned inside his room to continue the leveling-up process.

Perhaps because everyone could see his focus, the mages in the family including Walter were the same. Anna and Frederick, who were still elated about reaching the next wizardly rank were also focused on memorizing their spells so they could fill all their spell slots and then casting the memorized spells on the coffee table mana power bank to empty their spell slots. Frederick also made sure to release the mana from the huge mana power bank whenever it was almost full so they could repeatedly cast their spells again whenever they were done memorizing them.

This effectively allowed everyone to memorize their spells, exercising their mind so they would grow and because they kept doing it, the growth of their mind when it came to holding spells was extremely fast. The fact that Anton’s auras allowed them to memorize the spells extremely fast and together with the rich mana environment because Frederick kept releasing the mana stored in the mana power banks, everyone felt the extreme speed that they were experiencing when memorizing spells.

Walter, Lunelle, Ramona, and Belinda were also highly motivated. The fact that Anna and Frederick ranked up gave them great motivation to reach their next rank as soon as possible. The four of them knew that their wizardly talent was abominably poor, and the only reason they were able to be on par with talented mages was because of Anton’s aura and the recent mana-rich environment. All of them knew that this situation wherein Anton was available all day so they could mooch off from him through the spell that he was emitting was not permanent so they were making sure to take advantage of it.

The fact that the family allowed Lunelle, Ramon, and Belinda to concentrate on their magic was a boon to the three of them since Lunelle was supposed to help her mother, and Ramona and Belinda were supposed to be Anna’s attendants. That meant they should have been busy assisting Anders and Nemina with the family business, but Anton’s father and Lunelle’s mother told them in a straightforward manner that since they were blessed with the opportunity to become mages, they should take advantage of it.

This made the loyalty of the three women to the family rock solid. They were very thankful that Anton, even though he was a very powerful archmage, still behaved like an ordinary teenager around them, and not only that, he kept making sure that the whole family was safe and comfortable.

Lunelle, Ramona, and Belinda knew how a normal, young, powerful mage usually behaved, and they kept thanking the divines that Anton wasn’t like them. During the times they mingled with other wizards in the ship together with Anna and Frederick, they heard stories of the atrocities that young powerful mages usually get away with, and most of the time, it was centered around them committing those atrocities to young women like them.

A lot of the wizards were actually envious of Lunelle, Ramona, and Belinda because instead of the family treating them as servants, which technically, they were, they were being treated as family no less than how Anna was being treated.

Lunelle knew, since she had been part of the family for a long time, the main reason why that was so. Anton’s family were normal farmers who recently came into power, and they still treated everyone around them as if they were still a normal farmer family. She did find the behavior of Anton highly peculiar because even though Anna’s brother treated them with kindness and respect, it wasn’t the behavior of a normal farmer boy. Lunelle then thought of how Anton had a window to another, more futuristic world and she attributed the weirdness of the young archmage’s behavior to that.

Anton's focus was tremendous because even after around four in the afternoon, he only briefly stopped to eat some snacks and then went back to his “meditations”.

He did stop at around seven in the evening when everyone was there in the suite, but Anton was very happy because this allowed his assassin to level up from level one to level twenty-five. The next day, he planned to spend a couple of hours practicing the skills of the assassins since the main purpose of choosing the assassin to level up next was for Anton to familiarize himself with the assassin’s skills. He mostly planned to focus on the Assassin’s Shadow Discipline skill tree since Anton thought that that was what the Assassins were supposed to be experts in.

“How’s the results of your meditation?” Anders asked his son.

“Good. I learned the skills of the Assassins!” Anton boasted then he went to the center of the suite and demonstrated all the skills for the Assassin that he learned.

Anton’s family members clapped their hands but Antonia, Lucia, Walter, Phillip, and the three women, Selena, Norma, and Belue, which Anton secretly calls Anders’s Harem looked astounded.

“I thought you’re a wizard?!” Philip exclaimed.

Anton was about to tell them candidly how his Diablo II system worked when Frederick beat him to it.

“It’s how Anton’s bloodline magic worked!” Frederick said.

He realized then that the mage was protecting his secret. Anton still had a naïve idea that since the people in the suite were his friends, it was alright for him to disclose his secrets but then with Frederick, his father, and Lucas eyeing him, he knew that it would be a mistake for him to overshare.

Anton knew that his secrets were profound and the family was even warned not to tell outside the family what they knew like the effect of Anton’s aura in mages and the effect of the comb from the dolphins in turning a regular person into a mage.

Not because they were going to betray the family or something but because it could endanger their lives since people were interested in secrets, and sooner or later, their family would be targeted because of the secrets Anton had.

Anton’s family was still safe while they were inside the Amelia, but once they were in New Drennor, they could be entangled in the machinations of the powerful families there, but then again, there was a chance that the powerful families would be very busy in the future because everyone knew that the Undead Coalition’s ambition would not stop in Rendindura.
