I Am The Sorcerer King chapter 4
Chapter 4
– Kh ?!
Song Hoon suddenly regained consciousness. My head was splitting with pain, my mouth was
nasty bitter taste.
The pain in the whole body was also severe, but this did not prevent the head from working. The brain was continuously processing some new information. Thoughts that had come from nowhere appeared.
Do you know how the program is installed on a computer? Or
application on your phone? So, some of this kind of information came into the guy’s head.
And as soon as the headache subsided a little, he looked around.

Ruined gas station.
Burning asphalt road.
Some debris.
But even after seeing all this, Song Hoon, who had just got to his feet, kept a cool expression on his face and then simply sighed.
– Ha … I seem to be really useless. I was reborn, but I lived a rather stupid life, ” Song Hoon muttered displeasedly and stared at his palm.
[Lee Sung Hoon, 28 years old.
He dreamed of becoming a singer, but because of his sick mother, he moonlights in dangerous jobs.
Physical condition is good, but due to chronic illness, the future is shrouded in darkness.
An ordinary citizen.]
But this is no longer the case.
[Archimag Kraturas.
Died at the age of 158 after fighting the black dragon Akalluman.]
Now these two people have become one. Fortunately, Lee Sung Hoon’s personality has not disappeared and the two coexist in the same body.
The reason for this is not so difficult.
Because Archmage Kraturas and Lee Sung Min have similar personalities and act in the same direction. This is probably the reason for the merging of their souls.
One way or another, but now he is both Lee Sung Hoon and Kraturas.
It is difficult to say which of them has more control over the mind, because they are both in his mind. That is why, coming to his senses, he simply sighed. After all, he lived his past life not to say that he was calm.
No, not even that. In a past life, he fought several times. And in the mountains, and in the water, and in the air and even in space. As an archmage, he even visited the moon several times.
– Mmm. If he was going to end it like that, then there was no need to use magic. Only mu … no. No time for self-flagellation. It is necessary …
Song Hoon pulled himself together. The first thing he did was concentrate and apply a special breathing technique. The flow of blood changed the pace, and he felt a powerful rush of blood to his head. It also had a slight effect on the functioning of the brain.
He sensed the change and began checking his mana.
This was Sung Hoon’s first time. He felt as if something exploded inside him and lit up. And in my head there was a lightning strike. His body began to ache, and he felt a surge of strength.
Only one second passed. But he already realized what and how he should do. As if several hours had passed.
[Connection to the Akasha system.]
[We start awakening.]
[Welcome. Player Lee Sung Hoon. You are awakened.]
“What… woke up? Sung Hoon looked at the status window with obvious bewilderment.
***
The Awakened and Director Akasha.
Ten years ago, when the first portals appeared, someone who introduced himself as the director of Akasha began to cooperate with humanity.
Endowed with amazing power himself, he chose random people, endowed them with strength and awakened. All the powers that the awakened received were incredibly different from each other.
These people got the opportunity to level up, accumulate experience points and use skills.
It was all like a game.
Soon, humanity got used to the power bestowed on some of its representatives and learned to use it and control it. If people could not learn this, then confrontation with monsters would be impossible.
I didn’t know that power was compatible with me, too, Song Hoon thought happily.
The soul in Song Hoon’s body came from another world. Plus, the power he was using didn’t belong to Earth. Although, the director Akasha himself descended to Earth from some other world.
“Well…”
“Status window,” he called.
[Name: Lee Sung Hoon
Race: Human
Profession: None
Level: 1
Strength: 18
Stamina: 21
Dexterity: 22
Disadvantages: 1
Luck: 35
Points: 0
Specialization: None. ]
Mana is equal to one. She rose due to what Song Hoon did recently. He felt mana and knew how to control it.
“I have awakened, but there is no profession? So I’m a special case? ” – the guy concluded.
Song Hoon closed the status window as it doesn’t matter at all right now. If he can use even a little mana, then that’s good. Besides, he had something to do.
He began to concentrate mana within himself. Since he was doing this for the first time, he had a headache, but that did not stop him. He directed the flow of mana to the heart and connected it in a special way.
Having done this …
– It’s done.
Mana formed a thin circle around his heart.
Circle of mana.
Only after that could one call oneself a real wizard.
[You have mastered the Magic skill.]
– Here it is, the power of God. Immediately analyzed my status … “Song Hoon laughed.
[Your profession has been changed.]
[You have acquired the Aspiring Wizard profession.]
“A beginner wizard? It turns out that the system does not have complete information about me? Does she know that I still have memories of a past life? Hmm … Is that really God? Or some kind of system designed in the likeness of God? I’ll need to find out about this later, “thought Song Hoon, and stirred the mana circle around his heart.
Its presence helped to focus faster and use more power.
The main way to train mages was to collect mana scattered around the area. They attached her to their mana circle.
A workout that allows you to increase the amount of mana.
The stronger and thicker the mana circle became, the stronger it became. And the easier it was to control power. The circle is initially very weak, but will become stronger over time.
“Fine. I will continue to train for 24 hours, “Sung Hoon decided.
Since he became one with himself in a past life and with himself in the present, he was able to quickly climb to a high level. In addition, he could conduct training in the background.
A message appeared.
[Mana increased by 0.01.]
“Oh, can you even check that?” Sung Hoon was pleasantly surprised and laughed.
The guy turned and looked around the burned gas station. Almost all of the people died, and some of the survivors were crushed by the debris and screamed in pain.
“Awful.”
Electric cars, armored vehicles, the corpses of the military and broken things were scattered everywhere. Sung Hoon suddenly realized that among the people at the gas station, almost no one had survived.
– It turns out … the border is destroyed.
Destroyed.
It was destroyed.
The last line of defense.
The military border was created after the signing of a ceasefire agreement between North and South Korea. But after the monsters destroyed North Korea, they began to call it the last line of defense.
North Korea has become a paradise for monsters and the main hunting ground for China, Russia and South Korea. So this place has become a springboard for the three countries, where military operations are constantly being conducted.
At the moment, the combined forces of the awakened and military are guarding the last line of defense.
Since small-caliber weapons almost do not harm monsters, machine guns, grenade launchers and even napalm are used.
This is not all, and the soldiers are using new electronic weapons.
For especially large monsters, recoilless weapons or incendiary bombs are used.
This is done because firearms are not capable of completely destroying a monster, but fire can fry it.
But some of the defenders came straight from the sky? This is proof that the monsters are really strong.
“ I’m hardly capable of that now … ” Song Hoon muttered in frustration.
looking at the corpses.
He turned to the scooter. That, of course, was also defeated.
“What a… lousy feeling.
Past life and present – they are mixed together. He was in an unusual position. Perhaps that was why the mood was lousy. The guy clicked his tongue and looked around.
“Maybe you should run?” He wondered.
But then I noticed small precious stones lying on the road. Song Hoon laughed and walked towards these stones, which were called cores.
“That’s lucky,” he said admiringly.
Core.
Natural material obtained from the bodies of monsters.
– A transport with cannon balls must have passed nearby, but it was thrown away by an explosion. Kya … I suddenly became rich. For a piece or two, you can get a few million won …
Taking the core in his hands, Song Hoon felt the mana flow. The core sparkled first, followed by concentrated mana.
“In my past life they were called magic stones … They really look good.
In front of him lay 32 nuclei.
Song Hoon quickly collected them and returned to the scooter.
Taking one of the stones in his hands, he drew a magic circle, using magic power.
The magic circle shone. A magical force moved inside him, which completely enveloped the scooter. There was a grinding sound of metal, and the broken scooter returned to its original state.
It was fully fueled and perfectly clean. There was not a speck of dust on the body.
[You have mastered the magic circle skill.]
[You have mastered a new use of the Restoration magic circle.]
[You have mastered Mana Cost.]
“Oh …” Sung Hoon exclaimed after reading all the notices.
He already realized that the system resembles a game system, but he could not imagine that magic would be registered as skills.
In addition, he learned one positive side of the Akasha system. It gives the awakened the necessary strength, in particular for the use of skills.
“That means I can not waste my own strength. How convenient. Using the forces received from the Akasha system, I can quickly improve, “the guy realized.
