Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Sitting upon the comfortable bed crossed leg, Jarvin trained in his aura with closed eyes. He wore a comfortable white robe and had his ash-grey hair combed back properly.

Opening his eyes, Jarvin got off the bed with a soft sigh. It was his normal routine to check the report from the business he started after finishing training.

Sitting upon the chair of his study table, Jarvin went through the pages in front of him one by one. Ceslia, his personal maid, had already organised the papers properly so that he could read it comfortably.

Jarvin had a frown on his face the whole time as he went through the reports. He didn't find anything weird with the paper, but instead his mind was wondering on a different matter.

'After the assassin guild failed to kill that bastard, Anelete, the owner of the mendert merchant group has been trying to search for the culprit like a madman.....'

Thinking this, Jarvin couldn't help but grimace upon his current situation. Annoyance and anger started rising within him like a surging tide.

'I need to keep my calm, being emotional would not get me anywhere.' Breathing out loudly, Jarvin calmed himself. He had already gotten used to feeling angry like this in the past few weeks.

Almost everyone in the noble society knew about the assassin attempt done upon Zick and princess Anastasia.

The most surprising fact in this incident was Zick defeating two master assassins. This could be said to be the main focus of this topic.

'My plan was no doubt perfect, which had a very low chance of failing. But I never expected for him to be hiding his strength.....'

Because of this, now Jarvin has been feeling restless for a while.

Catching his head with his right hand, Jarvin couldn't help but be disgruntled. This situation was totally out of his expectations.

Many people have been investigating who instigated this assassin attempt for a while now. This put Jarvin under immense pressure, he had already removed all the evidence of him being the culprit, but there was still one lead which could expose his deeds.

It was the assassin guild. The leader and the higher rank people in this guild would without a doubt know about him being the culprit. They can't sell him out with the oath taken between them, but there was still a chance there was a loophole that would let them go around it.

The assassin guild would without a doubt leak information about Jarvin if there was a way to go around the oath. They had suffered heavily losing four of their master assassins, so they held grievances with him which could not be easily solved.

'There is a chance they might blackmail me too in case they find a loophole in the agreement we made, sigh.....'

The only good information for Jarvin was that only half of the focus of the people investigating this assassin attempt incident was put on him. The other half was upon the person who collaborated with him.

Luckily this collaborator did not know about Jarvin identity as he was contracted through the assassin guild

At first, Jarvin just wanted to kill Zick because of being wary and cautious of him, but now he developed a genuine feeling of hatred and loathing against him.

'Killing that bastard will be almost impossible now that he is in the academic city and if he really is a swordmaster.....I can only give up if it's just me.' Jarvin knew when he needed to retreat and advance.

In his eyes, Jarvin still thinks that Zick had not figured him out as being the culprit yet.

Jarvin was also aware that the ruling forces would without a doubt be attracted by the news of a 15 year old boy becoming a swordmaster.

The action they would take was also predictable to Jarvin from the way they have been taking care of things till now.

Either suppression or extermination, the ruling forces would try to nib the poisonous bud before sprouting, which was Zick.

Or they will try to nurture this poisonous bud to turn into a normal flower like any other.

The Cravion kingdoms and the Melvix family were on the side of Zick, so chances of exterminating him were very low. But suppressing his growth was set in stone in Jarvin's eyes.

''Hmm.....it's still morning, today should also be the day that bastard starts going to the academy.'' Getting up from the table, Jarvin started heading towards the bathroom. When suddenly his steps came to a stop.

Jarvin could feel Ceslia was heading towards his room with hurried steps which was a very rare sight.

The only other time when Ceslia walked so hurriedly was when Jarvin's business near the the shore of the southern side of the continent was destroyed because of a natural calamity. Though she looks like an emotionless machine, she still cared and was loyal to him.

KNOCK! KNOCKN!

''Come in.'' Jarvin ordered with an interested look.

CLICK~

Entering the room, Ceslia didn't waste time and bowed toward Jarvin.

''I have a report master." Even Ceslia's voice was tinged with solemness.

''go on.''

Hearing her master's approval, Ceslia first handed over a yellow parchment to Jarvin and started speaking like a machine again.

''Yesterday after twilight, a large pillar of white light appeared from the sky and envelops the central part of the Academic city and the areas near it. After the light vanished, nothing was left in its place, it was a totally barren ground. In this incident, unfortunately mister Zick had also vanished along with the others.''

Hearing Ceslia speak and reading the things written on the paper, Jarvin's expression turned blank.

''Everything vanished?" Jarvin asked back with a dumbfounded look.

''Everything.'' Ceslia responded back monotonously.

*********************

In the vast sky, which expanded as far as the eyes could see. Suddenly a blur appeared which after expanding turned into a figure with black hair, who wore a comfortable white shirt and pants.

It was Zick in an unconscious state.

Slowly Zick's body started falling down rapidly. His hair and clothes fluttered wildly as he fell because of the air pressure.

Zick was dozens of kilometres above the sky and below him was a vast sea with no end to be seen.

If seen in the distance, dozens of more people were also falling from the sky just like Zick.

While Zick and the other people fell, a black cloud started approaching the area he was in swiftly.  The clouds looked very unnatural, it was extremely black and gave off a feeling of impending doom.

Unnatural red thunder rang through the clouds making a loud sound.

SPLASH!

Zick fell into the sea with a splashing sound, the cloud was also almost right above where he fell.

The cloud was large enough to cover the whole Academic city without a problem.

Blop....

Slowly sinking into the ocean Zick opened his eyes quickly. His instinct was screaming crazily for him to run.

'My head hurts like it has been splitting open! like this I wouldn't be able to use any big magic....And the magic disaster why did it happen so fast?.'

Zick easily found out that the magic disaster brought him here, comparing his situation to how it was in the . He stopped himself to think about the magic disaster for now.

Zick trusted his instinct so the first thing he considered was to run. He felt a shark type monster heading towards him.

Ignoring the monster, Zick first tried getting out of the water using his magic. From his instinct he felt danger from the red thunder coming from the black cloud above him.

Deciding swiftly, Zick first wanted to get out of the water as thunder would have its power amplified in the water.

But Zick faced another problem.

He couldn't use magic as smoothly as he used to!

Zick had wanted to use magic as that was the fastest way, but seeing that it almost took two times more concentration to just use normal magic. He used a little of his aura and accelerated upwards in a swimming motion.

All this happened extremely quickly, Zick didn't want to waste even a second with the danger in front of him.

SPLASH!

Even after getting out of the water, Zick's expression just got worse. He looked at the black clouds above him while floating in the air.

Just using magic to fly increased his headache tremendously. In this state using magic like [Warp] might even lead to Zick's death.

And seeing the black cloud, Zick's mood just got worse. He knew the identity of the black cloud.

'One of the five disasters, the red thunder qilin, Zrector...And the reason why I can't use magic must be because of the grandmaster's domain.'

Grandmaster's domain is also known as a lower rank dominance field by some people.

After a person or a thing enters the realm of grandmaster, their aura evolves into a higher form of energy.

This higher form of energy is multiple times stronger than aura. If not suppressed it would push all the mana in its atmospheres away, just like now.

This way, it would be hard for any mage to win against a grandmaster.

The red thunder qilin, Zhector is a monster with grandmaster rank strength and is also the monster Zick knew little of, as it didn't appear anywhere in the .

'Which means I am in the eastern ocean right at the moment...'

Zhector never left the Eastern ocean territory for some reason, Zick knew of This clearly.
