Gaining Knowledge Through Exploration

In a world of endless star fields and interdimensional wars, the wizards' floating city conquered one world after another.
At the wizard academy, through blood-stained exams, the towering wizard tower sent wizards batch after batch.
Becoming an apprentice wizard, Richard activated the miracle furnace deep within his soul, where constant refining of materials granted him knowledge and skills...
The veteran's weapon could be refined into legendary martial arts techniques.
The ancient wizard's encrypted notes could be refined into lost knowledge.
The remains of brutal monsters could be refined into monster bloodlines.
In this era of great voyages in the wizarding world, Richard was destined to become a leader of his time.

Wizard: I Can Refine Everything

"Once signed, that settles it." Richard smiled and signed his name on the other side of the Soul Contract.


As the contract burned to ashes, an invisible soul chain linked Philster and Richard together.


Dispelling the Rune Chain, the Flame Giant Philster silently lowered his head.


"Mm, good," Richard nodded in approval.


"Gah! This fool is hardly fit for cannon fodder." Ulysses flew in from the window and landed on Richard's shoulder, "In the Upper Plane War, cannon fodder is at least of legendary status. Only natives use those below legend as cannon fodder."


"That's true," Richard's hand emitted a black flame, "but I have a way to turn it into a Level 1 Creature."


"Gaah! With 'Annihilation Flame'?" Ulysses looked at the black flame, puzzled.


He was unaware that his innate flames had this effect.


Richard smiled mysteriously and said no more.


The knowledge of a Pioneer wasn't limited to just flesh creatures; elemental creatures were also included.
