ThievingHeaven

Hutson, a man reborn into a ruthless and dangerous world, now inhabits the body of a young hunter in a small barony. With no connections and nothing to his name, he must rely on his sharp mind and cunning to rise through a medieval-like society. As he climbs the social ladder, he uncovers a terrifying truth: wizards, beings far more powerful than any knight or noble, rule over the world. Driven by this discovery, Hutson throws himself into the pursuit of wizardry—a path darker and more brutal than he could ever have imagined. In a world where betrayal lurks around every corner, Hutson seeks what all others desire: immortality. With his intellect and ruthlessness, he will stop at nothing to claim it for himself.

The Dark Mage Of The Magus World

Hutson had ventured deep into Moonlight Forest, now a good thirty minutes' walk from the forest's entrance.

"I'll push forward a little further using AI chip's detection, but not too deep. The moment something feels off, I'll retreat."

The outer regions had been nearly stripped of Slumbering Mushrooms. If he wanted more, he had to take a risk.

But the forest's depths harbored two primary dangers:

The creatures—beasts of magic, twisted plants, and things far worse.The sorcerers of Green Lodge—those who ruled these woods in the shadows.

The deeper he went, the thicker the fallen leaves became, layering the forest floor like a soft, decaying carpet.

Some patches were so dense, they reached up to his knees.

Thankfully, AI chip's sensory field ensured he wouldn't step into a hidden pit or a trap.

For the next hour, he remained cautious, keeping within this safer region.
