[One short]
[Mashle Magic x fanmade]
Note: Because this is a oneshot, I will skip some details or it will not be the same as the plot in the manga.
In a world of no-nonsense; when people are still trying to succeed on their own path; becoming the person everyone wants to achieve, I - a 20-year-old youth with the dream of becoming a true otaku, paving a bright path for the anime industry - am the most unlucky person in the world.
Unlike some idiot in the story who got hit by a truck and then isekai to another world, becoming a popular hero with terrifying power and creating a harem for himself. But this is reality, everything is just an illusion because I am always oppressed by family and friends pressure and don't even have a good love... Becoming a villain in a cruel world. TOO CRUEL!
The thought suddenly ran through my mind while I was sipping a cigarette on the balcony of my rented room, work was still busy according to the company schedule. I have long wanted to live independently, to mature with my own life in the future.
"Phew... Haizz..."
I blew out a puff of smoke and flicked the cigarette ash. Returning to the bedroom; on the familiar cozy bed, I fell asleep and ignored everything around me because today I had spent it on useless things... My eyes just drifted into eternal sleep. My head gradually became empty in the endless space... There was no wind, sound or even any noise, it was so quiet that it was scary... . .
"Ouch! My head... ."
I cried out in pain, something just hit my head, it hurt so much! My eyes suddenly opened to see what just fell on my head. Then suddenly I was lying alone outside with a bright light shining in my eyes.
"What...what...Huh?!" I shouted in confusion.
A vast meadow full of flowers and grass all around with a murmuring river and stream flowing over there on the other side of the field. The wind still blew gently and fluttered against me. I was extremely confused, where am I? I don't know anymore, have I just entered another world?
"So confusing " T-T
When I looked down at my feet, a wand appeared out of nowhere, carved and polished with great precision. Like many fantasy books I've read, I could conclude that this was a magic wand? Why does it look like the chopsticks I use to eat rice? No need to pay much attention, I need to know where this is and why I appeared here.
Suddenly, a noisy sound kept blowing in my eardrums. I looked up at the sky and there were only clouds, sky, and brooms.
Nothing strange. . . .
"What's with the broom in the sky? My head is messed up!!" I screamed, unable to close my mouth.
"Ah! Traveler! . . . When did you get here?"
A voice came from behind; I quickly turned around to look and oh my a girl with short blonde hair to her shoulders and an orange bow tie with a black coat and a white shirt with a red tie and a long black skirt. She had a black mark on her face that I was seeing.
"Who are you?"
"I'm the mage Lemon Irvine studying at Easton Magic School. Are you a new transfer student?"
Now I noticed that the outfit she was wearing now was the same as hers and this wand was definitely real! The girl still deliberately started a conversation like an NPC I had played before - excited and full of enthusiasm.
"You're not going, the aptitude test is about to start inside the city"
"There's a city here?" I thought to myself
"Come on, I'll take you there quickly" She said while holding her broom.
"FLY UP!" She shouted and the broom floated in the air
Wow, this is no longer fake, I'm really in a fantasy world. She asked me to sit on the broom but my spirit was a bit scared
"If I fall, will there be any isekai?" I thought to myself
"It's okay, I know how to drive, don't worry :>" She looked very proud
"Then.." I sat on the broom and then... WHOOSH!!
Before I could figure it out, the broom flew at the speed of sound, causing my soul to fly into the air.
"SLOW DOWN! PLEASE!" I screamed in despair
"It's okay, I can handle it" she was still calm, while I was about to fall.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAA!" I screamed in despair
-A moment later-
"Here we are, Easton Magic School" She said as she pointed to the castle ahead.
A castle painted in scary colors with sturdy towers just like the Harry Potter movies I've seen. Countless young wizards like me were standing crowdedly on the lawn outside the tower. But I didn't care much, I just wanted to land safely T-T
"Ta da! You can get off now!" The broom just landed at the selection place
I'm free, I'm so happy! I cried happily in my heart.
"Hey hey, is that... Wow, looking at him lifting the weights with just one hand... I can't believe it!!" Everyone was talking loudly over there, I don't know why?
Suddenly a misty smoke appeared and the figure of a stranger appeared out of nowhere. A man with messy orange-blond hair and a long black line across his face.
"I am Mr. Claude Lucci, the professor of this school. I will be the one to evaluate your abilities."
His words were arrogant with a contemptuous smile on his face towards the magicians. I now also wanted to shoot him a few times, but I didn't know how to use magic.
"Today's test is about whether you can solve or survive this dense, dangerous and deadly maze, that's up to you, and now... Begin!"
He raised his wand and summoned countless rocks to form a solid wall. As if an earthquake had happened, everything had turned into a maze. I was surrounded by walls on all four sides, dense vegetation, and dangerous creatures and monsters lurking and hiding, which could cause me to reincarnate at any moment.
"Oh my god, what should I do now? Am I going to get stuck in here so easily?" I panicked and ran around looking for a way out of the maze, but no... EVERYTHING IS A DEAD END!!
"Where... Where... Ah, another dead end! Ah! Ah! Ah..." That's right, I screamed over and over again but still couldn't think of a way out. Then I heard a strange noise from in front of me. From the corner appeared a tall monster with four arms holding weapons, ready to kill me at any moment...
"You're a magician? I've also beaten them to the point that they gave up their future as magicians like you. So now... Say goodbye!" The monster smiled at me with a disgusting smile as it glared at me.
"Where's my wand...where's it!" I said as I fumbled for my wand.
"Ah, here it is...Huh." I was blocked by a shadow but it wasn't just the monster standing very close in front of me.
Pointing the wand at the monster and defeating it is what I'm about to do, but I'm afraid I still don't know how to use it. Oh my isekai life is over... That's it, right? I stood there helplessly, without any strength, kneeling down and biting my face.
"Oh! You give up already? I guessed right! You're just an ignorant person like the others... Goodbye to your life!" He shouted loudly as he was about to swing the sharp, large sword at himself.
"It's over... I'm not worthy of being a mage in the first place." I thought to myself.
! ! ! BOOM ! ! !
"What... ? ! HUH !!" I exclaimed in surprise before my eyes
The monster was destroyed, no way? A loud explosion tore apart the peaceful and quiet space and the dust was still hazy as if there had just been a big explosion here. Now I saw that the wall had been... punctured with a big hole... no no, in other words, the maze had been destroyed by someone who damaged it, creating a way out of here.
I was happy and hurriedly ran out, thinking that this test would end, but over there I saw a group of people surrounding and criticizing someone.
"Isn't that her?" The person who helped me get here was timidly standing behind the muscular six-pack guy with a pretty good haircut. Could it be that he was the one who broke the walls of this maze! How strong!
"CHEATER! . . .GET OUT OF THE ACADEMY... YOU ARE NOT WORTH THE TITLE OF A MAGE... GO AWAY!" Everyone was shouting and cursing him, but his face was still cold and indifferent to all of that.
"HE DID NOTHING WRONG!" She shouted towards everyone
"It was Mr. Lucci who told me to stop him from passing the exam..."
Everyone was shocked by the unbelievable thing and turned to Mr. Lucci.
"YOU... YOU!" He looked full of anger
"YOU DARE TO OPPOSE ME?! Didn't I give you the path and yet you rebelled? I should have failed you two from the start because you are just a burden to this magic university! So... GET OUT!!"
He quickly took out his wand and pointed it at the two of them with a murderous aura.
~Terrain~
He chanted a spell into his wand, creating countless long, twisted tentacle roots that caused the ground to crack and shake. The magicians were running around in panic. . .
"YOU TWO WILL PAY FOR YOUR CRIME!" He shouted angrily.
*Music starts
There's no time left, they'll be in danger! Come on... Don't be shy! Pick up your wands and fight!!!
"HAAAAAAA !!" I quickly grabbed my wand and pointed it at him.
~ whirlwind ~
A storm of thunder and lightning darkened the sky as if it were a hurricane. Suddenly... . .
! ! ! BOOM ! ! !
A powerful lightning bolt struck around him so hard that the tree roots were burned to ashes and nothing was left but his messy, smoky black hair.
"What... What...? You there!" Surprisingly, he was still standing after that lightning strike but his hair was all discolored.
"I'll show you!"
He was about to raise his wand again when suddenly the guy with the shaved head ran up at the speed of sound and broke his wand.
"... Huh?" He was surprised
"She's not the one who's wrong, you're the one who's wrong here." He said in front of him with the broken pieces of his wand.
"YOU!"
"STOP!!!"
The voice came from an old bearded man who had witnessed the whole thing happening right here. The wizards were still discussing because that was... the Headmaster - the greatest and most powerful wizard in the magical world. The old man walked towards us and turned to Mr. Lucci with a serious, disappointed look.
"Headmaster, I... I..."
"You meet me in the office"
Before he could say anything, he bitterly admitted his guilt and teleported away. The old man looked at us curiously.
~teleportation~
His shout teleported him and me into a pitch-black room, with only the light in the middle illuminating us. Up high in the room, there were four people sitting in rows of chairs. They were probably the high-ranking mages in this school.
"We'll start the final round, Mash Vandead and... What's your name?"
Damn, I just finished an isekai so I'm not in a hurry to think of a nickname. How about Harry Potter or Dam Vo Do,... Ah, I already know what it should be!
"My name is Hector Voldemort sir!"
"Oh! Let's begin!"
"With pleasure" He replied calmly
"First of all, I want to ask why did you choose this school?" The principal's voice was stern
"...So that I can live...peacefully with my family"
A voice mixed in from someone around the room
"That's not an answer! Please explain further..."
"That's enough, what about you?" The principal's voice was curious
He sat on the chair with a cold murderous expression on his face and turned to look at me.
"I...I want to become the strongest mage to protect this world"
"Are you being arrogant?" The principal asked curiously.
"That's what I can do... become the strongest mage!" I said firmly and loudly.
"Ho Ho Ho Ho! Your answers are so interesting!" Principal smiled kindly at us.
"Then..."
"Huh! ! !"
! ! ! Boom ! ! !
"Wha... what?" I exclaimed in surprise
A heavy amount of magical power was pressing down on the room, causing a continuous shaking. It was the principal! He was still observing us from afar with stern eyes.
"What if the enemy is myself?" He said
I was still struggling to stand as the room was gradually cracking. The increasingly dense murderous aura made it difficult for me to move.
I tried to reach for my wand but couldn't seem to...
"I don't want anyone to suffer..."
I didn't expect that he was still unharmed and tried to resist the pressure.
"So... please stop."
Mashle face was still stupid but very calm in the face of a difficult and dangerous situation.
"Are you ordering me to stop?" Principal face was still serious and refused to stop
Just a little more, I got it! I raised my wand in a dragon-like manner even though my strength was not enough but... DON'T GIVE UP!!
~Dissoleves~
"Huh?" The old man was surprisingly calm
"Everything! ! Back to normal!?" The mages around him were talking loudly, filling the room.
"Silence!" He exclaimed
"You are the one who broke my spell?"
"Could it be that you... want to oppose me?"
The old man still acted coldly towards the development of the incident and was threatening me in a suffocating way. I couldn't refute, afraid that he would expel me from school or put me in jail T-T
"If you are an enemy, I... will defeat people like you with my fists!" Mashle said
He looked at the principal seriously, making him a little surprised
"I will not hesitate to... defeat you" I replied in an extremely serious tone.
"HO HO HO! You two are very special, my fault. This is just a test, I don't want to make things difficult for you two" The old man exclaimed excitedly and became gentle again
"I welcome you to the Eston magic school!" The old man said
"Goodbye now!"
After finishing the sentence, we teleported out of the room. Indeed, he was a person who could not be joked with, so they were afraid of that unparalleled power. I thought to myself when suddenly a voice called out.
"Thank you, I am Mash vandead, nice to meet you"
He said but his face still didn't change, still as stupid as usual. Suddenly, he took something out of his cloak.
"Cream puff, this is a thank you gift." He took out the cream puff and gave it to me.
"Thank you very much..." I replied
"I don't know but there are things I have to achieve" He said
"Then let's become magicians together!" I exclaimed while raising my fists and pointing them up to the sky
"Okay, I'll try... try?" He looked at me blankly and stupidly, confused
It's okay, that's fine- I thought to myself
"Ha Ha! GO FOR IT!" My shout echoed in the dreamy blue sky, opening the door to the upcoming adventure!
-Meanwhile-
In the principal's office, he was still thinking about something. . .
"That Hector... There are three black lines on his face that I've never seen before... What a special student. ."
THE END
*Real ending: The main character wakes up from the dream and finds his life miserable, then returns to his normal days :/
Au: What do you expect from the ending with a world that isn't real? Wake up, there's no fantasy or miracles here, wake up and look at life. :)
