[Difficulty level has been selected. The inheritor has chosen the highest level of difficulty.]

[Recalculating the gift to be given to the heir.]

[Preparing displacement magic for use by the inheritor]

…

[Preparations complete. You are advised to take the acceptance gift before being transported to the new world. This is very important to prevent you from dying shortly after you move to a new world.]

[After you have finished transferring, the system guidance will be terminated. The heir can only rely on yourself and the system will not interfere with you in making decisions]

Leon read everything and checked the acceptance gift he received. He looked at the Babel system that he currently has. Leon couldn't help but feel happy when he looked at the status screen in front of him.

[Babel System

Name: Leonardo Constantine

Level: Ordinary human

Talent: Perfect Memory (Innate), Multilinguistics, Comprehension of survival skills, Comprehension of Martial Arts.

Status: leader of the magic tower of Babel]

There are many other things in this system such as the domain panel of the Magic Tower of Babel itself, the quest panel, the message panel, and the member panel of the Magic Tower of Babel. There were no other panels such as shops or anything related to points in the system novels he had read.

From the start, this system was not like the system in those novels. Leon wouldn't be able to develop fraudulently even when he had something like this system. But he had something even more fraudulent than something as lowly as a system.

It was the magic tower of Babel itself.

"As for the matter of the magic tower of Babel, I will think about it after I am transported to the new world."

Leon immediately opened the message panel and received the acceptance gift he got. The gift had a shape like a tesseract that had a sea blue color and a light from the center of the tesseract that gave off an inexplicable atmosphere.

Leon opened the tesseract. Five balls of light immediately appeared

1. The veil of fate

This reward is given specifically to inheritors who choose the Nightmare difficulty. No one will be able to observe, change, or spy on your destiny, but your destiny will have a significant influence on other people. Every step you take will change the world. Every action you take will carve the world in an unknown direction.

2. Obscuring karma

This prize is given to those who choose the Hard difficulty level and above. Since you selected the Nightmare difficulty, the rewards have been recalculated and are better than before. You will never be affected by karma and your every action will leave no trace even in space and time itself.

3. Magic Tower of Babel secret support technique manual

As the leader of the magic tower of Babel, your low ability is a great disgrace to Babel's dignity and reputation. After considering various things and the possibility of quest rewards that you will get in the future, this technique will be immediately passed on to you to support your development, as well as catch up with the speed of development of monsters on the Nightmare difficulty level.

4. Knowledge of universal languages

The leader of the magic tower of Babel was a person who was knowledgeable and could not be compared by common sense. Therefore, language was something that all members of the magic tower of Babel mastered. This gift will give you absolute mastery of all languages.

5. Basic knowledge of magic and mana.

Upon further consideration, there was no way the inheritor would survive for even one second after arriving in the new world because excess mana would instantly kill you. Therefore, this knowledge will be given to assist you in helping you overcome what is necessary and shape the direction of the magic you desire.

[The remaining acceptance rewards will be given after you move to the new world.]

The five balls of light moved as fast as light and entered Leon's body. That speed was so fast that it didn't even give Leon a chance to be surprised. What happened next was nothing but pain as if his fist was being split in two and someone was driving thousands of nails into his brain.

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

"Akkkhhh..." Leon screamed loudly, very loud.

This pain surpassed all the pain he had ever felt in his life. Every second that passed felt like tens of thousands of years. Time seemed to be twisted and not running as it should.

Complex and intricate knowledge was implanted in his head. The reaction from the comprehension process of the universal language knowledge as well as the basic level magic and mana knowledge gathered by the magic tower of Babel filled Leon's entire small brain.

"This… This… Ahahahahaha…" Leon laughed out loud while holding back the pain in his head. His expression was twisted to form a strange contrast. Moreover, his entire body was bleeding from all the holes in his body.

Leon endured the pain for more than an hour. This was the longest hour he had felt in his life. Even after all that was done, there was no change that he could feel.

It's not that it was all for nothing. But this world didn't have a single bit of Mana so Leon couldn't utilize the knowledge provided by the system.

Leon collapsed while looking towards the starry sky. He took one last look at the sky before ordering the system to move it.

"I'm ready. Move me." With the last strength he had, Leon slowly closed his eyes. The last thing he saw in this world was the system screen in front of him.

[good luck heir. You need that.]

***

"Sir… Sir… are you okay?"

"Hey, you're sure he won't die, right? I don't want to deal with anything troublesome."

"Then do you want to take him to the guards? At least they can heal it with better magic there."

"Do you know what the words 'I don't want anything troublesome' mean? besides, the cost of getting such magic treatment is too expensive."

The two men talked while looking at a man sleeping in front of him. The man who fainted was naturally Leon who was transported to this world. The wounds and blood all over his body had been treated by these two people, but Leon still hadn't woken up until now.

"So, what do we do next?" one of the men asked.

"Well, why do you ask me? It was your idea to help this person." The man's friend picked up his bag and walked back towards town. "I don't want to get involved in these troublesome things. If you still want to help him, you can look for me at the bar where we usually meet."

And with that, his friend left for the city. He could only shake his head while sighing softly. "Sorry friend, but I can only help you up to this point."

He immediately packed his luggage and immediately followed his friend.

Neither of them could see a blue screen floating right in front of Leon. The 3-dimensional magic circle surrounding the system screen slowly disappeared without causing the slightest distortion to the 'Mana' in the world.

The system screen immediately disappeared as if it had carried out its task. Leon, who was still fast asleep, slowly woke up when his skin felt a trace of warmth and a cool feeling that was very refreshing to the body.

He opened his eyes and smiled looking at the blue sky. His body was no longer lying on hard ground but a small hill filled with short grass that filled the hill. "It seems I succeeded"

Leon slowly raised his head and looked towards the city under the hill. It is a beautiful city with a Victorian era architectural style with a mix of magic and science. The combination of the two gives a new feel to this vast city.

Curiosity exploded and flowed throughout Leon's body. He wanted so badly to run and explore and experience everything this city had to offer, but he held it all back. "First of all…"

Leon sat cross-legged and breathed carefully. With every full breath, cold air filled his lungs and something else also entered his body, spreading throughout his body in an instant. He immediately circulated all that energy throughout his body with every breath he took.

That energy is Mana. Based on the knowledge provided by the system, this is the source of all magic and is a universal energy that has the best flexibility of all existing energies.

"It feels very refreshing." Leon enjoyed every breath he took and felt the Mana spreading throughout his body. Every part of his body from the largest to the smallest as the cells in his body felt like they were being cleansed.

"The secret manual of the Tower of Babel magic, Mana Breathing. Even though this was just a simple secret manual, it was truly a terrifying technique. In fact, the entire process of breathing runs very smoothly without the slightest error in my body." Leon was amazed by the depth of Babel's technique.

Please be aware, that it would be impossible for Leon to be able to complete even one cycle of mana bearing even if he had all the knowledge about it. There is a huge difference between knowing about theory and doing actual practice.

This is like a baby who knows how to run but when he wants to stand up, he will definitely fall. Mistakes are bound to arise and failures are bound to occur especially when one tries for the first time. But Leon didn't experience problems like this.

The mana in the air was drawn into his body every time he breathed, spreading throughout his body without even needing Leon to direct it himself. In fact, the process is very smooth without the slightest error.

Of course, this is not because Leon is a genius or someone with monster-like talent. No, it's not like that.

If Leon tries to do the mana breathing cycle himself, he will immediately die right after the mana in the air enters his body and destroys his lungs.

Even with a combination of basic knowledge of magic and mana as well as knowledge of the Mana Breathing manual, Leon still wouldn't be able to do this.

This technique works on its own because a complex magic circle is planted in the base of his soul which is compressed in such a way. Leon knew that it was impossible for him to understand how this could happen due to the lack of knowledge he had.

After all, basic level knowledge is still basic level knowledge. According to the system information regarding this technique manual, to reproduce the magic circle in the depths of his soul, he needed certain advanced knowledge contained in the magic tower of Babel's library.

Since the system said that, Leon could only believe it.

"a technique like this was only dropped as a simple support technique by the magic tower of Babel." Leon chuckled as he thought this. He couldn't imagine how people would react when hearing this.
