Chapter Summaries

Josh and Akathosh worked out how to make Josh’s fantasy Susanoo easier to cast by turning it into an innate spell stored in his eyes, though using other spells would become slower. After Akathosh transferred the spell into Josh’s eyes, Josh named it Seraph and planned to develop it further.

• Josh considered using Void Shield to strengthen his giant defensive spell and worried about how long it took to cast.
• Akathosh explained that Josh could store the spell in his eyes like a Warcraft creature’s innate magic, at the cost of delays when casting other spells.

With the students close to finding the snake needed for his soul-summoning spell, he prepared to finish the plan and make this world his vacation spot.

• Josh asked Akathosh why his pupils became pentagrams when he cast Seraph, and Akathosh compared the effect favorably to being covered in runes.

Josh returned to Constantinople with students from a magic academy and an engineering team, then revealed to Frank that he could use four elements and was close to reaching the Fifth Tier.
