Idle Mage: Humanity's Strongest Backer-Novel



As West Two stood before the heart of the corruption within the Celestial Vault, he felt its pulsating presence enveloping him. The air grew heavy with its malevolence, and the darkness seemed to take on a tangible form, swirling and shifting in an unnerving display.

To his astonishment, the corruption spoke. Its voice reverberated through the depths of his being, sending shivers down his spine and causing the very fabric of reality to quiver. It spoke with an ancient and ominous tone, each word laden with the weight of eons of suffering and despair. Its words bore into his mind, threatening to unravel his sanity.

But West Two was not defenseless. Drawing upon the depths of his power, he unleashed his Dream Law Domain. An ethereal aura surrounded him, a sanctuary that shielded his mind from the insidious influence of the corruption's voice. Within his domain, he maintained control over his thoughts and emotions, grounding himself in the realm of dreams where the power of his Trait held sway.

As the corruption's voice continued its assault, twisting and warping in an attempt to lure him into its web of darkness, West Two remained resolute. His Dream Law Domain emanated a soothing presence, countering the horrors that threatened to consume him. The hallucinations that would have driven a lesser soul to madness were but mere illusions to him, their potency weakened within the boundaries of his domain.

With each passing moment, West Two's presence grew stronger, pushing back against the sentience of corruption. He refused to be swayed by its maleficent whispers, instead focusing his energy on unraveling the mysteries that lay hidden within this abyss.

Though the corruption's voice continued to assail him, its potency gradually waned as the Dream Law Domain asserted its dominion. The abomination within the vault recoiled, its form flickering and distorting as if unable to fully comprehend the resilience of West Two's mind.

Undeterred, West Two stepped forward, his determination unyielding. The corruption, once a seemingly invincible force, now faltered in the face of his unwavering resolve. It realized that it could not break him, that its attempts to manipulate and corrupt his spirit were in vain.

The abomination within the Celestial Vault seethed with anger and frustration, its sentient essence recoiling against the presence of one who could resist its influence. Yet, West Two stood tall, his Dream Law Domain serving as a bastion against the tides of darkness.

Within the depths of the vault, the confrontation between West Two and the sentient corruption intensified. The clash of wills reverberated through the chamber, the corruption's voice now a mere echo against the resolute strength of West Two's being.

In this battle of minds, West Two remained steadfast, his Dream Law Domain shining as a beacon of his unwavering spirit. He would not falter in his quest to understand the nature of this corruption, nor would he succumb to its insidious whispers. With each step forward, he moved closer to unmasking the truth and bringing an end to the darkness that threatened humanity.

As West Two stood face to face with the sentient entity within the depths of the Celestial Vault, a shiver of alarm ran down his spine. The creature oozed with a potent corruption, its very existence a mockery of life. It stared back at him with eyes that held a depth of malevolence as if peering into the abyss itself.

At that moment, a quote from Friedrich Nietzsche of his old world echoed in his mind: "And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you." He couldn't help but feel the weight of those words as if the entity before him mirrored the darkest recesses of his being.

This encounter went beyond a simple battle against a physical foe. It was a confrontation with the very essence of corruption and chaos, an encounter that tested his resolve and sanity. The entity's gaze bore into him, unearthing fears and doubts that he thought long buried.

Yet, West Two refused to succumb to the abyssal gaze. He knew that if he let his guard down if he allowed himself to be consumed by fear, the entity would gain an insidious hold on his mind. With a deep breath, he steeled himself, drawing upon the strength of his Trait: 『Purity』.

As he emanated his Dream Law Domain, a shimmering aura of light enveloped him, pushing back against the suffocating darkness. The entity recoiled, its malevolence momentarily subdued by the power of his purity. But he understood that this was merely the beginning of the struggle.

In the depths of his being, West Two felt an intense urgency. He couldn't ignore the implications of this encounter. The sentient entity was a harbinger of doom, a manifestation of the very darkness that threatened to consume humanity. If left unchecked, its influence would spread, corrupting all in its wake.

He knew he had to do something. This was not a battle that could be won with brute force alone. It required strategy, knowledge, and an unwavering determination to protect what remained of humanity. West Two made a silent vow to himself that he would not rest until this abomination was sealed away, never to haunt the world again.

With a renewed sense of purpose, West Two took a step forward, never taking his eyes off the entity before him. He would delve deeper into the darkness, seeking answers, searching for a way to contain this threat. The weight of responsibility settled upon his shoulders, but he embraced it, for he knew that the fate of humanity hung in the balance.

As he ventured further into the depths of the Celestial Vault, the groans and cries of tormented souls echoed through the air. They served as a constant reminder of the urgency of his mission. With each step, he grew more determined, pushing past the boundaries of his fears, ready to face whatever horrors lay ahead.

West Two knew that this encounter would leave an indelible mark on his soul. It was a battle not only against the corruption within the vault but also against the darkness that lurked within himself. The abyss stared back at him, but he refused to let it consume him. He would face it head-on, armed with his Trait, his allies, and an unyielding resolve to protect humanity from the depths of the abyss.

As West Two pressed forward, his mind filled with a mix of alarm and determination. The encounter within the depths of the Celestial Vault had surpassed even his expectations of the corruption's malevolence. The sentient entity before him oozed with abhorrent darkness, a corruption, unlike anything he had ever encountered.

He understood the gravity of the situation. This creature, this embodiment of corruption, posed a severe threat to humanity and all of existence. Its presence alone could consume worlds, unraveling the very fabric of reality. If left unchecked, it could bring about untold destruction and despair.

The enormity of the task weighed heavily upon him, but he did not falter. Instead, his resolve hardened like steel, fueled by the knowledge that he was humanity's last line of defense against this abomination. With each step he took, his determination grew, knowing that he had to seal this creature away, to prevent it from wreaking havoc upon the world.

In his mind, West Two formulated a plan. He would draw upon the full extent of his powers, channeling the purity within him to counteract the corruption's influence. He would create a seal, a barrier so impenetrable that even the darkness within the Celestial Vault would be unable to escape.

His thoughts focused, his concentration unyielding, West Two readied himself for the final confrontation. He summoned forth the strength of his Trait, invoking his innate purity as a shield against the tides of corruption. The very essence of his being glowed with a radiant light, pushing back against the encroaching darkness.

With each movement, each gesture, he channeled his power into a complex array of symbols and incantations, weaving a web of arcane energy. The seal began to take shape, a manifestation of his unwavering determination to protect humanity. It shimmered with an otherworldly brilliance, a testament to the might of his will.

As the seal neared completion, the corruption writhed and twisted, its form contorted with rage and desperation. It recognized the threat West Two posed, knowing that its existence would soon be confined once more. The entity unleashed a final surge of dark energy, lashing out in a last attempt to break free from its impending imprisonment.

But West Two stood resolute. With a surge of power, he solidified the seal, its radiant glow intensifying. The corruption recoiled, trapped within the confines of its prison. Its malevolent presence, once suffusing the air, grew dimmer with each passing moment.

In that moment of triumph, West Two felt a mix of relief and satisfaction. He had accomplished his mission, sealing away the corruption that threatened the world. But he knew that his task was not yet complete. He understood the importance of alerting his allies, sharing his findings, and reinforcing humanity's defenses against this insidious force.

With his duty fulfilled, West Two took a final look at the sealed vault, its surface shimmering with ethereal energy. He turned, his steps purposeful, as he made his way back to where his allies awaited him. There was much to be done, and he was determined to see it through to the end.
