A noun entry: Wizard

They farm and fish every day, leading a very pleasant life.

Logically speaking, the extremely arduous farm work was nothing compared to Russell's powerful physique.

What takes a normal villager a day to do farm work, Russell only needs an hour.

Then comes a leisurely rest period.

They might go hunting in the mountains or fishing by the stream.

As for danger?

It should be the wild animals in the mountains that feel the danger.

A wild black bear that once reigned supreme in the mountains and was hailed as the overlord was nothing more than a docile little brother in front of Russell.

If Russell hadn't always offered the finest wild honey whenever he went into the mountains, he would have beaten him to death long ago and tasted the bear's paw.

"Roar!"

The black bear growled, its face displaying a human-like obedience, and respectfully presented Russell with the honey that had been prepared beforehand.

"Fufu, have some honey. My little bear brother worked hard to collect it. Look, it's covered in stings."

Russell patted the black bear on the shoulder and then handed the honey to Clover.

"Mmm." Clover took the honey with a shy expression and took a small sip.

"It's so sweet, thank you, Brother Russell."

"I'm glad you like it. I'll have Little Bear continue picking," Russell said with a smile.

The black bear wanted to roar a couple of times, but remembering Russell's strength, it trembled in fear and wisely swallowed its roar.

For Russell, going hunting in the mountains was like an outing.

That's why I felt at ease bringing Clover along.

Time gradually moved from dawn to noon, and then to sunset.

The two traveled around and saw many of Russell's tamed beast underlings.

They offered sacrifices to the poor, pitiful ones.

……

Days passed by, and Russell lived a leisurely life in Sack Village, which, barring any unforeseen circumstances, would continue indefinitely.

Ten years, twenty years.

His life ended decades later.

During this time, he may enter into a sacred marriage contract with Corleone under the witness of the god of time.

Or perhaps... her young aunt?

No, those are elders, and they cannot enter into a marriage contract. But what the other party wants is clearly not the so-called contract.

There are other ways to solve this.

Thinking of Evelyn, Russell instinctively rubbed his lower back, feeling somewhat sentimental.

"What a fulfilling life."

Russell stretched and looked at his reflection in the stream, suddenly noticing that the reflection's gaze was somewhat strange.

He crouched down and observed quietly.

The reflection in the stream is a mirror of Russell himself.

Russell saw the dissatisfaction.

Why the dissatisfaction?

What's there to be dissatisfied with?

Russell's eyes gradually filled with doubt, but the hint of dissatisfaction never disappeared.

"My life is leisurely and comfortable. I have no worries about food and clothing every day, and I also have a beautiful wife and lover. It is a life that countless people envy."

"What more could I possibly want?"

He suddenly became angry, picked up a stone from the ground, and threw it into the water.

Under Russell's immense force, it was as if a bomb had exploded in the water, engulfing his own reflection.

But as the stream calmed down, the reflection reappeared.

The dissatisfaction in his eyes grew stronger.

"I, I..." Russell stared at his reflection, sighed deeply, and slumped to the ground.

"I can't do anything with you. Anyway, I'm quite satisfied with my life right now... Oh, right, an evil god! It must be an evil god!"

"I've been bewitched by an evil god!"

Russell quickly made a strange gesture and began to pray to the god of time.

After a long while, he calmed down.

But that feeling lingered in Russell's heart.

"I need to go to the temple to pray."

Russell rushed to the most magnificent and exquisite building in Sack village, knelt down before a tall male statue, and began to pray again.

In the temple of the god of time, Russell felt a strange power blessing him during his prayers, which calmed his mind.

In the days that followed, Russell would come to the Temple of Time to pray every day.

Rain or shine for ten years.

He and Clover had a lovely daughter, and he would occasionally visit Evelyn's house.

It wasn't until the latter became pregnant that Russell formally entered into a second marriage contract and married her.

The villagers of Sack, and even Evelyn's father and sister, had no objections to this.

I simply wish them my best.

On the day Evelyn gave birth, Russell anxiously stayed by her side, even forgetting about his trip to the Temple of Time.

For this reason, Russell, who was pacing anxiously outside, worried about the safety of the mother and child, suddenly stopped.

His expression gradually calmed down.

Ten years of pent-up emotions erupted suddenly after the Temple of Time was no longer able to suppress them!

"Honey, what's wrong?"

Seeing Russell's change, Clover asked him with some concern.

Russell turned his head and saw his wife and daughter.

"Wife and daughter?"

"With Clover?"

"No, I don't have time for relationships."

"Has the research on true spirits been done? Has the research on space been done? Have the spells been improved? Has the soul been cultivated to become stronger?"

"I wish I had 48 hours a day to do research, how could I possibly have time to get married and have children!"

Russell covered his head, raised his hand to keep Clover away from him, his expression sometimes ferocious, sometimes painful.

"This can't be real!"

"Pastoral life? I'm a wizard! How could I possibly live like an ordinary person?"

A blurry box slowly appeared before Russell's eyes.

Name: Russell Insec

[Occupation]: Wizard, Knight

Rank: Wizard - Tier 2 (30%), Knight - Tier 7 (76%)

……

……

……

A series of messages flashed before Russell's eyes.

"This is... the dictionary system?" Russell struggled to examine the system panel in front of him.

"By the way, I'm exploring the wizard's ruins."

"I've been transported back in time."

"I kept reincarnating, my memories became increasingly blurred, and in the end I believed myself to be an ordinary villager from Sak village..."

"These are all fake."

"This wizard's ruins not only possesses the power of time, but also an incredibly powerful illusionary force."

"The combination of the two, in the endless rewind of time, allows the wizards who are caught in it to be controlled by the illusion without even realizing it."

"The downside is that it takes too long, and the ruins have been around for so long that they are no longer effective against fourth-tier wizards."

"The advantage is that once you get involved, it's very difficult to get out."

"What makes me different from ordinary wizards is that I possess a royal soul, which is equivalent to a weakened version of a fourth-tier wizard."

"However, because I did not give birth to the light of the soul, I cannot be completely immune to illusions and will be affected."

"But some memories will remain."

"Once I realize the problem, this illusion can no longer prevent me from regaining my senses."

Russell opened his eyes.
