Looking at the shimmering blue subtitles appearing before him, Krenk wiped the sweat from his palms, brushed his black bangs aside, and sighed with relief.

"It's finally over. Hopefully, no more people will come tonight."

He then opened another interface.

Name: Klenk Ludwig

Gender: Male

Age: 24

Race: Human

[Magic Power: 73/1200]

Less than half an hour ago, while working overtime with his project team to fix bugs, he suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and died, transmigrating into the game "Sword of the Celestial Pivot".

This is a magical world that blends Victorian and modern elements, with magic as the main theme and technology as a secondary element.

Krenk Ludwig, the predecessor of Krenk Ludwig, is a mid-game villain that players will inevitably encounter in the main storyline of this game.

"Genius child", "skipped three grades in one year", "the youngest chief professor in history"... and many other honors.

But behind the scenes, he was a big fraudster who used his family's power to murder other scholars, appropriate their research results, and then become the chief professor of St. Auster Magic Academy.

Even he himself was utterly useless in terms of magical skill.

A magic power cap of 1200 is equivalent to the level of an early-stage Tier 2 character.

At the St. Auster Magic Academy where he worked, the second rank was merely the minimum standard for admission; to put it bluntly, it was even less than the magic power of some great figures at birth.

It can be said that apart from being good-looking, she is good for nothing in other aspects.

In the end, in order to continue to weave together the titles of genius scholar, chief professor, and other lies, "Klenk Ludwig" created countless tragedies and atrocities, becoming the nemesis and adversary of countless people.

The game has thousands of endings, each vastly different, but the one constant is the death of the mid-game antagonist, Krenk Ludwig.

The death of this mid-game villain will affect the storylines of many important characters in the later stages of the game, as well as their respective fates.

Krenk Ludwig's death can be said to be the underlying code of this game.

He himself had transmigrated to a branch of the story where "Kroenke" was assassinated, and then he took over this body.

With the resurrection buff that transmigrators possess, plus the memories of their predecessor, Krenk quickly sorted out the current situation.

Then, taking advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness, Krenk silently attacked "V" from behind, piercing the opponent's heart with a magic missile.

then.

As he opened the window to let the smell of blood out, he happened to notice the second assassin: Ariel Essien had killed the backyard security guard and sneaked into the mansion.

However, the original body had exhausted all its magic power and was not sure of the opponent's exact strength.

So, quick-thinking Kroenke impersonated "V," using his position to intimidate the other party and lead them to sit on the chair with the poisoned cup.

Finally, he tricked Aleel into revealing the person who wanted to assassinate him, and watched him fall from the rooftop, dying from the poison.

All in one go.

Faint footsteps could be heard in the distance, clearly from the night patrol guards who rushed over to investigate after hearing the strange noises near the mansion.

A guard carrying a lantern rushed over. After seeing the body on the ground and glancing up at Krenk on the balcony, he quickly understood what had happened and began to speak:

"Young Master! Are you...are you alright?"

"fine."

Kroenke waved.

"And what about the young lady?!" the guard asked again.

"My sister is alright!"

While disguised as "V", Kroenke took a quick look into his sister's room next door and was not attacked.

Both assassins' primary target was themselves.

"Then, young master, is there anything else you need me to do?"

The guard said with trepidation that allowing the assassin into the mansion was already a major dereliction of duty.

Krenk opened his mouth, but then remembered the corpse lying on the blood-stained sheets.

He paused for a moment, then gave the following instructions:

"No need, the assassin is already dead. You just need to strengthen the security around the house."

"yes!"

The guard nodded, then turned and walked in the opposite direction, intending to recall all the guards patrolling the perimeter of the courtyard.

Kroenke turned around, came to "V's" corpse, and sat down.

His mind works very quickly.

He only managed to extract information from the second assassin, Allell, about one of the people who wanted to assassinate him—the Russell family.

However, the employer of the masked killer "V" remains missing.

In his previous life, Kroenke was just someone who wrote code to run games, so he didn't know much about the plot.

He also didn't know who sent this "V".

But one thing is beyond doubt.

Since the other party has the ability to hire such a monster to attack the predecessor, they must have also made preparations for the backup plan.

It may be difficult to find results by relying solely on law enforcement agencies.

Kroenke narrowed his eyes slightly.

Perhaps, he could announce to the outside world that he was only assassinated by the second assassin, Alaire, and then conceal the fact that he was assassinated by "V," in an attempt to lure out another enemy hiding beneath the surface.

Kroenke nodded, indicating that there was no problem.

So the most important thing now is to destroy "V's" body and leave no trace.

Krenk then focused his attention on his own magic power.

【Magic Power: 74/1200】

"Yes, some magic power has naturally recovered, but it's far from enough."

Krenk looked at his palm and clenched his fist.

He had just managed to kill the unsuspecting "V" from behind by focusing all his magical power into a single, deadly attack, thanks to his exquisite technique.

Now, his magic power is almost exhausted, and he is unable to cast a second spell.

If the magic power is allowed to recover naturally, then this corpse will likely be impossible to hide from others.

As long as someone sees the body in the room.

Then his plan to use "V" to lure out another mastermind might fall through.

Krenk now needs to use magic to cast a spell to destroy the corpse.

"So, how about trying to add some points?"

Kroenke remembered the points he had just earned.

He squinted, and a pale blue dotted frame, visible only to him, slowly appeared in his field of vision.

[Spirit Lv22 (0/720)]

【Mana Lv22 (0/720)】

Strength Lv12 (0/260)

[Constitution Lv15 (0/380)]

【Characteristics: Prone to misfortune, exquisite technique, and endless charm】

"It's exactly the same as the experience point allocation panel in the game I made in my previous life."

Krenk muttered to himself, focusing his gaze on the mana column in the second row.

As the name suggests, this column corresponds to your ability level as a mage.

This level represents the maximum amount of magic power one can possess, as well as the power of the magic one can use.

Krenk raised his hand, intending to try to inject all the points he had just acquired into the mana field at once.

He flicked his finger and tapped the mana stat column.

"Alright, System, it's time to show me your abilities."
