The Master’s Oath

The Mystery of the Corrupted Well

The Mystery of the Corrupted Well

May 20, 2025

As soon as Kael and Lys entered the village of Pavorral, the grimório floated in front of him, glowing with an annoyingly cheerful tone.

> New Mission Available:  
> “Solve the Well Problem”  
> Description: “People are getting aggressive. Something or someone… is contaminating the well.”  
> Reward: Special technique or rare item.  
> Note: Priority level… debatable.

Kael glanced sideways without even stopping.

“Another weird mission.  
Again.”

The ghost popped up beside him, spinning lazily.

“So… you gonna accept it?”

Kael sighed.

“Like I have a choice? When this pops up, it means that even if I ignore it, the system will find a way to drag me in.”

---

As they walked through the village, they noticed something strange.  
People were aggressive, pacing back and forth, arguing over stupid things.  
Two guys argued about who had the softest bread, while others threw rocks at the chicken coop.

Lys frowned.

“What a… weird place.”

Kael shrugged.

“Just another Tuesday in this broken world.”

---

Suddenly, a scream tore through the air:

“WHEN I CATCH THAT LOOSE-ASS BASTARD, I’LL GUT THAT MF!!!”

A cross-eyed old man, with eyes aiming in opposite directions, sprinted through the village waving a shovel.

“Who… who’s that?” Lys asked, perplexed.

One villager, panting, trying to hold the crazy old man:

“That’s Old Jenkins…  
Ever since they… started contaminating the well… he’s been like this…  
A monster!”

Old Jenkins screamed, foaming at the mouth:

“I’LL MAKE THE RESPONSIBLE EAT EVERY DAMN STONE OF THIS VILLAGE WITH HIS ASS!!!”

While four men tried to restrain him, the old man bit at the air and kicked random buckets.

Kael turned to the ghost:

“This… is definitely not just ‘people getting aggressive.’  
There’s something more.”

The grimório flashed:

> Mission Updated:  
> “Find out who or what is contaminating the well.”  
> Hint: Not all crap is physical.

Kael scratched his neck.

“Great. Here we go.”

---

They headed to the village center, where a group of villagers argued around the well.

“Every morning… it’s there!”  
“But no one saw who did it!”  
“No footprints… but there’s… the gift.”

Lys grimaced.

“This is getting nastier by the minute.”

Kael analyzed the scene, thoughtful.

“Invisible… no traces… and making everyone go nuts.  
Hmm…”

The grimório flashed again:

> Potential Reward: Rare technique related to purification.

Kael smirked.

“At least there’ll be something useful at the end.”

Lys raised her spear.

“How do we start?”

Kael took a deep breath and replied with his usual sarcastic calm:

“First… we wait until nightfall.  
If someone’s making a mess in secret…  
(serious look)  
…they’re not gonna do it in front of the whole village.”

Kael Thorne was just a regular guy from Earth — until he woke up in a world where power rules, masters are gods, and survival depends on how well you can fake it.

With a secret system only he can see, an invisible grimoire handing out absurd rewards, and a floating ghost version of his inner panic, Kael must maintain the facade of a legendary Master while learning how this world works one bluff at a time.

In a corrupt land ruled by strength, Kael might just become a legend — as long as no one finds out he's making it all up.
