I, Jiang Chu, am a transmigrator.
From the start, I get a god-tier System, with godlike skills like 【Time Reversal】 and 【Control over Causality】 right in front of me.
And then… I slip up.
When my golden finger finally locks onto the unremarkable 【Mighty】 option, I think my life's over.
In this world, where mages reign supreme and the elements rule, I become a powerless weakling with no magic, only brute strength.
It isn't until I punch the air hard enough to make a fireball and stomp the ground hard enough to shake the earth that I finally get it.
Who says a body cultivator can't be a mage?
Physics is my ultimate magic!
While other mages chant spells and gather the elements
I paint a twenty-ton steel coil red and hurl it with a flourish. “Watch closely. This is called the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman. A physical exorcism, and right up your alley!”
While other mages summon divine beasts and make pacts
I pin a fourth-tier Earthshaking Bear to the ground and beat it until it weeps, then plant a foot on its head. “See? I won it over with love and peace. That's the Pokemon Persuasion Technique!”
While other mages lay down anti-magic formations, certain they've won
I haul a shipping container full of rebar and concrete, then hurl ten thousand “flying swords” in a single second. “Sorry, anti-magic formation… but can it stop my spells?”
And so, a “close-combat Arcane God” feared by every mage is born.
They say I've turned magic on its head. I say I've simply shown magic the way forward.
Don't bring up any so-called mechanical holy swords, and don't ask why I use talismans as projectiles.
Just call me Jiang Chu.
A refined, peace-loving… Grand Archmage of All Schools of Physics.
