After spending nearly all his points, Orsaga returned once again to the life of hard labor.
Typically, after completing a mission, each Purgator was granted a month of rest.
But being completely broke, Orsaga chose to start the next mission early.

[Purgator ID: 8748574]
[Race: Half-Human, Half-Angel]
[Gender: Male]
[Power Rating: D ]
__
Despite having undergone significant enhancent and absorbing the powers of two Angles, Orsaga—ever the advocate of doing things for fun—intentionally kept his power level low.
After all, he wanted to ss around as an ordinary person among others.
Thus, his rating remained at D , even though his Blade could easily slaughter the majority of high-level Purgators.
---
[Begin mission?]
"Yes."
[Detected: This is the Purgator's first official mission. Initial profession selection will now begin...]
"?"
This ssage left Orsaga stunned.
He had no idea what a "profession selection" was.
Soon, the screen before him flickered.
Over a dozen options appeared before him, each accompanied by shifting avatars of various individuals—so tall, so short, beautiful or bizarre.
[Fighter], [Mage], [Martial Artist]...
Each profession was clearly labeled.
Orsaga blinked in confusion.
"...What is this ss? I'm supposed to pick one of these?"
Having skipped the guide/tutorial earlier, he had no clue what was happening.
Fortunately, the Matrix Purgatory had anticipated the existence of clueless Purgator like Orsaga—and equally irresponsible guides.
As the list of options finished loading, a helpful explanation appeared below.
"After successfully completing the rookie mission, a Purgator is deed capable and thus eligible for one-ti free access to supernatural training. This is a rare chance to establish a proper foundation. Please choose carefully"
Reading this, Orsaga's eyes lit up.
"Wow, the Matrix Purgatory even offers pre-job training? How thoughtful!"
Without further hesitation, he chose the "Mage" profession.
No explanation needed.
His true self had always been a caster-type anyway—even if he enjoyed smashing enemies with his bare hands.
Now, within the Matrix Purgatory, he decided to try a different build—
A mage who pilots chs.
A new beginning, a new experience!
Once his choice was confird, a series of worlds appeared in front of him:
[The Sorcerer's Apprentice], [Harry Potter], [The Mummy]...
All were beginner-to-interdiate magical worlds designed to ease novices into spellcasting.
After glancing over them briefly, Orsaga realized sothing:
He didn't recognize most of them.
In fact, he had no idea what the majority of those worlds were, let alone their advantages or dangers.
So, he opted for random selection.
And the next second—
[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone]
This na popped up in front of him.
"Huh, a world I actually recognize."
In his past life, he had happened to watch that movie.
So, he knew the basic plot:
A loser dark wizard gets reverse-slain by the protagonist's parents, holds a grudge, and lies low for years. Then, just as the protagonist grows up, he makes a flashy coback attempt... only to get slapped back down again before fully reviving.
With only a rough idea of the first movie's events, Orsaga figured that was more or less the gist of it.
So, he casually confird his choice and prepared to dive into the fun.
Then, a new ssage appeared:
[This world's magic system requires an innate magical bloodline. Would you like to exchange for one?]
"So, like being a natural spellcaster?"
Without overthinking it, Orsaga confird.
Dozens of bloodlines from the Harry Potter universe then appeared before him:
[Thestral], [Unicorn], [Thunderbird], [Troll]...
Their prices varied greatly depending on strength and purity—ranging from a few hundred to tens of thousands of reward points.
Orsaga glanced at his remaining balance—only 1,000 points—and muttered:
"Give a bottle of Thunderbird blood. Just trade as much as I can get for 1,000 points."
A second later, his reward points hit zero.
At the sa ti, a massive glass container filled with fresh blood appeared in front of him.
Staring at the enormous bottle—almost as tall as himself—Orsaga fell silent.
"…Huh. Looks like this stuff is kinda cheap."
And indeed, it was.
If he wanted to fully alter his bloodline via transplant, 1,000 points wouldn't have even scratched the surface of Thunderbird-level magic.
But for a simple bottle of Thunderbird blood? That was doable—and in bulk.
After all, the tech required for the two procedures wasn't even on the sa scale.
Orsaga casually extended a finger and stabbed it straight into the glass.
Thanks to his innate ability—
[Material Fusion]
The blood inside began to drain rapidly, as if being drunk by an invisible mouth.
Within monts, the bottle was completely empty.
Closing his eyes for a brief adjustnt period, Orsaga used his Apostle powers and vast biological knowledge to analyze the absorbed Thunderbird blood on a microscopic level.
He decrypted the bloodline's secrets in re monts.
All useless gene fragnts were imdiately discarded.
The valuable parts were extracted, copied, and integrated into his body—modified to better suit him.
A few minutes later—
His angel powers naturally acquired the magical attributes of the Thunderbird.
Everything was ready.
With a final confirmation, the Matrix Purgatory began the transfer process.
---
"Ah... a strange new sky!"
Reciting the classic entry line, Orsaga groggily picked himself up off the ground and grumbled:
"Ugh. This transfer tech really needs an upgrade."
At the sa ti, a stream of data flooded his mind:
[World successfully entered. Mission starting...]
