Galactic Supreme Mage

Archmage Ludwig got too carried away during an experiment and accidentally blew up his lab—sending his soul transmigrating into the interstellar era! 【Cheers from the struggling skeletons, devils, and evil spirits left in the lab】 Yet, right after crossing over, he learned that his "fiancé" coldly annulled their engagement: "Our betrothal is void. My family cannot accept a partner whose ability scores are so low they can’t even board a mech." Ludwig: Goodbye, cannon-fodder ex-fiancé. I’m marrying your idol instead. —The whole universe was shocked. The Empire’s SSS-ranked First Marshal was marrying that good-for-nothing with E-rank physical and mental stats, who couldn’t even climb into a mech? Fake news, right? Then everyone discovered that Ludwig indeed couldn’t pilot a mech—but he could apparently rip them apart with his bare hands… Rumor has it he tore the Marshal’s mech to shreds and couldn’t pay for it, so… 【Ludwig’s Interstellar Mage Tower is now recruiting apprentices! Struggling with stats too low to pilot a mech? Worried about not having enough money for a high-quality mech? Afraid of being torn apart by Zerg on the battlefield? Fear not—become a mage apprentice! Mages reign supreme, and a bright future awaits you!】 ************** Imperial Military Command Announcement: This novel will enter VIP on Friday, December 21st, with a 10k-word update! Apprentices, keep up with the mage’s pace and advance on the path of knowledge! Anti-piracy measures are set at 60%—please understand! ************** 【Reading Guide】 1. The bottom doesn’t rely on cheats—he *is* the cheat. Through sheer effort, he ascends on his own! 2. Okay, fine, the top *might* have a tiny bit of that "nation’s idol" trope going on… 3. Stay firm on the CP! As for the cannon-fodder ex, per tradition, he’s our beloved taste-tester for dog food. Don’t rush—faces must be slapped *slowly* for maximum impact. Hurrying just dulls the pain! Give the poor scum more time to brace himself! 4. Some interstellar species settings are borrowed from *Star Trek* and *StarCraft* (with enthusiastic fangirling), while Zerg social structures are inspired by classic Hollywood blockbusters. All other details will be cited in the text (so don’t mute my author’s notes!). 5. Western fantasy elements follow the usual suspects—*Warcraft*, D&D, *Final Fantasy*, etc. 6. The author adores drama and tropes, stir-fried with dog food. Cook it up, and even the scum next door will cry from envy!
