Warrior of Calamity: Mage initialization

He always thought he would live an ordinary life – study, work, and video games. He always dreamed of more. Be careful what you wish for. Now, magic rules everything in his life, and every day could be his last. Monsters kill without warning, the Corruption awakens power or destroys its bearers and the Citadel forgives no weakness. Here, a newcomer earns experience points, levels up their magic, and faces dangerous trials that test not only strength but also character. To survive, he must develop his magical skills, battle deadly creatures, and uncover the secrets of the ancient Orders. Can an ordinary person rise to the level of a true mage and find their place in this world – or will magic consume him first?
