Chapter 178 - Explanation And Tutorial (II) (1/2)

”The game is not just pure combat and pure PVP. All players can enjoy the game like if you want to become a blacksmith, you can become one. If you want to create food, there is that too. Want to invent machines and different items? The Inventor ex job is available too and many more. There is no limit to how many ways you can play the game so I am not worried about the leveling thing. I am not obsessed with getting the highest level anyway.”

”May I ask your level right now, Manato? I just became level 89 during the last battle against the boss so I am wondering what is your current level.”

”Level 100,” I immediately replied.

This caused the two who taught leveling is hard for a Versatile.

”Wha? Level 100?! Isn't that really high already? There are only a few people who hit level 100 and as a Versatile class, that is just absurd!”

”The level requirement spike is really high to break it through level 101. All I can say is that I needed more than what a normal player needed to break the barrier of level 100 and proceed to the next level. Also, with all things needed to be explored in the game, I don't think farming experience is hard at all.”

”You can say that because you like grinding. For those people who don't like grinding, that is just pure hell. But I am not a guy who cares about levels, I want to take everything leisurely and take what the game offers.”

Janus stopped and started thinking for a bit. Since he was in his own mode, I look back at Riko and decided to tell her about the ability to use magic. That way, I can at least give her a basic idea of this. Not only that, if I ever fail her to stop from the path where she was going to die, then get the ability to use magic might be my only emergency option for her to remain safe.

”Riko, since you are curious about how I gained the ability, then I will help you awaken yours. Since you have already played the game for quite a while, then I can help you with it. That is if you wanted to.”

”I can also use magic?!” Riko's eyes gleamed up.

”In theory yes. I have not done this and I am assuming this only so don't expect you would also gain the ability to use magic like me.”

”Even if it is just a theory, I will not lose anything if I try it. Help me awaken it!”

I grinned since I finally got Riko to agree. Although it was not on my plan to introduce her to this, I might be able to at least change a small fraction of the future that will happen. Besides, awakening them is not a problem because this is how someone should also awaken their abilities if ever they have difficulties achieving that on their own.

SNAP!

My forefinger lit up due to the mana I conjured and cover in my hands. It is a small amount but this amount is enough to start a mana circulation to a body that has yet to awaken its latent mana. With mana injected into someone, their mana will also trigger its awakening, helping them gain the ability to use magic.

”It's done.”

After the awakening process, I can sense that Riko's latent mana has finally awakened and is now flowing in her body. It was still weak but if she trains it, it won't be long before it is dense enough for her to properly use magic without a problem.

”Your mana has finally been released from its shackles and is now ready to be trained.”

”Are you sure, Manato? I don't think anything changed aside from the time you did something that caused a tingling sensation.”

”Yes. Your body has already been awakened. You still haven't properly controlled your mana yet that is why you still can't feel it and you still think nothing happened. You also can't use magic yet since your mana is still unstable. Try to meditate and let the mana flow into your body and make it like it is part of your body since you were born.”

”I don't really get it but I think I needed to train like a monk or something?”

”No, not exactly. You only needed to meditate and try to keep the mana in control. If you don't...”

”If I don't...? Gulp...”

”If you don't train... then nothing will happen. You can't use your magic and anything fancy like how I do. Nothing at all. What... are you expecting something else?”
