Chapter 4: Adventuring Through The Endless Snow Fields (1/2)

[Day 3]

Because I am literally immune to cold and I can absorb ice to regain some energy (limitedly, I still need to eat though), I just kept walking around for hours.

Just an endless sea of snow… whiteness everywhere.

And this snowstorm never stops.

Hello? Anyone there?

Am I really just going to live for eternity in here?

Well, at least throw me some rabbits to eat!

I am beginning to get hungry already.

Even though I ate a whole ass rabbit yesterday.

With fur and all, even the bones… and the mana core.

Talking about the Mana Core, after what I discovered yesterday, I began to concentrate on it and tried to use mana.

It was weird and it was incredibly hard to control.

It was like trying to pull out water from a pool with your bare hands…

Maybe that is not a good comparison, I am terrible at these things after all.

But I have been concentrating on using it while walking around this desolate snowstorm.

And somehow I am managing, I think.

I can analyze a lot of things, except time, I guess.

So I analyzed my own mana and discovered that I can cheat it and manage to manipulate my own mana through analysis a bit better.

Thanks, System, you are really the almighty cheat!

I had analyzed the Rank and it said that each Rank had several stages and that you need to use Mana all around your body while meditating and blah, blah, blah to use it properly and become stronger.

I see…

What a pain.

I have no time to meditate!

I want to find something else than just snow, you know.

So I have been walking all this time, I barely feel tired, but I am beginning to get incredibly hungry now.

I think that because of all those calories I had stockpiled that I did not get tired…

Good thing I ate the fur too.

But now that I have digested most stuff (and went to the bathroom off-camera!), I am getting hungry once more.

And as I walked seeking a meal, I slowly nourished myself with my Mana, which was slowly getting lower and lower, so I stopped halfway through.

I wanted to use my super overpowered magic as well, but when I tried to activate it through the System, the only thing I got was an explosion of ice that covered me on it…

I cannot control it.

Why you may wonder?

Because I was stupid enough to ask for overpowered magic while being a novice on it!

And also, I think activating it already costs almost all of my mana!

What?

What do you mean I cannot even use my super overpowered cheat ability without blowing it all away?

What is the point of having it if I cannot use it?!

…At least I have an ice breath.

That's… kind of works.

But it is a very small breath, like icy winds that I can release from my icy lungs, I don't think it has a range of over one meter, at most, and it also drains mana.

But it is better than nothing, my friend.

Oh right, the Mana Core Ranks.

Whatever kind of cultivation world this is, Mana Cores have ranks, and I got them all through Analyzing the analyzed info over and over again like a maniac.

So here they are:

Rank 1, Mana Core Awakening Realm

Rank 2, Mana Core Nourishment Realm

Rank 3, Mana Core Expansion Realm

Rank 4, Mana Core Refining Realm

Rank 5, Mana Core Quality Enhancement Realm

Rank 6, Mana Core Veins and Soul Veins Awakening Realm

Rank 7, Mana Core Divine Aura Awakening Realm

Rank 8, Mana Core and Soul Fusion Realm

Rank 9, Mana Soul and Divine Aura Fusion Realm

Rank 10, Divine Mana Soul Creation Realm

Yep, there are ten realms!

Damn, and I am at the bottom of it all, tough life.
