Infinite Mana in the Mage Academy

Chapter 49 I Got Infinite Mana



(Whole New Plot)

****************

It was a special day for me. In front of a small table, there was chicken meat and other food stacked. Since I live alone, all of these are prepared by myself.

Today, I was awakened. I got indescribable energy running through my mind. My anticipation is on one thing.

[Your status window will be updated in (00:01:59)]

In only 2 minutes, I can see what my stats are.

This world turned into hell when a dungeon suddenly appeared. Monsters exited the dungeon and conquered many human lands.

Small dungeons were different. Monsters couldn't leave small dungeon but they could leave when the event called monster outbreak occurs. Chaos and destruction filled the whole world, and I know that event ended barely 5 years ago.

Humans have conquered 20% of the total land and hundreds of millions of people live. Awakened people who had great power emerged and clear the dungeon daily.

These people found skill books from the monster corpses and the whole human world changed. Hunters are rising daily and they all have immense power. But, still human hasn't been able to destroy humans and recover all the lands.

"Huh?"

My eyes widen to see the infinite signs in the mana bar.

My body trembled, and I rubbed my eyes weather to check if I was imagining things.

But the sign was still there.

"Is my mana infinite?"

This first question popped into my mind.

Awakened hunters could either be awakened naturally or by absorbing skill books. Since I am an orphan and poor, artificial awakening is something I can't achieve, but my luck was great since I awakened naturally.

I decided to just check my mana by casting skill.

"Electric Ball." Since it is a natural awakening, my skill is random. But I didn't expect to gain D-rank skills from the start.

[Eletric Ball: Create a ball of electricity that zap the enemy on contact and gives continuous damage.]

*****

I left my house which was a small run-down building. There isn't any garden nor any good facility. Well, this cheap house is something I can afford. I do manual labor for living.

After walking many steps, I came across a ground which was filled with grass. The ground size was small, so no one built a house here. It is used by some local hunters to train. There weren't many people here.

I looked up and saw a bright moon illuminating the world. The stars beside the moon twinkled. The pollution has decreased tremendously, so seeing stars in the sky became normal. Five years ago, stars were barely visible, and now groups of them beautifully twinkle in the sky.

Shaking my head, I looked in front. I took a deep breath and raised my hands.

"Electric Ball"

I cast it softly so as not to disturb others.

A blue ball the size of a football hovered in my hands. Sparks were emitting from the ball that brighten the surroundings and it looked dangerous. I locked my eyes on the grass and manipulate the electric ball.

With a force, the electric ball hit the grass. Electric sparks covered the grass and the ground was covered in blue light.

There weren't any bugs there, so I didn't get to see its effect on living creatures. The ground stopped illuminating after some minutes.

I wanted to cast more, but seeing its effect, I held the urge. If I continuously use it, the ground will lighten and the neighbors will complain. Everybody in this world could only rest in their sleep. And I know better how much important sleep is.

Since I was enthusiastic to check my skill, I forgot it was night. Well since I came here, I decided to use it once. I left the ground and returned to my house.

I jumped on the bed and lay while grinning. I was too excited to fall asleep. But somehow, I fell into a deep slumber.

********

Next day-

As the sun came into the horizon, I woke up. Freshening up by washing my face and brushing my teeth, I rushed to the ground.

Fortunately, the ground was in a place where people rarely pass by. And today, there weren't that hunters. Maybe, due to being early. I don't know, I rarely come here.

Sometimes, I come here to see how hunters train, and how amazing their power is. And today, I came here to test my own powers. The feeling is kinda unable to describe in words.

I stand where I was standing yesterday.

"Electric Ball"

I cast it, and a ball full of electricity spitting electric sparks hovered in my palm. The electric ball was fired at the ground, and the ground lit in blue.

Only a small area was affected and since it was bright, one could hardly see the blue electricity on the ground. But, I can't leave it like this, if someone accidentally steps, they will get zapped with electricity.

I wasn't feeling tired, since it was my first cast of the day. I again cast the skill.

"Electric Ball... Electric Ball... Electric Ball"

With each cast, my breathing became rough. It wasn't due to exhaustion, instead, I was getting excited the more spell I cast.

Ten times, fifteen times, Thirty Times, Fifty Times, I couldn't believe it as I cast it repeatedly.

From my knowledge and inquiry from hunters, I knew every hunter starts with F-rank. So, the mana they have is limited, and one could barely cast D-rank skill two times. And they need to rest for an hour to refill their mana.

And I had 25 times more mana than them.

I continued to cast the skill.

10 times, 20 times, my mana surpassed the barrier of D-rank hunter. A D-rank hunter can cast a D-rank skill 20 times.

And C-rank can cast D-rank skill 100 times. B-rank 1000 and-rank 10,000. S-ranks are still unknown since I live in a remote area where there is barely any C-rank here.

A-rank would be god here, let alone an S-rank hunter.

But, the dungeon here is only F, E, and D-rank. The strongest dungeon is a C-rank dungeon, which a party of C-rank hunters can clear daily.

After casting my skill more than hundreds of times, I decided to stop. An hour has passed already. I didn't want to give my time just casting skills in the grassland. I looked at the damage I caused. Well, nothing eyes-catching damage was caused, since it was electricity it didn't affect grasses much. Well, I don't know if it will work on monsters, but I would have to give it a try. Don't back down until you try it once.

After smiling drily, I returned to my house.

"Let's go and become a hunter."

I formed a fist. With determined eyes, I rush from my house. Of course, I wore neat clothes and locked my door properly. Maybe, the world has changed, but robbery, theft, and burglary still exist.

I don't want my situation to be like my neighbor whose house was robbed clean. He and his wife cried for hours, and our neighborhood including me comforted them and supported them.

Well, people here are also kind even if the world is cruel. Not all are cold-blooded and cruel, there are many people who still support each other.

I smiled slightly thinking that.

I left the building and walked on the hustling and bustling street. Many people who work were walking with serious expressions. Not all people were happy. Since the work in this world had become a more physical and less software-related thing.

Only those who can farm, who can work in industry, who can do manual labor, etc are highly sought. Skills and professions like engineering aren't taught in college now. Everyone learns experience of others, and engineers teach other people for free while working.

Schools and colleges are rarely found. There is not much education. As long as you awaken, you become a hunter. The government pressured you even if you decided not to become one. The average age of awakening is 12 years old. Yeah, from kids, they awakened skill.

I shook my head and forget all the unrequired details. I looked here and there, large buildings were everywhere. Small buildings are rare, and only around 10 to 20 could be found all over the city. Buildings exceeding the 10th floor are common since many people could live in one building. Space is tight so a solution like this is important.

I found many hunters walking in the street along with normal people. They were wearing armors and were carrying their weapons. Well, there aren't any classes, so they just dress whatever they like.

After walking for 30 minutes, I came across a huge building. "Government Huter Association" was written on a big board and hung on the middle floor of the building.

I took a long breath and calm down my nerves. With timid steps, I walked inside the building. The moment I entered the building, my eyes widened.
