Chapter 99: Basics of Void [4]
***
Amon walked over to the room control wall and tapped the panel.
A number of switches and adjustable bars emerged, displaying themselves to him.
Without doing anything, his gaze first wandered off to the anonymity switch at the top left corner.
Not hesitating, he turned on the white switch.
Instantly he heard a defusing sound in the whole room.
All the data records, mana trackers, and cameras had turned off now.
There was a bar for the mana density.
It had numbers from 1 to 10, displayed from the bottom to the highest.
Currently, the room was at 1 mana density.
This meant that a Tier 1 Armentist or 1st Order Clovist would be normal in this density of
mana.
For Amon, who was now a 2nd leaf clovist, it was quite low.
If he adjusted the mana density to 2.5, then that would be high density for him.
It was a good number for practicing and also absorbing mana to train your breathing and release.
However, if he went any higher then he would start to suffocate.
A number like 3 wasn't made for him.
So, he adjusted the density to three.
Immediately, he felt a certain pressure descend upon the room.
It wasn't something that made you feel uncomfortable though.
It felt refreshing.
As if his whole body was invigorated and brimming with energy.
The mana pores in his body opened up, eager to absorb the mana in the atmosphere.
For someone of his talent, training in this density for 2 months without anything special was enough to rank him up.
Of course, he wasn't going to do that.
He then moved to the training dummies and ordered 5 of them with a strength level of 2.5.
The numbers on this bar meant the same as the density numbers.
As soon as he pressed his confirmation, 5 dummies emerged from the floor as the tiles slid
away.
Each of them had a mana core embedded in their heads, the rank respective to the one he had selected.
Each core had a different color to it, representing the different elements of each dummy.
If Amon wanted, he could enable the fight feature of these dummies.
That feature would enable them to fight him based on the different records that had ever been recorded in these rooms.
The mana and elements the dummies used originated from the core embedded in their heads.
Heading back from the panels to the middle of the ground, Amon looked at Zephyra.
She was sitting on her chair waiting for him to finish.
She stood up and walked to a spot opposite to where he was standing.
[Alright. Let's begin.] She spoke for the first time.
He nodded.
[Try to channel your mana and use the element like you usually do.]
Nodding, he started to channel his ma-
[Oh, but beware. It isn't easy.] She smiled bewitchingly.
Something that Amon couldn't see because of what was happening to him.
His whole body...
It was on fire as soon as he channeled the mana onto the element.
His heart felt as if it was being torn apart.
As if molten lava was being poured onto it.
His head became lightheaded as a throbbing pain assaulted his mind.
Purple glowing cracks spread on his face and arms as if his whole body was going to crumble at any second.
His eyes became bloodshot as a searing pain assaulted them.
He fell to the ground, taking deep breaths, his sanity teetering at the edges of going insane.
Someone kept ripping apart his body.
A magmatic fire was burning his soul into ashes.
He clutched his head to try to let it go, trying to rip apart his hair to make it stop.
Fortunately, he heard a flick sound in the air.
Instantly all the pain and cracks faded away.
It was as if they were never there.
He folded up on the ground, his breath coming out in shallow and quick gasps.
His eyes were still bloodshot and his hands were still clutching his head.
The expression on his face was as if his mind was still replaying that feeling.
Silence ensued in the room before Amon finally calmed down.
With a little stumbling, he finally stood up, looking at Zephyra who was smiling.
'She was definitely enjoying this...' He gritted his teeth.
[So how was the feeling?]
'Again...'
[Hmm?]
'I'll go through it again if I can get stronger..' He repeated his words.
Her gaze widened a little, not expecting this kind of answer.
[Did you not feel what happened?]
'I did.'
[....]
'.....'
[..And you are still willing to do it again?]
He nodded.
She disappeared from her spot and appeared before him, grabbing his face.
She observed his face and eyes, looking deep into them with her amethyst ones.
However, his expression remained stoic even when she was so close.
[...There's no sign of madness or insanity. That's good. It's an impressive feat that you even
lasted this long.]
She concluded and appeared back at her previous spot.
'So?' He tilted his head.
[In any case, we are not doing that again. It was just to show how dangerous and unstable the
Void element is. It's not to be used like the other elements.]
Amon nodded, finding himself to agree with her statement.
If it was him from back then on the first day in this world.
He would have undoubtedly died and fallen mad to this feeling.
Never...
Never did he want someone to experience what he had just done.
As if his body was being burnt and torn apart alive...
It was a horrifying experience.
And as if to confirm his statement, Zephyra said in a grave tone.
[You were like that with just 5 seconds of usage. Do that again for a half minute, and you will
fall insane. 1 minute, and you are dead.]
She was settling in the consequences of his element in his mind.
He nodded.
He understood how dangerous the element was now.
It wasn't that didn't expect it.
He had seen Michael get close to death several times in the novel.
All because of how much raw power the Sun element held.
While there wasn't the consequence of falling insane, the chances of getting your body
destroyed were much higher.
His gaze focused back on Zephyra who raised a finger.
[Now...let's learn the correct way to use the element.] She smiled charmingly
