Chapter 81 1 - INF
A gentle breeze blew across the face of a young man.
Inside the Mighty Mage Academy, located in the Great Magician Kingdom, he walked alone on the busy street.
Students dressed in light white robes, which looked dazzling because of the high-grade materials that were used to create it, walked with their respective groups, chatting with each other.
A bright smile hung on their face, as the pride of being a mage reflected in their face.
While walking, the student\'s eyes fell on the young man.
The young man dressed in a monotonous white robe looked pale in comparison to the gorgeous mage robe of other students.
Obviously, he wasn\'t a mage. Or, he wasn\'t considered a mage.
His appearance even made the low-talented students have some pride on their faces since the figure in front of them was much worse than them.
Students laughed softly, looking at the figure while ridiculing him.
"Look, it\'s Allen! Today also, he is a Tier 0 mage."
"Really?! He has been in this academy for 3 years, and he is still a Tier 0 mage!"
"I feel bad for him, his father is a Tier 6, Warrior. Despite being the son of a talented man, he is trash..."
"Let alone his father, his mother is also a Tier 6 Archer. Even being the son of two talented individuals, he\'s trash!"
"Well, I have heard that, if he remains Tier-0 mage for two more weeks, he will get kicked out from the academy."
"Not only that, to remain here, he has to become Tier 3 mage in two months, or else he wouldn\'t be able to take part in Mage Tournament, which will result in being restricted."
"Tier 3 mage in two months, don\'t joke. I could guarantee that it will take more than 10 years for him to even take a step in tier 1."
"Who knows, if his luck hit jackpot, he would directly become a Tier 3 mage."
"Haha, that was a funny joke. I\'d rather believe a magic weapon falling from the sky than expect him to become Tier 3 mage in two months."
The laughter of students filled the air of the road. Hearing their sarcastic words, Allen couldn\'t help but sneer.
It would have been normal for him to be untalented if he was normal.
But Allen is a transmigrator. He transmigrated to this world three years ago, when the original Allen was a freshman in this academy.
He tried his best to become a mage. He even thought that he would have a bright future like those protagonists, he read in novels and mangas.
Alas, life didn\'t go as he wanted.
He didn\'t even understand how to cast spells let alone control his mana.
Allen didn\'t have any talent in magic. He couldn\'t even control his mana, let alone cast a spell.
Accumulating magic power was already a huge deal for him, but using magical power to form magic was a task on a different level.
Naturally, Allen who didn\'t even know a thing about magic couldn\'t become a mage.
It took two years for him to build his understanding of mana, spells, and magic. After that, he could finally cast magic.
But, he had to start from Tier 0, the very beginning of the mage which everyone starts from. It only took one month or two months for people to break through Tier 0 to Tier 1.
Geniuses don\'t need more than a week.
But it had been 1 year and still, Allen is a Tier 0 mage. In the history of humankind, no other mage has been in Tier 0 for more than 3 months. And here, Allen has broken through world record by a huge margin, which couldn\'t be called an honor.
Like always, with an emotionless face, Allen ignoring the words of other students walked toward the back of the academy, where a huge ground is located.
This ground isn\'t used by many people, since nobody wants to waste their time coming here when they have a training ground right in the Academy.
For one year, Allen came here to practice his magic spell. A Tier 0 spell \'Spark\'.
Spark, like its name, suggested, Allen could only produce a small fire spark that couldn\'t even be used to light a cigarette.
But he did not give up. Like one of the students said, Allen, came here to practice his spell always, hoping to break through to Tier 1.
If he could break through to Tier 1, his magic spell \'Spark\' would also become Tier 1, generating a big spark. But, even with that, he could only produce a spark that can\'t be used in battle.
But, if he could breakthrough, he can finally choose an attribute.
Choosing attribute means, he can become a mage of distinct attributes, like Fire mage, Water mage, Wind mage, etc.
Even though he could get the luxury of choosing, he can\'t choose those attributes beyond his compatibility. But, after choosing an attribute, his strength will increase drastically.
"Let\'s try again today."
While sighing, Allen reached the back of the Academy, where a huge ground was situated. Trees covered the ground, but not a single life was visible on the ground. Only sands and dust could be seen.
No one knows why the ground couldn\'t bear life, it has become a mystery and a wonder of the Academy.
Allen closes his eye slowly and felt the energy inside his body. Little by little, he drew the mana inside his body, until it reached his finger from the vein.
*Click*
As he snapped his finger, a spark generated. But, expecting that, nothing else happened, making Allen slightly depressed.
He again clicked his finger together, but nothing more than a tiny spark generated. He thought, that he could finally break through Tier 0.
But his expectation again broke in the face of reality.
"Haah. It has been three years, but I am still very weak. Is this my fate, am I going to be weak for the rest of my life!"
Allen frowned, squeezing these words out of his mouth.
Anger, frustration, depression all these emotions covered his heart. He could hear the ridicule of the students inside his ear. He could hear them calling him weak.
But they were right.
The current him could not even master a Tier 0 spell.
Unreconciled!
Very Unreconciled!
[Ding! The Magical System has awakened! You can now start your journey towards becoming a mage.]
[Ding! Ding! Error ##$$&@*#&$*! An unknown bug has failed the system. Error 101 has occurred!]
[Retreating the system interface, Error, Bug 2002 has occurred. Dispatching anti-bug and anti-error...]
[Failed... System failed... Bug 2002, Error 101, has occurred...]
....
[Ding! All the error and bug has been fixed... Status Window Updated]
"System?...The Magical System?"
Allen whispered. He could hear the ringing sound reverberating inside his ear, causing him slight pain.
Different emotions emitted from his face. Overjoy, fear, anger... But he suppressed them all.
He was an otaku, in his previous life, so he understood the importance and function of the system.
Soon after.
A big translucent black holographic window with white silver words appeared right in front of his eyes.
[Allen Kin]
[Strength: 10]
[Agility: 5]
[Stamina: 6]
[Mana: INF]
[Skill(s): (Spark - 1)]
The status interface brought confusion to him rather than relief.
What the hell! Why is my mana Inf... Wait wait... does that mean my mana is infinite?!
Allen couldn\'t comprehend the meaning of INF on his mana stats. It could be infinite, or maybe the bug, that system has fixed but forget to fix the numbers? It is still early to come to a conclusion.
Allen couldn\'t hold the excitement. He was full of energy, mysterious energy has filled his body.
He could feel the burst of energy inside his body. This only means one thing...
"I have broken through Tier 1!!!"
Allen literally jumped around the ground with a bright smile on his face. He couldn\'t hold the happiness inside his heart.
Soon after, the spark skill also broke through Tier 1.
"Spark! Spark! Spark!"
Allen consecutively cast spark without taking a break. Unlike previously, the spark generated from his palm was bigger and hotter.
But, there was still one problem. He didn\'t know if he had infinite mana like it was written on the window.
Spark is a low-tier skill, even after casting thousand of times, Allen couldn\'t feel exhausted, even though he was only Tier 0.
But now he is Tier 1, his mana would naturally increase, so he didn\'t have any basis to claim that he had an unlimited amount of mana.
There was only one thing he could do now...
"Let\'s learn more spells!"
Inside the Library filled with a huge amount of books of spells, theories, and other magic-related things, Allen flipped the pages of the book with the name \'Telekinesis\'.
Telekinesis is a space-type spell, that consumes a huge amount of mana peruse.
The mana it consumes is so vast that even Tier 3 mage can\'t manage to use this spell for more than 1 hour continuously. Similarly, only mages with Tier 8, and those mages who have a vast amount of mana from the beginning could dare to use space-type magic casually.
[Ding! Spell - Telekinesis learned]
[Current Level: 1 (Tiny bit of understanding)]
