Chapter 74 – Fit check
Third Person’s POV (12 yrs. and 8 months old)
“I think I remember talking about what type of class I took on our first day of getting to know the other four.” said Ken looking at the status window. White appeared beside him, and in this subconscious, both light and dark are of equal balance.
Ken is currently standing on the line that divided the two colors, he is wearing his battle armor clothing and is pondering on what to do. The colors represent Ken’s two sides, as to how he is able to make balance, we never know.
The windows that appeared before Ken was just plain white, showcasing numbers and words, and a black border, but that didn’t bother Ken that much. Although the scenery before him of peace and quiet of both light and dark does bother him a bit.
He willed his subconscious to turn the white side as the top and the black at the bottom and the floor he is currently standing.
“Right.” replied White.
“I think I should add it.” -Ken-
“Go ahead.” -White-
Ken manually widened the spaced between ‘job’ and ‘level’ and touched the space for a blinking cursor to appear, a transparent keyboard appeared, and he typed in ‘Class: Battle Mage’, and hit ‘enter’ to update the window, the status window reappeared.

“It’s sad to think that I’ll just have to train every day to raise my stats.” said Ken looking at his status window.
“Well we can’t have you going overpowered due to your stats raising every level now can we.” replied White.
“Agreed, and on second thoughts, I have so many spells to use, and many more to make, my other abilities are useful as well, not to mention the talent tree.” said Ken and opened the talent tree window.
Still with the same design. He touched each leaf to show the name and description of each talent.
[ Talent Tree.

2. Flash Reflex: able to respond to stimulus in nanoseconds.

“Although I haven’t found the definition of my talent 4 and 5, I have a rough idea on what they are.” Ken manually placed to the left side the talent tree window leaving it open while the name and descriptions closed itself, leaving an outline of a tree .
“Open Skills/ Spells Window.” He said.
[ Skills/ Spells.
-Primary Passives-
1. Elemental Mastery: spells do not have delays and are casted immediately, thus spell damage, structure and effects depends on the imagination and mana input of the user.
2. Arcane Mastery: able to utilize arcane magic to the fullest, thus empowering your arcane spells by 100%, increased in both damage and effectiveness.
3. Concept of Re-creativity: allows the user to create spells up to a cap of ten on each spell categorization, as such spell/ skill damage starts at 300 at level zero, increases by 50 on every level.
Attack/ Magic power increases spell/ skill damage by 50%, can be capped at 100% if the spell/ skill is channeled or charged.
Note: concept of defense is applied, or in simpler terms, spells are less effective if the opponent has higher armor, also applies in magic. ]
“I really like what I have one with this.” -Ken-
“You have so many advantages that it’s stupid, I really want to hit you on the head.” said White irritatedly.
“Hehe.” Ken scratched the back of his head. “I’m sorry.”
“Just continue with what you are doing.” replied White.
“Okay, next, my Elemental Spells are… Here.” Ken said, and swiped to the fire spells page.

“You still lack four fire spells, haven’t found any inspiration yet?” said White.
“I’m saving the slots for more effective spells in the future and besides, fire is such a delight to play with, kidding~.
Oh and I noticed this is quite different from when I open it on my conscious state” replied Ken for the passive skills are not situated on the small circles of the triangle covered by a circle.

“You know, I don’t really understand the word ‘arcane’, I just named it like this.” said Ken.
“I know.” replied White. Ken abruptly turned to him.
“What?! You knew?! Why didn’t you say anything?!” said Ken.
“Apart from you know what kind of effects you want your spells to execute, you’re already executing arcane spells without understanding its fundamentals, so it’s still okay.” said White. Ken whined while swiping to the light moon spells.

“This one too, I’m stuck with one spell -except for the death moon form-, and I cannot create more spells for this one, did you tamper with it?” Ken asked.
“No, it is only now that I’ve known of this too, but you could only have six spell slots for moon spells, that I know didn’t change.” replied White. The two pondered on the matter, meanwhile on the outside.
-On the garden of flower where everyone is waiting for Ken-
Allen woke up from his trance, about 27 minutes later. “It’s starting.” He said to no one in particular. Flin who heard him talk glanced at him confused, he felt the surroundings stir with energy.
At the same time he looked at the retreating vines and the pillow of straw covered in big green leaves flew to the air and disappeared, at the same time a white magic circle the color of white with a radius of 500 meters appeared below Ken’s sleeping form.
As well as all ten other magic circles representing the different elements he always uses appeared in mid-air encircling Ken. Five miniature magic circles the color of white appeared creating an inner encirclement.
Flin stared in awe, a bright flash occurred as he covered his face with his hands.
-Back in Ken’s subconscious-
“Wait, I think I’m forgetting something.” said Ken, and swiped the window of dark moon spells to the left.
