Chapter Three Skills and Spells

When alex appears on the other side and trips falling to the floor ' wow is this all mine i never had something so luxueus'

Right now he's in a small corridor to his right and left are doors but up ahead he can see a loft style king size bed. Under it is a desk and a shell with 3 books on it."wow its a bed a big one too i've never had a bed before"

He jumps on the bed bouncin a few times before laying softy on the bed, tears start rolling down his face' my life is finally turning around'

He then gets up reluctantly and goes down to the desk and shelf, on the shell he sees the three books named, knight spell : mana meditation, knight skill : aura meditation and school classes and basics of getting around.

He starts by reading basic knight spell : mana meditation, ' First zones there are three main zones public everyone can go there as long as there apart of the school or have visitors badges, teacher zones these are only accessible by teachers or any higher rank, access can be granted by someone with at least teacher clearance. Last is restricted areas only accessible by few people.' 

Next there's the listed public areas, like parks, training areas for everything, a cafeteria and classes.' What counted his eyes next was classes and how they worked 'there's classes for just about every weapon I've heard of and many I haven't. There's even many classes for magic different staples and elements wow there's so many'

He also say that there was a week for people to chose these classes and get started 

He ended up putting the book down for now so he could read the spell and skill books starting with the spell. This was the one he was most interested in because depending on the element you could be very powerful.

He read through the book it told him the positions and moves he needed to perform and the breathing exercises as well. The last thing he read before going through with it was something very important 

'Depending on how long and well you go through the exercises for can alter what your starting mana is '

This struck Alex and instead of rushing it he memorized it as best he could and thought out how it would go. He also got more acquainted with his room and found the two doors were a bathroom and a training room.

When he thought he was ready he started the movements but when he did the first move that was when it struck him how hard it was. But despite the stress and pain it cause him he continued on

For Alex lasting as long as possible was the only thing but for him time was slowing down.

He lasted 5 hours from what a timer on his wrist said it turned out the suit had a little teachable screen on it that activated when he started 

Soon a message went of in his head 

// knight class spell learned : mana meditation,  you got $300 //

// spell : mana meditation first used for 5 hours //

// new sate : mana gained //

// mana is now 300/300 //

// soul awakened Duke, you got $500 // 

// you can now access your inner soul //

Alex didn't notice the messages popping up instead he was trying to catch his breath, strangely the room was speeding up this proses

When he did notice his mode plummeted "Duke that's only average at most and that's if i also get a Duke class body but knowing me it's likely going to be lower my mind is way stronger the body in fact when i tried to learn a martial arts style no matter what i did i couldn't do it"

Alex mopped "i'm going to die aren't i"

While mopping he looked through his soul and saw 5 petals blooming " wow that's really good for Duke"

When he looked at the colours he saw a red fiery one, a yellow one exuding sparks, blue one with ripped going through it, a green one with a calming aura around it and grey plane colour.

Four he recognised as fire, water, lightning and healing. Two primary elements and 2 secondary elements. When he saw then he also remembered something in the book

'Elements are mostly given at birth but if you're around them a lot the affinity can rise.'

This made him think of the ways people have torched him before half drowning, burning him and electrocuting him, the healing must be from the amount of times healing magic has been used on me.

This made him wonder what the grey colour was,' it wanted in the book or anything, I need to keep most of them a secret. I'll say the healing was my only element, if people found out I had two primary elements that could be manipulated.'

His hope was renewed again and now his focus was on the aura meditation ' i really hope i get at least Duke or i won't even be average and ill easily be bullied by everyone' 

So he started reading the knight skill : aura meditation book which went through many of the same things as the mana book. He memorized and got to doing the exercises. He figured he needed to go longer this time so he might make up for his class.

He started the exercises expecting extreme strane more than before but it was easter he could still feel strange on his body but it was way easier.

4 hours go passed and the strane only just starts getting as bad as the meditation

Right now his mind set is ' i know what it's going to be like now so i can last way longer'

10 hours have passed but he still struggles so much and his moves are getting sluggish….

 In the end he lasted 10 and a half hours, when done he just watches the messages role by 

// knight class skill learned : aura meditation, you got $300 //

// skill : aura meditation first used for 10.5 hours //

// new sate : aura gained //

// mana is now 630/630 //

// aura awakened demihuman, you got $4000 // 

// you can now access your inner body //
