When Jace regains his vision, he finds himself back on his bed. "Ding, Successfully learned Exploding Hex (level low) Hex spell library unlocked."
Jace then checks his watch to see he was in the dark room for only 10 minutes. To Jace it feels like it has been 2 hours.
Jace considers for a moment then opens up his status to discover his mana has gone down 10 points and is now at 90/100. Jace tries to connect mana to hexmancing again to see if he could learn more hexs, completely forgetting about the new spell library but "Ding, user has already connected mana to hexmancing and no more insight can be given" the robotic voice says unemotionally.
"Well that didn't work" mulls Jace, eating his chips.Then he starts thinking he will need a weapon for the coming invasion."I have a high dexterity stat and low strength, so heavy weapons are out. I will need to decide if I want to use a gun, bow, or knives"
After he finishes his chips, he again feels the mana and thinks about creating a curse and hears the "Ding, connected mana to cursemancing giving insight" as his vision is fading again.
On another planet billions of light years away, inside a massive castle in the throne room, a figure of black fog sits in the shape of a human.
A pitch black, 2 legged demon with 3 horns runs in and immediately bows and precedes to say, "Sire, plans on invading the new planet have been pushed back since the gods interfered. We have also found that the gods have given some of the inhabitants some of their power."What are your orders?" "Continue on as planned, this is nothing we haven't dealt with before" growls the figure.

"I must have 'the piece' that is there, how are the other planets coming?" "They are going as planned, sire" responds the demon. "Good"! "I will relay your orders sire, " and the 3 horned demon bows and runs out.
The figure then gets up from his throne and walks over to the side of the room. He holds up his hand, which shows a glowing red symbol, and points toward a brick in the wall. A passage opens up and reveals a spiral staircase going down.
The figure walks down the steps and the entrance closes. Reaching the bottom he comes to a room with walls of bookshelves and half a stone tablet with symbols covering one side.
It is floating in the air and is in the middle of the room. With a desk in front of it, a mess of papers and books cover it. On the papers there are 2 different types of symbols and on the books, some match the symbols on the tablet. The figure sits picking up a pen and starts to observe the tablet, while writing and comparing.
Back on earth, Jace is sitting on his bed while his mind once again is in the dark room. This time the silhouette is chanting "cureka va fuotega" while looking at a shining white silhouette that looks like a scarecrow.
After the chant is finished a circle of black symbols appear over the head of the white scarecrow. The silhouette then starts to repeat itself after 5 seconds, Jace has been observing for a long time and still can't figure out where to push his mana. Then a few minutes later, when he realizes that the silhouettes voice sounds different than just normal chanting, he stands up and faces the white silhouette a couple feet in front of him.
While putting mana in his voice, he chants "cureka va fuotega" which to Jace's surprise takes 45 seconds to say. "I really thought that this would be easier, I am talking in slow motion," thinks Jace as he finishes. A black circle of symbols appear over the white silhouette in front of him and he has a second to appreciate his work before his vision again goes dark.
