I was walking through the forest (Relias did not know that the forest he was in was the forest known as the Forest of Eden, a forest blessed by the Gods and only those who they deem worthy will enter)
I was seriously wondering if this was the starter forest since I haven't seen a single monster yet...am I that ugly
*sniffle*I thought I looked normal *sniffle* OK back to finding a nice place to train.
As I was walking I came in a serene clearing, there were rocks positioned similarly to the stonehenge from my world but oddly enough they were all blue not that but the most odd thing was that I felt like this is the place that I can train in because I felt at peace which itself is a surprise.
I got to the middle and decided to make up my thoughts about my current training regime which in would at most be finished in a month because I spread it over 4 weeks of time with rests during the night time and I would start training at the break of dawn and finish approximately around midnight.
My body can operate on six hours of sleep people its not that amazing compared to the fact that my little brother somehow sleeps for 2 hours and is able to stay awake for 10 days, NOW that is unnatural.
My training regime was something along the lines of this
Week 1- Meditation and Trying to sense mana (Magic-ish stuff
Week 2- If mana sensing was complete then trying to form mana (Complete magic stuff)
Week 3- Spartan Expir- I mean hell training to get my body to a monstrous state hehe (Physical-ish)
Week 4- If Spartan Expir-*cough* Training was successful than to further push my body to its limit (Complete Physical)
Now you think its weird that I want train my body as well but lemme tell you the from all the web novels, manga, and fan-fic's I have read all mage's have weak bodies because they focus to much on their magic too much and thus they are completely weak in a complete physical fight...now why else would I train my body you ask? Why I am glad you asked MVAHAHAHAHA
What would I do if I am challenged to a duel? A MAN MUST PROTECT HIS HONOR, young padawan!!!
Now back to reality I decided to try meditation I mean I am truly curious as to how it works
So I sat down close my eyes and let my thoughts scatter, at first it was pretty difficult because I would think of something simple like 'is it working?', but after 10 minutes or so I was in complete meditative state.
..
..
..
I was like that for a few hours and in those few hours I accomplished a lot of my goals!
First I felt mana and saw it and for some reason it looked like a silvery silky piece of cloth!
And when my incredulous mind imagine a ball (don't ask me why his mind just works like that) to my surprise it actually worked and a silver ball appeared in my field of vision.
When I opened my eyes I saw that I had notifications just like that of a MMORPG and I clicked on them to see what I had gained during my time meditating because, I had turned off notification during my time training, it was a gamble to see whether or not this "status" magic that the god of magic granted to all inhabitants of this world was very alike to a VRMMO status and stuff I mean I even had a inventory which was limitless, it was pretty amazing...

I was astounded...

the.
time.
spent.
meditating.
A FUCKING WEEK
Holy shit! It didn't even feel like a week but like 2 seconds and then...
*GRRRURURUR*
My stomach become a growling beast and because of that I ran back towards the Adventurers Guild to eat something and by ran I mean sprinted like a bloody bullet...
-A FEW MINUTES LATER-
Oh god this tastes GREAT...Yes I am a food maniac as well as game maniac, WHY you ask? BECAUSE FOOD IS HEAVEN!!! It is the greatest creation of mankind!
I had managed to swin- I mean borrow a few pieces of gold (not a few but a lot) from the priest before they kicked me out
hehe so I was able to buy the food
'I should really ask about the skill ranking and stuff *eat eat eat* but this food DEAR GOD this food!!! It tastes like heaven'
And thus because of the food Relias had forgotten to ask about the skill ranking system
-A FEW MINUTES AND A LOT OF RUNNING LATER-
Now I was back at magical blue clearing, that's what I have decided to call it! The Magical Clearing of Magicalness!
I decided for my second week of training that instead of trying to blindly make magic happen I would thoroughly scour and eat up the volume of ??? that Arcon oh so nicely gave me...
-1 WEEK LATER-
In the Forest of Eden if one were nearby or close to it they would suddenly feel a large explosion of pure mana but this explosion was so large and so powerful that it would alert every archmage and all others that a powerful magician was born this day...
