Anton wondered what kind of lessons he would have gotten from the Supreme Wizard Numinor if he had accepted the offer of tutoring from the powerful supreme wizard but Numinor did take the offer back saying that since he was a bloodline mage, Numinor wasn’t informed enough to be Anton’s teacher.
That made him sure that Numinor’s offer wasn’t serious because even if he couldn’t teach bloodline magic, there were other areas of knowledge he could teach. In Numinor’s defense, he was probably an extremely busy wizard and wouldn’t have the time to teach an upstart like him. Even if the supreme wizard offered to teach others in his family like Anna, he would have declined since he didn’t trust wizards outside of the family. What if Anna was brainwashed or something? He wasn’t just acting paranoid since three High Wizards did attempt to enslave him.
All of these thoughts were being processed by Anton while they continued watching the episodes of the television series they had been watching. They were now watching Hercules since the episode of Star Trek they had been watching concluded a few minutes before. Anton thought of the fact that because of Star Trek, his family, and friends were now getting used to watching shows that had out-of-this-world and even strange concepts although in retrospect, them growing up in a fantasy world and being hounded by the undead probably made their minds more open compared typical people who grew up in a mundane world.
They had also seen the science-fiction movie Avatar and that meant that he could now let them see any kind of movie and they would not be shocked at all. Of course, his father and Nemina were the business leaders in the family and they would decide which film they would allow their customers to see. They should probably know more than him if a specific movie would be accepted readily by this world’s audience so he would let them handle which film they would show next in the theater that they had and would be establishing.
After Hercules, they all went to the dining hall to eat dinner and watch the show there. During dinner, Anders announced that there wouldn’t be any television show watching that night anymore since everyone should rest early. Antonia’s group planned to hold a private party somewhere and they invited everyone but the mages in the group declined since everyone was still excited about studying magic more and only Devon and Colin accepted.
In the meantime, everyone returned to the suite but Anton headed to where the horses were staying. He wanted to check if they were okay and when he arrived there, Maide and Bailey were very affectionate to him so he made sure to heal them of any ailments they might have acquired using his aura then provided them soma mana water which delighted the two horses to no end. He loved the horses since they had been with the family ever since the beginning. It didn’t matter to him that they were beginning to become magical animals. What mattered to him was that they had been with the family ever since he transmigrated to this world and they were part of the family, not simple farm animals.
When Anton returned to the suite he headed directly to his room and took a bath then he checked the videos that he uploaded on the internet. There were only three videos but they starting to get a lot of views and there were even some comments that were attempting to find him for business purposes. To avoid problems in the future, Anton decided to upload videos rarely maybe once a week or less. His main purpose in uploading those videos was just to read praises from viewers from Earth and nothing else.

The next day after breakfast, the situation was still the same. Anton entered his Diablo II system and spent the day leveling up his Paladin, practicing his item enchantments, practicing his spells, thinking of ways how to combine spells, and practicing his voice and guitar abilities. He didn’t even go outside his room during lunchtime and just ate the food that was in his inventory but he did make sure that everyone was aware that he would be doing that.
Anton’s paladin’s level climbed up to forty-three and soon he could reset it and choose the build that he wanted to have for the character up until he reached maximum level and once he did that, just like the necromancer, he would reset it again and choose the skills that would benefit him greatly in real life.
After his “wizard” practice for the day was over, outside his room he saw that everyone was gathered already but he disappointed them when he told them that he would spend the rest of the afternoon and evening recording the next film in two of the three magic recording item they had since it’s the cinema’s rest day.
When Selena learned of his plan, she asked if she could watch the recording together with her two friends since they had not seen The Two Towers before.
It was Anders who agreed of course and there was nothing Anton could do although it was not really a problem to have an audience during recording as long as any people in the room were quiet.
At the cinema, he had to wait for several minutes before his father, Selena, and her two friends Norma and Belue arrived. The three women were highly excited at the prospect of seeing the Two Towers ahead of everyone else on the ship except for the family, of course. Anders had to reiterate to the women that they would need to be silent the whole movie.
When everyone was ready, Anton started the recording session. While doing so, he expanded his Diablo II system and planned to play the game using the on-screen option so he could level up his paladin. He didn’t want to waste hours recording the film since he could increase his power while doing so.
At least they now knew that they could record the film in multiple magic recording items at the same time. He remembered ruefully his actions before recording the film on the items one at a time wasting a huge amount of time doing so but to be honest, it wasn’t a total waste since he used the time to level up his characters during those hours.
Anton didn’t mind that he had to use the on-screen option instead of following his promise to himself of entering the game virtually during the leveling-up process. There were instances that it was unavoidable and he did assign some time every day to practice his spells.
He was happy to note that he was able to level up twice during the whole recording session. More than likely, most Diablo II experienced players would scoff at how slow he leveled up even after using the option of increasing the difficulty of the game using the console command but in his defense, the gameplay within his system was truly different from the actual game. There was a need for him to make sure that he was familiar with even the tiniest of nuances of the mana structure of the spell.
The power was coursing through his body and his very being felt the tremendous energy of the mana. It wasn’t simply clicking on a button like in the game and that was the reason for the extreme slowness of his progress when it comes to leveling up his character because, to be honest, if the game was the same as in the computer, he would have probably reached the maximum level of every character in the game by then.
