For my love I dedicated my life on researching the Runic language. It leads me to the Runic Temple where a small independent city is located. The city is strange as all kinds of races can be seen. Humans, Dwarves, Elves, Orcs and Demons live peacefully. Their leader is also a demon called Lady Waterlake, a water demon class at the Legendary tier. She helped me so much in my research about the runic language. Sadly she do not know how to revive the dead except for those cults that has a class of necromancy who revive people as undead. - Mira Research Book #4
----------------------------------------
Ernesh trained at the spacial room for 2 and a half days before stepping out. He can't use all the 4 days since he still need to go home at before night. After he fell unconscious completing the [Muscle Connection Tunnel] for 12 hours he woke up in need of food. Luckily he is surrounded by water and refreshed his body before stepping out and hunt some game.
Returning at the spacial room is very simple. Another magic circle is drawn from the inside and outside. The magic circle has a unique symbol only Ernesh know. As long as one can copy the magic circle drawn inside the spacial room one can enter it anywhere atleast 1 km away. Ernesh decided to keep everything to himself since he knows what greed can do to invite trouble. If it were the Ernesh before unlocking the memory he would have reported it to the clan the first time he discover the secret place.
Going back to the spacial room he let his body stable for a while at the 19g gravity before doing some basic training. He decided to check his skill tommorrow as it's getting late in the real time. 100 push-ups, sit-ups, curl-ups, punches and kicks. Lastly he tested the [Muscle Connection Tunnel] he developed. Throwing a punch using his energy, the energies from his core flows like electricity through his muscles. From the center of his chest making the energy travel to his hand will take him minutes to do with out the thin wires of energies connected in his entire muscle body.
"Ha!" Ernesh shouted and a force came out of his hand as he released the energy. A thin spark like electricity can be seen if you squint your eyes enough to observe the punch he delivered. Ernesh nodded in satisfaction as he decided to head back home but another problem arise. Exposed in a different gravity and going back to another made him lost his center. Already tired enough keeping up with his training now he has to deal with his balance and such as he went home struggling and stumbling until he went to bed.
The next day Ernesh woke up and went to the spacial room through the woods where he created an entrance. He even transfered everthing from the secret place inside.
Sitting at the center of the lake where a small land is placed, he holds the class altar where another crystal shines from one of the 4 hands of the human statue. On his waist a baseballbat he made from a thick branch.
[That is a wild crystal with a wild class.] Zero explained the new crystal class.
"Wild?" Ernesh asked.
[Every class started from something and that is a wild class. A person without altar can even developed a wild class as long as he first learned skills before having a class. Before you reached an official tier you need a class altar with an empty crystal class. The name will changed to its proper name once you linked with an altar and input your wild class. Note that having a wild class means that the skill you created or learned will affect the final result.]
"So a class that is already determined is easier since a lot of skills are already made or existed and can be passed on by interacting with the altar while a wild class will result to unknown official class and means I need to come up with a skill if it will turn in a new or undiscovered class. But creating skill is not that hard since I have Zero giving me the skills I needed from rewards." Ernesh understand and proceed to check the skill he collected.
[Intimidation Stance- Focus your energy into your limbs. The skill affects your strentgh in exchange for defence. The moment you dodge, defend or break your stance the skill ends. Energy Cost of skill to activate 20ml.]
"Hm? Zero how much energy does my core has?" Seeing the energy cost Ernesh forgot to calculate his core this whole time as he focused on runic language for the past days.
[Gray cores contains energy from 1L to 5L. You currently have 4L. 1L is used to sustain the Muscle Connection Tunnel and in total you have 3L of energies left. Your core is progressing smoothly but I'm afraid evolving it naturaly before you reach the age of 15 is 99% impossible.]
"Really? My mom said she can raise it though?" Ernesh asked.
[Insufficient information has provided about improving core by the gods. The only information where a gray core evolve is by using the Revolving Wheel pill and the Core Fruit. Note that by consuming one of those two before the age of 15 will get your core stopped the natural chance of evolution.]
"Mom and Dad told me the same thing that is why they never give me the revolving wheel pill yet." Ernesh remembered that his father went and spent half of their fortune for the pill. His mother postpone the taking of the pill until his age of 15 hoping his core will evolve naturaly.
"Zero, how much energy does a red core has?", He ask.

[Red core has 10L to 20L of Energies.]
"Fuck my core!" Ernesh exploded in shock as he learned the gap of an average core in specific numbers and understand fully why gray cores are considered trash.
[Not only that, the gap will be greater the more advance the core is.]
"Please don't mention it. I'll try and focused on my skill now and be happy with what I have." Ernesh stood and began practicing the skill Intimidation Stance.
The skill was pretty simple now that he had the Muscle Connecting Tunnel. The skill required him to transfer the energies on his limbs and keep it at rest only to activate during attacks. Keeping the energies at rest in his limbs is like his Muscle connection Tunnel. He needs to maintain the energies until the body recognize the skill. Also, he needs to leave his body open and focus everything in attacking. After many tries before succeeding he decided to try it.
Using the skill he stood while the bat on his hand is placed on his shoulder copying the image Zero showed him. A thick wooden pole stood in front of Ernesh as he tried to swing the bat sideways. Bam! The wooden pole made a crack but so his bat. The force is stronger indeed and also his attack speed quicken. The only draw back is that he cannot run as it breaks the stance nor dodge or defend. A skill that uses attack as defence.
"I need a better wood." Ernesh remarked as he saw the cracks on his bat.
Ernesh returned home earlier and went to the blacksmith. He asked for a wood that is used on making clubs. The blacksmith just gave him 10 pieces of hardwood and showed him what the tree looks like. Ernesh nodded in satisfaction and showed the blacksmith the baseballbat and ask if he could turn the 10 hardwoods into baseballbats. After he is done he decided to go on the outer circle of the village where the farmers are located. He then started asking about crops and how to grow them.
Ernesh spent his entire day learning from crops to herbs. He took one each type of crop and herbs he can gather. Returning at the spacial room, he went to the Landscape magic circle and placed the crops, herbs, branches and one of the crystal from the altar.
"I have no more magical beasts bonedust. Sacrifice should be made in order to gain something." Using one of the class crystal from the altar he access the landscape function while holding one of Mira's research book following the instructions written.
"Alum" He chanted as he slit his wrist and blood ooze out. He took a vial that contains red liquid from one of the boxes after he is done. He applied the liquid on his wrist and drank the remaining. The wound stopped the bleeding and began recovering slowly afterwards. The magic circle shined brightly melting and disintegrating everything that is placed on it. Afterwards a row of crops and herbs can be seen planted as a germinating seeds.
Each row has a dozen of seeds. Carrots, wheat, potatoes, peas, Barley and rye for crops. Blood Flower, Maiden's herb, Dragon's tounge herb and Yarrow flower for herbs.
"They maybe a dozen now but I can farm faster in this place. When I get strong enough I will hunt for materials and improve this place and soon... I'll be rich! Hahaha-"
[Your grade has dropped to C]
"Fuck! C'mon! Of course I will also hunt for the anomalies and ensure my reincarmation. I was just caught by the moment. Zero!"
Ernesh finally began his hoarding plan to riches. Not only the crops and herbs he even got branches of fruit trees like the apples, apricot and lemon trees. He even planted the Hardwood trees for him to make for his bat.
[Skill Rage Mode - A skill where your heart and core connects. In case of near death or when your in adrenaline rush the skill activates immediately. Effects are 50% increase in body Strenhth, Agility, Dexterity. Focus increased 25% and time perception will be 10% slower.]
His time spent in the spacial room includes the mastery of his skill and gravity training. For now He focused on Intimidation stance and Rage mode.
That day continued as a week pass by when Ernesh began to hang out in the outer circle asking the farmers how to farm and herbalist the use of the herbs and how to grow them. Ernesh is out of the woods most of the time and when he is in the clan village he can be seen hanging out with the farmers and herbalist with his strange long club on his waist.
Brighid was troubled seeing this and she thought that her son seems to have given up becoming a warrior. While Zane smiles seeing his son looking for other option instead of becoming a warrior. Other kids began to know Ernesh more and more as they began to see him at the outer circle compared to when he is just training in his house. Of course some of the kids took pity on him and some just ignore him knowing what his future will be in the clan. Most children that got closer to him are children that had red or yellow core which is considered average or normal.
The Gram Clan consists of warriors. Even the farmers are warriors but they have weaker core so they devote more of their time in growing crops and taking care of horses. Yellow cores are seen as your average soldier on the kingdom and you can seldom see ones with red cores. Green core is considered talented but they are not that few. Cyan is more valued as talented by the people as their are plenty of them but limited. The genius have core that are most treasured individual whose core are blue and magenta and the highest of them all is the black/white core where almost all kings and emperrors have.
Of course there are some special individual that are valued greatly despite their core. One of them is Zane who unconsciously have his energies and his muscles connected due to his core going berserk when he was scammed by an experimented Revolving Wheel pill. He almost lost his core but thankfully to his huge physique he withstood the pain and become more powerful although his core is just green.
The next day marked the first day of the season of fire. The merchants from the Waterlake city came with the rewards of livestocks and 5 thousand gold. The merchants are under one of the noble houses. Although the nobles don't like the clans they still had to cooperate or they will be kicked out. King Lancelot rule is simple to them. Serve under the kingdom or leave. Plot against the kingdom and die. Corrupt my people and die. The nobles know this and of course this rule is backed by the 4 dukes that supports the king. Any signs of usurping the throne has been dealt with immediately so the nobles know when to draw the line base on the past events.
Ernesh and Zane is the one who is most excited about the arrival of merchants. He doesn't have any money yet but this time they gave him enough especially Brighid who made a deal with Ernesh. 10 gold coins in exchange that he will do one of his mother's request. Brighid stated that the request is just a task and he doesn't have to worry. Ernesh agreed and got the 10 gold coins and another 2 from his father.
