Creation System: Reborn As A Fantasy Worldsmith

Chapter 307 Mana Alcove; Three Months Of Training

"Shadow," Lyrian said as he stood up, enveloping Panixu in his shadow realm at once.

He stood up as Nova flew over to him from a nearby tree branch.

"Oh... you're back. I told you to get some sunlight for a few hours and totally forgot I left you back at the pond. I'm surprised you found me."

Nova gave Lyrian one big peck on his head.

"I might have deserved that..."

Lyrian, the butt-naked boy, finally made his way back to the pond. At that moment, he realized that he was so into martial arts that he forgot he was doing them completely naked.

He felt a little embarrassed now but shrugged it off. It wasn't like there was anyone nearby anyway.

Plus, he thought, "Varant said to have perfection in thought... there's no point in worrying about stuff that's already happened. That only breeds weakness in the mind."

After he arrived back at the pond, Lyrian took a full bath and washed his clothes out. Then, he hung them up to dry again, staying naked as he jumped into the middle of the pond.

"With the knowledge of the panda... I know exactly what's down here in this hole." He smiled as he swam toward the water cave that the bear had exited at first.

He held his breath and swam into it.

The tunnel was fairly spacious and he swam straight for another few meters before arriving at a surface where he could rise above the water.

As soon as he did, he came across a large cavern room. He stepped out of the small pool of water where he came in from.

Walking in, he noticed that the room was very brightly lit with an ore that he had seen before.

"Manathryll... and a heaping load of it as well. It seems no one has ever explored this place before..."

Walking in more, he came to the center of the cavern room that was about 100 square meters in size and sat right in the middle--where lay a flat place that Pan usually sat at.

Why did the panda sit here? Well, it was simple--because this place was an;

"Unlooted Mana Alcove." Lyrian grinned through his teeth as he felt the vibration of mana pulsing through him.

Without hesitation, Lyrian began to use his Cerberus Cultivation Technique.

[Mana gained per consumption is doubled due to the high mana density in your area]

"Haha! Perfect!"

Just like that, Cerberus began to run around and feast on all of the mana blobs floating around in the air.

By the end of the day, Lyrian returned completely satisfied with his day.

As he lay in bed that night, he thought about his journey so far.

He wanted to remember why he was doing this in the first place. The reason was to find that freedom, that liberation that untied him from all restrictions and binds.

He took in a deep breath, proud of what he had accomplished so far.

He had sacrificed a lot, and at this moment, it felt like things were finally beginning to pay off.

However, he couldn't allow himself to get complacent. After all, he could barely even call this the beginning of his journey for power.

Far more lay ahead of him. Figures and powers across the world that ruled with absolute dominion stood in his path.

What he needed now was power, and for the next three months, that's what he would try to maximize in his training for the deployment exam.

At that moment, Alten and Leon barged into his room.

"Lyrian! Where have you been today, man!? We were looking for you everywhere to play BF."

Alten shouted as Leon entered along with him.

After this, the three spent the night talking about their goals and futures.

At the end of the talk, when everyone was ready to go to sleep, they all ended their words with a final message.

First was Alten, who exclaimed, "I want to never disappear, and do what is of only golden standard."

Then Leon, who at first felt a bit hesitant to say his dream out loud.

"Well... I want my name to be hailed across the realms; Zaryn and the heavens."

And finally was Lyrian, "To rule everything that I can see with my own two eyes and experience with my five senses. That is my dream."

The three went to sleep in their separate beds that night, and at the start of the next morning began their three-month training for the deployment exam.

Their knowledge of it was scarce, but their determination was strong.

Just like that, days began to fly by...

The three even hunted together at times, practicing while strengthening their bond.

As days and weeks passed, each of them upped their cultivation and fighting prowess.

Nearly a month later, Lyrian unlocked his first Daemon of his cultivation technique: Astaroth.

Astaroth bestowed Lyrian with a red aura mana that allowed him to cultivate far more efficiently.

With the help of the mana alcove, he began to receive double what he was getting before, which was almost double what he was getting without the mana alcove!

Days continued to pass as they marked off on the calendar.

They were in the thick of the winter when snow swept across the giant academy campus and covered everything with a layer of powder.

Lyrian broke through the second Layer of Genesis merely 20 days later, increasing his strength by leaps and bounds.

For the next month and a bit, Lyrian continued to follow his schedule and rigorously train until the weather began to clear up again, and spring introduced itself.

The flowers all began to bloom, and the species of birds began to migrate back.

Bugs flew through the air, the grass and trees were revived to their luscious green colors, and best of all, Lyrian had gotten a hell of a lot stronger.

Standing in front of the mirror, Lyrian observed the slight changes in his body.

It wasn't much different from before, but he had definitely gained more muscle than before.

"Now... I wonder how my stats are looking. It's been over three months since I last checked... Gear, show me my stats."

[Sure!]
