Back in the bedroom, Zavier let out a sigh that was reminiscent of how difficult it had been to explain himself to Valerie. If it had not been for his ambiguous answers, he would have still been there answering questions and clearing her doubts.

Now that he was safely in his bedroom, he wanted to do a quick data scan.

As a part of his daily routine, Zavier had made it a must to activate the shared mode with his clones at least once a day when he came back from school.

This would keep him in the loop with his clones and would also let him get used to the shared senses that will help him increase his mental strength through excessive consumption.

He wanted to go through all the events that his clone had gone through for the day.

"System, enable the shared mode."

[Sharing mode has been successfully enabled. You are now successfully sharing your senses with one other clone.]

As soon as the system notification message displayed on his screen, a flood of data entered his mind. It felt like watching a surveillance film on fast forward. All the events of the day that the clone had undergone, were now a part of his memory.

Zavier couldn't help but be fascinated. With the help of his clones, he could experience every bit of his new life. There would be no opportunity cost as he could choose all the options at once.

Previously, on the way home he had been thinking that he could not continue to advance his illusion techniques alone.

He had to make the clone practice mage skills so as to gain some attack power as the illusionist skills despite their huge restrictive effects had quite a weak offence in the beginning.

He willed the system to make the clone in teh closet practice Magus system as well.

[Unable to follow user's command. One clone can only practice a single system throughout. Changing to Magus system now will wipe the memories and effects of the Mesmer system from before.]

[Only the main body has the privilege of using multiple systems by accessing the memories and experiences of the clones practicing different systems.]

[User is advised to make a new clone for practicing the Magus system.]

[Are you sure you want to proceed?]

"No."

"But how can I make a new clone now? Won't my brains explode from the inside out?"

[User can rest assured. User's mental strength has exceeded the minimum value required for the maintenance of two clones at once after reaching rank two in Mesmer system.]

"Then, I want to make an additional clone."

[Cloning of the user was successfully completed.]

[You now have a total of two clones.]

[User should get used to sharing senses with two clones at the same time. Initially, the symptoms of dizziness and incapacitation may be expected due to overusage of mental faculties.]

Zavier felt like cursing. The system had just told him that he was capable of making two clones but he hadn't told him the side-effects.

As if feeling what was brewing inside his mind, system played it safe and decided to give information voluntarily so as to avoid his wrath.

[User is apprised that the symptoms will only occur if the sharing mode is deployed for an extended period of time so, he does not need to be worried.]

[What system would the user like the new clone to practice?]

"Magus system."

[Magus system has been selected successfully. Clone 2 will follow the path of a mage from now on.]

Although he had already selected the magus system, it was previously being pursued by the main body. Due to the limitation of hiding his true strength, he had to avoid practicing his mage skills.

This was the reason that his Mesmer rank had increased while his Mage rank was still the same.

The addition of the new clone would allow him to practice his mage skills without any stoppage.

Also, the bedroom closet was not suitable for the practice of mage skills. His clone would have ended up destroying the mansion with the immense destructive power of Magus system.

Zavier thought for a moment before deciding on a suitable place of practice. In the end he chose the woods closest to the mansion for this purpose.

The woods were the best place out of sight, with enough practice targets and natural camouflage. Moreover, the woods offered various places for hiding in case that clone did end up coming across the one odd individual who strutted in.

By this time, Zavier was starting to feel slight headache from having to maintain mental function of three bodies at the same time. He also had the feeling that the symptoms mentioned by the system were very close at hand.

As such, he only watched the clone 2 until he reached the woods and started to practice his Magus skills.

"System, initiate the individual mode."

[Individual mode has been successfully enabled.]

He felt that his head was about to burst with pain when after he was done with everything. The nerves inside his head were throbbing continuously as if acting as a reminder of the pain that he was feeling every single second.

He fell down on his bed fighting the pain that was chewing him out from the inside. The only thing he could do at this time was bear with it and take rest.

When in pain, it was harder to fall asleep. Zavier struggled with it for quite a while before sweet sleep took him in his arms and he traveled to dreamland.

Zavier was so tired that he never woke up for dinner despite many worried calls of the maid from outside the door of his room.

Even Nadia had come to his room to wake him up twice, but he never budged.

In the end the girls let him sleep and went ahead with their dinner.

The next day, Zavier was shocked to see that it was already day time when he woke up. He had slept through the rest of the evening and the whole night. This was enough to show, how much of a stress the multiple clones and shared senses could put on him, during the shared mode.

He followed his morning routine and went for breakfast.

He felt a little intimidated because all three girls were looking at him with cold eyes as if he had committed some crime. Even the ever cheerful Nadia was looking at him with slight enmity.

Only Aunt Valerie had a slight smirk on her face as if he deserved what was happening to him.

In reality, both Nadia and Kacie were a little angry with Zavier for not telling them about his abilities earlier. Zavier could somewhat understand their expression of anger.

But he had no way to hide how uncomfortable he was feeling at that moment.

When Zavier had born through the painful breakfast and the carriage ride to the school, only then did Nadia and Kacie gradually let him off.

"Serves you right for hiding it from us. If you do it again, we won't forgive you."

Both the girls headed off to their classes after giving him a final warning.

Meanwhile, Valerie had stayed around to watch the scene bearing a playful smile the whole time.

Zavier couldn't wait to rush out as soon as the girls had left. He wasn't foolish enough to wait for Valerie to open her mouth as well.

He would rather not hear a couple more threats so he lurched off towards his class without a slightest look towards the class teacher who was currently giving him a mischievous look.

The same looks continued even in the class that previously would never have bothered to check if he was even present or not.

Although Zavier was somewhat irritated, he did not care about the stares of these people. He marched through the piercing gazes and reached towards the end of the class where he sat.
