2. Mangaka

But, he has a solution for that, its just that he is not sure if it can work. Although the only limit is his imagination, and he should be able to do, its better to be on the safe side.

Akira placed his hand on the pile of cookbooks, which he has due to his predecessor gathering for the manga, and started to use Imagination Magic for the first time after calming down and deciding what he wanted to do right then.

'[Scan] [Absorb] [Comprehension] [Mastery] [Control] [Limit] [Start] [Stop] [Safe]'

Those were the words and intent behind using his magic as he imagined the magic energy scanning all the words, and absorbing it directly in his brain, his brain comprehending it perfectly and use it as if he had mastered it, and lastly a safety measure to ensure nothing out of control happens with limiting the information rate to prevent harm to himself.

Despite his worries, it worked splendidly! He was done in under a minute, but at the same time, he was drained as his magic capacity was very low but it recovered instantly so he barely felt tired, just very excited with the knowledge, muscle memory and the system notification.

The best part being that the books did not get damaged or change in any way.

[Skill Cooking(Beginner) obtained]

[Skill leveled up. Cooking is now at Intermediate level]

"Hah... Haha... Yes!! I did it! Now, let's move onto the manga part."

He gathered all the related books and decided to move on to do the same with other books related to art and manga drawing.

[Skill Drawing leveled up. Drawing is now at Expert level]

After a few minutes of absorbing and mastering the skills, Akira was done with the preparations and ready for his main use of magic he was hoping would work before making first manga to appear in this world.

He picked up the pen and readied the pages needed for the whole volume and then started his magic with clear and precise thoughts in his head with the experience of the last few minutes.

What Akira had planned was that since he had control over the power of words, and the Akashic Records are portrayed as a written record of everything in existence, so he should be able to access it to get the knowledge as long as he gives a certain amount of energy as compensation and then again use his magic to absorb it as it was too dangerous to directly absorb knowledge from the Akashic Records even if his power was of words itself.

The reason for his confidence was the system, and his own power which controls words, so it should be able to control all words. Plus like it said, the only limit is imagination.

So, with that decided, Akira decided to first get all the knowledge to the max level for both cooking and drawing, after absorbing which, he will draw the whole of the Food Wars manga.

'[Scan] [Memory] [Access] [Limit] [Energy] [Control] [Write] [Draw] [Fast] [Start] [Stop] [Safe]'

With those words in his mind, Akira's hand with the pen started moving on the paper with increasing speed, till it reached the max possible for his body as of right now which was too fast for the naked eye to see as only afterimages were seen. Thankfully he had the Never ending Energy gift or else he would have to stop after every few pages.

This continued for quite some time, and after hours his hand finally stopped. By now it was already close to evening, and the sun would set soon. Thankfully, due to having never ending energy, he would not feel tired, or get hungry at all, but that didn't mean that he wouldn't eat or rest as he likes eating, being a foodie in both lives, and lazing around while getting stronger, who doesn't like that?

'Those who say they don't, are liars. 100%'

Akira then repeated the process and after a few minutes, he stopped with the sound of some system notifications.

[Drawing skill reached the max level at Mastered. As skill reached max lvl, you have got a gift - 'Infinity Drawing Set']

[Infinity Drawing Set - It has all the tools you would require for drawing and will never finish as they will get refilled infinitely and never be damaged]

[Cooking skill reached the max level at Mastered. As skill reached max lvl, you have got a gift - 'Infinity Cooking Set']

[Infinity Cooking Set - It has all the tools you would require for cooking and will never finish as they will get refilled infinitely and never rust or go bad. It doesn't include the ingredients]

"Woah!! I didn't expect that, but it is definitely a welcome surprise! Well, I'll think about maxing out all skills later. For now, lets get to drawing the manga."

Akira was surprised by the gift he got, but he still had the threat cum warning of his mentor in mind, so he used the same words as before but just changed it as he added draw in it as well.

But this time, he kept his laptop to his side, as he was bored as hell when he used the magic for the first time, and decided to put some anime and movies that he would watch as per their description in the memory of his predecessor that he found interesting.

He queued up many of them as it is neither the first nor the last time he will repeat this, so why not?

Akira then placed his laptop on the side, started it, and then started his magic, as his right hand was making afterimages while his left one was changing pages occasionally, all on its own, while he started watching the anime.

This went on till the next morning till sunrise when he stopped, he had already finished three anime and a movie, along with the complete manga being done. Akira was also when he learnt a new skill.

[Skill Parallel thought(Beginner) obtained]

"Damn, I love this power already. It is too OP!!"

With a happy mood, Akira freshened up, and waited for his mentor to pick up the manga, and ordered some breakfast.

After a while, his breakfast had arrived, and by the time he was done enjoying yakisoba pan and tamagoyaki, his mentor also arrived.
