1 New Life

Ren, 12 years old, male, cyan hair, average face

...

Ren, in the eyes of others, he was a prodigy, he always had a 100% in his score at school, he successfully entered the best school of the world, his parents nearly exploded from joy at this notice, and also sad, as they had to say goodbye to him since he was going to live in the school dorm and they will only be able to see him at vacations,

He was the target of the others envy

But in the eyes of Ren, everything he did was worthless, in his past life, he dedicated his life in studying magic, he was one of the strongest , yet, in this life, he was simply a mortal, as for the reason, it because there isn't mana in the air

In Ren past life, there was a theory that without the existence of the natural mana, one wouldn't be able to surpass his limits, this theory was refuted, as any creature can naturally generate mana

But in this life, Ren learnt that the theory was correct, of course, Ren still had hope, and the hope comes from the ring in his left hand

When Ren was 5 , he noticed that the currently mapped world is similar to three empires from his past life, in addition some of the stories that his grandparents told him were similar to events that happened in his past life, this made him sure that he's still in the same world after reincarnation, it just for some reason, mana disappeared,

After making sure that he was in the same world as his past life, he kept asking his parents to take him to museums, at the 3rd museum, there he saw this ring, he immediately recognized it, it was a ring that he personally created in his past life, and it still had his mark, it was named 'Ring of annihilation'

Whenever he needed time to cast a strong spell, he activated this ring to barage his enemies with powerful spells, truly fitting the saying 'Attack is the best defense'

More importantly, when he crossed by the ring, the ring immediately noticed it master, it then reactivated the spiritual connection between itself and Ren

After coming back to home, Ren contacted the ring, the ring then appeared in his hand, this caused a commotion in the museum, but Ren didn't know and didn't care

Ren scanned the ring, the mana stored it wasn't comparable at all with when it was at it peak, but still, it enough to blow up a city

Thanks to the ring spiritual connection, Ren was able to use his spiritual energy, but the amount of his spiritual energy is low, he guessed that it was a side effect of reincarnation, he couldn't raise his spiritual energy, since he didn't have mana to support it, it may bring side effects to his physical body

Using the ring, Ren casted the spell 'Massive mana detection', but because of his low spiritual energy, he couldn't scan a large area at the same time, the massive amount of information would burn his mind

After 2 months, Ren finally found the places with mana nearby, it was mostly the museums or the mansions of collectors, but what attracted Ren attention is something else, there was a place that was detected even thought it was so faraway, Ren guessed it was because the amount of mana in there was huge, it was the world best school, silverstar academy, this was the reason why Ren studied seriously in school , he already knew those basic information, but now the world didn't have mana, so basic knowledge may be different

When he was nearing 13, he was finally admitted at silverstar, Ren thought that he only had to show off his intellect for a year before being admitted, but so many years passed but he was yet to be noticed, he honestly thought of attacking the school with a 'Pulsar' for not noticing him..

..

Half a year after being accepted, Ren was known as the 'sleeping genius' , he was always late , he slept in class, he didn't seem to care about the lesson content, yet he easily gets the highest score of the class

Half a year after joining the school, Ren finally managed to start generating mana, using the ring he had, he created a formation in his dorm, then he released some of the mana in the ring, thanks to the formation, the mana stayed in his room, after being in constant exposure to the mana, he finally was able to break the shackles of a normal human, his soul and body formed a special link, allowing him to generate mana, this link was also the determining factor if one is able to use magic or no in Ren past life, only one in hundred had this link , well, that is limited to humanity, other races like elves , only one in ten thousand didn't have it...

As for why he didn't do it when he was with his parents, it was because the mana had the attribute of destruction on it, so he feared that his parents would enter his room then vanishing, but since the ring was created by himself, the destruction attribute didn't affect him

"Yawn~"

Right now, Ren was wearing the school uniform, he was on his way to his class

"Ren! You woke up sooner this day!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Ren turned his head toward it source,

Elias Reinerd, Ren classmate, he had blonde hair, blue eyes, he was also in the list of the most handsome of the class, and he was also Ren only friend, of course, Ren wasn't interested in friendship or anything like that, he only cared about magic, that was also the reason he befriended him,

Reinerd, this was the name of the hero that appeared at the south in Ren past life, Ren guessed that the person in front of him was a descendant of his, he confirmed this when he saw him at the sword club, he could feel a bint of battle aura coming from him

From others gossips, he learnt that he is a young master of a wealthy clan, so Ren was sure that he was right

"Are you sure you aren't the one who is late?" Ren said

"I thought the same when i saw you! but i checked my mobile, there's 10 minutes until class starts, did you finally get cured from your disease called 'Laziness?'"

Actually, the reason why Ren is always is late is because he meditate in hope of creating the link between his body and soul, and he always focuse on mediation and forget that it already school time

The Laziness disease is something Ren said once as a joke

Just as Ren was about to say something, he felt a extremely familiar sense, he frowned then he casted ' Spacial detection' and 'Minor mana sense' , the first being casted by his ring and the later by himself

He could tell that something big was happening, the space walls of the world were being removed, or to be more precise, going back to it original form, and at the same time, he could tell that mana was filling the world...

Elias frowned too, then he looked toward Ren and said

"Did you feel something?"

Ren regained his composure and said

"It felt like i was being drowned"

Elias was contemplating something, Ren knew that Elias sensed the mana surge, but he diverted the subject

"Maybe we got sick, let check the infirmary later, hopefully it nothing"

But in his heart, Ren knew it wasn't something simple, he feared that the world may enter another era of chaos...
