14 Chapter 14

Alex:''So you are telling me that some edgy motherfuckers that have numerical codenames attacked me and they are one of the strongest factions?''

Leonard:'' Basically? Yes, in more detail? Some of these people are some of the strongest beings in this world but still beneath the Gods.''

The first question that Alex wants to ask is the question that every being that found himself in this situation would ask.

Alex:'' Why me?''

Leonard:'' Theoretically? They might need some henchmen for their shenanigans, in the reality? They might have found out that you are the chosen one.''

Alex looks back at Litia, but she doesn't seem surprised.

Leonard notices my worry and calms me down.

Leonard:'' Don't worry, she knew you were the chosen one the moment she began healing you, her elvish heritage causes her to be more attached to God's energies, even though the elvish Gods are different from ours but they are still Gods.''

Litia:'' It was a surprise but this would explain how you were to grow so fast and considering your mana core, you still haven't understood the benefits of having that trait.''

Alex:'' Well, thank you then Guild Ledear, and also thank you Litia.'' He says while bowing his head to them.

Leonard:'' Well then, I have got to go now, I still need to find a way to hide fire in the slums area.''

Alex:''' Yeah, that was my fault.''

After that Leonard went out and left Litia and Alex alone.

Alex:'' Since I can't train my body can I at least train my mana core?''

Litia:'' Yes you can, I also suggest you do that, the earlier you reach higher grade mana cores the better it is.''

Alex begins meditating and using the mana whirlpool to attract mana, this time creating the whirlpool was much easier than before, he felt as if the mana was becoming part of his body.

After 2 hours a strange occurrence happened.

The mana core outer shell began to crack, orange energy began to come out of it and suddenly the shell explodes and a smaller core appeared, it's core is orange and the mana coming out of it is much much stronger.

But the shell of the mana core wasn't the only thongs cracking, his body also was, what the book forgot to tell about mana cores upgrades was that the mana inside a body had also to create the perfect host for it, so when the core upgrades also the mana pathways do so, and since Alex is a Chosen One apart from the pathways the body also changed, becoming stronger and more compact.

In the outside world, Litia is using her healing spells to lessen the pain Alex feels.

Alex's muscles are being torn apart, his bones entered in a state of breaking and repairing, the nerves cut and reattached, his skin destroyed and repaired looking it was porcelain, and his pathways constantly changing.

After 2 hours the pain disappeared, and Alex finally relaxed.

Alex's eyes slowly opened, only to see a green sweatshirt on top of his eyes and face.

Alex:'BOOBS.'

Litia began to go away from the bed and returned to her seat.

Litia:'' So? How are doing? This was the first time in my 2000 years(in elvish years she is 20 years old) of life seeing a Chosen One having a mana upgrade, it surely wasn't a good show, but go check your status there will be some surprises.''

Alex does as she said, and there were some major changes just like she said.

Alex:' This surely is surprising, so basically mediating became something like cultivating.'

Litia:'' So? Is it good?'

Alex:'' It's incredible.''

Litia:'' yeah, yeah, now you should go to sleep.''

Litia is right, the only thing Alex wants to do now is to sleep.

Alex:'' Well then, I think I will listen to you, good night.''

In truth, it is only 18:23(6:23 p.m.) but after experiencing such an "exciting" experience his mind was too tired to do anything.

Alex:''Good night.''

A small smile forms on Litia's face, and when she was sure Alex fell asleep she also said goodnight.

.

.

.

Alex wakes up to the smell of pancakes, maple syrup, and bacon.

Litia:'' Aubrey has just left, the bell has already rung, but today you can not go to it, it is a basic history class, and for the daily job don't worry we got it covered.''

Alex:''Thank you, I already feel much better, since I don't have to go to class, and I feel very good can I go training? Not physically, since I just reached the intermediate grade in mana manipulation I want to see what I can learn.''

Litia:'' If you don't train in any physical way then it's fine.''

Alex:''YES.''

He then wolfs down his breakfast and immediately goes out.

His destination is the library but before arriving, he sees Rias's training with 2 knives.

Alex:''Hey Rias.''

Rias turns towards me, and a big smile forms on her face.

Rias:'' Hye dude, where have you been? I haven't seen you in 4 days.''

Alex:'' I got myself hurt and had to stay in the infirmary for some days.''

Rias:'' Everything alright now?''

Alex:'' Yeah, but I can' train physically, only magic.''

Rias:'' Well at least you can do something.''

Alex:'' Yeah, well I will go, I am sure you still have to go to class.''

When she hears me, she finally notices that what he is saying is the truth, and she dushes towards the class's door.

Alex instead walks towards the Library.

Inside Morgana is mediating, but when Alex enters the library she stops and goes back to her desk.

Alex:'' Good morning teacher Morgana.''

Morgana:''Oh, you reached an orange core, good job.''

Alex:'' Yeah, I am not going to question how you know that, instead I am here because I wanted to see if there were any books regarding advanced elements and magic I can learn.''

Morgan raises her right hand and 3 books begin to float in front of Alex, he takes the books and goes towards a table to begin reading the first one.

The 4 books' names are: " Secondary elemental effect", " Learnable magics for beginner magicians", and " The importance of language".

The first book described how the basic 4 elements were actually much useful than anyone would think, the fire element can also be used to heat or cool, the water element can be used to control blood, and at high levels, it can even cause earthquakes, the wind magic as Alex had already done, can be used to control sound, basic tricks like the one he did falls under wind magic, while sound magic is something much scarier but also much more complicated, and lastly, the earth magic can also be used to control metal due to the partial earth inside it.

The second one listed several magics that can be easily learned and even at high levels if used well can cause high damages.

The third one described how normal human language would have no effect on magic, but if you use other languages, such as Elvish, your magic would be empowered, and you will also be able to learn a new type of magic, the one Litia used was known as Nature magic, and it's a type of magic that is learnable only if you know the elven language.

Alex piles the books on the table, and begins his training, he creates a ball of water on the palm of his hand, he then follows the instruction of the book to cool down the water in his hand.

After a few seconds, the ball of water turned into a ball of ice.

Even though the element changed he still can control it even though way harder.

He begins by creating a water lance, and then turn it to ice, then a water dword and turn it to ice, he continues like this creating different water weapons and turning it to ice, he then does the same thing for the fire and earth element, he doesn't try either the sound or metal elements because they require a higher level in earth and wind magic.

After a while, he stops training since his mana reserves have emptied out, and he begins to meditate while using the whirlpool method but this time with 2 hands, a bit difficult but still doable.

He spends the rest of the day training his magic and core, Morgana simply looks at him, Fey had also entered the room, but when she saw what Alex was doing, she simply got out, not wanting to see this type of bullshit anymore.

Morgana approaches Alex and stops his training.

Morgana:'' You surely are a masochist, training all day and not even relaxing for one moment, aren't you hungry?''

When the words hunger came out of the stomach Alex began to rumble.

Alex:'' Hehehe, you are right, I was so engrossed in training I forgot to eat.''

Morgan throws a chocolate bar at Alex, and he wolfs it down.

Morgana:'' The food you just ate is a special food used by adventurers, it tastes like chocolate, and calms down anger by a lot.''

Alex:'' Thank you, I will go out now, I have to talk with Lisa.''

She nods, and while going out Alex checks his magic development.
