Chapter 9 - Rank 3 and Mana Core

{Time Skip- 2 years}

Now Ray is 8 years old. In the last two years he successfully learned 'CALM MIND' skill. He also reached 'Rank 3' in Knight path.

He learned a skill which improves and perfects his body control and posture and also reduces his waste movements. The skill name is 'BODY CONTROL MASTERY'

He also mastered 'Divine body' skill and

'Meteor splitting sword style' To more than 30% mastery. So now he can use both of these skills till Rank 3.

'Meteor Sword Style is definitely a strong skill, but it consumes a lot of internal energy, so he can't use it frequently.

" Mom i am now ready to form my mana core" Said Ray.

" Ok Baby now i will teach you how to form mana core" said Rose.

" Baby which element affinities you have?" asked Rose.

" Mama I have fire, water, wind, earth, blood, dark, lightning, space, time and annihilation affinity but right now only my first four elements are unlocked "Said Ray.

" Yes baby right now you can't control higher rank elements. You have annihilation affinity just like me, it's probably related to the Blessing you got from higher entity and You have two extra affinity as compared to me which are Earth and Lightning affinity." Said Rose.

" Now baby, I will take you to the library where I will suggest you to select your spells carefully and do not spend your time on useless spells.

Right now you are at Rank 1 and you have all basic elements unlocked, so you can select three or four good spells Related to Fire, water, earth and wind elements" Said Rose. Then she teleported them to the library and took Ray to the shelves containing Rank 1 book on all elements.

Ray skipped All basic spells like fireball, water ball etc. and directly started searching for better spells. Ray read description of all rank 1 books and started picking up the spell books which he think will be good for him, and then he also discusses with his mother and sister who were sitting on the sides and were helping him to select spells in the library.

In the end the spells which he decides to learn are

[ Flame Missile(Rank 1 Fire Element Spell) = concentrates fire elements on the finger tips and shoots a small flame missile at high speeds, having penetrating power

Cost = Consumes 100 mana per flame missile ]

[Water Bubble(Rank 1 Water Element Spell)= Surrounds the user in a water bubble and then solidifies it forming a defensive shield around the user

[ Elemental Healing (Rank 1 Water Element Spell) = Brings the water element particles present within the target's body to equilibrium in order to cure status effects like poison, sleep,paralyses. The stronger the target's body, the stronger the effect of this spell.

[ Earth Spike (Rank 1 Earth Element Spell) =

" Baby are you sure you want to learn these four spells?" Said Rose

" Yes brother among them, there are no wind element spells" said Ava.

" Yes mama I am sure, I want to learn these four magical spell and sister I do not like any Rank 1 wind spells that's why decided to not learn them" replied Ray.

" Alright you will start learning these spells from tomorrow baby. Now its almost nighttime so let's go to bathe and then after dinner, we should sleep." Said Rose in gentle tone.
