Bruce raised his hand again. The next time he imagined a smoldering fire, to increase the chances of success, his mind imagined the process of the existence of fire according to the laws of physics. The formation of fire is a process of chemical reactions that occur due to the presence of carbon dioxide, water vapor, oxygen, and nitrogen. 

This chemical reaction is called oxidation.

Oxidation is the process by which oxygen molecules react with other elements, elements that rub together will release electrons that create sparks.

You can guess how happy Bruce was when it worked out.

"My fireball. I finally have a fireball." his eyes became moist, this had been his dream since he was a child. 

While others dream of being influential and having high salaries, he even dreams of being able to burn people who like corruption with a fireball. It was a wonderful time, but a bit embarrassing to remember.

He let the warm fireball burn for a while, the warmth emitted by it was very real. 

The fireball slowly extinguished as its energy source ran out.

That's when Bruce felt the side effects of excessive use of mana, his body felt very heavy. He threw himself and lay motionless on the futon.

His back ached from the impact, and he was eager to immediately have a large inventory so that he could put a soft mattress in. With his eyes closed, he entered a half-meditative state and looked at his mana reserves. 

The mana inside his body had dimmed, even though all Bruce used was a small ball of fire and wind.

This was the reason why he had been stubborn about reading the novel for the past three days. According to some references he read, using mana to the end is beneficial for beginners, as it will make their mana capacity multiply. In addition to being beneficial, some books say it is harmful, but he chooses to believe in his first opinion.

The second opinion made him sad.

Mana's core method was inspired by some comics and novels he had read in his previous life, such as Supreme Magus, TBATE, Oracle Path, and some books he read yesterday.

In the novel, Lith is described as very strong for children his age, it can even be said to be almost invincible. In addition to having a fantastic amount of mana, his physique is also capable of defeating monsters.

According to him, Lith Verhen should be the perfect main character, he is also on the gray line, not hesitating to kill when necessary. But when Carmila's character enters the story, all of that breaks down. 

He was sad to think of a good story ruined by the author, he forced the character into Lith's life, so he thought it failed. Maybe if the implementation was appropriate, it would be good, but the author proved to be a failure. I mean, imagine when a monster has seven eyes, each eye has a high level of elemental mastery.

Having a body taller than the Hulk and as sinister as a demon, his race name is also Tiamat, the father of all demons. A mixture of dragon and phoenix bloodlines. But it was ruled by a bitch? 

FUCK!

A slight flashback to the past awakens Bruce's passion for becoming a great wizard. He swore there would not be any bitch who could impose his will. Even if it is his future spouse.

After being able to move, he walked to the bathroom and soaked in the tub. 

On a whim, he channeled mana into the water, manipulating the liquid element as he saw fit. It was at that moment that Bruce embodied the hand consisting of water, he moved it stiffly before his mana ran out once again. 

His mana reserves hadn't even fully recovered, they were already depleted again. Bruce trained until late at night, when his mana was exhausted.

He would rest and resume when fully charged.

Coming out of the bath, he got dressed and covered himself with a warm blanket.

Before falling asleep, he sets the alarm at full volume and puts it under the pillow.

"When it's cold-cold like this, I want a woman," Bruce said longingly before falling asleep.

Although his behavior may be like that of a bastard who escaped from a nightclub, he is still a pure virgin. Bruce OG may not have been a virgin, he certainly had some bed battles with Betty or other women in the Marvel Universe. But he is dead, in his body now dwells the soul of a pure virgin, who has never even been dating for some personal reasons.

The reason he acted like that was because he didn't want to be ridiculed by others if they found out.

…

Bruce, who had been training like crazy last night, was fast asleep on the futon. Nasty words came out of his mouth, and his hands twitched as if fingering something. A stupid smile flashed on his face, and saliva rushed from his mouth like a waterfall.

* Kriiiinnnngggg*

"Ahhh, it wasn't me who touched your breasts! I swear to you." 

Startled by the sudden ringing, Bruce said what was first on his mind right then and there.

Then he came to his senses from a state of shock and noticed what made him wake up from his sleep.

"Damn, a fucking alarm, haaa" then realized it was just an alarm from his cell phone while looking at the clock on his phone screen.

Bruce was eager to get back into a warm and comfortable blanket.

4 a.m., he was never someone who diligently got up early.

"Haaa, if you want to recover faster, I have to do this," Bruce said resignedly.

Waking up from his minimalist mattress, he walks like a zombie into the bathroom. But when it touched a drop of water, his whole body shivered.

It's fucking cold.

Bruce looked at the unheated water and let out a long sigh.

Wait a minute, heat?

"Hmmm... naruhodo, dattebayo, kimochi," he said carelessly, using Japanese terms he knew while stroking his chin.

- Maybe I can do it, count it as a warm-up before jogging- he thought to himself.

Bruce stripped off all his clothes and got naked. His right hand dipped into the bathtub, his eyes closed, and his expression turned serious.

His right hand was burning with fire along his arm, like the hand of a demon. The burning flame slowly shrank and entered Bruce's hand. A stream of heat flowed through the veins of his hands towards his palms.

- Come on, just imagine that your palm is like a shirt iron - his head begins to imagine how a shirt iron works.

Clothes iron has a conductor side at the bottom, used to iron wrinkled clothes into a neat. The metal is very hot, so it is not recommended to touch it with bare hands without safety devices. It is a simple tool, but imagine when the electricity used to heat the metal creases several times. 

We can even cook barbecue on it.
