Chapter 3: Buddhist Dungeon.

Time passed and Albert was now 14 Years Old. His body was fully developed and his muscles were fully developed. He could now carry at least 150 Kilograms of weight without adding mana.

He has been hunting monsters and eating them to strengthen himself while training. This is also the reason why his body became even stronger when he was training.

Elenore experienced a change as well. She reached the 7th Class. She can now be given a noble title in the Lionel Kingdom. 7th class magicians are very treated handsomely by the kingdom. As long as she shows her level, she will get a title of nobility for sure.

She even tried to persuade Albert to go with her to line in a new life. She of course didn't want her son to live in such a bad Condition as now. The house they are lining in now is dilapidated and it seems like it can collapse at any moment.

She felt disappointed when Albert refused to leave Tin Village. But some understanding was established in her. Albert was born in the Imperial Capital but grew up in the Tin Village. All his memories start here, so it's not easy to leave.

"Mother, do not worry about me. Although I'm not a mage, knight, martial artist, I am going to be a true martial artist." That was what Albert told her when she looked worried and disappointed. He also gave her a lesson.

"Mother, I've been thinking about this for a while." " Are mages, knights and Martial Artist really that strong.?"

"I've been asking you about martial artists but you don't know any martial artist who reached 5th Circle. They depend too much on mana. Mages have long rage attacks but against close combat, they are weak."

"Knights are better. They are almost immune to magic due to aura, but they depend too much on their weapons." "Is there not something that involves all of them in this world.? "

" Destroying a mountain is called the highest feat a strong person can achieve in this world, but is that the end of it. Does it mean that once you use 10th Class magic, you are now a god?. Just because you destroyed a mountain, with one 10th Class, you are already god".

" Are gods that weak?" When Elenore heard this, she was shocked. How did her suddenly become like this. Thinking more about it, she felt like it made sense.

'everyone wants to become a god and live long. A 9th Class magician can fire 2 9th Class magical attacks and then run out of mana. Why? Why are we so weak? Have we been walking a wrong path from the start? Is this a conspiracy? ' she felt a cold chill on her back just thinking about what Albert said.

Truthfully, Albert was using his novel ideas to make such arguments and hypothesis. The idea of mana solidification came from a certain novel were the M.C used pills to form stars inside his body. Each star was made of a massive solidification of energy.

'This is a world of mana and magic. The possibilities are endless.' Those are the words that kept him moving. But one thing worried him. His mother was getting older and older and her mana circles near her heart are very unstable.

If he can introduce to her this idea of creating mana core's around her heart as mana circles, her magic would become the greatest in the world, but she has a weak body. How can she withstand a core of immense mana.

The reason why he's been training his body all this time, is because he's been worried that his body might be unable to fully contain the immense mana. Now he is thinking of learning how to use weapons instead of his fists.

Ever since he was young, Albert has been able to split his mind do two separate things at the same time. Like that time when he was attacked by a mysterious close combat mage in the forest.

He was gathering wood for cooking new hunted beast meat when he met a man dressed in black. That man had attacked without saying anything and with clear killing intent.

That was when he learned to attack with both hands and not lose balance. It also reminded him of those dual-sword practitioners of the cultivation novels.

He was planning to train in using dual weapons. A sword and a spear or two swords or two spears. His body was strong so it is not good to use a dagger, right?.

Whoop Woop woop.

Sounds of wind whopping resounded in the forest.

One could see a youth with fair skin, black hair and bare upper body. There was sweat all over his body.

Albert has been training for weeks now. 2 to be exact. He started by using a wooden sword to swing and stall 1 000 per day. On earth, lever did martial arts so, he had no way of making pro movements. But he did read and watch some martial arts bull crap.

Bruice Lee, Jackie Chan and others were his favourite on earth.

The people who can be called swordsman or spearman didn't come out of thin air. They trained hard and eventually became good. Everything starts little. A swordsman started by swinging a sword so many times that his body ended up finding new ways of attacking with a sword and that caused the appearance of techniques.

That is his logic.

A really true and good logic.

After training with both the sword and spear in his hands, Albert heard a sound behind him.

"Ally, come quick".

Elenore came running behind him.

Albert could sense a sense of urgency in her voice.

"What is going on, Mother?" He asked curious.

Huff huff huff.

Finally, she arrived next to Albert and her breath slowed down.

"A dungeon has been discovered in the Inner Forest area. It might cause a monster break at any time. Come and participate too." After calming herself, she said.

It was not the first time Albert had heard her talk about participation. Because, he was not like the other Children in Tin Village, he didn't have friends, reputation nor a proper life. Elenore was worried about what will happen to him after she dies.

But after hearing about a dungeon, his heart skipped a beat.

" What?"

"Look". Elenore took out a crystal ball and injected a bit of mana inside.

At the same time, the ball started to play a scene that attracted Albert's attention.

"This is an image captured by one of the children who were playing in the forest and discovered this dungeon." Albert could see the images play, but as time passed, the more the shock he felt.

There were paintings of bald-headed man sitting on a lotus position on the walls at the entrance of the Dungeon.

'. Aren't these Buddhist?'

'is this a Buddhist Dungeon containing Buddhist Treasures? '.

In this life, he had never heard of Buddhists.

He knew about churches who worshipped the gods, either good or evil, but never heard of Buddhism existed in this world.

" What the hell is going on here? "
