Fantastic Beasts of Records: Lecherous Prince Of The Sea

Chapter 13 Ascension Rank

?And as though it heard my greetings and accepted them, I started to feel an uncomfortable force around my pelvic area.

And in an instant, I felt it.

Euphoria.

Far greater than any from my previous life.

In that instant, I felt like I had been given a third life.

…....…...

Now, where was I?

I was done relishing in the bliss of overcoming the shortcomings of my previous life, and even though I wasn't yet satisfied, there is work that needs to be done and I couldn't get it started if I kept on attending to myself.

Focusing on the most important thing in what mad John had told me which was the several ranks and paths of an ascendant.

The first time a person awakens and begins to feel the flow of mana, their mana reserves are tested with an object that gives a numerical value of where they fall into to see which rank they fell under.

The lowest was 1 to 4. If a person ever awakens with the numerical value between such numbers, then they were destined to forever remain ordinary, becoming similar to an average human being back on earth.

Mad John said that some people even commit suicide if they were not ready to live the life of an average human being.

It was understandable though. Knowing that you are not even fit to step into a rank.

Meanwhile, the numerical value where one was deemed viable to become an ascendant was from 5 to 20.

This meant that they have somehow escaped from being one of the 9 per cents of those who are unable to use mana.

But that didn't mean that they have won the lottery yet.

Hmmm!! But I wonder how those who had to awaken with the numerical value of 4 would feel knowing that they were somehow close to close to the winning numbers.

So close, yet still so far away.

And the ones who scratched their cards and won are those that have a numerical value between 21 to 50.

While those who were between 51 to 100 are more than capable of becoming ascendants because they have the highest limit of mana reserves during awakening which meant that they could pick between the paths of any rank if they wished to.

Now, what were the ranks and paths that made everyone wish they had a higher numerical value so they could begin their journey as an ascendant?

The first were those who fell between 1 to 4 and were unable to become ascendant.

They stayed as mortals for the rest of their lives.

But in a world where people could crush metal with their bare hands and summon winds in one breath, surely being an average person unable to utilize mana was more work than it seems.

While those who fell between 5 to 20 fell under the warrior rank because they had barely passed the requirement of the amount of mana needed to become an ascendant so although they are one they still aren't because they have to result in the use of sacred arts to stimulate and use the mana in their bodies.

Putting their bodies through gruesome training where the only thing that keeps them going is their will and determination to get stronger.

The hunter rank was given to those whose numerical value fell between 21 to 50.

While those at the mage rank, those that had achieved the highest possible numerical value during their awakening were able to pick any rank they desire.

You could say that these were born with a silver spoon.

They could pick the warrior rank and put themselves through the gruesome and brutal training methods, the hunter rank or stick with the mage rank that they had been given.

'I might have arrived in this world only today, but I can already guess that they made their choice either between the hunter rank or the mage rank' I thought to myself.

After all, who would want to throw away their silver spoon when some people didn't even find theirs in their mother's womb?

Born with a silver spoon!

Hah!! why do I keep coming up with jokes like this?

Anyway, the paths that one can choose determine the rank they decide on following.

From the Warrior rank, there is the Berserker path, the magical swordsman path and the fighter path.

The Hunter rank consists of the assassin path, ranger path, and trickster path.

And lastly, the Mage rank consists of the summoner path, the sorcerer path, and the beast tamer path.

You get the idea!

The higher a person's numerical value, the more paths are available to them.

Although this is good and all, but just thinking about all these things makes me wonder which rank I fall into.

I am a prince, right?

Surely I belong to a rank and was able to control mana right?

All these questions, and yet no answers.

How did mad John say it was again?

Concentrate on the mana around you and absorb them. Feel them as tiny strings making their way into your body and revolved around your heart.

After that, you will feel your mana pool where every single trace of the mana in your body comes from, and then by doing so, you….

What the hell am I saying?

Fucking mad John!! How the hell am I supposed to understand this?

Sigh!! It wasn't his fault anyway if I couldn't comprehend or implement what he said.

Maybe other denizens of the world of Tharcania might understand, but since I am a foreigner, a person from earth it was understandable that I couldn't even fathom how such a thing works.

Maybe I should ask that female knight about it and ask her to help me?

No! She didn't even want to talk to me, so what are the possibilities of her even teaching me?

Though that doesn't mean that I don't plan on talking to her later because she is the former Prince Wyatts' guard, which means that she was the one with the most knowledge of him.
