Infinite Mana in the Mage Academy

Chapter 33 33: City Of Adventurers

"Where the hell did you come from?" Mina shouted.

"Hmm, from my mother's womb," Allen said while sitting on his seat pushing his back at the wall of the carriage. The wall supported his back.

"That's too early! How did you appear here, anyway?"

"Telporting..."

"Teleporting?"

"Isn't that a high-level skill?" Jin asked with a curious eye as he heard the word 'Teleport".

"Yeah, it's a tier 4 skill, use for small teleportation."

"Oh!!"

"Whew! If you guys don't have any business with me, can I sleep?"

Allen didn't wait for a reply and closed his eyes, falling into a deep sleep.

The three other guys inside the carriage looked at Allen with some curiosity, but they sighed and mind their own business.

*****

"Urmm~~"

Stretching his arms, Allen exited the carriage with drowsy eyes. He rubbed his eye and stood in a line.

"We have arrived at City of Adventurers. There is an inn called Mega Huge Inn. Your token number is your room number. If you guys want to explore the city, explore. The academy won't hinder your movement but come to the tournament in time. A second delay, and you will be eliminated. Any questions?"

The principal asked the students with a gaze that pierced everything. The students stood silently before someone raised their hands.

"Sir, what if someone gets in trouble? I mean, got arrested by guards, make problem with nobels... Like those things?"

A timid girl asked holding a long staff in her arms that were long as her height.

"Hmm, if you cause any trouble, you are responsible for it. The academy won't interfere, nor it will care about you. Just make it to the tournament in time, that's all."

"Ok."

...

"If no question, then all are dismissed!"

With a roar, every student walked their way.

Allen separated from the crowds and explored the city.

House not that big, a most 3 stories tall stood mightily on the land. The house was built facing another which made a gap between them, which is the street.

Small stores such as people sitting side of the store with items placed on a cloth waiting for a customer, while some placed on open cart and called for customers. The street itself was like a small market.

Hustling and bustling of people were new for Allen, as he was mostly an introvert and didn't like crowds much.

He wanted to fly but held that urge. It wasn't suitable to fly here, if you want to get shot by the arrows then you can fly.

It wasn't that crowded until he reached the market. The huge crowd of people walking touching other shoulders, the space there was covered by the people. The place was a disaster.

Allen felt suffocation, he didn't want to be there for any second. He anyhow escaped from these people and arrived near an alley.

? Huu! Haa! "What a disaster?!"

Allen took a deep breath. He ignored those people and walked deeper inside the alley without any care.

As the deeper he walked, the darker it became. It wasn't dark as nighttime. After finding a quiet place, he sat down.

He took out the demonic energy he got a reward.

"Whoa!"

A big orb as bigger as a crystal ball floated above Allen's palm. The base of the orb didn't touch Allen's hand. A small golden barrier covered the ball, let it float, and made it untouchable.

"Why is it covered with a barrier?" Allen asked.

[Demonic energy is evil by nature. If touched, it will invade the host's body uncontrollably, making it harder for the mana inside the body to control it and trap it. So, it is for a safety protocol.

"So, if I consume it slowly with my mana, it won't affect me?"

[Yes. Demonic Energy invades the mana heart from the first. And then it spread through the body with the help of mana floating inside the body. It mainly pollutes mana and controls one's heart and brain. But, if it is trapped with mana, it couldn't do anything.]

"Ohh, that's why I survived the previous time."

Hearing that, Allen slowly absorbed the energy. As he consumed the demonic energy, the more his body became hotter. Indescribable energy filled his entire body, refining his organ.

The energy entered inside his mana heart and mixed with the mana already trapped inside. It grew in size as the orb decreased in size.

After consuming the orb wholely, his body was full of energy. He couldn't describe what he was feeling, it was magical.

[Ding! Three Skills Learned]

[Consume: Create a layer of black string that consume mana and life force from other beings. Could consume the whole body.]

[Comman: As long as the host is 3 levels higher than any people, you could control them and command them like your slave.]

[Corruption: Corrupt anyone's mind. Aggression +1, Evil thoughts +1, Desire +2]

What the heck?!!
