Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Chapter 17 Mana Drugs

Buler Von knocked on the door with his pale hand.

"Come in"

Hearing Zick's voice, he entered the room with solemnity written all over his face.

This is the first time Butler Von had ever used such a huge amount of money like this to buy things without stopping, this made him dazed.

After buying all the things written on the paper it almost cost 1.5 billion dels. Even hearing the prize made him feel dazed again internally.

Even while he was in a daze, Butler Von didn't show any other emotions on his face, but his pale hands still showed how he felt right at the moment.

Looking at Zick's face which still had a smile on his face made him calm down a little. he had grown used to seeing Zick smiling all the time by now.

Walking near Zick Butler Von handed over the ring to him.

The ring was in silver colour with a red jewel in the middle of it.

It was a high rank space ring which cost more than 200 million dels but it was worth the prize.

The high rank space ring had the storage of 300 cubic metres of space inside it.

"You can go now"

"yes"

Bowing towards Zick Butler Von left the room.

Looking at the ring, Zick could see all the items within it after he sent his mana into it.

Seeing that all the items he ordered were inside the ring. He took out one of the vials from within it.

There was a red colour liquid inside the vial, When he opened the lid of the vial a disgusting smell of different herbs mixed up filled the room.

Not bothered by its smell, Zick brought the vial near his mouth and started drinking it with a calm face.

When the content of the vial reached his stomach, he felt a burning sensation. Bearing with it, he waited for the mana drug to start working.

Slowly the burning sensation lessened and started spreading all over his body.

"haaa...."

Breathing out loudly, Zick started controlling his mana and absorbed all the mana which was now overflowing in his body.

The burning sensation in his stomach was nothing but a huge heap of mana, after it spread all over his body it started to gather around the mana nerves on its own.

After 10 minutes all the mana overflowing within his body had already been fully Absorbed by his mana nerves.

Closing his eyes, Zick felt the mana within his body. He had directly broken through to the  middle rank knight stage at one go.

His mana had doubled and his physical strength increased along with it. His sense improved to a level that he could even hear what was happening outside his room without any problem.

As the mana quality increased, Zick could see strands of black mana at some places within the mana nerves.

'Impurities....'

The black strand of mana were the impurity, it would decrease the original potency of the mana and even not allow a person to become a master swordsman.

Zick let the impurity be and took out another vial of mana drug from his space ring. Not hesitating, he drank it in one gulp.

Doing this 10 times, he has only the last three  mana drugs left within the space ring. By using 10 of them he had crossed the halfway mark of middle rank knight easily.

When someone's rank increases, the time needed for climbing higher rank also increases exponentially.

It would have taken nearly 3 years for Zick to reach the high rank knight stage normally. But the drugs had decreased some of that time.

He could feel hundreds of black strands of mana in his mana nerves. When he removes the impurities in the mana nerves, his current progress being in halfway of the middle rank would also decrease by a lot.

'It can't be helped'

Zick was already satisfied with his current progress by becoming a middle rank knight.

The protagonist was just a lowest rank knight when he entered the academy so Zick had surpassed him by a lot already.

Using mana drugs to increase your mana is only done when a person is desperately in need for strength. No one on the continent has found a way to get rid of the impurities just yet.

But Zick already knew of a method from the novel.

Taking out a herb which shined in blue colours, he kept it in front of him.

This herb is called maigen herb, it is a famous material used in the alchemy society.

It can absorb the property of any elements, though there are some specific limits it can come a lot useful to all the alchemists.

Drinking the holy water of the sun god temple directly heals the injuries on the body but the method mentioned in the novel could make the holy water directly work upon the mana.

Not wasting any time, Zick took out a bowl from his space ring and kept the maigen herb in it.

Using his mana, he mashed the maigen herb into a paste and then poured the holy water into it directly.

Seeing the maigen herb paste absorbing the holy water, Zick nodded his head. He took out one of the mana drugs and added it to the bowl.

Waiting for a minute, he took the bowl and drank its content without hesitation.

Feeling the burning sensation that was incomparable to before, he got up from his bed and stood some distance from the bed.

All the mana with holy property entered his mana nerves and started dispelling the impurities.

"cough!...cough!"

Zick started coughing out black blood filled with impurities. Cleaning the blood on his mouth with a piece of cloth, he checked his mana nerves.

'as I thought...'

There were still impurities left in it, he had drank 10 mana drugs non stop which had increased the impurities in his mana nerves to a huge degree.

Taking out another set of material, he started doing the same process again.

"Cough!"

Zick coughed out the last impurity in his mana. After doing the same process for two more times he had removed all the impurities in the mana nerves.

Looking at his mana which was as pure as crystal, he was satisfied.

With a genuine smile on his face, He took out a scroll from the ring and tore it above the black blood.

The scroll started shining in blue light which covered the black blood, then it vanished along the black blood.

The scroll was imbued with a magic named cleanse, it is a lowest rank spell which is used for cleaning.

Without noticing it had already become midnight.

Zick laid upon the bed and started sleeping.

'I should try becoming a lowest rank mage while travelling.....'
