Versatile: Alternate World

Chapter 519 Practicing Magic

A week has passed since the events in the frozen region transpired. The rewards were going to be given to us for a week since Queen Tanya didn't prepare for the rewards just yet and since there were a lot of us who participated in that raid, she decided that she will give us the rewards after a week. Since the physical rewards were delayed, we received a million gold and 5 million experience. As I received the experience, I finally reached level 120. That was the longest time I had to earn experience just to reach this point. If I didn't choose the Versatile Class, perhaps I was already at level 180 or above already considering how much experience I earned in the span of a few days.

Still, it's not that bad considering the stat addition of the Versatile Weapon. Power-wise, I am already level 280 or above depending on my gear. If someone tried to check my stats like that, anyone would be freaking out and perhaps even call me a cheater for being able to have that many stats despite staying at level 120.

But let's talk about that later on. Currently, I am now at school and listening to the boring lecture. I am pretending to listen but I only made all the talk pass to my other ear. All of the lessons here are too easy for me and I don't think I would even need to think too much about them. My mind is quite a cheat code all ready for me to pass through the school years.

"And that's all for today, see you all this Monday. Of course, don't forget to study what we discussed today. I will be conducting a test for you guys this Monday so take the break and study hard."

Finally, the end of the day is over. We meet up with Janus and Riko. Rika also went with us since she is still not confident to go back to my house all by herself, especially with all the guards still looking for her until now. As for the siblings, they have to buy something for their class which is why they will be outside for a while. As for Rika who is still living with us, she still refuses to go back.

It has been a few weeks since she has been staying in my house after escaping from her family's grasp and thankfully, no one has yet to discover her yet but it wouldn't be strange if they eventually find her at home as her family is tycoons. They can spend all their money just to search for her and they will still not run out of money.

There is also a possibility that her fiancee will take chances to take revenge on her in real life since he was humiliated before in the game.

Currently, we are waiting for Riko as she is buying snacks on the s

"Hey there! Have you guys been waiting for me?"

"Dang it Riko! What took you so long? It's been an hour before you are finally done! What the heck did you buy to take that long?"

"Oh, sorry about that. I just bought the essentials needed when going for an overnight. Since tomorrow is Sunday, I wanted to stay at Manato's house for a while especially since I am not going to be the only girl there in our group! It's much more exciting now."

"Ugh, you already forgot the main purpose of you staying over right? We are gonna practice our mana, OUR MA-NA! This isn't going to be like a simple vacation, alright?"

"Come on now, Janus, it's not like Riko doesn't know how to practice so at least go easy on her will you," Rika smiled.

"Hehe, you are just jealous because you can't have much kinship with Manato."

"Shuddup! I don't swing that way!"

I just laughed along with them. It really takes me back to the past timeline. I felt so happy to experience the joy in the past timeline again in the current timeline.

"Let's go guys. Time is precious, it would be great if you guys already can summon out your magic spells."

We are able to still keep our task a secret from anyone else as the other two siblings won't be there since they will be staying at their parents' house for a week which means everyone can freely practice and I can teach them how to do it.

We went to an alleyway where no one will see us and interrupt us and gathered around.

"Are you sure this will work, Manato? This is the first time we will be teleporting and unlike in the game, this is very different!" Janus is already getting nervous.

"Relax, it's not going to end badly...probably," I grinned and activated the teleport portal I set up before.

"That doesn't even make things even better!"

...

...

Janus managed to calm down when we safely arrived home inside my room. Although he is still panicking, he slowly calmed himself down.

"Why are you so weak, man," Riko is rubbing Janus's back to help him recover from nausea he felt after the teleportation.

"Don't blame me, I have already motion sickness so since it was my first time experiencing teleportation, it wasn't  a particularly good experience for me so please at least understand!"

"Alright, alright. You guys should change to your casual clothes now, we will begin after I am done changing."

"Okay! Thanks for the teleport ride, Manato!" Riko then dragged Janus and Rika out.

Riko already has her clothes in Rika's current room a few days before and since her parents are fine with her staying over as long as we don't do anything that could change their minds. Of course, we are not there for that kind of stuff. It's not that beneficial for our future and would instead compromise us.

Once I finished changing my clothes, I circulated my mana for a bit before I went down to the living room.

"Alright, let's get started! If you guys wanted to learn magic properly and control your mana so that you can be like me, then properly follow and listen to my current lesson. I hope all of you are good to go, yes?"

Why am I doing this? So that once in the future, if Riko eventually is about to fall victim to death, she will have a better time combating it. She has to live and I will do everything I can do for her to remain alive. That way, even Janus will also continue to live.

...

...

I started to lecture them about using the mana to make their own magic spells. After being exposed to the game's mana, it is time for them to bathe in mana in the real world and utilize that for their own usage.

Since Rika is the first one I have reached before, she didn't have a bad time doing so and is now prepared for the next step. As for Janus and Riko, they still needed a little bit of work to properly have their own safety intact. Thankfully, it only needs a little bit more work for them before they are ready to conjure magic spells like me.

I didn't teach Rika magic spells just yet as I want the other two to not be pressured about Rika already learning. It slows down growth if the user will not properly utilize the mana all around them and also inside their body.

It took the two of them properly manage all the mana and control them for around two and half hours to complete it. It's taking a lot of time for them, but they are not bad at it. I just never see them practice it as they are already dead when magic was discovered to be also usable outside the game.

Since the three are now ready, I started to prepare a few things for them to test out so that they can identify which element will be appropriate for them to use. During that time, Sora and Akira arrived while carrying the groceries that they bought. Akira and Sora are also the same as everyone else and they just needed to awaken their abilities and check which elements suit them for the first time.

The test items all correspond in elemental properties. We have a candle lit up, a pail of water, ice cubes, a pinwheel, and a lightbulb. There are other elements but since they are the most basic elements, I wanted to check whether any one of them is good in that certain element. We can just take care of the problem if something occurred.

First is Janus. He tried the candle first but it failed to respond when it comes to the pinwheel, he managed to activate a little bit of wind magic which is already good. Other than the wind, all of the rest are either not meant for him or just not that strong to manifest.

However, the next one that I was shocked for the first time is how Riko managed to awaken two elements at once.
