Versatile: Alternate World

Chapter 715 Elementals

The two elves continue to gather energy while Renatta continues to supervise the two. The more mana they take, the more the color in their hair has returned to normal as well. Because the rooftop is filled with pure mana due to the two gathering it to recover their mana, the rooftop is also making turning into a place where the elementals gather.

Elementals are what you call spirits. They are like little fairies of various elements but a lot different than Pixie. Despite being categorized as a fairy, Pixie is one of the Fey folk. Elementals are common in the Alternate World but they are not present in the real world. But due to the culmination of mana on Earth, it only made the elementals awaken. They are not that powerful compared to the ones in Alternate World but their existence now in this world also means that they are just developing and the more they developed, the more power they will possess.

"Everyone looks like this is a good time for us to meditate and practice our abilities as well. With all the mana amassing all over here and with the elementals gathering around, it is a very good way for us to increase our abilities with no effort."

When they heard that, everyone nodded and started meditating. Pandora who didn't learn any kind of meditation magic was at a loss since everyone aside from me started meditating their abilities.

"Hey there, Pandora, from the looks in your eyes, you want to learn the same magic they are trying to learn as well?"

Pandora was surprised by my question but she nodded in response.

"Cool. Then, close your eyes and focus your mind. Imagine yourself standing in the middle of nothingness."

Pandora seemed enthusiastic and immediately closed her eyes. As for me, I slowly injected some of my mana into her body, introducing it slowly to her so that her natural mana will also naturally form. I also did this to the others though they didn't notice it which is why they were able to awaken fast enough.

"Once you have imagined yourself in that state, imagine a large body of water in front of you. The bigger it is, the harder it will be to control so start small. A pond or a river, but if you can handle it, try imagining the lake."

The moment I instructed her that, her mana started to pour out which means she is now also awakening as well. She grits her teeth and is struggling for a little bit.

"Don't push yourself too hard. If you push yourself too hard, you will just injure yourself. One step at a time if you can't handle the pressure."

She continues to grit her teeth and slowly bit her lip, she also started to sweat a lot. However, soon enough, the pain displayed on her face disappeared and it was replaced with her usual calm expression.

"The moment the body of water in front of you has been formed, fill it up with water and feel the water flowing all around you. Feel, that the water you are imagining is flowing, is all around you, and all around the body of water that has materialized in front of you as well. Don't think, but feel it. The gushing water that cleanses your soul."

WOOOSHH!

Aura appeared on her body. A cold chill emanated all over her skin and you would think you are touching ice instead of her skin. Just from her awakening alone, it is clear that her element is none other than the ice element. The cold air emanating from her is a big giveaway of what her element is.

In short, she has awakened her latent magic power. Her mana has finally started flowing on her body.

The two elves who are still gathering magic power were surprised when one of the humans awakened all of a sudden. However, they didn't linger their surprise and continued their focus on the mana in the air.

"You can feel the mana now in your body, right? That means you can now start meditating and use your mana now. Just do the same as what you did earlier but this time, try to control the flow of the "water" in your body. Make it bend to your will, move it around, or just let it flow straight to the pool normally. Increase the flow and make the body of water in front of you increase in size."

Pandora nodded and she started her meditation. I also started my meditation as well after teaching Pandora. I can't afford to miss this chance to increase my mastery in my own element. I have to practice it and increase my efficiency in using it.

As I meditate, the elementals started to move on every one that is meditating. The elements that are associated with everyone are starting to gather around. However, I didn't focus on them and focused on myself. The elementals having their presence around me is increasing the magic power I am accumulating. The sparks of the electricity are now flowing all over me and even though I am in my consciousness of where my mana is, the electric power is flowing on my body. It's not rejecting it and instead, it is combining itself quite well.

Soon, the two elves stopped absorbing mana in the air and the two recovered their lost mana. We also stopped meditating as well as the mana in the surroundings has returned to normal. I have increased the mastery of my magic power and control of electricity, as well as the expansion of my maximum mana capacity.

Renatta helped the two as their body still pretty weak and after recovering the mana in their body, they have to make sure that the mana is properly circulating on their bodies as well.

Renatta beckoned Pixie and after talking to her, she immediately relayed what she needed to say.

"They have to regulate their mana once more to fully recover so they will be returning to their room and rest themselves so that the mana they have absorbed does not go berserk."

"Yeah, they should. Absorbing so much mana would just make them reject it if they don't regulate it properly. Escort them back to their rooms and make sure they are comfortable."

The two elves bowed for a bit, showing signs of gratitude to me before they got escorted by Renatta. Although they don't need to be escorted anymore as they no longer walk like a limp, Renatta chooses to help them get back still as a gesture.

Pandora and Riko also went down with them as well now that the mana around has finally dispersed, leaving Riko and me watching the remaining elementals fly around while the mana that was gathered is slowly fading.

"I don't know if you have noticed it Bladeheart. But don't you think the real world and Alternate World are connected in some way other than being a game? Don't you ever suspect it?" Riko ponders on that question I am surprised she managed to reach that conclusion despite Riko being a bit slow at times.

"Yes. I believe it's not just connected as a game. Perhaps it is another dimension. After all..."

I then pulled the Versatile Weapon out in thin air and Riko who recognize the weapon does not forget what it was like.

"The Versatile Weapon? Oh yeah, I remember now, You summoned it before in the past during that hostage-taking stuff and the robbery too. I thought it was some strange power but perhaps Earth was indeed part of the game as well?"

I can only smile on that speculation. After all, despite this valid connections, there is no way this is enough to call an evidence that the world of Alternate World game, is another dimension connected to Earth where magic and monsters exist.
