I Reincarnated As A Stick

Chapter 132: Dane’s Student

While Aurus and Kevin were talking inside a white space who knows where it has been formed, their topic being about the Spirit Clone that Aurus was about to craft, a certain Rank 4 High Mage’s student was doing something.

XXXX Continent, Arcana Tower.

Hum…hum…

Within a secluded room, a certain Rank 4 High Mage’s student sat cross-legged on the room’s floor with their eyes closed, attuning their body to the multiple mana stones embedded on the walls of said room.

This student was none other than Erea [1], Dane’s only student that had been following her teacher’s words to a T.

At the moment, she was circulating her mana all throughout her body as she gradually absorbed the mana from the embedded mana stones, allowing her to temper her own mana.

As she did this, her body glowed a faint light blue. Not long after, this would then change to a faint light red…then a faint light green…then a faint light brown.

The reason why Erea was accepted by Dane as his only student was because of her elemental affinity, which was definitely hard to come across as people only had one elemental affinity at most. She, on the other hand, had four.

Not only that, her aptitude as a mage was also above average as she could grasp the mechanics of magic and the mastery of magic spells at a speed greater than normal mages.

“Huuu…” Eventually, Erea opened her eyes as she let out a long sigh of relief, faint black air coming out of her mouth.

Just as she opened her eyes, the embedded mana stones on the wall of the secluded room she was in gradually lost their luster before turning into normal rocks in terms of appearance.

Seeing this phenomenon happen, Erea could not help but lightly smile as she stood up and lightly stretched her body. “Ahh…just in time before my time for the room was up.”

After stretching her body, she then walked out of the secluded room she was in and started to walk towards the lower floors of the Arcana Tower, far lower than her current floor. As to why, she was going to obtain a Lower Level 1 spell, just like what Dane said.

The reason as to why Erea was only going to grab a Lower Level 1 spell right now was because she had solely focused on upgrading her attributes and her maximum mana capacity. She had a hunch that it would be easier for her to master the spell once she had a high enough Intelligence stat to do just that.

While she was walking down the stairs of the Arcana Tower to head towards the spellbook marketplace, an ever familiar sound to her resounded inside her head, prompting her to stop walking and move by the outer side of the stairs, near the windows.

Ding!

“Eh?” Erea could not help but become confused as to where this sound came from.

“Why did the system send me a notification?”

Turns out, she was not confused, she was just surprised that her system sent out a notification at this time.

Since the system sent less and less notifications after she had grown to a considerable level, she had a feeling that the notification she got had something to do related to her class.

She commanded the system to open up the latest notification she received in her mind, allowing her to see a holographic screen appear in front of her face not even an instant later.

‘You have met the requirements needed to transition to a higher class. Would you like to do so?’

“I had a feeling the system would ask me this,” Erea could not help but mutter to herself amidst the hustle and bustle occurring in the stairs of the Arcana Tower. She thought about the question for a bit, before responding with a “No.” Of course, she did this in her mind to not attract other people’s attention.

Ding!

‘You can always opt to transition to a higher class at any time. Once the user obtains a special skill or experience anything special, the user can even transition to a higher class that wields stronger power.’

“Well ain’t that a given.” Erea could not help but laugh inwardly at the obviousness of the system. Eventually, her eyes turned serious as she muttered, “Since the system said so, I guess that NPC…no…teacher, was correct about me obtaining a special class once I do what he says.”

“Although that would hinder me from obtaining Godhood faster, that ain’t a problem,” Erea continued to talk to herself as she processed her thoughts. “If it means that I could become a stronger Goddess in the end, a bit of time wasted isn’t anything wrong.”

After getting her thoughts straight, Erea then took a deep breath before continuing to walk down the Arcana Tower as normal, heading towards the spellbook marketplace just like she planned to.

As she continued to walk down, Erea could not help but let her thoughts fly everywhere.

‘It’s been a few months since I’ve arrived in this world. Not only that, I was given an Animate body instead of an Inanimate one, unlike the game I used to play. But for some reason, the system I received was the same as the one in the game. Are the heavens merciful or merciless for giving me an Animate body?”

Of course, the game she was thinking about was none other than Infinite Stick Evolution, an MMORPG that could be said to be made for masochists. Before moving onto her current life, she had been a renowned Goddess in the game with a power rank of 7, mostly known by players as the Goddess of Ruination.

But all of a sudden, a certain truck specialized in allowing people to reincarnate struck her as she was walking across the pedestrian lane, sending her onto the six paths and letting her arrive into the world of Erudinia, equipped with a system given by who knows who and a wide knowledge base of the world she was in.

Her only regret though was that she was not given an Inanimate body at the start, as for her, having an Inanimate body at the start would allow her to soar even higher than starting out with an Animate body.

Although she regretted it, she didn’t really regret it much as she knew she would eventually get back to her previous standing in the game. It’s just that it was not a game anymore and it was now her life.

…

After ten minutes or so, she had finally arrived at the marketplace, easily making her way through the various spellbook stalls as she had been to this place multiple times. It only took her a while to arrive at a spellbook stall that she was very familiar with. It was one of the stalls she frequented once she needed Level 0 Spells back then of the Water element.

Just as she arrived in front of the stall, she hastily acquired the attention of the stall owner thanks to the color of her hair. With the stall owner’s attention grabbed, the stall owner could not help but look at Erea and chuckle as she said, “If it isn’t Erea! How’s it going? Have you transitioned to a higher class yet?”

Hearing the stall owner’s voice, Erea could not help but promptly look at her and reply with a smile, “It’s been going well. I haven’t transitioned yet, but I’m very sure that I will do so very soon. If that happens Artella, I’ll definitely treat you to a meal!”

“You’ll have to keep that promise, okay?” Artella, the stall owner, laughed with glee at Erea’s reponse. Eventually, her expression turned into that of someone doing business. “So, what brings you here? You know very well that I only sell Water-based items and spells. Knowing you…are you needing a Lower Level 1 Spell?”

“Yep.” Erea nodded with a smile, agreeing with what she said.

“If that’s the case, you’re just in time!” Artella lightly chuckled as she turned around and rummaged through the bags she had hanging behind her. Eventually, she retrieved a faint blue spellbook from one of the bags and placed it on the stall counter.

“I got here a Lower Level 1 Water Spell, name’s Aqua Sphere. It can attack and defend, as well as change shape. Price is 35 contribution points. Want it?”

“Can’t you do 25?” Hearing the price of the spellbook, Erea’s first decision was to haggle over the price. “We’ve known for a decently long time. I’ve even treated you to a meal here and there! Can’t you give your friend a discount?”

“Erea, this spellbook ain’t cheap, just so you know. Well… it’s cheap…but not 25 points cheap. 30 points and I’ll part ways with it.” Of course, Artella remembered what she had done with her, pondering over it for a bit before deciding to give her a discount.

“Deal!” Since the price was cut, Erea didn’t decide to haggle any further as she knew that Artella had to make at least a bit of profit.

After settling the transaction and obtaining the spellbook, Erea headed towards the higher floors of the Arcana Tower, heading towards her own secluded training room.

As she walked up the stairs, she could not help but grip the spellbook she bought tightly as multiple plans formed in her mind.

“Once I learn this skill and do what teacher says, I’ll eventually obtain a stronger Rank 3 Class. Once that happens, if my thoughts are correct, I’ll have to learn a lot of Lower Level 1 Spells and perhaps some Higher Level 1 Spells.”

“I can’t wait for my combat power to become stronger. Once that happens, I can finally do the plans I had formulated back then!”
