"Hi," Evan answered briefly and walked past the girl.
Sana followed him and kept talking: "Wait! What's the matter with you? It feels like you're dying."
Without stopping, Evan replied, "I just got in a fight in the arena with a strong opponent. I missed a few punches and lost, that's all. What do you care?"
"You say that's a few punches ?!" Sana said indignantly.
Evan really was in awful condition. Blood was dripping from the corners of his mouth, and his broken arm dangled like a sack of bones. Evan wrinkled with every step, which clearly indicated that his entire body was covered in numerous bruises.
Unlike Evan, Sana rarely got into fights. Of course, Evan wasn't that kind of person either, but it could be hardly believed given recent events.
"And where are you going with such wounds?" Said the girl.
Evan waved a hand and said: "To the infirmary, don't you see? Don't bother me! Go, where you're going."
Sana frowned at that rude reply, nevertheless kept following him.
As Evan walked to the infirmary for the next few minutes, she was beside him, constantly saying something. Evan tried to swat her away like an annoying fly, but he couldn't do anything. He already wanted to get to the infirmary as soon as possible, not just to heal his wounds but to have some peace and quiet finally.
Click.
<Finally>. Thought Evan as he opened the door to one of the infirmaries. He wanted to disengage himself from Sana and breathe a sigh of relief, but...
Before he could fully open the door, Sana was the first to burst in and immediately began saying something to the magician in charge of the infirmary. She pointed at the wounded Evan, staring at him with a strange look.
<Maybe I shouldn't have gone to that clearing then... I was cured then, but I'm probably going to die now ...>. Evan thought to himself as he watched this scene.
A few minutes later, Sana came to Evan and gave him a pill and a potion.
"This pill will heal your bones, and the potion will greatly speed up your regeneration," Sana said seriously.
Evan nodded and quickly swallowed the pill and the potion. It was a pretty expensive medication so that Evan would be completely healed in a few hours.
Evan and Sana spent the next half hour talking about various topics. Evan wasn't particularly in the mood to talk to anyone, but he couldn't help it.
"I'm off, and You don't need to thank me for my help. It's my duty as your senior!" Sana said proudly and quickly left the room.
Evan grinned and just waited for his wounds to fully heal. All the while, Evan thought about what had happened to him lately. He remembered the events in the "Half-Dead Forest," as well as his fight with Freya. Those had been dangerous moments in his life, but they had helped him move on.
...
A few hours later, Evan left the infirmary. His wounds were completely healed, and his arm was fine. In that time, the third chain around his "Warp" had stopped shaking, but Evan wasn't worried that he'd missed the moment. He distinctly felt that all it took was one small impulse, and the chain would shatter.
Evan had initially wanted to go to the rooms of "Creation" near the arena, but Evan decided there was a much better option.
The Academy of Magic - "The Last Moon" wasn't one big building, and it was a complex of different structures that each had their function, like a library. It was not in the main building of the Academy but was part of it.
In addition to the library, one of which Evan was now heading to. There were a considerable number of "Creation" rooms of varying quality. The similar rooms next to the arena were usually just for restoring mana before a fight, and they weren't designed for long-term "Creation."
Evan pondered how long it would take him to condense the right amount of "Void Liquid" drops. The last time Evan had been in the library, he had just as quickly gone over the information regarding "Warp" color and mana accumulation rate.
During the last fights, Evan began to suspect that his mana accumulation rate was higher than other magicians. Information about the "Warp" color was publicly available, so Evan quickly found the right book. That was also when he'd found out that Zak had been lying to him about his condensation rate.
Evan didn't hold a grudge against Zak, and in fact, he thought Zak had done the right thing. Evan certainly wouldn't be a self-righteous fool because of his unusual "Warp," but any other person might very well be, and it could have harmed his future progress.
In Evan's case, it made no difference. He had already known that his "Warp" was different from the other magicians` '"Warp." And that wasn't very surprising, considering the way Evan had got his talent for magic. Moreover, Evan now knew that his mana accumulation rate was higher than the others.
"Here," Evan muttered as he walked into the colossal building.
Evan walked over to a special board with a list of all the rooms and began to choose the right one. There was a number next to the name of the room. Evan didn't know what it meant, but then he stumbled across the explanation on the board itself. "1" meant that in this room, a magician with a white "Warp" could condense one drop of "Void Liquid" per day. That was exactly twice as fast as usual.
If a magician with white "Warp" would create in a room "2", his speed would equal that of a magician with purple "Warp," and those were not the best rooms yet.
Evan had 9.500 "Moon Coins" at the moment, but that wasn't enough money to rent one of the best rooms, even for one day.
<I thought at first that 9.500 was quite a lot of money, but it seems to be a drop in the bucket compared to what fourth rank students earn>. Evan thought and chose the room.
Compared to most of the other options, he chose a relatively expensive one, but...
<9,000 for one month... that's not prices, that's some fucked up shit ...>.
Thought Evan and headed to his room number - "3". A magician with a white "Warp" could condense three drops of "Void Liquid" in a day in this room. The average magician with a purple "Warp" -12 drops. As for Evan - 36.
< I'm about to break through my last "Barrier," which means I'll need to condense another 667 drops to reach 1000 and finally get to the next level ...>.
Evan thought and walked into the room. It was similar to the one near the arena but much more extensive. The mana crystals were brighter and more intense, with a vast amount of mana in them.
Evan sat down in the middle of the room, concentrated, and his crimson "Warp" spun.
