Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel-Chapter 22 Mana Harmonisation

The long range attack which Zick just learned was called piercing mana slice. It is one of the techniques which is famous throughout the continent. This skill can only be used by people who are at or higher than the middle rank knight stage.

So Zick had to wait to become a middle rank knight to start using it. Now that he learnt it, he found a lot of disadvantages in it.

If he tried to use it in full force, he would run out of mana by just using it for 9 to 10 times.

And there was also the problem of his sword not being able to handle the mana. But this could be alleviated by buying a better sword so he wasn't worried about it.

It is possible to not use it in full force and just use as little as possible. By doing this he could use it for a long time, but there were disadvantages in doing this too, it would decrease its potency, speed and strength to a large degree.

With all these disadvantages, Zick found this technique to be highly unsatisfactory. The only way to alleviate all these disadvantages was by becoming a high rank knight. But he didn't see himself becoming a high rank knight any time soon.

There were a lot of books within his space ring for learning different skills but while doing it there were chances of harming his surroundings or that it would take a long time to learn it.

With all this factor taken into consideration, Zick just decided to leave the garden. There was only one technique that he could start learning right at the moment.

Zick planned on learning it in his room; this technique didn't harm the surrounding at all.

While walking towards his room, he thought about the book-(Using elemental with a sword)

The first step to use it is to first learn which elements you have affinity with. Zick still wanted to check if he had any affinity with any of the elements.

It was not possible to check his affinity right at the moment as a magic device is needed for it.

Reaching in front of his room, he saw Butler Von standing in front of the door with a stoic expression.

Feeling Zick's presence, Butler Von bowed towards him.

Still with a cat in his hand, Zick started speaking to Butler Von.

"So? What happened to the others? "

"All the knights are staying in a temporary residence provided by the Garcia family." ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

After knowing what he wanted to, Zick sent Butler Von away and entered his room. The smile on his face was almost going to vanish but remembering the cat's existence he maintained it.

"I really want to ask this... don't you ever get tired of smiling"

"Of course no"

Zick answered curtly not interested in talking any further with it.

Jumping out of his hand, the cat slept above his bed. Zick also sat upon the bed and took out a book from his space ring.

The book title is-(harmonisation with mana)

This technique increases the control, sense and the strength of the body to a certain level depending upon the quality of the mana. This would also increase his proficiency in using mana to a large degree.

The only disadvantage of this technique was that it took a long time to master it. But Zick wasn't worried about it all, he was still a 10 year old kid which means there is still a lot of time for him to learn it.

Reading the book for a while, he understood it theoretically but he knew that doing it practically was the hardest part.

Not wasting his time, Zick started training with the technique. The difficulty of using it was very high. Unlike just controlling the mana to strengthen yourself, here his control over mana had to be very subtle. Not only that, he had to do it all over his body at once.

Maintaining it for a long time was even harder.

After a person ranks up, their mana quality also increases with it. When the mana quality increases, it strengthens the body accordingly through the mana nerves all over the body.

The mana harmonisation skill works almost like a sixth sense.

And now Zick had to train intensively to master this sixth sense.

Three days passed by quickly, while he kept training to use mana harmonisation. In this time, he would only leave to eat food prepared by the servant or he would talk to the cat sometimes.

The cat was surprised at Zick's behaviour.

'What's with this workaholic bastard....he does nothing but keep training the whole time like a mad man'

Zick ignored the black cat most of the time and only talked to it when he was curious about something.

All the servants of the Garcia family appeared busy as they were preparing to hold the ceremonial party in the estate.

The estate had become a little crowded now that guests started arriving.

It is still in the middle of the day. It was still the summer season so the climate is in its optimal setting.

Zick was right at the moment, sitting in the round gazebo in the garden and training to increase his mana. The cat sat besides him yawning occasionally.

The ceremonial party would start at noon which led to Zick having nothing to do again.

"hey"

The cat called Zick by tapping on his leg with its paw.

"You know? I really wanted to ask you. Do you really need my protection"

The cat was really confused as to why Zick had asked it to protect him. It had been with him for a while so it knew that he was someone with a strong social standing. All the people who met him would treat him respectfully.

'why does he need my protection? '

Zick didn't know how he should respond to this question, he had asked for its protection just Because of his Cautiousness and it was easy to get.

"of course I need your protection"

Zick wasn't worried about the cat not protecting him at all, it had already formed a contract with him.

A contract is very important for all the mythical beast and the spirits. Once it has been formed there is no other way to break the contract.

Once anyone breaks a contract their soul will be destroyed without exception.

The cat looked at Zick for a second and then started sleeping again.

Zick went back to his room after a few hours with the cat. The ceremonial party would start in an hour or two. Getting in his room, he took out a formal aristocratic dress and started wearing it.

Usually there would always be a servant to change a noble dress but the moment Noah had became Zick he had never let any maid change his dress.

Wearing the black jacket, Zick, looked at himself in the mirror to make sure that there wasn't anything out of place.

'With my black hair most of the people wont notice that I am from Melvix family.....this will help in not gathering attention'

Zick just wanted to finish his stay here and go back to the Melvix estate.

The ash-grey hair of the Melvix family is like a symbol of their identity. Having black hair had already made people prejudiced against him. But Zick wasn't planning on solving this prejudice at all.

"Meow~"

Looking at Zick looking at himself in the mirror with a smile for so long made the cat meow towards him.

"What happened?"

"How much time are you planning on staring at yourself?"

"Well let's get going then"

Fixing his collars, Zick picked up the cat and put it above his shoulder. Even though becoming a knight had increased his speed of growth in the end he is still a 10 year old kid.

His shoulders were still too small for the cat to sit at. which led to it hanging in there like a dead body.

"Just hold me in your hands"

"I can't do that, I will need to greet people at the party"

".....sigh..."

Sighing exaggeratedly, the cat jumped down and started walking besides Zick.

He reached the party hall after walking for 10 minutes. When the entrance entered his view, he started walking in a more refined manner.

But when he was about to reach the entrance of the party hall he heard a voice calling to him from behind.

"hoho! it really is rare seeing talent like yours these days!"

An old man with a white robe appeared in his view when he turned back, looking at the symbol of the sun god temple etched in it he was surprised. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m

Zick was also surprised by another thing-

'I couldn't sense his presence at all....'

He wasn't able sense this old man's presence at all until he started talking.

"No need to be on guard, my name is Jerel westrick. I am a bishop of the sun god church"

What.....

'the demon slaughterer.....?'
