The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 86: Void Training 2 [1]

"Since you already know the subject of the lesson from the sheet, let's not waste time and begin." Daniel started in his usual bored tone.

The trio nodded.

"Let's start with layering first."

"As you all know, mana is the main energy that we use to perform magic. We breathe it and store it in our mana pathways that exist in our bodies."

Nod.

"The clover mark that is present on a specific part of an individual's body acts like a convertor. It converts the raw mana present in your body into elemental mana of the attribute that you have an affinity with."

They nodded again.

"That elemental mana can then be utilized in two different ways." He raised two fingers.

"One, which is the normal way, you form the respective element or manipulate it. For example, if you have fire maker type element, that elemental mana is then transformed into a fire. And if you have a manipulative type element, that mana is used to manipulate the respective element around you." He closed one finger.

They affirmed with a bob of their heads.

It was basic knowledge till now.

"But there's another way. The second way. And that is to layer a respective part of your body with the elemental mana." He closed his second finger.

Their eyes widened. They didn't know about this fact.

Elizabeth wasn't as surprised as them but it was expected.

She probably knew this from her sister or because of being a royal.

"To showcase what I mean, let me demonstrate."

Daniel moved to a tree and raised both of his arms.

In the next moment, both of his arms were covered in a metallic gray hue.

"This hue that you see right now is sound elemental mana."

"Now the first way to use this mana is..." He clapped his hands and a soundwave passed through the area in the next moment, completely destroying a few trees in the process.

"This was the basic way as you all know. I converted the elemental mana into sound." He remarked before moving to another tree.

Their eyes followed.

"Now here, I will not transform the elemental mana into sound. At least not yet." He said before punching the tree with his coated punch.

Despite how lazily he punched the tree, a boom resounded in the air as a large gaping hole was left in the tree.

The spot where he punched and the area around it was completely eradicated.

Their expressions morphed into shock, not knowing what happened.

Daniel smiled gently.

"A normal punch and a mana-coated punch are different. Just coating your punch with elemental mana would enhance its strength and durability. But what I did here was use both methods at the same time." He pointed at the hole.

Amon and Michael tilted their heads, not understanding what happened.

But Elizabeth nodded with a frown on her face, raising her hand.

"Oh, Elizabeth. You know what I did, please go ahead." He clapped his hands.

His previous bored demeanor was nowhere to be seen.

He's putting up an act, Amon thought.

His eyes traveled to the corner to also see Elizabeth sporting a frown.

'She notices as well huh...'

"At first, your mana-coated punch connected normally with the tree making a small impact, but not nearly enough to destroy it. But, what you did was that as soon as the fist connected, you utilized the collision to transform the mana into sound, making a concentrated soundwave erupt from your fist." She explained thoroughly.

Daniel's smile widened. He clapped loudly.

"Bravo. You are absolutely correct."

"Now before you all start practicing this. Remember that your elements are always what they are in real life."

All three of them tilted their head at the question.

"What I mean here is..." He used two fingers to do a flick.

A loud sound erupted in the air.

"Though I may have used mana here, the end product was still sound, which exists around us in real life. The fire you create Michael is no different than the fire you see in real life. The

same goes for Blood and Ice." He explained.

Amon's mouth contorted into an 'o' shape.

"What you are doing by using mana is nothing but changing the element's properties. For fire, you change its size, temperature, or intensity using mana, that's all. An icicle made using mana and one made from water are both the same, you just alter their properties."

"I see. But why are you telling us all this professor?" Amon asked, trying to find any ulterior motives.

"It's because I want you to remember that you can utilize the nature of the elements to your advantage. If you have a water element, you need to remember that it can be taken down or it is effective against other things by thinking of its real-life applications. Most people tend to forget this."

All three of them nodded.

"I see." Michael voiced.

Daniel clapped then.

"Well, that's enough theory for now. Choose your trees and start practicing what I have taught you all. Since time is short for today, you will only practice for 1 hour and we will pick up the pace from tomorrow."

Nodding, all three of them picked a tree and started practicing the mana layering.

Amon came out of the training grounds an hour later along with Michael.

If he had to be honest, for the whole hour, he had done nothing.

He was too concentrated on keeping an eye on Daniel along with Zephyra.

Even the smallest trace of miasma could prove dangerous in the long run.

He didn't plan to do this initially but he had done so because of the plotline change.

In the novel, the first lesson had been all about introductions and trying to familiarize himself with the three cadets.

But now that he was involved, Daniel actually taught them and didn't even try to do anything

in the whole lesson.

'Did he not do the introductions cause he already had an encounter with each of us?' Amon

questioned.

It was plausible.

Considering that the plotline had already been changed by his meeting all three of them, it made sense that there were no introductions.

The introductions in the novel were also the first interaction of Michael and Elizabeth, which

was ruined now.

Because of that, he had planned to make Michael and Elizabeth meet by himself after the class

ended.

But unfortunately, she had to leave early because of an urgent call from Alice on her band.

Well, all he could do was notice how the future lessons would be carried out.

"Well, I'll see ya tomorrow." Amon bid farewell to Michael who raised his hand back.

"Yup, meet you in class." Then, he left.

The future was uncertain because of all these plotline changes now.

He ruffled his hair in frustration.

'Fuck it....I don't even know if the battle would now carry out like how it was written in the

novel.'

He needed to be prepared for it.

He needed to get stronger.

And the best way for that right now was....

[Void Training].

'I'll do it today.' Amon concluded.
