Chapter 5 - Chapter 5- Invention

*Breathing slowly.

'Okay, breathe slowly and feel the mana absorbed. Let the mana guide it into the heart and shape it into a circle.'

"Uhhgg..."

This is it now.

[Warning: your body is about to break because of massive flow of mana.] [Currently in the critical situation] [The system detects the user creating a new skill.] [Would you like to use plausibility to enhance the success? Y/N].

"What? It's speaking to me telepathically? It can make me choose if I use plausibility to enhance the success of the circle. Maybe if I use the plausibility, I can decrease the restriction of the circle.

"YES"

The mana in the body slowly calms down.

A glowing white circle is on my heart, clearly visible to the naked eye.

"Ha.ha.ha.ha."

*Breathing uncontrollably.

"I-I did it, haha. Hahaha."

"Okay, calm down; let's try it first."

And when I look to the window, it's already night.

"....."

"It's already night; I didn't even realize it. Well then, I'm going to rest."

I fell asleep so hard that it was already noon when I woke up.

"It's already noon. Crap, I didn't even get to try my circle."

I rush to the Guild hall running and decide to get a hard quest.

"Hmmm… investigate missing children."

After accepting the quest, I quickly located the person who posted the quest and pointed to the city of Lord of Ardan from the Lionhart kingdom.

"Hello, I'm an adventurer who got your quest. I would like to ask some questions and get information related to the missing children incident that you posted."

The city lord let me come in and answered all my questions and told me all the information he knew.

'Hmmm…the children disappeared mysteriously, and always after disappearing, they look like they're not themselves and have an agitated reaction.'

I go to the place of disappearance where the children were last seen.

"What the—this is mana. This means a mage is somehow related to this incident."

I scan the mana and it quickly reveals the location of the owner of the man.

As I followed the mana, it led to a deserted mansion. I quickly scanned the surroundings and quietly went to the main door.

*Door opening.

"Hmmm…there's nothing in here."

I roam the mansion to find any clues, but nothing comes out when suddenly I notice something suspicious about the tiles; the tiles are a lot bigger.

I then try to pull the floor and see an underground. I tell Gran to guard the entrance, and I continue to search the underground when suddenly I hear a scream.

"*Ahhhhh."

I look around to find where it comes from.

I found the source of the scream, slowly approached it, and saw two mages experimenting on a child when suddenly.

*Boom.

A loud explosion happened enough to get the attention of the mages.

I quickly go to the entrance and resurface when I see Gran bloodied, fighting a white-hooded mage.

'Shit, Gran is in danger.'

I quickly cast a spell targeting the white-hooded mage.

"Doom."

The white hooded mage quickly dodged it and cast a counterattack, but it failed to do so. As it happened, I quickly regrouped with Gran and tried to protect it.

"I smiled and said."

"Hoo, it looks like it's time to try my newly invented skill."
