Chapter 15 - My New Toys: Part Three

[Report. ERROR CODE DETECTED! Subject is unable to absorb the Mana Crystal.]

"Wha... What!?" A baffled expression garmented my face as an 'Error Code' message appeared infront of me from basically nowhere. "What the hell just...why didn't it-" Before even getting the chance to try and figure out what was happening, another message popped up.

[E-Rank Skill Cultivator is still too weak to be able to absorb Mana Crystals. Cultivator must reach D-Rank in order to absorb Mana Crystals.]

"You gotta be shittin' me!" I exclaimed. "How am I supposed to do that right now, seriously!? Grr! Am I gonna have to wait until I enter another Dungeon so I can level up?....hmhh....no but wait...if Cultivator is still too weak to absorb Mana Crystals because it's E-Rank, then would two E-Rank Skills do the trick? All l did before was activate Cultivator but if I activated both itand Astral Unification then...won't it make a difference? Yeah! That's it, that's what I need to do. I'll add in Bladework too to increase my Intelligence Stat which will increase my Mana manipulation efficiency."

So I did just that, Cultivator was already active so I activated Bladework and Astral Unification. I could feel energy surging within me. Then a thought crossed my mind.

"Wait, what if.... Activate Soul-Piercing Eyes. Whoa! I knew it!"

My eyes continuously shone a small green light.

Using four Skills at once took a bit of a toll since my Mana Capacity was still low but the payoff was huge.

"Now then, make sure to keep Cultivator in charge, the others just assist. Bladework will increase my Intelligence Stat, Soul-Piercing Eyes will stack up on tha by heightening my senses, most of all, my sight and Mana sensitivity then Astral Unification will synchronise all these Skills with one another. Now, absorb...using my arms as a pathway, I'll carefully gather all the Mana in this crystal to my newly formed Dantian..."

[Report. Success! The E-Rank Mana Crystal has been successfully absorbed.]

[Mana Capacity gained from the E-Rank Mana Crystal: 5.]

"Hallelujah! It worked!"

The Mana Crystal then turned to dust afterwards, that surrounded the area, illuminating the room and leaving a sweet fragrance as it disappeared. Mana generated *from* it surrounded my body and then gathered slowly on to my stomach as it permeated through. The absorption was complete.

[Report. Advancements in the Subject's overall Warrior info have been detected as a result of recent actions.]

"Hello! more rewards? Can't say no to that."

[Now calculating advancements...]

Cultivator's Sub-Skill Astral Unification has advanced from E-Rank to D-Rank. Subject has also gained a new Sub-Skill for the Cultivator Skill known as Fury of Dantian.]

"Oh yeah, now we're talking!"

"I was able to absorb the Mana Crystal and even gained a new Skill made after my Dantian. Seems like from now on, I'll need to use five Skill instead of four to absorb Mana Crystals which will give me extra Mana Capacity. So tasking! But still, this is good. Now then, since I'll only be selling the D-Rank Mana Crystal. I might as well absorb all the other Mana Crystals. Still though, a little over six-hundred Mana Crystals isn't what I expected my total to be. I thought it'd be more, at least a little over seven-hundred. Now that I think about it, I don't remember collecting the Mana Crystals of the second Werehyena Extermination Quest. I was too focused on the Cold Iron at the time and forgot all about them. What a waste, there were a lot of them too, I think around ninety or so... Welp, no use fretting over it. I still got six-hundred and fifty-seven so it's not a total loss. Time to absorb."
