Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Miracle Core, Class, and Celebration

The room where he is in, was the most luxurious place he ever saw or gone too. There were just ornaments, ribbons, and decorations everywhere. He saw several paintings that seemed so lifelike and unreal, he guessed it's probably reinforced with some kind of magic. Granted, Rio was a poor joe in his last life so a view of noble proportions is bound to suprise him.

As awe-struck he was, he doesnt want to be seen as a country bumpkin, so he quelled the suprise and awe in his expression. He looked around in the room, and at the corner he saw Samantha.

She looked like a princess incarnate, is because she is a noble. He forgot, or simply, the situation was too sudden that he didnt remember her. She appeared around the middle contents of the novel. She was the eldest sister of the current heir of Desmon Family.

Her story is quite tragic to say the least. She was originally going to be the heir of the Desmon, however when results of her potential were out, she was in fact untalented. In the end, her little brother was chosen as the heir. She didn't hate that she got replaced by her brother. She hated the fact that her existence was a failure. She set her sights on teaching, and there she landed on Volund Academy because of her capabilities and background.

She was a minor character in the novel, and often minor characters either get forgotten or die. At the battle of the Second Titan, Titanmachia, she died valiantly protecting the school.

As for Rio's opinion, well he might not know her, but one thing is for sure. He would try to save her. Keyword, try. Hell, he didnt even know if he can do anything againts this world full of magical beings. He would focus on trying to sustain and improve himself first, before thinking of helping anybody. Granted, the only reason he wanted to help her is because he found her story relatable and tragic, as long as it doesnt cost him something he would help. He was no saint afterall.

As for the plot? The Second Titan, Titanmachia is still far away from the current events. And of course he will interfere, even if he wants it or not, the safety of the world correlates to his safety.

Putting that aside, he had been staring at her for a while. It was good she didn’t notice, or else it would’ve been weird and left a bad impression. Then again, with that amount of people surrounding her it's not like she would notice him staring at her.

It was cheery in the room, full of noise as many people talked to each other. And then a loud clap echoed in the room. Rio stared at the doorway at the front, there was a man. The man's appeareance silenced the room, and Rio didnt know why.

The man was intimidating, his expression was tense and stern. His face was mature, not old nor young. His eyes deep black, as he wore a monocle in his left eye. His ashen long gray hair tied into a ponytail in his back. He walked silently with his hands at the back, his formal wear showing his refined stature.

He seemed important, if those bodyguards or bulky built men standing by his side are anything to go by. The man stopped upfront, and all guest, teachers alike stared in respect.

“This event is a celebration for a new start of our academy,” The man spoke, his words soft yet his face remained unchanged, ever tense and serious, “Afterwards is the start of the year. A new year for teachers and students alike.”

As he spoke, a man approached. The man was blonde, his face was quite remarkable, but when Rio stared he felt as if the man's face was illusionary. The blonde man bowed before speaking, “It is truly unfortunate, Esteemed Director Guinevere. Our guild leader couldnt come over due to dire matters.”

“I see,” Guinevere said as he continued, “I understand, your guild's matter is indeed dire, if what I heard holds any value.”

“Thank you for your magnimous understanding, Esteemed Director Guinevere,” The blonde man simply held a casual smile and bowed, as if his head suddenly sprouted a memory, he continued “Ah, I almost forgot. Our guild, Heavenspawn, would like to invite your esteemed self some day,”

Guinevere simply nodded, and the blonde man noting the response left to go back in his group.

Rio understood why people showed such respect towards the man. He was famed, in the novel, too. He is Guinevere, The Man of Magic, The Director of Volund Academy. His titles aren't for show, they are direct evidence of his capabilities. Guinevere by birth, is chosen. He was born with boundless talent, and achieved grand things, later in life he made Volund Academy.

He also noted the guild Heavenspawn. He barely remembered the guilds, however, Heavenspawn is a fairly important guild. If guild rankings are anything to go by, they are Top 3 in the whole world. Heavenspawn, as it's name indicates, is a group of individuals who are talented at a certain aspect. Whether it be, Occult, Alchemy, Architecture, Martial Arts, or anything. It's been said that Director Guinevere has a hand over it's creation.

After that little conversation, the celebration continued without a hitch. Rio eyed the several people approaching other individuals. He knew they were some of the guest that were trying to make connections. If he had to guess, they were from various guilds.

Rio finally arrived at the room. He wandered around the halls for a long time. He got lost. The school is unsuprisingly gigantic on the inside, well it was a good thing he encountered a fellow teacher during his ‘travels’, which the teacher in question helped him find the way to the private training room.

There were two types of training room in the academy, one which is public. The other which is private. The public is free for all people inside the academy, it is mostly used for class activities and exams. The private training room is a special room given to every student and teacher, it is their own personal limited training room.

Rio held the white badge in his hand, it was silver white, having the mark of a staff, symbolizing magic or sorcery. It indicated the path the former ‘Rio Salem’ took, the path of magic. As for Rio himself, he had plans on what to do with his powers, he decided he won't limit himself to one class.

If others wouldve heard his thoughts they would’ve find him crazy and stupid. Focusing on one class is already time consuming enough, but also, it was impossible. When magic first entered the body of mankind, people discovered there was a secret organ in the body. It was an independent organ. Extensive research shows that it could only be seen by using magic. It's appearance was a transparent white cube.

Since it was only discovered by magic, it's purpose should also be related to magic. With that thought process, geniuses of the past experimented countless times with magic and finally arriving at a result.

The transparent cube was a container and a purifier of magic. Magic in essence is toxic and abnormal energy if demonic beast are used as an example. The transparent cube, also known as < Miracle Core >, is able to contain magical energy and purify it, enabling pure magical energy spread to the body of a person.

While magic is inherently toxic, it is also an energy or source of power. The spread of pure magical energy in the body made the bodies and organs of people stronger and better. After enough magical energy is contained in the < Miracle Core > ascendance was the next option.

Ascendance was later discovered as the solution to fix the problem of <<Miracle Cores>>. By exploding the <Miracle Core> and recreating them to be a bigger core at the same time, they create an event where the body experiences an intense absorbtion of magical energy and creating a bigger cube from before. Albeit it was a dangerous process, but the benefits were much more in the end. It was called Ascension for the fact it strengthens a person to multiple levels.

However, the reason using two classes or more is impossible is because there is only one < Miracle Core > in a body. Before ascendance, one is able to choose a class. It was optional, however, people who don't choose a class don't reach far and inferior to those who choose classes.

By picking a class, a person's < Miracle Invoker > is strengthened and upgraded to be compatible with the said class, hence when picking the

[Martial Artist] class the < Miracle Core > changes the color from white to red, picking [Sorcery] class changes the color from white to blue, picking the [Occult] changes white to purple.

Since by effect on picking a class the < Miracle Core > is changed, other classes skills are much harder and time-consuming to use. It is not impossible to use other classes skills, however it will be much harder and less effective, so people often just learn the basic skills of other classes and focus on their respective class.

However, Rio has meta-knowledge, or in another term, future knowledge. He knows a particular place where a Formless Seed is found. The Formless Seed allows one person to effectively make a second <Miracle Core >, of course it's uses are far more versatile and flexible, however making a second < Miracle Core > is the best option so far.

Two <Miracle Cores> will make him effectively make use of magic more flexible by virtue of having many more options.

However, as he is currently at the academy the Formless Seed will wait. First he has to practice the skills of sorcery, for that reason he brought several books and scrolls with him from the library.

Calming down his excitement, he prepared to channel the spell. There was a false notion that Sorcerers need a staff to channel their spells. A staff is used because the medium is far more flexible and easier to use than using your body to channel.

Closing his hands and pointing a finger upfront, he focused his mind into channeling the spell.

“Agi.”

Swoosh!

A flaming ball appeared and struck to the wall. It didnt touch the wall however, as a blue invisible barrier obstructed it from being charred. None of it matter Rio though, for all what matters now is that he was able to cast magic.

The spell he used was a beginner skill rated one star, meaning the lowest of low. Even if it is just the most miniscule magic in all of everything, Rio was elated. It was like a kid discovering new things.

Calming down his inneccessant excitement, he looked over the pile of scrolls and books. Oh boy does he need to pull a ton of all nighters. However that was not a problem to him. Rio's body is already [ Rank C ] the rank of people beyond the average. His stamina is over the top and is easily able to stay awake overnight.
