Chapter 9: Novice Mage & Item shop

While Aisha was wondering what was happening, Daimon was focusing all his attention on his magic core that it was absorbing mana as if there was no tomorrow.

"It looks more like black hole than a magic core… Evangeline is this thing safe?".

Evangeline doubted for a second before answering.

"Well… it should be fine, to be honest your physique is quite unique it can be considered a growing type which means you will become stronger as long as you fulfill the requirements but it shouldn't do anything that is harmful to you".

Daimon was baffled "what the hell have you done to my body… whatever as long as it is not something negative it can keep on absorbing mana for all I care, I wonder if this will help me to rank up faster than others".

Evangeline was also curious of how it worked, luckily their questions were answered not too long after, the magic core suddenly stopped absorbing mana and then the dark and red light got absorbed back into it before it started growing up, previously the core had a diameter of about 5 centimeters but after having his fill it grew up to be about 30 centimeters of diameter.

Daimon tried to inspect his magic core but it didn't react at all as if it was taking a nap after eating until it was full, "why is everything I get from this stupid system against me", he thought.

He opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was Aisha's face close to his which made him stutter.

"M…mom, what are you doing?".

Aisha didn't say anything, she kept evaluating her son for a moment before letting out a sigh of relief.

"Darling is this truly the first time you absorb mana?".

Daimon understood her confusion, even him was having a hard time believing how much mana he absorbed a moment ago.

"Yes, my magic core seems to be quite… special".

Aisha shook her head, "that goes way beyond that definition darling, do you know why although Archmages aren't the "highest" ranked mages they are the most respected ones and also the strongest on a one vs one battle?"

Daimon denied, "no, please tell me".

"Because it is way harder to become an Archmage than a Magus King, to be an Archmage you need to stablish a connection between your magic core and the "external" world, so that your magic core will automatically absorb mana without you needing to do anything, that is what we call a "Domain", this Domain is also the pride and the strongest weapon of an Archmage because it manifests all the knowledge and experience in magic of its owner".

"On the contrary, the ones who decide to become a Magus King don't have a Domain… they link their magic cores to other people ones, so that the mana absorbing is in charge of their "subjects", in simple terms they are poor imitations of Archmages but this method also have its advantages, the "king" can temporarily boost his strength by sacrificing one of his subjects".

"That is the sole reason as to why they consider a Magus King above an Archmage but in reality, if your Domain is strong then you can wipe the floor with them, it's important for you to know that if you become an Archmage you can't become a Magus King and vice versa".

Daimon started sweating a bit, his stupid core was already absorbing mana by itself so he already fulfilled half of the requirements luckily there was no one else to see that show off his magic core realized a moment ago.

"I understand mom, I will be careful to not absorb mana in front of others… leaving that aside what was your Domain like?".

Seeing the curiosity on her son's eyes she smiled.

"My Domain was called "Silver Judgment", it was a mix between metal and lightning which complemented each other quite good, that was one of the reasons as to why I was considered to be on the top 100 strongest Archmages although I was still one of the youngest vampires to ever reach that rank".

Daimon was marveled, "my mom was such a celebrity", he thought.

*Ding*

[The system has been updated; the shop has been unlocked… calculating initial funds]

[Calculation completed; the current balance is "10" million coins]

He was confused, if this is what Evangeline told him to wait for then, that meant he already became an apprentice.

"Mom, besides using magic device that is designed to measure your cultivation, is there other way to know what is your current realm?".

Aisha nodded.

"Yes darling, for each realm there will be a change on your magic core, for apprentices and novice mages it is the size of the core itself, each stage on the apprentice realm is equivalent to an augment of five centimeters to the core as for the novice mages each stage augments ten centimeters".

Doing a basic sum Daimon determined that since the size of his core was of 30 centimeters then… he was an early-stage novice mage!!!

"Then I guess I kind of skipped the apprentice realm… my core's diameter is of 30 centimeters already".

This time Aisha wasn't surprised.

"Well… I expected something like that, still you absorbed a huge amount of mana for someone in your level, I wonder if your mana pond is also "special", focus on your magic core and inside of it you should see a little pond of blue liquid, that is basically a mage's mana reserve"

"An apprentice doesn't have a mana pond but for a recently ascended novice mage the size should be about 30 meters".

This time Evangeline interrupted, "there is no need to do all that, just check the details of the MP bar on the status screen".

Daimon opened his status and did as she said.

[MP: 3000] (?)

He noticed there was a question mark besides the field so he clicked on it and a little description of it deployed below.

[MP: 3000]

[Mana points are calculated in a ratio of 1 points per every meter of the mana pond]

… Evangeline didn't miss the chance to mess with Daimon, "Uwahhh as expected of a pervert like you, you certainly are a freaking monster hahaha".

"What the hell does being a pervert have to do with having a larger mana reserve, also I'm not a pervert… seriously what the hell did you do to my body?", he replied.

Evangeline shrugged, "you can't blame me for that, you were already abnormal even before the system, what I did was only unleash some of your potential, besides if you were able to contain such a chaotic thing as Anti-energy without dying, then it makes sense that your capacity for mana is on a different level than other people".

Daimon could only sigh, "I can feel my humanity fading away… although I'm a vampire now", he thought before telling his mother.

"3000 meters"

Aisha had an ironical smile on her face, "of course it had to be like that", she said to herself while shaking her head before laying down on the bed again and dragging her son into her embrace.

"It's fine, that just mean my darling will be stronger than his peers ♥ and that is a good thing".

Daimon was enjoying the calm and warm feeling he had every time Aisha was close to him, until he heard Evangeline's voice in his head.

"What happened to your declaration of "I'm not a pervert" from before?".

Daimon decided ignored her, as long as he was with Aisha, the whole world could crumple apart and he wouldn't give a damn about it.

Once he had enough of the wholesome sensation that being in his mother's embrace brought to him, he unwillingly separated from her to look into the system's shop for the thing that Evangeline mentioned earlier.

"Give me a moment mom... I will prepare the surprise I told you before".

Aisha smiled; she even played her part on the show by closing her eyes to wait for whatever her son was planning.

Daimon opened the system main screen and a list of different tabs appeared in front of him, until now he has unlocked the status, tittles, skill tree, soulmate and finally the shop functions, he clicked on the latter and a screen with different options was deployed.

[Items]

[Spells]

[Books]

[Mysterious]

[????]

...

Apparently, there were some categories that he still had to unlock, which made him remember his system was really based on something like a video game.
