Chapter 112: It's so taxing

"You want to see something fun?"

"Fun?" Dennis asked while Lith and Ralph looked at Arya with a curious gaze.

Arya smiled and didn't answer Dennis. Pointing her index finger towards the grey token, she released a bit of her Spiritual Power and turned the token on. Like before, the projection of a man came out of the token and he said

"Greetings, Miss Arya Relgar, I am Kang Lu, a council member of the CNC. I was the one to break the contract termination news to you and I am here once again to apologise on behalf of the whole council, to you, for the same.

It was the council's misconduct and our negligence that we didn't look into the matter deeply and went ahead with the verdict of terminating the contract. We are deeply sorry about that.

Any losses that you may have suffered during this time period shall be borne by the council itself and we ask Miss Arya Relgar to please visit the headquarters and take the required compensation."

Arya smiled after hearing it. She pointed her index finger to the grey token and it broke down into pieces. She didn't reply to the man.

Arya didn't insult the council or yell at them for their wrong doings even after such troubles and the reason was, she knew that they didn't have actual powers to remove an Emperor rank from their posts.

To have such a thing to be done, the council had to go through various paperwork and it is needed to have the sign of any one Supreme rank, be it any number of parties involved in the conflict.

Arya knew that Eric must've gotten the help of the Human Ancestor and thus, she too didn't shy away from asking Mayzin for help and this matter got closed soon.

"Teacher, what was this about?" Lith asked after taking a sip of tea.

"I had a few problems with the CNC but now it's over and they just apologised for it too. Fun, isn't it?" Arya smiled and said.

"Not really." Lith said bluntly.

Arya chuckled at this answer and got back to having tea.

Lith didn't understand what his teacher was getting at, and he didn't know the context either. When his teacher said she'll show something fun, he was hoping for something but in the end nothing really happened.

'It may probably be fun for teacher, I guess.' Lith thought and continued about his own business. Ralph and Dennis too shared the same though as Lith.

...

Few hours later.

In a dark alley, Abalax sky island.

"Here is your 100 grams of Terahorn Bonger's thousand years aged mucus. That'll be 2 gold coins." A man covered in black outfit who seemed to blend in the darkness of the alley and the night, said.

A teen with black hair and eyes nodded his head and fished out two gold coins from his pockets and gave it to the man, while the man handed over a transparent box that contained a dark green coloured slimy substance in it.

The teen left sneakily after getting what he wanted and after a few minutes of walking, he sat on a bench provided around the park on the sky island. He closed his eyes and thought to himself, 'open system panel'.

A blue screen appeared in his head and it had a string of words written in it and they were being told to the person by a mechanical voice.

'Unlock inventory.' The teen thought to himself.

'Yes.'

'Open inventory.' The teen commanded the system in his mind.

[Inventory]

The teen sighed in relief and closed the system panel in his mind to relax. He thought to himself while relaxing

'Finally. I amassed enough gold coins to unlock the inventory and get the first item for the Affinity Increaser potion. Tsk, how many jobs I had to do to get coins.

Sigh, being powerless and tending to menial jobs sure seems like a hassle. Managing the library, delivering goods to other students, tch tch, so much work to amass credits and get the gold coins.'

After a few minutes of ranting in his own mind about how difficult it was to amass money, the teen then thought 'Open system panel. Open status tab.'

'Increase Spiritual Power by points.'

[Increasing Spiritual Power by 10 points…]

[Ding!]

[Increment complete.

SP: 100 > 110]

Lucas felt the Spiritual Power in his body to have increased. He tried to absorb the surrounding magical energy into his body and he was successful in absorbing more than before. He could feel it.

Magical energy and Spiritual Power weren't the same. One could not store magical energy inside them and use it to cast spells. Everybody had to meditate and try to convert the magical energy into Spiritual Power and absorb it little by little to restore it.

The Spiritual Power is restored when a person relaxes. It works with the same mechanism as how the body repairs itself the best when a person is relaxing and not under any stress. That was an involuntary function of the body but what Lucas was doing was voluntary.

One could convert the magical energy and absorb it into their body as Spiritual Power manually. It's the same as breathing. Breathing occurs involuntarily but one can always do it manually themselves too.

Lucas wanted to test how much his capacity to hold Spiritual Power has increased and thus did it. Spiritual Power was used in casting spells, using soul powers, willing the affiliated elemental energies and many more things.

'I worked so hard these past few days. Completing those daily missions and weekly missions are taking a toll on this weak rank 2 body. Thankfully, I broke through due to my superior comprehension and can handle it a bit.

Amassing gold coins isn't easy and it's the same for the status points. Raising all stats by 50 was no joke. It's so taxing…ahhhhh!

Sigh, I am so tired. I wish I could just relax and not bother about this but…

Tsk. Why am I thinking this and ranting like a child? I should get to work and improve myself as much as I can.

I have to capture that trash as soon as I can or it'll be very troublesome later on. He'll definitely become a rank 3 in a few more weeks and I have to do this before that.'

Lucas had a conversation with himself while relaxing and after his internal monologue was over, he opened his eyes and jumped out of his sitting position and muttered

"Anyway, back to work."
