Chapter 48
Anton and his family went inside the inn and in the common area some people were looking at them curiously but most of them with appreciation in their eyes for spending a lot of coins on the villagers.
When they returned to their rooms Anders and Anna must have been exhausted since they retired immediately. Anton decided to spend a couple of hours practicing his mana manipulation of some of his spells outside the Rogue Encampment. He focused mainly on the spell Blizzard since practicing the mana of higher-level spells would also train his mind to see the details of how a particular manipulation of mana can somehow change the construct of the spell if the nature of the spell were not different from its basic principles. A good example was gathering the energy of Blizzard and compressing it in his hands instead of allowing it to gather above the aimed location and then changing the nature of the spell to turn into a high volume of water. This could let him summon a huge volume of water to fill up a tank in no time at all and with more practice, instead of summoning a deadly blizzard, he could summon mana rain in an area. That could be very helpful to farmers.
Anton was quite sure that changing the nature and construct of fire and lightning spells would be more challenging mainly because both spells from those spell trees were more dangerous than ice and water. After a while, he noticed that he spent more than an hour practicing so he decided to rest.
The next day when Anton woke up his father was already gone. He was sure that Anders was already conducting his business in the village so he went downstairs to have breakfast. When he arrived in the common room, he ordered breakfast from the server and asked about the whereabouts of his father and sister. The server told him his family was in the village’s main hall to purchase things from the villagers.
He decided to check on them before going to his room to play the game after breakfast. When Anton arrived in the village hall, he saw that his father was talking to a man and when he approached them Anders introduced the man as a carpenter who would help them in constructing the bucket slash toilet. The carpenter was also the man who would assist them in procuring the bathtub.
Anton’s father then told him that he already spread the word about hiring a couple of guards on the way to the holy city of Tiande. That was the reason why he saw a gathering of fit young men outside the hall but almost all of them looked like farmers who ran away from home. Anna was sitting at a table talking to a woman who was showing her a bunch of old clothes. He took his leave after he asked his father’s permission and went back to their room in the inn so he could go back to playing the game. Right now, he was level twenty-six. He hoped to reach level thirty soon to get the level thirty spells.
When Anton got back to their room he maximized his Diablo II game and entered it virtually. It would have been easier to level up if he could control the difficulty of the game but alas there was no console that he could use to type in the cheat code that would increase the difficulty of the game corresponding to the number of players which he would type in therefore increasing the experience gained.
When he was using the famous streaming site, he was able to summon a virtual keyboard that he could use to type in the videos that he would like to view and the same thing with other movie or anime sites but inside the game, he wasn’t able to summon the keyboard. His leveling speed was fine because the most important part was for him to practice the spells that he received to make sure that he was able to manipulate the mana of all the spells that he learned.
Once Anton hit thirty which was soon, he would have received all the spells then he would only focus on leveling up and hunting for equipment. In the game, he was able to complete the
