Tyler thought for a while on which spell he should learn first. Although there was a lot of Tier one spells he was interested in, he decided to put the thought aside for now. He wanted to research more on Mana control and basic Tier spells wouldn't help him do that.

He still remembered all the close calls he had whenever he would cast a spell. Even if he got stronger and learnt more powerful spells, it wouldn't be of much use if he ended up incapacitated each time he used a single spell, and who knew what strange effects would happen if he used higher tiered spells. 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗novel.𝐜o𝒎

Tyler searched around a bit before finally taking a Tier 2 spell book off one of the shelfs. He then walked around for a while before he found what he was looking for. It was a section of the library, dedicated on Mana control. There were several degrees of Mana control for casters at different level of potential. The higher ones potential was, the more difficult it was to control their Mana.

There were very few grandmages and sorcerers in the past and most of them had spent centuries researching this problem, some even ended up relying on magic artifacts to control their strengths. Tyler couldn't help but smile upon reading this part. He was relieved he wasn't alone in this even though those grand mages and sorcerers were most definitely dead by now and there might've been various breakthrough in the last thousand years.

He was also very pleased in his comparison to a grandmage. It was important to note that such a title wasn't given lightly. These were all magic casters with uncommonly high magic potential and incredible achievement in their pioneering the vast void that is the unknown aspect of magic.

Tyler had heard of a Grandmage in the human continent, two in fact. He heard they could extend their lifespan for decades and one of them at the time was over 200 years old. Most humans would only have a potential of tier 1 and those that reached Tier 2 were considered as the gifted, then there were the rare few that had reached the peak of human potential and capped on tier 3. Those were usually the higheres ranked adventurers whether they were full on mages or just magic fighters.

It wasn't until the human race had faced the consequences of their reckless actions that heros that surpassed those limits appeared. Amongst those heros was the Grandmage Deneil Askain Steinford. From what Tyler remembered he was a true legend that lived in the Le Aliztan Empire. He had risen to fame even before the Human alliance was formed, back in the days when the kingdoms and Empires were still at odds with each other, this was predating the great war.

He was promoted to a rank of equal status with the emperor, although he had no administrative duties. He created and lead the Magic Institute of Le Aliztan and was the head researcher for magic, the creation of new artifacts and Mana control. Thinking of this Tyler couldn't help but think about reading some of his research notes. 'No, I need to focus on what's in front me and not something that might never happen.'

He proceeded to read as many books on Mana control as his level of magic runes allowed. Time flew by quickly and Tyler was unaware of it. He barely felt the flow of time in the library and didn't know how much time had passed so far. The lighting in the room was constant and there were no windows to indicate the time of day.

Tyler spent hours in that section untill he finally read enough to understand the basic. What these books told him was that Mana control was directly related to how one builds their Mana body. The Mana body could be considered as the core for every living and intelligent creatures in this world.

Basically, it was the same or equivalent to the cores and magic crystals in magic beast. Only, unlike beasts, this wasn't just the source of Mana in the body, this would also strengthened the physical body to the limits of it's potential, providing the various tiers of physiques. However, When an intelligent lifeform is born they don't automatically possess a Mana body. They would possess what was know as a Mana pool.

This Mana pool is then influence by the amount and purity of the natural energy around them which can later develope into an innate ability, if the child was extremely lucky. The Mana pool grows with the body until it reaches it's limit and then slowly mutates and forms what is now know as a Mana body. This is also why ones a Mana body forms, it decides the potential of that person and can no longer be increased.

Tyler woke up in this world already and adult and was not blessed by the effects of an hero summoning spell. He had not gone through such a process in his life and even though he had an innate ability he barely had enough potential to use it. Now however, he felt like his body was most likely forcefully fed with enough natural energy to bypass such restrictions, it was no wonder he barely had any control over it.

Heroes received blessings that negates any negative effect from not developing their mana pool into a Mana body while those that were reincarnated used their previous knowledge to properly develope their Mana pool to get a relatively high potential. But, he didn't fit into any of this categories. He had died yet he wasn't reincarnated and he didn't know if he was summoned as their was no one where he had woken up. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐om

An hero summoning required more than fifty mages, in order to perform the ritual and they also needed the blessings of a priest so all heroes that had been summoned so far, were all summoned by one of the three churches. While sometimes they were used for politics based on which church summoned them, Tyler never witnessed such things, having transmigrated during the time of the great war.

The entire thing was giving him an headache. Was his imprisonment in the underground prison of the demon king's castle a coincidence. He decided not to ponder questions he couldn't possibly get the answer to and focus on how to fix his current predicament.

So far he understood his Mana pool hadn't develope well with his body to form a perfectly synchronized Mana body. Right now he couldn't do any thing about that and to fully fix this problem he would need to master all levels of an advance magic rune. But he could still start the process now. He didn't know how long he had been here but he felt he didn't have much time left.

He sat down on the floor and adopted a meditation pose. According to the book he needed to feel the source of the energy surging inside of him until he could visualize his Mana body. Tyler tried to focus intently as he turned his attention within him. It was quiet, for a period of time there was no sound in the vast library.

No footsteps, no flipping of books and not even the sound of breathing. Tyler was fully immerse in himself for hours until he finally found it. He saw a body that looked similar to him made out of pure energy. The energy was out of control within the body and he could even see cracks slowly appearing on the exterior of the Mana body. Tyler's heart tighten, he hadn't expected the situation to be so dire.

To think he had gotten so much more stronger than he was just for his Mana body to be on the verge of self destruction.

Tyler didn't have time to think too much as he immediately acted.

He instantly followed the instructions on the books and extended his consciousness within the Mana body to get a feel on the situation inside. He had no knowledge on advance magic runes and couldn't mend the cracks while slowly expanding his mana body to contain so much energy.

Tight... He couldn't penetrate his own Mana body. The thickness and shear amount of energy inside him was ridiculous, moreover it felt like it was still growing. Tyler tried again and again, wanting to enter the center of his Mana body with his consciousness but was barely making progress. He had no choice but to forcefully expand his Mana body from this distance.

Normally it would be impossible to expand ones Mana body as it formed naturally with their potential so even expanding it would only improve their stamina and not their potential. They would only improve their Mana reserve if they used magic crystal during the process. The odds of success was also abysmal and the magic crystal would be wasted, there was also a chance of damaging the Mana body so such a process was not without risk.

Tyler had enough mana reserves and stamina so all he needed was the expansion. He also had magic crystals on him and since he didn't need to use them to improve his stamina, he wanted to use them to contain his Mana body so the cracks doesn't get worse during the expansion.

He reach into his pockets and felt out two Magic crystals, bringing them out he absorbed the chaotic energy within and forced them to envelope his Mana body. Normally it was very dangerous to use a magic crystal directly but Tyler had no intentions of letting the energy into his Mana body.

Spreading out his consciousness he stired the Mana within his Mana body and swirled them around. It felt like he was in the eyes of a whirlpool and the vast amount of Mana surged around him. If it wasn't for the energy from the magic crystals supporting his Mana body from the outside, he had a feeling his Mana body would've shattered right now.

He then used intermediate magic runes as a conduit in forcing the energy to evenly expand the Mana body without further damaging any part of his Mana body.

It was a delicate process and he didn't rush it, he couldn't fix the damage that was already inflicted on his Mana body and he didn't want to be the one to damage it further. Time passed slowly as he finally felt his Mana body expand slightly.

Although he would like to continue, this was enough, the energy from the magic crystals were almost exhausted. If he got greedy and tried some more with only level one intermediate magic runes he would definitely destroy his Mana body himself even with additional magic crystals.

Tyler immediately retrieved his consciousness and watched as the Mana within his Mana body settled down slightly. He had a sigh of relief as he could finally think about what he had just realized.

Whatever was underground had slowly over the period of a thousand years forced natural energy inside his shell of a Mana body to the point of almost destroying his mana body. Anyone else would have never survived such a process and the only reason he survived was because he had never evolved a Mana pool into a Mana body so his Mana body was like an almost empty glass container.

There was no way this could now be considered a coincidence. However who could have wanted him to absorb so much energy and have knowledge of the strange location he had woken up in under the castle, was he supposed to be used as an experiment or was he some kind of vessel for them.

There were a few people that came to mind when he thought about this and at the very top of the list was the most powerful being in the world at that point in time, the person whose rage and anger was so bottomless, it had almost swallowed him in the rocky plains by the outskirts of the Darknar forest.

It was non other than the previous demon King, Uryil Von Niilx Darknar.
