Versatile: Alternate World-Chapter 657 Cultivating The Aether

A few minutes after Manato left the scene, someone arrived on the scene where the former subdued the men who are the cause of the Aether forming. The first thing he did was check the unconscious men's pulse, and after sensing that no one is dead, the guy sighed in relief and started taking notes. He stood up after checking up on the men and checked around the surroundings. Aside from the obvious little crater that is present on the ground and some slight blood stains, there are also burn marks on the walls and ground but there are no signs of things being burned there.

He also checked the pockets of the men and didn't find anything aside from cigarettes but without a lighter to light it up, it's even impossible to create these marks.

The man didn't linger for long and left after checking things here and there. It seems the person got a substantial amount of info but based on the look on his face, it's not enough. In the end, he left scratching his head. It seems that whatever he was trying to find, he needed a few more investigations to fully grasp it.

After returning from the ambush I did to the delinquents causing a ruckus and absorbing most of the Aether present in the air, the others opened the door of the mansion, welcoming me in. Pixie was the one who went to meet me in the doorway.

"The Aether is now blending in the air, is this perhaps your doing, Manato?" Pixie started asking after I went inside the house and checked the window in case someone followed me on the way back.

"It's partially my work but it's clear that I didn't absorb all of it," as I pointed to the remaining Aether that is still visible in the eye.

Rennata started speaking and Pixie immediately translated her words. "Rennata-chan said that it's good that some were left behind as this would be a good time to cultivate the mana around us and make a substantial amount of progress to our abilities. It's also a good way to increase our magic mastery to a high level in one progression."

"Really? Is that possible?" Rika raised her eyebrows hearing that this will allow her to grow much stronger in the real world.

"Just as Rennata stated. Indeed it is true. Earlier after I absorbed the Aether, my mana capacity increased significantly and that is not yet cultivated to the fullest. Since we still have this much aether left, we can use this up to cultivate enough of what we can. It's enough for everyone inside the house."

Before I can even explain, Rika already walks towards the living room and looked back at me when she noticed I still have not moved from the entrance. "What are we waiting for? Let's do this!"

Due to the insistence of Rika, Rennata and I have grown in lots of ways and our maximum mana has increased alongside with the increase of our powers as well. Not only that but all of the fatigue in my body disappeared as well. I don't even feel sleepy after the time I cultivated the Aether. But of course, the difference of the cultivation depends on the body. For me, I was refreshed but for Rika and Rennata, the two felt tired.

"I didn't know this will make me feel so tired after cultivating my mana but I can also feel the changes in my body," Rika is wiping her sweat.

Rennata also mumbles something and Pixie translates it. "Rennata-chan said that she couldn't believe how pure the Aether was on Earth at first. She has to rest to let the aether that she cultivated to at least mix on her mana's stream." ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

"If you guys are tired, then go ahead and rest. There is no need to fight over the tiredness you will feel after feeling. As soon as you rest, it will be fine to let it flow in your body much better."

"Is that so? But wait, why do you looked like you are not tired?" Rika asked.

"Hey, I am also a bit tired too, I just don't look like I am tired because I still look cool despite looking tired."

"Bullsh*t..." Rika smirked hearing that remark and cursed at me as she went to their bedroom, "We will be resting to let the aether flow properly in our body, alright? I don't know if I will play later, but we will see. My first priority for now is go to sleep."

"Alright then, see you later. I will call the others later as well to cultivate the Aether after I rested as well."

Everyone went inside and I was left all alone. The others will not be here any moment due to the school activities. This is why having no club activities is good as having one will cause your extra time to disappear. Even the siblings had one as well. I wonder what kind of activities they joined in?

Anyways, because I feel refreshed, I need to return to my room. With the overwhelming energy in me, I needed to let the mana sink into my body further. It takes a little bit of effort but its much better to the body if I keep on focusing my mana capacity to increase everytime I do so. Not only will my mana increase, but the regeneration progress as well. Can't complain about that yeah?

Cultivating the Aether made me realized how much I missed the feeling of having overwhelming mana in your body. It's totally different from those times I only have the normal mana in me. Now that the Aether is helping my body being combined, that is making me feel much better and much closer to my previous self.

The preparations to my future is now solid. Anything that comes to my way will soon be obliterated and I will be changing what will happen to me in the future. Kazuki might be planning something sinister with me but I will make sure that it will never happen and I will not fall from that same mistake again.

This time around, I will win. And it's not just my win, its a landslide victory for me changing my future.f𝒓𝗲𝗲𝒘𝑒𝚋ｎoѵ𝒆𝗹.co𝗺
