Wallace froze for a couple of seconds as something appeared on his mind.

[ Activating Pathfinder Tool... ]

[ Authenticating User... ]

[ Pathfinder activation completed. The tool will guide the user achieve the goals you selected. ]

[ Starting complete a.s.similation... ]

[ Please wait as Pathfinder will a.n.a.lyse the best possible paths for the user base on your current location. ]

[ Counting down, 3... 2... 1... World environment has been checked. ]

[ User may now select on the options listed.

1. Combat Magician"s Path

2. Magic Engineer"s Path

3. Mage Doctor"s Path

4. Celebrity Idol"s Path

5. Emperor"s Path

6. Create your own Path ]

[ If the user did not select a Path within 300 seconds, the Pathfinder will instead choose one from options 1 to 5 for you. ]

Wallace then saw a countdown appearing in a corner of his mind. He was of course surprise to see all this. He didn"t even know where did this come from. If he will make a guess, it was probably something to do with the relic he touched on the s.p.a.ceship. After all, with the event that has occured like their s.p.a.ceship being ambushed, sending him somewhere in the universe then merging or probably reincarnating on this body, it all started because of the relic.

He didn"t delve too much on his mind as he accepted instead this another supernatural event. He confirmed that description can be seen on each option and first checked what"s this Celebrity Idol, he"s already aware on what"s combat magician, magic engineer, and mage doctor"s path implies. But this Celebrity Idol seem to come out of nowhere.

Wallace shook his head after reading on it, he could not imagine performing in the populace, be on entertainment industry or be some expert artist in some field and be a famous celebrity. Why is it even in my options?

He then checked Emperor"s Path description then checked the first 3 options. He was curious about combat magician as supposedly, he wouldn"t be qualified on it. He noted as well the 6th path which is creating own path.

[ You have 15 seconds left. ]

The voice in his mind reminded him. After checking the description of each options, he chose his path.

Wallace and his cla.s.smates were now all in the testing room for practical examination to create 5th gen artifact. Everyone has an idea how to do it but some have never tried as equipments and materials needed are all expensive. Failing to properly inlay magic structure in the artifact can destroy the whole thing. Aside from that, mana formation and mana array required is a problem as well.

Instructor Gilbert has prepared the room and now about to tell them the examination.

"As you can see here, we can only prepare six Artifact Forging Box so this will take some time. You all just need to infuse Flame Mantra created by Weiss Holdings in these accessories."


He then showed 30 bracelet with all same looks. They are all plain silver bracelets without any adornment. Beside these accessories is a bunch of bead sized crystals which contains the magic structure. The 4th gen artifact only required 1 magic structure crystal which contains all innovation from 1st to 4th gen. But with the 5th gen appearance, they have to use another magic structure crystal for it.

"There is already prepared Array. The Formation is there as well. So you really just have to infuse the magic structure of Blue Flame Mantra."

Their job was indeed lessened. But it wasn"t that simple.

The standard process of forging has several steps. First, you need Artifact Forging Box which is the main device. It is a 3 feet high machine that they have here in the Academy. This machine has two handle at the side where magicians can hold to channel mana into the machine. This box has a lot of uses depending on the array.

Secondly, you need Mana Formation to give stable source of mana. Magicians don"t need to use their own mana pool as it will all come from this formation.

Third would be Mana Stabilization Array or just Mana Array. This helps the magicians to control the infusing process. It would not matter if you have low or high mana affinity with the array in place.

Fourth will be the materials itself. In standard process, the material has to be made in the same Artifact Forging Box for compatibility concerns when completing the forge. Though there will be auxillary array to be added. But due to demand for ma.s.s production, it is being accepted as there is only very small difference that could really not be felt. Only some perfectionist will really press to have it made on same Artifact Forging Box. This time, the bracelet they have obviously is a ma.s.s produced one.

Once the material was in the forging box, mana formation and mana array in placed, magician can start the infusing process of magic structure. This time, there is already prepared one which is the Blue Flame Mantra, a magic structure made by Weiss Holdings and sold it at ma.s.s on the early stage of 5th gen artifact. The structure contains flame related magic and was really quite simple, the only notable about this Blue Flame Mantra is that how it control the heat it produced.

Infusing the magic structure"s content to the material is taxing in one"s mind. Especially 5th gen which requires 2 magic crystal.

Wallace waited for 2 hours before his turn. He was itching to accomplish the task given by the Pathfinder. Apparently, he was given a task after he chose his path yesterday.

[ As someone who dreams to attain something big, you have to improve yourself.

Mission : Get a high score on practical examination tomorrow.

Mission item : Necklace of Clarity

Mission Reward : Improvement in Mana Affinity

Bonus Reward : If the mission was completed with the highest score in the cla.s.s, the Necklace of Clarity will be given to the user. ]

Wallace noticed that he was now wearing a thin black thread as a necklace

[ Necklace of Clarity ]

Unfortunately, it doesn"t have other description and could only guess what it is.
