For the upcoming compet.i.tion, you don"t really need to be a magic engineer capable of producing original mana artifact or magic structure.It doesn"t require you to have an experience in that field as long as you"re foundation in forging was broad. As long as you have wide range of mana artifact and magic structure in the list that you can make, it would be enough.
Of course, if you"re capable of creating your own, it would be a surprise factor that could add some chances in winning. But a proven and tested mana artifacts was considered to be a better choice whenever partic.i.p.ating in such compet.i.tion.
In fact, Tracy and Mark have not yet published any original mana artifact as well as the twins, Kenneth and Katherine. But even though that was the case, with the skills of both Tracy and Mark in creating various pre-designed artifact and structure, they claimed top spots in overall rankings in the 2nd year cla.s.s. Added with their talent and available resources, it was no wonder that they could get top ranks.
Tracy doesn"t feel threatened about Wallace"s appearance and in fact, she was glad to see another good compet.i.tor. She believes that a good challenge will allow her to better herself.
"I have some time.. so let"s talk later."
Wallace did not ignore Tracy this time and answered her as he noticed that their subject instructor has arrived.
Tracy nodded at this and went back to her seat while grinning.

The instructor who just arrived was their Sir Riba who teaches Mana Praxis and a.s.siduity. It revolves around utilization of naturally mana infused materials.
Yes, there were materials that already possess mana within because of their long exposure in mana filled environment or because their structure is just susceptible to mana.
This study allows the students to familiarize themselves on the abundant numbers of materials, plants and even creatures that possess mana.
Materials like mana stone, jax stone, star burr are samples of naturally mana infused materials. They were indispensible components in some mana artifact.
Of course, materials that were artificially infused by mana using a forging box with array and formation was more popular since acquiring these naturals was easier said than done.
Just like humans, not all plants and materials has mana affinity. Most of them are even being controlled by large companies, government and other private organizations.
There was also these interesting creatures that has an affinity in mana that can be found in mana filled environment. They normally possess strong body, some level of intelligence and could control mana with a thought.
Although their numbers were low, every creatures that was naturally nurtured by mana has strength to be reckoned with.
Wallace is very interested in this subject as the location where his s.p.a.ceship landed seems to be an environment filled with mana and rich with plants infused with it.
He was able to recognize those plants because of this subject. This cla.s.s lasted for 2 hours and being taught 3x a week allowing them to learn a lot over this subject.
After the cla.s.s, Tracy joined instead with Wallace and Gilbert"s group on their lunch at the cafeteria. Tracy did not really start a conversation about what she has in mind when she asked Wallace on the cla.s.s.
It was only until Wallace planned to go visit the student council office that Tracy asked to come along with him. Both of them was on the way to the office.
"I heard that you were the Traceless Hands?"
"Hmm? That fast? It seems there"s a lot of holes in the NMTI"s security."
Wallace know that it will be leaked but he"s not expecting to be that quick.
"Haha, at least only the upper cla.s.ses are the ones who were aware of it. It can be a form of protection to you as well. So they know who not to mess with."
Tracy seemed to be more happy after confirming his ident.i.ty as it cleared all her doubts.
Wallace only used Traceless Hands as another ident.i.ty because the magic jammer canceller will definitely not be likened by some peopl. It was to protect himself as well. Of course, it is with the intention of making his own brand for the future too.
"I hope so." Wallace answered Tracy as they near the student council office. She doesn"t have intention of joining Wallace in the office and just liked to talk to him.
"Well... Have you seen our cla.s.smate"s original mana artifact?"
Tracy stopped walking as she asked Wallace once more
"Yes, it"s a good artifact. He"ll definitely be an amazing magic engineer some day."
Wallace complimented Ross as if it doesn"t affect him in any way.
"Haha... Is that so? Do you plan to get a slot on the TMAC? That artifact could allow him to gain better chances with the slot though."
"Yes, Don"t worry. I"ll definitely have one."
"Cool, it"s seems you"re really confident, huh? Goodluck then."
Tracy waved goodbye as Wallace entered the student council office to report.

That night Wallace was busy on his workshop. as he plans to finish his mana artifact to gain leverage. With Ross earning prestige with his new mana artifact, him being selected as a partic.i.p.ant was more likely to happen if Wallace did not do something.
"Controls are good, transitioning was quick, power is sufficient and operation time was longer than expected. This should work."
Wallace was about to complete his finishing touches when he suddenly remembered his Silver sphere. There were still 3 empty slot on it. The first one already contains jax stone were magic jammer canceller structure was infused.
He has plans for this 3 slot but hadn"t had time to work on it.
"Hmm.."
He was planning to work on it as it may only take him for a few days. After all, this new mana artifact that he created may be too much when thinking about it. Wallace sighed.
"Let"s finish this first."
