Chapter 85: What Could Go Wrong?
Back on the blue star, there was a popular saying, "time flies when you"re having fun" however at this time, Elric felt that it should be "time flies when you"re working hard" instead
A week had pa.s.sed, and under Elric"s meticulous instructions, the school affairs had gone into full throttle
He had finally chosen a set of chefs among the adult primitives to serve and prepare the food in the cafeteria
A hunting squad had been shaped with Davis as the leader in charge of procuring food and beasts
George in charge of meditation sessions, making sure that the students don"t encounter any trouble in the process
Alvin mapping out the territory whenever Davis when out
And to crown it all off, some students just yesterday were able to sense mana
Sighing slightly, Elric couldn"t believe that just in a week so much had been achieved freeweb
With his hand on behind facing the window Elric finally felt who could relax a bit.
Thinking back to now, ever since coming to Elias one thing or the other was always happening never giving him a chance to admire the beauty and wonders that came with a new world
However, now that everything was right on track, Elric suddenly had a lot of free time, so apart from the occasional discussion with George and Davis, during this week his study of mana and magic has made great progress giving him a vague idea on how to break through the next realm
Talking about progress Elric wasn"t the only one who had made great progress this week as wonderful changes had started occurring in his small world
With the birth of the first set of students with the ability to sense mana, a slight change occurred in the small world, one so small that if the small world wasn"t a part of his soul he probably wouldn"t have noticed
First of all, he felt three new threads connecting to the core of the small world, representing Aoma, Nico, and Lilith the first three to sense mana, obviously they had been recognized as wizards and thus connected to Elric the source.
Through this connection, Elric found out that he couldn"t arbitrarily cut off abilities to sense mana, While also possessing the ability to borrow and lend mana to all those connected
This meant that with the addition of every wizard, Elric had an extra power bank to rely on Incase he ever ran out of mana.
Although it might be small now, but when they were thousands or even millions of wizards under his command, Elric couldn"t help but imagine the sight
Unlimited Mana
That was the only word Elric could use to describe it.
Thinking of him shooting rapid-fire spells at his enemies without giving them a chance to react, Elric suddenly felt sorry for his future foes.
Another thing that brought Elric a bit of happiness was his ability to cut them off from mana, this meant that even if someone betrays him in the future, he can take back all their powers
Feeling the usefulness, Elric decided to keep this ability a secret, after all although it can serve as a deterrent but once they know he can arbitrarily collect their powers back, they might be a bit of repulsion towards the wizard profession
With this in mind, Elric decided it was better to keep it as a whole card rather than let everyone know
"Small world hunh, wouldn"t it be just great if you could grow into a huge world like Elias"
Looking at the dark s.p.a.ce within his soul, Elric couldn"t help but look forward to its growth, unfortunately apart from developing the wizarding profession by getting more people to become more wizards and studying magic Elric had no idea on how to develop it faster
Keeping it at the back of his mind, Elric decided to study it more when he had the time
"However, why do I feel like something would soon go wrong?"
"Hopefully I"m just imagining it"
Although he said this, a look of worry could still be seen on Elric"s face obviously he was not as calm as he sounded
Hoping he was wrong, Elric walked back to his desk and continued reading

......…..
Somewhere on the outskirts of Hogwarts, a tragic scene was currently unfolding
Covered in blood and scratches, Davis and Alvin grit their teeth as he protected the group of primitives behind them
"Hurry up and leave!"
"Go back to the school and let the young master know what"s going -Ack!"
Before Davis could finish his speech he suddenly spat out a clot of blood
"Davis!!"
Seeing this, Alvin beside him couldn"t help but shout out in worry, thankfully Davis didn"t seem to be fully out of it yet
"I"m okay Alvin, however we have to make sure way for them to return and let the young master know what"s going on"
With firm eyes, Davis staggered to stand straight as he ignored the injuries on his body
Hearing him say this, Alvin knew he couldn"t persuade Davis to leave. Slight sighing he focused his eyes on the group of people behind him
"What are you all still doing there, run!"
"Go! Hurry up, and let Elric know what happened!"
Shouting at the primitives, Alvin"s eyes suddenly turned scary,
Fortunately, after seeing the crazy looks in his eyes, without any hesitation, the primitives Immediately ran back towards the school
At this time, Only Alvin and Davis stood with b.l.o.o.d.y bodies and ma.s.sive scars all over their bodies
"Haha Davis, back then in the village, I never once imagined we"d be fighting side by side like this"
Looking at their injured bodies, Alvin laughed slightly with a tired look on his face
Hearing him say this, Davis didn"t reply to him rather, after giving him a slight nod he looked forward with a serious expression on his face
*Crack*
*Crack*
*Crack*
With the cracking of branches, a large silhouette could be seen walking slowly toward them
Seeing this, both of them whispered at the same time
"Body strengthening magic, activated!"
