Chapter 951 Back to Light Cay


    In the blink of an eye, Vicente experienced two more days in Ravengarde, reaching his fourth day since arriving in Anicane.


    After a first day that had basically been about adapting to the rules, history and important facts about this new reality, he began his activities as a member of Stonewall.


    After settling his affairs at the city''s Registration Center, he had his first meal, and learned why Prisiche had told him he barely had enough to live on in this ce.


    Vicente had tried several dishes in the restaurant he passed that day. But only the Sixth ss dishes, for 6th stage magicians, had any effect on bodies like him. But dishes of that quality cost hundreds of stone coins!


    If one wasn''t careful, one could easily spend several thousand stone coins a day on meals alone.


    The local food had proved too tasty for Vicente''s pte and he had spent 1,450 stone coins on that meal before returning home with a full belly.


    That day he experienced, for the first time in years, the sensation of filling his belly and sleeping soundly, something he hadn''t done since he started his cultivation journey.


    When he woke up the next day with an empty stomach, he was not only hungry but also stronger!


    However, this wasn''t just because of the effect of having ascended from a lower ne. As much as his body and soul were absorbing mana almost continuously, he became stronger in one night''s sleep than he should have been with ''just'' that effect.


    He woke up on his third day in Anicane with a cultivation of a 4-Star Archmage!


    Following his surprise, Prisiche exined to him that the previous night''s meal had helped him raise his cultivation. He was already close to this advance and, just as importantly, he had never experienced such an opportunity before.


    In a way, magicians'' bodies developed resistance to resources in both Pris Realm and Anicane.


    Using too many resources of a grade would lead to resistance to the effects of that resource. Only by consuming different resources of the same grade, or the same, but of higher grade, could one again benefit from the effects of those resources.


    Those who had tasted nothing could benefit from even simple meals!


    This was the reason Vicente had developed his strength so easily, which, ording to Prisiche, shouldn''t happen too often from now on.


    After his one year ofpulsory time in the Ravengarde core, for example, he should have been fully adapted to opportunities like that so he wouldn''t be so susceptible to advances in strength.


    On his third day in the sect, he went ahead with the start of hispulsory activities, just as he had nned with Prisiche.


    On the first day, he dealt only with the Forge Center, which was what he was most familiar with, given his talents and skills developed in Pris Realm.


    At the Forge Center, he was assigned to study under the supervision of a 7th stage cksmith, with whom he was to work together once or twice a week from now on.


    Stonewall''s cksmiths were not obliged to stay under the supervision of a higher ranked cksmith normally. In this sect, one could develop their skills on their own using the library, the resources avable to disciples, or through trade, buying resources, special techniques, and even training.


    The sect gave its members a lot of freedom to learn and develop on their own, without major limitations. But with neers from lower nes, because of their unfamiliarity with many of the truths of forging, they had to remain under the supervision of more qualified professionals until they reached a certain level.


    On his first day at the Stonewall Forge Center, Vicente did absolutely nothing great. He showed his supervisor what he could do and then received from her an order of books that he should study before their next meeting.


    In a way, the situation wasn''t that different from what he''d already faced with Benson, except that it was easier, since he hadn''t had to convince his supervisor to give him a chance.


    After a day of studying, Vicente realized that he urgently needed to catch up on his understanding of materials, forging rules, and the various ways of utilizing mana and elements. He discovered that there were a minimum of 50 techniques at his disposal, which, if mastered, could even solve the issue of the potential of firearms, among other things.


    But to be a 7th stage cksmith, he would have to be proficient in over 200 techniques and 1,000 materials, something that would take him time to achieve.


    After a day of studying the forge, he had another meal, this time containing himself better than yesterday, opting for dishes with better value for money and satiating effects.


    Another night he slept soundly until, on his fourth day in the sect, he headed for the Combat Center. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    As the name implied, this Center focused on developing thebat skills of its members, whether with practical fighting or theory.


    In Anicane, the magicians seemed much more methodical and strategic than in Pris Realm.


    Vicente hadn''t fought on his first day at the Combat Center, as he had expected before visiting the ce. Instead, he was also directed to a supervisor, who set him to studying types of powers, elements and abilities.


    ording to Prisiche and the supervisor at his disposal, magic forms and the use of pentagrams had been used in Anicane for millions and millions of years. Every special magical form, attribute, power and spell imaginable had already appeared and even been studied.


    The best method for a warrior to strengthen themselves was not to fight immediately, but to focus on learning about their own weaknesses and the strengths and weaknesses of other people''s powers.


    A truly powerful magician was not one who could crush their enemies with a single type of blow, but one who could use a thousand different methods to defeat countless enemies!


    To be someone like that, one would have to study the magical forms, the elements, the possible spells to create and the magical creatures—the ones behind most pentagrams.


    But even though he didn''t fight on his first day, Vicente wasn''t disappointed. Besides his responsibilities with the Combat Center being two to three times a week, he had heard that, at least once a week, all members of the Center should have an official fight. This even applied to neers from lower nes, like him!


    After another day of learning, he had his meal and another night''s rest. On his fifth day in the sect, it would finally be time for him to start his journey of learning medicine!


    ...


    Vicente wake up early once again. He soon got ready before leaving his residence, apanied by Prisiche.


    The artificial intelligence by his side gave him some information on the way out of the house until he stopped at a bread store and bought his breakfast.


    He ate on the way to the Medicine Center, with Prisiche taking him to the right ce while updating him.


    "Master, you have reached 42% progress in the mission to be a Magus. I feel that,ter this month, you will reach level 5-Star Archmage," she said as she analyzed the data in his log.


    Vicente himself would need to go to the Registration Center or buy one machine to find out a lot of information about his missions and other activities. But for some things, such as progress on missions andpulsory activities, Prisiche could update him.


    "That''s good. But I imagine things will slow down after that," he said in the middle of his chewing.


    "Certainly. Cultivation is an endless journey in which each step forward is greater than thest. After this breakthrough to 5-Star, you''ll probably go about two months without advancing and then you''ll go about three months, maybe four... Anyway, don''t get used to these rapid advances.


    But it''s possible that you''ll experience something explosive again after your year here, when you''re allowed to leave the core of the sect." She tried to cheer him up.


    "Good."


    The two entered the grand Medicine Center, a well-wooded ce with a strong medicinal fragrance, but also a lot of movement.


    From what he already knew, the Medicine Center not only focused on teaching the art, but also served as a hospital. Wounded and sick people from Ravengarde could ess it for free, given the educational purposes of the area.


    After passing many patients, Vicente and Prisiche arrived at the ward where he was to begin his activities.


    As soon as they entered arge hall with several side staircases and corridors, one of the few people standing there spotted them, easily recognizing them.


    "Vicente Fuller, right? You''ll be working with me. Follow me. I don''t have much time before I have to leave." Spoke a stunning blonde woman, dressed in blue attire. Without bothering to greet Vicente, she swiftly turned her back and made her way down a corridor.
