Jason was way too exhausted to continue sparring and nobody dared to come closer to them, even though Milo was looking around foolishly, while Bella looked at him as if he was the biggest idiot she had come across.
There was nothing for Jason to do, except watch some spars in front of him, and while observing them he tried to passively gather mana while his sub-area did the same.
He wanted to figure out if he could stack the passive technique´s effects and increase his mana gathering and absorption like that.
If that was possible, he could exert much more mana during a fight without worrying about his expenditures.
Furthermore, he could increase his absorption effect without wasting much time and increase his mana core faster...
Jason was already close to breaking into the 2nd Adept rank thanks to his cleansed body he received from the baptism, and it would only need a few more days to reach the threshold.
