Aether then placed in a tier 3 mana circuit even though he wouldn't use many connections or anything, after the circuit Aether connected the mana wiring with very wide in diameter wires compared to the ones that mr. Brown used
After finishing the making of the ring
Aether picked up the hammer and reshaped it with his metal element affinity to have the tier 3 stabilisation rune and hit it three times according to the tier of the rune
Aether then stopped the mercury magic circles and before it could even touch the table he used his mercury element affinity and held it in the air, later guiding it into the jar
Aether then picked up the ring and after snapping his fingers the barrier dissapeared
Mr. Brown and the whole class sighed in relief
"You put up magic circles on the ring if I am not mistaken"
"Yes, I augmented the ambient mana absorbers with two tier four spells"
Mr. Brown looked at Aether with shocked eyes "And you also turned the ring from manasteel into elementium if I am not mistaken"
"Yes, and I could do that thrice more with my curent mana capacity"
"Ehem, and what is the purpose of this ring?"
Aether then turned on the ring and the whole room got devoid of mana while all of the students fainted from rapid mana depletion and mana defficiency and only Mr. Brown was standing
Aether quickly turned off the ring
"So this is a no-mana zone ring right? But what speed!!"
"No it's acctually a mana absorber. All of the mana that was inside a 100 meter radius got absorbed inside of me"
The poor teacher froze in shock
"You what!?"
"Yeah, I'm sorry, I will undo it now"
*Aether casually uses up half of his mana reserve restoring the ambient mana and rejuvenating the nature*
**And that's the story of how Aether got into detention for the first time**
***
"Seriously, I can't believe you got yourself into detention!" Leah exclaimed
"Well, I did make something increadibly dangerous without the teacher's permission"
"Well at least they alowed me to keep it"
Aether chuckled
"Anyways... What did you even make to get yourself into detention?!?"
"A third tier elementium ambient mana absorber augmented with tier four magic circles"
"And it was unexpectedly powerful and drained around 100 meters of diameter of mana"
"Yeah, I thought so. WAIT WHAT?! Did you seriously make an ambient mana absorber that was able to drain 100 meters of mana"
"You know mana absorbers aren't suppost to be that strong right?!"
"Do they?" Aether looked at the ceiling and pondered
'Acting all innocent now' Stel giggled
'You said anything?' Aether interupted her fun with quite the menacing voice
'Not like you can do anything'
'What about this?' Aether showed stel a tier 2 magic circle suppost to stop any interferances with the user's mind
'Eeeep! Where the hell did you find that while I was sleeping?!'
'I just simply made it' Aether shrugged the matter off since Leah was shouting at him
"Uhm... Did you need anything?"
"I can't understand if you were serious or not saying that" Leah pouted
"Anyways, you are still weak and we are going to go train right now"
"Ehhhh?! What do you mean weak?!"
"When you have the mana reserve to cast tier four magic twice and still can fight i will acknowledge you as someone with 'ok' strength"
"Ehhhhhhhhhh?! But how the hell am i suppost to get that strong?!"
"Training."
"But how!?"
"Aether and Leah walk to the training hall and train with each other" Aether explained monkey style
"Why are you acting as if I was dumb"
"Because you are asking dumb questions"
"Alright you can go train then, I will go do my homework"
"You already did all the homework for the next month"
"Oh, I remembered, I have to talk with my friend"
"Do you even have any real friends apart from me?"
"N-no?" Leah blushed when Aether said they were friends
"Oh, I forgot I have additional lessons from Ms. Chapatsu"
"No you don't!"
"How did you know!?"
"Telepathy"
"You seriously just cast a tier 3 spell just for that"
Aether snapped his fingers and a bubble barrier appeared and caught Leah inside
"What are you doing!?"
"Taking you to the training hall"
"Noooooooo!!!"
Aether then snapped his fingers again and the two meter bubble shrunk to 1,8
meters
"Do anything else and I will shrink it more"
"Noooooooo!!! You can't do this to meeeeeeee!!!!"
***
Five minutes later Aether stepped into the training hall and Leah was in a 1 meter wide bubble drawing circles on the side with eyes threatening to burst to tears any second
Aether then touched the bubble and it exploded but instead of Leah falling to the ground it seemed as if time just slowed down for her
"You will constantly cast tier 3 magic spells at me and I will protect myself with a shield while supplying you with mana every time it goes down to zero"
"But that's insane!!! How am I suppost to cast tier three spells when i haven't even tried casting tier 2 spells yet
"Training bullshit" Aether blinked his dead fish eyes "You will be training to expand your mana reserve and deepen your understanding of the elements"
"That... But... Ehhhh" Leah at this point was desperately trying to retaliate
"No that, no but no ehhhh" Aether was getting impatient "Do it!"
