Chapter 15 - CH 15

Increasing his dexterity and improving his aim are both important, but the most priority goes for gathering food

so he activated his body strengthening and started running as fast as he can, hoping that he would be able to get something related to dexterity

soon after, he met a slime, but he was still trying to go faster , as a result he didn't stop for it for too long

he just ran at it grabbed it from the core, and smashed him to the ground, the core shattered, and the slime died

Alpha put the core in his pocket and kept running , he did the same thing for all the next few slimes he met

He kept stuffing their cores in his pockets , but unfortunately he had too many of them, they wouldn't fit

this is where he got the idea of trying to infuse his pockets with Mana, it doesn't make sense for him to be able to only infuse his body with it , so he stops and tried it

took him a while but eventually he gained a new skill

[DDB] : short for Deferent dimension bag, size: 10 INT=1 slot

At that moment the mask shouted "DID YOU JUST LEARN A SPACE MAGIC?!!!"

Alpha got startled and confused, so he asked the mask "what's a space magic?"

according to her explanation, there are a total of six main elements for magic

Air, Earth ,water ,fire, light and dark, but there are a few sub elements that are extremely rare and hard to master, space elements being one of them

For the mask, it was a great thing to have , but Alpha had a different opinion

if the space magic only allows him to store stuff in a different dimension and extract them whenever he wants

then it can only be handy and convenient at best, it's not worth all that excitement

as a result he chose to ignore it and focus on his main target, improving his dexterity while gathering food

He dashed forward while ignoring all the masks complains, finding slimes, killing them, taking their cores and storing them in his DDB

Eventually he ran out of Mana, so he stopped to replenish it ,then he reactivated his body strengthening magic and run back to the safe Zone

When he got there, he sat down and took out one of those slime cores, he opened it then tried to eat it

although the title of food eater allows him to eat anything without having any side effects

he still felt a bit disgusted from the texture of raw meat, that one slime core was the only one he could eat

as a result he put all of his efforts into learning how to use fire magic, being able to eat anything doesn't mean you must eat everything

Thus he sat down, crossed his arms, and started thinking , previously when he experimented with magic, he just shot his Mana out from his palms and resulted in wind magic

if he wants to use fire now, then he need to use a different method , so his focus was on how does a fire burn

luckily for him, he has recovered enough memories to help him with that

if you want to burn fire then you need a fuel and some oxygen, the oxygen is everywhere so what he needs is the fuel

since there is nothing else to burn in this dungeon, he can only try to use his Mana as the fuel

But even then, he still needs to find a way to light it on fire, he can't use a match nor a lighter , thus he must think outside the box

the only way he could think of is to heat up the Mana enough to set it on fire

And since heat is just the vibration of atoms and molecules, he can make anything heat up as long as he can make it vibrate fast enough

so he gathered some of his Mana in front of him and tried making it shake

he was going at it for hours hoping that it will light on fire, but there were no progress, although it looked like it was warming a little bit , but it wasn't enough

so he compressed it into a smaller region and kept on vibrating it, that did help, and the heat increased

but it still wasn't enough, it was lacking a lot of energy, after noticing that , he tried to pour even more Mana in it, after all Mana is a form of energy

maybe with all of that, it will speed up the heating, and it did! because suddenly the Mana in front of him didn't just light on fire , it exploded!!
