After relaxing for half an hour, I get up and again sits in a lotus position.Since what I am going to do can be dangerous I first steady my breathing, calming my mind and reaches peak concentration.
I try to remember about the human body.When I studied about anatomy , when our teacher demonstrate on a dead body and when I did operations.
I organise the knowledge in my mind and starts the process.First, I separate the mana from the sphere and then shaped it in a wire form.Then I move it from the left atrium to the left ventricle through mitral valve.Then I moves it into the aorta and through there to arteries.Then arteries to various capillaries , to capillaries to veins.I slowly but steadily form thevcircuit.Mid way, the mana wire started to flow along with the blood easing the process somewhat.
Nonetheless, I have to remain concentrated to not messed up.There were mistakes in the beginning but I grow proficient in it and the process becomes faster.
Sweat began to roll down my forehead when the process reaches its climax.My mind began to waver but I hold on to it desperately.When the mana wire finally reaches the point where it started I breath some air.
I carefully bring the mana wire close to sphere which has become smaller and connect it.Then I carefully command it to flow along the path I created.
Boom!
A booming sound came from body and mana began to flow all over my body.It srengthens the muscles, tendons, bones and skin increasing my strength and defence.
I immediately check the skill and what I see really impress me.
[Mana Circuit] : Mana flows through your body in an indefinite cycle making it stronger passively.This skill increases the efficiecy of the existing mana circuit. Decreases the skill usage and magic invocation time greatly.Negative aspects of the mana circuit disappears.
My mana circuit becomes thicker and flows more fluently and faster.Although, I don't know about these negative aspects but since it is not something bad I don't have to worry.
I lay on the ground mentally exhausted since this is my first time I have done something which requires this much of my focus.I closes my eyes and feels the mana flowing through my body.It is a great feeling like something is caressing me from the inside.
Snap! Snap!
Suddenly, I hear some snapping sounds and hurriedly direct my gaze towards the disturbance.A goblin holding a branch and wearing a ferocious expression stands there.
"Seriously, I can't even rest"
I immediately grabs the spear and stands in a battle position."Grahh"Seeing me picking up the spear, the goblin roars and runs towards me.
I point the spear towards it and thrust it towards it right leg.It dodges the spear and nears me and swings the branch towards my face.
I duck the swing and kicks the goblin and make some distance.The goblin is not like the previous one and seem to have some battle experience.
I changes my strategy and goes into defensive. I try to gauge its strength and reads its movement during the fight.
Ding!
A system prompt appears in the corner of my vision and I hurriedly checks the skill.
[Inspect] : You can check some information about others.
I try the [Inspect] Skill on the goblin and information about it pops out.
< No name | Goblin | Level 9 >
Through [Inspect], I now know its Level 9 which is 8 levels higher than mine.Although it is way higher levelled than me I do not freaked out because of my higher stats and training.
Now, that I observed the goblin, its movement are simple and driven by instincts.There is no technique and only ferocity.
I continue to doge the barrack of attacks and slips in some attack of my own.The wounds on the goblin increases and it began to lose blood.Its momentum decreases and then I make use of this chance.
I thrust the spear powerfully and impaled it into its abdomen.It let go of the branch in its hand and clutches it abdomen.I do the final strike and end its life.
All stats rises by 1.You gained two free stat points.> I suddenly feel warmness spreading throughout my body and a cool sensation in my mind, expanding it.The contrasting feeling does not irritates me but it feels soothing.It likes aomething elevating in myself but I can't put a finger around it. The changes last long for few seconds and disappears. I check the system prompts and find that all my stats rise by 1 and I get two free stat points which I can add however I want.I also get stat point in Int and Wis because of the Unique Skill [Genius]. I check my status which has changed from when I came to this world. < Status > Name : Athans Smithson Age : 16 yrs Race : Human/ ?

I will increase my stats through training first and when it will become harder to raise stats I will use them.They can also become my trump cards in the case where I can't handle an enemy.
