"Teacher, you can't give up. You already made your student." Moona got even more depressed when she heard Alex.
But he was just acting. He quickly raised his body and said "I was just depressed as you. But, don't worry, since you are my student now, I will definitely help you get stronger."
"So, let's start the lesson with Mana Breathing. You already have mana in your body. I will teach you a spell which will allow you to look at other's mana flow."
"Using that spell, you can see my Mana Breathing. Follow my Mana Breathing. It will not only help you enhance the flow of mana inside your body but also purify your mana to its finest extent."
"The raw mana present in our surroundings is impure. Once you absorb that mana, you need to merge it thoroughly with the blood system that will help you slowly change your normal veins into Mana Veins."
"Nine Tiers of Junior Mage " focuses on turning normal veins into mana veins. It is measured by the density of the mana to that of blood. You need to make the density of mana higher."
"Only then your blood veins will truly strengthen themselves to the limit."
"Wait, teacher! I was taught that it was measured by the amount of mana in our blood veins." Moona raised her hand and interrupted him.
Alex shook his head and said "That's just the secondary concept to check someone's mana level. Remember when I asked you to fight against those soldiers, I was trying to check the density of your mana."
"That fireball, even if you had launched it with your own mana, it would've been ten times stronger if the density of your mana was higher. Of course, increasing the density of the mana also increases the amount."
"If you want to fight against a genius mage, you don't care about his mana amount but rather the density of his mana. If it is extremely high, the same spell can cause twice as destruction than those with lower density mana."
"Then teacher, can I fight against someone at the peak of Junior Mage as the 3rd Tier Junior Mage if my mana density is higher?" Moona once again interrupted him and asked.
Alex didn't mind her interruption. He nodded his head and said "Indeed! You can not only fight one but several if you know how properly utilize conjurer spells and have a higher density of mana."
"But of course, considering the backwardness of this town, it wasn't a surprise that you didn't have a proper Mana Breathing. So, I will give teach you mine."
"This Mana Breathing Style is known as 'Heaven and Hell Breathing Style'. Unlike the normal Mana Breathing Style, this breathing technique can be used at any moment just like normal breathing. First, learn Mana Reading Spell."
Saying so, he tapped her forehead with his finger. He took a mouthful of air mixed with mana and used a spell.
"Memory Channeling Spell"
At this moment, his brain started releasing several kinds of information all about the Mana Reading Spell in the form of electric pulses and merged with the mana. The mana flow from his hand and reached to her forehead.
Once it entered her head, the mana covered her brain and forcefully transmitted the information into her brain. This spell allowed one to copy the electric pulses and their pattern. Then, it merges with the mana and is later transmitted into another brain.
After that, the electric pulses start moving on the same exact pattern, recreating the memories of the spell. Not only does this technique allow her to memorize the spell but also comprehend it to a certain extent.
So, as soon as she got the memorize, her mana started moving toward her eyes. It was following the rules of the spell. Unlike Fireball, this was an augmentation spell so it would directly merge with her eyes and increase its capabilities.
Now, she could see not only the mana but also the mana flow. She saw the mana slowly entering Alex's nose but the steps were very different. He wasn't inhaling air like normal breathing but rather sucking the air continuously without stopping.
And, at the same time, his mouth was releasing the harmful air at a rapid pace. It's like breathing in and out at the same time. Slowly, she realized that Heaven and Hell Breathing Style actually sped up his heart, lung, and blood circulation so that he can continue breathing in and out continuously.
And, after every three minutes, there will be a gap where he couldn't breathe for one whole minute. In this one minute, his mana becomes dormant, instantly pulling the blood circulation, heartbeat, and lungs to their normal speed.
She tried repeating this process but unfortunately, just merging mana with her blood, heart, and lungs to speed them up was harder than she thought. Fortunately, she could see how Alex was utilizing his mana and thus, slowly practiced it.
.......
After a few hours, Jane walked in front of the door and knocked on it a few times but nobody opened the door.
"They aren't doing it, right?"
She attached her ear to the door but didn't hear any voice. She calmed down and shook her head.
"That girl has already grown. I hope she understands what she is doing."
Saying so, she left for dinner. It was already nighttime. And, inside the room, Alex and Moona were constantly absorbing mana.
Inside Alex's body, the mana that he was inhaling continuously was helping him strengthen his veins. Slowly, the weight of the blood increased and he started feeling pain in his blood veins.
Moona wasn't in any better condition. But, her blood veins were already 30% mana veins, she didn't get hurt at first. But when she did start feeling pain, it was enormous.
She instantly opened her eyes and her breathing style stopped completely. But, Alex was simply continuing this process. His veins were slowly transforming into mana veins.
1%, 2%, 3%, 4%...…..9%….10%
Boom!
Suddenly, his mana burst out of his body like smoke. His mana was still red like blood. Seeing this, Moona opened her mouth wide.
"Teacher just reached the 1st Tier?"
She couldn't believe that he only reached the 1st Tier right now. She just watched him with awe and disbelief. She clenched her fists and continued her breathing style.
She wanted to reach the 4th Tier before morning. She felt that her mana veins were already 37% transformed. She was only 3% away from reaching the fourth vein.
But, she did remember that she was already 35% before she used this breathing style. That's why she didn't overestimate this breathing style. Her talent wasn't that good after all.
This talent was truly painful. It took her a lot more willpower than she originally thought to reach the 4th Tier.
Finally, it was a new morning. The ray of light couldn't enter the room since it was blocked by the window but Moona heard the knocking on the door.
She stood up excitedly and opened the door. When she opened it, she saw her mother standing outside.
"Good morning, mom!"
"Good morning! So, how was the last night?" Jane giggled as she asked.
Hearing her words, Moona's expression turned red as she stomped her foot.
"Mom, it wasn't like that. I was training with the teacher. Look, I reached the 4th Tier in a single night."
At this moment, she released her mana. It coated her body like smoke.
Seeing her mana, Jian's eyes widened.
"How did you..."
She didn't know what to say. The proof was already in front of her.
"Hehe! Now, you don't even need to wait three days to make a decision, right?"
"I doubt that." Suddenly, a voice rang from the room. Moona turned her head and saw Alex slowly standing up. He walked toward the door while saying.
"Although she managed to reach 4th Tier, it is nothing impressive. Let's wait till three days to truly see the results"
Hearing his words, Moona suddenly got depressed. She had seen her teacher reaching the 3rd Tier in just one night. That's why she couldn't even refuse it.
But, Jain was truly stunned. She didn't know whether Alex was arrogant or he was truly not satisfied. Suddenly, a question came to her mind as she asked.
"Mr. Alex, just how many students your academy has?"
Alex raised his index finger and said.
"One"
