Chapter 9 - 9. Levi and the ring

He was so stunned by what he was seeing here. It was a large four cornered room, it's 11 metres tall and 25 metres wide.

This room was very big as there were three beds in the room, and one of the beds with a blue bedsheet was a bag and on the screen beside the head side show [OCCUPIED].

"So that bed's taken huh." he said as he averted his gaze to look at the other beds. The other two beds were in a red and white bedsheet and following his natural instincts he chose the red one and it was close to the window.

On the side of the bed a card reader was there and curiosly he swiped his card and the screen beside his bed read [OCCUPIED].

"Hm?, that was quick!" he said as he sat on the bed.

When he sat on the bed, he felt soft and cool feeling from the bed. He was sure that this bed was comparable to the one he had at home.

"Yes, this is high quality" he said as he saw various functions on the screen beside his bed such as massage, cool, warm and others.

He laid his back on the bed and began thinking. He has taken his first step to becoming a hero like his dad.

"Hey Levi!" he called.

{Yes}

"Do you mind teaching me the teleportation skill now?" he asked as he didn't have anything to do for now but sleep.

{sure, it's my job to teach you things. But....I'm afraid you are not at the level to use the skill, the true potential of the skill won't be shown} Levi answered.

"I don't understand" Mariel said with a confused look on his face. Is this crystal spirit calling him weak?.

{Sigh* You are at the fourth level of apprentice mage, the maximum distance of the teleportation would be 100 metres, and that's if you expend all your mana} Levi explained.

"Okay but can the amount of mana I use be reduced and can the distance also be reduced?"

He imagined himself vanishing and appearing by his mother's side and how freaked she would be.

{Yes, you can reduce the mana used and it will also cause the distance to reduce}

Mariel pondered over what Levi said for a while. Levi was right, it would be quite useless to him now if he has the teleportation skill.

{Hm?}

"What?" Mariel asked as Levi made a surprised sound.

{Your ring, it works with runes....hold on} Levi said. Soon enough the ring started to heat up a little.

Mariel took a look at the red ring and more runes and symbols started to appear on it till the whole ring was covered with these runes.

He looked at the complex runes and symbols that he has never seen before.

"What did you do?" Mariel asked worriedly, let it not be that Levi damaged the ring.

{I enhanced it, check it out} Levi urged him excitedly.

He opened the interface and there was two more icons there which were skills and books. 'Skills?. It's not like I can just read it on the screen and learn it.' he thought.

He then navigated to his status page on his screen using his fingers to tap on it.

'Why is the beast spirit information in question marks?'

{Probably because they couldn't identity the type of beast spirit you have} Levi answered.

"Oh, okay"

He then tapped on his skill icon and another list came up in front of him.

"Wait a minute I haven't learned all these skills" Mariel said as he saw the long list of spells and skills.

{But you will} Levi responded.

"Sigh..." he sighed at Levi's statement and stood up from his bed. He then brought his bags from the inventory and put it inside a small cupboard beside the bed.

**Elsewhere**

A man was seen walking on the streets in the academy, this man was the interviewer that interviewed the new students.

He walked to a house behind a field and went in. Entering the house, the lights turned on as a big virtual screen popped up from the transmitter on the table.

"Greetings master" another person was shown on the screen, wearing black and had the symbol of the sun on his chest. The only weird thing is that the sun was red in colour.

"Any progress?" the man asked the person as he poured himself a glass of wine and proceeded to sit on a couch.

"Yes master. We've located the artifact but it's in possession of the Phoenix clan currently" the man said.

"The Phoenix clan huh?" the man sat up and held his chin as he thought. It was suicide to offend the phoenix clan...but he needed the artifact very much.

"Sigh... prepare a special group to retrieve it" the man said. "Yes master" the virtual screen disappeared and went back into the blue circular transmitter as the call then cut.

"Just a little longer, I'll revive you my Lord" the man said looking at a picture of a man with two horns sitting on a throne. This person was the legendary black dragon that almost destroyed the world a long time ago and his purpose was to revive him.
