Caelus was walking with a huge smile painted on his face.
He felt so refreshed. It felt the same way when he got close with Hikari. It felt like a reassurance.
It was as if another healing was being made inside his soul.
His mind suddenly stopped when he saw a huge tower in front of him
"I-is this…"
[As expected of Master, you've realized that this place contains strong Mana and Energy.]
"This…"
[It is the Sanctuary Academy set up by the founders.]
"Academy!"
He couldn't believe it. He was just gone for two months, but they were able to establish school already?
He excitedly traveled towards the tall tower.
He immediately knew it was no ordinary school. It was a school teaching Mana and Energy as he could feel the surging power coming from the building!
Even from outside where he was, he could feel the Mana flow of different people from one room to another. There were also other rooms which practiced Energy instead. It was fascinating just thinking about it. He was excited to see more of it.
He quickly bypassed the gate surrounding the academy and entered. Because he was the owner of Sanctuary Shelter, the security wasn't alerted by his trespassing. He couldn't care less about that. He just wanted to take a look at the potential of the Academy.
"Hah! T-they… are already at Tier 3 of Mana? Stage 3 of Energy? It feels like I'm nothing compared to everyone here."
[That's not true, Master. You're actually the only one who can manifest both Mana and Energy.]
"Huh? Not everyone can use Mana and Energy?" He was half-expecting it, but he was still surprised to hear confirmation. It meant he was indeed unique in his own way.
[So far, we haven't discovered anyone who can wield both.]
Although surprised, he could easily accept the anomaly. Because he was an anomaly himself.
*Was it because the original me was more leaning towards Energy? But the body has potential for Mana? Thinking about it, it would be natural for Sho to be more leaning towards Mana since he's lazy. I bet he would create automatic magics that would make his life easier.*
"Whoa! Production classes are also available?!"
[Yes, Master. It was specifically included because Hikari insisted about it. Asahi supported the idea. The potential of Production Classes are endless at the moment. But that being said, we are having a hard time educating them as we only have Professor Alisa and her team. There's a lack of personnel to take care of other areas such as Farming, Chef, Blacksmithing, Tailoring, Engineering and so on.]
[We've discovered at least twenty different types of Production Class or Non-battle Classes. We're still trying to organize the education manual for Production Classes.]
"Still… This is amazing enough. Ah! I almost forgot, I'll upgrade my System before I start helping out with giving ideas. I have lots of ideas coming in my head right now. Wait, Sanctuary,"
*I really have to thank Otaku Sho for his gaming knowledge. Upgrade System.*
…
…
…
He had got a bunch of notifications before the System finally "shut down" and started Upgrading.
*Hmm…? I don't feel any difference at all… oh well, maybe in twenty four hours I'll know.*
"I'll look around the Academy for now, Sanctuary and take note of my suggestions and pass it to the other founders later when I'm done."
[Understood.]
"... Mana is the source of power for any magician. Any particle in the air can have a Mana in it, however, you must not recklessly absorb any random Mana you sense. Purifying Mana is essential before you can actually store it inside your Mana Core…"
"Huh… I didn't know that…"
[Master, as I've said, you are a special case. You can absorb Impure Energy and Impure Mana and you don't even have to store it in your Mana Core, that might also be why you don't have to bother with purification.]
"Is the curriculum of Mana similar to Energy? I haven't dwelled deep in the Mana, I'm more familiar with Energy. But this sounds cool."
[They are basically the same because it never happened for anyone to have both Mana and Energy inside one body. Both Mana Core and Energy Storage have the same principle. Only by purifying could you let it settle inside your human body.]
"Hah… then I think I won't be able to recommend anything with Mana and Energy. I might suggest something that could mess people up because it is incompatible with people. I'll try looking at the Production Classes then."
As he walked towards the section of Production Class, he noticed how it started to be noisy.
"Have you tried injecting Mana in potion creation?"
"I've tried but it seems not suitable… or maybe there's a ratio for it to stabilize Mana injection. Did you succeed in your side?"
"Anyone who can give tips about farming? I don't know why it manifested as my skill!"
"Ah, you should look for Auntie Jessica."
"The foreigner…? The language is just a wall I can't pass!"
"Use the translator!"
"It's still not updated enough! There's still a lot of mistranslations!"
Caelus stopped hearing that. "Translator?"
[I've been trying to create a translator with the help of the Founders and engineers. The progress is slow as we don't know every language there, but with the help of the Founders, we're still progressing. I'm currently learning the most used language here at the moment.]
"Did the language bundle help?"
[Yes, but since I still need to manually know all of it, it's taking time.]
"There's nothing that we can do, then. It would be helpful if we have any programmers in our shelter."
[Programmer?]
"We don't, right? I know someone who would be a good candidate but I don't know if he would still be alive."
[I'll look for him, Master.]
"I only know his first name. Duke."
[It's too vague. And all the lingering marks of people you know had vanished in you except for the Prophet. It might have something to do with touching the Prophet.]
"I understand. Hm… the Production Class is much messier than I imagined. Can't we separate the classrooms by their classes?"
[It's possible, but some classes only have one so it ended up like this.]
"How about creating a classroom for people who have the same field of class if they reach five persons? It would be like when they reached the quota, they would be entitled for their own classroom to make their own discussion. This way, it won't look like this. It feels more like a market than a classroom for studying."
[That's a great suggestion! I'll note this and pass it down later for discussion and approval.]
As Caelus observed, he suggested more and more. Some were random, some were inspired by the original Sho's knowledge. He even suggested a training room and sparring room for combat class to be more experienced in using their skills. He asked if it was possible to create a simulation room that could help combat class experience battle against other monsters, species or race. Sanctuary said it would take more time to create that.
But he was happy with the progress. It was good that they were building something out of almost nothing.
He talked and talked until they finally reached the Castle into the Meeting Hall.
