"Just like how a cultivator's rank is determined by their body cultivation technique, the rank of a mage is also determined by the number of magical runes in their sea of consciousness, and they are ranked based on their auxiliary title. For rank 1, 2, and 3 they are referred to as low-rank mages, for rank 4, 5, and 6 they are referred to as intermediate mages, while for the rest of them, they are referred to as high-rank mages.
"And basically every strong and wealthy family, has a set of the first three magical runes, for simple the kalamas family however, the inner circle is said to have the first five sets of magical runs, while for even higher rank families, only the top family or similar high ranking noble families might have them.
"Now, enough with the explanations, go back to your quarter and start training the first magical rune I gave, the spear art forms and description will be sent to your quarter. One week from now I will check on your progress on both of them. Remember kid, do not exhaust your mental energy."
After listening to what Bruce said, Ainz nodded his head and bowed towards him slightly, so far he had realized his decision to join the guards had been the best choice, rather than escaping or stealing from the Kalamas family.
At this moment, Ainz was in his room, staring fixedly at the system panel in front of him.

---------------------------------
'As expected I didn't get any special rewards for unlocking Mana sense.' Ainz thought a bit disappointed.
Within the past few months, he noticed the system's unusual decrease in experience points, though the daily task was still the same as before, but the slight difference made it increasingly difficult to gain free attribute points like he usually does.
Although he was disappointed he wasn't that much bothered or worried about it, so far the experience he was getting over the years was no longer enough to level up, after reaching 100,000. After going to his attributes panel and there was nothing new, he soon closed it and opened the scroll in his hands.
Compared to the first time he opened the magical rune, Ainz was more relaxed however it didn't last for long as beads of sweat began to run down his forehead, and his eyelids began to feel heavy, for the first time since he reincarnated he was beginning to feel things were beginning to feel difficult, however, he wasn't worried since he had expected this.
'Although this is fucking hard! But it's still better than having a fucking spear sticking out of your chest, besides, I can keep going.'
Ainz thought with his focus entirely on the magical scroll, ignoring everything around him. As time went on from time to time, his hands would tremble, and his eyes gradually became bloodshot, however, Ainz didn't bulge.
At the same time, inside his sea of consciousness, waves from the sea kept surging and entering the center of the sphere, where Ainz's half-transparent figure could be seen standing with his eyes closed, and on his face was a deep frown.
The waves would crash on the borders of the sphere, and after some time the sphere would absorb some of it, enlarging its circumference by a few millimeters every time.
As this process kept going, the sea level would begin to settle and lower, and then, the vortex would begin to whirl gradually. After a while, Ainz abruptly folded the sheet containing the magical rune and let out a long breath, while lying on the ground with his arms behind his head.
'Fuck, my head feels like it's about to explode! However, the benefits far outweigh the tiredness I feel, although my sight might seem confused and even thinking becomes painful, however, thanks to wyvern regeneration, I feel much better but it only takes away the pain and not the freezing sensation and confusion I get every time.'
While he was thinking, he soon heard a knock on the door of his room. Ainz cursed a bit in his mind, before he stood up, as he did his legs felt wobbling making him lean against the wall and eventually managed to open the door.
Meanwhile, Lilith was on the other side of the door waiting for him with a radiant smile on her face, carrying two small bags and a case.
"Some guards brought these things to the building, saying I should give them to you, and the captain said it was from h.."
Those words had just left her mouth, when she suddenly noticed that her son was looking extremely pale and weak, with bloodshot eyes, his face was ashen, and he even seemed to have lost some weight while standing.
Her eyes were immediately teary as she looked at her son who was standing with nothing but the support of the door. Lilith didn't wait for him to say anything before interrupting him by hurriedly rushing towards her son to hold him by his shoulder.
The moment she held him, she began to move him towards his bed before yelling at him.
"What happened to you? What did the guards do to you Ainz? Was it Bruce? I knew nothing good would come out of letting you train with the guards, I am going to talk to Bruce right now!"
