MMORPG: Strongest Assassin Online



"Okay, try it again," Alex said.

"Try what again?" the girl asked.

"The thing you did just now, try to feel my Mana again," Alex said.

"Okay," she said reluctantly and placed her hands on Alex's chest, it was impossible for a human Mana to suddenly increase in a few seconds but she still checked.

Alex took a deep breath and also closed his eyes, he could see the Mana moving in his body and he tried to grasp that feeling, the girl suddenly moved away from Alex but his eyes were still closed.

She was no longer touching him but his Mana was still moving around meaning he was doing it on his own, Alex's eyes were closed so he had no idea she was touching him anymore.

"What did you do?" the girl asked and Alex opened his eyes.

The concentration he had vanished and he could no longer move the mana around his body again.

"What do you mean?" Alex asked looking at her.

"Your Mana suddenly increase, what did you do, you knew this was going to happen right, that's why you told me to check again" the girl spoke.

'Shit, I forgot magic isn't that simple, what do I tell her–I'm a human from another world and I was given a system, that's rubbish' Alex muttered inwardly.

"What do you mean my Mana increased, did my Mana increase?" Alex asked in a surprised voice.

"Wait, you didn't know?"

"The first time you touched me I tried to control my Mana, I wanted to do it again that's why I told you to touch me," Alex said.

"Ohh, but your Mana suddenly increased, I thought you were responsible, never mind"

"Okay, so let's begin with the practice, what do I do first?" Alex asked.

"I touched you so you could feel the Mana in your body, if you are able to control the Mana in your body, you would be able to control your spells"

"Before we start I didn't ask for your name"

"Oh, that's right I'm Amy"

"I'm Alex,"

"Okay, to cast spells you must learn to control your Mana, normal basic Mana control are being taught to kids when they are little, I wonder how you missed that, but I'll teach you how I was taught"

"You saw what I did just now, I placed my hands on your body and infused a little Mana then you had a feeling right?"

"Yes, it felt like something was moving in my body" Alex replied.

"That's your Mana, though it's just the tip, but you were able to feel it moving, first I'll infuse a little Mana and you'll try to control it, are you ready?" Amy asked.

"Yes"

"Oh, and don't close your eyes," Amy said.

"I shouldn't close my eyes, but I'll need to concentrate"

"That's the problem, you don't need to concentrate, you need to be able to do it naturally, like breathing," Amy said.

"Okay, I accept the challenge"

"It isn't a challenge, your conditions are more favorable than mine, I was taught by a strict magic instructor, we were required to move our Mana to our hands and run around"

"Huh!! move it to your hands and run around"

"Yes, without breaking concentration, our magic instructor was able to sense Mana from miles away so if we mess up for even a second we start from the very beginning"

"That's rough"

"I was always the one who keeps failing and getting punished over and over, one particular day I trained till midnight"

"Then I taught my magic instructor hated me for being so weak but he knew I wasn't good at magic and he was trying his best to help me, when I came of age I didn't attend a magic academy, I thought it was no good, now I regret my actions, I really like magic"

"Maybe something can be done," Alex said as he thought about Jessica, he wasn't a mage but she made him a mage, maybe something can be done about her issue.

"Something, I know you are trying to make me feel better, so let's go back to what we were doing," Amy said as she placed her hands on Ray's chest.

Both of them were still naked but talks about magic had gotten their attention and focus, Alex needed to concentrate to control his Mana and Amy was happy to teach him.

"Good, now try to move it around, move it to your hands first," Amy said.

"Move it to my hands, move it to my hands, move it to my hands" Alex kept mumbling till he felt a sting in his chest and his concentration broke.

"Ouch," Alex said, this time it was more painful than the first time.

"You are trying too hard, it's your Mana, just let it flow to your hands, think about moving it to your hands" Amy spoke.

"Okay, let's go again," Alex said and Amy placed her hands on his chest again.

Alex took a deep breath and moved the Mana around his chest area first, then slowly he moved it to his shoulder and then his arms and finally it got to his palm, Alex could feel the Mana in his palm and once again he moved it to his chest, Alex took a deep breath again and let go of the mana and it flowed back into his Mana core.

"Wow, you got the hang of it" Amy smiled.

"I think you are really good at teaching, so what's next"

"Drawing Mana from your Mana core, and for this one, you'll need to concentrate harder so you can close your eyes if you like," Amy said.

"Drawing Mana from your Mana core?"

"Just now you were able to feel the Mana in your body because I infused a tiny bit of mine, you'll have to learn to draw Mana from your core to cast spells"

"How do I do that?" Alex asked.

"There's no trick in drawing Mana, you just have to do it"
