It was early in the morning when Tron woke up from his slumber.
Blood Rage had exhausted him ntally and physically and he had imdiately slept off the mont he dropped the gaton Blade. He wasn't even able to check his loot from the servants he had killed.
Tron slid a panel of his roof to the left and took the loots out.
There was a total of one hundred and twenty silver notes. One hundred from Kane and twenty from the other five servants.
Tron was slightly shocked, wondering how Kane was able to get a hundred silver notes when he was an ordinary servant head.
The second other thing he got was also from Kane. It was an old book made purely from the flesh of humans and even Tron frowned upon touching the book.
There was no title on the book, only the face of nurous horrified human faces contoured the lines of the book cover.
Tron raised an eyebrow and then proceeded to read the book.
The Unknown book actually contained a secret technique on how to forcefully activate and fill the Arcana Cortex and beco an Acolyte Mage in just 3 days!
"It's no wonder Kane jumped from 40% activation rate to acolyte in just a few days."
However, the process was simply too horrifying.
One needed the Arcana Cortex of a hundred live humans. The Arcana Cortex organ has to be removed from a live human otherwise, the ritual would never work.
After which, the organ must be stored in a blood pool made from the sa hundred humans then when the preparations are complete, one could begin the ritual and consu the hundred arcana cortex within an hour.
Reading this, Tron didn't feel disgust nor did he feel pleasure. This world was a jungle and only the fittest survived.
The hundred humans used were probably the servants that had been going missing within the forest.
No one knew they had been sacrificed to strengthen Kane's Magi's path.
Tron didn't disdain Kane for this as there was no doubt in his mind that if he also possessed an Arcana Cortex, he wouldn't hesitate to use this thod either, no matter the cost.
Because to beco a Mage in this world was equivalent to being a king everywhere one steps foot in.
Tron sighed at the insightful book and turned to the next chapter. It was actually a summoning spell. It was the small spell Kane had used to summon the Vengeful Ghost Demon.
Tron smacked his lips. The creature had been too powerful. At this mont, he couldn't help but think back to the world toppling beautiful face he had seen at the end.
Tron shook his and thought he might just be delusional. Maybe because it had been a long ti since he's had so. He wasn't sure if Martha would be in the mood anyti soon, seeing as the Competition was about to comnce.
They required the life span of the host to perform the spell.
And if one wasn't a mage, then it would require the souls of ten humans, not a day older than 30.
Between this page was a bookmark with a finger-sized gourd hanging from it. The gourd seems to be made from the bone of a creature.
There were already 6 faces by the side of the gourd. aning there were four more souls to complete the gourd. Tron imdiately decided to keep the book.
He was already at a disadvantage in this world and was ready to use anything he could get to even those odds.

...
Tyrion wasn't surprised to see his progression bar jump from 0.1 to 90 percent.
The demon was way above his level, it was natural his body adapted and increased his strength after tanking 3 powerful strikes.
His body was neat for battle and battle seed to be the fastest way to advance. However, he wouldn't go around, courting death. Mages weren't ordinary humans. They can hold grudges for more than a hundred years.
Naturally, Tron was starting to get the hang of his ability.
The adaptation increased the stats used in battle. Like his battle with the demon.
He had used his agility to move his body and narrowly avoided his kidney being punctured. Which leads to an increase in Agility and physique.
In the second strike, he had also used his agility to twist his neck a few inches away, also increasing the sa stats.
However, he had used the entirety of his attribute, except mana at the third attack, leading to the increase in his three main attributes.
Tron only sighed he wasn't able to increase his limit points to a thousand. He really wanted to see what a rare ability would look like.
However, one thing he did notice was that he could actually upgrade his adaptation ability!
He imdiately wanted to find soone to battle with. However, he cald himself down. During the entrance competition, he would get all the points he wanted.

"Tron!"
In the early dawn, Sethra walked over anxiously.
"What happened?" Tron was about to leave for the forest once more. He was aiming to reach at least a 4-tier acolyte mage before the start of the examination.
"I heard that Kane and a few others were killed in Bane's forest last night! This incident has drawn a lot of attention and discussion, and all the servants are spooked. Rumor has it that a mage mistakenly released a demon who snuck into the servant's manor, butchering the servants for als and rituals!"
