"Let me be frank with you. It's fine for you to study Modern Magic, but if you go to other subjects, I won't be able to protect you much. Our Ermero Faction isn't that powerful yet."
Ermero II picked up a cigar and puffed on it. "If you plan to attend classes in other subjects, you must be prepared for the possibility of being attacked. I know you're very strong and won't be afraid of those magicians. What I mean is, try not to make a big deal out of it. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for me."
The scene of Ryuga instantly killing the monster in Peel City was deeply engraved in Ermero's mind.
If those magicians overreached themselves and wanted to dismember Ryuga's body for research, there was a high chance that they would be killed by Ryuga. There was nothing he could do about it.
If a lone magician wanted to attack him, it would be fine. But if a magician from a family tried to attack Ryuga and was killed instead, their family might find him. If that happened, he would be in trouble.
That was why he planned to give Ryuga a heads-up so that he wouldn't make a big deal out of it.
Ryuga nodded.
He understood Ermero II's meaning.
But he was the kind of person who liked to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. Once someone offended him, he would basically kill them without hesitation. Otherwise, it would be bad for him.
Therefore, he understood that it didn't matter if he didn't make a big deal out of it, as long as he didn't leave any traces behind.
In other words, he should do things cleanly and try to kill as many people as possible. As long as no one knew that he was the one who did it, no one would be able to find him.
Ermero II didn't know that Ryuga was already thinking about things that would make his stomach ache ten times over. He continued to remind Ryuga, "For the time being, you should stay in the dormitory of Modern Magic. Most of the students in this subject live there. Grey lives there as well. She can take you there later."
"There's nothing else I need to tell you … By the way, I forgot to ask you, have you opened all the magic circuits in your body?"
Emelo II suddenly thought of something and said to Ryuga, "When we were in Peel City, I didn't see you use magic, so I guessed that you might not have even opened your magic circuit. It's the most basic thing to use magic. Without it, you can't even use magic."
"I do have some magic in my body, but I don't know about the magic circuit," Ryuga answered honestly.
In the end, he was a complete layman when it came to magic. Although he had [Common Sense], it was limited to that. He had no idea what his magic circuit was like or what his talent in magic was like.
The [Anonymous Spiritual Base] did give him mana, and he did figure out the [Mana Enhancement] technique. However, it was a technique that even magic apprentices could use, so it was not difficult at all.
"Give me your hand."
Emelo II said to Ryuga.
Ryuga did as he was told, and Emelo II placed his hand on his wrist.
In the next moment, Ryuga felt a strange magic entering his body from his wrist, checking the condition of his body.
Ryuga did not refuse. A magician's body was their biggest territory. As long as he wanted to, he could completely block the magic outside. However, at this moment, it was obvious that Emelo II was helping him, so he was not stupid enough to refuse.
"Hmm … Something must have happened to you in the past, so a few magic circuits in your body have been opened. However, it doesn't seem to be all of them. I'll use this opportunity to open up your magic circuits as much as possible."
Ryuga understood.
The reason he could have mana was because the [Anonymous Spiritual Base] had entered his body and strengthened him. However, that was only the lowest level of strengthening, and all his attributes stopped at E-.
This meant that when the [Anonymous Spiritual Base] entered his body, it had opened up the lowest level of magic circuits for him.
"Imagine a switch. As long as you turn it on, you can open up the magic circuits in your body and use your mana."
Emelo II pointed out to him. "I know that you don't have such a switch in your body, but magic circuits are simulated nerves and need to be controlled through 'meditation.'"
The essence of magic circuits was a simulated nerve in a magician's body. It was similar to the blood vessels that transported blood, but it was a pathway that did not actually exist. Magic circuits were imaginary things, but as long as a magician could control these imaginary nerves, they could convert the life force in their body into mana for their own use.
Switch … Ryuga thought for a moment, and an explosion scene appeared in his mind.
Then, he suddenly felt a burning sensation in his body, as if there was a fire roasting him.
This wave of heat came and went quickly.
Then, he "saw" that there seemed to be a few circuits in his body that were not there before.
There were a total of 13 circuits. There were eight main circuits and five auxiliary circuits.
"After all, it's the first generation. Your ancestors have never produced a magician, so it's natural that the number of circuits is relatively ordinary. In fact, this number is already considered good in the first generation. Normally, there are only a few magicians in the first generation," Emelo II explained.
"Also, although the number is relatively ordinary, the quality is good. The precision and toughness are guaranteed. If the number is rated D, then the quality is around B."
After all the magic circuits in Ryuga's body were opened, the mana value on the [Spiritual Base Model] at the bottom left of Ryuga's vision suddenly changed.
It jumped from the lowest E- to D +.
After the magic circuits were opened, Emelo II retracted his hand and sat back on his antique chair.
"Use [Basic Ability Increase Opportunity]. Limit the increase to [Mana]."
Ryuga silently gave this order to the [Anonymous Spiritual Base] in his body. Then, a warm current emerged from his body and spread to his limbs and bones.
The next moment, the mana value that had been raised to D + rose again to C +.
Ryuga looked inside his body.
The magic circuits in his body suddenly increased from the original 13 to 30 at that moment.
There were 18 main circuits and 12 auxiliary circuits.
"Then, I'll excuse myself."
Ryuga's expression did not change. He bowed to Emelo II and walked out of the office after the other party waved his hand.
