Chapter 253: How Can You Do That With Your Mana?
“You’re a void.”
What the fuck?
Mark could only scrunch up his face in confusion as he tried to understand what Luna was getting at. Mark knew he was not the one who controlled his mana movement fully. His system was the one in charge of moving his mana to the place where Mark wanted it to be. Does that mean that the system was making it so that no one would be able to notice Mark’s mana if he was not using it?
“But isn’t that a good thing? It prevents people from seeing me.”
Luna shook her head.
“No, it doesn’t. You’re literally the only living thing in the world that I have seen using mana like this. Everything has mana; the people, the plants, and even the animals have some mana. This means that no matter where I am, I can get a feel for what’s around me at all times. But for you, it’s different. Not only are you manaless right now, but you also appear on my radar as an anomaly. A void of nothingness in the middle of a stream of mana that should exist. I think that is how Merlin was able to find you the first time around. He noticed that void as well and figured out that you were hiding your mana too well. He might not be able to find you as quickly as before because we are together. Me being this close to you will fill up your void partly and prevent him from seeing your silhouette, but it is only a matter of time before someone as good as him can differentiate between my mana and your own.”
You have got to be kidding me. So there was a downside to being too good at using mana? Mark immediately asked the system if this was true!
[The system prevented the flow of mana to improve the growth of the user’s strength as well as the efficiency of the mana skills that the user possessed. The lack of mana flowing in the user’s body grants a much higher growth index to the user, and once mana is applied to the user’s body, the increase in power is exponentially higher than it would have been if mana flowed freely through the body.]
‘So, the answer is yes!?’
[…Yes, what Luna said is most definitely correct.]
‘Then just say so next time!’
[…]
Mark groaned in annoyance as he realized how irritating this situation was. How the hell was he supposed to know that being too good at controlling your mana would be a bad thing?
‘I need you to give me access to my mana again. Can you control it in a way that it would seem normal so that Merlin won’t be able to tell the difference between me and anyone else?’
[Doing this will reduce mana efficiency by 5% and will consume mana points. Does the user still wish to carry out this augmentation?]
‘Just do it. It’s better to lose 5% efficiency than to lose my life.’
[Very well. Augmenting Mana Flow.]
[…Augmenting Mana Flow]
[…Augmenting Mana Flow]
[…Augmenting Mana Flow]
[5 Point(s) of Mana have been permanently consumed]
[Mana flow has been properly augmented. For the period of augmentation, all mana-based skills will be 5% more inefficient than previously stated on the system tabs. If the user wishes to return to his original mana control, please inform the system and have your mana augmented once more.]
‘So I lost five points of mana permanently. Well, I can always get it back in no time, so it’s fine.’
Mark turned to Luna once he was done augmenting his mana.
“How about now, how does my mana look?”
“W-What did you just do?”
Luna was visibly stunned as she stared at Mark’s body. Just a moment ago, Luna couldn’t even feel any mana from Mark! There was nothing that could tell that Mark was beside her if you were trying to find him using only his mana, but now, it seemed like Mark was perfectly sending mana through his body just like her! That was impossible! How was he able to start moving mana like that without any practice or learning time!? Luna just saw Mark close his eyes for a few seconds and in the next moment, his mana was coursing through his body just like her own!
Luna still remembered how hard it was for her to learn how to use her mana when she was just starting out on mana control! It took her more than a week before she could even get her mana to move in the way that she wanted and it took another month before she could do it subconsciously! Mark just did all of that in a few seconds!
“Mark, what exactly is your blessing?”
Luna frowned in seriousness as she asked this question with a hard tone. She was confused and lost about what sort of blessing Mark actually had! Was Mark really just someone who was extremely strong? There were too many inconsistencies with Mark’s blessing that told Luna that there was a lot more to his power than just that!

Mark did not give Luna an answer to her question and she frowned at his constant evasion! There wasn’t a single person in the world that knew Mark’s abilities! It was almost like he was intentionally hiding it for some reason! Would it be so bad for her to know!?
Luna looked at the marks on the back of her hand and she actually contemplated using one of her absolute orders to force Mark to tell her what his powers were. Luna knew that Mark would not be able to disobey her since it was an absolute order and she would definitely get to know his blessing! But she also knew that this would ruin their relationship! If Luna wanted to survive in this place, then she needed to be on the same page as Mark at all times so that they could help each other. She wasn’t willing to ruin their relationship over something like this.
“Fine, don’t tell me, but we need to move again!”
“Hmm? Why? Isn’t it okay now that my mana is like yours?”
“No, it isn’t. Your mana suddenly came out from nowhere and that is an issue! It’s like a bucket holding water suddenly doubling in content without any warning! Merlin will definitely notice this! We need to go now!”
BOOM!
A massive explosion rocked the roof of the building they were hiding in and Mark wasted no time and bolted off the ground as he saw a massive piece of the roof falling on them! Mark slid to a stop a few meters away from the falling debris and he looked up to see Merlin smiling down at him from the roof with his staff held high in the air! Merlin rotated his staff once and the sky began to swirl about angrily as a massive storm gathered in the air.
Seriously. Fire, water, and now air? What the fuck is this guy not able to do? And why are they all high-level spells!?
