Anton found that the novice mages were listening to Frederick giving a lecture about magic when he arrived at the suite. He forgot that the mages would not be able to practice their magic without him there since it would exponentially increase the time they needed to memorize a spell.

  “I thought you’d spend some time catching fish?” Frederick asked when he saw Anton enter the room.

  “I find that there’s really no need for me to do so. The crew actually caught tons and tons of fish already and Harun said that if I wanted to have some, I can purchase them directly from the sailors and it will not cost a lot.”

  “We knew that and I think we told you that. We thought that you wanted to fish for the experience,” Walter said.

  Anton just shrugged and grumpily went to his room and shut his door which made the novice mages ugh.

  Everyone returned to memorizing their spell and casting their spells on the mana power bank but the mages already started using the huge power bank that Anton crafted to look like a coffee table.

  During lunchtime, Anton joined the others to eat lunch and Frederick reminded him that there would be a need for another coffee table mana power bank soon. Anton contempted about the mana that was being stored from the spells that the others were casting so they could empty their spell slots. He thought that with so very few enchanted items that Anton had made, the mana power bank was a waste. The fact was, his power bank could only power up the mana storage of the items that he had made so he asked for suggestions from the mages on how they could use the mana that was being stored.

  Unfortunately, no one could think of any, and surprisingly the best suggestion came from Anton’s sister, which was to create an outlet on the huge mana power bank coffee table that would let the mana go back to the environment if they needed to.

  According to Anna, the power bank was still convenient compared to finding a pce to cast their spells to empty their spell slots. It would be too bothersome for them to leave the suite just to cast their spells and then return to the room to start memorizing again, not to mention that there was still a possibility that the assassin might target them if they were alone.

  Anton agreed with his sister so after lunch, he stored the coffee table mana power bank inside his inventory so he could modify it inside his Diablo II system.

  Thankfully, the outlet that would release the mana stored in the coffee was simple enough since Anton only needed to modify the mana structure to create an extra mana pathway to a switch that could be turned off or turned on to release the mana.

  Anton tested releasing the mana several times and found that there was no issue so exited his Diablo II system and brought the coffee table mana power bank to the others.

  When Frederick tested the switch that would release the mana, everyone was astonished to discover the side effect of releasing the stored mana in the suite. The suite was slowly becoming filled with tamed mana and every mage felt it. Apparently, the mana that was stored and then released became tamed and not raw anymore allowing the mages nearby a huge benefit in memorizing and casting their spells.

  Frederick excitedly told Anton that they could actually market the coffee table power bank as a magic item that would increase the tamed mana in an environment allowing mages to practice their magic easily which was almost like a mini-effect of the Meditation Aura.

  That meant that inside the suite, once it was filled with mana from the mana power bank, the advantage that the mages would have would increase again and that visibly excited Frederick. Anton knew the reason why Frederick was like that was because the mage was now experiencing how the genius mages increased their rank. Anton remembered when Frederick told them that his talent was considered very poor and reaching the archmage rank was just an illusion of a dream but now, with his aura and now, the environment that would be filled with tamed mana because of an item that he had made, would allow Frederick to increase his wizardly rank fast enough that he could see a chance that he could reach the archmage rank in his lifetime as long as he stick with Anton and his family made the mage’s blood boil.

  Even Walter looked as excited as Frederick. The rich noble knew that his talent for wizardry was poor. Even poorer than that of Frederick’s but while he was with Anton and his family, there was a chance to increase his rank fast enough as well while they were on the ship.

  After that exciting discovery, Frederick emptied the coffee table power bank with all of its stored mana then the mages started casting their spells onto the mana power bank again. Anton returned to hunting the best gear for his Padin until four in the afternoon. After that, they all stopped practicing magic.

  It was already an unspoken rule that the magic practice would stop at around four. Anton noticed that the suite was now almost filled with mana but he also noticed that the tamed mana did dissipate slowly.

  Anton’s father and the other arrived early and they all spent time talking about what they did for that day. Frederick shared with everyone the newly discovered side effect of letting out the mana that was stored in the coffee table mana power bank inside the suite.

  “Is it going to affect normal people?” Anders asked Frederick.

  “In a way. According to the mages that I talked to, living in mana rich environment will allow normal people to become healthier and live longer. Because of that, several mages conducted some tests to see if that would allow regur people to become mages if they live in a pce that’s rich in mana but the test didn’t yield any result.”

  Anders then shrugged and said that as long as mana-rich rooms would not affect anyone negatively, it was fine.

  Frederick had to expin that the coffee table mana power bank could now be considered one of the most valuable items that Anton had made and would be able to bring a gargantuan amount of coins to the family. The coffee table would be particurly valuable to magic schools or noble families who were raising mages because the mages could cast their spells onto the table to empty their spell slots and then once the table was full of mana, the mana would then be released to a room which would fill that room with tamed mana that would allow mages to practice magic better. So the coffee table mana power bank would create a mana loop in an enclosed area that would greatly benefit mages.

  Everyone in the suite gaped at Frederck then as one took a look at the coffee table that was now worth a lot of coins.

  “Your family is truly blessed by the goddess of magic,” Antonia softly said to Anders.

  Anton just shrugged and told his father that once they reached New Drennor, they could sell some coffee table mana power bank to increase the family’s wealth, and Anders just absently nodded. Selena looked particurly excited as well as her two friends, Norma and Belue. Anton knew that Selena was probably thankful that she fell in love with his father since their family truly had the potential to be one of the richest in any pce they went to.
