Chapter 143: Training in the Training Space

Even though this is not a real currency in the world and only applies as a currency for magicians, the amount that Blue tries to charge from me is quite expensive. It is hard to collect a hundred shards and now Blue is trying to get me that much? That is a total rip-off!

"You should try it first before complaining. It is already too cheap compared to using a real practice place where you can potentially destroy it if you used too much strength. Besides, time will freeze in the real world while you are practicing inside this practice hall that I made. You can practice here for a year inside but not even a second will pass in the real world."

"Isn't that bad enough? I will be wasting a few years of my life in that place and once I get out, nothing will change at all?!"

"You misunderstand. When I said time will freeze, that includes aging. As long as you are inside the place, even if you stay there for 100 years or more, you will not age. Sure, your senses might be saying that you spent a lot of years already in your life but not really. You don't even need water and food inside. If you wanted to practice and get better on it, then you should just accept my offer."

Hearing the explanation, I think the price still did not make sense. All of the functions he is talking about is just too big! If time stops in here and you can spend a lot of time inside and nothing will change in the real world but you already managed to practice a lot like you spent half of your life just to perfect magic? Then 100 pieces of shards are considered cheap!

"What the hell man? Now that you said it, 100 shards are too cheap! Aren't you going to be on the losing side with that amount?"

"..."

...

The 100 shards I collected were all lined up on the desk.

"What should I do next?" I asked.

"Use the camera of the phone and capture a photo on those stones. Make sure every stone can be seen on the camera."

Following the instructions, the surroundings changed immediately. I am currently standing in an open field with nothing but green grass around me and the blue sky. The only thing that stands out is the mannequin standing in the middle of the field. It is so eyecatching as it looks like a real person standing.

"Welcome to the training grounds, Kazuma. For the next few hours, days, months, or years you will be staying here, to practice your magic spells. The mannequin will act as your sparring partner. Don't worry about breaking him, once a part of the mannequin is destroyed or disintegrated, or the whole body itself disintegrated, he will be immediately replaced. Also, the whole surroundings will self repair itself. Even if you go on a rampage here and do wreckage, everything will be fixed back to normal once again. Now, I won't bother you anymore. If you wanted to get out of the place, just call me and I will transport you out."

After that, the whole place became quiet. Aside from the wind blowing once in a while in the grasses, nothing else can be noted here. Cracking my knuckles and stretching, I grinned and flick my fingers.

"Time to do some magic!"

...

Before Kazuma entered the training ground and stopped the time, a few magicians who are all wearing black robes with a violet eye embroidered on the back of their robes gathered on a hall with prestigious air in it. What is more, it looks like the place is being invested a lot by a tycoon, seeing the walls and pillars are all covered in gold with rubies being socketed in many pillars.

The place's atmosphere is very heavy and any normal person who is not used to the place will surely drown. On the other hand, the magicians covered in black robes are all emitting evil aura that seems to be so abundant, you can see the "evil" auras flying around even if you are a normal human and possess no normal magic talent.

Everyone is a bit busy talking to others while some are just idle and doing other things while waiting. Then, on the large altar placed on the stage, a person appeared from it like some sort of phantom image. The moment that person appeared, everyone present immediately bends to their knees and bowed down their heads.

"Greetings to Light-sama," the magicians in robes said without lifting their heads.

"How are the preparations for the upcoming merge plan? Are there any obstacles blocking our path?" the guy asked as he sits down to the altar itself.

"Reporting to Light-sama, everything is well and the preparations are working as planned. Nothing is currently being held back."

"Good. Looks like things are progressing without attracting the eyes of the pesky magicians who think they are the guardians of the world that didn't care for them."

"Additional report, Light-sama, it looks like a recent development had occurred and one the dark generals has to retreat after the confrontation of a few magicians who responded to the incident happening while the general is gathering the energy," another magician came to report.

"Hoooo, interesting. Call this general and let me have a conversation with him. All of you may return to your job."

After that, everyone in the hallway except the guy on the altar disappeared from thin air, which will freak out everyone left behind. When the hall returned to its silent atmosphere, the guy in the altar grinned and closed his eyes before he disappeared out of thin air once more.

"Looks like I have new things to play again this time. Hehehe..."

...

I lay on the floor exhausted. This is the most tiresome thing I have ever done in my whole life. Those little work out being done in gyms or what is nothing compared to the training and practice I have been doing. I look at the dummy that I have destroyed countless times but was always repaired after the incident.

"F*CK, THESE SPELLS ARE TOO RIDICULOUS TO DO! This is troublesome!"

"Stop whining dumbass, I think you also need to rework your mouth too to stop spouting nonsense. You already know many of the magic spells you tried learning so why not continue to career it?"

Once again, I stood up and gathered all the mana I can exert and started to throw it to the mannequin. I usually repeat this method again and again before I hit another hurdle. One thing is for sure, the hurdle is much plenty than enlightenment of the spell. Most of the spells I managed to master are easy at first but once I reach the very middle of the learning process, I would immediately get into a hurdle. Most of the time, it is due to the uncontrollable surge of power that will suddenly manifest while trying to perfect the spell. But that doesn't mean I am giving up...

"Again..."

...

10 years passed by in a flash...

Of course, inside the training ground, in reality, it is still the same time when I left. But during that timespan, I managed to master the six spells of the inheritance from the Vermillion Bird, Suzaku, and the three spells from the White Tiger, Byakko. I made sure that they are going to be in a way that can be used in multiple ways.

Trials and errors made me realize that my skills in immediate learning of magic are too naive. All of those magic spells I have used these past months are all just the shallow part of the spell. However, out of these 10 years, I have stayed inside this training hall, I managed to break every single hurdle I got by sacrificing my sanity and my patience. Now, it is time to go back and perform the things I have to do.

"Are you sure you will go back? You will need to give me another 100 shards for the usage of this room once again if you wanted to go back after going out. Also, since you have learned the deepest parts of the inheritance, the other undecipherable magic spells are now possible to be learned too."

"Those can wait. I will be coming back to the real world."

"My, even though time did not flow that much, you seemed to have matured. Oh well, if you insist, I will send you back."

I blinked my eye a bit and my surroundings returned to the usual look of my room. It was like I was transported back to the past, but that wasn't it. I checked the magic spell of my fireball that has been perfectly mastered after the magic training I did. As soon as the black flame appeared in my hand, I grinned to myself. It is time to go and raid the lesser G.A.T.E.S and test my newfound spells.
