Chapter 15: Just Rain
Since Rain used the most basic spell by luck while meditating, he decided to try to improve his magic senses while he meditated as well… while he was overflowing with mana, it should be easier to control it.
As usual, he sat cross-legged and then began to focus on his spirit. His mind didn't have to be completely empty, but he couldn't have intense thoughts about anything. Otherwise, the state would be broken.
When Rain felt his body overflowing with mana, he tried to control it, but that only made the thin barrier around him disperse…
"I guess I was too fast and too eager," Rain thought. "If things were convenient, I would find a book at home that would let me use basic magic at home… maybe my old home had one."
It was useless to think about that, so Rain resumed his focus. Once again, it didn't take long for the aura to envelop him. He tried to control his mana this time, very slowly, almost in slow motion. Still, the barrier dispersed again.
"Why? Porque? Por qual?" Rain thought and then sighed. "I guess I can't control an active spell like this without canceling it. That or my control sucks… maybe I should increase my wisdom and Intelligence."
Rain needed one thousand mana points to be able to create the potion, after all. The downside was the fact that he could only recover one point per minute… so he could only make one potion per day… but that was a problem for the future.
"Focus, clear your mind, and focus only on your spiritual energy," Rain thought. "The answer must be inside me or some sort of weird thing like that."
Numerous times, that feeling of being overflowed with spiritual energy took over his body. Still, Rain didn't do anything aside from that. Even clearing his mind completely didn't help… Rain was pretty methodical; that was why he didn't mind doing the same thing every day when it came to boxing. Still, he could only not mind for so long without obtaining results.
Applying the same logic to magic perhaps wasn't the best way to go… in any case, Rain decided to do everything that he could. Even to use all of his free points into wisdom to increase his mana. In the end, he felt even more powerful than before when the aura enveloped him. It got thicker as well. Still… he failed when he tried to control it.
"The mana overflows through my whole body… huh," Rain thought. "In that case…"
Rain used the aura again, and this time, he stayed focused until he could feel his mana decreasing. He never did that for too long since he didn't like the feeling of getting weaker spiritually. It was more exhausting than anything. It was like getting dizzy instantly… and the recovery speed was even slower.
When his mana was emptied, Rain felt like the worse he had been… he never wanted to feel like that again. Still, once he began to meditate, he began to feel his spirit recovering. Naturally, he could recover one point of mana per second, but he could do that ten times faster while meditating. New n0vel chapters are published on

All of a sudden, it became eleven times… even without seeing it, he could level up Meditation before it could become a skill… that was good to know.
Still, that wasn't important; what was important was that Rain felt his body being filled with mana. His body was the vessel, but he wasn't like a large pot; his mana could only flow and stay in a path, and from that path, it would expand through the body and be emitted outside.
"It feels like another circulation system… but instead of blood, my mana flows through it," Rain thought when he opened his eyes.
Instead of controlling the mana outside, Rain tried to control it inside by making it pulse… he tried to make only the mana of some parts pulse until they began to leave his body through those parts. Eventually, Rain felt the mana leaving his hands in the shape of particles. It took a while, but he eventually learned that he had to give a goal for the mana before leaving his body, like taking the shape of a sphere flowing in one direction.

"I finally learned it… now I just have to sharpen the feeling; this should be the next basic step," Rain thought.
Still, Rain felt like he did something weird. He was planning to make money to buy books about magic, but he was trying to learn magic to make money…
After practicing for one week, Rain finally made his mana take a shape that could be controlled perfectly and also could affect the physical plane. He hit the ground behind his house, and it caused a small crack after the impact that made the dust fly away.
"Magic, huh… I still feel like punching things is better," Rain thought.
"Rain, where are you?" Leiah suddenly raised her voice.
"I am here," Rein suddenly appeared in a hurry," What is wrong?"
"Nothing is wrong. I just need to deliver some books since my boss wants them a bit earlier than usual," Leiah replied. "Can you keep an eye on Dana? You never did that before, but don't mess with anything in the house, and don't let Dana do the same."
"Okay," Rein said and then grabbed Dana, who was clinging to Leiah's leg.
"Reiindall!" Dana said.
"It is Rain, just Rain," Rain said.
"Reiindall!" Dana said while pulling Rain's cheeks.
Rain thought that his mother wouldn't take long to return, but she didn't return that day…
