Ervas glanced at his status, the other numbers increased quite well, but his mana… was something completely ridiculous.

"The more I glance at this the crazier it's got… I think in an hour I might surpass 2 million…" muttered Ervas.

"Ervas, Mana! Mana!" said Gaia, floating around Ervas while feeding on his insane amount of Mana, he had truly become a Mana Source now.

"My soul is now a Soul Void? What does that mean? Am I truly hollow? Perhaps my previous evolution also affected this… Well, these are amazing news, even if it's too surprising, I cannot do much other than to be surprised, and I don't like to waste time being surprised," said Ervas, putting his mana to work.

He then realized that the whole house was storming with every item floating around, his 'No-Attribute' mana had gone wild and it was automatically using the 'Telekinesis' skill.

Ervas closed his eyes as he concentrated his mind.

He glanced at his soul and inserted his own mind into it.

Then, he found himself inside of it… a completely white space.

Inside of the white space, a void, resembling a black hole had been opened, leaking more and more Mana inside without stopping.

"From where this Mana comes from?" he wondered.

Ervas assumed that it could be the endless source of mana that inhabits the entire world of Kritias, the source of the existence of all.

"Are gods capable of this as well? I remember hearing and studying about them as Anastacia, they were said to have immense energy quantities,"

He tried to move to the void and glanced inside of it.

Then, he found eternal darkness within the void… but as his sight increased by using 'Special Five Senses', he countless dots of white light, colorful clouds, and even small planets into a faraway distance.

"This… Am I hallucinating?"

Ervas was not hallucinating, what he was looking at was real.

As he glanced at it, a voice spoke to him.

"You, the one who has opened the void of his soul, we welcome you to our group, young one"

The voice was that of an old man… but incredibly dry.

"Who could you be?" asked Ervas, calmly.

"My name cannot be pronounced by you, but I am someone that lives within the void… Your bloodline attracted my attention. I do not have bad intentions; I am nothing more than an observer. Though… have you awakened an ability to summon beings, by any chance?" asked the voice, seemingly friendly.

"Not yet, I am about to, I need to finish reading that book," said Ervas, nonchalantly.

"I see. Whenever you do, hit me up, I will grant you one of my children, treat it well" said the entity, disappearing.

"Okay, thanks a lot," said Ervas.

The entity, whose presence was incredibly overwhelming seemed very friendly to Ervas and even talked very casually. It disappeared just as it appeared, faintly and without any disturbance.

"Who was that? Well, he seemed nice… though I feel like I should not trust otherworldly entities so easily… Well, not like I can do much. Its presence pretended to be faint, but it was indeed incredibly overwhelming, akin to gods. If it wanted, it would have easily crushed me to death, but it did not," analyzed Ervas.

Who could this entity be and how did he guess Ervas's bloodline? Was it initially attracted to this from the very beginning?

"Perhaps the origin of this being is also the origin of the creatures that mother can summon, and that I will soon do as well… I felt a bit of familiarity with him though. Damn, I should have asked him if he knew about my mother," thought Ervas, finally sending his mind back to his body.

The storm of mana had suddenly ceased, and everything was now calm.

Although he felt the void constantly giving him Mana, he did not feel its overwhelming force leaking as crazily. Perhaps the presence of this entity helped him in some strange way.

"I even feel a bit serene after talking with him, just who was it?" wondered Ervas for the last time, resuming his work. He was currently enhancing equipment that he had created by refining bones and blade horns.

The materials were refined courtesy of his father's Spirit, Gnome, using the 'Material Refining', which helps to change the shape of objects to a lesser extent.

By abusing this spell with his father's help, he managed to create better designs for equipment, instead of bones and horns stuck together, he created actual plates out of such materials.

"Now with this mana… done"

Ervas used his mana to 'enhance' the equipment by using Alchemy. The plates made out of bones, horns, and blade horns were now sturdier and had a silver luster.

After finishing this, Ervas began to expand his mana 'domain' outside, reaching his plants and feeding them with his mana. The plants seemed bewildered at first, but immensely happy.

"I have a lot, so feel free to eat as much as you want to grow stronger," he said.

The villagers could not feel Ervas's Mana even after its exponential increase as they lacked any type of mana detection. At best, they would feel the wind being a bit strange, but all of them were talentless in magic or just had never developed or awakened it.

However, Jason felt the presence of Ervas and seemed a bit concerned.

As Ervas did all his task even better, he finally began to read the last pages of the book, its knowledge was impregnated on his mind as he felt something within his comprehension of the world awaken.

���The entity from back then… and this, it all somehow connects… so my lineage is connected to the demons that served as bridges between the worlds? This gets more and more complicated… and interesting,"

"This is probably why my tribe was exterminated, to begin with… most likely the bright gods were the ones that realized how dangerous was to befriend alien entities such as that being from before… Perhaps they feared an eventual invasion?"

Ervas closed the book as he sighed in relief.

"Well, I have read it all… Ah, there it is,"

From his left hand, a small, crimson tattoo appeared. It had the form of a strange mollusk with tentacles.

[You acquired the [Summon; Level 1] Skill!]

"Well… how do I use this?"

Ervas sat down on the wooden floor, glancing at Gaia resting over his head.

"Do I just…?"

As Ervas was about to summon something, Jason came running from the door.

"Ervas! They finally came for us! They are over twenty mercenaries! We must run, right now! They are going wild outside, let us use this opportunity to run away!" shouted Jason, bewildered as he began to grab a large leather pouch, putting the most essential things inside.

"Really? That fast? But why are they attacking the people if they are after me?" wondered Ervas, floating with his vast mana and taking a peek outside.

Barbaric men were assaulting houses and grabbing on the women of the village, while the men tried to defend themselves, due to their illogical behaviors.

"Aren't you mercenaries? What are you doing?!"

"The demon boy is in that house! That one!"

"My daughter! Give it back! What are you doing?!"

"My house!!!"

"Stop, stop!"

A bald and scarred man laughed as he grabbed on a young girl, glancing at her developing body with lustful, voracious, and disgusting eyes.

"Gahahaha! Shut up, the Duke sent us for that demon boy, but we already guessed that you were just lying for some gold coins! Now you shall be punished! It is a royal decree by the King's grandson, what can you do about it? Gahahaha!"

The man began to touch the young girl, as she cried, Ervas also saw several men trying to defend the women from these barbaric 'mercenaries', and some of them were already killed, bleeding in the ground.

"I am not a hero, but I am not a bad person either… also, these mercenaries seem very suspicious to me, do mercenaries try to assault innocent women and kill people so openly? I never experienced human society in Kritias, so I do not know the norms… Well, they look like very juicy Experience Points, might as well take care of them and then get out of here," said Ervas, as a dozen plants began to move to his commands.

"Ervas, what are you doing?!" shouted Jason.

"Attack!"
