The Rise Of Calamity

[Absorbing manuals...]

Suddenly, as if all the manuals had turned into energy, they began to vortex around me, causing huge fluctuations of energy to come out of the room I was in, but in the room was made for mana insulation, most of the mana remained inside.

Only those in higher stages could tell that something was happening, yet none of them truly knew what.

*BOOM*

A loud noise shot out of my room while simultaneously, cracks began to emerge from under me, spreading to the walls of the room before being covered in white energy that started to fix them.

At the same time, a golden aura had begun to slowly seep out of my body, while a string of notifications that I could not focus on due to the amount of information pouring into my brain, began to ring in my ears.

[NOTE: It is an art mainly used for defense. It allows one to use their enemy's power, against them, tiring them out while making sure that you do not need to even throw a punch]

I could feel a flow of knowledge and energy shoot into my mind, forcing me to comprehend everything that was being sent my way at an even faster rate, causing me to simultaneously sweat buckets as I did so.

Gritting my teeth and kitting my brows, I carried on comprehending everything with my eyes closed, yet my comprehension speed significantly dropped after the same familiar sound began to ring in my ear constantly...

After listing all my elements, the ringing in my mind paused for a minute before beginning again, this time, however, with a different set of messages.

The annoying voice and the ringing finally stopped once again, however, I did not sigh in relief due to knowing that it was about to come back without warning.

Instead, I chose to focus wholly on comprehending everything that had just entered my brain since I had still not gotten past comprehending the battle art that had been injected into my brain as easily as injecting a vaccine into an unconscious patient.

In fact, I had gotten so deep into comprehending that when the noise finally began to ring in my head once again, I did not even realize it.

[Personal Mana Cultivation Technique has been created]

[Absorbing knowledge...]

The silence was the only thing that I could hear after that message, not that I was listening anyway due to me comprehending so hard, to the point that everything else became irrelevant and the only thing that began to matter in my eyes was the knowledge that was constantly entering my brain.

After 20 minutes of this on the outside and 200 minutes of comprehending for me, a ding rang in my head, yet even then it still did not shake my focus away from what I was focusing on.

[The host has entered a state of Apprehensiveness]

[Thinking speed has doubled]

[Comprehension speed has doubled]

[Calculation speed has doubled]

In Rose's room, one could see that 4 women were sitting on either side of the room while an awkward tension began to grow as seconds passed.

One could say that the tension was so thick that one could cut through it with a knife, but that would be an understatement. One could not be able to simply cut through it with a knife, instead, they would require a katana wielded by someone in the Astral plane to cut through it, since a normal knife would simply break after coming in contact with the tension.

One could probably put a block of coal within the room and expect it to turn into a diamond after a day or so.

After 2 hours of no one saying anything, Rose finally looked back and spoke up, making the other three tenses up, as if the tension and awkwardness in the room were not enough for them.

"She hasn't been out for 2 days now... Should we go and check up on her?" Rose asked out loud before turning away and looking at the stove once again.

"I mean, isn't it normal for someone to spend that long within a cultivation room?" Yuri asked, seemingly unworried about what happened to me, yet the reality was the complete opposite,

While I could say that she was worried about my well-being, in reality, she was only worried about the fact that if I do not come out of the cultivation room, she would not have anyone to spar against. In her eyes, everyone but me and Rose was weak, meaning the only way she could train was through me and Rose, and since Rose had told her that she would not be helping her, she was forced to choose me instead.

Another reason that she wanted to fight Rose was due to her fear of blood, and since she knew that rose could control blood, she wanted to fight her and slowly get used to seeing blood all the time without having any mind-crippling flashbacks in the middle of the fight.
