Jack didn't feel much confidence: Mana? 16%. Old Ghost? Out of commission. His own sate? Bad, with a leg and an arm limp. This time, he could truly only rely on himself.

"Ready? Can I get more time if I'm not…" Jack playfully answered, sighing to himself as he stood behind the man. The latter quickly brought him to a cluster of large capsules.
If anything, they looked like VR pods he had seen in his previous life. Wait… did a technology like that exist in this world thanks to magic?!
Yet, there was something scary about them, namely the warnings plastered all over. Those would have made anyone with a brain have second thoughts.

Ever felt asleep in the car, only for your dad to bring you to your bed? Well, same but with the Headmaster, and replace the car with a dangerous trial! This was one hell of a close call too!
