Chapter 108: Exiting seclution
Max finally exited the gaming club. He felt like shit. He needed to do a forced breakthrough and for his luck he succeeded. It was the third time he tried to get into the rank of a high mage but he failed time and time again. The first time he tried his luck, but he was not ready. The second time he was unlucky and here he got the message from Graham that he it was time to come to the Ruth empire capital named Ruthila. Max was very mad. If you want to understand his feelings, then you need to imagine how to it to try and take a big dumb when you have problem to push it out. Max felt like that piece of shit that was squeezed with force and could not be pushed out for a long time. All his body was sore. His head was ringing. He was in a very bad mood. He learned the skills Fly and Supernova by the system, but he did not have time even to try them out. It made him even more unhappy. He will have to learn the skill fly during the trip to the capital of the Ruth empire and he could not try a supernova out in the open until his return. He was not sure how it will work and how it could affect him and the surroundings. He was afraid he would kill himself with the mass attack skill. Or shoot it in the wrong way. It will be pathetic to die that way.
Max became a lot harder to talk to during the last two years. He lived in the simulation for around 700 years. It could cause anyone to change. Only Valeria could soften his heart. She had her "special" tricks to make Max nice and happy. However, Alisher, Peter and the others did not have those tools and because of that they sometimes got shouted by Max when they fucked things up and all of his rage will be downed on them. With how the hierarchy worked in the Yin Yang country the rage that Max showed towards his subordinates went down the ranks and the ones that suffered the most from it were the simple soldiers, guards or the people that were at fault for the fuck up that happened. Max was not kind and lenient for any slip up that happened in his country. He did his best and he expected everyone else to do at least ok.
When Max exited the capsule, he dressed up and got ready to depart. He was ready to fly all the way up to Ruthila. It was not a short trip. He hoped that he would at least master the skill until then. Max got to the city walls of Alexandria and said fair well to all of his higher ups. Valeria wanted to go with him, but Max refused. He needed someone to take care of the country. Also, he did not want her to get into the potential danger that he was heading towards her. That was the reason that Max refused to take the kids for the competition between countries. He did not care to stay as a level one country. He did not care about it at all. He was sure there will be a conflict arising and he did not know which way it will go. Max was sure that he could flee himself, but if he will need to protect someone it will be a problem. He did not want to leave his people behind, so he just went solo. He did not take the gaming club with him. He wanted to roam the world a little bit. To interact with the different people and just enjoy life. He wanted to have fun. Not to go into seclusion to survive in this world. He was already more than 1000 years total in seclusion. He already decided that after this meeting in the empire's capital he would just take a rest. He would be lazy and just do what his heart wanted.
Max departed from the city gates with the skill fly and people looked at him at aw, but after a short time it was changed with awkwardness when Max crashed into a nearby hill. Max got bruised from the head on impact, but he needed to keep the little dignity that he had left and just told everyone that he was fine, but he was fuming from the inside: 'System what the fuck is that skill!?!? Do you want me to die? Skill that is easy to use you say? You should call it kill yourself skill! If I was not a knight and just a simple high mage he would crush into the hill to death!'
Max was keeping his cool while he was still in the country of Yin Yang, but when he got out of the country borders and were on the lands of the other countries he did not hold back. When Max exited the Yin Yang country he flew straight into a mountain. When it happened, he could not hold it in anymore.
"Fuck you system! Fuck you as well mountain!" Max roared. He could not hit the system, but he could hit the mountain. And that's exactly what he did. Max magic powers increased by a huge amount. Max used earth magic to remove the top side of the mountain and started to hit it over the mountain and scream: "Fuck you mountain! Take this! And this! And this!"
It was like a kid or a senile man that was losing it completely. To hit a mountain with part of it was the most stupid thing he could do, but he had the time and energy to do it. When Max finished with his ranting the mountain got flattened. Max panted a little bit and felt better. He continued his trip. Each time he will crash he will obliterate the place. Max always found his "enemy" target and decimated it. He saw that even the pyroblast damage and explosion range increased by few times as a result. His magic abilities increased by a few times only by levelling up to the rank of a high mage without learning something new. It was not something that he could do before. His worst enemy was a river that he crashed into when he lost control over his skill again. Water should be gentle, but when you hit it in high speeds it is like to hit a wall of concrete. It is not fun. Max hit the surface of the water like a small stone that you throw parallel to the water. He bounced of the surface of the water a few times and he sank in the water after. When he stopped, he started to use water's worst enemy- fire. He started to blast his new worst rival, the river with his strongest skills. Max did not know but the result of his little fight with this fierce enemy will cause the river to flow in a different direction and make huge changes in the empire's near future. For now, Max was just venting his bad mood on everything. He had unlimited amount of bad mood to vent. 700 years of torn limbs because of alchemy and students that did crazy shit gave Max the stimulation to decimate everything around.
