When Marius listened to all of the previous notifications, his eyes showed excitement, but that vanished when he heard the last announcement.
'Hmm, so I'm not able to learn this art, or is it that I can't learn any Mystic Arts?' Marius thought as he inspected the scroll with the [Eternity Light Arts].
After a short while, he glanced at the [Blazing Aura Arts] and tried to learn it, but another notification popped up, confirming his thoughts.

Marius sighed as he thought, 'So it seems that I really can't learn these arts, maybe its because I already have a system... or it could even be something else...'
Marius shook his head after thinking these thoughts, clearing his mind as he commanded inwardly, 'Inspect All Skills."

Marius looked at their details in surprise as he exclaimed, "Astounding, to think they would be a total of three Low-Grade Arts, with the other two being one Middle Grade and one High Grade. This old man is certainly of quite the status..."
While Marius realized that his inborn skill was likely stronger than these arts, it didn't mean that he would look down on them.
'Heh, it's time to test these out; if I fight, I can earn Mastery Points; hopefully, I can get another Daily Quest from this [System],' Marius concluded, as his eyes showed a rare look of eagerness.
He looked around the room and saw a bunch of weapons scattered on a counter; his eyes soon caught sight of a sharp-looking dual bladed battle-ax with its edges being even wider than Marius's body. It had a mix of silver and gold, laced around its 1.5-meter handle.
"Ah... I'll be training with you then friend," Marius ushered in a prase as if he felt it to be a useful weapon upon sight, very fitting to his body's immense strength.
He found it to be a bit heavy after lifting it, which made him feel a bit surprised. However, he still placed it over his shoulder and walked out of the room, once he arrived outside he saw that the Mountain Ax Senior was walking back from the woods with a large tree.
'Hmm? Does he do this every day? How much wood does he even need?' Marius thought as he looked to his left and noticed the pile of wood gathered there, he shook his head, thinking that it was a kind of past time activity.
The Mountain Ax Senior notice that Marius was holding an ax, he smirked while putting down the tree as he spoke, "Oh, so it seems that we are quite similar indeed, haha, I had a hunch you would choose the ax for a weapon, a fitting partner for men of strength like us."
Marius smiled as he spoke, "Yes, indeed, I've never used one before, but I feel that it might be able to open a new path."
The Mountain Ax Senior nodded before he spoke again, "Indeed, hmm... since your headed out, I should help you a bit; this mountain range is quite dangerous, you see."
Marius knew it was dangerous; that's why he didn't wander off into the woods and quietly spoke with him. He looked and saw that the Mountain Ax Senior had placed his hand on the ground, not long after, a strange earthen colored power flowed from his body into the ground.
Rumble! In an instant, the ground began to shake as if the world was undergoing an earthquake, the Mountain Ax Senior's eyes shone in the same strange lights as he spoke in a resonant voice, "Earth Gate!"
Marius looked on before him in shock, seeing a dazzling light rise from the earth as a solid door a bit larger than himself had grown out of nothingness. As he looked at it, he saw that behind this door was a similar region of mountains and plants, even clear waters from a flowing stream.
The Mountain Ax Senior smirked as he fixed his posture and spoke with a confident pose, "Hoho... young one, what do you think of my little skill? Amazing, is it not?"
Marius was a bit surprised, but nothing could beat being summoned from another world. He wasn't going to say anything, but as he saw that the old man was looking to be praised, he thought for a bit before he spoke, "It's pretty good..."
The Mountain Ax Senior frowned as if he didn't like his reaction, he snorted and turned his head away while continuing on his business, leaving behind his voice, "Hmph! Young one, you can take that door to the outskirts of this mountain range, and return from the location were you exit, another door will be there. However, I must warn you; this mountain is highly dangerous; you can consider it your luck to meet such a weak creature when you did. The monster's you will encounter are all at the level of that beast and stronger."
As the voice faded, the Mountain Ax Senior had already placed down his tree and entered his house.
Marius stared at that direction and made a slight bow before fixing his sights onto the gate, his grip on the handle of the battle-ax naturally grew firmer as his eyes blazed with battle intent, a feeling he hadn't felt in a long time.
'Let's test my limits...' Marius thought as he took a step forward, soon after entering the gate, which instantly transferred him the outskirts, beginning the start of his first day of training.
