Capítulo 23: Night Raid (2)
"That went easier than I expected," Anton said, cleaning the grey blood from his blade. "A good rest does help."
"Hey, how did you learn Mana discharge so quickly?" Davin inquired Anton.
Wrik was interested in this subject as well. He and Anton had the same amount of experience in Mahasaying before coming here. Even if Anton succeeded in a class, he shouldn't be this skilful in this short period.
Anton contemplated for a good time before asking a question. "Do you guys know what you get after class advancement?"
"Class skills or abilities?" Davin answered with a bit of suspicion. While Tanya clicked her tongue at that.
"No." Anton denied immediately, as if waiting for it. "Those things are too precious to waste on every user that succeeds in a class in Maha Tower. I don't know how big of a network this Omeganet is, but I'm clear that they would go bankrupt if they thought like you."
Davin frowned. "So, the answer?" he asked.
"You get nothing but information." Anton came back into the main topic, and destroyed the misconceptions that most of the fellows had about classes.
Wrik was a bit disappointed hearing that, but he didn't let it show in his face like others. Davin hardened his face from the slight setback and asked Ton, "Then, what about you? You didn't seem to be a Mahasayer who just got a little data."
Yes, it was quite easy to find the contradiction in what Ton said and what he was showing. The shadow element with the reinforcement ability wasn't something one could find through collecting sands or playing with mud. There's that ghostly footwork as well, though it wasn't perfect yet.
"Let me finish what I'm telling you guys; the one I'm talking of now was the normal classes. The data you get through a class varies from type to type. Like a mage would get something about the basic magic application, basic magic language, the way of a mage, enhancement and stuff.
"While a close-quarters warrior will get basic mana application, basic knowledge on the weapon the user specialises in, and some other useful or useless information. This is the same for the other cases as well. One will get something they specialise in."
"Long story short, you are telling us — you're special?" Tanya gave Anton a sceptical gaze.
"Maybe, maybe not." Anton shamelessly chuckled. "Who I'm to judge?"
"Let's jump back to the main topic of mana discharge," Wrik said. "Shall we?"
Davin nodded as well. They were deviating from the main topic more and more.
"Well, with the advancement of the class, I got a bit of info about my innate ability: how it worked and how to improve it, along with other information about Maha mana and shadow elements. After that, it was child's play for me to progress in mana discharge . . ."
So what Anton implied was that while using innate ability they used mana discharge unknowingly in a more complicated and peculiar way. And the data about his ability enabled him to understand better about mana application, it showed him the better path. Now it was understandable that he learnt Mana discharge in quick procession. But adapting so well with the newfound ability was another story. It was damn hard, at least for Wrik.
Wrik had questioned himself and pondered many times about how the [Eye of insights] worked but to no avail. [Eye of Insights] was more complicated than what he could make out of it. It's ranked ( B-) while Toni's [Shadow mastery] was only at (D+) not to mention the [Mysterious] mark on it. He didn't know what this implies, though. As far as he reckoned, it makes it harder and mysterious to understand. And he wouldn't be surprised if he still couldn't comprehend it after the class advancement.
"Do you know anything about how the ranks of Omega origin or abilities are determined?" Wrik asked a rather meaningful question that he was interested in for a couple of days. And others were looking interested as well.
As the Guide said, Omega Origin was the most important object in their path of Mahasayer, so it's natural that they were interested. The guide himself didn't explain much about it, he even admitted that he didn't understand it well. So, Wrik's guess was that it's the root knowledge of Omeganet.
"Actually, I don't know much about it. The info that I was given was more all abstract with a few vague indications. Like you all may think that the rank is determined by the firepower one possesses, but that was not genuinely the case." Anton said. "The Rank of anything in the Maha Tower is determined by how complicated its Omega code is or how complicated it may become in the future.
"And a complicated Omega code doesn't mean that it would always be useful. I don't know much about it but one thing is clear: as the rank of the Omega origin progresses the more perfect the thing becomes."
The guide said that as well. Wrik nodded. He had hypothesized this, though he didn't get how the rank of Omega codes was determined. He was right about one thing: the rank of [Eye of Insights] was so high, not because of its current usage but because of its future potential. It might become God's vision or might downgrade to some peculiar abilities, all depended on him.
"One last question. How do you determine if a class is special or not?" Tanya asked.
Everyone's attention stirred towards Anton again. It's the most crucial question for everyone in the current situation. A Class advancement would improve everything they were currently struggling with, from Mana application to the other combat skills.
"I'm not sure," Anton said slowly. He thought for a moment then continued, "If my guess is right, it might be the Title of the class. The more specific direction or cool it sounds—the more special it would be.
"As I was a stalker, ahem . . . What I am saying! As I succeed 'Shadow Stalker' the direction it symbolised was assassin type with the element – Shadow. I didn't get any skills, but it did give a useful OMEGA ability"
Tanya's emerald eyes glittered out with interest, hearing Ton's words. She blurted, "If an idiot like you could get a special class, I can get it as well. Let's finish up today's task quickly."
"Who said I'm an idiot?" Anton shouted, hearing Tanya call him an idiot.
This was not the first time a girl called him that, and it wouldn't be the last.
"Alright, let's go. We'll first break their numbers in half then ambush them when they are least prepared."
