บท 422: Volume VI - Chapter 55: Pure Physical Strength

I knew instantly.

I already knew, actually.

But when I experienced it myself... I truly understood.

Why the Lautes are so feared.

Why their manipulation of mana is so terrifying.

Why Rian Laute has been labeled as untouchable.

As humans, mana in the atmosphere is not something we can use directly, but it is important for both replenishing our reserves and for our growth.

And it is always there.

Even if its purity, its density is different in each place... it's always there.

But... as soon as Rian Laute used his ascension skill, or whatever it is... I felt that this whole connection was severed.

My reserves suddenly stopped replenishing. I felt like I was in an infinite nothingness. It was like, even though I could breathe, the atmosphere was gone... The sudden loss of mana was such a sudden blow that all my senses were confused.
