Why Should I Stop Being a Villain

Allister Family Mansion,

Gulp!

Drinking from a glass of vine that contained a golden-colored liquid, the Allister Head walked to the window.

The moonlight was shining on the Golden Fountain, creating beautiful scenery, but the entire area around the fountain was empty.

Not a single soul except the Allister Head was permitted in this area at the time of night.

"Cough, Cough," The Allister Head started coughing as he grabbed his right chest, and the pain around his mana heart started rising.

His breathing got rough, but after a few seconds, he took a deep breath and calmed his body as the mana around him finally settled down.

"A few years more, and my body will finally be able to handle that blood," He spoke as a smile crept on his face.

Walking back to his desk, he looked at the documents that had details about various children and their ability assessment.

Click!

Clicking his finger, a ball of fire appeared, and the paper started burning as he sat down and tapped on the edge of his table, making a hologram pop up that had confidential data about the company that Leonard and Reece were starting.

"This will be the start; I can't wait till they finish that product," Allister said while smiling.

"Boss, are we really leaving that thing behind?" Dane asked.

"DANE!" Kai shouted,

"Ah, I don't mean to question your orders. It's just that thing," Dane started scratching his head.

Dane and Kai could feel that the Golden Blood was a very valuable treasure due to the amount of dense mana around that place.

Even if they both soaked their bodies in that pool of blood, it would have made them stronger, but despite finding it, they were leaving it behind.

"We are not touching that," Asher said as he poured emptied a strange vial into the pond.

"But that doesn't mean we can't benefit from it," Asher replied, making Dane and Kai raise their eyebrows.

Half an hour ago, when Asher found this cave and the pool of blood after deciding not to touch it, Asher turned to leave when Rifir emerged and spoke to him.

"There, mana," Rifir said as he appeared at the crack that was around the edge of the cave.

Asher moved closer, and he spread his mana sense that was being overwhelmed by the dense mana of the golden pool, but going closer to the small crack made him sense a special formation that was done due to the intense mana that had been around this place.

It caused the formation of a natural mana-heavy zone that was beneficial for mana meditation for anyone below S Rank, and all three of them could use it.

"There is a Heavy Mana zone behind that crack where all of us will train for five days," Asher said, making Dane and Kai look at the crack.

"I couldn't sense that at all!" Kai muttered, surprised, as he didn't sense anything with his senses.

It was a place that had gone unchecked by even those who knew about this cave, so it was obvious why they couldn't spot it.

"But if we break that crack, wouldn't it make it obvious someone was present here," Dane asked.

"We will enter it directly," Asher said as he appeared behind Dane and Kai and touched their backs.

He instantly used the teleportation spell to appear inside the space that was hidden behind the wall.

And instantly, all of them felt the pressure of mana that made their entire body feel heavy, including their mana heart.

But that pressure was the heaviest on Asher, who was a C Rank Hunter, and it was obvious by seeing Asher, who was barely standing up.

Asher's indifferent eyes looked ahead as he sat with legs crossed on the spot and started using his aura to repel the mana pressure.

"I would have loved to spend more than five days, but I guess this is also fine," Dane sat down as well.

Kai did the same as all three of them started their own individual training.

Dane and Kai maintained their distance from Asher so as not to bother his training while doing theirs.

At the World Academy,

"So, do you know why we can't use mana like monsters?" Serena asked the four kids before her.contemporary romance

"Yes, Jennifer," Serena said, looking at Jennifer, who was raising her hands.

"Because the wild mana that monsters use is not suitable for us," She answered.

"Hmm, that's right, but it's not the correct answer," Serena said with a smile.

"Not just the monster's mana, but even our own mana is not suitable for another hunter," Serena replied.

"Mana that enters your body becomes a unique energy that resonates with your mana heart," Serena said as a diagram of mana heart was displayed behind her.

It consisted of a description of various white rings and mana waves that covered the human heart.

"That resonation will cause the mana to repel from anything that it doesn't resonate with," Serena said.

"Although the exact reason is not discovered, some people compare it with the way the mana frequency of an artifact works, but we ourselves don't emit those mana frequencies, making that theory invalid," Serena explained.

"But there is an exception to that rule," Serena said.

"I am sure both of you have seen it yourself," Serena looked at Lucas and Livia.

"Augmenters, they are the only Hunters that can perfectly resonate their mana with others naturally," Serena explained.

"But they are extremely rare, even more than Advance Element Users," Serena explained.

"And currently, there is only one Augmenter in the World Academy, and she is Amelia Greville," Serena said, making Livia smile brightly.

"Big Sister is very strong!" Livia said out loud.

"Augmenters have the special ability to project their mana and augment others while using unique spells," Serena added.

"But they can only project mana that their body is naturally capable of," Serena said.

"And most of the time, Augmenters have less mana than the mage of their ranks,"

"Remember this: most of the basic theory of mana is about various roles of Hunters and how they are different from each other," Serena said.

"A good understanding of such things will help you in the future and build a strong foundation as well," Serena said as she took out four books, each with a red cover.

"This contains the topic that will be covered the next month,"

"Make sure you learn it well, as you will be tested Next Month; it's not an official exam, so take your time learning things, don't worry about your performance," Serena said.

The books floated by Serena's power and landed in front of them.

"Now open the third page; you can look at the description of the mana heart and mana resonation that will be our topic for today," Serena said.

Lucas and Livia started reading the chapter while Jacob did the same, except Jennifer, who just overlooked the text as she had already studied about it.

Serena didn't say anything to Jennifer as she also knew that Jennifer Grandus was ahead of others in the class, but that didn't make Serena rush others or slow down Jennifer.

Although Jennifer's existence in the class did make Serena talk about advanced topics that were a bit confusing, despite that, he made sure that those topics were related to the lesson they were studying.

The class went on, and it ended an hour later as Livia stretched her hands and looked at Lucas, who was standing to leave.

"I am going to meet Damian," Lucas told Livia.

"Okay, Say that I said hi," Livia said cheerfully.

Lucas went ahead and left the classroom while Livia also left the room.

As she was leaving, Livia thought of interacting with the Grandus twins, but she didn't do it because Lucas told her to be careful around them.

Livia didn't wanted to go against Lucas's wishes and do anything that would cause trouble for the Greville Family, so she decided to listen to Lucas.

Although she wanted to be on friendly terms with the Grandus twins, Jennifer's attitude against Lucas hadn't changed despite attending multiple classes together.

Jennifer looked at Lucas as a rival, and Jacob didn't leave Jennifer's side.

On the other hand, unlike Livia, Lucas wasn't interested in making friends with the Grandus twins.

"I should ask Big Sister about this," Livia thought while walking towards her Dorm Building in the hallway.

Because Amelia was busy with her training, Livia couldn't meet her as much, and Damian would occasionally meet them. Still, it was mostly Lucas going to train with Damian, who would spar with him.

Sometimes, Livia would do the same, but today, she was going to spend her day studying.

"Is the preparation ready?" Xander asked.

"Yes, we have arranged the Oath Tokens and Trial Tokens. We can open the Trials Ground in two weeks," The Staff member replied.

"One week from now, send notice to all those eligible to enter the Trials Ground and tell them to stop their training," Xander said as the Staff member nodded.

"Submit that report to the principal and inform the Professors about this," Xander said.

"You can go now," Xander said as the Staff member left the room.

The Trials Ground was about to begin soon, and many people awaiting their chance were busy practicing.

So it was important to inform them a week before so they could stop their training before missing their chances to enter the Trials Ground for an entire year.
