Hold on! This isn't normal! Floid was sure that the Fireball skill didn't have this much firepower before! Nt even when he was using it as a hero!

This is definitely from the other EX skill he got! [He who is loved by Mana]. Floid remembers this skill very well because it was a skill he also had when he was a hero. In fact, it was this skill that allowed him to win against the demon queen in the game. Basically, what it does is exactly what it says. Floid is adored by the mana in this world and so any skill he uses will be much stronger because he can use as much mana as he wants without ever running out. The world just keeps providing him with mana without pause.

Putting it into simple terms, Flood should have unlimited mana. Although Floid knew it wasn't that simple!

But this isn't how the skill worked when he was a hero. When Floid was a hero, he could only use this skill when a meter fills up and he would have to wait for a long time to use it after the meter fills again? Why is it so easy to use it in this world!?

Floid looked at his tab again and saw that his tabs had changed.

Name: Floid.

Lvl: 2

HP: 15/15

MP: 25

Job Class: Demon Lord Candidate

Artifacts: Nil

Skills: [Fireball - F]

Hax: [Duplicate] [He who is loved by Mana]

Hmm. So he leveled up from killing that lizard. That's good. The skill that he got was only an F rank. That is the lowest rank in Rivalle.

In Rivalle, Skills and people were categorized from F rank to SS rank. The SS rankers were usually seen as God-Level beings in this world and Floid always wondered what a skill on that level could do. Even when he was a hero, his highest skill was only an S rank. Even when he used his EX ability to increase his Mana intake he was still not able to make an SS skill. I wonder if I will be able to get one now that I have these two skills? It will be interesting to have power rivaling a god.

Floid then looked at his MP and he saw that it was way too high! Why is he gaining that much MP just for leveling up once! And should it not have been reduced since he used a skill?

Floid had a theory for why his MP didn't reduce and so he decided to test it. He put his hand out and fired another fireball at the wall! He then looked at his tab and saw that he was right!

[MP: 30/30]

His MP increased from his using a skill! Instead of it decreasing it was increasing instead! Is this because of that EX Skill as well!? MP is usually used to measure how much Mana a body can contain and also how much Mana is inside that body at a particular time.

If Floid was loved by Mana, then that means he is not using the mana inside his body at all but instead, he is using the mana in the atmosphere. Then that means that every time I cast a spell, I'm drawing more mana into my body and also increasing the amount of Mana I can hold at the same time! Good. This is something loid could use very well. It would prove useful if Floid was ever in a situation where there was no mana in the atmosphere. If he increases his body's mana content even more then he won't have to worry even then!

Floid spent a few more minutes gathering himself and trying to see if there was anything here he could take with him. He didn't see anything worth taking with him. He would have grabbed the mana crystals, but they were everywhere! So it would be pointless!

Floid began to trek out of the cave and once he passed the entrace he saw a message appear on his tab.

[You have passed the first trial. Trails remaining (4)]

Floid looked at the tag and then resigned himself to continue moving forward. He had to get through these trials to find out what exactly happened to him. Just four more right? Well, bring it on.

As Floid went, he saw a lot of other lizards around the caves, he managed to kill all of them and he continued leveling up constantly! He noticed that his level stopped increasing too fast after he killed more than a hundred lizards and so he now knew he hit a bottleneck. He would have to find some other creature around to kill for him to level up again. By the time Floid was getting into the second trial, his tab looked like this.

Name: Floid.

Lvl: 15

HP: 150/150

MP: 1500

Job Class: Demon Lord Candidate

Artifacts: Nil

Skills: [Fireball- F]

Hax: [Duplicate] [He who is loved by Mana]

None of the beasts he met so far had anything other than that fireball skill so he only used that skill to get rid of them. The fireball skill was only an F rank, but Floid knew that the amount of power he was using was too much to be considered only an F rank. With the high Mana intake, he was probably improving the skill to be equal to a C rank every time he uses it!

Floid got to a new cave after going up a flight of stairs and he saw a giant door there. He pushed it open and he found himself in a new cave that smelled of dead meat. There was blood splattered all over the room and he could see bones on the floor. It seems he walked into the den of a predator.

Hissssss~

Floid tensed once he heard this sound. It was a loud hiss that definitely came from a snake. But he couldn't tell where exactly the sound came from. It's either the snake was using a skill to hide its location or...

A giant head of a snake suddenly slithered out from a hole on the other side of the wall and Floid deadpanned.

Well, that was the other thing he already assumed. The snake is just a really big fucker.

The snake eyed Floid as it assessed his worth as food. Yesss. This one looks like he will be really tasty! I'll just eat him! The snake suddenly bared its fangs as it shot forward and attacked Floid! Floid put up his hand and activated the only skill he had.

[FIREBALL!!]

Booommmlll

A very large explosion echoed through the room and the snake recoiled in anger as it hissed again! It activated a skill of its own and Floid suddenly saw three large lances made of stone shooting straight at him! He dodged to one side and just managed to barely escape the projectiles! Floid finally realized what kind of monster this is. It's an earth snake. Another mob monster that he played against in Rivalle. The snake had two major abilities, one of them was the ability to shoot lances made of stone to pierce its prey and the second one is the one he knows he had to watch out for the most. It was called [Rapid Strike] and it allowed the snake to shoot forward quickly to trap its prey in its fangs! That skill has led to his death many times when he was still new to the game. The fucking snake just kept on biting him without giving him time to attack at all!

Well, no more! There's no way I'm going to fall for that bullshit again!

Floid watched the snake and he waited for the exact moment when he knew the snake would activate its skill. And just like in the game, the snake's eyes glowed green before it started to shoot forward quickly.

Floid put his hand out with a smirk as he quickly activated two skills. Immediately the snake's mouth appeared in front of his face a giant ball of fire was what greeted it!

Booommmmm!!!!!!!

The snake recoiled and hissed in pain as it burnt on the inside! It didn't expect Floid to attack it when it was using its Rapid strike! How did Floid even know about its skill!? But the snake didn't get any time to rest as three lathe lances fell from the sky and impaled it into the ground! The snake immediately stopped moving and its head fell as it died.

Floid breathed out a tired breath as he thanked his game knowledge. To think that this knowledge would save his life one day.

[You have leveled up three times.]

[You have passed the second trial. Number of trials remaining (3)]

Floid opened his tab and took another look at it.

Name: Floid.

Lvl: 18

HP: 250/250

MP: 3500

Job Class: Demon Lord Candidate

Artifacts: Nil

Skills: [Fireball - F] [Earth Lance - D] [Rapid Strike - D]

Hax: [Duplicate] [He who is loved by Mana]

Once Floid finished looking through his tabs, he saw that there was a cloak on the floor where the snake was killed. It was covered in a bit of blood so it wasn't a loot dropped from the snake.

This is one difference between that game and this world. Unlike the game, the monsters here don't drop loot when they are killed.

Floid took up the cloak and he saw that it was still relatively clean, it probably belonged to someone that came here before getting killed by the snake. He liked the look of the black clock so he just wore it. This cave is a little chilly after all.

Floid then continued forward towards the next cave.
