He walked out the room and exited the building with a stomach never so full of food in the past.
A sigh of satifaction leavs his lips as he praised god for his goodness.
'System'

!!System Error!!

Special condition needed to fix error!
__________
A semi transparrent screen just like the ones you see in manhua and anime popped up instantly, like a futuristic hologram with pixelated words and nonsense embedded within, making it barely readable, although he had gotten used to it throught the years.
"How is this fair? It didn't even tell me how the condition is met!" Felix cursed silently at the system. It didn't change even a single pixel since his awakening.
He lied to the two people back there so they wont ask anymore then he is confortable, because even he himself have no idea what is happening with it.
***
The street is empty of people, silent as he walked along.
Gentle wind blows as if trying to confort him.
Felix suddenly stopped at a house that looks like it got blown up in the middle of a war zone.
This is what is left of his home as he kneeled down and mourned the death of his parents who had died a year ago as the first bunch of people that had fall victim to the moster which has came out of the portal.
"Mum, Dad, I have met two friends today, at least I see them as friends. They are the first person who had treat me with respect ever since the portal invation.
"I hope you two are happy up there without the worries of a human."
Felix layed down the flowers he picked during one of the quest.
The flowers are Jasmine, but not just any Jasmine.
An evolved Jasmine, one that had absorbed mana like a sentient being and broken through into the 1st Mana Gathering Realm.
"I still connot absorb mana, it's like my body refuses to accept the mana in the air, if only you guys are here. You would've helped and understood me"
The wind which had been calm picked up all of a sudden, blowing the Jasmine out of Felix's reach.
"Hey!"
He sprinted towards the flying flower, the wind whipped at his face without mercy, as if taunting his inability to even go against it.
Felix reached out his hand, forming a string made out of mana and extend it like a lasso, catching the Jasmine in mid air, and yanked it towards himself.
The precision and control which is put into this is masterful, as if he had donethe move million times before.
Of course, as he only have 5 mana for him to use, efficency is key!
Through out the year, Felix mastered and perfected the art of controling mana he has, everything he could've thought of, skills, lasso, even a fly out of mana to entertain himself.
However, this time is different.
As he reabsorb back his mana, something strange happened.
The Jasmine has been absorbed by him accidentally in the proccess as well!
It is now physically gone, dissapeared after his effort in trying to retrieve it.
But Felix doesn't seem mad, instead, a face excitement replaced the face of panic.
Something snapped inside of him, no.
EVERYTHING snapped inside of him, concept and ideas flows in, thoughts in which he cursed himself of never actually trying.
No more, he had found a way.
A way which his parents had given him.
A way to glory.
A way to get stronger.
A way...
To cultivate.
