Danmachi – Infinite Mana System

Chapter Size: 1830 Words.]
Third Person POV
27 Floor, Dungeon.

...

...

After the disintegration of Amphisbaena, the dungeon fell silent, with only the sound of Lucius's panting breath echoing off the stone walls. Tiona and Riveria approached, their looks a mix of admiration and concern.

"Lucius, are you okay?" Tiona asked, watching him closely. "That fight was too intense, even by your standards."

Lucius smiled, still catching his breath. "I'm fine. But you're right, Tiona. It was quite a challenge."

Riveria, with her usually serene expression, added: "It was more than a challenge, Lucius. You achieved something that goes beyond what we've seen. Your skill with the Mana Zone... It's revolutionary."

"I guess so, I've never felt anything like this before..." Lucius commented, his voice still reflecting the fatigue of the battle. He looked at Riveria, searching for the right words to describe his experience. "It was like the world... opened up to me in a new way. During the fight, I felt a deeper connection with the Mana Zone, as if I could feel every particle of energy around me."

Riveria nodded, understanding. "That's extraordinary. There have been elves who used the mana around them, but you're describing something more... a symbiosis with the environment itself."

Lucius continued, his expression becoming more thoughtful. "Yes, it was almost as if I was conversing with the dungeon itself, understanding its nuances and rhythms. Every stone, every current of air, every drop of water... everything seemed to vibrate with magical energy, and I could use that to my advantage."

Tiona, listening intently, interrupted with a look of admiration. "That sounds incredible, Lucius! Does that mean you can use the magic of the dungeon?"

"In a way, yes," Lucius replied. "It seems that the Mana Zone normally allows the user to manipulate the energy around them, but what I experienced was beyond that. It was like I was weaving the very essence of the dungeon into my spell."

Riveria, always the more pragmatic, pondered the implications. "This ability could change the way we understand and interact with magic. Lucius, you might be on the brink of a significant discovery."

"Well, maybe in a few decades. But we're far from it yet." Lucius commented.

"Rest a bit, we'll make sure no monster approaches with the noise you created in the fight." Riveria sighed and spoke.

"Yes, I'll just need half an hour to get back to 100%," He said, his exhaustion being physical.

After some time of rest, Lucius felt rejuvenated and ready to continue. They began ascending the floors again.

"Tiona, Riveria," Lucius began, "I've decided to stay a bit longer here in the dungeon to adapt to my abilities." Lucius spoke as soon as they reached the safe zone.

Tiona frowned, concerned. "Are you sure, Lucius?"

Riveria nodded in agreement. "Lucius, your abilities are impressive, but even so, you like to get into unique situations and the dungeon is unpredictable."

Lucius smiled, appreciating their concern. "Don't worry, I won't overdo it too much, I think..." Lucius couldn't tell them he would go to the deep floors, could he?

There was a pause, and then Lucius took out the crystal they had obtained from the battle against Amphisbaena. "Riveria, I want you to take this to the surface. It might be valuable, and I would like my family to use it to help with expenses."

Riveria took the crystal, surprised by the generous gesture. "I will do that."

Lucius nodded, satisfied. "Thank you, that will help them a bit in our current situation."

Riveria looked at Lucius. "Well, just be careful, okay?"

"When do I not take care?" Lucius smiled confidently.

"..."

"..."

Riveria and even Tiona rolled their eyes at that moment.

"Alright, let's go, we have some family matters to take care of. We'll see you at the War Game, don't be late." Riveria said with a small smile to bid farewell to Lucius.

"I don't expect to be late either."

"Goodbye, Lucius! I want to see you surprising me in the War Game too!" Tiona also said goodbye with her usual excitement.

As soon as the girls moved away towards the seventeenth floor, Lucius went to the city of Rivira. He entered under the gaze of people who knew him quite well. After all, even though he wasn't spending much time in Orario, everyone knew that he had attacked Apollo and essentially started a War Game. He was also known here for breaking one of the ceiling crystals.

"Lucius Drakenar..." A guard greeted him with a tone that mixed respect and surprise.

Lucius just nodded, his mind occupied with thoughts about the nickname he had not yet received, as people still called him by his name. 'I hope to get the one I want after the War Game... Wizard King,' he thought, carefully selecting some supplies in a store.

While paying for the items, an adventurer approached him with a sarcastic smile. "Lucius Drakenar! You hit a god, you've got guts!" he exclaimed, laughing.

Unfazed, Lucius replied with a slight smile. "Courage or not, sometimes it's necessary to make some noise to be heard."

Continuing on his way, Lucius was approached by an adventurer with a group, who looked at him disdainfully. "You think you can beat two families with just you and the little rookie? What a joke."

Lucius looked at the man, his expression calm. "Sometimes, quality outweighs quantity. But don't worry, we'll soon see who gets the last laugh."

"Tsk, the guy gets a little famous and becomes quite arrogant," he said, leaving with his group.

"Hey, Lucius! I'm betting on the Hestia family after what I saw you doing with that crystal, don't disappoint me!" Someone shouted as he was leaving the city, and Lucius just nodded.

With all the supplies stored in his dimensional space, he started to return to the capital of waters. He met Marie this time and explained that the explosions caused in the year were because of him. He made a bed and prepared food for both. Once he had recovered after 10 hours of sleep, he felt it was time to level up.

•[Deep Monster Rex 1 Mission: Defeat Amphisbaena Alone on the Twenty-Seventh Floor! | {Progress: Completed - (100%)} | {Reward: 1,000,000 Points.}] (!Hidden Condition: You defeated Amphisbaena at level 02 [Hidden Reward: 01x Random Rank 4 Magic Card!])

Besides earning 1 million points, Lucius received a random Rank 4 magic card, his first magic at this rank.

"What are you doing, Lucius?" Marie asked beside him, with Lucius looking ahead as if he was seeing something she couldn't.

"I'm just looking at some things here, don't worry," he said without taking his eyes off the screen as he selected the card.

[Do you wish to use the Rank 4 random spell card?]

'Yes.'

[You Received, [Support Type Spell/Evolve Invocation/Rank 4: 5,000,000] (Evolves any invocation)]

'Well... this isn't a very useful spell right now...' Lucius lamented, but couldn't do anything about it.

"Marie," Lucius called.

"Yes?!" She exclaimed.

"I'm going to level up here, so I'll be standing still for a while," Lucius explained and Marie nodded.

{Do You Wish To Level-Up? [Yes]/[No]}

"YES"

[Notification: Congratulations, you are leveling up!]

[Bonus: !You Won a Random Rank 3 Spell!]

[You Received, [Gravitational Spell/Intermediate Black Hole/Rank 3: 1,000,000] (Creates a black hole pulling everything and everyone towards it)]

As Lucius selected the "YES" option to level up, a sensation of pure and vibrant energy began to flow through his body like the first time he experienced it. The energy from those gods began to give a bonus to all his stats, a luminous and pulsating sensation that seemed to originate from a realm beyond the physical, filling every cell of his being with renewed power.

The first sign of this transformation was a wave of heat that ran up his spine, followed by a feeling of increasing strength in his muscles. Lucius felt his muscles become denser and more robust, his physical strength increasing exponentially. The numbers of his strength status appeared in his mind, rising from SSS1506 to SSS1657, a 10% increase that he could palpably feel in his body.

His endurance also improved dramatically. Lucius noticed that his ability to resist fatigue and physical damage had increased significantly, almost as if an invisible armor had been placed over his skin. His endurance status rose from SSS1640 to SSS1804, making him feel almost unshakeable.

Lucius's dexterity, already impressive, became even more refined. His movements were now more agile and precise. His dexterity status rose from SSS1520 to SSS1672.

His agility, essential for dodging and moving quickly in combat, also received a notable boost. Lucius felt lighter and faster, his reflexes sharper, allowing him to move with an almost supernatural grace and speed. His agility status rose from SSS1700 to SSS1870.

Finally, the magic, the core of his power, was intensified. Lucius felt a deeper and more intuitive connection with the magical forces around him. His ability to conjure and manipulate magic had reached a new level. His magic status rose from EX2210 to EX2431.
