My Space-Time System

Chapter 545 League of Assassins strike.

"According to what was taught in magic school, everything is made of mana but just in different forms. This was also confirmed In Azkelwart's base as the elements were being reversed to mana." Blake said to himself.

Although the functions of the Nova crystals at Azkelwart's base were more than 100 times more difficult than converting mana to other elements, it still didn't mean it wasn't difficult at all.

"What if I am also meant to understand the concept behind the other element?" Blake's eyes lit up, but they quickly returned to normal. "I only understood these 3 because I have been using them for years. So it is impossible to understand them without even being able to cast a basic spell."

He had the idea of using different arrays to generate the elements, but that wouldn't be of help since he couldn't feel or control them.

"In the human body, our star paths are responsible for automatically converting our mana into our awakened elements before amplifying it and channeling it out of the body in different forms. This means I have to switch to a manual approach of casting spells." Blake silently pondered.

For him to switch to a manual approach of casting spells, Blake needed to understand how the automatic version worked. This brought him to another lesson from the magic school.

All forms of mana came from the Mother stream, and things like the arrays and stars had the ability to directly draw different forms of energy from it. Arrays could do this because they were basically symbols used to communicate with the Mother stream, but he had no idea of how the stars could do that.

"I have found a key step to solving this problem but as expected, the execution is the issue." Blake shook his head because he was already getting a headache from thinking. contemporary romance

Having no other option, Blake decided to settle for the simplest idea he had in mind. He planned on using mana to mimic the functions of the other elements in hopes of gaining insight into what he was meant to do.

Mana was blue in color so if the intensity was increased it would produce a lot of light.

For fire, he could generate heat through friction by using mana against any object but Blake felt that won't suffice. He needed to create actual flames and to do so he needed oxygen, a type of fuel, and a spark.

Luckily for him, all of this was already present in the air, but the problem was that it was on a molecular level. So his mana control had to have needle-like precision.

Just like that Blake began finding round methods to create the elements using mana, but he couldn't figure out other methods for most of the other elements for the time being.

...

One month later, it was time for the second hearing of his court case.

The joint force of the 4 ancestral families had successfully uncovered all the illicit dealings carried out by Lieutenant Colonel Gunnar and his family throughout his career in the Ash Corps.

This also included the capturing of all his accomplices, including the artifact store Blake had investigated. It turned out that they smuggled and sold dangerous unregistered artifacts.

All artifacts brought into the city for sale had to be registered under the Ash Corps to make them traceable in case it was used to carry out a crime. That was why gangs, assassins, and so on made use of these channels to make sure crimes couldn't be traced back to them.

The opposing party argued that the investigation and crackdown on all of Gunnar's assailants required much more time and effort, especially since they also had to investigate everyone involved in the artifact smuggling.

They also mentioned to the judge that Gunnar was the one behind Blake's attempted assassination, and used it to ask for more time since it was related to Blake's appearance on the crime scene.

With so many results, and well-presented arguments brought forward, the judge had to adjourn the case once again for the last time.

This was meant to be good news to Blake, but the final hearing was in 5 months!

"Just like that 7 and a half months of my life would go to waste." Blake was frustrated but felt helpless.

"It's not as if I am aiming to take their positions, I just want to see my mum. So why can't these fools let me be?!" Blake's hatred for nobles was skyrocketing the more he thought about it. "What all commoners want is just to have 3 square meals and live a happy life with their families, but these morons hoard resources and actively make their lives horrible just for thrills and their oversized egos."

[What do you plan on doing now?] The system asked after letting Blake vent his frustration.

'There is nothing I can do for now, but once I get out of here I will quit the Ash Corp and sooner or later find a way to make these bastards pay.' Blake answered with a resolve of steel.

Seeing that Blake had made up his mind, the system didn't bother saying anything else.

...

In the middle of a dark room, the Masked man who was dressed in all black stood in the midst of multiple holograms.

If Prince Bryon were here it wouldn't take time for him to realize that these were all the members of the League of Assassins, and just like most of the members present, he would be shocked because this was the first time in decades that all members were meeting.

The Adventurer Association and the League of Assassins had a lot in common, especially in terms of the freedom their members had. Contrary to what many people thought, the League wasn't meant to be as free as the Association. What made it look so was that the Masked man was carefree and almost never disturbed or snooped into their activities.

That was why everyone was surprised that he called for a meeting out of nowhere.
