Yumeha was lying in her room while thinking about her master. She knew how good he was, so those words he had said to Aoi had probably been a way of making her feel more comfortable around him. The problem was that this would make her competition to be the first in his heart even more difficult. Before, Aoi had only made a few comments, but now it seemed that she would seriously enter this battle.
'Could they have had some kind of relationship in the future?'
Thinking about how Enrico seemed to have some kind of connection with Aoi while at the same time not seeming to know her very well, Yumeha remembered that when they had first met, he had not even looked at her.
'Although he also didn't talk much with sister Rina when they met.'
She really wanted to know what her master had experienced in that future. Even so, it did not matter that much, because she would do anything to make him happy. After all, he was making Yumeha very happy, something she had never felt before. Throughout her entire life, all she had known was being ignored by her own family and mistreated by others.
Turning onto her side in bed, she began to sleep, but a headache suddenly hit her. Holding her head, she tried to calm herself while moving around too much in bed, until she ended up falling onto the floor.
"What are these pieces of information?"
She was receiving information about something new, but why? Yumeha did not understand that pain or all those pieces of information. The information about the new magic was different, as was the magic itself. They had similar power, but their essences were completely opposite.
As she learned how that magic worked, several seals began appearing in her mind. It was as if she had studied for a long time to learn a new magic, but all that knowledge was being placed into her head at once.
"Hiff... Huff..."
After the headache stopped, she felt better. Her sleep, however, returned with force, causing her to fall asleep right there on the floor with a single thought in mind.
'Master... what are you doing?'
The same thing had happened to her master, but Enrico managed to stay awake. That entire amount of information had simply been insane for him. Now, he knew how water appeared, its origin, how magic was used to transform it into water, among various other pieces of information.
The two magic circles inside Enrico sometimes seemed red and other times blue, blinking as he tried to keep all that new magic balanced with the magic he already possessed, but it was difficult.
'I already knew some information about water, but I didn't want to have this magic. In fact, I wasn't even planning to have a second magic and would only focus on the compatible one, especially because my potential is bad and it would take even longer...'
"Huff..."
Even so, it had been a good reward. The only problem was that he could not use that magic in front of others. However, Enrico was already thinking of a plan to use a specific magic and improve his abilities in the eyes of others, making him seem even more absurd.
Standing up, he decided to check his statistics to find out how they were.
Name: Enrico Solcren Ferreira
Magic: Fire — Circle 2 — 5%
Magic: Water — Circle 2 — 5%
Mana Quantity: 225
Unique Skill: Elemental Clone
Soul: 68
His magic had increased considerably after evolving to the next circle, but the most important thing was the magic. And, indeed, it was at the same level as his compatible magic. Even so, this meant that his water magic would not follow the same development as his fire magic.
[You are now compatible with water magic, so you don't need to worry.]
'Seriously? But how could someone be compatible with a completely opposite magic?'
If that was true, then, even with the problems, that reward was much better than he had thought. Enrico was grateful for that, having only been unlucky enough to receive a magic that would cause him problems.
"Let's begin, then."
[What do you mean begin?]
Enrico looked at the system as if it were an idiot. It had been with him all that time and still did not know what he was thinking? As always, a disappointment. Enrico shook his head, clearly disappointed.
'I'm going to train, of course.'
[But you said you were going to rest.]
'Yes... but with water magic, I won't need to rest as much.'
While the system tried to convince Enrico to rest, he began his training. He might have obtained a new type of magic, but he still had not created any magic of his own with it. So, he needed to take advantage of that opportunity to create some, because the next day the competition between the classes would take place, an arc that should have been against Class B if things had not been moving so quickly.
It would also be the end of the battle with Elowyn. Of course, that would be a complete battle against Class S, but he would go after her and her subordinates to finish the arc quickly.
'With this, there will be two arcs at once.'
Now that he had managed to complete the exam arc, which had been easy, and the festival arc, he could make a new pact and receive another one.
Besides that, he would receive those same two when he finished the two arcs together the following day. One of these pacts would be used to improve something of his, such as the ring or his ability again, but, of course, that would depend on the amount of mana he spent. If it were too much, he would not do it.
'I already have little mana compared to the other Circle 2 users... Valença, Rina, and Aoi are already above three hundred.'
Rina and Aoi had already reached the Second Circle days ago, both with a large amount of mana.
Yumeha herself had twenty more mana than him, but all of it had been used to improve her Elemental Clone, and that had helped a lot. Because of that, Enrico did not regret it, since he had been saved several times in a short period of time thanks to his Unique Skill.
[Come on, you need to rest more.]
'I know. I'll rest my body. What I'm going to do is mainly think about water magic.'
[All right, but I'll keep an eye on you. There's no way I can trust an idiot who only thinks about training.]
Looking at it that way, he was quite similar to Kai, always thinking about becoming stronger. At the same time, however, he was different, perhaps because he understood much more than Kai. Maybe that was why Aoi was interested in him, even seeing that Enrico trained a lot.
It could also be because he hid part of the training he did from others, so she did not know how much he trained.
Raising his hand, Enrico began using his water magic, thinking about a spear that slowly began to form.
Since Ego Weapons could be created by the user's magic, he could now begin creating two.
'That's right. I'll start with the Ego Weapon first.'
