Why Should I Stop Being a Villain

Chapter 324 Learned



324 Learned

Washing the wound, Alyssa poured a healing potion that she had over her hand and it started healing soon.

Due to the fact it was only a physical wound, it was easily healed by that potion.

The only wounds that required higher ranking potions were the wounds inflicted by mana.

But instead of resting, Alyssa went into her training room, which was a bit different from the one Asher had.

The difference between Rank 1 and Rank 3 was somewhat big, as the mana density around the room was much thinner, but it was still the better than what other Rankers had.

Only Kevin’s training room and meditation room was better than Alyssa due to the fact he was Rank 2.

Alyssa removed her mask, as she put it aside, and the scars on her face disappeared.

Standing in the middle of the room, Alyssa recalled her time inside the Sanctuary of Mages.

Because she knew that taking out Elizabeth’s work would cause problems for her, she decided to leave it there.

But this didn’t meant she was going to leave behind what her mother left in the world.

And that was her knowledge of Ice magic.

All records of achievements of Garcia family were erased, as the punishment was given by the High Council.

But Alyssa still remembered a few things when she was 5 years old.

Although, it didn’t do well for when she tried to remember that time, as the headache would only grew and controlling her emotions would become even harder.

But she still tried to remember one day, when someone in the Garcia Household, told Alyssa how impressive Elizabeth was as an Ice Mage.

Ice magic was one of the powerful advance element that a mage could possess due to offensive and defensive capabilities that the element had.

But those with high affinity didn’t stop at Ice Magic alone, they developed it further making it even more powerful.

And Alyssa wanted to do this as well, and turn her magic into the higher tier one which was the Frost Magic.

Many complex Ice Element spells were regarded as Frost magic, due to their capabilities and sooner or later Alyssa would have to learn about it either way to improve her spells.

Currently, she was using Ice with Gravity magic, to create an extremely aggressive way of fighting but she couldn’t do it in the End Year tournament.

Alyssa understood, the amount of eyes that will be on her that day, it wouldn’t do her any good if she outperformed everyone.

‘Why not just kill them?’

‘End it, End your pain!!’

‘Are you not going to avenge your mother?’

‘Give up, you are useless!’

Voices in her head kept screaming, but Alyssa didn’t look like she was affected by them at all.

Her lifeless eyes, looked at her hand.

Despite being in this situation, in which her emotions were a wreck, Alyssa remembered the plans she had made for year.

Alyssa knew about her body the best, and she knew the chances of her finding a cure were extremely given that she would never receive any kind of support.

She had long given up on the possibility that Alexander, her father would even bat an eye even if she died.

Her being alive was just a burden to the Astaria Household, and the only reason Alexander didn’t do anything to her was to direct all the hatred towards Garcia family towards Alyssa.

There was another reason as well, and it was Alyssa’s affinity with Gravity Magic.

She knew that she was just a sacrificial piece for people like Alexander who can throw her away any time they wanted.

In the situation, where even her life was not guaranteed thinking about revenge was absurd.

“I just need inflict them the same pain, I have suffered,” Alyssa muttered as she remembered the vow she made long ago.

This was what exactly she wanted years ago.

Killing the people that destroyed her entire life, was almost impossible and she knew that she would never live long enough to stand against them.

She had her hopes about curing herself at that time, and that hope was World Academy, where she could research ways to cure her body.

But the situation changed now, due to Asher’s interference. Alyssa now could use her body without having to go through that pain where even gathering mana felt like hell.

This also meant, that she no longer needed to place limits on her revenge like before.

Hence the reason, why Alyssa didn’t wanted to stood out too much in the End Year Tournament.

On the Tenth Floor of the Rankers Dorm,

Asher had just arrived in his room after texting Tom about a few things that he needed information about.

He sat on a seat, as he looked at the record of people that entered Mage Association with the affinity of Space Element.

It was highly unlikely that he would find anything, but he wanted to try at least.

It took him 20 minutes to go through the lists that Tom found after messing around with the database of Mage Association that was available in the files they stole from World Association’s Database that Osbert had.

“So no records,” Asher said as he looked at the whole list that contained thousands of people that had Space Element affinity and they entered the Mage Association in the last 80 years.

Matching the death of all these people, there was not even a single person that had survived for longer than 30 years.

And this list was not something that anyone could get access to.

This belonged to the personal database of the Chairman of World Association.

Due to the fact that the three Association worked together, it was obvious that World Association kept track of mages that went to the Mage Association.

“Should I look more into it?” Tom said through the hologram that was coming out from Asher’s phone.

“No need,” Asher told Tom, as his eyes drifted towards the books he had chose to take with him.

Asher knew if Silvus had gone all the way to hide those worthless books, this also meant that any record regarding the person that wrote them would have been destroyed.

“Leave this aside, did they found the location?” Asher asked.

“Both of them are still following the direction, so I expect they will find the location soon,” Tom replied.

“But due to the fact that they are concealing themselves, is making the progress much slower,” Tom said.

“Keep it that way, and make sure they leave right after finding the location,” Asher said with his indifferent eyes.

“Okay Boss,” Tom said as the call was cut.

Asher didn’t wanted to alert whoever was in the place that was ordering the mana crystal so it was crucial for Kai and Dane to hide their presence properly.

Standing up, Asher walked over to the living room, as he opened these books to read them.

These five books were the ones that Asher didn’t had time to look at, so he picked them up as the contents of others were stored in his mind.

He didn’t needed to take them outside, as he already remembered the huge amount of words and spells and theories that was presented in those books.

Despite having flaws, Asher could fix them, and create a improved version of those spells, or even create an entirely new spell depending on the Mastery he had over magic.

But despite reading these books, his mastery had stopped growing from the moment he had read the book that was hidden behind the door that only Silvus could access.

The days went by like this, and all three of them spent their days focusing on the things they have learned in Sanctuary of Mages.

But Asher stopped reading the books on the second day, as those books didn’t have much to offer now.

If someone would have seen his actions, they would have been shocked as the books despite being thin had the research that were worthy of being placed inside the Sanctuary of Mages.

And it meant that the difficulty of understanding them were very high.

And this was exactly the problem that Amelia and Alyssa were facing. Due to the fact that the people who wrote these were of higher rank, their way of describing things were very different.

Half of the concepts were something that a Hunter below B Rank wouldn’t even be able to imagine due to the fact that they have never experienced those things that were mentioned in these books.

But Asher was different, and he could understand and comprehend these works much easily than any other person due to his talent and his experience.

And currently, Asher was sitting inside the Training Room, practicing his sword art which was increasing very slowly.

Rifir had also came out and he was absorbing another mana gem that Asher had bought for him.

Asher noticed it but due to the fact that Rifir had gotten much stronger, the amount that was needed to feed him also increased.

But Asher had no difficulty feeding this strange beast that would endlessly devour anything that was presented in front of it.

After absorbing the entire mana gem, there was no notification of Rifir levelling up and Asher had expected this to happen.

He needed even more B Rank Mana Gem, to even increase Rifir’s strength and soon there will be a limit to what he could feed Rifir.

And so he needed to maintain Rifir’s growth as well.

Despite being the Heir of the Greville Family, Asher himself couldn’t buy multiple S Rank Mana Gems just so he could feed them to Rifir.

Trades of such items were strictly regulated and if he did purchase multiple S Rank Mana Gems, despite the fact that they were extremely expensive and rare, there was a high chance that Arthur or Sylvie would notice it.π—ˆπ‘½π“΅π”’xt.𝑐𝑢π”ͺ

Till now, they hadn’t stepped in because they trusted that Asher knew what he was doing.

This was the reason why he created Aztech in the first place, and it was to secure his owns funds which he could use to trade such items discreetly.
