But when I looked at the prices of the book, I could not help but feel distressed.

Fire Wisp (Control) cost: 1000 Sikka

Fire ball cost: 10000 Sikka

Fire Bomb Cost: 45000 Sikka

Flame Arrow: 100,000 Sikka

.

I have already sold all the monster corpses that I had hunted while I was in the Outer area of the dark forest and the money that I earned after exchanging them was used up to buy HP potions.

Now, I have only about 700,000 Sikka.

Looks like I need to make a trip back to the human settlements.

And now, I can only reluctantly buy these books.

So, first I bought the ‘Fire wisp [Control] skill’

‘ding’

‘Fire wisp [Fire Control] has been bought.’

***Author’s note: I don’t like how this fire wisp sounds, so let me rename it as ‘Flame wisp’***

Then in front of me, a book appeared and it was labeled as ‘Flame wisp [Fire Control]’.

I opened the book and started reading it,

‘

Flame wisp or the Fire control:

To begin with controlling fire and producing a flame wisp, one must be able to draw out his mana [MP] and should have minimum proficiency in controlling his mana [MP].

First step- Try gathering your mana in your hand.

Hmm... ok?

Just because, it is mentioned that I should try gathering mana in the hand doesn’t mean that it will be an easy task, right?

What should I do?

Should I go for the ‘Trial and error’ method?

Or should I follow how different novels had different methods to gather MP?

Or should I try the ‘try to focus and imagine something gathering in my hand’ thing shit?

Oh... wait maybe the system will help?

“System, help me gather 5 MP in my right hand.”

As soon as I gave the command, I closed my eyes and observed any change taking place in my body.

And just as I expected, something from my heart was extracted and it moved towards my right hand, there it encountered some obstruction, but soon it started gathering on my right hand palm.

In the palm of my right hand, a violet-colored gas was gathered but in the next second that violet gas started dissipating and got mixed into the air.

Putting this matter behind, I tried to remember the feeling and the process that has just taken place.

If I am not wrong then the violet gas that had dissipated into the air must be MP or mana that was extracted from the heart.

First, I started analyzing the feel that I got when the MP was extracted from the heart.

Then I tried to extract the MP from my heart, but after trying many times, I was still not able to do so.

Then I told the system to gather 4 MP in my right hand palm.

Once again, I put complete focus on how the MP is extracted from the heart and how it felt.

A violet gas once again gathered in my palm, but I did not focus on that.

After analyzing the feel a few more times, I was able to get a grip on the feel.

So, I decided to give it a try.

I concentrated for few moments and then I felt that I was able to extract a little bit of MP out from the heart and simultaneously the system notification rang.

‘ding’

‘Host has extracted 1 MP.’

Ignoring the notification, I tried moving the MP to my right hand. But as the MP moved along the path from heart to shoulder, I lost connection with it.

I took a deep breath and once again, tried extracting MP from my heart. This time, I was able to extract a huge amount of MP when compared to the previous one.

‘ding’

‘Host has extracted 3 MP.’

I slowly moved this MP towards my shoulder, then towards the elbow and finally, it reached below the skin of my palm.

But then, the MP was not able to pass through the layer of skin and could not gather in my palm.

I tried for few seconds, but I was still not able to make the MP pass through the layer of skin and the MP then gradually got dispersed in the body.

Now, everything is going perfect, I just need to make the MP pass through the layer of skin.

Ahh... shit. How can I forget this?

Skin is the body's outer covering, which protects against heat and light, injury, and infection. Skin regulates body temperature and stores water and fat. Through pores, the skin releases sweat, then how can I not use those pores to let the MP pass through?

So, once again, I extracted a good amount of MP from the heart and it gathered below the skin of my palm. Then I let the MP pass through the skin pores. And finally, I was able to see a violet gas gathering in my palm.

As an instinctive action, to prevent the MP from dissipating into the air, my fingers were shaped into claw form and the shapeless ‘Violet gas’ then was then transformed into the shape of a sphere.

Suddenly, the system notification rang,

‘ding’

‘Congratulations, the host has learned a new skill: Mana manipulation’

Mana manipulation:

The host is able to extract and gather MP freely and does not need to give commands to the system. This will increase the efficiency.

This is an active skill and does not need to be activated separately.

========================================
