[Energy Sensitivity: Attribute increased from rank 3 to rank 4]

[Energy Sensitivity: 124]

Mart looked at the notification and was satisfied, but his attention was focused on his demonic energy, on the imposing feeling that ascending to the sixth rank as a demonic sorcerer gave him.

Mart knew that the system expected him to ascend in rank as a demon, not as a sorcerer, warrior, or swordsman. But even so, he was satisfied with the current result; the rest could wait a little longer.

With his energy sensitivity attribute increasing in rank, his ability to perceive things in his environment increased.

"This time, I can't deny that the torture was worth it," Mart concluded as he headed to the bathroom to take a shower.

...

After leaving the bathroom, as it was nighttime, he only sent Isirid a message using the demonic communication crystal, because he didn't want to wake her up suddenly. However, she replied shortly after, and the two talked for a little over an hour. That conversation allowed him to understand that he had been in seclusion for almost two months and that his seclusion had ended on the first day of the week.

After finishing his conversation with Isirid, Mart stored the demonic communication crystal in his demonic ring.

Then he began practicing his demonic spells. He altered the formulas to reconstruct the demonic diagrams, hoping to find some possibility of creating a demonic spell that would satisfy him.

Since Lucifer's remnant had used his body as a vessel to activate the capital trait of pride, Mart was able to perceive everything the remnant did, which, despite being beyond his current reach in terms of power, was a very useful experience in terms of the knowledge he was able to gain.

Mart remembered how The Pride healed the demons' wounds, regenerated some limbs, and boosted the rise of power in others.

Then, he focused precisely on the regenerated arm of the executive Senjar. Each cell was stimulated to follow The Pride's will, whereby The Pride neatly guided the cells to regenerate in the desired direction, stimulating the growth of skin, flesh, bones, and each of the elements that made up Senjar's arm.

Now that he was reviewing it more calmly, with more time and with his attributes increased. Mart could understand that each of the actions performed by Lucifer's remnant required an abundant amount of demonic energy and precise control of the demonic energy in the environment.

Sigh!

"I'm still a long way from that rank," Mart concluded as he watched the sky turn red with the light of the rising sun.

This time Mart didn't want to take the rest of the week off; he preferred to put on his sports clothes and do his morning training routine.

Upon arriving at the outdoor fields, Mart could hear the sounds of shock waves produced by demonic powers colliding with each other, coming from one of the closed training fields.

"It seems that Moraf and Meleic have not neglected their training," Mart concluded, and then began his own personal training routine.

Arian was sitting on a bench under the shade of a tree.

He was eating two pieces of bread, some meat, and drinking water.

Since he was in Class B, he still had to attend the compulsory subjects that each different class had to take.

The others were elective subjects. He attended most of them with Miss Mina Capriarnis.

Mina was a talented magician, which is why she had been assigned to class S, and since she was beautiful, she was quite popular.

Arian, on the other hand, remained socially marginalized. However, he didn't care because he was focused on learning and taking advantage of every resource, which had allowed him to reach the high level of the first spiritual core.

After finishing lunch, Arian got up and headed to Professor Anter Melik's class.

Among the students, Professor Anter had a special appreciation for Arian's dedication because Arian didn't complain, he just trained and kept advancing through each stage of his training.

...

"Everyone get ready, class will begin with laps around the training field. The first five to complete three laps can move on to the exercise routines I have assigned; the rest will have to run two more laps, and the first five will continue with their exercise routines; the rest will continue running, and upon completing three more laps, again only the first five will continue with their routines; I think you can imagine the rest. Begin!" Professor Anter said in a firm tone.

Professor Anter Melik's physical training and mana management class was made up of more than 40 students, most of whom were aspiring warriors or swordsmen. As it was an elective subject, there were students from different first-year classes.

...

All the students began to run quickly using their mana and spells. The training ground was large, and they had no intention of giving up the opportunity to finish first.

Arian ran, circulating mana throughout his body, making it stronger by using both his physique and his mana. However, even so, he could not compare to those who had more resources and whose power ranks surpassed his.

Arian finished third during the third round and immediately went to do the exercise routines that the professor had assigned him.

...

When class was about to end, Mina, who had finished first during the second round using her magic, approached Arian since they also had to attend the next class together.

Mina headed for the women's locker room, and Arian was about to head for the men's locker room, but Professor Anter stopped him and handed him a book.

"It's a mana absorption technique. It's intermediate level, but it's better than the rudimentary technique you're still using. You may leave," said Anter, who then approached other students to give them corrections or advice.

Arian didn't have time to thank him, but he bowed in gratitude and then left.

...

Arian had used some low-level potions offered by the academy and some mid-level ones to gradually increase his rank, but he thought he would have to wait until his second year to acquire a better absorption technique, because Professor Anter had said that solid foundations were required to effectively use any mana absorption technique. The fact that the professor had given him the mid-level mana absorption technique meant that Arian had solid foundations, and that made Arian feel even more motivated.
