Ranking System-Chapter 145 Specialized Ranker’s Agency (Part II)

[Mira POV]

Meeting with our boss was nerve-racking. With Guy Joyce offering to send us off to the academy, our lives will be set for life.

Looking at Clyde, his expression alone made him look like a clueless man. If Guy Joyce were the type to take advantage of someone, then Clyde would be your obvious pick.

I then looked at Katie, who guided us to this agency's building. I know what she was doing, she was trying her best to seduce Clyde, but he was as dense as a blackhole.

If only she could have done this when we were broke. Then my conscious would have allowed me to support her to the fullest.

"This here is the training room. Before we send you in the academy from a week from now, we should improve your ability to fight."

Looking at this place, how much did this whole place cost? I doubt even a billion dollars would be enough to afford a place like this. Clyde had a stupefied expression looking at this place.

"I feel bad using a place like this."

"Don't be. This place is meant to be used. And it would be a waste not to use your talent."

Katie, I could see why she was chosen as our recruiter. As for the training facility, many training could be done here.

"Why don't I give you an explanation for every training tools of this place?"

We were going to use this place starting today. It was nice to know what this place could do.

"Please instruct us well."

"Very well. Clyde, this is a gravity chamber. Here the weight of gravity will increase, and you will feel heavier than you usually feel."

Entering the chamber, we saw a small room. The place was pretty plain, and the only thing in there were weights for additional help.

"Mira, here's the mana training room. With the concentration of mana, you could cast more magic with less mana."

After leaving the gravity chamber, we went to a different room filled with mana. I felt that mana here was much denser and more refreshing than the average air we usually feel. Not only that, but the mana here let me absorb them without trying to.

When Clyde and I had awakened our skill, Clyde had more physical talent while I had the magic proportion. And in addition, I gained the skill to convert mana to any magic-related attack. 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m

"Am I allowed to absorb the mana?"

It would be bad if I weren't allowed to. If someone saw that I did, I might get us in trouble.

"Don't worry about it. We have a mana generator that allows the mana to restore."

[Third Person POV]

Inside, deep underground at the Specialized Ranker's Agency, a group of scientists performed some experiments. The agency has been around for hundred and fifty years, and its prestige was at its peak.

Guy Joyce, the current leader of this group, was with these scientists to look at the results of their experiments.

"How's Rekindle been doing?"

"Boss! The facility there has been destroyed. Charles had somehow found that place, and we could not do anything about it."

Guy nodded in understanding, knowing it would compromise his position as the head if the news were to be leaked about this. It was the right choice to abandon the place with the best possible solution of not being led here.

"The project was already a failure. Just abandon the plan."

What this group of scientists was doing was searching for the best possible way for human growth. As a first-rank world, resources were hard to come by.

Now that the hub public is in the eyes of others, that problem has been solved. People from their organization could easily find a way to obtain items that were almost impossible to get.

More testing methods would be required with these resources, and the growing progress would be more effective. This is what the organization wanted to accomplish.

"Proceed to the next plan. We have already wasted enough time with the last experiment."

His soft and calm demeanor was no longer shown in the eyes of the public. As the boss, he needed to know how to act in front of his people. If he displayed any negative traits, he would look bad.

As for the next project, that is something we have to find out next time.

[Mira POV]

I would have never expected an hour of a tour from a training room. Before we start training, we need to test our current abilities.

In the physical test, my results were lacking compared to Clyde's. Even when I knew that his results would be better, it was still frustrating to know that his power was much higher by a long shot.

"You shouldn't let that get to you. You specialize in magic. Let's test out your magic capabilities now."

Katie led us back to the mana room, where test dummies were used as a magic targets. Both Clyde and Katie waited for me to cast a spell.

Lightning was the most effective damage spell, so the best move I sent was a bolt of lightning to the dummies head.

"Are you really eighteen? Magic users are rare in our previous world. Less than a million people could use magic effectively in a battle."

Both Clyde's and my eyes widened at that fact. There wasn't much information about magic, so it was natural to have fewer people involved.

"That's not fair... I want to use magic!"

Clyde had no talent for magic. All of his talents were physical things, while mine were magical things. The bitterness from the physical test disappeared once I saw my results for the magical test.

"Ok. Let's begin your training."

"Mira. You stay here and start getting used to your mana. At the same time, I will help Clyde with his training. I would like to help you, but magic isn't my strong suit." f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

And with that, we start our one-week training session.
