Floating above the ground while mediating I continue practicing, trying to copy all the spells I could form the hundreds of books there were floating in the air, pages flipping every second, thanks to the boost to my inteligence, the effect of speed reading had gotten to the point where I could read a whole page in just a second, switching focus between differnet books also didn't matter, any information I recived that was about magic got instatly stored, digested, and converted into actual knowledge thanks to my innate potential with magic.
The more mana I used, the more it seemed willing to be used, for it, the mere fact I was even using it was more than anything it could wish for, a usually emotionless and unalibe force of the universe, had suddendly got alive when near me, my mere existance already breaking the laws of this universe, and this wasn't the first time.
My sudden research was sparked by the talk I had with the woman named Psylock, and her description of Mojo, though she had never met him, she has seen dreams of him, from her body that was with him, that was the reason why she knew what he looked like, and why she knew how slieppery he was.
Mages, scientists, mutants, genetically modified humans, aliens, you name it, he was able to collect all these beings through his cunning. He was just like a eel, a very fat and green eel, his mind constatly working to produce a better piece of media for his planet, making his slaves fight againts each other, thousends upon thousends of people dead because he wanted to make people laugh, when she explained to me I was able to control myself only thanks to Gamer's Mind, my wish to teleport there and wipe the planet hadn't left my mind.
But regardless, what I need right now are containment spells, things I can use to not necessarily kill instantly, and things that cost less and are more widespread than my chaos or dimensional magic, spells used by normal sorceresses that I can convert to only use true mana.
And so I learned, and learned, and learned, by the time all the books I had taken were fully read the night of the day after had fall, my body was still full of energy though, a combination of meditation and use of Blood mana to cause my body to go under physical strain had made my body better than it was before, a proof that were the levels I had gained in my class.

My body was growing, not at the pace that my mind was, but I had already surpassed what could be considered a normal human; my vitality alone could make me live for centuarys, that is if we don't take into consideration how my body dosn't deteriorate, my cells constantly regenrating and never dying thanks to mana, I already am theoritaclly immortal, I can't die by illnesess or by time, if I wish I could hide myself in cave and train there for thousends of years and still look like a 20 year old, but this is not a Xianxia story, and I have important things to do.
In the end, I learnt several new spells, all under the true mage category, but no level up unfortunately, I just need a point to reach 500 in both wis and Int, but I don't feel like using my point because I know I am not that far away.
" Are you finished?" I heard a voice I know very well ask me.
Smiling, I deactivate the spell that kept me above the air and use one of my newest spells, telekinesis, to push the books back to where they belong through several small portals I opened and then closed.

Telekinesis Lv.1/10
One of the most basic uses of elementless mana, but still one with the most potential based on the user, from moving the atoms of an apple to shifting a planet's orbit, you set the limit on this spell.
Mana cost: Based on precision or weight, and the number of things you are lifting.
Limit: Your current weight limit is set on (lifting capability given by Str x Spell Lv.), and your maximum precision is given by (Finesses given by Dex x Spell Lv.), the maximum number of things you can lift at the same time is set by (Int / (10- Spell Level))

Looking to the person that had called me out, I see Rouge in all her beauty, my Int and Dex letting me appreciate all of her beauty, the shape of her face, the way her smile bends to create a moon, her eye black eyes looking like a piece of obsidian, and don't let me start on the control I had to place myself under to not just look under her clothes trough my mana perception.
" You are as beautiful as always," I told her with a smile.
" You are so corny." She said while covering her laugh with her hand.
" Well, *coff, ehmmmm, what did you ask?"
"*Sigh, I asked if you had finished doing... what were you doing?"
" Learning spells that I could use to incapacitate people without killing them while also training my body by destroying and then healing all of my muscles."
"... And you have been doing from the moment you left the mansion a month ago? Adrian, are you sure you are ok?" She places a hand on my chest while looking into my eyes.
" Nah, I was going easy today, you should have seen me when I didn't sleep for a week and remained in the library all day."
" Adrian."
I looked at her, and I mean at her, her worry was clearly visible, no skill of augmented stat needed to see it, she is worried about me, and I can't have that.
Hugging her, I start kissing her, both of our bodies melting because of the sensation, a portal opened behind us, and I walked through while lifting her just a little.
When she noticed, she broke the kiss and looked around.
" Where are we?"
" Paris, more specifically, we are on the upper part of Notre Dame."
The room we were in was previously destroyed, even before the incident with The Thing, but after my use of Nature magic, it had been reconstructed to a near-perfect state, and what room is it? Well, it's an observatory, from which you can see all of Paris.
" This is incredible, did you do this?"
" How do you know?"
" I can feel your energy seeping from the walls?"
I am not going to question that, and instead, enjoy the moment.
Because soon I am going to war against a planet.

Thanks for the support from everyone. The list is getting quite long, so sorry if I can't keep up with it.
AN: A slice in the love life of Rogue and Adrian, if it sounds cringy, I am sorry, I am not an expert, and I don't want people to think I see myself as one.
