[Transfer has begun, be ready for a bit of pain]

Oh, so it's only a little, huh?

[Yes, for you, for others though it is one hell of an experience and I mean that in a bad way]

They go through hell and back?

[Yes

[Since you have 'Pain Resistance' AND 'Hard Soul', the pain you will feel will be only 10% of what is should be]

Why such a big decrease in pain?

['Hard soul' is the main reason. The main source of the pain is the extreme strain which the soul experiences during the transfer, it's nothing fatal, but it is commonly used as a torture method in civilization that have a really good grasp on the soul and the like]

I don't pity the others

[Why]

Can you pity a person that you know barely anything about, the only thing I know about them is that they exist and that they are regressors, that's it.

There is to 1st ranked magic, Absolute control, though it’s price isn’t worth it and just the basic conditions are things that I’m unable to complete, though I don’t exactly know about them as it was classified information’ I brought out my note book, a pen and started taking notes, bending the corners of the pages that I don’t understand and noting down all the impo

    I know the perfect skills to pick, ‘Combustion’ and ‘Mana-kinesis’I had both of these skills, though I ignored ‘Mana-kinesis’ and it only got to D rank, because it requires a bunch of theoretical knowledge to make 100% use of ‘Mana-kinesis’.Though this time, since I’ll waste less time on useless things like exploring and searching for hidden encounters and the like, I can focus on learning about ‘Fusion’ more and making it more usefulBut ‘Combustion’, on the other hand is a skill I really, really, REALLY liked, in fact it was one of my most favorite skills and I was the first to take to S+ rank, though that was at the end of my life.‘Combustion’ is really versatile, since it’s description at G rank quite literaly is ‘When combustion is used on a particular area/item/material, it makes said thing combust’And for others it turns further on

    THIS IS IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I officially edited a chap before on this, but I will write it for those that either reach this chap before the other chap's edit: current MC stats are based on an avg. males before mana was introduced, same for skills, meaning the fireball skill is so high ranking becuase the max possible output is just that low.I've prepared plans to slowly point this out, but in webnovel I've faced a coment regarding this, so since I don't want you to think that this is a half-assed novel, I will say this for now. Thank you for reading this message and have a fun time reading. A/N ends<A time skip that is far too long than it should be>1 day left till the start of “The First Mana Wave”On that day a huge wave of mana will sweep the world and those that can’t hold out or have absolutely zero affinity for mana will mutate.I know this not only because I’m a regressor but also due to the fact

    First official lesson

    First, you make a box big enough to house the thing that you wish to cast plus a few centimeters to the sides, then you put in the thing that will hold the cast while it cools down and when you pour it.Then you do the same thing with the other half of the box or you fill half of the box.The next step is to carve the mold, weather it is by hand or just pressing a plastic, wax or a cast made of any other material into the sand, if the box is split in two, you can remove the cast, but if it’s one, then leave the cast, but make sure it is made of a material that burn really well and really quick.Then, if the box is separated in two, then you put it together and don’t forget to make a couple of wholes where you will pour in the metal.And then you take your molten metal and pour it.This time I used a wooden box and clay, plus a foam cast.My cast turned out unsuccessful, because the metal didn’t completely fill in a corner,
