My eyes were closed and I focused everything on one of the pieces of debris, a small piece of rock.

I used my spatial mana and engulfed it.

'The first type is the key to making the magic work…I need the medium.'

I thought as I inserted my spatial mana into the rock, in every part of it.

'The second type is easy to do, I can just control it by increasing mana concentration and all that but…I need a medium.

A mass to attract. Or rather act as a medium.

Instead of creating the much more complex first type of unique mana that acts as the mass…I can just use the rocks.

….

….

….

[The Supreme Dragon of Chaos watches in awe.]

[Supreme Dragon of Frost Lanesha watches in awe.]

There! I got it, I've established the connection and mimicked the properties of gravitational mana…

Now I just need to adjust the pressure.

I've created the mass and the connection, now I just need to adjust the pressure.

"Hmm…"

I increased the concentration and amount of Spatial mana, and with it, I can adjust the amount of force exerted.

Attraction, let's try that first.

I adjusted the amount of mana, and established an even firm connection ... .and finally.

I was able to do it.

The rocks created a field of attraction around them. I threw a piece of debris in there and It flew to the middle of the field and stayed firmly in its position.

"Now… let's try repulsion."

I said, and as I adjusted the mana the rock flew out of the area with great speed.

"Nice."

I commented. I was satisfied with the effects.

"Now…the only thing left to copy is 'that'."

I can use attraction to crush it, and repulsion to make it go away.

Nice.

[The tower praises your talent.]

Eh?

[The Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras praises you.]

[Supreme Dragon of Frost Lanesha praises you.]

..?

I was genuinely confused, what had happened? Why the praise? I haven't even cleared the trial yet!

[Congratulations! You have perfectly mimicked gravity! You have gained an affinity for Gravity[High], and your Spatial affinity has advanced from [High] to [Superior!]]

Oh…

That's a bonus!

'But is this really that surprising?'

I wondered… I've done this thing multiple times with other skills, so why only now?

[Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras Says that it is because you completely mimicked another element, not like the ones before, where you just substituted with ice.]

Eh?

The skills Sir Oliver showed me? Yeah, they were mostly skills of other elements like Fire and wind, and some other complex ones, I just replicated their function with Ice and frost mana.

Wait…Did it work because Gravity is a sub-type of Spatial mana?

[Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras nods.]

So that's what it was…makes sense.

I completely mimicked the element this time, unlike just replicating with Ice or normal mana. Most of the Skills Sir Oliver showed me, I could reconstruct…but because I didn't have the affinity for them, it lessened their power a lot so I just substituted them with Ice Mana to keep their power the same or even increase it because of their my high affinity for Ice, essentially creating a new skill I guess Was this really that impressive?

[The tower is impressed with your talents. It encourages you to climb further.]

What's up with this? This thing speak?

'That's a surprise.'

I thought to myself, I focused on the trial.

I looked at the platform in the sky, the gravity mana that surrounded it was still terrifying…But I think I can do something then!

[You are using gravitational Mana.]

This time, instead of the rocks, I am the medium. My mass is the center, surrounded by other rocks that act as mediums to strengthen the field surrounding me.

[Gravity Field(B) has been learned.]

This works. I've created a Field Of repulsion around me that would repel the gravity mana surrounding the highest platform.

I gathered my mana, still doubtful if this would work or not. Collecting my breath, I unfurled my wings and flew straight up, with maximum speed.

*WHOOSH*

Because of my speed, the other torrents of mana in the realm failed to catch up to me and couldn't slow me down.

"Here we go!"

I entered the field surrounding the highest platform and used all my might to climb higher. The gravity field around me repelled the extremely dense mana of the realm…But I guess it was just too much for my field. The dense mana here pushed against my field and it got smaller and smaller every second.

The field surrounding the platform was just too strong. I felt the weight again and helplessly fell to the lowest platform again when my field crashed.

"..."

I wiped the blood coming from my nose. The force exerted was great, it did a moderate amount of damage to my insides.

"...So I need a bigger field huh?"

I said, My field previously was too small.

Well, the solution was simple.

I have enough mana.

[Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras says you can't possibly be that crazy!]

I laughed when I heard Suleras…and said.

"Crazy?"

Did I question…crazy? Me?

That's an Understatement!

"I'm fucking insane!"

I laughed and conjured up multiple, thick chains of ice that I swung and Lodged into the other platforms.

[Gravity field is being activated!]

I spread the platforms as wide as I could without impacting the strength of the chains.

This time, rocks wouldn't be mediums! It will be entire platforms! And surround the bastard that's the highest!

I unleashed my mana and created a gravity field that surrounded half the realm!

The torrents of mana outside clashed with my gravity field, but the outer platforms repelled them.

I set a few Platforms as an outside wall first, these would repel the torrents of mana outside my field…Whilst the inner platforms surrounded the highest platform's gravity field and reduced it as much as it could!

The vibrations from the clash rang all throughout the domain, And I laughed like a maniac!

"Haha! As for you!"

I set my eyes on the highest platform, the one with the portal. I conjured two, extremely dense chains of ice and threw them towards it. I made these chains especially dense and durable so that the Field would not break them…The Chains had hooks on the ends and lodged themselves into the upper platform firmly.

I froze my feet on the Platform I was and grabbed the chains firmly and then got into position. I know I don't have enough 'strength in my wings' to fly up there, whilst being impeded by the field…

So…

"If I can't go up there…Why don't I just pull it down here?"

And so I began pulling with all my might.

[The Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras says you truly are insane! He likes it!]

*********

[Outside the tower.]

"What a shocking turn of events! Instead of going up slowly like normal students…Alan Peccator is pulling the field towards himself…What amazing strength he has!"

Harrison declared. The audience erupted into cheers as they saw Alan's trial.

'That idiot…'

Sabrina said in her mind. She sighed.

'Well…what else did I expect of him?'

It was Alan…She should have learned her lesson of keeping her expectations low.

Well, she couldn't be blamed…The previous feat Alan had caused an uproar.

"Was he always able to do this?"

Her grandfather asked, and James paid close attention.

"Yes…He's a retard when it comes to studying but I'm nothing to him when it's math or mana."

It was true, Although Mathematics was debatable…Sabrina could never compare to Alan when it came to Mana. He was just built differently in that regard.

Hugo and James remained silent and began to watch Alan's trials with renewed interest.

Alan's feat of creating a gravity field with his own mana had attracted a lot of attention, most people were watching his viewpoint…It was a unique method of clearing the trial after all. It was bound to gain attention.

******

[Ezra's room.]

Ezra, covered in bandages and still healing from his wounds, observed Alan's trial with great interest.

He was lying in his bed and had an artifact that displayed what was happening to him.

He was observing all the top 10 before…but now his attention was solely on Alan. Alan's creation of the gravity field garnered his interest…

When he saw it, he remembered the words of the Sword Saint.

'You know? I have a student just like you, instead his talent is based on mana! He can copy and even reconstruct the skills he has seen!'

Ezra had a wild thought.

'Could this 'student' be Alan?'

He dismissed it soon after, thinking his head was hurt from his duel with the Sword Saint.

'Of course not…'

Alan's weapon is a spear…Not a Sword! He can't possibly be the student of the 'Sword Saint!'

…right?

However, the doubt still lingered in his mind.
