Chapter 144: Revisiting the Chat Group

The next day, the feeling in my body felt different. I usually have normal groggy mornings before, but now, it seems like I have changed not only emotionally but also physically. I know that I have trained non-stop on the training space but I also know that I haven't gained any muscles from all the training. The mana in my body is also flowing with ease which is quite different before.

Seeing these changes, I decided to ask Blue for a confirmation. "Is this the result of my training in the training space? Why is everything feeling so different than before?"

"Just get used to the feeling. Whenever you try to train in the Training Space for how many years duration, the feeling will be similar to what you are feeling right now. That is a normal thing due to how your body needed to immediately adapt on your experiences back then. But that is not a bad thing, it will persist for a while but that will fade for a few days."

"I see. Good to know."

"Huh... you seemed to be really have changed. Your answers are now more precise and polite. Did the training ground molded you to be a better character than to be a whiny one?"

"Have I changed that much? I think it's just your imagination. Anyways, is it safe to bring Anya to the G.A.T.E.S located in the school? I wanted her to be strong and to avoid her dragon skills to be stale. I also wanted to witness some of her powers to get some inspiration on how to properly utilize the dragon power that her father has given to me."

"Based on the danger level the G.A.T.E.S in your school is not much a threat to her. If you wanted to, then you can bring her along. I can guarantee that you two would be fine if you raid that place. Besides, you are much stronger now, what more can those monsters do to the two of you?"

...

There are no classes today since it is Sunday. There are no missions to attend to and Maple's request will not begin yet which means I have time to freely do what I wanted to do. Maple and Anya are still sleeping and currently, I am the one still awake at the moment. Since there are no work for me to do at the moment, I decided that this will be a good time to get some relaxation.

Returning to my bed, I pulled out my phone and browse on the internet for a little bit but got bored after a while. As my finger hover on the apps, my hands stopped on the chat group's icon. To be honest, its been a while since I opened the app. Due to the situation of demons and other magic stuff happening constantly, even chatting with the other magicians has been set aside just to prioritize saving everyone.

Opening the app, I was surprised by all the messages that bombarded me. All of them are from the councilors of magicians that have participated in the battle to reclaim the Phantasmal Reality. I have not opened the app for quite too long that I didn't expect them to be chatting me. Scrolling on the messages, all of them are sent to me 1 month ago!

"What are they chatting me last month? Hey, Blue! You didn't tell me about this. I thought you are the spirit of the phone and you are connected to this Chat group?"

"I am indeed. However, it is not my duty to open personal messages of other people. You will definitely be angry if I do so. You are free to open and check the messages right now. Those guys will surely undestand if you explain the things. Don't be rude to them since they are much stronger than you. Provoking them will only nail the death sentence on your forehead."

"Alright," I sighed and opened the messages one by one.

Thankfully, all of them are just words of appreciation and thanks for the sealing I made that time and they acknowledge me as a respectable magician. They also expressed their willingness to help if ever I need something in trouble.

Although that was all most of the contents of those messages sent to me, the moderator of the chat group that I chatted last time, Zacharias also sent me a message different from the messages sent by the others.

...

Zacharias: I am quite aware on how you managed to use a forbidden magic to seal the rift that separates the real world and the abyss. Although we don't condone the use of forbidden magic due to how dangerous it was to use, we decided to turn a blind eye on this matter since you also did the right thing. However, we wanted to inform you that we don't want you to use the dark magic once again. We already helped you cleanse a little bit of your curses after using the forbidden magic and thanks to Inari-sama, your familiar who helped remove most of it, you managed to survive. If you read this, remember that you should never use that skill again. Your body will deteriorate in a faster rate if you continue to do this.

The forbidden magic that Zacharias mentioned must be the magic spell I used to forcefully seal the rift that the demons used to call the one they call "Shadow". I can't forget that moment because it was the most painful experience I did that almost killed me. I don't plan to use that spell again to avoid myself from dying. Since Zacharias mentioned those forbidden magic, there must be other magic that has similar attributes that causes harm to the user.

Since it has been a month, I decided not to respond to the messages. After closing the messages, I head straight to the chat group. As usual, it is a rowdy chat. I have seen lots of new magicians than the usual line up of magicians though the usual guys are still in there. Since many of them are already my acquaintances, I decided to hop in along with the conversation.

...

Chat Killer: Is anyone still here?

Tsukoyomi: Hey, newbie. Welcome back, so you finally have time to chat here again?

Zan: You can't blame him, there were so many troubles involving before around him so there is no time for him to even chat.

Yukizome: This is the first time I have seen @Chat Killer before, is he a newbie?

Tsugimoto: @Yukizome, he is technically new but he is also not a real newbie due to how many things he have already performed. He is already considered as a senior magician.

("I didn't expect the senior magicians also call me a senior magician. Does all of the feats I have done can consider me as a senior magician?)

Truck-kun: If he is not well known, then how the hell you call him as senior magician? That is just unfair to us who are more gifted in using magic!

Chat Killer: Don't worry, I am not a senior magician.

Zan: No, man. You have been already become one of the seniors. Even Voltaire acknowledged that.

Yukizome: Even Voltaire-sensei?!

Oppai is life: If that guy is not female, I don't care.

Mr.Bruhzone: Seriously @Oppai is life?! Can you change your ways in being a lecherous being? If there is a hole, there is a way!

(Oppai is life has been muted for 1 week: Reason: Find someone who cares)

(Mr. Bruhzone has been muted for 1 week and 2 days: Reason: You are much lecherous than Oppai is life)

Catmod: Ah, yes. The mute hammer has finally release its fury after @Raigaki's inactive status due to his injuries and recovery status.

Chat Killer: @Catmod, is Raigaki and Yaya still fine already from their wounds?

Tsukoyomi: Don't worry about them. Although Yaya is now blind, she can still do her work properly. Raigaki still needs to calm quite a bit before he can be released again. His first seal is broken after all.

Catmod: You have seen those guys, they are resilient enough @Chat Killer to survive. And they are strong people, you don't have to worry much on them. However, the mission is still underway. Since Titan and you are the only one who are still capable of finishing the capturing of the enemy, we willissue a new mission to the two of you to catch the enemy. The previous mission will be immediately completed and we will sent the rewards to your house later.

Yukizome: A mission?

Chat Killer: Is this still related to the woman who escaped?

Catmod: Yes. If I am correct, that person is one of the commanders leading the magicians who can use magic but using them to cause chaos in real world. They are identified as the members of the Cult of Light.
