Chapter 1770 Rootless Tantra

?'Reasonable rate, my ass!'

Eren cursed the Mesh in his mind as he looked at the Spectral Screen.

[ Origin Force Points: -13798 ]

[ Menaka's Runes: 0 ]

The substantial accumulation of Menaka's Runes he had amassed over several months had been reduced to nothing.

Moreover, his Origin Force Points displayed a deficit. It meant that any earnings he garnered in the upcoming months would be utilized to offset the expenses incurred in amalgamating different Tantras into a customized version tailored exclusively for him.

"You know what? Never mind," Eren shook his head and sighed.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch in any world. This actually saved me a considerable amount of time, probably four or five years by rough estimates.

The time I would have had to invest in developing my own Tantra could now be utilized for almost anything else," Eren tapped his fingers on the desk as he concluded.

'I shouldn't always complain about every minor inconvenience either. One earns so that they can spend on things that matter to them. Thank you, Goddess Menaka, for providing me with something tailored to my current needs,' Eren expressed his gratitude to the goddess in his thoughts.

The butcher smiled in relief before retrieving the information about the fusion Tantra created specifically for him.

Of course, Eren was only supposed to get one Tantra for himself issued by the Corps. In a trade-off forgoing standard-

issue benefits, he had invested in acquiring the offline copies of the Bodyforge Zenith Tantra and Mundraflux Serenity.

The Mesh offering its users to customize their Tantra for them wasn't exclusive to Eren. As such, Eren didn't have much trouble convincing his superiors that he needed the full versions of the two Tantra manuals so that he could derive his personalized Tantra from them.

Eren had to let go of the Ranking Resources for one year. His annual pay was also halved when he decided to choose two Tantras instead of one.

This sacrifice paved the way for the initiation of the Tantra amalgamation process. He felt that it was totally worth it. After all, he could get his own Hex Artifacts and didn't really need the Corps to pay for it.

He didn't need the potions or support-type artifacts either because he could just make them on his own with the right recipes, blueprints, and ingredients. Furthermore, with his customized Tantra, Eren would also be able to sharpen his expertise in other fields as well.

This Tantra truly suited him and his Individuality. Practicing it would not only allow him to strengthen his mortal vessel but also make progress in potion-making, artifact creation, and Array Formations. It would also support his multi-profession ability, enabling him to shuffle between various roles easily while upping their levels at the same time.

"Unbelievable. Six months!

It only took me around six months to get a customized Tantra for myself," Eren mumbled to himself as his life in Anfang flashed before his eyes.

"And if I exclude the struggle I had to go through before acquiring access to this library, the actual time of obtaining a customized Tantra is even shorter.

I had to spend close to a decade perfecting my Rootless Ranking Technique when I was in Anfang. I had to practically explore the nook and cranny of my homeworld to come up with the Rootless Ranking technique.

But I only needed six months to come up with something even better. I have to say– leaving Anfang was the best decision I could have made for my growth.

With bigger risks come bigger and better opportunities. And with better opportunities comes a better future.

Labh Salem is just in a different league from my homeworld when it comes to having a profound foundation," Eren smiled bitterly as he thought to himself.
