My Space-Time System-Chapter 99: Binding process.

At this moment Blake was sweating buckets as he followed the system's instructions. The strain that on his mind was more than twice what he had felt when he tried space freeze.

He gritted his teeth as an agonizing pain assaulted his mind, his breathing had become ragged and his clothes were soaked in sweat.

It went some more minutes before Blake fell to the ground causing the dimensional door to close shut with a loud bang!

"I wonder what realm professor Mack is at for him to be able to use blink to show off," Blake said as he was panting while still on the floor. Just a single blink spell had drained more than half of his mana and have left him mentally exhausted.

[If I was at a higher level I should have been able to detect his level, but one thing for sure he is not below the Demi-God realm.] The system replied.

"Demi-God!" Blake was surprised he had thought that researchers would be the same as those on earth who didn't have much wealth or power because they were engrossed in their works.

[Don't get me wrong, not all researchers have an amazing cultivation level. They are very few, but one thing for sure the geniuses are relatively high.

The reason why I mentioned Azkelwart was both a genius researcher and a genius cultivator was that he had attained godhood.] The system said.

"If that is so, then researchers are OP…"

After seeing the applications of the blink spell, Blake realized how powerful the spell was. Researchers were unpredictable, meaning they wouldn't rely only on their elements, because they would have a lot of surprises in their arsenal.

If he was to master the blink he would be unbeatable when facing those in the same realm and if he was to master point blink, he would be able to stand or escape when he was against someone a level above him. f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

After absorbing nature's energy for more than an hour to replenish his mana, Blake was back at full strength he continued practicing blink.

Although he failed multiple times he didn't stop. According to the system, if his mind was continuously subjected to strain the body will naturally adapt to being able to carry that particular amount of strain.

[Remember it's your day off so this should be your last try before you rest.] The system reminded him of his 4th trial.

…

In array mastery class, professor Mack was explaining the key to enchanting an item with 2 arrays.

"If you plan on inscribing two arrays on an item, you have to have 2 things in mind. One is it an array that affects the entire item or is it one that affects a certain part of the item.

Second, you have to make sure that it isn't arrays of opposite natures. For example, a mana dispersing array and a mana gathering array. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖

If all these conditions are met you wouldn't have any problems with engraving 2 arrays." Professor Mack explained while pacing around the class.

"Yes?" He gestured for a girl from the normal class to ask her questions.

(AN: Remember, compulsory classes, are only attended by those from the elite class, and specialization classes are for both the normal and elite class.)

"I followed all the instructions you have mentioned but before I could finish inscribing the second array it was already a failure. What I am doing wrong?" The girl asked.

"I will never know if I don't see you in action." He said with a smile as he gestured for her to come forward and inscribe 2 arrays.

The time he had demonstrated how to inscribe an array to the class he didn't need the sword to be red hot, because although it may have more resistance and may cost more mana it was nothing to someone his level.

When the brown-haired girl came up, drew an array on thin air without making any hand movements before he brought out a normal sword from his dimensional array and placed it at the center of the floating array.

The floating began heating up at a rate visible to the eyes. Less than a minute the floating sword was already red-hot, entrancing the entire class.

"Before you all start raining your questions on me, I will explain.

Arrays can come in 2 forms; the inscribable arrays which you all know and practice, then have the floating arrays. To draw these kinds of arrays you have to know how to interact with space with both your will and mana and trust me that is very difficult if not impossible for your level." The professor's words shut up everyone that wanted to ask about the floating array.

'Why is he saying that interaction with space impossible when that is what I do whenever I cast space freeze?' Blake couldn't help but ask the system.

[He is right, space interaction is impossible for those at your level. The only reason you can interact with space is because of the space inheritance.

Only those at the hero realm and above would be able to manipulate and interact with space, but theirs would be mediocre when compared to someone who had awakened the space element.] The system replied.

"Professor Mack if you say we can't interact with space then how do you now explain what we do when casting levitation spell?" The beast boy, Haldor asked.

"Haha… That is a common mistake made by most people. You don't interact with space, you only control the mana in a particular to take a shape around an object before lifting it." After making sure that he understood it, he told the girl to proceed on inscribing both arrays on the red-hot sword.

Nothing changed about the result, it was another failure.

"From what I have seen you don't have enough mana control that is why when you are done with the mana gathering array, you lose concentration while drawing the symbols of the weight lightening array." Professor Mack explained.

"By the way, minus 100 points for wasting my time on such an easy task." He sent the girl back to her seat before taking Blake's question.

"Professor Mack, I have been trying many ways to inscribe 3 arrays onto a sword but every approach I tried turned out to be nothing but a failure," Blake said with a bleeding heart because he had spent a lot of exchange points on forging materials.

His question shocked a lot of people in the class, most of them were still struggling to inscribe two arrays, while some were just getting the hang of 1, but he was already at the third one!

"I am impressed that you are ahead of the class, but that isn't part of the curriculum for this semester. So, I am sorry I can't be of help." Professor Mack's words made Blake receive many envious glares. His words sounded normal to Blake but to others, it was something else.

Impressing the greatest dimensional mage wasn't easy but the problem was that Blake wasn't even happy about professor Mack's praises.

'So much for hoping. That means I would have to wait for when my Mana control was enough… but come to think of it, he didn't say I needed to increase my mana control or something else which means there is another way.' Blake looked at the professor in realization and noticed a smirk on his face.

'He was able to realize the message in my words, seems I made the right decision.' Professor Mack thought as he continued the class.

When the class was over, Blake was on his way to his room. He made a turn the lonely corridor before his room, but that was when a warp gate opened and professor Mack came out.

"Thank the heavens you move alone if not it would have been troublesome." Professor Mack said as he took him through the warp gate and into his office.

"Tell me the problem you faced while inscribing the 3rd array."

Blake began recounting his experiences while he was forgemastering. "So, I wanted to know if you have another way to do inscribe the 3rd array without having the required mana control?"

"Of course I do, of I didn't have a roundabout method for something like this then why am called a genius?" The professor said with a smirk.

"Before I answer the question do you know about the fusion process? I mean the real one, not the crap the school teaches?" His words stunned Blake for a second before he nodded.

"Good, that is your answer to your question. Arrange the arrays in the right manner and when you are done inscribing the 3rd array, instead of leaving it that way you should bind the array with the other by supplying mana to it." Professor Mack said with his trademark smile.

His words sent both Blake and the system into deep thought.
