My SSS-Rank Clone Talent: I Level Up Endlessly! novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13: The Death of a Poor Mosquito!

"Magic Weakling?"

Drayken's expression turned dark upon seeing the name.

However, before he could speak, he heard a gentle voice:

"Congratulations, you have successfully advanced further."

Drayken turned toward her, saw her rosy face, and smiled. "Thank you."

'This girl's mood swings more than a bird's wings flap.'

"Your talent is not bad. Even though you have an inferior dragon bloodline, you were still able to fill your mana in such a short time and smoothly break through..."

As she spoke, she tugged at her chin, looking at Ray with eyes full of doubt.

"Are you truly just a lesser dragon!? Not to mention, you had an insect (human) bloodline before. Even if you have completely turned into our bloodline, you still shouldn't be able to completely fill your core with mana..." she murmured intermittently.

While Drayken listened without speaking for a moment, there was no need for him to hide his power. Even if it was unusual, he could attribute it to being otherworldly—and that was partially true.

Because he was otherworldly and could gain titles, he was able to accomplish this. That is, if you don't account for the cheat of a talent, which could even defy the system.

"What will I do now?"

"Rest," Lilia said and left the room, leaving Drayken in complete silence.

Drayken looked at the empty room and sighed. He stirred his mind and activated the molecules in his core.

The circle inscribed within it began to move slowly, like gears turning, gradually growing faster and faster.

A faint black light spread outward, just a few inches from his skin.

"So this is Aura?"

He looked at his fist and instantly clenched his fingers.

Bang!

The air whistled, and Drayken froze on the spot.

'The increase is at least two times!'

Drayken thought in shock. He could feel the power coursing through his veins.

His stamina, strength, agility, and physique had doubled!

The unprecedented increase caused him to close his eyes in relaxation.

"This feeling is too good."

At the same time, he could sense the area surrounding his aura...

As a mosquito buzzed past his aura, landing on his nose. Annoyed by its persistence, Drayken felt a murderous urge.

The moment he did, his entire aura fluctuated, and the mosquito froze on the spot.

Drayken took the frozen mosquito, threw it to the ground, and stomped on it repeatedly.

"Ah, that was satisfying."

He shook his head.

"The mana remaining is barely two-tenths of what it was. It really consumes a lot."

Drayken stopped supplying mana, and the black aura around him recoiled and disappeared.

He sat cross-legged again to absorb mana. He was a beginner Rank-1 mage—he would have to reach intermediate and peak Rank-1 before he could push his limits.

Of course, the path forward was clear: just accumulate mana!
