Adventures Of A Goblin

My mana property being of the Fire attribute means I no longer have anything to fear in this inferno like world.

But, I kind of sense a drawback to a huge advantage like this.

'Oracle, if by any chance I happen to run out of mana, how do I refill my mana guage if my mana composition is made entirely of fire attribute'.

I ask this because, when I used the mana gathering skill to take in mana amidst the rampaging volcanic mountains and bubbling lava, there was a side effect brought about because my affinity with fire wasn't solid enough,

Now that my mana composition is now dependent on fire, and my affinity with it spiked up than ever, what will happen if I am not in a fire friendly environment and I try to absorb mana from it to fill my mana guage.

[it is as master has guessed. Master's mana can mostly only be replenished in an environment filled with fire attribute].

[there are alternatives to which mana can be absorbed in a non fire attribute environment, however the process will be very much slower when compared to a fire attribute environment].

hmm....,

The disadvantage is not as bad as I thought it was going to be. As long as I can still refill my mana guage regardless of how slow it is, I can still manage.

For a second there, I thought I was going to be living only in a fire attribute environment and be restricted from moving anywhere out of it because of the repercussions that comes with having a fire type mana attribute.

But it's a different case if I can still gather mana from a non fire attribute environment and without any side effects to boot.

Man, I love my new body.

"rumble..."

And..., I have to start taking care of it more.

I neglected any further tests and sprint towards the supposed entrance where I came from.

I was able to bypass all the traps laid down by simply running past it.

Finally, I got to the starting lane I woke up from after escaping from falling into the lava during my encounter with the fire bird.

Talking about the fire bird, I chose it as the entity to maintaining my hunger level.

I know what you are thinking, but you couldn't have been more wrong.

The only reason why I chose the bird is because that is the only monster I have had an encounter with and deemed good enough to munch on.

I do not plan on going after it for something like revenge for almost killing me, I am going after it because I need it's meat to survive.

Before I hunt for food, there is an issue I have to first attend to.

How did I end up being in this passageway in the first place?.....

The last thing I remember, was me drowning in the lava, and then boom, I woke up only to find myself in here.

I need to find my way back, but how?.....,

There has to be a trigger or something, anything I can pull to get me out of here?..

[master, I sense the use of teleportation magic in the surroundings].

'teleportation?....., do you mean the one that moves you from one point to another without walking or taking any physical transport, like poof, magic'.

[yes master, it can best be described that way...].

hmm..., teleportation magic uhu?.....

'Oracle, is there anything you can do to use the teleportation magic to transfer me back to where I was before I ended up here'.

[i am currently analyzing the activation process of the teleportation magic, once I am done analyzing, I should be able to use it to send master back].

'nice, I will be counting on you for that'.

***

[master, I am done].

'that was incredibly fast of you'.

[the mechanisms for operating the teleportation was within my range of knowledge and not too complicating, thus my reasons for getting it fast].

'Oracle'.

[yes master].

'the new you, rocks.....'

[that is not all master. I have learned and absorbed the method for drawing the teleportation circle and can now use it whenever the master so desires].

[the condition for activation is for master to have once been at the place master wishes to teleport to].

'.......'

'i don't even know what to say anymore now.....'

'a thank you isn't enough to express how I feel, nor is a good job enough to commend you for what you have done'.

[master I....].

'I know, I know. You exist only to serve me and are just doing what is necessary to do so. You have said it so many times already'.

'it's just..., thank you'.

'alright, get this teleportation stuff in use and swift me out of here'.

It started with a ray of light emanating from the ground beneath me,

It shone brightly and circled around me, illuminating all the way into the passageway.

A weird pattern inscriptions drew itself inside the circle, starting from the inner end of the circle and eventually encompassing the whole circle itself.

All the while, I could feel my mana vacating my body, but not enough to pose any problems for me.

The mana consumption rate for using the teleportation is not so trifling as it is with using my other skills when I was an ordinary Goblin.

I don't know if it has anything to do with me evolving into an half-spiritual entity, but I noticed that so far, my mana consumption on skills has gotten considerably low as compared to when i was just an ordinary Goblin.

Even though the consumption rate has gotten lower, the effects of the skill wasn't affected by it.

If anything, I feel the skill effects to be even more potent when compared to using them as an ordinary Goblin.

Damn..., being an half-spiritual entity and an Infernal Goblin race is one of the best thing that could have ever happened to me.

And none of this will have been made possible without the help of Oracle.
