BXBX NOVEL Chapter 131: Sage's Path
Rain thought for a while and then recalled all the dirt that they had removed from the ground to move the river. Maybe they could use that, but it will take a while to make something like a wall. Rain\'s hands were already busy with that, and the wall wouldn\'t last long against the magic people anyway.
Still, Rain sent a response that was what he recommended for some mages to do that. If they do that or not, then the problem won\'t be his anymore.
In any case, after the tenth day of working on the river, Rain couldn\'t help but assume that the enemies wouldn\'t bother them anymore. Sixty percent of the job was already finished, and another surprise arrived for Rain.
(You reached the necessary requirements to unlock a new path.)
Mage\'s Path Lv 50: Sage. Wisdom + 10 per level up)
The Sage\'s Path is a journey of wisdom and mastery over mana. Sages are learned individuals who harness the elemental forces and mystical energies to cast powerful spells and support their allies in times of need.
Level 1: Meditation - Enter a deep meditative state to restore mana and increase mana regeneration rate.
Level 5: Insightful Mind - Enhance your wisdom by five points per level, gaining a greater understanding of the world around you.
Level 10: Mana Infusion - Infuse your spells with extra mana, increasing their potency.
Level 15: Inner Calm - Maintain composure even in the midst of chaos, reducing the effects of debuffs.
Level 20: Barrier of Mana- Create a protective barrier that reduces incoming damage for you.
Level 25: Mana Flow - Improve your mana control, allowing you to channel spells more efficiently.
"Sage, huh… this isn\'t half bad," Rain thought.
Rain got lucky that the first skill was meditation, and since he had been using that for years, the skill was at such a high level, and so was the path. Rain felt his power increasing thanks drastically to it, and that feeling sure was something else.
"Thanks to this, I guess it is clear that I will finish the job in time," Rain smirked.
Since the Sage path focused on improving the mana pool of those who had it, and the skills all supported that kind of thing, Rain\'s skills won\'t improve much. Still, he will be able to use them more often, and he was fine with that.
The soldiers around noticed that Rain began to work faster, but they had no idea how that was even possible… They expected that the job would end in five days, but it ended after three. In the end, Rain surpassed his own expectations. All three villages\' inhabitants looked shocked while seeing the river passing nearby their homes.
They heard that the organization had a mage that made the realm recover Tristan, but they didn\'t think that the mage would have come to help them.
"The contract says that I should work here for two weeks… I suppose I should fulfill it completely," Rain said while rubbing his chin thoughtfully.
In the end, Rain turned the extra dirt around the river into a natural defense. While a wall would have been better, he made a long slope that was pretty steep on one side and, on the other, had several points where it could be easily climbed. He could only make it in front of the villages, but it was better than nothing.
When it was time to return home, Rain received a lot of gifts from the villagers and even the guards. While almost none of them wanted to work with him before, they continued working on using the extra dirt around the river to complete what he had started. It will take a while, but they should be able to finish it in a couple of months. Perhaps less if some mages come to help them.
"I guess this is their way to make up for nothing, helping that much," Rain thought while he was traveling with an even heavier backpack. "In any case, this is good training… my mana and wisdom exceed all of the other parameters, so I don\'t have to worry too much about that for now."

"Meditation alone made the path reach level twenty-five… this is quite insane, huh," Rain thought. "Well, I have been using this for five years, so it makes sense."
Rain was in a good mood thanks to all that… he could use his magic for longer, but he also could make his spells more powerful. Impulse definitely will make him arrive home faster now. Still, it wasn\'t about time for Rain to test that yet.
"I will have to wait for one week to test it, but I can\'t wait… it will be awesome if I can reach home in less than six hours," Rain thought and then realized how fearsomely powerful people in that world could become. "I thought that Branden was strong to be able to open a hole in the wall of a fortress, but I was wrong… we still are big fish in a small pond."
