Chapter 59: Encounter (1) (Teaser)
Objective of the Mountain of Darkness Practice
The Mountain of Darkness practice aims to enhance the practical skills of mages.
While today’s mana concentration is low, decreasing the chances of encountering powerful demonic beasts, entry above 500 meters is restricted for safety.
Debutants need to earn a total of ten points from this practice. With only six opportunities per semester, make each session count.
1. Discovery of Magical Materials:
: Provide analysis reports on at least three pharmacological or magical materials. (1 point for every 3 reports)
2. Witnessing Mana Phenomena:
: Document your encounters with space-time anomalies or conceptual and abstract phenomena. (2 points each)
3. Demonic Beast Combat:
: Submit records or proof of any demonic beasts you have slain. (2 points each)
4. Magical Insight:
: Write and submit a report detailing your personal growth during the Mountain of Darkness practice. (1 point, maximum of 1 report submission)
※ If you encounter any outsiders, report to your supervising professor immediately!
