Kidnapped Dragons (KR Web Novel)
Chapter 246: The Basement of Vintage Clock (3)
Mana is the manifestation of will.
A will to do something being revealed in an intangible form. According to its use, it was referred to as magic, skills, blessings or abilities.
A strong will required a strong mana but there was a limit to how much will a human could output. For example, it was difficult to add an unprecedented amount of mana into the act of simply smacking someone on the back of their neck, which was why Yu Jitaes Knifehand Strike remained as a D-grade skill.
Ever since the New Era,
The tower of mages located in Northern Europe, commonly referred to as the Silicon Valley of magic engineers,Blue Belt, the centre of magic research discovered something strange during their investigation into skills and magic.
A stronger will required more mana but there was always a wall blocking the way. And once one was to increase the size of their will and overcome that wall, they discovered that the efficiency of their magic would explosively increase.
They discovered 6 walls which they decided to measure with grades.
From the bottom, it was E, D, C, B, A and after the last wall was S grade. Added to that were SS ranked authorities which only sovereigns could access and with several restrictions at that…
Later, more objects from other worlds flowed in as more dimensional fissures opened and people realised that intellectual beings of other worlds were also using similar types of grading systems.
Kikril, Kataran, Kutra, Kotrin… although they used different words, it was just a different way of expressing 6 walls and 7 grades. This proved that the magic research of Earth had reached the foundations of mana and magic to some extent.
However, there was something strange they also found. Going through the record of a certain Level 5 artifact discovered in a dimensional fissure, they came across a grade higher above the Kulyata (SS) grade.
The superhuman researchers of the time were shocked. Even the sovereign of Earth, Witch Valentine, couldnt proceed after placing a foot into the boundaries of SS grade. Back then, the witch had talked of how it was aworld too high for me to climb.
So how could there be a grade above SS?
But despite their repeated research, humans couldnt even come up with any concrete statements about the SS grade let alone what was above (Because the witch, who was the only one in that grade, was scared of human experiments and ran away). In the end, the rank above SS was left an unsolved mystery.
Countless magic engineers and mages struggled to hold back their curiosity.
SS grade alone had the power to shake the entirety of Earth. The reason why the International Superhuman Association could exist, with its nonsensical principle of not allowing other nations to interfere with their military, was because of one individual – the witch.
So what could be the EX grade that exceeded all of those grades?
<[Key (EX)]: WHY…>
<[Key (EX)]: NO…>
Kong kong! The white bird constantly drove its head into the leg of the large mechanical human. It was a childish appearance, considering that it was the target of the human races long-time curiosity.
…That had been his thoughts on the matter when seeing Vintage Clock.
But looking at the large mechanical human in front of him made him change his mind. The guy had a status and presence fitting the size of its authority.
That was the pinnacle.
