Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

My Mana was gone. A single spell cost more Mana than what I had, this drained me and left me exhausted. I was able to use Wind Magic, and perhaps I can use every element as well, but the most basic of spells cost all the Mana I had! Ugh, how talentless can I get? At the end, I decided to absorb a Spirit Orb I had in my pocket because I felt a bit exhausted after using my Mana.

[Spirit Orb has been absorbed]

[You regained +7 Mana]

Hahh… Much better now.

Without Mana, a person grows tired and fatigued. Even more when the mana disappears in an instant, incredibly quickly and out of nowhere. It might even leave sequels in your mind or soul, and even cripple you.

This is worsened when you have an incredibly low amount of Mana such as myself… this is useless, I cannot properly use magic in battle if a single newbie-level spell leaves me drained. I can probably constantly absorb Spirit Orbs to regain mana, but that's just inefficient. I might as well just use the powers I have available within me.

Even Eleanora's magic-like skills seem to use less of my Mana than the Wind Cut Spell. And its power wasn't all that impressive either. Although it appears that this world's knowledge of magic is incredibly low, they all rely on their spirits to do everything and in what they call Spirit Techniques.

Is this why they don't use conventional magic? I remember that Erika's father had said in his diary he had a book of forbidden spells…

Perhaps I should try to get that.

But for now, I can assume that this world's level of magic knowledge is not near enough as other planets I had visited. One of them such as Magi, the world of mages, a planet that was populated by mages and governed by them… I had spent a large amount of my childhood there after leaving the trash planet I was born in with Eleanora.

In that world I learned many things about magic and magic conjuration, and Eleanora did so as well… compared to that place, in here, everyone has no idea how to use magic aside from through their spirits.

And the only ones that could have a remote idea of how to use magic, the spirits, are not even allowed to use it! Then I guess I shouldn't expect much…

I could practice more magic spells, and waste away my spirit orbs, but I can already assume that if I can use wind, one of my least favorite elements which affinity I barely had before, then I can safely assume I can use every element, but I just need more Mana and Magic Power.

There are ways to increase Mana permanently, one of them is by simply cultivating it and refining it constantly through the body like Qi or Aether.

The other way is by using special magic tools, consuming potions, and certain foods, that can increase the power of my Magic and increase my Mana Pool.

And well, there's the concept of this world, such as Cultivation. The Spirit Orb in this world is what produces a lot of Mana aside from my very soul.

While my soul began to produce mana after my Spirit Orb awakened, it only produces roughly 30% of it, while the Spirit Orb takes 70% of it.

So without the Spirit Orb, I would be even more talentless with magic…

Without it, I would only have like 3 points of Mana! What a terrible talent. I feel ashamed of myself now.

The cultivation of a Spirit Orb happens through various methods, although I must investigate further. My father had said that killing monsters helps, drinking mana potions made out of spirit orbs by an alchemist, which is the expensive method only used by aristocrats, and there are also other ways such as techniques of mana cultivation and refinement.

I suppose I can practice the later because I can easily combine my previously learned techniques with this world to make the most efficient ones even with my measly amount of mana.

And of course, there's the method I had not included because I think it is something ridiculous, leveling up. I need 10k EXP for that. Each wolf gives 100 EXP, I need to kill 100 wolves. I doubt there are many wolves around this forest, in fact I believe I might had killed half of them yesterday.

And now I've been sitting here for two hours with Eleanora, and none had shown up. They're clearly not here anymore or scared of the "monster" (me) that took them down. My only hope now is to seek new prey around, as they're clearly not approaching me anymore. I currently have 1900 EXP… I still need to kill at least… 81 wolves.

Ugh.

"Eleanora, we are tracking them down, let's try to follow any scent or clues, we need to find that wolf nest… or any damn animal, I want EXP." I sighed.

"Very well!" said Eleanora.

We quickly began to move across the forest as I had already given up on the idea of using magic to fight for the moment.

"So magic won't be a thing?" she sighed at my side as we ran around.

"For now, until I can procure a larger Mana Pool… My father said that after killing a lot of monsters he felt stronger and even his mana had increased, so leveling up can directly increase my Mana Capacity… it is the way to go." I said.

"I also want to Level Up and see how it is!" said Eleanora. She seemed a bit childish than at other times. Well, perhaps because she indeed looked like a child now. Maybe she was trying to act cute, or maybe she was simply being more open and honest now that we could adress each other more casually, but there was certainly a charm to her innocence even after thousands of years of having lived together.
