****************************************************************************************************************************

Having stuffed himself till he's stomach was burging outward, kalm slouched back against the back support of the chair. Fully satisfied with non to complain about, he reach out for a dry straw hidden previously in between his hair and picked his teeth. ''Ahwaaaa, this is the life, hard training follow by the its weight in reward afterwards, much better then the previous world where work gave me no benefits in the end except my unjustly death.'' thought kalm as he compare his previous life and the one he is living in now.''Though i would give all these up for a chance to see Pa and Ma again.''

The change in atmosphere around kalm as he though about his deceased parents did not go unnoticed by the confused old man.'' This brat, his aura is always so inconsistent, ever fluctuating with so many different kinds emotions, did i not cook enough food to fill his appetite this time round either? and must he be so depress because of that? next time i will prepare an extra 20kg more meat, let see if he can handle that amount then''thought the old man as he mistaken the sudden arrival of kalm's sad expression for not having enough food to eat. Seeing the still depress kalm sinking even deeper into his depression, the old man decided to bring up the topic about magic.

Even since kalm was able to speak in this world's language, he began constantly pestering his grandpa blunt about the notion of magic. As every lucky modern day otaku world traveller who ever got transported into another world with magic would of cause be very interested in it.

It was akin to teen going through puberty discovering the wondrous nature of the object call Boobs and was given a chance to come into contact with it. Thus with the mention of the word magic, Kalm's previously teary eye underwent a quick transformation into that of guy on acid listening to march of the valkyries.

''Haiz, kalm the reason why i had always avoided explaining magic to you is because i myself am a martial practitioner and not a magic practitioner. Thus i do not have the qualification to teach you on stuff about magic.'' the old man signed.

'' All i know is that martial and magic practitioner both have the same tier ranking system as oppose to their totally different usage of mana. So allow me to explain the different tiers instead ''the oldman signed even more as he saw kalm's serious learning face towards magic prior to him dozing off every time he lectured kalm on martial knowledge.''Hmph this brat doesn't understand the majestic power conceal in martial practice, i must beat it into him even if i must force him'' the old man frown as he experience something closed to jealousy.

Continuing on, the old man explained that there were 9 tiers of power with 10 stages in each tier. Beginning from the lowest to the highest is the Mana condensation tier,foundation building tier, spirit forming tier, Soul acension tier, martial/magic King tier,martial/magic emperor tier,martial/magic saint tier, martial/magic Ancestor tier and lastly the Martial/magic Primordial tier. As one progresses through each stage, one would get stronger as like the levels in rpg games.

Hearing the explanation, kalm got an idea of how the power structure in this world was like but still he needed more information, Thus...

''Grandpa Blunt, how big is the differences in power between tiers.''

In responses'' Hmm, lets say 1st stage foundation building practitional will be equal to ten 10th stage mana condensation practitional.And that foundation building tier will be able to run as fast as a horse while the soul acension tier will be able to fly short distances at a time.''

Listening to the old man's lecture,kalm scarlet eyes got brighter and brighter as he anticipate one day he would like to be able to fly in the skies freely like a bird.

Losing himself in his daydream, he was shook back into attention by an unexpected surprise from his grandpa.

''Oh yes i almost forgotten all about it Hohoho, the teacher that would teach you about magic will be arriving in the next few days.''
