Blood Assimilation

Randy followed the reception girl to another room; however they were accompanied by a middle-aged man who seemed to be a worker in this awakening center as he had on a white coat almost as if he was doctor or scientist or something along those lines.

But Randy only glanced at the other party for a bit after they greeted each other. He felt like he might have seen him before, probably when he came here in the past

But he soon shook his head to get these thoughts out of his head since this was not strange at all, after all this was the awakening center, a place he had frequented more than anyone else and thus running into someone he met before in the place was not something to think much about and with that thought, he followed closely behind the reception girl.

…

The Mana Measurement Department.

They came here to measure his magical energy or mana and, in a process, receiving the corresponding mana ranking, after which, the result will be combined with the ranking of his measured statistical result, and thus, eventually acquiring an official ranking.

However, this was only to assess his ability, so they did not have to measure every single basic statistic to give the final verdict.

If one wanted a detailed measurement taken, then you can only visit the [Hunter Association] where they had specialized measurement tools for accurate measurements of various energies and basic statistics including speed, agility, stamina, and many others.

Randy decided to check for his magical energy instead of the other energies in his body after all, at the moment, he mostly used magical energy rather than the other forms of energy.

He looked at his energy section on his status screen as he stood by the side as they prepared the machine to measure his magical energy.

At this point, the middle-aged man from before urged him to place his hand on some blue orb that had some cables attached to it.

And then he explained to him, "This is the magical energy measurement device. It can measure or roughly estimate the amount of reserve mana or magical energy you have based on the amount of magical energy you transfer into it while also regulating the magical energy within your body. It is highly complicated to explain it in more detail, but just know that it can roughly tell how much mana you have with a slight negligent deviation, however it will not affect the general result displayed in the end."

Listening to this explanation, Randy only nodded in understanding and then step forward, placing his right hand on the blue orb.

Soon, he closed his eyes to sense and pinpoint the energy he wanted to use, he tried to pour some mana into the orb, but the orb did not let out any light and then as suggested by the middle-aged man, he also regulated the energy within his body through circulation through his meridians.

And sure enough, after a while, the orb visibly let out a bright light-blue light and the result were soon displayed on the projected screen right next to the measurement device.

{Mana Points: 1000}

""1-1000 mana points?! Isn\'t that the same amount as a fourth-circle magician."" Two unified shocked voices resounded behind Randy.

Both the middle-aged man and the reception girl exclaimed when they saw the results. Indeed, this time, it was not only the reception girl that reacted to this, but the middle-aged man was also surprised by the result.

And then he muttered in disbelief: "This much mana already and he is not even a magician?"

\'Normally, those with reinforcement or enhancement-type abilities do not have that much mana to begin with as they were akin to those evolved human in some aspect, thus most of time associated with each other. Evolved humans usually have unique abilities that involves altering their bodies on the fundamental and due to that, they usually have variation to their abilities. For example, being able to transform into a certain wild animal inheriting their traits or simply shapeshifting into other forms. People with ordinary bodily augmentation or reinforcement-type awakened cannot compare to them, unless this young man was an evolved human that is unaware of the fact or concealed the fact. If that is the case, then that will make more sense why his mana point was so high despite being a reinforcement-type awakened. It is quite possible that this really was not just some ability awakened but an evolved human\'s ability, meaning there is a possible room for growth as his mana right now is as strong as an adept magician\'s mana pool. Very interesting.\' The middle-aged man deeply thought and then concluded with a full understanding of the young man\'s abnormal mana pool.

After a few moments, an electronic voice suddenly resounded after a while to confirm the results: [Measurement Complete. 1000 Mana points!]

At this moment, the middle-aged man walked up and stood next to Randy, patting his shoulder, and then said in an amiable tone: "Your mana pool is equivalent is a fourth-circle magician\'s mana pool which is C-rank and combined with your physical strength in a reinforced state, you shall receive a C-rank High-State."

Randy purposefully showed a surprised expression, however the other party misunderstood and then quickly said: "You don\'t have to feel dejected, because with your current mana pool alone, you should be receiving a C-rank Low-State but considering that your physical strength was at B-rank, we gave you a C-rank High-State instead. You should know that the amount of energy one had is more important than their physical strength."

Randy carefully listened to him and then respectfully nodded in response: "I understand."

"Hm." The middle-aged man also nodded as he was pleased with his composed behavior and then said to him: "Now that we have everything taken care of, you should wait right here for now as your identification card will be issued to you in a few moments."

"Alright." Randy replied.

A few moments later, the middle-aged man brought him his awakener\'s identification card with his name and rank listed boldly on it.

Of course, there were other details pertaining to his type of ability and other miscellaneous information.

Essentially, this was no different from his student identification card, with a slight difference. His mana signature had been imprinted on it, so no one can use this identification card, even if they wanted to, in case it goes missing.

And also, to display the information on this awakener\'s identification card, he only needed to insert a little wisp of his magical energy for the information on it to be displayed; this card was in a sense customized for only magical energy users.

After all that is taken care of, Randy was escorted out by the reception girl and then immediately left the building shortly after.

…

After he left, the reception girl suddenly displayed a pondering expression while looking at the door leading outside of the building.

And then, she suddenly fell into thought and blankly muttered without noticing her surrounding: "He really does look very familiar… Why do I feel like I have seen him somewhere before…"

At this moment, the middle-aged man suddenly approached her out of nowhere, and said in a knowing tone: "Lin Murong, stop talking nonsense and focus your job"

"Ah, no sir, that\'s not what I…" She was startled and tried to justify herself.

However, the middle-aged man waved his hand dismissively and said to her: "Don\'t worry about it. I was only teasing you. I know that you were not implying something indecent, but you\'re not wrong about your statement. Even I also felt like I have met him before and it wasn\'t simply just once. He sort of reminds me of a kid who came here frequently with his parents to awaken his ability, but the machine always registered him as not having even an ounce of energy inside his body every single time. Even after being exposed to various kinds of energy, it was still the same result over and over again. At the time, I only came to visit a colleague and found out that he was in distress after failing to aid the kid to awaken his ability, which ended up with me helping him out, but ultimately still failed to help the kid awakened in the end. But that kid can\'t be him, right? Too bad, I did not bother to look at his name back then, so I can\'t be certain if it is that kid from back then."

"Ah, that\'s right! No wonder I thought he looks very familiar. I remember that I was also the one who registered that boy and his parents whenever they came in every single time, to the point that it became quite strange. However since the parents were pretty famous in this city, I did not mind it too much."

She said in reminisce and then a sudden realization dawn on the reception girl, Lin Murong and then she doubtfully asked in confirmation: "Sir, are you sure that\'s not him? He even had the same surname \'Smith\' as the Smith family in this city."
