《Try Me!》Chapter 5: The Interface 2

Pure energy
Energy in the atmosphere without form. Creature’s body absorbs the energy and their Soul Root converts the energy into mana to use as a fuel for Spell Matrices to cast a spell. Or creature’s body itself converts the energy into Qi to nurture and temper the cells in the body to strengthen and improve the body.
Soul Root
Essence of the being’s soul. Soul Root converts the pure energy into mana to be used by spell matrices to cast a spell. Soul Root’s rank determines the speed of conversion and purity of the converted mana. And that determines whether the creature can become a Wizard or not. Only creature with C+ or higher Soul Root Rank can become a Wizard because lower ranked Soul Root can’t convert the pure energy into a mana pure enough to nurture the brain cells durability to endure storing a mana.
Soul Root’s rank highest rank is S and lowest is H.
Mana
Force that is converted from the pure energy by being’s Soul Root. Mana is stored in the brain cells. And creature uses the mana to nurture and expand the brain cells capacity to store more mana. Purity of the mana can determine the speed of nurturing and ease of use by Spell Matrices. If you try to absorb and convert more mana than your brain cells can handle your head will simply explode. So, in order to store more mana in your brain cells you need to increase the durability of the cells by nurturing them with mana over time. Mana exists in a form similar to steam and more you store in your brain cells more compact it becomes. Thus, the reason for need to increase the cells durability. So that it can endure the pressure from more mana in it. At some point mana will start taking form of liquid after your cells can endure enough pressure to compress the mana to the point of becoming liquid.

Spell Matrix
Matrix that is used by creatures to use convert mana into specialized form of mana and cast relevant spells. You first draw the Matrix in your head and visualize the effect then infuse the matrix with your mana from your brain cells then the matrix converts the mana into specialized form, directs the mana and unleash the spell. Every spell has a necessary specialized form of mana. For example, if you want to cast a fireball you need to convert your mana into an elemental mana.
Spell Matrix is determined by the rank from H to S and that determines the Wizard’s rank. Higher the rank, stronger the spell casted will be.
Spell Matrices are categorized natural and custom ones. Natural Matrices are ones that creatures are born with something like racial matrix, like dragon’s breath or vampire’s vampirism that converts life force in others’ bodies to mana or qi. Custom Matrices are ones that are created by intelligent beings to suit their needs. Those ones anyone can use as long as they have the Matrix and sufficient mana.
But as long as you know the Matrix for natural ones and high enough Soul Root rank you can actually use it but problem with that is difficulty to use that. Lowest required rank is at least B+ because to use natural Matrix of another race requires high mana purity and quantity.
So those are what is most needed by the those who are determined to become a Wizard. But it says here that highest Soul Root rank is S but Interface says mine is SSS. That’s kind of weird.
Now for the body tempering.
Body Potential
Indicates being’s body’s potential to be nurtured and tempered by qi converted from pure energy by being’s body itself. Creatures that uses Qi to nurture and temper their bodies are usually called warriors for they use their tempered bodies to fight. And Body Potential rank determines speed that the body can convert the pure energy into Qi, purity of the Qi, body’s speed to be nurtured and capacity to endure tempering. Higher purity means higher efficiency and quality of nurturing and tempering.

For being to become a warrior lowest their body potential rank can be is C. Because Qi is a very aggressive life force different from vitality so body must be strong enough to endure the initial tempering, if not every cell in being’s body will simply burst into flames.
Qi
Life force that is different from vitality that is more aggressive that is converted from pure energy. Creatures use Qi converted from pure energy to nurture every cell in their body except brain cells to increase the cells capacity to be tempered. Then they use the same Qi to temper their cells to increase their body’s strength, flexibility, speed, reaction speed, durability and endurance.
Martial Arts
Martial Arts are codified systems and traditions of combat practices. Beings who use Martial Arts are called warriors. After training the combat practices warriors can use Qi to perform techniques relate to practices to fight. And techniques like spells ranked H to S and that determines the Warrior’s rank.
So according to this my body is what is called simply trash, lowest of the low huh. So, I guess there isn’t much hope in physical department huh. Well consolation is I got a brighter future in the spiritual department so that’s a plus. But problem is I don’t really know any kind of useful Spell Matrix. I seems I only know matrix for fireball.
And it seems humans really doesn’t possess any kind of natural Matrix.
But traits seem interesting.
Traits are your natural abilities. They are a part of who you are, what you do and why you do it. It is possible to attain new traits as you nurture and temper your body and brain cells. High enough tempering can give you unique abilities depending on your personality, quirks and knowledge. Well pretty much anything unique about you can give you new special abilities if you temper your body to high enough rank.
Hmm those are really interesting. According to this I can gain new abilities just depending on tempering without Spell Matrix. That will be helpful. Specially, considering my body’s atrocious state.

In this chaos, as the world begins to unravel in foul ways, something else stirs. Something else found its way through. Author's Note: I will update this story as often as I can. I am quite busy and write this during breaks at work. This is one of those goon-squad stories with a million characters, so "dizzying" might be a good way to describe the energy. Much of what builds up to the first arc happens in the first ten chapters, which are quite long. For that reason, if you have difficulty getting through the story, I understand, though things don't really start happening until Chapter 8-10.
