Ascension: Strongest Fateless Mage

*screeee…..*

"Is this mana material phase?" Touma muttered as he looked at Zevien inside the glass chamber.

Zevien was not in a human form right now. His skeleton was attached to the scuffs of the bed, but it also looked strange and was sparkling with black and white.

As for his body? One could hear painful screams from black and white-blue energy whirling around in the glass chamber. Zevien had turned into something strange, and it was painful because of the clear aching sound coming from it.

At this time, the whole city and even past that was experiencing a strange phenomenon where the mana within 500 kilometers area was turbulent. People couldn't absorb it and couldn't control it.

Touma didn't know about that phenomenon outside, but he soon received a call and several messages.

"Touma! Is this your doing?"

"Why didn't you inform the government that you were commencing the experiment!"

"What is the situation?"

Touma frowned in annoyance and sent everyone the same message.

[Don't disturb me and don't come into the lab, or some mishap might happen. I am recording everything, and I need to focus.]

…

After another ten minutes, Zevien returned to his human form, but his magic eidos body was still outside, floating on top of him and going through volatile changes.

"What is going on?" Touma muttered as whatever was happening to Zevien was outside his knowledge.

"Arghhhhhhhhhhh....."

Zevien was screaming in pain after returning to his physical human body while massive changes were happening to his magic eidos body.

"Don't give up, Zevien…," Touma muttered. He didn't know what was happening, but Zevien must not die. He wanted to see what would happen, and for him to see the changes, Zevien had to live.

If Zevien died, his magic eidos body would disappear since once people die, their magic eidos body also dies.

…

"Yo, we meet again, boy."

Zevien's mind arrived at a dreamy place. He was standing on top of clouds with the night sky and sparkling stars in the background.

His gaze was blank, but he soon heard a familiar voice and saw a 12-year-old kid wearing pajamas in front of him.

"It looks like you really did take that risky opportunity, hahaha."

Zevien regained his focus and remembered everything before looking around, "what is this place? Why am I here? Did the experiment fail, and I died?"

"You haven't died yet, but your magic eidos body is going through changes and evolving. Anyway, since we met the 2nd time so soon, I suppose I should tell you my name, hehe."

"What's your name?" Zevien asked before he creased his eyebrows, "also, you said I haven't died…yet? Does that mean that I might die?"

"First, you can call me Euclion," Euclion spoke with a grin, "as for your other question…Yes. You might die if you give up. Because of the transformation happening in you, your consciousness arrived here. I sensed it and decided to meet you."

"What is happening with my body and my magic eidos body? Since you could rewind the whole world's time, you should also know the future, right?" Zevien asked with slight anxiousness.

"Hahaha, of course not," Euclion loudly laughed while shaking his head, "can you see something strange in the sky? Focus and try."

Hearing that, Zevien looked up and squinted his eyes to see. After looking for one whole minute, he didn't see anything special other than just a starry sky.

"I can't see anything, but it seems strange that I don't see moons or suns," Zevien spoke while shaking his head.

"You can't? It seems that this accident in the experiment didn't elevate your consciousness enough to see outside of the Magia realm," Euclion muttered before smiling, "if you can't see it, then forget about it. As for the time rewind, that was not purely my power. I borrowed it from the Fruit of Time."

"What?!" Zevien was dumbfounded, "what do you mean Fruit of Time? Are you saying there is a tree that can grow fruit with the power of time? What the hell!"

"What are you doing here, Euc? Come outside; we need to stop that rampaging bastard quickly. You know that the majority of my mana is being used elsewhere so I can't exert my full power."

Suddenly, a man wearing sunglasses, shorts, and a colorful open shirt with a medallion hanging from his neck appeared.

"Wait a few minutes, man. You all won't die-"

"Idiot, you angered it, and now it is following your aura. Get the fuck out of here before it hits the Magia realm!" the man spoke with a frown before glancing at Zevien and waving his hand, causing Zevien's consciousness to disappear from this dreamy place.

"I wanted to say something to him," Euclion spoke as his 12-year-old appearance revealed a cute pout, "also, you could handle that bastard if you were not experimenting by creating that dimension. Ah yes, that guy you saw is also going through an experiment, hahaha."

*crack….*

Suddenly a slight crack appeared in the sky, revealing a black space with colorful dreamy motes and a giant red eye with eccentric black patterns in its iris.

"Shit!" Euclion cursed as he disappeared.

When Euclion disappeared, the giant eye also disappeared while the remaining man, who looked to be in his late twenties, sighed and repaired the crack by using his power before disappearing as well.

…

"Arghhhhhhhhhh….."

*thak…that…that…*

Zevien continued screaming with his eyes closed as he felt immense pain coursing through his body and mind.

His body was constantly trembling while his magic eidos body had returned to its normal appearance outside, but its fundamentals had changed.

It was slowly going inside Zevien's body. Very, very slowly, as if it was adapting or adjusting to his body, and the more it went inside, the more pain Zevien felt.

Touma saw that there was no rampage of mana or energies anymore as he entered the chamber and observed Zevien closely while muttering with a frown, "just what the hell happened?"

He couldn't see in-depth, but he was sure that Zevien's magic eidos body had completely changed. He just couldn't see past its outer layer.

"Zevien, you must live!" Touma uttered as he grabbed Zevien's hand, "if you don't live, then I wouldn't know what happened to you or what changes appeared in your magic eidos body after this experiment!"

"You must live!"

Zevien was only thinking about Vernisia, which kept him alive and prevented him from giving up.

'Vernisia…I will come back.'

'I will come back to you.'

He imaged the places he and Vernisia would go to, their adventure, their life together, and such things as he fought to survive and tried to ignore the pain.

After one hour of constant pain, his magic eidos body finally entered his body, and right after that, he lost his consciousness and fainted.

Touma checked his pulse and heartbeat for thirty seconds as his face changed.

At first, he sighed a relief, but after several seconds, he frowned, 'why is it slowing down? No, this is abnormal!'

He hurriedly called medical support from the government, and not even a minute later, five people entered inside as they were waiting for Touma's message outside of the lab.

They arrived and stood outside the glass chamber, "what happened?"

"Was it successful?"

"Where is the medical support?" Touma asked as he continued checking Zevien and didn't turn back.

Right after he finished speaking, several doctors entered inside with big suitcases and took out several sci-fi medical items and equipment.

They entered the glass chamber before checking Zevien, taking a bit of his blood and imbuing their mana inside his body for various checkups.

"His own magic eidos body is overpowering his physical body. At this rate, he will die after one hour, his body will turn into motes, and his magic eidos body will disappear as it happens with all people who die," one doctor spoke with a frown.

Touma looked at a middle-aged man in a suit outside the chamber, "Merax, use your magic spell, mana drain, and suck the mana out of his body."

One of the doctors nodded, "good. We can temporarily extend his life after sucking all mana out of his body, but the fundamental powers of his magic eidos body will remain and put pressure on him."

"But I think only he can save himself as we haven't seen such a case before. It's tough to get proper parameters and status of his magic eidos body," another doctor spoke.

Merax entered inside and touched Zevien's chest before absorbing his mana using his magic spell.

"Are there any changes in his mana?" Touma asked.

Max frowned and shook his head, "two answers: the magic power in his mana is approx 34. However, my gut tells me that there's something mystical in his mana and his magic eidos body, but I can't see or sense it clearly."

"What materials did you use in this experiment?" A man standing outside the glass chamber asked.

"All of them," said Touma before he stated, "Stone of Pristine, Mana Rever Crystal, Crystal Hex Mana Branch, Eidos Magic Roots, Requiem Resin, and that drop of Hi-Zyr."

"Fuck…," muttered the man with short dark blue hair, "what was the ideal result you expected if the experiment succeeded?"

"Ideal result?" Touma shook his head with a wry smile, "I didn't calculate or come to such a conclusion yet. I only followed the parchment we found in that location and mixed those materials and ingredients to create two serums."

*dhoob*

"Then why did you commence this experiment?!" the man spoke as he punched the glass chamber with an angry face, "we don't have an abundance of those things you used in this experiment."

"I found a chance and opportunity, so I decided to do it on Zevien. He had that conviction and fire in him that made me believe he would survive this ordeal," Touma replied calmly, "anyway, we will know the result once Zevien wakes up."

"But he is dying! Can't yo-"

*Zzzzzzzzzzzzz...*

Suddenly, everyone in the chamber was pushed away due to the unexpected burst of magic power exploding from Zevien's body as his eyes opened and he uttered, "I AM NOT DYING!"

"I REFUSE TO DIE!"

"Zevien!" Touma's expression brightened as he looked at Zevien, "how are you feeling? Can you like activate your power or some trigger? What changes do you feel happened to your body?"

Zevien moved his head a bit as if he was groggy and his thoughts were not collected, "I-"

*poof…*

He disappeared.

Everyone in the lab was dumbfounded.

"How come he suddenly disappeared?!"

"What the fuck?!"
