Alex's entire body seemingly started burning, but this was only an illusion created by the fruit.

As soon as Alex swallowed the first bite, he felt like his muscles started to catch on fire.

Yet, for some reason, this sensation wasn't exactly painful. It had some painful aspects to it, but a certain feeling of excitement, restlessness, and energy came with it.

Alex had never tried steroids in his past life since that would ruin his career, but he imagined that steroids felt similar, minus the slight pain.

After some seconds, Alex noticed something.

'This feels very similar to absorbing Mana, just way more intense,' he thought with excitement.

Due to the intensity of the experience, Alex also noticed something else.

Alex looked at his body and touched his head.

'I haven't noticed it before since the Mana always felt gentle, but my head actually doesn't feel any of the Mana. My entire body feels like it's heating up, but my head remains cool. It's almost like my head isn't affected by the Mana.'

Alex frowned.

'The God told me that I would be unable to practice magic. Is that what he meant?'

'Logically, Mages should get their abilities to cast spells by increasing the power of their soul and mind. At least, that's how it always worked in RPGs. I guess it works similarly here. After all, these kinds of people are called Mages, and they harness the power of the environment to create powerful attacks.'

'The God said that Mana is the main reason how people could become so powerful in his world, which means that all the power of people hinges on the usage of Mana. There should be something in my body that allows me to absorb and control Mana.'

'I guess Mages probably absorb the Mana with their souls and minds, leaving their bodies weak. There has to be some drawback to an advantage. Otherwise, it wouldn't be entertaining. I mean, wasn't this the entire reason why the God made his world like this and why I'm here?'

'So, in essence, Mages probably don't absorb Mana with their bodies, but with their mind. If a Mage ate this fruit, they would probably feel this sensation only in their head, while I feel it across my body.'

'The thing that stores and distributes the Mana across my body probably has no connection to my head, making it impossible for Mana to reach it. That's probably also why all the Mana gets dumped into my body since it has nowhere else to go.'

'What am I doing?!' Alex thought as he gritted his teeth. 'I'm currently filled to the brim with Mana, but I'm thinking about such stuff that's so far in the future?! Get a grip, Al- argh, Shang!'

Alex immediately shot up and climbed higher on the tree.

Then, he jumped with all his power and readied himself for a huge impact.

BANG!

Alex felt pain shoot throughout his arms and knees as he hit the ground.

Then, he quickly stood up and ran to the tree again.

As Alex climbed up the tree again, he noticed something else, which made him narrow his eyes with a gleam.
