After several seconds passed by, everyone finally came back to their senses.

"Woahhh..."

"Wowww..."

"That's incredible."

"If that thing ever hits me, I'm fucked..."

They exclaimed in astonishment at the detrimental damages caused by a single Mana Bolt spell.

Meanwhile, most people's eyes were radiating fervent heat like devout believers. Within their minds, they thought that with this Mana Bolt spell, they could at least save their own lives when the time came for them to fend for themselves.

Even the two younger brothers of Owen's were showing excited expressions for them to be able to witness a spell being fired for real, like in the games.

Well, a part of those people showed their dread and anxiety about the spell's danger and hazard. Within their minds, it was like playing with a bomb. If they didn't handle the thing well, they would be royally doomed.

"Wow! That is awesome! You are super cool!!"

Not waiting for long, Charlotte, who thought that Jeremy was too cool and had already finished his explanations and demonstrations, started to express her thoughts that were running wildly within her mind for quite some time.

"If I have something like that, I will be able to obliterate anyone who dares to mess with me!! I will pass the tutorial that you have been speaking of so easily."

Samuel, who was standing beside Charlotte and her friends, also expressed his consented opinion with an approving nod.

Everyone else also started to nod their heads one by one in approval at the feasibility of surviving the tutorial.

When Jeremy saw their conformity of thoughts about the spell's usefulness, he calmly explained further about the reasons he had chosen this spell.

"As you can see, this left-handed glove needs an activation code to be able to cast the spell. You should have heard that I spoke a single word before a glowing light suddenly came out of the glove's palm, right?"

When he saw that all of them nodded their heads in consent, he continued.

"The code for this left-handed glove is 'Vitas'. As for the right-handed one, it is 'Milos'. This rule also applies to every single glove within this backpack."

After removing the glove from his hand, he started explaining the activation rule of the spell while pointing his index finger at the backpack beside his feet.

Unsurprisingly, his backpack was filled with more than 35 other gloves, enough for all people here to wear except for Jeremy, of course.

He didn't need something like that when he reached the tutorial zone where the concentration of mana was several hundreds of times higher than Earth.

At that time, he could cast Mana Bolt spell as many times as he wanted...

"Also, keep this in mind... the spell won't work if you don't wear the glove and say the correct activation code of the array engraved on it."

After telling them how to activate the spell, he also warned them about the two requirements before using it.

"Any question?"

Saying till here, Jeremy paused a bit, letting those people organize their thoughts and ask him some questions.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Right after Jeremy had allowed them to ask questions, dead air had descended upon them.

Most people were looking left and right to see if their family members or friends had any questions.

However, that only increased the stalemate of the current situation.

Until some 30 seconds later...

"Why this spell? There is no better spell than Mana Bolt?"

The silent Owen asked quite an important question as always.

Hearing that, everyone else, including Jeremy, nodded their heads in approval at Owen's question.

"Yes, it is as you have thought. In the past dozens of days, I've thought about what spell should be given to you guys to maximize your probability of survival. After a long debate in my own thoughts, I've decided to pick the Mana Bolt spell because of its versatility in various situations. I also have to consider the limits of my current strength. So, the best spell for 'our' current situations is Mana Bo..."

"I want to try it!!"

When Jeremy was calmly explaining the reasons why he had chosen this spell, he was unexpectedly interrupted by the sudden voice of Charlotte's.

'This girl... Sigh...' Jeremy and other people thought in dismay.

Meanwhile, Charlotte, who was feeling thrilled from head to toe while ignoring the stumped looks from everyone, requested Jeremy to try the spell.

Not minding the fact that those people around her knew that she was the one who had screamed in terror like a little girl in a horror movie earlier when the explosion and crashing sounds rang out.

However, after seeing what feats the glove and the spell could do, they also started getting excited.

Going with the flows was good most of the time, after all.

So, they were waiting for Jeremy to let them try it one by one.

Still...

"Don't get overexcited just yet. There was still one flaw with the gloves. Which is... they are consumables with only two uses per glove."

Jeremy shut down the energetic Charlotte and everyone else with a few sentences.

"As you can see, the mana used to maintain the functions to keep the spell potency in its original state is quite demanding. Even if I had already used a drop of purest mana fluid to inscribe each one of these gloves, unfortunately, they could only remain functioning for around two months, and each one of them could be used only two times."

Even if they were ignorant about 'a drop of purest mana fluid', they still got a gist of it. That was... it must be something very powerful and precious.

Speaking till here, Jeremy paused for a bit, then continued.

"Every one of you will get a pair of these gloves as welcome gifts to my organization, which means each one of you can cast Mana Bolt spell for a total of 4 times. Oh... by the way, except for you, Charlotte."

Right when Charlotte had heard Jeremy's words, her eyes brightened up once again with hope.

Since she was a little princess who really loved special treatments from others.

In other words, she was a spoiled brat...

Also, most people usually preferred special treatments from the person you like, right? historical

She was also the same...

However...

"You will get this left-handed glove, together with another right-handed one. That will make you have total usage of 3 times."

Jeremy said with a warm and harmless smile to Charlotte, whom was on cloud nine just a moment ago.

But right after hearing Jeremy's words, she dropped into hell nine in mere seconds.

Concurrently, teardrops started to gather at the edges of her eyes.

Meanwhile, some people in the group were feeling terror within their minds.

It was not a terror from the limited usage of the Mana Bolt spell.

But it was actually a terror from Charlotte's crying..

'The legendary crybaby is coming back...' Frank, Charlotte's father, thought horribly.

'Oh no! Not now...' Thought Charlotte's grandfather, Sebastian Rosenburg.

'Shit!' Samuel cursed in his mind.

Half of the people here knew what exactly would happen if they didn't stop Charlotte from crying.

Shit would get real...

However, they loosened up a bit when they realized that one person could shut her down with a snap of his finger.

Fortunately, Jeremy wasn't that 'heartless' to his friends. That was a thing for his foes and mortal enemies.

"Well, I'm just kidding with you. I will refill it up before giving the glove to you, okay?"

*Hu-uuk*

When Charlotte heard that Jeremy was just kidding with her, she made the 'Hu-uuk' sound, and then she miraculously stopped crying.

Her tears had returned back into her lacrimal glands with some unknown methods.

"Rea... Really..?"

Charlotte asked Jeremy meekly, looking similar to a little girl who got bullied by a hooligan.

"It's real, see? I've already refilled it up a moment ago."

Jeremy said while walking into the garage's entrance direction with a backpack hanging on his back. At the same time, he was swinging the glove in the air for Charlotte to see.

At last, Charlotte calmed down...

In the past, whenever the legendary crybaby Charlotte came back, she would cry relentlessly for a full day until she fell asleep. That's also the reason why they didn't want her to cry ever again in this life.

Even with Jeremy's spells, they were still terrified of her crying within their fragile hearts.

Maybe, that's why they treated her like a princess?

Maybe, they were afraid of her crying?

That's why, when they saw that Charlotte had finally calmed down after being reassured by Jeremy's words, her family members and friends sighed in relief.

Meanwhile, everyone else also started laughing a bit at the current drama that helped alleviate the mood quite a lot, considering that they would soon face life-threatening dangers.

Most of them smiled and laughed warmly at the sudden change of moods.

Not everything was bad after all...
