"Ugh..." Haren groans. Piercing ringing reverberates in his ears. Slight nausea and blurry vision accompany his awakening.
When he tries to rub his eyes, he realises his hands are chained to the wall.
The ground feels rough, the ceiling seems wide and high. Where is Haren being held?
A moment later, Haren recovers his senses. He is in a large circular room chained to a lonely pillar standing in the middle.
Moreover, the atmosphere has no mana lingering. Odd.
An hour passes before the door opens, letting a whiff of mana in. I show up with Liam behind me.
Haren glares at me and I return it with a grin.
"Hello."
"What do you want? Just kill me."
"A dead person has no value."
Haren's class is a Mana Manipulator. A Mana Manipulator in theory is not a Mage. A Mage by Bestokia's definition is someone that absorbs mana and enhances their energy core, allowing them to cast stronger spells. A Mana Manipulator, on the other hand, focuses on Mana Control and only absorbs Mana to store them. Hence, Mana Manipulators only increase their energy core's size.
Thus, I isolate Haren from any Mana possible. In this Mana Vacuum Chamber, little to no atmosphere Mana is present; The chamber's structure is built with Edulium, a mineral that repels Mana.
Currently, we are in Oras, a city fortress constructed on the North border of Rodgof. Monsters' appearances are frequent here and sometimes soldiers capture monsters for research. Some monster utilises Mana and they store those monsters here. Using Liam's connections, I was able to rent this place for a reasonable expense.
What about the Mana within Haren? His long coma allowed me to absorb every drop of mana and boost my Magic Statistics.

Fucking fabulous, I can be mistaken for a High Mage.
Haren clicks his tongue and smirks.
"You won't get anything out of me."
"I know. You are simply a researcher working for the Demons." I reply.
Haren's arrogance drops.
"Who the fuck are you? How do you know..."
I throw a glance at Liam, who nods in response and left the room.
"I know a lot of things about you Haren. I know you have a daughter you adore dearly. I also know that you are the sole disciple of Pharoh; Despite your looks, you are fucking old, close to seventy." I say with a grin.
Haren's attitude from before vanished, his eyes as wide as they can go, and his jaws drop open.
"Y-You..."
