[Mana Control has been greatly enhanced.]
'Hm? This is new..'
Feeling himself drifting in the endless darkness, Lake reacted to the system interface that magically appeared in his head.
[The flow of mana through the host's body has become smoother. The recovery and absorption speed of the host's Mana Heart has increased greatly.]
Reading the message in his head, Lake nodded in understanding. He already knew that by upgrading his Spellcasting skill, his Mana Heart would undergo some changes.
'I expected as much, but how come the system is pointing it out this time?'
Lake was confused as to why the system had suddenly taken the time to point out these upgrades when it never did so before, but the next message cleared up some of his confusion.
[The Host has maxed out all skills of a role! System upgrade shall begin in one hour. Estimated time until completion: 15 days.]
Hi! Author here, this announcement is related to the lack of updates recently. I had originally posted a message relating to this announcement in the next chapter a while ago, but realized that it was a premium chapter and no one was reading it, since everyone was smart enough to not buy premium chapters because of the lack of updates.
Thumbs up to my smart readers!
Facepalm for my blunder.
Anyway, like I said, this announcement is due to the long period where I haven't been uploading chapters.
To put it simply, I've been overworked and barely have time to write chapters. I've spent the last month(January) trying to clear out as much work as possible and could say that I have made significant progress(that's why I'm updating again).
However, I still have a long way to go before I can start updating properly again.
My plan right now is to finish off volume 2 as we were already close to the end.
Once volume 2 is done, I'll probably end up going into a long hiatus for a while(Hiatus estimated to end around the end of July if started) and stockpile some chapters while dealing with my work.
Anyways, that is the situation and I'm sorry for the inconvenience. It's a little bit late but I wish everyone a good and hopefully productive year!
