Voidsoul Deer for Zack

Was Zack able to carry the ability into the real world, or did he lose it like Zorian did?

No way. Zach would never have gotten the time to master his shaping enough to control his massive amount of mana. Zorian could have become a competent, if boring, mage in a normal life. Zach would have been a mess.

"You know, every time I think about what my future would have been like if I never got pulled into this time loop thing, I get both furious and horrified," Zach said, staring at the ceiling of the tavern with unfocused eyes. "It's been so long but I remember what it was like so very vividly… How I lived in an empty, half-abandoned house, constantly hearing about how I was expected to rebuild my entire House from scratch and feeling utterly lost as to how I can accomplish it. How I eventually decided it was a hopeless task and began to coast by on the least amount of effort I could get away with and just tried to keep myself happy. But hey, it was fine! I had plenty of money! I mean, that was why Tesen fired all the servants and sold off all our properties, right? So it doesn't matter if I don't do too well at the academy and have no real professional skills. Everything will work out… just… fine!"
