Returning to the palace, I entered the closed training room after a long time.
It was to use what was bestowed at the New Year’s party.
‘It’s an S-class elixir… … .’
Even before receiving this, he was already preparing to consume the elixir.
The time to take the next elixir was approaching, and I had to grow quickly.
Now that I have some time to spare, I was going to get another A-class elixir.
It was fortunate in many ways that the Queen personally gave him the S-class elixir.
‘I’m really looking forward to how it will feel.’
The S-class elixir was something neither I nor my brothers in my previous life had ever tasted.
I ate as much as Carl Ronberg, the eldest son.
‘If I absorb it properly, I’ll reach a lower 5-star level, right?’
Originally, my plan was to take the A-class elixir once again and reach a 4-star level.
After that, I focused only on training and quickly reached 5 stars.
Then, as declared at the New Year’s party, you will be able to sparr with Morgan.
‘There’s nothing good about dragging it on for a long time.’
Considering the atmosphere of the Alexander family and the background of the kingdom’s founding.
The strength and potential of the person who ascended the throne was a pretty important factor.
Even if it was just the queen right now, this factor had a big effect.
In other words, if I, a 5-star, show the skills to stand up to a 6-star Morgan, the situation will be greatly shaken.
‘If Morgan is weak compared to his level, he’ll be able to win, but if not, it’ll be a bit difficult.’
Of course, that’s assuming that he doesn’t use heavenly spirits and telekinesis.
There was a huge gap between the 5-star and 6-star levels.
‘It’s kind of hard to fight at the risk of losing, but I can’t help it.’
With the difference in the current weight class, Morgan’s forces would be pressured even if they stayed still.
If you do a lot of good against him, this situation will be solved quite a bit.
‘The worst thing for me would be Morgan avoiding the confrontation, but that’s not possible.’
It was also a decision based on his personality.
Because, according to common sense, there was no reason to avoid this confrontation.
So, as Morgan, I would find my actions absurd.
‘It’s absolutely impossible for a wizard who has just become a 5-star to beat a 6-star.’
This was also the case for me.
No matter how much I do, if I fight without using Skadi’s power, the odds are close to zero.
Even if you use it, it won’t be an easy fight.
‘It’s about time to reveal it.’
I had built a sufficient foundation, so there was no reason to hide my power any longer.
Disclosure was risky in the past, but now it will act as a huge benefit.
‘Actually, this is the real purpose of hanging out with Morgan.’
The main reason I provoked him was to reveal that I am the owner of a heterogeneous soul.
Rather than revealing it normally, it would be more effective to show it in a state where everyone’s attention is focused.
[Cruus, you’re not having fun.]
… … What kind of nonsense is this?
[Hey man, he doesn’t seem to be able to hear me.]
‘Does that mean it’s not fun?’
[okay. Contracted beings can normally have conversations.]
Although a wizard who has become a Elementalist cannot use magic.
It was possible to make a contract with the return.
Of course, such cases were rare as phantoms who tried to make contracts with wizards were rare, but… … .
There were cases like that, so Skadi had expectations.
[I was going to use it as my servant… … It’s just a pity.]
‘Is that something to regret so much?’
[of course. In the spirit realm, nothing is impossible with just my words.]
… … Leaving Skadi’s regrets behind.
Before drinking the elixir, he decided to summon the heavenly wing.
‘It’s because you have to get used to calling and handling it before you can use it in real combat.’
Actually, it moves on its own just by calling it, so I wonder if this is necessary.
There was nothing wrong with summoning them, so it was close to calling them.
“Kyuwoo!”
The summoned Cheon-Gak made a cry with its eyes shining happily.
… … If you look at the real appearance, it’s okay to be treated as an expensive pet.
Snug.
After lightly touching the ceiling, he took out the elixir he had brought.
“How long will it take this time?”
gulp.
After taking a deep breath, I swallowed the elixir.
Then, the sensation I had experienced half a year ago shut up again.
Feeling the mana melted in the air one by one, this heterogeneous feeling.
‘I’ve been thinking about it before, but with this, it’s clear. This is closer to the spirit’s sense.’
He recalled the purification work he had done earlier by borrowing Skadi’s senses.
A sense of being able to feel mana in detail, which was impossible before.
The difference is that Skadi’s senses are somehow calm and stable.
This felt a bit dizzy.
‘Is it because it was artificially created? It’s amazing.’
Just as a human body can breathe but cannot see air, so did Mana.
It was a concept that could be accepted and felt, but not seen.
In this state, it is not so.
You will be able to see invisible mana, and you will be able to feel it more than usual.
This meant that the amount of mana that could be accepted soon increased.
Tsutsutsutsu.
I accepted more than usual mana and converted it into magical power.
Surprisingly, I didn’t feel any difference from the A-class elixir.
‘I think the feeling is the same… … Is it a higher grade because it lasts longer?’
He accepted mana at such a frightening speed.
I felt something strange.
‘… … Why can I still accept it?’
I already felt that I could accept it beyond the limits of a 4-star intermediate level.
I looked at my body, wondering if it was an illusion of my senses, but it wasn’t.
‘The acceptable amount has increased.’
I soon realized that it was thanks to the elixir.
It temporarily increased the amount of mana that could be received at once.
In other words, through the elixir, the total amount of mana that can be used at once was increased.
There was not much difference in the senses, but the achievements that could be obtained were higher because of that.
‘It’s like a balloon.’
It can accept mana to a terrifying extent and convert it into magical power.
The limit was not visible.
‘This is why it is said that it is better to touch an S-class elixir only when it has 6 stars.’
There was no significant difference in sensory changes from A-class.
This could be dealt with at the 5-star advanced level.
However, I thought that it would be possible to measure the limit of the amount of magical power that can be accepted only at 6 stars.
If you make a mistake, you will suffer from considerable aftereffects.
‘… … When the queen gave me this, did she expect me to be able to judge it?’
Judging from the encounters so far.
The queen was not a person who made reckless demands out of recklessness.
Unexpectedly, there was a heart that thought of children.
If it were me, I could measure the limit of this amount of mana that I could accept endlessly.
‘… … Okay, let’s set the maximum to this level.’
The amount of mana he had received was four times the usual amount.
From now on, you just have to keep accepting this amount, and repeat the work that puts a burden on the core while operating.
“Kyuu-?”
It was the cries of the heavenly watchers.
The sound he made with a slight tilt of his head meant that he could help me a little.
“… … how?”
When I go into this work, I cannot speak because I have to concentrate highly.
So I had to check it out now.
“Kyum!”
Keying.
The heavenly eyes shone fiercely.
Maybe it’s because I’ve only seen her as cute so far, but I felt a bit intimidated without even realizing it.
I felt the mana that filled my body flow somewhere.
“… … Did you take the converted magic power?”
“Kyum!”
Then, I felt the mana flow that had escaped again.
‘That’s right, it’s possible to share magic with the heavenly angle.’
I’ve seen that there is a phantom water that can do this.
That means… … .
“You mean you should accept more?”
“Kyuwoo!”
In this way, the training efficiency can be increased.
Because it can shorten the time to accept mana.
‘And if this is possible… … Heaven’s angle seems to be more helpful than I expected.’
I came up with a way to use mana in this way and use it in battle, but I stopped for now.
Training is the priority now.
You should do as many of them as possible while they are in effect.
coo coo coo coo.
He began to use the mana that flowed into his body.
Work that wraps the whole body and puts a load on the core.
This has never been easy.
As the realm has risen, the amount of mana that can be used is greater than that of the 2-star, but that’s also the case.
Because he really accepted and operated to the limit, the risky feeling reached the limit.
In the past, even I, who was recognized for my magical power control talent in my family, was at a difficult level.
‘… … Should I reduce the amount of mana I accept for the second operation?’
There were too many of them, so it took more time.
while thinking about this.
Tsutsutsutsu.
The somewhat unstable flow has stabilized.
Cheon-Gak took some magic power and adjusted it.
‘… … What is his real identity? It’s the first time I’ve seen such a phantom beast.’
While admiring Cheon-Gak, he focused on management.
The amount of mana that can be accepted at once has increased, and the efficiency of training has greatly increased as it is adjusted in between.
coo coo coo.
The tsunami of intense magical power was quickly operated.
By simultaneously sending them to the body’s circuits, he controlled them to the limit.
It was pumped through the heart’s core, putting a constant load on it.
Originally, there were too many of them, so I had to focus heavily on this flow.
Thanks to the support of the Cheon-Gak, I was able to focus on repetition of the operation without paying attention.
When the load was applied quickly and without rest, a change occurred.
It was a mark carved into the heart’s core.
4 stars from Intermediate to Advanced.
The fourth trail finally reached five and succeeded in climbing to five stars.
‘I still have time.’
His whole body was already drenched in sweat because he had been concentrating on training for over ten hours.
However, the higher the realm, the more time it takes to train.
Considering that I wouldn’t be able to take the elixir for a considerable period of time, I couldn’t stop here.
coo coo coo coo.
For the rest of the time, the result of mana management with the help of the heavenly angle.
I finally managed to reach the 5-star Intermediate level.
Considering that right after taking the elixir, I instinctively thought that reaching a lower 5-star level would be the best way.
It was a really great harvest.
“… … ha.”
The moment the effect ended like that, a sigh came out without me knowing.
It was a reaction that came out naturally because the whole body was tired.
While the effect of the elixir remains, you can receive mana indefinitely.
At the same time, it also had the effect of reducing fatigue.
When the effect of the medicine faded, the recoil came.
Intense fatigue and exhaustion rushed through his body.
‘It can’t even be compared to the 2nd star.’
I was tired even then, but not to the point where I couldn’t stand it.
This is because the realm has risen, and with the help of the heavenly horn, a greater amount of mana has been consumed.
It was to the point that if I took off my clothes and wringed it out like this, sweat would come out like water.
I was so tired that I didn’t even think about changing or washing my clothes.
“… … Thank you, Cheon-Gak. That was a big help.”
“Kyuwoo!”
With the eyes of the heavens filled with joy.
I fell asleep, tasting the sensation of forcibly closing my eyes.
