Episode 92 – Devour the Free Mana

Previously:

Elaru gives Kiel the ring she had o It had now been enchanted with the spell she had designed andto hi with a happy birthday card

Kiel had to adht into this

“Of course, people would deduce that there is a possibility of your artifact being fake, but the possibility is higher that it isn’t a fake After all, you can use pure mana And it would be impossible for them to channel mana into it and confirm that it is a fake If they can’t confirood as real”

Kiel stared at the elegant ring glittering under the crystal light It didn’t look like an ancient artifact at all But then again, most divine artifacts still looked the same way they did when they were made They could be buried in e

Unlike normal artifacts, which would eventually run out of , divine artifacts contained the eternal power of the Gods – they would never run out of energy

Which is exactly the reason why Elaru couldn’t include ato power it If she included a mana crystal, it would be clear that it wasn’t a divine artifact However, without mana crystals, hoould one power it?

When he voiced his concern, Elaru s has just been enchanted, so the enchantment has still an abundance of mana to power it However, eventually, thatSince the ring wasn’t enchanted by you, it can’t be powered by your ic could only be powered by the sa that only the e who cast the enchantment would be able to power the artifact

“However, I included a Devour spell inside the enchantment, therefore, if you place a free , it will be able to absorb the mana contained inside the crystal”

Devour An arcane ic spell with the ability to absorb free y created inside a soul that was initially ownerless A freshly created mana was flexible like clay, any mind that came into contact with it could mold it and claim it as its own It was exactly because of this that Kiel could use theas his mind was the first one to touch the freshly created mana, the mana would become his

Once the freshly created ain return to its original form No other person could ever turn that y that originally didn’t belong in this world, and as such, it couldn’t sustain its original for once it left the soul If the , at most, in a few days, thefree mana of the world

Mana inside mana crystals was no exception Unless special measures were used to stabilize the mana inside the crystal, it too would become free mana after a few days, albeit, it would remain trapped inside the crystal

Such free mana cannot be controlled and cannot be claiy within it, just like light or heat carried energy, free y, there is a way to use that energy

That’s where Devour spell caic spell could be used to transform free mana into the same type of mana used to weave the Devour spell

Technically, the Devour spell could also be used by es to replenish their mana, however, in practice, this wasn’t viable Unlike the Gods who could impose their divine will on free mana to control it, the Devour spell could only transfor usable, it couldn’t attract free mana towards it

Since the concentration of free h, and the area of effect of the Devour spell was extremely limited, it meant that the amount of free mana the Devour could absorb fro amount of mana used to weave it

The Devour spell was only useful if it was used to absorb a large quantity of mana crystals, for the concentration of reater than the mana within the air

Therefore, the Devour spell was only used in the creation of precious ed in the future, or for weaving ie-scale spells that required many times more mana than was available to the caster of the spell, in which case, a large quantity ofmana of the caster

“Also…” Elaru continued “…I included a backup plan, in case you don’t have any ed…” She paused and looked at hiely “…or if you are broke and can’t buy any…”

Kiel’s eyebroitched “How thoughtful of you…”

“Yes I thought of everything” She nodded seriously “The backup plan is a Light spell I added to allow you to charge the ring with an intense light beam”

“Great…” Kieland started channeling his ht for kirine

Thebeco at all for hi up any kind of resistance at all This phenonified that it had successfully synchronized to his h it

“Alright It’s been synchronized” Kiel declared
