Chapter 412: Magic (1/2)

Quite powerful for someone at level one hundred, she thought and started reading through the backlog of notifications from the extended period of fighting.

Time Magic Resistance – 2nd lvl 1

The intricacies of time magic are difficult to grasp, its secrets hidden forever to most who attempt the plunge. A rare few have managed to bend the elusive force to their will, making it a dangerous tool both for themselves and for their enemies.

2nd stage: While it certainly eludes your simple mind, your body has learned that the flows and waves of time are fickle. Bent and shrouded for too many times, you have found a center in it all. A calm in the sea of time. It will take a true master to disturb what you have found to be truth.

No wonder you elude me, with those vague fucky marketing descriptions, Ilea retorted in her mind. She wasn’t truly annoyed, rather enjoying the banter between herself and her subconscious. At this point it was the easiest explanation for the personal attacks.

Back to insane leveling speeds, she thought with a grin, her eyes once more imploding. The bleeding stopped near instantly with her recovery active.

There were two ashen Fae by now, moving quickly through the air and trying to catch the real one teleporting through.

The small forms made it easier for her to control two at the same time. Their movements as well were simple.

For the first time in a while, she had jumped quite a couple of levels in such a short period of time.

She felt that soon, the Zanedin Hunters too would only provide a reasonable growth to her and not the explosive experience she had collected in the last hours.

Now, where’s the layer with the level seven hundred version of you lads? She thought, looking over the remains.

Parts of her body were still pulsing with corruption, only kept in check by healing magic.

A dozen or so creatures remained on the layer, moving alone or in groups of two or three in the outskirts. Far enough away so that the loud battle hadn’t reached their ears.

Ilea spent twenty stat points each into Vitality and Wisdom. There was a very small chance that something would reduce her health to zero with a single hit but the risk still remained and every point of Vitality could make a difference.

I now have six general skills at the second tier and level twenty, she wondered. So there’s no requirement like with the third tier class skills. Or maybe it’s just more?

There was no way she could know of course. Ilea didn’t think anyone had lied to her, she simply though that each bit was a piece of the puzzle. Most of all, she trusted the dragon elf. If she just continued leveling up resistances, she would at some point have a breakthrough.

With so many possibilities present, poison, time, blood manipulation, corrosion, gravity, lightning and even ice, the Descent really was a prime ground for an insane resistance boost. For anyone brave and resilient enough to face the dangers of course. Also with enough regeneration. And something like Avatar of Ash that helped increase the impact of magical damage.

Maybe… maybe this whole place was just built for me? Ilea thought. Just to create the perfect anti magic warrior.

She smiled at the idea but thought it rather suspect. If there was some powerful entity who had built this whole place for a somewhat mundane reason, she would bet her money on a zoo.

Ilea made an ashen spear vanish right before it was about to hit the Fae. The ashen creatures followed after, returned to the magic permeating the very air around them.

“You alright, little guy?” she asked, extending an ashen limb.

Tired

Its eyes were a little smaller now, partially closed as it drifted onto the ashen limb.

Eat?

“You want food?” Ilea asked and summoned one of Keyla’s meals.

The Fae shook its tiny head as it was moved closer to the woman.

“That’s a grave insult. If you were anything but a cute little Fae creature, I’d probably fight you for that,” Ilea said with a feigned warming tone.

Eat

“I mean, go ahead if you need anything from me. Health, stamina, mana. I have it all,” she said and expected a massive maw to rip out chunks of her flesh.

What happened was much less spectacular and gruesome. A simple mana drain.
