Chapter 179: Training at Hideout part 6 (2/2)

When he was finished once more, the final resulted creature moved, and actually, it dug its way down, but it didn't leave a hole or any signs of digging.

He moved on to the Light Element Wall and started shaping the harp. But even then, it seemed to lack something.

'Could it be that it needs me to form Lailah too?' [Shingi]

A harp by itself was incomplete without the musician, and until now, it seemed like he needed to have a complete set. This was proved by the fact that the pearl needed the oyster. But he had never met Lailah, but he had heard a few stories for her, so he started using what he knew.

He started shaping her, and the closer she got to it, he started feeling some adjustments to be done by themselves. It was like someone was guiding him, and he focused on those guides as they seemed to bring results. When he was complete, and it seemed like it lacked nothing, nothing happened, and he knew that something was lacking.

He focused on the figure and what could be missing, but everything seemed to be in place. Then he had an idea to try.

He started shaping wings for her, two pairs of wings. Lailah was an archangel when she got the harp, or so the story he had heard said, so it made sense that he needed to make them. An archangel had at least two pairs of wings, and he doubted Lailah had more than that many.

He visualized the wings of Avea and starting reproducing them, but only two pairs of them, not all three. When he finished with the last feather, he noticed no movement, and he was ready to just try to move on since the way wasn't blocked.

But then her hands started moving, and she started playing the harp, but no music was produced. She also seemed to be singing, but no voice was heard either.

So he moved to the last wall, which was the Dark Element One. He started forming the dark crystal and the staff, as also Kelvin the Necromancer. He expected that all this would be needed this time, so he worked on them together.

He had faced Kelvin many times, and his appearance was always the same, so he had no problem shaping him. He finished it in record time compared to the rest and saw Kelvin hitting the floor with the butt of the staff as undead start being formed. The undead was then disappearing, and he was doing the same move and same effect like an endless loop.

Shing was ready to move to the next step, but he wasn't certain what that would be. He looked around and noticed that everything he created was placed to form a circle.

So he moved to the center of the circle and noticed a small white stone. He started focusing his Spirit Mana on it and notice the stone reacting. It was starting to get bigger but barely noticeable.

He started pouring as much Spirit Mana as he could, and the stone started changing shape to form a pillar and then started getting taller. After a point, he noticed thin lines of mana connecting each creature he made with the pillar. Each of these thin lines had the same color as the element they were connecting the pillar with.

The larger the pillar got, the wider the lines, and Shingi could feel them all be strengthened. He could also see on the pillar a certain carving that he had recognized from some talks he had with Syra for the old runic language. It was a rhombus that his bottom lines continued spreading a bit, making it look like there was a triangle with no base under it.

This was the old runic language symbol for Spirit.
