Chapter 188: Passing some limits (1/2)
He used a similar way to deal with the Rune as Syra had done before with Nivlek's, but instead of using just Spirit Mana, he used all the Elements. So he had Spirit, Light, Air, and Fire using through his Mana Pool, and Dark, Water, and Earth through Mana Gems of his staff, who had the design to focus on the Dark and Water only.
He already had his INT boosted, and he used all the Mana he had stored on his new ring, which was actually Dark and Water Element since those two were the hardest to grow and control for him for now. He tried to balance the different Elements, but not by amount, but by 'weight, 'which he had understood more since he grew, and continued checking his Mana Tree.
The Spirit Mana was still the primary Element, as it was the only one that could affect the Rune's Element, but the others were also helpful. Air Element increased its Speed, the Earth its 'toughness.' The Fire was warming up the opponent's mana, which weakened it a bit but only with the Water Element combination cooling down. The changes in the temperature seemed to affect it.
As for Light Mana, it helped regenerate part of the Spirit Mana, while Dark tried to eat up part of the enemy's, both with a barely noticeable effect. Still better than nothing.
Shingi kept his attack and spread his mana. When he had taken the enemy's mana weak enough to bring no fight, he separated all his mana Elements. He made a Hexagon, with each corner having one Element, except for the Spirit Mana, which was in its middle.
He then used more Spirit mana to connect these corners with the Spirit Element in the middle. And so it started be forming,
On the burnmark, writing started to appear, which was the Old Language Rune for Spirit, the same one that Shingi noticed on the Pillar of his new ring.
Shingi started hearing voices, telling him things, and the amount started increasing.
It seemed like he had passed his limit of using Spirit Element and started having side effects, but no messages for Spirit Madness yet from the System. He didn't even stop to think that maybe there wouldn't be a message, as if he got affected, then it would be too late.
He continued feeding more mana to complete the mark, and the clearer it became, some parts of the burnmark actually started disappearing as it left normal skin behind.
The Spirits' voices were getting louder and louder, and most seemed to be aggressive, wanting for Shingi to go into a killing spree. But he focused on the task at hand.
The whole ritual lasted a little less than a minute, but for Shingi, it was like he worked for hours. Controlling all the Elements at the same time was something that even he had a problem with. It wasn't the same with Phoenix's case when she tried to make the special rune, since back then, she needed just a bit of each Element.
Shingi controlled an amount for each Element that each would be suitable for a top Base Grade Spell. Meaning it was like he was controlling seven different Spells simultaneously, each of a different Element. Even his class wouldn't allow him to do something like that, with no drawbacks.
