Chapter 7
“But will I be able to use this spell outside?” Zevien was worried as he frowned, “if my mana turned volatile with this spell, it would spell trouble.”
Zevien decided to practice his first awakening spell in this place. At least inside the magic labyrinth, he didn’t think his mana would lose control.
Closing his eyes, Zevien muttered, “First Vehemence, Somatic Anger.”
His emotion of anger also affects this spell slightly.
Stretching his hand forward, a purple orb materialized in front of him. He thought about the moment he lost Vernisia, which caused him great anger, and the purple orb got potent as it turned darker.
He also added more mana into the orb until he reached the limit.
The purple orb stopped growing after it became the size of an adult man’s palm.
He willed the purple orb to shoot forward towards a boulder…
*Boom!*
The three-meter giant boulder was destroyed via that purple orb’s pure force magic attack.
However, there was one more use of the First Vehemence. Zevien cast the spell again and initiated the First Vehemence, Somatic Anger.
This time, he controlled that purple orb and infused it inside him.
*shua…*
A purple aura surrounded his body, and he felt his overall physical strength increasing. Although he was in his magic eidos body, it still had the same physical properties as his real body once inside a magic labyrinth.
‘If I internally cast this spell, then it won’t go out of control,’ Zevien thought with a glint in his eyes. The internal-casting style was about casting the spell inside the user’s body. This type of casting is used for spells that buff the self, and Zevien could do the same with his awakening spell.
Zevien’s Somatic Violet Four Vehemence awakening magic spell had four effects with dual applications:
First Vehemence, Somatic Anger. (Pure magic attack power / Physical buff)
Second Vehemence, Somatic Happiness. (Healing power / Spell-potency increase buff)
Third Vehemence, Somatic Fear. (Mind attack / Fear & Pain suppression)
Fourth Vehemence, Somatic Sadness. (Defensive barrier / Despair aura)
After Zevien checked all the effects of his awakening spell, he sat down calmly and entered meditation so that he could stay in the Labyrinth longer.
As it was his first entry here, there was no need for him to explore it.
While in meditation, he suddenly thought of something, ‘could it be that I awakened this magic labyrinth because of that mystical being? Although I haven’t seen records of this Violet Spectrum magic labyrinth, it’s pretty clear that it’s an all-rounded type magic labyrinth, and I can do internal-casting on my first awakening spell.’
Zevien felt that he awakened this magic labyrinth because of his problem with mana. Since he could internally cast the awakening spell, at least he wouldn’t remain weak.
‘But I have to fix this problem as soon as possible. Simply doing internal casting is not the way to go,’ Zevien thought with a frown, ‘I can’t fight my way up just by using internally casted spells.’
At that moment, Zevien remembered the last words that the mystical being said before he initiated time to rewind.
‘I have to grasp all opportunities, whether good or bad, or risky…huh. Aside from that, I can do a lot of things. First, I need to earn a lot of money, and that company as well,’ Zevien thought as he opened his eyes. He would not waste the six years of memory advantage that he had.
‘That project of fairy spirit magic as well. We were close to summoning our first fairy after reaching 99% progress in creating that spell formation.’
Zevien had unknowingly summoned some fairies, and even though they only stayed for a few seconds before disappearing, Zevien and Vernisia had recorded data about them.
Zevien also focused when he felt like the summoning was happening, which allowed him to understand the spell formation slightly each time. Both Zevien and Vernisia were close to creating a spell formation of a similar summoning circle that manifests when a fairy is summoned.
He wanted to complete that spell formation as well. But for now, he had to focus on his current situation and must stay as long as he could in the magic labyrinth to increase his magic power.
Time passed as Zevien reached the one-hour mark. After staying for a total of one hour, he was starting to feel faint fatigue, but he was not close to his limit.
He had resolved his mind, and his will was formidable because of the drive inside him. He knew that the path in front of him was hard to walk, especially now that his and Vernisia’s destiny had changed.
He would have to give not 100% but more than a 110% of his efforts on whatever he does.
One hour thirty-minute mark
One hour thirty-five-minute mark
…
Zevien was feeling oppression in his will, and if he gave in, his magic eidos body would immediately leave the magic labyrinth.
The magic power was slowly infusing into his magic core, and he knew that his magic core was more potent than before.
Currently, his magic core was half-covered with bizarre patterns. Most of those patterns belonged to his awakening magic spell.
From his estimation, he can probably learn three tier-1 magic spells. After that, he won’t be able to weave any more spells in his magic eidos body.
Of course, that doesn’t mean he can’t cast a spell that he didn’t weave into his magic core.
It’s just that, after weaving a magic spell, he only needs to cast it, and the spell formation will activate to release that magic spell since the spell formation is interwoven into his magic core.
Otherwise, he can create the spell formation of a spell he didn’t weave but still know and cast it. But after that one cast, the spell formation is dispersed, and he will have to create its spell formation again, which takes more time and is not viable in combat.
It is also possible to remove an interwoven magic spell and weave another spell instead. But to ultimately increase the limits of weaving more spells, one has to upgrade their magic core by consistently training in the magic labyrinth.
