Chapter 291: A Time of Change



Chapter 291: A Time of Change

‘The Blessed Water spell [Aqua Imperium Universalis] has been created.’

‘Would you like to identify its properties?’

As the system asked him as to whether or not he wanted to check the new spell’s effects, it came without saying that Argentum was eager to look as to how strong [Sage’s Water Magic] was in its current form when it came to bringing spells to life. Accompanied by a notification sound, a small holographic screen, which had the same Water-themed design as the skill’s spell creation module, soon appeared in front of his field of vision with the text at the top portion slightly glowing a faint gold. Looking at it, Argentum could not help but wonder as to whether only Blessed Water spells had this type of design.

Nevertheless, he hastily placed the thought at the back of his head as he focused his sense of vision towards the description and the effects of the spell he had just created. Surprisingly, it only took a single skim of the whole screen for him to be left with an aura of disbelief, shock, surprise, and all other emotions related to the previous ones radiating from him at an immense level. Taking around half a minute for the aura radiating from him to return to normal, he then took in a deep breath as he looked at the screen in front of him once more, making sure that the effect he had hastily read through a while ago was, in fact, true.

Ding!

________

[Aqua Imperium Universalis]

MP Cost: 100 MP per second

A Blessed Water spell forged with the knowledge and comprehension of [Sage’s Water Magic], it is a spell designed by the user to enhance all of their properties to incredible heights, allowing them to surmount the gap of combat power when it came to fighting stronger enemies. Due to the property of this spell taking on the Water element, which is considered an all-encompassing and flexible element, the purpose of this spell synergizes very well with the element, thus bringing out more of the spell’s potential.

Of course, since the element of Water is all-encompassing, in terms of offensive properties that could be improved by the Fire element, agility-based properties that could be improved by the Wind element, and defensive properties that could be improved by the Earth element, it is still lacking.

> 50% boost to all stats

> 50% boost to HP and MP

> 50% boost to HP and MP recovery rate

> 50% boost to movement and attack speed

> 50% boost to skill effectiveness

> 50% boost to damage

Note: Whenever [Sage’s Water Magic] evolves to a higher grade, the spell’s boost increases by 25% for each Mortal grade, and 50% for each Transcendent grade.

Letting out a sigh of awe from the effects brought about by the spell, Argentum instantly decided that he was not going to discard the spell as its effects were far beyond his previous expectations. Not only that, but the note at the very end of the spell’s description could not help but make him curious about the future, a future where all of his abilities would not just be boosted by 50%, but by an increment far higher than that. At that point, he would more or less become invincible, right?

“Speaking of which, it seems that the system takes my words literally,” Argentum said to himself as he closed the screen soon after, mulling over the words he had said when describing the spell’s purpose. He then continued to mutter, saying, “In this case, every specific detail when it comes to describing the spell would be taken into consideration.”

“If that’s true, then if I told the system that I only wanted my stats to be boosted…how high would the boost be?” he continued to mutter, this thought surfacing in his mind as he thought that the skill was truly flexible when it came to spell creation. Naturally, he had a feeling that the output of such a statement would lead to a spell boosting his stats to an incredibly high degree, but he felt that the current skill would serve him a greater purpose in the long run.

After getting a better idea as to how the spell creation system of [Sage’s Water Magic] worked, Argentum thought that it was now a good time for him to head back to the Verdant Blossom Branch Alliance. In his mind, he decided that he would spend the remainder of the time before the deadline grinding his skills up, focusing most of the remaining time onto [Sage’s Water Magic]. Of course, he thought of enhancing his understanding of the other elements to the True Element level, but eventually thought that the boost they gave would lose out to normally grinding his skills. Not only that, but he also took into consideration the amount of time it would take for him to achieve such a feat.

Looking at the current position of the sun, which was at the peak of the sky, Argentum patiently waited for his MP gauge to return to full capacity as [Niflheim Horizon] had reached its time limit while doing so. It was only after about 10 minutes after [Niflheim Horizon] had disappeared did his MP gauge recover back to full, unhesitatingly going ahead and casting all of his movement speed boosting buffs.

While doing so, he thought about casting [Aqua Imperium Universalis] to get a better feel of it. But then, he recalled the amount of MP it consumed every second, discouraging him from doing so as he plotted the fastest route back to the Verdant Blossom Branch Alliance through the system’s map feature.

Whoosh!

And just like that, he was off on a journey to head back to the Verdant Blossom Branch Alliance, but at a slightly slower speed thanks to the loss of a single status boosting spell. Nevertheless, he was still able to traverse the distance from the inheritance to the alliance at a time comparable to before, only taking around 9 hours or so for him to be greeted by the entrance of the alliance once more.

Taking a short glance at the full moon that mingled with the stars at the sky, Argentum then headed straight back to the Tower of Seclusion. Along the way, he could not help but look at what changes had happened in the alliance while he was gone, noticing that the collective aura of the alliance had become a bit more intense. This made him inwardly let out an aura of slight glee as he knew that the members of the alliance were in the process of improving themselves, just like him.

Making sure to close the entrance to his room as silent as possible, Argentum let out a sigh of relief before sitting cross-legged at the center of the room as he pondered over his plan once more. Taking in a deep breath to compose himself, he then started to think out loud as he muttered, “Calculating the remaining time before the deadline, I more or less have around a day to grind all of my skills…or rather, a day to grind [Sage’s Water Magic].”

Letting out a light chuckle in the process, he went ahead and psyched himself up before going ahead and closing his sense of vision as he attuned his energy to the somewhat abundant amount of Water energy particles in his room. And just like that, he dedicated all of the remaining time before the deadline towards the greater comprehension of [Sage’s Water Magic].

At the very first instance he started trying to peer into the intricacies of the skill, he noticed that the rate at which he understood the skill was far slower than the other skills he had grinded up to this point. Wondering as to why, he then remembered the note at the end of the skill, telling him that his comprehension rate of the skill has been halved due to the difference in existence level and understanding.

Nevertheless, that did not stop him from making great strides in comprehending the skill when compared to others. By the time his grinding session had reached the 5-hour mark, he had achieved the Master level of mastery on the skill, evolving the skill to the next grade. Surprisingly, a few notifications came from the evolution of the skill, informing him that he now had an additional slot to create a Blessed Water spell, as well as three additional slots for True Water spells.

Without hesitation, he stopped his grinding for a short bit and used the spell creation module of the skill to create another Blessed Water spell, having a feeling that making the spell at the very instant the skill evolved would be the greatest choice. After pondering over what type of Blessed Water spell he needed the most for about a few minutes or so, he decided to create an ultimate art spell which took on the shape of multiple meteors made out of ice. And thus, the spell [Eighty-One Meteors of Frozen Grandeur] had been made, its name courtesy of the system.

After that, another fifteen hours had passed, with Argentum achieving the Master level of mastery on the skill once more. Evolving the skill to the next level, Argentum now had a basic idea of what he needed to do for the skill, opening up the spell creation module before pondering as to what kind of Blessed Water spell he should create this time.

At this moment, thoughts about the upcoming existence tribulation surfaced in his mind, prompting him to think about the buffs he had in his arsenal. It was at this time that he noticed that the buffs he could cast on others were highly biased on the offensive side of the spectrum, though he did not think that it was a bad thing. After mulling over it for a bit more, he decided to make the Blessed Water spell a one-time cast version of [Aqua Imperium Universalis], creating the spell [Supreme Aqua Benefica: Selfless Variant]. Unsurprisingly, this spell was also named by the system.

Although Argentum wanted the skill to at least evolve one more time, the deadline he had set had already come up, prompting him to stop after twelve hours of immersion into comprehending the skill once more. Letting out a sigh of slight disappointment, he then went ahead and stood up before lightly stretching his body, a thing he now commonly did after finishing a long session of training. He then checked the status of [Sage’s Water Magic], somewhat becoming satisfied after seeing it reach A-grade Mortal level at the Expert level of mastery.

Taking in a deep breath, he then went ahead and boosted his movement speed before heading towards the corridor that connected the alliance’s small ecosystem to its main hall, only taking a couple of minutes. To his surprise, by the time he had arrived in front of the corridor, Horell and Herellia were already there, conversing with one another as to what aspects of themselves had improved.

At the very instant Argentum appeared in front of them, the two stopped what they were talking about before greeting each other with auras of glee and elation. And if one examined closely, one would even see a hint of expectation radiating from them.

After that, the three of them went ahead and examined each other’s usual auras, with Argentum noticing that Horell’s aura had become more solidified, as well as more powerful. Taking into consideration that the hue of Horell’s energy had become a darker cyan, he could not help but ask him, “Hey, Horell. Did you evolve?”

“Uh-huh,” Horell nodded as he let out an aura of slight glee. “I’m now a Greater Mana Elemental, allowing me to gain more control over the mana around our surroundings. Naturally, my combat power has been boosted as well.”

“How about you, Argentum? What kind of gains have you made during the past week?” Horell asked Argentum as an additional response before adding, “You look quite satisfied.”

“I’ve just grinded all of my skills, that’s all,” Argentum replied, letting out a light chuckle in the process. He then added, “Anyways, once Herellia’s existence tribulation starts, I’m pretty sure you two will be surprised at what I can do.”

“I’ll be waiting for it then,” Herellia said in response to Argentum’s words before recalling the improvements she had made during the past week. Letting out a sigh of satisfaction, she went ahead and told them, “Before you ask me what improvements I’ve made, I’ve more or less improved in the skill department. I can assure you that my power right now is comparably stronger than what I showed before.”

“Glad to hear,” Argentum said in response to Herellia’s words. He then focused his sense of vision on the two of them before asking them, “So…shall we start the main event?”

Without delay, Horell and Herellia radiated auras of affirmation, which was mixed in with excitement and expectation, prompting them to activate their movement skills soon after. Naturally, Argentum activated his movement speed boosting spells as well.

Whoosh!

And just like that, the three of them headed towards a place far away from the Verdant Blossom Branch Alliance, all three of them eager to become a part of what seemed to be an era of change for Tempest Cliff.
