"Ugh, I am so tired…! I-Is it done?" Eleanora asked.
"Not yet, we are slowly forming the Runes…" I said.
"What element will you choose?" She wondered.
"I checked, my affinity is Blood and Darkness as always. The other Elements are merely used as Continue reading more chapters on NovelHub for the best experience.
If I want them to deal actual damage, I can fuse these elements with my main affinities as I've done already." I said to Eleanora, as she seemed to understand rather quickly.
"I see, I suppose that's the best thing you can do as of now… So which runes will you make then?" She wondered. "Wasn't Soul Runes also good?"
"Yes, I can as of now make a hundred runes. I actually have already calculated, with 30 Soul Attribute Runes is enough to use Tier 2 Soul Magic, the rest of the runes will be put into Blood and Darkness evenly. These runes will also affect your magic, as you'll be able to use magic through magic circles too, not just your natural magical-skill abilities." I said.
"It is alright by me! If you think you can bring one of our comrades back to us sooner, then I am all up for it!" Eleanora said happily.
"That's a good response…"
And then, I quickly began to mold the leftover essence into many runes, thirty Soul Attribute Runes and 35 Blood and Darkness Runes. With that, I can begin practicing the Tier 2 Spells. Even though my Magic Circle will be a fresh Tier 1 Magic Circle, a magician can always use a tier above their own magic circle (although with a lot of effort).
This is how I was able to use Tier 1 Spells without even having a magic circle, effectively having Tier 0.
After roughly half an hour, the magic circle was finally finished, it was filled wondrously with red, black, and yellow runes shining brightly, illuminating all of my soul. That wasn't all, as I felt my connection with Eleanora strengthen even more than ever before. I also felt as if my Mana was flowing even more naturally towards her.
"Oooh! T-This feeling is amazing!" Eleanora said happily.
"You can feel it as well? The Magic Circle is finally done." I said with a nod.
Eleanora quickly jumped off my Spirit Orb as I summoned her, and she suddenly pointed at the sky, forming magic in seconds.
A sudden spiral of flames emerged out of a small, red-colored magic circle in the tip of her fingers, shooting up into the skies and then exploding.
The explosion was rather potent, with this you can easily set in fire a house and perhaps kill Gray Wolves with a single shoot. This was the Tier 2 Fire Attribute Spell [Flare] a stronger version of [Fireball] with a greater range and explosive power to it.
Of course, it was enough to kill small fry, but bigger prey won't easily get down with one of these, or multiple ones. I am sure that demons can even resist Fire Attribute due to Hell being in flames all the time, so even if its Tier 2 Magic, it won't do much damage even against Imps.
But it was surely flashy.
"I-I can finally use magic on my own! Yaaay!" Eleanora began to jump around, as she suddenly conjured even more Magic. "Gust!"
A gust of winds surged from her feet as she was able to fly high up in the sky. Then, she turned into a small blood bat through her [Blood Bat Transformation: Lv1] Skill, reaching even higher in the sky. Seeing her use that Skill reminded me of her own Skill Points for a moment, which she had yet to use. Maybe she had gotten some new ones? It would be worth to check them out.
However, there was no way I would be able to bring her down now, she was incredibly happy playing with her magic. I couldn't possibly interrupt her… even if I wanted.
"Lightning! …Lightning? Uwah!"
Of course, I didn't had infinite Mana, the moment it ran out, Eleanora fell off the sky. Even her transformation required Mana, so she ended falling into the floor. I quickly caught her with my arms, but she was rather heavy, so she ended making me fall.
"It's fine. I was glad to see you happy… ugh."
Eleanora quickly jumped off me and stood up, cleaning her clothes and mine from the dirt. She seemed happier than ever before. Is using magic something she had wanted for a while? Even though it is particularly weaker compared to her main element affinity which are the same as mine?
"You seemed way too happy, I couldn't possibly bring myself to stop you." I sighed.
"Hahah… Sorry about that. I had forgotten how fun it was to use elemental magic. Even if it is weak compared to my main Skills." She said while shrugging.
"I agree, magic is certainly fun even when you use it for thousands of times over, for eons, even. Magic never ceases to amaze me and make me wonder how far I can get with it." I said with a smile. We both sat down again, as I quickly decided to ask Eleanora if she had thought about her Skills yet.
"So? Have you thought about your Skills? You got a lot of Skill Points on standby." I said to her.
"I-I don't know… There are many options, it is quite hard to decide." She sighed. I had once showed her the options she had a week ago. But she seems to have been thinking for a while and cannot properly decide. I guess I will have to properly help her decide, she's sometimes too indecisive.
"Well, let's check them again through the Grimoire and decide together now." I said.
"Okay!" Eleanora quickly agreed.
