2495 Creation Magic (Part 1)
"Im not complaining Lith playfully ruffled her hair. I happy to have you back, Solus. I missed you a lot. "
"You don't have to say that every day but it's much appreciated. She blushed a bit. 'I missed you more!"
Lith returned to the center of the room, checking from the control panel that the tower's energy reserves were replenished.
The Workshop's ability to conjure the necessary amounts of Davross and powerful materials for the experiments of two mages at the same time took a huge toll on its power core.
On top of that, in its incomplete state the tower couldn't process the entire flow of world energy from the mana geyser, and part of the available energy was always drained to fuel the other floors and give Solus her human. body.
Lith had no idea of what would happen if the tower were to run out of power and no desire to find out. From the pocket dimension collapsing on itself and destroying everything stored inside to Solus going back to being a voice in his head, there were plenty of nightmare scenarios to choose from.
"There's only so long until Kami comes back from work. I'm going to take another shot. Since you are resting Solus, please take a good look with the Eyes and tell me if you understand what I'm doing wrong
While Balkor was forced to study Creation Magic from the theoretical standpoint and practice it only when he believed to have made a breakthrough to not waste the priceless materials Salaark awarded him for his services, Lith cheated as usual.
Practicing Creation Magic on stone and even silver was Just a very mana expensive way to destroy them. The worst part about learning Creation Magic was that only someone who had already mastered it could use regular materials to fuel its spells.
During the last month, Lith and Solus had destroyed hundreds of kilos of Davross, countless precious white mana crystals, and a forest's worth of Dryad's gift but they could afford it since they were just mere copies created by the tower.
Even a Guardian would have cried blood for such a waste. On top of that, not even one of Mogar's Chosen would have ever learned the basics of Creation Magic since Salaark used cloaking spells to protect her secrets from the likes of Dragon Eyes.
Only in front of those with which she was willing to share her knowledge did she use Creation Magic in its pure form, even simplifying it for teaching purposes.
At the level Lith and Solus currently were, they could shape and Forgemaster an artifact but they had yet to understand how to remove the imprint and enchantments.
Darkness magic weakened the bonds in the metal, allowing the light element to rearrange them in the desired shape, working respectively as a crucible and a mold. Then, came the Forgemastering part.
Even a tier one Creation Magic spell required to weave an array encompassing the Forgemastering circles required to draw in the world energy and the enchantments needed to craft the various pseudo cores.
At the same time, the mage had to factor in and adjust the output for the amplification effect of magic metals. Useless to say, Davross had the best durability and could withstand being manhandled by amateurs but it also had the greatest amplification effect.
