[Spell Weaving Chalice]

->Special Magic Item

->Rank: Bronze

->Effect: Infuse spell formation in runes inside the chalice and shake it for five seconds to create a new spell combined with the spell runes.

->Note: Can only infuse tier-2 magic spell or lower in the runes. You can carve spell formation in the air and then bring a rune near it so that the rune will automatically absorb that spell formation and infuse it within itself.

“There are three runes inside the chalice,” Zevien said as he took out three tiny runes.

“Nice, then we’ll learn Nether Touch and Mist Blow Punch later. But since we can combine three magic spells, then might as well learn another tier-2 spell,” Vernisia said before she took out the scroll from the treasure chest. “Let’s see what this spell is.”

She opened the scroll.

“It’s good. We’ll learn and add this one with Nether Touch and Mist Blow Punch,” Zevien nodded after looking at the scroll.

[Decay Poison Mist]

->Tier-2 magic spell

->Effect: Releases poison mist from your hands that can decay anyone touched by it. It can also weaken other spells by decaying their mana, so can be used as a pre-defensive spell.

…

Zevien and Vernisia left the dungeon through the exit portal after taking the things from the golden treasure chest.

After coming out, they stayed in the inn and tried to learn the spell intent of Decay Poison Mist.

After an hour, they started feeling the pressure of leaving, but they held on as long as they could.

Four hours, thirteen minutes…

Four hours, fifteen minutes…

Four hours, seventeen minutes…

Finally, at the fourth hour’s twentieth minute, Vernisia disappeared.

Zevien held on, but he also disappeared a minute later.

Both of them appeared back in their bedroom and continued comprehending the spell intent of Decay Poison Mist.

After two hours, they finished learning it and opened their eyes.

“Let’s go and buy the Mist Blow Punch spell. After learning its spell intent, we can carve all three spells’ formation in the air and let the runes absorb them. No need to weave these spells into our magic core,” Vernisia said.

“Yep. And I feel it will probably result in a powerful tier-3 spell. It will take more space in our magic core if we learn a tier-3 spell right now, but it should be worth it,” Zevien smiled.

*Ding…*

Zevien suddenly got a message, and when he checked his Digi-watch, he was surprised, “so many messages from Dan.”

“What is it?” Vernisia asked curiously as she went behind Zevien and hugged him by locking her arms around his neck and arching her head to read the message from his Digi-watch with him.

“Oh, so they went to that floating mountain?” Zevien raised his eyebrows. “The headmaster took all the students there.”

“We don’t need to go there because we are already spirit bound,” Vernisia smiled. “We’ll just continue our progress here and see what kind of spell that magical chalice can create.”

“Yep. Let’s go and buy the Mist Blow spell. We should be able to get it in the library of this academy. I heard it has almost all spells recorded to date,” Zevien said with keen eyes.

“But they don’t give spells for free, right?”

“Yep. Probably needs Gaia credits and those so-called Skyward Merits we heard about in the market.”

“Wait, check your magic power, hahaha. Almost forgot about it,” Vernisia said with a chuckle. “I want to see how much magic power you got in four hours and twenty-one minutes.”

“It’s usually 0.5 magic power per minute after becoming 5th class magician,” Zevien said before checking his status by infusing mana in Digi-watch.

-Magic power: 633

“It’s an increment of 131,” Vernisia said while grinning. “Not bad. I can’t wait to enter my labyrinth as well. Let’s combine the spell, and then it’s my turn.”

…

After leaving their hill, they went to the library and bought the tier-2 magic spell, Mist Blow Punch. Since they had a golden badge, which meant they were Elite-abode students, they got a 20% discount.

They spent another 3 hours learning the spell concept of Mist Blow Punch and then started practicing creating their spell formation.

Afterward, they went to their backyard. Zevien focused on creating the spell formation of Nether Touch while Vernisia focused on creating the spell formation of Decay Poison Mist. Whoever finished their task first would start creating the spell formation of [Mist Blow Punch].

So it was also like a competition between them.

“By the way, we also have to use the spell after creating their spell formation. If the spell isn’t executed properly, it doesn’t count,” Vernisia said.

“Good,” Zevien nodded.

Both of them were creating spell formations with absolute focus.

Time passed as the sun started setting. After four hours, Zevien finished his spell formation first and cast the spell.

The magic circle disappeared as Zevien cast the spell. His hands became dark purple with a creepy aura. He went to a nearby tree and touched a branch with his hand.

*Siiii….*

The branch started rotting as Zevien’s hand touched it.

“Alright, I win,” Zevien turned around to look at Vernisia but saw that she was in absolute focus.

A few seconds later, she finished the last pattern and smiled. “I am also done.”

She cast the spell and released the mist from her hands as it spread towards the tree. The tree started decaying with a foul smell and oozed out green poison. This spell was a poison-type spell, while the Nether Touch was a direct effecting spell that acted on one point that was touched by hand.

Decay Poison Mist decays mana in the spell while Nether Touch can break down the spell itself, so it’s used to break defense. Both have their own merits, so once combined, they can indeed be deadly.

“Let’s create the spell formation of Mist Blow Punch together. Since we both understood its spell intent, we should be able to manage it,” Vernisia said with shining eyes. “If we can achieve perfect harmony between us, then it will help us in many things.”

Zevien nodded with a smile as he also felt that it was a good idea. “Alright, let’s do it!”
