Chapter 186: Developments Of Dnekewy
'Now, about your question. Listen carefully.'
'The magic using Mana is invoked through spells. Those verses are simply for channeling the energy from the surroundings, and to produce the necessary element for the magic. Since imagination can also play a vital role, the wizard must be focused when practicing.
Compared to the conventional methods of wizardry, I do not need to conjure the necessary elements for the spell using my Mana. The elemental souls at present, can produce more than enough energy for even a grade 7 or 8 spell.
And now, all I have to do is to add the proper amount of elements into the Mana to produce the effect of the spell. Imagination plays a great role as they shape the perfect spell, and its effect.
When I pulled off Teleportation, I channeled about 300 Mana into the atmosphere and added a lot of Space elements into it. Since I am teleporting, I imagined the position of the arrival, and picturised a temporary channel through which I am getting transported here. And It worked.
When I casted Poison Pinch, that was the combination of Poison and Wind. The poison was produced in small pebble sizes, and a jet of wind carried it to the target. Time was also activated to make it approach faster. Using more wind would scatter the pebble to fine drops and disperse it.
Thus, my magic is a coordination between focus, imagination and elements. And yes, Mana is essential to do the trick. Since elemental souls are completely formed, the elements need some kind of energy to contain it when leaving the soul, or the soul will have to materialise itself.'
[That..]
D was confused as to what to say. Logically, Lee was right. But the focus and detailed imagination it needed was no simpler thing. A slight misfire or change in the proportion of elements, and the spell is a failure.
The poison pebble should have a specific weight in order for the wind jet to carry it away. When applying the Time element to speed up, it must be precisely adjusted when you are trying to hit a moving target.
[Makes sense.]
Lee scanned the inn and found no other attempts to intrude. So, he created a spatial tear and his companions exited the System Space.
"Long time no see."
Gauthama embraced Lee and said. Mia, Tera, Ruella, An and his familiar beasts were also present behind him. Fero ran at him and rubbed its head to his legs. Perrafin was unusually cool, and it neared Lee after Fero showed it's affection.
Standing up, Lee skimmed his eyes over the face of his wife and sisters. Without standing there staring at faces, he led them inside and asked about the System Space.
"To be honest, it is a good place to be yourself and meditate. I find the place to my liking. If possible, I would stay put in that space." (Gauthama)
Following Buddha, the women also expressed their liking to the habitable space. They also added their suggestions to improvise it, and asked to bring in more medicinal and decorative flora.
Lee nodded at their words, and enquired about the Dnekewy and Hudson. He was surprised to hear that D had constructed a house for them in the System Space. An urge to jump inside and see the house for himself was suppressed, as Lee further asked about them.
"Dnekewy is knowledged in cultivation and physical training. He gives training to An, Mia and Tera there. Hudson is a wizard, so he teaches me how to control my powers."
Ruella gave her honest opinion, and the voices of Tera and Mia followed them. They described their martial arts training with great enthusiasm, as they came to know about the fact that Dnekewy is the top-most cultivator in the whole planet.
For D, who have lived for millennia, all weapons were easy to wield. The twin hatchets and katana displayed marvelous fluency when in the hands of the Dimension Sovereign. After exhibiting his skills, he showed how it is done, and corrected the existing moves of both. D found the session entertaining, as the only thing he had ever to do till now was to sleep, or talk.
Hudson was also relieved to acquire a disciple. It's been so many years he has practised his skills. Though was a little rusty, he picked up his memory and fluency of actions. Ruella watched all of his actions closely and learned many things from the gestures and postures at each moment.
=====
1 P.M.
32655 Essence harvested.
=====
Lee demonstrated his peak affinity to the elements. Their eyes were round and wide with surprise, as he manifested miniature versions of the elements in his palm. Though they looked adorable, the fire almost burned Mia's finger, the ice froze Ruella's skin, the lightning gave Tera a mild shock and An felt intense wind jets coming at her from the miniature Wind element soul.
Lee Shen was able to know many things about the System Space. From their accounts, he became aware that D has also established an open air diner setup, along with a garden of trees and plants. They were isolated from all kinds of animals, and from them, the herbivores and carnivores were sorted out and isolated, again.
Unknown to Lee, the Essence from his reserve was being used to produce food and other consumables. Whenever Hudson or anybody went and brought a cup of coffee from the diner, the receptionist, AKA, D would deduct Essence as its cost. From the accounts of women, Lee was still thinking that it is all produced cost-free!
"Gauthama, what do you think about taking the inn into the space?"
Gauthama smiled at the question, and took a pause before answering.
"Let the inn be. We can transfer the control to the Cultivator's Guild and they would run the inn and maintain it well. If they are not ready to take its ownership, I would be very glad to give it to Niqom and Nyra. At least they will have a decent place to sleep."
Lee remembered the situation of the shop across the street. He nodded as his unconscious mind approved the latter option.
