Yep, dont worry about it.
Why wouldnt I be?
Well, as long as nobody pulls any crap then you shouldnt expect any problems. I have already been paid after all.
With the day to awaken what few mages had managed to get to the eighth levels of their magics finally there, he already knew hed be helping just over two hundred people, netting him close to forty extra points of mana thanks to his agreent with the gods which he intended to make good on, even if he found himself surprised to have so many more to do.
Well, what can I say, Im happy to inspire people to get more mana.
No, but its a fair trade-off. Hell, its not even a fair trade-off, I was crazy generous with this deal. Im getting a point of mana for every six people I help, anwhile, theyre awakening their magics with all of the other bonuses that co with it. Every god that thinks Im not generous is a factually incorrect asshole and you can quote on that.
Fine, fine, its not like theres a rush.
Walking through his mini-gate to the main network and to Allfaith from there, Ben went to the sa place hed been the last ti hed done it, going to the soul mage Elvats ho on the surface and finding the expected faces already there.
He knew the two soul mages would be around, sa as the last ti, and everyone else hed co to expect, with Thera there too, practicing with Uliel and Vasta at the side as she had been for months at that point, sparing him a smile while she worked on a spell as he greeted them all.
Sup guys, everyone ready for the end of the world?
Were being positive about it Ben, Amy sighed, with Jake sharing Bens personal favourite strategy.
Im just not going to think about it till day of. This is officially the last month I can enjoy without stressing.
Okay, thats the spirit.
With a month until the invasion points opened, everyone was going to approach it in their own ways and it was easy enough to see discomfort creeping back up in random faces on the streets, even if Ben felt like he was seeing far too much optimism too. Things had gone too well during the first wave after all. It had raised so people's faith for how things would continue to go to an unreasonable degree, sothing he didnt feel at all himself.
Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.
Okay, Jakes right, not thinking about it.
Alright then, in that case, dont mind if I borrow a few bodies before we start, He told them all as he shifted a bit closer to Uliel and Vasta, making copies of both of their powerful and all-encompassing magics on new rings.
While in general, he would typically prefer the specialized versions to claim for his use since they would be more powerful in general while he could make up for how focused theyd be, he wanted to be prepared for what was going to co and having both options at the highest available level was going to do it for him.
Especially since it looks like Im not going to be finding anyone with so fifth and sixth leveled-magics at their second tier. God, I get awakened skills are supposed to be hard to level but how can the world not have any?
Myriad sighed in his head.
Excuse you, I had to work my butt off to get to this point.
Hmm, not a fan of hearing that little fact. Not one contender for a magic getting to the third tier other than them?
Okay, also not thinking about that. No more distracting with bad news, I still have things to do.
Not wanting to spare what his god had to say any more thought, Ben went over to Jake next, taking his friends hand and giving him a bright smile.
Hey buddy.
Ben, my guy? You look a little scary right now man.
I just want to borrow your mind and soul for a couple minutes.
That got a grimace as Jake understood where this was going.
Man, shoving mana into like that really hurts, you know?
I can guarantee it hurts you less than it hurts . Not only do I regulate the amount I give you but you have a fundantally higher capacity than I do. Anyway, I just want to make a certain magic material and youre the only person I know with the right affinities for it. Please? Pretty please?
He did his best to look his most innocent and hopeful, getting the response he wanted for his efforts.
Alright, if its just the one
Youre the best! Thera, mind if I borrow you for a minute?
Sure, lets make it quick then.
She ca over and placed a hand on his back as he did the sa to Jake, rging his mind into the others to create what he so badly wanted.
While his prior visit to see all of the new magic materials had been for the purposes of making Inux his body, Ben still needed to think on the ones hed seen and how they might be incorporated into his future designs, as well as wait for more research to be done on the various unknown ones, but that didnt an he didnt want to play with anything after all that, with the target of his attention being the material that seed to condense the fabric of reality around it, as well as that condensate itself.
It had proven to be a fantastic enchanting material, and while so of its other properties would limit its uses, he still very much intended to see what he could do with such a thing, with the only thing that ant being that hed need more. A lot more.
As Ben directed Jake to spend all of the mana being shoved into him, what ca from that effort was a cubic foot of the substance, plenty for him to do his own tests and experints to see its potential and limits later. For the ti being, having gotten all that he wanted he shoved it into his bag before thinking out loud.
Lets see, if Im supposed to be naming all of these things then I guess this is getting called voidstone. It condenses the void of space around it, that should be good enough, right?
No one answered his musings but he was happy enough with it, and with everything he wanted to do beforehand finally done he moved on to chatting a bit with his friends before the door opened, letting in the first of those hed be awakening.
