Alexis Blumin wasn’t stupid. He clearly knew that Ember wouldn’t be as affected by the lava. Nevertheless, he still attacked her with it.
The reason? Well, he was known for his ability to slow down his enemies.
“O’ Tellus, guide of life, power of creation, the source of power, the source of wisdom, we have gained everything from you, now I will return it, Earth’s Vengeance!”
That was right. Alexis took this chance to cast his Earth Mage spell.
As for what Ember did, she flapped her phoenix wings and lted the stones before blowing them away with the powerful gusts of winds her wings created. It was then that the volcano shot her with thick and heavy lava.
“Only Master can do that to !” Ember shouted to boost her own morale.
She wrapped her red phoenix wings around her body. They then turned blazing hot. The lava hit her, but it vaporized the instant it touched her wings.
*Boom!*
The molten rocks vaporized into gas. If it was possible to lt solid rocks, it was a given. Turning solid rocks into gas may not seem possible, but it was possible.
This vaporization created protection around Ember. It was similar to the Leidenfrost effect, where boiling water would skid around a hot pan. In comparison, the hot lava skid around her phoenix wings.
After the lava subsided, the reverse teor gravitated towards her. It accelerated quickly. She would be crushed under its enormous weight if she wasn’t fast enough.
“I’m a Phoenix!” Ember shouted.
Her body quickly lted, and she turned into a phoenix. She wasn’t big but rather small. She was only about 2 feet in height, as big as an eagle.
The Phoenix Ember flapped her wings and agilely avoided the leftover stones, lava, and the enormous reverse teor. Her speed was insane as she turned into a blur.
Alexis’ face was calm as he stared at Ember. He knew she dodged, but it was already too late. He had already cast an Earth Mage spell.
Without her casting her own Earth Mage spell, she would die. And she didn’t have enough ti to cast her own, so Alexis was confident in his victory.
A large opening opened underneath Ember. She looked down and suddenly lost control of her flight.
“Ahhhhh!” Ember scread.
The hole emitted massive amounts of gravity. It sucked her in as if the earth wanted to eat her.
…Back to Lawrend before Ember and Alexis fought.
Lawrend closed his eyes and T-posed. His whole body radiated with mana. All of his magic knowledge flashed before his eyes. The pathways his mana took changed drastically. His body sucked in more mana.
As a result, his body beca able to hold more mana. And not only that, his strength increased by several folds.
*Whoosh*
All of the Lightning Mana in the surroundings disappeared as if they weren’t there in the first place. It was different for the Fire Mana. Lawrend took control and created a vortex that sucked fire mana everywhere except Ember’s location.
He doesn’t want her to lose the ability to cast her spell. It would quickly kill her because a great deal of the power behind spells was from the environntal mana around them.
The already pure mana inside Lawrend’s body suddenly changed in appearance. Instead of having a thick color, it turned translucent.
“Woah…”
Lawrend was surprised at the sudden change. He hadn’t seen mana in this appearance before. Even inside the Heaven Mages he had t before.
These Lightning Mana he just absorbed changed color from purple to golden yellow. It was a srizing transformation.
“I see.”
Lawrend understood his magic more after watching that transformation. He could observe this transformation before, but it was different this ti. Now, he could sense it several tis better.
“The laws of the two worlds complent each other. These laws naturally desire to beco whole again. So even without the other laws, they could still transform as long as there was enough mana…” Lawrend muttered to himself.
His mind was running at max capacity. His soul was still at the True Mage level, but he could feel his mind beco even clearer than before. That ant that his intelligence was increasing.
“Amazing. And I’m still not a Heaven Mage,” Lawrend muttered.
The phenonon around him slowly started to die down. He was still the sa Lawrend, but there was sothing different about him.
They say that Earth Mages had the power to change the world, and a Heaven Mage had the power to control the world.
Lawrend was exuding a charm that seed to ta the world. He would neither change the world nor control it. Rather, he would ta it like a maid.
It was Lawrend’s goal and beca the foundation for his magic. It was so great that he overturned the usual effect.
“Ahhhhh!” Ember scread.
Lawrend squinted his eyes.
He noticed the way the space around Ember was compressed using his elental eyes.
“Child’s play,” Lawrend chuckled.
He stretched his palm forward and grasped at Ember. He took control of the space around her and pulled her towards him.
The powerful gravity created by Alexis’ spell easily resisted Lawrend’s space magic. It was natural because his Space Magic was only at the True Mage level. It might be possible if it was at the sa level, but not at the mont.
“Hmph.” Lawrend snorted.
Lawrend wasn’t willing to let it go just like that.
He stopped trying to forcefully pull Ember. Instead, he focused his eyes on the bent space around Ember. He used his high intelligence and understanding of space magic. He also coupled his understanding of the Theory of General Relativity.
“Weird… There are so discrepancies.”
Lawrend quickly noticed so inaccuracies in the Theory of General Relativity.
‘This is how far it goes,’ Lawrend thought.
The Theory of General Relativity would still fail in so cases. This was one of those cases. It was good enough, but not good enough. This was also the reason why the physicists in his previous world would always chase a Theory of Everything.
Lawrend didn’t feel that attached to Einstein’s theory. He stopped using it and brute forced the bent space using his understanding of magic.
