I sighed, leaning back rubbing my shoulder as I relaxed on the couch. My body felt the pain, and I was leaning back in my apartnt, and I saw Tina coming up looking very Pregnant. I felt like doing things to her, but I held myself back at this mont.
I needed so ti to decompress why I lost the fight. It was more than just not attacking at the right ti. My plans remained the sa with Francis. It was direct physical contact with him that I had to pull off in order to attack him. It was coming into his play area and taking his toys essentially. It was a bad choice, and I knew it.
When I retreated to attack from a distance, I was trying to bring him back into my area of expertise.
This didn't work in the end, and changing the environnt only slightly inconvenienced him. Francis was an anti-mage tank where his entire style was built around countering mana with his body. His sense of balance should be incredible, and walking and running on Ice should be sothing that he was used to.
Francis was correct. I took him slightly, slipping on the sudden ice I put under his feet, and took that mont to heal my arm instead of attacking. That was my mistake against him, and it was my only chance to win that I gave up. I wasn't wrong to use mana and wizardry in the environnt.
The problem was I decided to try and affect the entire arena instead of just a small patch where he couldn't see it.
It was sobering, and I took my large pool of mana for granted. Instead, I should look for solutions that minimize the mana I use while Maximizing their effect. I should take it like my stamina in a fight instead of sothing I can abuse. I used a lot of mana and achieved little, whereas before, I used a little mana to achieve a lot.
It was sothing that I would have to consider more in the future. I couldn't help but smile, thinking about Francis. He was a good sparring partner, and he was challenging to win against. I needed to take more ti and prepare myself for the war that I knew was coming. I hadn't made much progress since I beca a B-ranked Void wizard.
It was starting to beco a sore point of mine as I worked in the embassy. I did take so ti to improve, but all I had done was implent better physical ways. This wouldn't help fight other mages or anyone else other than Francis. It would help a little in fights in the future, but it wasn't the only way I wanted to improve.
Things like opening rifts on arrows or other wizard spells to deflect it back at them would be markedly increased battle prowess in war. I needed to learn the applicability of these things and experint to see if I could use certain spells could be used to say deflect or stop spells. Then I would need to practice to see if they could, in fact, work in both small-scale and large-scale battles.
I stopped as Tina joined and looked at with worry. "You are stressing yourself out again," Tina said. "Here, I got sothing to show you in my workshop that I think you will like," Tina said with a mysterious smile. I raised my eyebrows, and when I tried to ask what it was, she covered my mouth with a finger.
"Nope, not telling or answering questions till we are in my workshop," Tina said, silencing .
I followed her watching her as she held her stomach while walking out of the apartnt and taking down one set of stairs. She then took to the nearest door, making smile. Opening the door, I could see tons of random gadgets materials all over the place. I could even see a small warehouse of boxed things filling a corner of the room.
However, it was a ss with tal scraps and filings all over the floor and on workstations.
"When was the last ti you allowed a cleaner in here?" I had to ask as I followed her deeper into her workshop.
I saw her blush with the question, and my eyes narrowed, "I may have forgotten that I told them not to enter the room a couple of weeks ago. They are also swamped cleaning up after your etings..." Her voice trailed off, filled with amusent.
"I have a question, though; I hear that you are having a eting or party with the Incubi for a eting," Tina said, although it sounded more like a statent.
"Yup," I confird as we reached a workstation with a long box on it. "I have changed my plans recently, and I thought about eting them to make it sothing that they would really enjoy, and I can release so stress too," I replied, and I heard Tina sigh.
"You know, If I weren't pregnant at this mont, I would love to be riding that fat futa cock you have now and at that party. Instead, I will show you sothing that will bring you a whole different pleasure." Tina said, turning around looking away from .
"Over the past couple of months, I have been studying Enchantnts and adding them to chanics as we talked about what feels like so long ago," Tina said with a wistful tone.
She turned and looked at now, "I finally ca up with sothing I am sure you will find interesting. I found it on the auction here, and don't be mad, but I might have used so of your funds to acquire it," Tina tossed in, making my eyes narrow before softening. I hadn't spent enough ti with any of my won lately, let alone Tina, and she still made sothing for .
"I found that they were selling an Arcane Crystal for focusing spells. I was instantly intrigued, and it was also contaminated a little though decreasing its value." Tina said with a sigh, "Still, The main contaminants though was Void energy and a couple of other types of mana."
I could feel the excitent in my veins, and I could see how she could win it in the auction. Arcane Crystals were more effective if they were pure. They would focus on spells and increase their effectiveness. That wasn't such a problem, though if you specialized in being a general wizard though using a variety. It also was especially true if you specialized in being a generalist.
In the end, it all ca to how you cast spells. Arcane crystals with one pure energy are exceptionally rarer than pure ones. A pure water one Arcane Crystal could turn a fire spell being released from it into a water spell. This would also increase the power of a water spell imnsely. Impurities, though, didn't help much if you didn't specialize in it, although it could help.
The best way to explain it, though, was it's complicated.
"Well, I initially wanted to buy it for you, but I noticed so Wind and fire impurities in it afterward, making it a slight loss since I think I overpaid for it." I could hear the regret in Tina's voice. "Since it wasn't pure, though, I started to wonder. What if I created so type of mana gun?
Could it cast spells on its own, and what type of projectile could it make?" Tina continued and opened the box in front of .
Inside I could see a slight purple glow emanate from the box. The purple glow started to fill the room, and I could feel the fire and wind elent along with the much stronger Void energy coming off of it. It was a large Arcane Crystal, too, and it was a sha that it that no one knew how to purify it.
I then started to look it over it in more detail, and Tina continued explaining, "So I tried sothing I don't think anyone has ever tried before, at least in our era." Tina continued, "What would happen if I fed mana through it? It is a huge crystal, so it would need a lot of mana. Still, I haven't figured out the mana issue quite yet. Except to have soone fuel it." I could Tina smiling now,
I reached down into the box and realized it was a sham of a gun with the barrel replaced with a large three-foot-long Arcane crystal. It also had enchantnts on a tal butt to the gun with a trigger for feeding it. I then realized what Tina wanted to do.
"So I figured-" Tina began again as I looked it over.
"You want to feed mana directly into the crystal and make it shoot unpurified mana as a projectile into enemies," I said, thinking it over as I beca fascinated with the theory of it. I continued to look it over and noticed there was a silver tal all up the sides on all six sides with enchantnts on each side.
I looked over the enchantnts too and realized that Tina got extrely skilled with enchantnts while I wasn't watching. She wasn't up to yet in them, but she was definitely not at an amateur level.
I looked up to see Tina puffing her cheeks at , annoyed, "You are taking my Thunder away!" Tina exclaid, "I have been working on this ever since then, a week of the auction you held. This is silver enchantnt tal too." Tina said, making whistle, "This will help with enhancing all the mana you put into it.
The only thing in question is if it works!" Tina exclaid, now clearly annoyed I stole so of her thunder explaining it to her.
"I was also looking to surprise you with my enchanter status now. Although I will always be a chanic at heart, I tried hard to make this!" Tina started to tear up, and I put the crystal gun or whatever it was aside, and I hugged her, and I kissed her lips.
"I love it," I responded, aning it. I felt like a kid with a new toy to try out, and I was excited to try it. "Want to go see if it works?" I asked her, my tone excited.
Tears in Tina's eyes disappeared quickly, and her excitent ca back hard. "Hell yes, I do," Tina replied, and I put the thing in the case and started to close it. It was heavy this thing, but I picked it up easily. I brought it down to the basent with Tina following up, and we went into an experint room.
I didn't really have anything for shooting, but I picked one, and we entered inside, and Tina went into the observation room while I went into the testing area and put the box down on the table before opening it. I pulled out the thing and realized I needed to na it sothing other than that gun thingy if it worked. I took a couple of steps back and used mana in my body to hold it up.
The thing was Long, and it was inconvenient to hold.
"Okay," I muttered to myself and turned to look at Tina, who was smiling now with anticipation. I know what I said couldn't be heard, and I started to make my mana flow into the device. The glowing in the crystal started to brighten and the room filled with a deep purple as I aid at the opposite wall. Sothing then told that I might want to be careful.
I started to make an ice wall around while I pumped more pure mana into the crystal, making sure to keep my slight coloration out of it.
When the purple started to get almost too bright, it happened, and the Crystal shot out a purple light mixed with red and cyan aura blasting the opposite wall. Wind and fragnts blasted in the room, surprising as the beam cut into the wall with void energy and blew out with fire and wind, damaging the wall through the enchantnts and I cut my mana off from the crystal startled.
I then heard an alarm in the room indicating the experint did damage to the enchantnt runes. This would take so money to clean up, but it was only in this room and didn't do overall damage to the embassy. I put the device to the side, and I evaporated the ice wall I made on instinct and saw so shards in so parts of the wall fall to the ground.
Tina then stord into the room with a giant smile.
"IT WORKS!" Tina cried out with a huge grin, "My Device worked!" She yelled, filled with happiness as she jumped on , kissing my cheek.
"Let's check the damage," I replied, moving towards it and saw what the beam did to the wall. I couldn't help but be amazed and started to think about my theory from when I was younger. This beam didn't make much sense. That wasn't how Arcane crystals were supposed to work. They were used as channeling from the mind. This didn't use that, and I wanted to experint further when I heard Tina cough.
"So, The Raxa Lens inside is busted." Tina then followed up, looking at with a sad expression. "The first model is a failure," Tina told . "I was hoping to make this device sothing special, but it didn't work," Tina said calmly now.
"What do you an?" I asked her.
"Well, Inside the silver handle under where the trigger is that you press, there is a Raxa lens for making the mana into a beam," Tina explained, and I started to think back when Tina continued, "The mana you pumped in goes in through the trigger into the back near your shoulder through Goldweave and enchantnts then is focused by a Raxa lens hitting another down just before the crystal." Tina looked at with a grin.
"Although it works with surprising effectiveness, the problem is that the Raxa lens cannot withstand a load of Mana needed to shoot or the backlash from it." Tina finished.
"What are Raxa lenses?" I asked after thinking, and Tina looked at with a smirk.
"Well, They are sothing recent in the chanic community, and they are a crystal that focuses mana into beams. They are relatively new and focus Mana into a light. It was sothing recently discovered by a Dwarf. His na is Ricardo Brevard, and he is an Alchemist. It is a part I brought with to the demon lands and needs to be ordered through channels for more.
I brought a batch with , though, on our trip here. The point is that the Arcane Crystal mimics what hits it. Therefore when you focus a spell through it, it increases the power on that form. Here it is focusing light mana. The tainted arcane crystal then focuses on that and stores it until it reaches its critical point with my enchantnt.
It releases it on the opposite side like it usually does with arcane crystals."
I looked at Tina with amazent in my eyes. It was simply genius, and I couldn't believe it hadn't been thought of before. I know that people thought there might be a use to the contaminated Arcane Crystals, and research is still being conducted. That didn't an that it was common and that they were really trying at it.
I couldn't really see many points for it either as I know our tower has a supply of contaminated Crystals; so of our Wizards look at once and while to see if they can get used. But turning mana into sothing else before injecting it into the Crystal to shoot once it reaches a certain level was sothing I didn't think of.
The Arcane Crystal itself could have limited casting uses, but my current staff would be more useful.
On the other hand, this couldn't be mass-produced, but you could co up with so simple long-range shooting weapons that might be useful. I also wondered what the max capacity of the crystal was and how far we could take it. If we had one several feet larger, could we make a siege weapon with it? There was so much to ask, and before I knew It, I picked Tina up and kissed her.
Tina was happy, and I continued to place kisses all over her face and took her lips with a deeper one. "Thank you!" I told her, and Tina deepened the kiss, and her legs tightened on my hips.
"Now," Tina replied, her arms wrapped around my neck with a grin on her face, "I might not be able to take your cock into my pussy, But my ass is hungry for you." Tina finished her reply.
I grinned and held her up, and move aside my loincloth. "Your wish is my command," I responded with a grin matching her own.
