Chapter 194 Worry?

Clenching his fists, Vicente felt the difference between level 1 of the Acolyte stage and his previous level.

The feeling he had now was so incredible that he practically didn't feel human anymore!

The difference between what he had felt before becoming a magician and after the Awakening was much stronger than now, considering the difference in the dimensions of that breakthrough. But in terms of the amount of mana under his control, Vicente now had about 20 times more mana than what he had gained from awakening his powers weeks ago.

In addition to a much greater amount of mana at his disposal, he felt as if something was missing and he could get much stronger in no time.

This was the feeling of a new 'space' opening up in his being for him to add new Magic Pentagrams to his essence.

Vicente had two Magic Gems, so he felt two new spaces available!

However, this was not as good as one might imagine. Not knowing how his powers related to his second gem, Vicente had no idea what kind of Magic Pentagram he should absorb for his second soul.

That was a problem!

He quickly realized this after his initial euphoria caused by his breakthrough.

Noticing two empty 'spaces' in himself, he became more serious and considered his situation. 'If I don't absorb a pentagram for this other gem, doesn't that mean I'll be left with part of my cultivation unstable?'

Gulp!

Thinking about what might happen if his powers continued to grow without him having the necessary stability, Vicente felt uncertain and fearful about the future.

If the mana in his body remained unstable, he could even explode!

'Shit! I had ignored that!' He thought as he looked at the ground, trying to find an answer to his situation.

Should he try to absorb just the next pentagram of his first Magic Gem? Or perhaps he should take a chance and absorb two pentagrams, the second for his gem that he didn't even know what was like.

Previously, Vice had had the feeling that he shouldn't use his second gem or the pentagram associated with it. Since his Awakening, he had never tried to understand this part of himself for fear of what might happen.

A body and soul had to have strong characteristics to withstand the powers of a Magic Pentagram. Precisely for this reason, the level of pentagrams one absorbed had to be in line with their characteristics to not destroy their foundations.

But Vicente had a yellow Magic Pentagram associated with his second gem!

This was a level of pentagram that normally only a Mage's body could withstand.

And as much as this pentagram was already associated with him, a Magic Pentagram was not something one could use without being worn down by it. There was a cost to the body of the magician who used their pentagrams.

The first risk of a pentagram was associated with the moment of its absorption when it could even destroy the body and soul of the one who tried to absorb it. However, after absorption, this essence caused physical and mental damage after each use.

If one wasn't strong enough, a pentagram could even kill them!

But if one was powerful enough, its benefits outweighed its harms, and as one grew stronger, the damage caused by the constant use of pentagrams could be reversed and ignored.

Aware of this, Vicente didn't want to use this Yellow Magic Pentagram without having confidence in himself first, so he had never tested this part of himself.

But now he was in a dilemma.

'I need to find a good scholar!' He thought of the only possibility in front of him.

Scholars didn't just develop spells and special things important to the magic world. They were the ones who knew the most about the rules of magic, how one could manipulate them to one's advantage, but also about Magic Pentagrams and Gems.

If anyone could help Vicente understand his situation, it would be some well-ranked scholar. Apart from someone like that, he was unlikely to find any good advice in Polaris Realm unless he met a magician of the highest level.

But it was easier to find scholars than top-level magicians.

'I can't tell anyone about my peculiarities, but I can learn more about Magic Gems and Pentagrams.' He thought to himself.

'I intend to go to Alpine Woodpecker Forest to hunt pentagrams. I'll take advantage of the fact that this area is close to Ironcrest to look for scholars in that city.'

Ironcrest was the second-largest city in the province, the second-best place in the area for Vicente to look for scholars who could answer his questions.

As for Alpine Woodpecker Forest, after days of studying the book he had obtained when stealing Defiant Tyranny, Vicente had concluded that the area had a good chance of being valuable to him.

Ironcrest was a city with the best blacksmiths in the province. As Alpine Woodpecker Forest was nearby, perhaps this would be an interesting forest area for blacksmiths like him.

Pentagrams had to be compatible with the powers of the magicians who absorbed them. Thus, looking for pentagrams in that area could be suitable for Vicente, so he wanted to go there.

Thinking of combining the useful with the pleasant, he couldn't help but consider a brief visit to Ironcrest to find a way to solve this problem.

Deciding to do so, he sighed, feeling there was nothing more he could do about it for the time being. He could only continue his plans until he left in search of the pentagram hunt and left the matter for when he went to Ironcrest.

"Now I have to focus on Millfall. I have to make sure my group has stability during my absence." He muttered as he got dressed, preparing to leave that training site.

When Vicente opened the door of the place that had been under the observation of the men on that estate for several hours, those in front of the entrance to the training room at that moment couldn't help but look at him differently.

But sensing Vicente's power at a new level, those Acolytes there soon formed smiles on their faces, seeing that their leader had made an important breakthrough.

"Boss, congratulations on reaching level 1!" The two of them ran up to him, congratulating him as they felt their hearts beating harder in their chests.

"Hmm, I worried you, didn't I? I needed a bit more mana than I thought I would, and it took me longer to advance... Anyway, luckily, I made it before I was exhausted." He laughed as he said this to his men while walking up to the residence's second floor.

"Now that I'm at level 1, get ready. I intend to set off on the hunt for Magical Pentagrams in a week at most." He said confidently, making those men even more excited, as they still hadn't absorbed their new pentagrams.
