Chapter 1048: The Limit
"Haah..."
Letting out a long exhale, Valyr slowly opened his eyes sometime after feeling he'd absorbed all of the Mystic Energy in the surroundings.
Giving his eyes the time it needed to acclimate to the light once more, it was only after a while did he stand up before looking at Marcus to ask him a question.UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m
"How much time has passed since I started absorbing Mystic Energy?"
"Hmm..." Glancing at the sky above them, the man made a few gestures with his hands before looking back at Valyr with a calm expression. "Like four hours or so."
"Really?" Valyr's eyes slightly widened in surprise, feeling like he'd been immersed in that state for far longer than four hours. "It felt like half a day passed to me."
"That's what usually happens when you're absorbing Mystic Energy," said Mystia in response to Valyr's words, prompting the latter to look in her direction. "I'm sure you've felt a sense of relief while absorbing Mystic Energy."
Nodding in response to her words, Valyr noticed that she was in the midst of forming a complex construct of some sort using pure Mystic Energy.
Though he was curious as to what she was doing, the young man decided to remain silent, even though Mystia had just shown that she had the capability to multi-task.
"Phew..." Surprisingly, the silence Valyr gave her was all she needed to finally complete the construct she was making, letting out a wide sigh of relief as she pushed the construct towards her body.
Watching as the construct of Mystic Energy was slowly being absorbed by her body, Valyr's mouth turned slightly agape as Mystia looked back at him with a slight smile. "So, how much Mystic Energy did you gain?"
In response to the question, Valyr went ahead and opened up his status screen, only to be pleasantly surprised by the fact that his Mystic Energy was only a few dozen points away from reaching 2,000.
"...Alright." Opening her eyes, Mystia let out a faint sigh of relief as she gathered her thoughts.
Shifting her gaze towards the two, she soon focused her attention towards Valyr before opening her mouth. "Since you now have an idea of how the Mystic Plane works, I suppose it's time for you to learn how to use Mystic Energy properly."
Hearing those words, Valyr looked back at her in slight confusion. "For what reason, though? Isn't it just using Mystic Energy on a skill?"
"If you plan on limiting yourself, then sure. You can go ahead and do that," replied Mystia, releasing a bit of her Mystic Energy into the surroundings. "However, recall the nature of Mystic Energy and compare it to the Shadow Energy you've encountered."
"Shadow Energy leans towards destruction..." muttered the young man to himself, only to then realize what Mystia was trying to say. "While Mystic Energy leans towards creation." "Creation. That is the keyword in using Mystic Energy properly." As those words left Mystia's mouth, she began to manipulate the Mystic Energy into various forms.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
At first, Mystia transformed the Mystic Energy she released into numerous shields that covered almost every part of her body.
Then, not long after, she transformed the Mystic Energy into a wall that both looked and felt impenetrable.
After that, she transformed the Mystic Energy into a field that gradually rejuvenated one's health, causing the young man to feel like he'd gained more energy out of nowhere.
"You only need to remember two things when using Mystic Energy." Feeling like she'd shown Valyr what Mystic Energy was more than capable of, Mystia recalled the energy back as she began to give the young man an explanation.
"The world is your canvas, and the sky is the limit."
"As long as you keep those in mind, then the Mystic Energy will bring your thoughts to
reality."
