Chapter 30 Forming Mana Core (3)

Chapter 30 Forming Mana Core (3)

When he came back to his room, Lilly was awake and it seemed that she had just taken a bath. Her hair flowing black hair was wet and her fresh fragrance still lingered in the air. She wore her black and white maid dress. But even that couldn't hide her beauty. For a sec Max wanted to jump on her but he restrained himself.

He went to her and after giving a kiss on her red lips he said "I'm going to try to form my mana core. So don't disturb me for the time being and if someone comes then tell them that I'm busy right now okay."

"Mhm okay, young- Okay." Lilly nodded and smiled sweetly and was about to address him as young master when she remembered that he wanted her not to call him that when they were alone.

Max smiled and sat down on the bed. He then opened the scroll and placed it in front of him.

On top of the scroll "MANA CORE FORMATION" was written in very eye-catching bold words.

Max started reading the instructions on the scroll 'To form your mana core you have to move your mana toward the navel in your torso where dantian is located. You have to purify and compress it several times using the method below to ensure the safe formation of a good mana core...'

He then read the method to form mana core although it was quite complicated and had many steps involved, he memorised it just after reading it two times due to his high intelligence points.

He then followed the instructions written in the scroll and started to control his mana and direct it toward his navel area. After he had gathered enough mana in his dantian he started to compress it. After several times of compression, Mana in his dantian occupied a lot less space was purer than before as impurities were extracted and expelled.

Then he directed more of his mana to go into his dantian and compressed it again and again. He did this until his mana was entirely spent and his dantian was now filled with incomparably pure mana which was now in between mist and liquid-like state.

He then took a deep breath and focused all his mental power in his dantian and started to compress and move according to the instructions. This was the final and most difficult part of the process.

After ten minutes, he started to sweat. Small beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. After thirty minutes his clothes were soaked in sweat. His face was contorted as if he was in pain. His breathing intensified as if he was doing some rigorous task.

Lilly who was watching him silently, sitting on the sofa grew anxious to see him sweat this much and his handsome face contort in pain. Her heart felt as if it was struck with some sharp needle.

'What is he doing that is causing him so much pain?' She thought and unconsciously stood up but when she remembered his order from before, she sat down again with a bitter and pained expression on her face.

She didn't want to disobey him fearing that he would not like it but at the same time, she couldn't see him suffering like this.

After ten more minutes, his expression didn't change and become even more contorted. She couldn't help and walked towards him slowly so as not to make any sound.

She took out her handkerchief and gently wiped his forehead and face. She then looked at him to see if he was disturbed but fortunately, he was too focused so he didn't notice. ?

While Lilly wiped his sweat, her gaze landed on the scroll in front of him.

'Mana core formation. So young master is forming his mana core. Doesn't that mean he is now a two-star mage?' She thought. She was surprised but not too surprised. She had already seen him miraculously becoming strong and the day before yesterday when he again showed his strength she was surprised to see his strength increase once again.

'How did young master become so strong?' She wondered and suddenly a thought crossed her mind which made her blush.

...

After ten more minutes, his expression became normal and his breathing also become steady. Lilly sighed a sigh of relief.

When Max opened his eyes, he had a smile on his face. He then noticed Lilly standing by his bedside with a handkerchief in her hand.

He quickly understood what she had been doing after realising that his face and forehead didn't have any sweat but the rest of his body was completely wet in sweat.

"Thank you Lilly!" He said with a charming smile on his face. Although he knew that she loved him, he was very touched when he saw that she cared for him a lot. In his previous life, he couldn't have imagined that he would get a woman who loved and cared for him.

On earth, relationships are very fragile and most of the time Man and Woman don't love each other but still form a romantic relationship. They just need each other for their needs. Love and Care as Lilly has for him, It is very rare to be found.

Lilly stared at his beautiful smile in a daze. She even forget to ask if he was okay. When she realised what she was doing, her face turned red like a tomato.

"It's my d-duty young master." She hurriedly said.

Max outstretched his right hand and grabbed her thin waist and pulled her into his embrace.
