There was no manual to follow for this but Caius felt he was on the right track.
He had been at it since last week.
First, he had gone to Lea Gilligan and given her the Arcane Circle as well and when he returned two days later, she had made use of it enough that drinking her Evolutionary-charged blood had added significantly to his Evolution Meter.
On that note, there was still a long way to go. The requirement for the Fifth Circle from the Fourth Circle was at least three times more than the requirement of getting to the Fourth Circle from the Third.
Even worse, Caius hadn't done all that by himself.
The original Caius had gotten the ball rolling in advancement before tragedy struck so Caius had been benefiting from that leg-up which he couldn't count on now. His advancement going forward was all on him and him alone.
