Noah Orion's POV
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!", I screamed as I woke up from the nightmare.
I was sweating profusely.
My heartbeat was beating fast.
I then tried to calm myself down.
"Calm down! Calm down!"
"Fuck! I hate it. At least in my previous life I didn't need to sleep.", I said frustratingly.
I then saw the word on the sky again.
[Congratulations! For defeating Lucious Malevolent- The spellcaster of the RED tower]
[You have gained a SS-rank mana stone.]
[You have unlocked more pages of the great sorcerer.]
[Your wounds are being healed.]
[You only have now 27 days to defeat
Rafael Salvatore -The knight general of the cathedral
Dominic Stormfist- The chef of the cathedral]
[Best of luck].
"I got a SS-rank mana stone?", I asked as I then suddenly appearing in my hand.
"WOOSH!"
"Wow!", I was surprised as a green gem appeared in my hand.
"Nice!", I said as I had a devilish grin on my face.
'If I can sell it, I can make so much money.', I thought.
Suddenly, words appeared again in the sky.
[You cannot sell it.]
"Damn it.", I said as I got frustrated.
'How did it know?', I thought.
"Alright! Let me see what else I got.", I said as I looked through the pages of the biography of the Lee Sunghoon.
"Wow.", I was surprised.
[You have unlocked the right to understand my custom spells.]
It then suddenly became a compact diary.
[3rd circle spell
4th circle spell
5th circle spell
6th circle spell
7th circle spell
….]
"Damn this is convenient", I said as I marvel it.
"Nice.", I then looked towards the spellcaster.
Nothing of him was left other than a burnt stone and the wand.
"Can I sell it?", I thought as I got a brilliant idea.
'Maybe I can also do it.', I thought.
I then put the burnt sword in the storage and put Qi on my hand.
The wand was a Jet black with red stone as an amplifier.
"Let me see if I can fit it in Jaguar.", I said.
I then broke red gem and pulled the diary.
[Introduction to Crafting.]
I then followed the instruction.
I then added Sharpness and Enchant and Engraving.
I then started to cut through the stone and cut it and engrave multiple speel in the stone.
After continuously doing it for a long time.
"Alright!", I said.
"Ok", it was a very important time.
"Mana diamond", I said as then the mana diamond started to emit a bright red light.
"Nice. This is very good.", I said in excitement.
I then took Jaguar and then started to carve out one of the eyes.
"Here, there, careful.", I said as I carefully carved out the eye.
"Alright!", I said as I then bought the small mana diamond.
As I then bought it closer, they immediately collided and the Jaguar's eye was now looked like a red eye.
'Nice', I thought.
I then used the appraisal paper and the words appeared.
Jaguar (S-rank)– A conduit cane with a mana stone as his right eye. Multi-cast (Can help you cast two or more spells according to your level) Bonding (It can be bond with a weapon to transform it). Mana Stone (Engraved with 1st and 2nd circle spell).Efficiency (It increases the mana efficiency by 50%)Casting Speed (Increases the casting speed by 50%)
"Good, very good", I was very happy with the product.
"Now time to go to the next circle.", I said but before that I first stabilize my second circle and then started to absorb the mana from the SS-rank mana stone.
After meditating and colleting the mana from the mana stone, I felt a qualitative change and a quantitively change. My body was feeling like it was now flowing in water and I felt a sudden relive in my lungs.
My meridians are now merging and making an ecosystem with the magic present in my body.
Nourishing and nurturing.
Suddenly a wave of energy filled my body.
"Ha! Ha!", I felt like I was now a 3rd circle mage at the same time I am now a level 3.
"Nice.", I said.
"Let's go and do some research on Rafael Salvatore.", I said as I started walk again towards the library.
At the library, I was trying to find information about the cathedral.
'I had a lingering sense of familiarity in this place.', I thought.
I then sorted through all the books.
[Introduction to cooking for dummies]
[Nerd Vs Geek: The ultimate showdown]
[Prayers to get good luck]
[How to make a girl like you?]
[Generational Wealth]
….
[The cult of Dark Cathedral.]
"Nice, I got the book.", I said as I started to read.
The Dark Cathedral was started by Miun, whose mother was killed as a part of the sacrifice to an ancient god.
In this world, people would start fake religion to give their devotion and faith to these Eldritch entities. These entities some good but most of them were corrupt only thinking of how to gain more power.
The dark cathedral would hold a trial each year to select the Dark Saint.
"That's nice.", I said as I flipped the page.
What I saw felt familiar to me.
The dark cathedral was before called a blood harvesting cult. They would harvest blood and gave it to the Sanguine god but soon they realized none of such god existed.
Muin, was kidnapped by the blood harvesting clan and then was chosen by one of the elders as a disciple. He then went on to climb the ropes and became the head of the blood harvesting cult.
Later, he then changed it to the Dark Cathedral to avenge his mother.
The destruction of the Dark Cathedral is unknown.
"So, does nobody knows how it got destroyed. That's weird.", I said out loud.
"Alright, let me see if it has any information about Rafael Salvatore.", I said as I started to flip the pages.
[Rafael Salvatore
He was an orphan found by Muin. He is a level 8 and has the strength to summon dead soldiers.
Cautions: He tends to uphold justice.]
"I see, I guess I need to fight him now.", I said.
