87 Primordial Will

Days passed, the dimension had already been closed. The white fey beast rampaged in anguish on the outside. Deep in the temple was the flashing of various elements, the wind would blow the elements around the realm causing further destruction.

Brian diligently watched and attended to my commands. I started creating a large scale magic circle that I tested, and Brian would help out with it. In that time, I also did some alchemy using the Fire, and Ice Longans. I was able to create two powerful shining potions, then I spent the rest of the time, designing the new spell circle.

"Lucas do you truly want to try this?" Drrak asked I looked at his 30-meter dragon form in front of me. He had already left my shadow since he no longer needed to hide. This was his reduced size, I could see within that violet stare a special kind of intent.

"If I don't do this, then I will lose out in the future," I said in a determined voice

"But...." Drrak was about to continue

"But nothing, I have already hardened my heart on this matter. If I am unwilling to take such risks, then what right to I have to pursue true independence?" I could feel with my declaration my sword intent bubble up. I followed through with my heart, and I was rewarded, the moment I breakthrough that would explode out. I looked over at Brian who's head was bowed to me currently.

'It is rather interesting, using the essence of Sopulla as a basis. Part of Dante's soul, and massive magic power he was able to create this clone.'

'The clone even started on the process of creating, its own true soul. When they fused back together, Dante would be completely healed. Not only that but his power would reach the very limit of Grand Magi.'

'With some further work and time; he could even reach the Legendary realm.' I couldn't help but smile, this was my path. No one else would tread this path but me. I was unwilling to allow someone to challenge or equal my will.

"Get into position." I coldly intoned as I got closer to the statue of Sopulla. Brian nodded his head as he flew off.

I stood in front of the statue and lightly touched it. I look into the Elven Goddess' eyes, I felt as though she was looking back at me.

"You called me here, yet you do not respond anymore," I said as sighed, and I got no response.

"But I thank you, you have helped me out quite a lot," I said as I looked at Brian fly back and come in front of me.

"Is it prepared?" I asked as I coldly eyed Brian.

Brian shook his head yes, and sat in front of me. I stomped on the ground, and a myriad of calculations abounded in moments. Shapes of various sizes emerged from the ground. Then a violet spell circle with extremely intricate and detailed inscriptions was created on the ground.

Along the matrix were 3 blank points, The statue in the center, me just in front of the statue, and Brian right behind the statue.

"Execute the matrix." I coldly intoned as I released my shadowy magic power. It fused with the matrix, and my elemental brandings burned onto my face.

Brian followed suit and released a vortex of wind energy into the ground. On his face burned similar brandings, and from the interaction. The spell circle started shining with intense power, and the statue seemed to come to life. The energy channeled into it, as it started to generate a green aura.

"So this is the origin of that gem?" I said as I watched the green energy form an elf beauty. She looked at me and smiled but she shed a tear as she looked at Drrak. Drrak shook in surprise and trepidation as he looked at her, but his face still held a sense of confusion.

'He doesn't know her, it seems but what is her relation to Cenir?' I thought to myself as the green energy dissipated.

Brian shook and his orifices started to ooze blood, from the blood departed further energy. It was green and it fused with the green energy in the sky. The energy flew and created a vortex, which started to compress in phases.

At its final revolution, it was compressed into a beautiful and intricate gem. It was like a project of certain laws, in it was a vortex of healing wind. This was the purest form of Sopulla's essence, not adulterated by other presences.

"Now for Ice." I declared as Brian shook once again, from his blood then departed a thick ice energy. I took out a potion, in the beaker was an icy face of a wolf. Its icy fangs bore out as took bite out of its container in anger, I crushed the container and gripped the icy wolf in my palm.

I then blasted out the ice wolf into the sky, as it fused with Brian's icy energy. It bit apart from the attributes of Brian in the energy, taking its place. The icy wolf started to expand until it became a majestic full grown wolf. It howled out a storm of icy as it reached its full form.

"Now for fire," I said as Brian shook one last time and from his frail and weakened body came a stream of flames. The flames flew into the sky and created a face similar to Dante and Brian. The face looked at me with venomous hatred, and it flew at me in anger.

"Do you think I was unprepared?" I said as I took out my other beaker, in the potion that was burning with intense golden flames. Inside of the beaker among the interactions of the golden fire bred an existence akin to Phoenix! It immerses itself in the golden flames and became undying with time.

I broke the beaker, once again crushing into dust, and then I compressed the Phoenix down. The clothes on my upper body quickly burned off, and along my left arm was intricate black inscriptions. Within the inscriptions flowed a curse power and flames.

In my left hand I generated a black flame of curses, and in my right hand, I held a golden flame of immortality. I bought the two flames closer to each other, then they started to fuse, becoming a golden black flame.

"Underworld Flames." I intoned as I released the flame at the flaming figure. A golden black Phoenix ascended into the skies while slashing at the face. The face tried to shake off the Phoenix but the Phoenix used the face's flames to revitalize itself.

"As long as there is heat, the Phoenix can revive," I said as I mocked the face.

Soon after Dante was wiped out, and the Phoenix grew significantly before it was satisfied. Brian's body started to collapse, I could see it start to fade away. I smirked, as I released my black lotus which instantly attracted his lotus.

In my hand I held the Lotus as it revolved in my palm, I observed the interesting revolutions for a moment. Feeling content my eyes flashed with runic inscriptions that created a vortex. The Lotus flew into that vortex willingly and disappeared as the memories truly became mine.

"Now for you two," I said as I stood up and looked at the Phoenix and the Wolf.

The Phoenix looked happy and content as it looked at me. But the Wolf seemed to have rebellious qualities to it. It howled and rushed at me ready to devour me.

"Oh, you want to consume me? But are you qualified?" I coldly intoned as the Phoenix flew at the Wolf read to kill it. The battled a massive elemental battle for a few moments.

"That's enough become my power," I yelled out, as the spell circle operated at full capacity. I wouldn't allow any wasting of their essence in combat. The spell matrix focused on me, and with the sheer size, I could feel my power rise immensely.

"Two Primordial Wills are not enough to defeat me," I said as a black longsword emerged from my body and released a massive devouring vortex using the spellcircle!

I used the wills of ancient beasts that fought in the ancient battle, to fight a grand mage. These wills when destroyed were used by the plants to grow. Which led to the revival of some of their wills, and killed the plant's fragile will.

"All beings are of will, but my will shall supplant all." I declared as the vortex quickly increased in size, it was a massive black hole that pulled in the beasts.

The Phoenix gladly entered it as it originated to a certain extent from me. But the Wolf resisted the vortex for a little while, but ultimately it was unable to escape and was consumed.

"Condense" I declared as the spell circle on my solar plexus activated. The various restrictions activated at full force! The spell circle on the ground compressed from the outside, as the matrices slowly simplified; returning to simplicity to essence and to laws.

The spell circle soon became so small, it was wrapped around only me and to the limit without touching me. The spell circle levitated from the ground as it passed me. It then compressed even further until it was only as big as my palm.

I called to it and it levitated over my index finger. I looked into the sky and the gem was still shining. I called it to me using telekinesis as it landed into my palm, and I threw it into my bag of holding.

"Let it begin," I said as I slapped the tattoo onto my stomach restrictions. They started to fuse together creating an even more intricate tattoo. Power surged throughout my body as the process of advancement started.
