The inscription stone [2]
An incredible amount of mana was emanating from the cart Zarina had brought.
It was clearly in the form of a condensed elixir, yet it exuded enough mana to make its presence known.
It undoubtedly contained even more mana than the elixir obtained from killing Besaha in the human realm.
'...If I consume this, I might be able to break through the 5,000 mark.'
This was as good as certain.
It was true that the more mana one possessed, the smaller the increase became, but there was no way the amount of mana would remain the same after consuming such an elixir.
… However, I couldn't consume this elixir.
It wasn't that I wasn't tempted, but I needed to leverage it for something from the Headmaster.
Besides, in my current state, it wasn't wise to expect significant growth just from increasing my mana capacity.
At best, my Killing Intent and Darkness characteristics might evolve a single stage.
