Nodes [2]

'It's so…unnatural!'

Damien didn't know how to explain it clearly. More than anything, the process looked incomplete.

Damien had to admit, the speed at which mana flowed into Aishia's wrist node was mind-boggling. Her mana was like streaking lightning the second it was mobilized, rushing through her body.

But she didn't actually have defined circuits to connect her body. Her nodes were strung together flimsily by small currents of mana.

Then, how did they achieve such an effect?

It took more time examining the node itself for Damien to understand the answer.

'This is a massive hub purely for amplification and casting speed. It's like a smaller, less refined version of my Mana Heart that's been granted offensive capability.

The idea was simple. Though the currents through which mana ran from one node to another were small, they were incredibly sturdy. The mana that traveled through it would be forcefully compressed by its size.
