Expansion

The book was found in a tier 3 magic beasts stomache, the beast seems to have eaten a mage who was holding this book. there were even a broken staff in stomach but it was the tail part that was only present, the head who was holding a gem dissappear, look like this beast was from the forbidden illusion mountain and migrate to garrion mountain ridge after eating a human mage.

Mark looked at the other valuable but they were merely a magic beast cores, as they leave the garrion mountain ridge they continued to go north and entered Lydril's barony ruled by baron Beluar Lydril who was a noble who was just neighbouring the mountain ridge and elriden village, elriden was supposed to be a noble territory but the elridens has only build a big village so far and there territory was big enough to be called a dukedom, the territory of elriden was 60km spherically whole including the garrion mountain ridge was the elridens property but due to the lackness of population they couldn't ascend to viscount even baron lydril has two times the population than the elriden but elriden was supposed to be a city but march ancestor still insisted of calling it a village because it was more peaceful that way, even march father didn't let go of his ancestral idealism, if he was march he would maybe adapt the thought too but he was mark ofcourse he don't want it to be just a city but a new imperial city, he only got one city as a territory, because of it there were still noone has acquired the quality of a marquis or the duke but it doesn't mean that there were no duke or marquis though they were weaker than human marquis.

But because of the elves physical blessings they could still fend of invaders off, but they were still getting push back.

Mark and his companion was passing through baron lydril land, the noble who was its territory on the fixed road was already been informed by berlian that his son was passing through, so the people who's destination was towards the imperial city could be relief, after passing the barony they entered viscount cramor's territory which has a beautiful small hill and mountain, the viscount has 2 city and one town, and was 3 times the population than of elriden, they were also one of the main noble who gives most support to the invader defense.

They had a peaceful journey, mark was really bored and he had nothing to do but sit on the carriage but he didn't know if those three girls was bored too but it seems not the case even the soldier who only rest at night continues to maneuver they trearse like a robot, sometimes they look around to see if there was something wrong or there was an ambush, it seems like mark was the only impatient one of the journey, so he then continued his meditation starting when they entered lydril's barony he started to continue what he started, mark drink one bottle of mana sap, then closed his eyes and he was in deep focus and entered his subconscious, he saw himself again as a tranparent shadow, this time he wasn't in the book of wisdom world but in a huge platform in the void like place, it was a white platform, at the center of the platform was the floating up at the air and seems levitating in about 2 feet, it was the mana core which is nearly a halfway to become full, he couldn't still use magic since his mana core was not enough to cast a tier1 spell, there was also a lectern at the center of the huge platform and it was the book of wisdom was on it, it seems like he would get suck in if he touched it, so he ignored the lectern with a book in it.

then he tried to float up and grab the moving ball of light that moves everywhere slowly in and out, he took 3 blue ball and 2 green ones, in his first day, the small orb of mana was about to be filled but he was already exhausted as he couldn't pull one floating orb anymore, he then cut his connection to his consciousness and tirely fallen asleep as soon as he got back to his body, the sun was about to rise that time, edelina who was always beside him and he lean at here who was sleepy lean at her and fall in a deep sleep, edelina notice him leaning and sleeping beside her, and there was enough space in where they where sitting , edelina put his head in his lap and his was facing the roof of the carriage.

On the next day he did it again, he completely fill up the mana core and something magical happen, the small ball expand and it continually expanded until when the size of it was increased by 2 fold, and now was just slightly smaller than the basketball's ball, there was also a slight pain in his abdomen where the mana core located and there was also a process that mark has expected, once the mana core was expanded, besides giving attributes or become more bigger, it also divides, but in order for it to divide, in mana core that collects mana, mana power can be any types of energy but if the mana pool was filled with two or more energy, the energy that was opposite to the mana core type, like if a fire type mana core was also filled with a water energy, if the water energy whom has no mana core will makes the fire energy mana core to divide when reaching the bottleneck and the other one will be formed as water energy mana core, if the water energy already has a mana core, half of the energy will be consumed by the fire energy mana core and the rest will be ejected and instantly float to its corresponding mana core but when it float to be transferred to its corresponding core it will slowly disintegrate but based on how far the water energy core to the fire energy core.

Mark's moonforce pool has reached the bottleneck and its divided, creating a new mana core, life energy mana core, and the two separates apart each other by the distance of about 20 meters and the moonforce mana core elevated by 5 meters in height, the moonforce mana core has been upgraded to level 2, after the moonforce mana core expand, light it emits hit mark's virtual body and he felt relax in the process and a few seconds later a prompt then flashed in his front with a words,

[Congratulation Host]

[your mana core has been upgraded to level 2]

[+3 Mag] [+3 int] [elven bow +5% accuracy]

[please check the mana pool by touching it]

[this is only an advance message]

Mark was surprised about it, he thought the system was back online but when he saw the last messages, he frown as he didn't know the system has already calculated this in advance, and he also know that some items that was either was bind to him or was inside the inventory can be enhanced every time mana core upgraded, and he was happy that a new mana core has been obtained, many murim rankers who used such meditation technique has already have dozens of mana core with every type of energy, mark was also quite sad to the fact that he had to work harder in filling it since he could only pull one and also could put it only to one mana pool at the same time, which increases his work into twofold, but he can still focus to one mana core, but putting a foreign energy to a certain type of mana core was not as effective based on how far the foreign energy core but it still helps at expanding the mana core by filling mana types of energy until its full.

Mark then think throughly about the tuoching the mana cores, but he then made up his mind, he touched the mana core that was slightly bigger than the new mana core, the mana core was slightly emitting blue light every 3 seconds with blue liquid in it, must have been a condensed moonforce.

[Moon energy core]

(energy 15/15) (regen per hr: 1)

(needed energy to lvl up: 0/30)

(level 2)

(description: a mana pool that stores and condense moon energy)

Mark expected the result but he never thought the stored energy capacity was only added 5 more, the stored energy regenerate itself or can be regained by pulling the same type of energy, while the energy needed for expansion was needed to pull in some floating energy orbs but it won't increase once the stored energy was not full, instead the pulled ball of energy will replenish the stored energy.

Author's note:

I'll just changed the mana pool to mana core.
