Earth's Greatest Magus

As soon as Emery arrived back in the Khaos Space, he walked toward the opposite of the dragon and sat in a lotus position.

He checked on his palm to look at his stats.

[Emery Ambrose]

[Battle Power: 93 ( 85)]

[Spirit Force: 652 (510)]

[Spirit Core of Darkness – Stage 5]

[Spirit Core of Nature - Stage 2]

[Fey Bloodline – Rank 4]

[Acolyte Rank: 8]

At this moment, his topmost priority was to reach 700 points of spirit force. He was hoping with this number he would reach the third stage of his nature core and he should be able to cast his most prominent healing spell, the tier 3 [Nature’s Blessing]. 

Of course, the main purpose of achieving this was none other than to heal Morgana, which was why he had to reach it as soon as possible.

”Haha, what a pleasant surprise! I like your determination, kid!” The dragon in front of him said with satisfaction, when he felt Emery’s new determination.

However, as flattering and encouraging as the dragon’s words were, Emery had no plan to entertain the dragon today. Without paying him any mind, Emery concentrated on his dual core and began absorbing the Khaos Energy around him.

Gradually, the dragon’s incessant voice started to turn into echoes, until he could only sense himself and his two cores.

Ever since he managed to reach a breakthrough in his [Dao Divine Technique], he could vividly feel the Khaos energy that was attracted to his dark core was now able to synergize with the nature core much more efficiently. Not only that, the bridge that connected his nature core with his dark core had become large enough for the Khaos energy to smoothly flow, resulting in a much faster absorption rate.

In the first week of absorbing the khaos energy alone, Emery managed to increase his spirit force by 12 points. However, even though it could be considered great progress, it was still not enough. Because of this, Emery did not stop to rest and continued to lock himself inside the Khaos Space to cultivate.

After 35 days of non stop cultivating, Emery finally managed to reach the number he was aiming for.

[Spirit force increased]

[Spirit Force: 700]

[Congratulations, your nature core has been upgraded to stage 3!]

This notification was what Emery had been waiting for: stage three nature core. Although it might not seem like a lot, Emery could actually feel the power of his nature core increase by twofold compared to when he just entered the Khaos Space.

His whole body was upgraded to a whole new level.

[Emery Ambrose]

[Battle Power: 95 (86)]

[Spirit Force: 700 (545)]

When Emery finished feeling the increase in power, he opened his eyes and stood up. Taking a deep breath, he began gathering the element of nature in his hand. In response, his arm started to glow green, signifying he was ready to cast the tier 3 spell [Nature’s Blessing].

Now that he was sure he could cast the spell, he turned his gaze to look at the dragon in front of him.

”Lord Killgragah, I need to go for a short while.”

Killgragah had been waiting for Emery, who had sat unmoving for more than a month, and yet… without giving him a chance to say a word, the boy already left using his spatial gate. 

The dragon suddenly regretted teaching him the spell.

The next place Emery was headed to was none other than the shrine. As soon as he arrived, he saw Klea meditating inside the shrine by herself.

Noticing Emery’s arrival, Klea quickly stood up and approached him.

”You finally came, huh! I can’t believe you disappeared for more than a month without leaving a single word!” Klea said, as she approached Emery.

Although her words seemed to scold him, her smile and gesture showed quite the opposite.

”I’m sorry, Klea, I...”

”Ha…” she sighed. ”Don’t worry about it. If you’re here, then you must have found a way to heal her. Hurry up give it a try!”

When the high priestess also arrived, she was just in time to see Emery walk down into the pond and slowly approach Morgana.

Without wasting any time, Emery put both of his arms on top of Morgana’s floating body and started casting [Nature’s Blessing].

Following the casting of the tier 3 healing spell, spirit energy started entering Morgana’s body. After a few moments, her body began to glow, but aside from that, there seemed to be no other effects even after a few minutes of continuous casting.

Emery gritted his teeth. His nature core had only reached the third stage recently, so he was already beginning to feel exhausted. However, he did not want to give up. Without a second thought, Emery used his [Fey Transformation - Shaman Form].

With the magic boost from the fey transformation, Emery could feel that not only was the spell flowing even more smoothly, but the strength of the spell had also increased by at least 50%.

”Wake up, Morgana! Wake up!”

Emery was only able to hold the shaman for a little over 15 minutes. Constantly channeling the spell was a burden to his spirit core.  Emery persisted until he could no longer squeeze out any more spirit energy, but there was still no visible reaction.

He could only let go of the spell with disappointment.

”Urgh!!!” Emery felt angry. He was about to scream at the top of his lungs. when Klea suddenly shouted, ”Emery, her fingers!”

Morgana’s finger twitched for a few seconds, but nothing else happened. After those few seconds, her body remained paralyzed once again.

”There’s no need to feel down... This is progress”

Emery did not know if she said those words because she truly believed them or simply to cheer him up, but he did not feel any better. On the contrary, he felt more desperate.

”No! I have to! I have to...!”

To Klea’s surprise, Emery seemed to be much more irritated than he should. He was extremely emotional at the moment, and Klea found this behavior unusual. Klea had never seen him in this state.

It took Emery a few seconds to calm down. 

He took a deep breath and thought his uncontrollable emotions were the side effect of his fey transformation. All the things he carried on his back started to weigh down on him. Emery was about to return back to the Khaos Space again when Klea stopped him.

”Wait! You promised me a date… let’s do it today”
