Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 978  Magus

When he arrived at the Ancient Garden building, Vicente didnʼt have to go through the counter to get his permit and the key to a cultivation room.

As an external member sponsored by this force, he could enter any unit of this force spread throughout Light Cay, using only a pendant that Asahel had given him. Through it, he quickly got a member of the Ancient Garden to direct him to one of the best cultivation rooms currently free for use in the area.

Arriving on the 11th floor of the building, he took the elevator to the front of room 1111, where, without delay, he thanked the training center employee and locked himself in that room.

The cultivation room at this location did not differ from the training center unit in the Ravengarde core, which Vicente had already experienced. The place was a 5-meter cube with various formations that enriched the area with mana and elements. Apart from that, there was nothing really interesting there to attract attention.

With one movement, Vicente sat down on his cultivation cushion, while Prisiche stood in front of the roomʼs door, eyeing her master curiously.

Sitting down with his eyes closed, Vicente controlled the mana inside his body, drawing more power from the surroundings into his soul and body.

He felt as if he were a dry sponge that was now being drenched with water, amid an immense reservoir of liquid, as big as an entire sea.

His 12 pentagrams suddenly appeared outside his body, with the Throne of Light and Darkness showing alongside Vicenteʼs electromagnetic essence.

Prisiche looked with interest at his masterʼs powers, watching as the indigo lines on his indigo pentagrams grew stronger, with little violet streaks appearing on them.

ʼThe master will eventually raise the quality of his pentagrams to the violet grade... At that time, he will become a truly monstrous existence and surpass Light Cayʼs limit.ʼ She pondered silently, imagining that his place after reaching the level of a Grand Magus would naturally be off this island.

As she thought this, Vicente felt his powers acquired on leaving Polaris Realm improving in efficiency and intensity, while his mana reached a new level.

But the most fantastic changes were taking place in his physical body. His soul was already impressive before he arrived in Anicane. But his body still carried a little of what it was on that ʼmortalʼ plane. Now, however, his body was more like that of a god than that of a mere magician!

His bones had hardened considerably, while his muscles, tendons and ligaments had changed, becoming more flexible, resilient, with faster electrical responses and an accelerated regeneration factor.

Feeling as if he was becoming more compatible with his surroundings, Vicente noticed a sudden decrease in the pressure of mana on his body and soul. As this happened, his control over external mana improved, and with each breath he took, he brought greater quantities of elements and mana under his control.

In the blink of an eye, he changed from a 9-Star Archmage to a 1-Star Magus, with a mana 10 times stronger than the one he had hours ago.

Meanwhile, his vitality tripled and he could now live over 30,000 years longer before reaching the limit of his life expectancy. That is, of course, if he stopped advancing and eventually became stagnant at the 7th magical stage.

But Vicente was far from a cultivation bottleneck. As he finished his advance, reaching 27% progress at the level of a 1-Star Magus, he felt his Magic Gems burning on his forehead.

An indigo trace suddenly appeared in one of the two essences, initiating the transformation of his magical quality to the next step!

The Throne of Light and Darkness shook as the consciousness of this magical form finally came back to life.

ʼDonʼt conquer anything below the indigo grade. I wonʼt accept it.ʼ

ʼTsk! Youʼre always so demanding!ʼ Vicente teased it, although he agreed on this point.

Now that he had such an incredible configuration of pentagrams, he couldnʼt give up the possibility of absorbing only the highest quality pentagrams possible.

ʼHowever, that will probably require me to hunt super-talented 7th stage creatures or more ʼordinaryʼ 8th stage individuals.ʼ He warned his magical form.

ʼYour magical base has become much stronger and youʼll need more pentagrams to maintain your spiritual stability. However, it wonʼt be a problem if you run out of the next two pentagrams until you reach 5-Star. Just donʼt go longer than that without them. But you can take your time to choose your future targets.ʼ

Vicente felt this was right and agreed to do as the Throne suggested.

But the Throne warned him of something, ʼHowever, be careful with your cultivation speed. Youʼve never tried Anicane resources and this mana density is new to you. This means that until you sensitize yourself to this area and its resources, you will advance quickly. Itʼs possible that youʼll become a 5-Star Magus in less than 4 years. So donʼt get too comfortable without your next two pentagrams.ʼ

Vicente opened his eyes slowly after this important conversation with the Throne, setting some new goals for himself.

ʼIʼll research my options, hunting grounds and wait until I reach 3-Star of the 7th stage. Going hunting right after leveling up, when Iʼm still not used to this world, could be a big mistake. Iʼll take it easy for now.ʼ He thought to himself, deciding how to move forward with his situation.

After almost half an hour in that cultivation room, he stood up from where he had sat earlier, his strength fully stabilized, ready to take his next step.

”Master, congratulations on your improvement in cultivation. At your current rate, in a decade you might become a Grand Magus and reach the Violet grade in some of your pentagrams!” The artificial intelligence said in a great tone, sensing how glorious would be the future of this guy she would be watching for the next few years at least.

Vicente smiled at her, but didnʼt invest in the subject. ”Prisiche, take me to the Manifold Family post. I want directions to Ponddown.”
