Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 403: Nature Grasp

Just as Emery thought, the moment he arrived at the center, Killgragah instantly shot a fire breath at him.

Looking at the approaching red beam, Emery swiftly braced himself to resist it and as the result, the [Jade Skin] apparently was able to withstand the fire. Emery was about to smile at the result when he saw the dragon smirked and blew out another fire breath. This time, the fire was not red, but violet.

Emery could only watch as his body was engulfed by the violet flame. This particular flame reminded him of the one used by Garry the violet flame.

In a matter of seconds, pain swiftly consumed his entire body as his skin gradually burned. But, he could still endure it.

Seeing that, Killgragah nodded its massive head. "Not bad! Now try this!"

This time, the dragon only spat a small ember, but it was black-colored.

From afar, Emery had a very bad feeling as he watched the ember slowly fly at him. He could clearly feel the searing heat before it reached him. However, he still needed to test the [Jade Skin], therefore he prepared himself.

The ember landed on Emery's shoulder and it immediately broke apart and melted the [Jade Skin] there. Excruciating pain instantly ravaged as it seeped into his whole shoulder.

Emery gritted his teeth due to how painful the sensation was. Immediately, he sat down and casted [Nature Blessing] on himself to ease the pain he was currently feeling.

Unfortunately, even though the pain was lessened by the spell, it was unable to stop the burning. It slowly spread to his chest and neck, causing Emery to panic.

This particular flame was on a much different level to the violet one.

At this moment, Killgragah laughed and spat a liquid to his shoulder, exactly where the ember previously landed. Then, the burning finally stopped.

Looking at the relieved Emery, Killgragah asked. "So, what do you learn from this, kid?"

Emery was silent as he pondered what the dragon asked him. For him, at the moment it only proves that the dragon was a bit of an asshole really.

The dragon told him that all the fire the dragon shot was apparently the [Fire Breath]. A spell that was categorized as Tier 2 spell, the [Fire Breath].

Emery was quite amaze as to how such a low rank spell could deliver such extraordinary destruction. It turned out that 'low rank' spells, as he had dubbed, could have such a devastating impact if one had completely mastered the said spells.

The dragon explains how other than higher spirit force, there was such a thing as mastering the spells. Therefore, Killgragah reminded him to not follow the way humans did, having dozens of spells to learn. Instead, focusing on fully mastering a few spells would be the right way.

Unfortunately for him, he already learned all of this in the magus academy, Emery can only take the burning pain in his shoulder as part of the benefits package the Khaos space could offer.

After his shoulder was healed by [Nature Blessing], Emery once again returned to the corner where he previously sat.

This time, he wanted to cast his newly-gained Tier 4 spell [Nature Grasp].

Remembering how the spell was given to him with a few warnings, Emery expected that this spell would be a hard one to cast. Thus, he was dumbfounded when he managed to cast it on his first try.

While sitting in the same lotus position, Emery followed the instruction in his mind and channeled his green spirit energy, guiding it through his core. Immediately, Emery felt as if his whole body opened up, just like breathing, as it started pulling the spirit energy in the surrounding.

Emery was sure the spell was cast as his body created a reaction, but surprisingly, nothing changed.

"Did I cast it wrong?" Emery thought as his mind reviewed the way he cast the spell earlier.

He repeated the spell once again, and this time, was absolutely sure his body reacted to the spell. Still, there was no result. Then, before he could try once again, a loud bellow resounded through the space.

"What did I just tell you about specializing the spells?!! Why are you wasting time with another new spell again?!!"

Emery was startled by the roar that he jerked to his feet. Turning to the dragon, he swiftly waved his hand and said,

"Please, great supreme being.. This spell was said to be my family's treasured spell. I hope you can give me some guidance."

Seeing how humble Emery was, Killgragah still decided to tell him about it, albeit unwillingly.

"The spell that you cast is a nature spell. Thus, it's natural for it to not work in Khaos space, which is thoroughly filled with pure darkness energy. You can only see the effect outside."

"Aaa… no wonder." Emery understood. He even wanted to bang his head onto something due to the foolishness.

Without further ado, Emery told Killgragah his decision to leave the space.

Hearing that, the dragon could only say, "It seems it can't be helped, huh! That spell will really help you advance. So, go! Just make sure to bring me more… good.. stuff."

It had been two weeks since he stayed in the Khaos space, without resting and eating sparingly. Therefore, this could be the good break he needed.

Before leaving, Emery suddenly thought of something. "Oh, great supreme being, I wonder.. I wonder if you will be gracious enough to allow me to bring someone else to this place.

It seemed the question annoyed the dragon as Emery could hear the latter's growl.

"Do you think this place is an inn you can rent out, kid?!"

Emery immediately waved his hand when he heard the dragon's words, denying it.

"No, great supreme being. Of course not. I don't dare."

At this moment he really thought this khaos space could be really useful.

He could easily solve the problem of Arthur's need for spiritual force if he could take Arthur inside. Especially for Morgana who obviously talented in magic. The dragon could even teach her some fire element spells seeing the dragon powerful fire spell before.

He then suddenly thought about his four friends, If they all could access what he's currently having, they would not need to be concerned about the third year at all.

Thinking about the danger they will be facing, Emery was forced to ask again about the possibility of having others access the khaos space.

Emery was expecting the wrath of the dragon, but then he said

"Actually kid, like I said before the answer is behind that door, if you can open it then you will be the chosen master of the khaos. At that time you can do whatever you wish"

Emery sigh, at the end it came back to his progression, he needs to grow stronger fast. He gave a bow to the dragon and opened the Spatial Gate to reach outside.

The moment Emery walked out of the Spatial Gate, he quickly found a spot on one of the stones and sat down in lotus position.

Without wasting any more time, Emery immediately began channeling his spirit energy as he cast the spell again.

[Nature Grasp]

This time, Emery could clearly feel it. His whole body was opening up to the surroundings around him.

The stone he sat on, the grass and trees in the area; he could vividly perceive the energy running within them. It was such an amazing feeling.

All those energy were flowing and connecting to his body, circulating into his spirit core and affecting it - in a positive way.

If [Nature Blessing] was a spell that utilized the green, Plant element spirit energy within him to give into others to heal and recover, this [Nature Grasp] spell was the other way around. It siphoned the energy of his surroundings and channeled into his body. Emery could clearly feel his spirit energy was being refreshed with every passing second.

Emery was so drowned by the sensation the surroundings brought that he nearly became like nature itself. He didn't say nor think anything; he just completely immersed into his surroundings.

Without realizing, Emery had been sitting for hours. He was undisturbed even when the night arrived.

Just like this, one day turned into two, two into three, and so on. Emery had become like a statue, sitting there peacefully.

Until finally, on the fifth day, he was roused awake by a notification that appeared in his mind.

[Your spirit force has increased]

[Spirit force 226 (151)]

Emery opened his eyes in delightment. He knows he can increase his spirit force much faster in the khaos space. But what really excited him was that he found that his understanding of nature elements has greatly improved. Something he definitely needs at the moment.
