Demons used demonic energy, which is based on negative emotions like anger, greed, fear, wreath, etc.
They form the core based on these emotions and use demonic magic with its power.
Demonic magic is more fundamentally powerful than human magic as it focuses on destruction and chaos.
Their cores contain this concentrated demonic energy.
A demonic core, though corrupted, is an energy core at its base.
As one type of energy can be converted into another, demonic energy can be converted into purified energy with different methods.
It's not Mana, Aura, or anything similar but the same demonic energy without corruption.
As my Mana core stores Mana and my subconscious mind will store Aura, this demonic energy which is purified has to be used in a way it increases the density of one of them in surroundings.
I could gather more Mana with it inside this cave and practice breakthrough to (tier-2).
As for Aura... it was a different and complicated topic.
There were many energies as complicated as Aura in this 'world', and that could precisely be the reason every natural energy was counted as M.P. on screen.
Aura and other energies such as [Arcane], [Spirit power], [Inner Force], [Ether], [Psychic], [Ki], [Internal Energy], and many other natural energies are counted as <Magic Power> or shortly <M.P.>.
I knew almost nothing about these special energies.
All my knowledge was about Mana, Aura, and other most common energies.
As for this purified demonic energy, it could be used to gather Mana.
When I use this purified demon core with a special magic circle, it will integrate and create an area full of Mana inside this cave for some time.
So all I had to do now was find everything needed for the purification of this core and create a small system of magic spells.
It was so simple in theory that even a 6-year-old like me could understand it.
But, there was a single problem in all this...
"Golden flower of light, Blue rose of night, Forest Nectar, Water of light, Soil of fertile anthill, Poison of pink mushroom, and lastly some simple sunlight.
These were the ingredients to purify this demonic core and finding them was... difficult," I sighed and put the black core down.
The most difficult things here were a pink mushroom and Forest Nectar.
Even for experienced adventurers, finding that mushroom was more difficult than anything.
A rare mushroom that contains highly potent poison as well as a large amount of natural energy.
Even in this forest, I haven't seen any of them yet.
Which meant I had to go outside of my comfort zone and into hostile and new territory.
As for forest nectar... it was in abundance on the higher parts of the great Baniya tree.
It was produced by the trees themselves in an attempt to attract other insect-type energy beasts.
Filled with concentrated Mana and the life force of older trees, it's a great temporary Mana booster.
If I was going to risk my life and climb a tree homed by many different types of creatures... why do it halfheartedly?
There actually was a way to just fly over to that height but it was time-consuming.
'Well, I have all the time in the world as survival is at stake here.'
Now, I will do something weird.
"Let's create a hot air balloon..."
A small smile appeared on my face as I deeply thought about it.
This world had many things that could fly.
They had airships that sized more than ships from my previous life.
Tchnomagical advancement of this world was so good that the continent's most famous, big, and best university was a floating island.
A hot-air balloon was an old concept here and people only remembered them through history books.
It was weird of me to make something like that just for collecting some tree sap but it was a bit fun.
Actually making something like that and float in the air...
If not for the many horrible creatures that ruled the sky, I would just... fly in this hell-like forest.
So!
"Let's just put everything aside and start making a safe, hot air balloon that could go at least up there~!"
With a forced and cheerful fake smile, I walked to the cave's back.
Even if I acted normally, the danger in this was great enough to lose my life...

"Alf~. What are we doing today~?"
A beautiful, cheerful, sweet, and happy voice rang in a large library filled with books of different origins.
Books of all types, colors, sizes, and languages filled the large shelves of this library.
The room was beautiful and there was a large glass window on the other side of the room.
A pretty boy with forest green hair and gorgeous purple eyes that looked magical was sitting quietly on a table, reading a thick magic tome.
It was a different language than everyone knew and it looked like he was reading it quite easily.
When he heard the most common and sweet as well as his favorite voices, he looked up.
"Hay mom... we are doing nothing for today..."
His answer was half-hearted and his focus was still on the book.
The book contained many different geometric drawings of magic circles and spells.
The young woman with light pink hair which was quite long, reaching to her back sat down and smiled at him.
Gorgeous.
That were the only words that could barely describe her phenomenally beautiful shining eyes.
They were mesmerizing.
Not only men but women might also love to just stare at her.
There was something about her eyes but she was quite beautiful herself.
On the level of Nolen and Augustine, some of the most famous women in the capital.
"Is today a break day~?" she asked, looking a bit disappointed.
"Yup." His answers were short but he enjoyed her company so he just sat there and smiled.
"You are working so hard~. You want to be like Eon, right?" she asked, looking down and playing with her fancy yellow dress.
But her question lit up a blazing fire in his eyes.
Looking back at her, he shouted in excitement.
"No! I will be better than him! Though I haven't been awakened yet, I will soon awaken.
I will become a better mage than him and challenge him!
Though we have never met, he is my big brother and forever rivel!
I will beat him and learn from him!
I... just can't wait to meet him."
His excitement turned into a grim expression as he reached the end of his sentence.
He looked up to Eon the most ever since he started hearing stories about him from his father and uncle.
And just the stories were enough to light up a spark of inspiration and rivalry in him.
His own goal was to become a mage, just like his dad and uncle.
Though he had his different power just like his mom, it wasn't of any use to him.
His only aim was Axion and him alone.
He had waited for a long time now but then... he heard the story from his dad.
He... then started respecting him even more.
It was a truly hero-like deed.
He hoped that Eon would come back soon so he and his big sis Carla could have their long-postponed matches.
But... there was no way for them to do anything.
A long time had passed and there was still nothing they had found about him.
So... they might have to think of the worst that he was in 'that' place.
"Don't worry. We know he is ok and that's enough," she said reassuringly.
Everyone has been a little on edge and she was the only one that had remained this cheerful.
It was her nature and trait which helped everyone around her.
"Ok, mom..."
Kissing his forehead, she looked to the side and cheerfully asked...
"So~, who wants this ice cream?"
His eyes lit up in surprise again, and he stood up.
"Me!" he shouted. The eagerness of a child oozed from him.
She just smiled sweetly as she understood his reaction.
Even she was surprised when her brother Brian had made this thing for everyone the last time they went there.
It was something Eon personally created and it was... phenomenal~.
We just fell in love with it.
There were literally all kinds of flavors in this and Alfred's favorite was strawberry.
She personally liked a spicy one.
A red chilly flavor that was cold and spicy at the same time.
Everyone had a favorite flavor now and it was all thanks to Eon.
He might not know this but, he was the heart of many people that he didn't even know about.
She smiled again, a concern present in those mesmerizing eyes.
'Eon... be safe...'
