I arrive in front of the door and start to float so that I can more easily reach the magic crystal in the middle of the door that is two meters high from the floor.
“How is he going to open the door? Wouldn’t it be better to get Rakan to do it?” (Layla)
“I think I know what you’re going to do…” (Ragnar)
I touch the crystal and see purple energy covering my left hand, I wouldn’t use my right hand to touch something that contains a curse as it could affect the World Tree Seed.
“< Magic Devourer >” (I)
My Aura concentrating in my hand and taking a Dragon head shape similar to the stigma on my back, then purple energy starts flowing from the magic crystal to the Aura Dragon’s mouth, this energy was refined by the unique characteristics of my Aura before entering my body and circulating along with my power throughout my body.
This is a technique I learned with great difficulty and am not able to fully use at the moment, this technique uses the unique characteristics I possess to steal people’s energy from items while absorbing them into my body.
This technique needs great Aura manipulation, it also needs a very powerful Aura, it needs someone with the ability to absorb energy and the ability to make that power their own.
Normally this type of power would have several restrictions such as only working with one type of energy, with elemental energies similar to the person stealing the energy and being able to support that energy in their own body.
In my case, I can only do this with mana for now, but I have my ways around this impediment, plus I have the unique skill [Chaotic Devourer], this is a passive skill that works for anything I devour or absorb.
I also have the ability to absorb mana, plus I have all kinds of affinities and resistances which make it easier to absorb these energies without causing me damage.
This skill needs a lot of concentration as I need to multitask while using it, this has been a deterrent for me so far, but I know with enough practice I will improve.
The cursed mana is not doing anything against me that could harm me and slowly it is being completely absorbed by my body, the amount of Mana contained here seems to be very large.
“Give me an energy crystal so I can transfer my excess mana.” (I)
“You don’t need a magic crystal, you can transfer it to me, the Dungeon will absorb it for you.” (Nix)
Nix approaches and generates my right hand, so I start sending the mana I’ve fully integrated into myself to Nix in a steady stream.
I had just become an intermediary while devouring the crystal’s mana, converting it into my own power and sending it to Nix, we stayed like that for almost 1 hour, and in that time I realized that the amount of Mana must be over 100000, much higher than my own mana reserve.
My body might not have been able to withstand that energy, I also felt a magic trying to activate in the crystal, it felt like some kind of curse, but as I was constantly stealing energy from the crystal, the curse magic didn’t get a chance to activate.
Keeping my concentration for so long led me to exhaustion, my head was hurting and I already realized that I have a fever due to the mental effort, I was also feeling a little pain through my body as a flow of energy that didn’t belong to me kept running through my body nonstop just for me to make that energy my own before sending it to Nix.
But after so long the glow of the magic crystal dimmed and the last trace of energy was absorbed or should I say devoured by me.
Sigh
When I’m finally done, I fall into Nix’s arms, who lays me down on a bed of leaves made by Sakura.
“When did you learn this kind of technique? It even looks like the kind of skill an Energy Vampire would have.” (Vanessa)
“I have been training with the master this technique which is called Aura Incarnation.” (Ragnar)
“This technique consists of materializing your Aura in a form that best adapts to the user, in addition, you need to fully understand the Aura to do this.” (Ragnar)
“Sounds like a powerful skill.” (Hela)
“This is not a skill, which makes learning and using this technique even more problematic to learn.” (Ragnar)
“A person must know themselves well and be truthful to use this or they won’t be able to find the right shape for their Aura.” (Ragnar)
“It seems that using this technique has a price the body must pay, right?” (Orion)
“Yes and no, constantly absorbing that energy was what hurt me the most, but it’s true that compressing an Aura before making it material puts a lot of pressure on the person.” (I)
“But as you saw, the technique is still incomplete, I’m still not able to use it as I don’t know the most suitable form for my Aura.” (Ragnar)
———- .
After all that I rested for 30 minutes while Vanessa tried to use some healing spells on me.
No one approached the door that should now be unlocked, everyone waited for me to recover which happened after a few more minutes of meditating to expel the curse energy from my body.
When I got up I already had a bottle of blood waiting for me which came in full before thanking Sakura for bringing it to me.
As soon as I felt better I stood up and walked towards the door, as soon as I did a little force the door started to open by itself revealing a small hall inside.
There were magic circles and Runes on the back of the door, on the walls, on the ceiling, and on the floor, but now they were all off, I could see that there were dozens of magic crystals on the walls around them, but they were all off, I couldn’t understand much well nothing about those things, but I was still able to notice that all these magic circles were connected together, I probably absorbed all the energy from these crystals, that explains why I had so much energy.
I look around to see if it’s safe before approaching the six pointed star shaped jewel on top of an altar, it seemed to have some pink energy around it, I look good and all I can say is that it looks like a carved jewelry.
I feel my blessings activating within me and these energies flowing from my body, the energies of the color red and the color of the rainbow come out of my hand touching the pink energy.
I who wasn’t able to bring my hand close before, now I’m able to touch this object, so I use my skill to try to identify it.
Ding!
