Sitting crossed leg, Leo closed his eyes as he slowly moved his spirit into one of the large Mana stones in front of him. Unlike the scene that he had seen from the light blue Mana stone that he had absorbed before the scene in front of him now was like a forest burning in blue-colored flames made out of Pure Mana.

Leo tried touching the Pure Mana flame around him, trying to feel the sensation of touching them. Though the Pure Mana was seemingly burning fiercely, it wasn't actually hot or anything at all. Moreover, the feeling was constantly changing, too. Sometimes as active as a fire, it would then be as smooth as a Water, it would then be hard as an Earth, as lively as Nature, flexible as a wind, and many more other properties of the other Elements.

It was really marvelous!

Leo was also having this feeling that what he was feeling right now isn't really real, maybe just his imagination or the likes. However, he also noticed something serious. The longer he had put his hand around the Pure Mana, the more Pure Mana was attracted to him.

Quickly, Leo observes closely as he realized that the Pure Mana wasn't attracted to him; it was actually being absorbed by his right palm. And it was being absorbed in great speed, too.

Leo quickly exited from being in his spirit form as he looks closely towards his right palm. He was dumbfounded immediately soon after as the translucent stack of numerous Magic circles in his whole right hand were actually slowly becoming corporeal. It slowly appeared in a solid form now, unlike the illusion state that it had always been.

"F*ck!" Leo can't help but to curse out as he quickly looks around his surrounding. Fortunately, he noticed that no one was around to see what is happening to his right hand.

Leo turned his attention back again to his right palm. He then noticed that the large Mana stone's color was fading away. From dark blue, it turned blue, sky blue, light blue, until it finally turned into an ordinary stone, in just a matter of a half a minute.

Leo was astonished and excited after discovering such a marvelous thing. He really wanted to shout loudly to express how happy he was, but those guards would surely be attracted to him, hence discovering such a shocking scene.

Imagine, those guards had only left Leo for more than half a minute, then the moment they came back again they will see for themselves an empty large Mana stone among the group of large dark-colored Mana stones. Naturally, they will realize just how shocking was Leo's absorption speed. He obviously doesn't want that to happen. Trouble will surely follow the moment the guards report to their respective bosses about their findings.

Moreover, that was only the case in the large Mana stones. How about the moment they turned their attention around and finding out about his right hand? Numerous stack of Magic circles covering his entire right hand. Such an astonishing thing would surely make all these guards charge at Leo immediately and bring him in front of their bosses.

After all, these guards weren't stupid at all. The moment they found out about Leo's unusual or unknown ability, they would quickly think between to report or simply take Leo in front of their boss. Between the two choices, obviously, they would choose the latter. Who on earth would even believe them if they write a report about Leo having the capability to form numerous Magic circles? Hence, the best choice was to bring Leo in front of their boss to demonstrate what they had seen. And the next thing that will happen would surely be trouble.

So, Leo could only inwardly express his feeling if he doesn't want those things to happen to him.

Suddenly, Leo quickly moves to the very corner of the small garden as he decided that he will continue to absorb the other remaining five large Mana stones over there. He was excited as he slowly crossed his legs on the ground as he puts one large Mana stone in front of him.

However, Leo became confused the next moment. He realizes that he was actually unable to repeat the same thing again. He observes his right palm closely as he saw clearly that his palm wasn't absorbing anymore Pure Mana. Though the numerous stack of Magic circle was still around his right hand, it wasn't doing anything to the second Mana stone on his hand, at all.

"Did I perhaps reached my limit or something?"

Teacher Marvin had discussed before that everything that a Mage does has a limit. A Mage cannot cast a specific Magic spell if they don't have the corresponding Mana capacity, and they also couldn't keep on absorbing Pure Mana if they have already reached their Mana capacity.

Leo stared at the numerous stack of Magic circles in his hand as he thought, "Maybe this isn't just any ordinary Magic circles, but a Mana storage!"

Thinking about such a thought, Leo quickly observes each of the Magic circles. Just like what he had expected. All the Magic circles on his hand contain all the Pure Mana from the first Mana stone.

"Ohhh!" Leo finally realized something.

If the numerous stack of Magic circles were really like Mana storage, then the solution to this is simple; just digest all the Pure Mana!

After realizing such an idea, Leo quickly began digesting all the Pure Mana from all the Magic circles. Starting from the very top of his right hand to the very last, which is the magic circle on his palm. As time goes on, the numerous stack of Magic circles was slowly fading away, until finally turning back into the transparent state again.

Opening his eyes, Leo was finally able to digest all the Pure Mana that his right palm had absorbed. He finally realized how it works!

"Without the Red Cube, I will only be absorbing the Pure Mana from the Mana stone in a very slow state. The same rate as to how I had been absorbing the small light blue colored Mana stone from before. However, since I already merged with the Red Cube, it surprisingly helped me absorbed all the Pure Mana from the Mana stones, refine it to my compatibility, and then allow me to easily digest the Pure Mana to my own body!"

It was simply Heaven's Gift!

Leo can't help but silently laugh inwardly at his newly discovered ability. With the new ability that was given by the Red Cube, becoming strong would be a lot easier compared to before.

"Let's continue absorbing!"

Leo spends his whole evening absorbing the large Mana stones. Finally, when the light from the sun hit his body, he slowly opened his eyes as he was finally finished absorbing all the six large Mana stones.

Slowly, Leo stood up, did some light stretching, before finally walking to the kitchen to eat his breakfast. Unexpectedly though, despite not sleeping for the whole evening, he was actually still not feeling sleepy or tired at all. In fact, he feels so energetic at this moment. He even thought that maybe he can run around the whole Silver city for a few laps before finally getting tired. It was just an imagination, though. But he was really sure that he is full of energy at this moment.

Moreover, Leo had realized that his Mana capacity has also increased after he finished absorbing all the large Mana stones.

A while ago, Leo had actually tried to absorb Pure Mana before converting it into an Element Mana, specifically at that time when he was going to start absorbing the fifth Mana stone. He was curious about his development. And it was at that time that he realized that he was actually able to absorb more Pure Mana than before. Moreover, he was finally able to form up to the stomach of his Fire Elemental in his consciousness. Though he was still unable to really complete the whole Elemental, it was still a huge development.

Unfortunately, though, Leo had also realized that he actually needed more Mana stones to be promoted to a higher level compared to the others. He had felt before when he was digesting the six large Mana stones that he was like pouring a small amount of Pure Mana to a seemingly endless well.

This 'Well' was actually what teacher Marvin had taught to them before, calling it a bottle or the likes. He explained that every mage needed to fill up this bottle in order to reach a higher level of being a Mage. Unfortunately, though, Leo's wasn't a bottle at all, like what teacher Marvin had said. It was a well, a seemingly endless well.

It was a really depressing thought, Leo was able to absorb Pure Mana quickly, but he, in exchange, needed more Mana stones to reach the next level.

"Fortune is always followed by misfortune."

But it was fine though, it was just a little setback. If he needed more Mana stones, then he will just buy more Mana stones. Not a big deal.. Moreover, he had the assistance of Sword and Magic anyway, hence earning more points to buy Mana stones would be an easy task.
