“Just like… me…?”

Lemi was dumbstruck by my statement—or at least she appeared to be.

More than just my words, but the fact that I was emitting both Mana and Miasma from my body—yet appeared completely unfazed by it—made both Elves look at me in wonder.

“H-how is that possible?”

“It shouldn’t be possible, right? Right?”

Ignorance was a terrible foe.

While it could be bliss at certain moments, there was no doubt that it robbed many of the right kind of perspective to achieve certain goals.

That was why I lived by the philosophy that nothing was impossible—at least when it came to Magic.

It gave me the right kind of mindset.

‘Just because it hasn’t been discovered yet doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist!’ That was the kind of perspective that brought me this far.

It was such a shame that many didn’t share the same line of thought as me.

“Well, it is. This right here is the perfected form of your condition, Lemi.”

That’s right! Her current situation was by no means an affliction.

It was a gift.

If I cultured it well, it would turn into an indispensable platform for growth.

‘I’m also curious about the results…’

Now drawing closer, only leaving barely an inch between us, I stared straight into Lemi’s eyes with a grin.

“So… do you want it? What I have?”

I could feel the feeling of superiority within her dissipate.

Her composure began wearing off one after the other, and then she sensibly gave in to the only hope before her.

“Y-yeah… I do. I want it.”

‘Good girl!’ My grin grew broader.

I turned to Aurora, who simply watched in stunned silence.

“We’ll begin the process now. It’s best if you wait behind the glass.”

The concerned Elf Queen looked hesitant to leave her precious niece with a human who was about to begin who knows what.

“W-will it be dangerous…?” Her concerns rang out.

“Yes. It will. But… I promise that I won’t hurt her.”

It was pretty obvious that the spoilt girl didn’t take to pain well. Her fragile body had barely undergone any training, and it was also degenerating as a result of the Miasma Poisoning.

I had to be careful if I wanted to pull things off successfully.

“Okay then. I’ll trust you.”

“Please do.”

As Aurora began moving toward the door, I looked at Lemi—who was fidgeting uncomfortably.

“Don’t worry…” I smiled, rubbing her black and white hair with my hand.

It felt weird doing this to a 400 Year Old Elf who was my daughter—but was technically older than me.

She didn’t seem to mind, though.

‘The spoilt girl must be used to being pampered.’

“… I’ll be gentle.”

Mana and Miasma

Contrasting forces that are never meant to be combined.

As they are opposite forms of energy, they repel each other and cause adverse effects on the body.

This imbalance is known as Poisoning—whether of Mana or Miasma.

However, just as it is possible for Mana to be corrupted by Miasma—as Demons usually do—it is also possible to overhelming Miasma with Mana.

None is superior to the other, and they are simply two sides of a coin—in this case, it would energy.

However, a loophole exists.

And that is balance.

In the situation where there is an even distribution of Mana and Miasma, down to the perfect decimal, there will be no resistance.

In fact, both energies will simply cause another reaction—Anti-magic.

But, rightly apportioning both energies is very difficult.

If one’s core isn’t capable of producing the two at equal quality and quantity—using the same wavelength—then an imbalance will occur.

That is why… when dealing with these two energy sources, it’s always good to first understand them.

Then, control the flow to generate a Core that contains both Energies with complete balance.

And then, once the Fused Core is made, just as with regular Mana Cores, it is possible to release both essences to generate its power.

It sounds quite complex in theory, but the principle isn’t very hard.

Once the balance is achieved, the next step is as natural as possible.

Then, for the challenge before me… only one solution presents itself.

‘I must achieve perfect balance!’

“A-ahhh…” Lemi let out a soft moan as I placed my hands on her bare back.

She must have felt the foreign energy of mine that penetrated her body and was now permeating it.

Even though I needed direct contact with her skin to freely achieve what I desired, there was no need for her to undress.

My palms simply burned through the clothing she wore and touched her from behind—leaving everything else she wore intact.

“A-ahhh.. ahhh…” More sounds came from her lips.

I remained silent, focusing on the task at hand.

Distractions were unnecessary at this juncture.

Forcefully resonating with the girl allowed me to gain access to her body, causing me to feel the strong Miasma that had deeply rooted itself into the corners of her being.

Her Mana Core was already shrouded with negative energy, and I could tell that the imbalance was severe.

‘Okay, let’s begin…’

What surrounded me was a big black space of Miasma.

Particles of Mana around—like stars—were fading away thanks to being corroded by the darkness.

And, the biggest light of all—Lemi’s Mana Core—was barely hanging on.

‘For a girl whose insides have been devastated this extensively… how can she be so energetic?’

Lemi must have been feeling immense discomfort and pains, yet she endured it.

‘She’s stronger than I gave her credit for…’ I sighed, feeling a bit bad for knocking her so mercilessly.

To be fair, I was holding back, but still…

‘Jared, focus!’ My senses returned to the surrounding darkness and lights.

‘Huuu… first things first!’

Now using my Miasma, I attracted the surrounding negative energy to myself.

They responded instantly—thanks to the influence of Spellcraft.

Upon attracting every ounce of the Miasma particles, I was able to free the dim lights from being corrupted by the Miasma.

With that, the rogue Miasma that was killing Lemi was now contained.

It wouldn’t have been possible without my ability to use Miasma, but, the solution was that simple.

However, this was only a start.

Even though the Miasma could be dispelled or absorbed by me if I desired it, I had a better idea.

‘Consider this a gift from me, Lemi.’ I grinned, looking at her Special Grade Mana Core.

It was brimming brighter than ever.

‘Time for phase two!’
