….

The Magus Tower is the pride and love of may Magus.

For many average Magi, they would be extremely proud of just constricting a single-elemental energy particle pool, and for that they would need to save up for over hundreds of years.

However, Leylin had basically constructed energy particle pools of various elements, and even made two pools for each element. His demand for materials and quality was extremely stringent.

This terrifying consumption was enough for Many Rank 3 to want to faint.

This was not all. Not taking into consideration the tower itself and the spell formations for each level, it was the intellectual core that Leylin was planning to make, one using a Domore Crystal and a fourth-grade magic scroll that could give the crystal life.

A fourth-grade magic scroll was not something that could be bought with magic crystals. If not for Leylin’s status as Gilbert’s student, he might not have even found a way to obtain it. Even though Leylin gained a lot of rare items from Beast World unfortunately this wasn’t one of them.

With a tower genie, all the defences of the tower would coordinate with each other. This intellectual being that would only recognise one master would be a great helper for a Magus.

Although Leylin was extremely rich, he cannot get something which is simply out of his reach. He knows that these things could only be procured through connection and contribution, otherwise he has to pay an extremely extravagant price, that is if he could get any.

After all these resources and materials were brought out, Kubler believed that this Magus Tower would not be unpresentable even for a Morning Star Magus to live in.

Leylin was lucky since Robin was helpful enough to provide many channels for supplies. Even still Leylin could see that there is something’s such like the fourth-grade magic scroll that he could only get through contribution.

But this wasn’t a problem to Leylin because in addition to being a powerhouse Magus, he is also a rather achieved Potion Grandmaster. He also has various potion formulas which could send waves throughout the organization. Of course, he won’t reveal all his cards but contributing to a degree is still acceptable.

Potions Grandmasters were rare in the south coast, and at that time, Leylin was only a rank 1 Magus. Thus, he needed to avoid doing things that would leak his secret and lead to trouble.

But the central continent posed no such problems. Even the Ouroboros Clan alone housed a few reputable Grandmasters, not to mention the entire continent.

Furthermore, Leylin had already become a rank 3 Warlock, and his strength now was leagues ahead of what it was before. With Gilbert as his back-up, he had no cause for fear. Thus, it wasn’t much of a problem to reveal a bit of his prowess in the field.

It was still important to keep it a secret on the whole. Leylin’s Potioneering ability was honed over many years especially with the new experiment in the Beast World, It is truly correct of a statement to say that any piece of new power system is a mine of resources and new knowledge. Leylin by personal tests and A.I. Chip simulations has gain mastery in the field by bounds and leaps. In addition to the Chip’s assistance during the act itself, he’d reached a level of skill that bordered or even somewhat surpassed that of the most respected Potions Grandmasters, a mysterious and unfathomable realm.

But it was unnecessary to show his complete prowess. On top of that, through Potioneering, he could get hold of the majority of the recipes from the central continent for free. Moreover, most were exclusive, and would contribute greatly to Leylin’s database.

Leylin hoped from the bottom of his heart that, after acquiring all the information the central continent had with regards to Potioneering, he will have a breakthrough in his skill and finally reach greater mastery level.

Leylin has the trump card of Basilisk Blood Breath Potion which would spread like wildfire once released, even if Leylin doesn’t release the Potion Formula for the Third stage which is only applicable for him. The Second Stage Basilisk Blood Breath Potion could easily overshadowed the current top level spiritual force growth potion and the minimum effect on the bloodline purification would cause an uproar. Leylin has already checked that although the clan has some expensive potion similar to this, but none of them either has more potency or overall effect.

This potion would trigger the interest of each and every bloodline clan in the organization because of its effect on even the Rank 3 Warlock.

Leylin is sure that after contributing this formula he would have enough credits to ask for fourth-grade magic scroll. And more importantly potioneering of this particular recipe is extremely difficult and even almost impossible without the assistance of A. I. Chip. Only the most revered Grandmaster could have a somewhat acceptable success rate. Otherwise the cost would outgrow the gains and would be a final failure.

But even if it’s hard to make, the undisputed fact is the amazing ability this possess. If Leylin were to refine and sell this potion, then the amount of magical crystals he could gain is just gigantic.

Inside the ouroborus clan headquarters, The innermost region of the villa alloted to Leylin and his company.

“Are you sure?” In the laboratory, where Leylin conduct his temporary experiment was sitting. He has put his current work on hold as he sat on his chair in a loosely worn robe, with an amusing expression.

Before him was Lita, who looked at with a determined and unwavering gaze, “Yes, I have thought it through. I really want this,” Lita bowed her head almost touching the floor, “Please help me!”

Leylin could feel that everyone of his subordinates have vacated the area so, that they can talk in silence. This seems that everyone of his people has a rather good relationship.

Leylin stared at her for a second and a smile broke on his face. He mused for a second standing up and walked near her, Lita kept her head down listening to, only the tapping of his foot on the floor.

“You have made your mind right? If that’s the case then, sure I can fulfill this request of yours, but I need to know about your dedication to this path so, in order to satiate my interests you have to destroy your spirit realm.” Leylin spoke coldly.

Lita shuddered listening to his words, she looked up at his stern face and stay rooted on the spot, after a moment she nodded with firmness. What Lita asked of Leylin is to change her bloodline and allow her to become a Warlock like Leylin.

Lita after some time of being here was able to understand some things about the dynamic of the Magus World, and being fascinated to no end she eventually tested her aptitude in the magic which turned out to be the best, 5th Grade Aptitude. This surprised even Leylin since the only reason he brought her with him was— just cause he wanted.

It was something he did on a whim, he didn’t care much about anything else. To him, as long as it’s something that he desires and it could be done without trouble Leylin would do it.

What is the meaning of strength if he cannot enjoy being himself. To Leylin the most important thing is to stay honest to his ideals which is, simply just doing whatever he wants, wherever he wants and yeah, to whoever he pleases.

Although his arrogance has toned down, his character will remain the same. However flawed it may be.

For Lita, after understanding her talent. Her desire to trend on this path kindled, and her profession as a teacher and nature of seeking truth only further blazed her intent.

Leylin found this amusing and asked her to wait, because he knows that later on he could get various great bloodline like the Red Dragon bloodline from the Kobolds tribe. But Lita requested to be changed into a Giant Kemoyin Serpent Warlock even after the prior warning about the side effects, she didn’t retreated. Her mind was made and regardless of the obstacles she wanted to become a Giant Kemoyin Serpent Warlock.

Leylin could definitely suppress her nonsense and order her to follow his arrangements but he believes that she has a say in her future path since, she is not a mere slave. After warning her, Leylin decided to fulfill her request but in return he asked her to sacrifice her previous cultivation. This is not only because of the future problem that may arise in the foresight but also a test to check her character.

Lita didn’t hesitate any longer and sat cross-legged closing her eyes. She withdraw a spirit core of dense spirit aura emitting from it. It’s undulation covered the room as a heavy presence could be felt. Leylin raised his eyes brown because he understood what she is going to do.

There is various ways to destroy someone cultivation, most simple being the puncturing of the spirit realm but what Lita choose was the most ruthless and painful method of over flowing it with high amount of Spirit Aura. This is next to impossible to remedy.

Leylin looked at her but didn’t stop her, this is a shame actually but it’s about firmness and the length she is willing to take to get what she wants. This ruthlessness is what one need to become a Magus.

*Boom* Lita started to ram her spirit realm with the copious amount of spirit force and it started to rip little by little. Lita has a very firm foundation but sadly this isn’t a good thing when one do something like what she is doing. Her good foundation only further aggravate her already unbearable pain.

“Ahhhhh!! ” Soon Lita began to thrash around, wailing and shouting as the pain which she has never felt before destroyed her realm bit by bit. The soul ripping made her wish as if she was dead, as thoughts of giving up emerged in her mind and she gritted her teeth. Her consciousness was slowly fading as she looked at the still and unmoving Leylin across the room. Leylin was standing still looking at her with indifference but Lita knew that if he really didn’t care Leylin would have returned to his experiment but seeing how intently he was looking at her, Lita felt sweet inside and a wave of determination washed her doubts.

Lita clenched her teeth harder almost grinding them and let herself feel the torturous pain. After 10 minutes or so she reached her limit as her realm exploded finally and she returned to being just an average human. She lied on the cold floor without being able to move at the brink of her consciousness.

Lita saw that Leylin suddenly appeared near her and threw some spells at her. He was touching her and kept sending wave of warm and comforting energy reliving her pain. Leylin proceeded to hand her a potion but she wasn’t able to move so, he fed her the healing potion. After this Lita descended into blackness as she felt asleep. The unimaginable pain immediately followed by the relive of being in Leylin’s warm embrace spent her both mentally and physically.

…..

“Wake Up! ” A stern commanding voice sounded as a beautiful dark colored woman was startled awake.

Lita looked at the room and then at leylin. After thinking about what happened she bowed her head and tears started to weel up in her eyes, “I am sorry, I wasted your time. I wasn’t good enough.”

Leylin looked at her, it has been 2 hours since she fainted. Leylin was going to let her rest but he thought this was the best time to begin the bloodline transplantation so, he woke her after her conditions stabilized.

“You weren’t actually extremely extraordinary but… You passed. Here!” Leylin touched her head as something seems to inject itself in her sea of consciousness. After her spirit realm crumbled, Leylin helped her to construct a sea of consciousness as it could use the crumbled force energy to draw from. It wouldn’t have any side effects since, it’s already a part of him. Currently she is almost at the Level 3 Acolyte. Although her energy was good enough to take her to Rank 2 but it would cause unreconcileable outcomes.

[Beep! A. I. Chip initiating… Beep! System initiated! Welcome host Lita Raiz! ]

“Eh!” Lita was startled as she heard the weird cold monotonous voice in her mind. She looked at Leylin for answer.

“All the answer you want, you can ask from the chip. It would explain everything. Consider this as my gift to you. There is also the Kemoyin Pupils meditation techniques with some other important data, records, books, manuals, experiment log etc inside. Now, all you need is the blood essence of the Kemoyin serpent.” Leylin explained as he spread his hands open.

*Woosh*

A gale formed as a drop of gem-like intoxicating and shining blood drop emerged on his palm. This the the Kemoyin serpent blood extracted from him. This blood is extremely pure as it is the pure blood essence of Leylin being at Crystal Phase Rank 3 Warlock. With the amount of purification it has been through you might as well consider it as being the real deal.

“This will take some time, but with the energy inside the Kemoyin blood you can easily breakthrough to Rank 2 in just a few months. This blood is extremely mature and you only have to make it your own. This is something only you can help yourself succeed in.” Leylin reminded as he shoved the blood into her beginning the process.

“Hissssss!”

3 years later.

Leylin was in his manor in the Ouroboros Clan headquarters. Because of the many people and slaves in the region, the manor was not as empty as it once was. Once it had started functioning properly, clean-cut slaves and coquettish maids were walking about everywhere.

There were even some acolytes mixed into this sea of people.

Leylin had gathered all the gifted people in his territory and brought them here. He normally left his Warlock and subordinate vassals to guide them, and almost never came out to teach himself.

This arrangement of Leylin wasn’t well received in the beginning by the acolytes but they later on found that Leylin subordinates are extremely good at guiding. Lancy was very talented in teaching the basics, Anna was adept in warcraft, Cole and Roderick were top grade advisor in physical combat and Lita being a teacher was the best overall.

All the acolytes were very satisfied and stayed on for the opportunity to study under them. Sadly, these guys only taught few classes in the beginning and they stopped guiding them, since Leylin’s subordinates main goal was only to serve Leylin.

Even still, some of the acolytes and Magi specially moved to his territory.

Inside the specialized living area, Leylin was conversing with Robin.

“Honestly speaking, Leylin, your Potioneering ability has greatly surprised me and not only me but the whole clan!” Robin was playing with the test tube in his hand. The blood red liquid inside rippled and pulsed through his hands.

Leylin had granted himself both wealth and fame through the selling of potions and Potioneering for his clan members over the last three years. His Basilisk Blood Breath Potion was extremely well received and it caused a commotion as Leylin predicated.

The number of high-ranking Magi and Magi of affiliated clans seeking for Leylin’s Potioneering had been on a steady increase. This is because he was one of the only few people who could create this amazing potion.

And Leylin wouldn’t reject their offers most of the time. The other Potions Grandmasters had already filled their schedules with requests and were unable to take on any more requests. This gave Leylin a huge influx of customer, he only needed to buckle up once in a month or so and he would make a fortune.

Precisely because of this, Leylin was able to come across the recipes for a large number of rare potions, which added to his Chip’s database as well as his own skill.

“It’s nothing much, just a side intrest of mine which isn’t half bad.” Leylin laughed weakly, his eyes and expression extremely sincere.

“I have to mention that it’s more than impressive for you to keep up with your meditation technique while making vast improvements in your Potioneering skills!” Robin looked closely at Leylin, “Your Blood purity seems to have made some improvement.”

“Its all because of Teacher’s guidance!” Leylin nodded. Leylin has gained a lot of contribution points so far and since he was already a Crystal Phase magi, he didn’t need to waste his time in spiritual force potions. Even still he needed a huge amount of them to buy a fourth-grade magic scroll for the Magus Tower.

Although Ouroboros Clan allowed one to exchange magic crystals for contribution points, but there were some considerations that led to Leylin not considering that path. One of them was a fixed limit on the number of crystals a Magus could trade for.

“There is something I have been working on and I would like to donate it to the clan! Help me do an appraisal!” Leylin chuckled as he handed a folder to Robin. This was of a tranquility potion which was created through the specimen data collected by Lancy in Twilight Zone. Of course, what he offered the guild was the rudimentary version that was not based primarily on the Icy Scorpion’s Breath. But it still proved relatively impressive in repressing the emotions of high-rank Warlocks

After skimming through, Robin lifted his brows and looked back at Leylin, straightening his back in astonishment. “You… You actually want to bestow your high-grade potion of tranquility to the clan?”

The emotional instability of high-rank Warlocks was quite obvious. Although there were some methods and potions to control them circulated inside the Ouroboros Clan, the Magi could never have enough.

As long as the root of this problem was not dealt with, such medicine would always be in high demand. In the past three years, although Leylin has never needed this but he still studied about it. Thinking that it could reap him lots of benefits later on and it seems it would.

“Of course!” Leylin laughed as he shook his head. In fact, he could actually keep the formula and only sell the potion to customers but he did not have the time to concoct and sell potions of tranquility for money. Furthermore, this was an advanced potion! Normal Potions Masters would not be able to achieve a high success rate at concocting it. It would still be easy for him to return to the business to earn contribution points if he wished.

“Just this alone is worth around 25,000 contribution points. Looking at you now, it doesn’t seem like you lack points!” Robin laughed bitterly.

“I wish! Creating a Magus tower is extremely extravagant and it’s really squeezing me out!” Even as he said this, Leylin slyly lifted the corners of his mouth, making Robin feel a little closer to him.

“Oh! You won’t be able to support your Magus Tower’s construction much longer, will you?” Robin’s expression changed into one of understanding, and Leylin just chuckled bitterly.

The construction of Leylin’s tower was more or less done over the part three years and now it was mostly down to the detailing and decoration of each floor.

And Leylin’s expectations were exceptionally high. The materials selected were practically the most premium ones and the resources exhausted were comparable to a chain of mountains.

To be honest, Leylin’s weath was enough to sustain the following add-ons to his tower but he didn’t want to be completely transparent. So the facade of a poverty-stricken individual was absolutely necessary.

“Ah… Leylin, I told you so! Why did you not set your standards lower back then during the planning process, or build it here at the headquarters directly? It wouldn’t have resulted in this situation then!” Robin consoled.

“No!” Leylin shook his head with a resolute tone.

“Magus tower is a matter of pride, I have always wanted one and if I am creating it, it should be done with the best of my ability. I would rather not have one than to be stuck with an unsatisfactory Magus tower which would only serve to agitate me.”

“Makes sense. But it is still unwise to use up all your resources for it! I almost prostituted myself when I was building my mine, even with my family and the clan’s resource….” Robin pummeled his chest, fear lingering in his voice.

Leylin could only roll his eyes at the near-promiscuous flashback as Robin moved on to the main concern.
