BXBX NOVEL Chapter 818: Rank 4 Abyssal Prime 3
Chapter 818: Rank 4 Abyssal Prime 3
Draco almost went dizzy from the sheer amount of walls of text in his face, along with the various changes to his equipment. He pondered with a frown as to why his equipment like the Dragorugio set, the Heart of the Woods and the Fire of War had not been upgraded. After all, these were fusion items, and they were supposed to grow exponentially stronger along with the user at each Rank.｢Mage God (Rank 4) – Special Rank
Able to use Subjective Magic without limits. Opens the willpower and concentration stats. Spells cost 30% --> 40% fewer resources to cast. This Special Rank title is always equipped without occupying a slot.｣
Once Draco began practicing his spells and the various elements, he realized that a big change had occurred in the scope of this power.
At Rank 2, it had granted him the ability to imbue the most basic applications of the pinnacle elements into his spells and techniques!
At Rank 3, he could use advanced applications of the pinnacle element in various spells and combinations!
But all of this was through Worldly Energy only, if he only used the Cause and Effect Theory.
Now at Rank 4, he could power spells with Aetheric Wnergy as long as it was available!
This might now excite an onlooker much given his 100% bloodline, but it excited Draco. Because even with 100% bloodline, he COULD NOT use magic on Earth. But if Worldly Energy was released, he could easily use Subjective Magic on earth and even teach ANYONE to do so.
So the farther he progressed and documented the changes and strengths, the better he could train newbies in this field. He could have his people adept in Control and allow them to use magic, as well as teach them cultivation if they could return Spirit Energy to Earth as well.
The future was fucking bright!
Draco documented his changes mentally, once again
(Author\'s Note, I do this every time for Subjective Magic so that you nerds can measure the changes at each level. All applications mentioned here are through Cause and Effect Theory only. When he uses VoP or Bloodline to add, it becomes different.)
To make it easier on himself, Draco split it into hard categories.
First, there were roughly four types of spells, Offensive, Defensive, Support and Curses. Then under those, were the elements, Normal, Rare and Pinnacle. Then under that was the types of casting, single cast, double cast and triple cast. Further under that were the kinds of spells, which were Basic, Advanced and Ultimate.
Pinnacle elements included Gravity, Space, Time, Order, Chaos.
Rare elements included Lightning, Light, Dark, and Poison.
Normal elements were the basic Fire, Water, Wind, and Earth.
Examples of spells for each type;
Offensive Normal Element (Basic): Fireball, Water Gun, Wind Blade and Earth Spike.
Offensive Normal Element (Advanced): Flamepillar, Water Cannon, Wind Blast and Earth Crush.

And then, there were his changes when he officially reached Rank 4. Whew, the depth of them were something he was still trying to digest even now, for it was quite crazy if you thought about it deeply.
First things first, everything had not doubled, no. Everything had been boosted by ten times!
This was not unlocked by adding Aetheric Energy, but by still using Worldly Energy. If he switched to the higher type of energy, the boost would increase to 50 times! Fifty fucking times!
Can you imagine a simple fireball going from the size of a basket ball at Rank 1, to the size of a basketball hoop at Rank 2, to the size of a large basin at Rank 3 and then finally to the size of a small salon car at Rank 4?
Then, when imbued with Aetheric Energy, it could now balloon to the size of a small barn. Just the explosive might of the fireball when it crashed was enough to mimic a large warhead missile, okay?
Suddenly, Draco remembered something. He remembered when Richmond first tempted him with the study of Subjective Magic, he created a fireball and inflated it until it became the size of Frieza\'s Planet Vegeta destroying death ball, then fired it into the sky.
It had alarmed so many residents of the Noble Estate of Cario City back then. Richmond even gave that flame life through the imbuing of Aetheric Energy at the end.
Speaking of that, could Aetheric Energy give life? Draco remembered that when he used to use Aether Crystals to craft and create enchantments, an apparition would form that was life-like and would always try to attack him before being absorbed.
He had ruled it off as a special game mechanic, but then the one time he had crafted it in front of Vitae, the apparition had seemed scared of him, not even daring to fart. Vitae was a being made through Draco\'s DNA and Aetheric Energy from the then Aether Castle.
Could there be a connection…?
Draco felt like if he could understand this, his abilities in so many areas, from combat, to crafting would get a supreme power up. This property of Aetheric Energy seemed to be the key to possibly mastering the Grandmaster stage. If he could grasp it, he could become Grandmaster in ANY and ALL Tradeskills he practiced in time.
He also realized that in his quest for power, he had neglected his Tradeskills. Then again, it wasn\'t his fault, he had been thoroughly burned out after the Treasury and didn\'t even want to look at Tradeskills. It was only Refinement he couldn\'t avoid because of its importance and its difficulty.
Now, he could invest time into Tradeskills again. Especially Dungeon Creation and Skill Fusion, those two Legendary Tradeskills had incredibly potent uses.
On the topic of Refinement, Draco knew that he could easily fulfill Norma\'s requirements using his bloodline alone. He no longer needed to rack his brains and find other means, nor use all his methods one by one.
His bloodline capabilities alone were enough to easily meet the 5 folds past perfection condition to unlock the next stage. As such, Draco also had to put time aside in the next few days to work on this and reach the next stage.
However, that was for later. Like the previous few Ranks, Draco also created a category table for the Rank 4 benefits of being a Mage God.
