A blood drop moved out of Azriel's Body and started floating in the air, even under the intense suction of the Magic Circles that looked like they were about to devour not only the Mana, but any matter they find as well,
The Blood Drop continued to flow… elegantly?
Yes, there was a strange air of elegance around the Blood Drop, it was emitting strange energy.
The Magic Circles turned brighter, however, this time, unlike before, the suction force did not increase.
The blood drop then moved and started descending.
The lower it got, the more intensely the Magic Circles glowed.
*Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh*
This atmosphere around the room began to change as wind currents started flowing.
Azriel and Ithania's hair started blowing in the wind, Azriel's eyes then shined,
The Blood Drop descended and finally merged with the Magic Circles.
The Magic Circles shined brighter than ever.
*Thunder*
A thunderous roar of clouds was heard.
A weak smile appeared on Azriel's face.
The Magic Circles continued to shine brightly, however, this time, they weren't devouring anymore Mana.
Rather, it looked like they were releasing some Mana.
Seeing this, a small smile appeared on Azriel's face,
"Was that too much for you?"
As if hearing his words, the Circles shined even more brightly and soon, the Mana coming out of them stopped completely.
At the same time, Ithania was done sucking Azriel's blood and had lost consciousness.
Azriel picked her up and placed her beside Luminia.
He noticed that the Magic Circles has yet to disappear.
"Heh, it was indeed too much for you."
He chuckled.
The Magic circles continued to shine.
Azriel waited.
5 Minutes later, the Magic Circles' shine started fading away and soon, they disappeared.
Azriel then walked out of the room and looked at the Sky,
The Sky was red in color, with light red clouds spread all over the place, he couldn't see any lightning,
*Thunder*
Thunderous Roars were heard.
"You look happy."
Azriel smiled weakly as he glanced at the Sky.
"Well, I guess you have a reason to be happy."
Azriel shook his head.
Anyone who would look at him right now would think that he had lost his mind since he was talking to himself,
However, in truth, the one he was talking to was Yrniel.
After returning from the World's Core, he had learned many things that he didn't know before, yes, not even Azriel Origin knew about these things.
One of them was that this World, Yrniel, had a will of its own.
It couldn't interact with the denizens of Yrniel directly, however, it was still there, looking over everything.
It reacts to all the big events that might affect the entire Yrniel in the future.
The time when he, as Azriel Ruinous, drank Azriel Origin's Blood Essence and awakened his powers, or the time when he, as Azriel Origin, decided to end his life, Yrniel reacted in both situations.
Its reactions were different each time, however, it did react.
And just like that time, it reacted today again as well.
The Blood Drop that came out of Azriel's body was not a normal Blood Drop, that Drop contained some part of his essence,
The part of Azriel's Blood Essence merged with the Magic Circles, which were in turn connected to Yrniel.
It could be said that the part of Azriel's Blood Essence merged with Yrniel.
Will it affect Azriel?
Of course it will.
Blood Essence was not like normal blood that could be regenerated infinitely, Blood Essence is part of Azriel's Core.
Since Azriel sacrificed 5% of his Blood Essence to fill in for the Missing Mana, this 5% of Blood Essence will never be recovered.
Now what would happen in the future, how will this missing 5% affect Azriel and all that,
Well, Azriel didn't know the complete detail, however, he did know some things.
His Potential will be limited, the speed at which he regains his power will be slowed down, it might have more effects, however, Azriel wasn't sure.
Azriel then looked at his hand and clenched his fist.
"It is not as bad as I thought."
He muttered to himself.
It was bad, yes, however, if he can have both Ithania and Luminia in exchange for this, he was satisfied.
As for limited potential and slow speed,
Heh, things like these never bothered him in the first place.
This was his second time chasing the peak, the journey would be far easier than before.
Azriel was confident.
"What did you do?"
While Azriel was thinking all of this, someone appeared in front of him.
"Bertramus."
Azriel looked at the man who had appeared and called out.
The two of them looked at each other for a while then Azriel replied,
"I didn't do anything."
"Do you think you can fool me like that? Phenomenon like these doesn't happen so easily." Bertramus retorted while pointing at the red sky.
"And you are saying that I have the capability to cause this phenomenon? I didn't know you thought so highly of me." Azriel smiled.
"…" Bertramus turned silent.
A frown appeared on his face.
'That's correct, this boy doesn't have the capability to do something like this, then…
Then why did I assume he was responsible for all this…?'
Bertramus couldn't understand.
Azriel, who was observing his expression couldn't help but smile a little.
"What happened here?"
Bertramus changed his question.
"Well, I suddenly noticed that the Mana in the air was moving strangely, I rushed here to see what happened and saw a Golden Circle on the ground, that… thing was sucking all the Mana in the air. I couldn't understand what it was since I have never seen or read about that circle so I only observed from distance.
The circle continued to suck all the Mana, the Sky color suddenly changed, the clouds started roaring as well, this continued for a while then suddenly,
The circle disappeared."
Azriel explained and Bertramus looked at him with a stupefied look on his face.
'What the hell are you talking about?'
That was what his expression said.
"…"
Azriel didn't say anything either and just turned around.
"H-Hey! Where are you going!?"
