1347 Continue to train
"This doesn't make any sense...
How is the strength of your spell increasing when your Mastery level is still the same?"
Faustina questioned with a dumbfounded look on her face.
She knew Nux was a monstrous existence that couldn't be defined by common sense, however... Common Sense wasn't something she operated with either.
This wasn't her first time seeing a man with monstrous potential, she had seen a man far more monstrous than him. Faustina was already numb to things that defied common sense and strength that was far more absurd than anyone could imagine, This, however...
This was something she couldn't comprehend.
"This is the problem, no matter how hard I try to master the Skill, even if I do make improvements in it, my Mastery Level never rises, it is as if the Assimilation Stage doesn't exist for me."
Nux shared the problem with a frown on his face.
"Or maybe..."
Vyriana, however, had another idea,
"Maybe the threshold to reach the Assimilation Stage is much higher than normal cultivators."
The Dragon then glanced at Nux and,
"Even if your Mastery Level isn't improving, your strength is still improving, isn't it? Continue doing it till you can, who knows? You might create an ultimate spell that is not only easy to use in a battle but also has a deadly destructive strength."
Nux's eyes shined as he heard Vyriana's words, it was clear that he liked the idea, Faustina, however, was quick to shake her head.
"It will not work."
"What do you mean?"
Vyriana narrowed her eyes.
"Did you not see? The rate at which the strength of his Spell is improving is decreasing." Faustina pointed out.
Vyriana narrowed her eyes and Faustina continued,
"There is a limit to how much you can strengthen a Spell, especially a 1 Star Spell.
After all, there is only so much damage a simple Fireball can do."
"Isn't that what we want though?" Vyriana countered.
"Reaching that threshold, the limit to what the spell can be improved to, once we reach that, wouldn't we reach the Assimilation Stage?"
Faustina turned silent.
She wasn't the expert in the field, well, no one was because this was the first time something like this had happened.
Mastery Levels worked on different principals,
Taking the Fireball Spell for example,
As one learns more about the Spell, he can improve his spell, correct his previous mistakes, and increase the output.
The more he learns about it, the higher the Mastery Level of the Spell becomes.
And the Perfected Stage is the Stage where one completely masters the spell as it was intended to. The one who has reached the Perfected Stage has the same level of knowledge about the Spell as the creator of the Spell.
One cannot raise the strength of the Spell by learning more about the Spell since he already knows everything about it.
Unless...
He becomes One with the Spell and that is the Assimilation Stage, understanding the Impact the Spell has on the universe and comprehending that Impact before altering it with one's own understanding and improving the spell even further.
Nux's case, however, was completely different.
He obviously didn't comprehend the Impact of the Spell and... neither was he learning anything new about the Spell, his understanding of it was already perfect.
For him, the Spell was simply improving as he was casting it again and again.
It was similar to how his Adaptation Ability because of his Human Blood worked, how his body got used to his enemies and improved further to deal with them. Faustina also wondered if this was indeed the effect of the Progenitor's Blood Nux had received.
She, however, was quick to reject that possibility.
Yes, she has already noticed that the Progenitor's Blood works differently in Nux's case. For some reason, his Adaptation speed is similar to theirs when he only has a drop of their Blood. It was absurd, however, considering what sort of monster she was dealing with, she decided to stay silent and make sense of things after doing her own research.
As for the possibility of the Blood being the reason why the spell's strength was increasing continuously, well, that was not possible because the Human Blood's adaptation is not permanent.
Just like how Nux's strength returns to normal after the fight stops, the Spell's strength should return to normal as well, which clearly was not the case here.
"We can try out that possibility of reaching the threshold..." Faustina muttered, agreeing to Vyriana's words after thinking about it.
Vyriana nodded as well, turning towards Nux.
"So what do you want me to do?"
Nux questioned innocently.
Honestly, it was a great thing that he had these two women with him because right now, no one was more confused about his Body's Stage than him.
He tried checking the thing he relied on the most, the System, however, wasn't very helpful in this case.
[Name: Nux Leander.]
[Age: 265]
[Cultivation: Semi Saint]
[Race: Human (???) ]
[Physique: Devouring Mist Demon Physique ??? Mastered (+)]
[LVL- 123-->139]
[Battle Power ???2,003,138 (2,054,188) (2,048,121) (2,160,342) (2,308,491) --> 3,423,123] [Potential ??????]
[Blank Points ???2150]
The entire interface made absolutely no sense, heck, half of the things were filled with question marks. Not that it was a new thing, he had long stopped believing the System's numbers and mostly relied on his senses that had been sharpened because of Essence.
However, even if he used Essence to try and understand what was happening inside his body, he couldn't find anything out of the ordinary.
Of course, the definition of 'ordinary' here was monstrous in its own way, right now, however, that didn't matter.
The fact was, Nux was still helpless.
His future path was still blurry.
"Continue to train your Skill for another 5 years, let's see how strong your spell can become." While Nux was thinking all this, the Dragon answered his question.
"So you want me to continue training till my strength is improving?"
"Exactly." Vyriana nodded.
"If I just need to increase my strength, shouldn't I simply break through and become a Saint?" Nux questioned, he still didn't understand why Vyriana wanted him to hold back.
