[Adam looking at the mage book and thinking for something.]
The downside of the parasite magic is the mana lost and can't gain back. Doing it may cause me to go back to first circle if not careful, [going through the pages.] So I need something that can help decrease or at least prevent that.
[Suddenly, he lands on a page.]
Making a grimoire, mhmm.
Mostly used by witches documenting spells and there recipes for potions, it can be used as a catalyst for mana. Storing and if made by a talented witch, can generate it's own mana for the master. Beware, for this can communicate with entities beyond our world, telling lies and offers to summon them here. Be with a strong heart and mind young witch when handling this creation.
Mana generating book, this is something to create, but if I want to make it some of the materials are hard to nearly impossible to get at this moment, [sees something very intriguing.] With this though, I can make something similar.
***
Next day Adam went outside and beyond carrying stuff in his bag, looking for an animal. As he went on searching he saw something that should be in the labyrinth. Something escaped it, a ghoul.
***
This is a find. Seems it got out even when guards there, meaning, [as he to create mana spikes, causing the ghoul to dissappear for a second and appearing aiming at his neck. This though Adam dodges rolling down and only getting a scratch.] A variant type ghoul, ah, this is a find in every way.
***
Adam launches the spikes, some being dodged but one landing on his shoulder. The ghoul coming at him charging aiming at his head forcing him to duck and hit him with a mana blast to his chest sending it flying and hitting a tree. Adam makes a mana hand blade charging and cuts his head of along with the tree. He retracts his mana.
***
This wasn't hard if my enemy is brainless. [Squating and enters his hand through the chest,] now let me see what you got.
[He pulls out a mana core, redish black in colour. ]
I got more than what I need, [standing up,] still need that wolf heart though. Can't let this chance run out on me.
[In three hours he finds the wolf, killing it and taking its heart. He journeys to a cave were no-one will disturb him and starts his work.]
Usually, only spells can be used if you have that affinity to that element, [drawing a Sigil,] some don't need it, like demon summoning, the liche ritual and making an artificial spirit.
[His done making it.]
But by playing with it like a code I can change the outcome to what happens. Taking the liche ritual changing it to take a tiny piece of soul, making a spirit husk with artifical spirit works and if luck is on my side, summon a lesser demon, which still needs a heart of a beast and the heart of innocence. Can't say I cared for a street child on Death's door, may he rest in piece though.
[Taking off his clothes and pulling out two jars, on of the wolf and the other for the girl.]
Now let's see if I can that demon to appear.
***
He starts the demon summoning, calling forth forces from the demon realm. Strong wild wind start to appear in the cave. Small laughter can be heard all over, swirling mana appear at the center of the circle and a horned being, multiple eyes with four arms, body of a horse and eight legs. He was a demon.
***
"Would you look at that, a small human child has summoned me."
"Yea, and it did work. [Picking up his robes,] say what rank would you be, honest question."
[Angrily snarling.] "How dare you talk like that to me, though I may not bare a name, I work for velmira, and elite demon that work for the great Prince of greed."
"From the greed legion, kinda ironic don't you think so."
"Why do you think so child?"
"Cause I'm going to be taking your power my friend."
[Suddenly the Sigil glows bright red and starts to strip the demon soul from it's body from him. It starts to yell in agony and pain.]
"You know, demons works exactly to mana, though the difference, that is were it's from. Your basically mana itself, meaning your living."
"Maybe even holy energy might work the same way, but you know, cant find a book that can summon an angel."
"So if I go with that theory if a demon is summoned gaining a physical form, stripped from it leaving me two parts, it might bring me to a conclusion."
[The demon still screaming and trying to reach Adam.]
"But I read something very interesting, demons can be replenish energy by themselves away from your realm. Meaning it either has absorbing properties, natural regeneration or there is something special about you souls, your demon spirits. "
[The demon body falls and the floating spirit is held by chains unable to move. Adam looks at what the demon was.]
"Now, let's make what I came here for."
***
Adam using himself turns the demon body to the original demon mana properly, black and looks like tar,. Using himself to filter all the disgust out leaving pure demon mana, redish golden in colour. He pulls out a brand new book and with creating an artificial spirit husk using the book, taking the piece of his soul into it and adding the pure demon mana, he created a miniature spirit of himself, glowing red eyes, purple cut on its forehead and redish gold body. It enters the book. Then he pulls out the monster core.
***
"You know, was originally going to try my luck and force your soul into the book, maybe the spirit might devour you, but now, [as he activates the Sigil and start to force the demon's soul into the core.] I got something better."
[As the soul forcefully enters, the wails loud as it feels its losing what makes it a demon.]
"This should be destroying your one's self, only need the soul that won't fight back."
[The process ends and the core turns white. He places it on the top of the book and it sticks. It starts to generate, absorb and create mana by itself.]
"This is a masterpiece of my creation. I'll can you MERLIN."
