Chapter 151: Teal powder
Only once he finished the earth mage too did Percy finally allow his weapon to regain its colour, a scythe of glowing teal appearing in his hand.
Ever since he first mastered Crystallization, he’d naturally tried applying it to other affinities. Sadly, whether it was his own soul mana, or Gabe’s fire and air mana, the spell had never worked with anything else.
With one exception.
Like most of Percy’s spells, it worked seamlessly with his fused mana, as it was indistinguishable from pure mana in its corporeal state. That said, the teal powder hadn’t been particularly useful before now. The first thing he had tried was to brew elixirs with it, only to end up giving the Aurora Dew a slightly different colour. It hadn’t altered its effect, however, rendering the extra effort pointless.
Luckily, this all changed a few months ago, upon his spell’s evolution to Reinforcement. Following Sengo’s teachings, Percy could strengthen his cyan constructs with the corresponding powder, so there was no reason why he couldn’t do the same with the teal constructs. That way, he’d have tougher weapons without losing the fused mana’s versatility.
But he didn’t stop there.
‘This worked better than expected…’ he grinned, tracing his fingers along the scythe’s surface.
The edge was as sharp as a katana’s, but that wasn’t what he was focusing on. Instead, he felt the grooves and curves of the embroidered symbols along its length. They covered the weapon from tip to tip, from the crescent blade all the way to the bottom of its shaft.
Naturally, these were all concealment runes!
