Chapter 91: Griffin’s Bizarre Encounter
Eight hours later, Kaiju opened his eyelids slowly. His eyes slowly regained clarity. Without even asking the Gacha System to show the current status of his mana points, he was already astonished. After all, just in eight hours straight of meditating with the Stone Of Tranquility, his mana points increased at the astonishing five mana points!
Kaiju could still recall how difficult to increase even a mana point by meditating the whole day. There were many factors about it–he lacked concentration, his visualization was easily broken for some reason, and it would escalate if he became frustrated. His mana core has obviously become more demanding. The absorption rate didn’t improve, resulting in not adapting with the growing gluttonous mana core.
"How unbelievable. If only I had many of these, it might not be possible to max my mana points before the fateful day."
"I unfortunately don’t have that many, Kaiju," said Lucy over the distance in a depressing tone. With her heightened senses, she obviously heard what Kaiju had mumbled. In addition, she can amplify her voice with her mana, causing her normal voice to be reached even at such a distance.
Kaiju was startled, then found Lucy sitting on a branch from afar with her head lowered. It appeared she felt guilty for not providing Kaiju enough of Stone of Tranquility, while he gave him the earrings, obviously more valuable than her gift.
Kaiju chuckled. "You are overthinking. It is obviously difficult for you to create those."
Lucy heaved a sigh of relief and said, "You are right. In fact, I have to exhaust my mana points two times to create it. These are the spare after I maxed out my mana points."
"You have maxed out your mana points?" Kaiju was in disbelief.
Lucy felt flattered. She scratched her cheeks awkwardly. "Y-Yes."
