Because of its dual nature obsession happens to be one of the most sought-after attributes among those who practice their will. After all, as a buff, it increases the accumulation of the user's will and as a debuff, it erodes the will of the user's target. Will by itself can only act as a support but with the obsession attribute it can act as a mode of attack targeting the enemy's will. The ability to attack the other's will was very rare, making obsession attribute one of the must-have attributes for those training their will.

The most noteworthy function of the obsession attribute of the will other than the fact that it allowed the user to attack other's will was that its effects could be stacked. Making the obsession attribute of the will a one-of-a-kind attribute and appealing to the card apprentice who practiced their will. As awakening the attribute of one's will was not within the one's hand as will's attribute was their true nature. For one to have an obsession attribute they as card apprentices need to be obsessive enough to awaken it.

"Wyatt is waiting for me," Anna chanted and slammed her fist onto the mystic seal with all her might.

Every time Anna's fist landed on the mystic seal, apart from the damage it inflicted to the seal the Field Marshal saw a tiny part of her will latch onto the mystic seal. At first, Anna's will latching on to the seal was minute and benign. However, after Anna punched the mystic seal about another few dozen times the tiny part of Anna's will added up and spread across a large surface of the mystic seal.

As Anna's will latching on to the mystic seal grew it became more obvious that the obsession in her will was corroding the will of the mystic seal. It was corroding the immovable will of the mystic seal. The immovable will was what allowed the mystic seal to become the boulder blocking Anna's way out.

With every punch Anna's will's obsession to break and leave the mystic dimension was starting to slowly overpower the will of the mystic seal to remain as an obstacle blocking Anna from exiting the mystic dimension.

The obsession attribute of Anna's will allowed her to attack the will of the mystic seal. Turning her will that was supporting her by bringing her energies together into a rust eroding the will of the mystic seal. Being an inanimate object the mystic seal had no way to defend itself against Anna's obsession attribute. As such, soon, when the obsessive will of Anna had stacked enough, the will of the mystic seal was unable to withstand the obsessiveness of Anna's will and crumbled by itself.

As the mystic seal broke, the mystic rejuvenation blessing washed over Anna awakening her from her obsessive state. Having broken the mystic seal Anna did not celebrate because as the mystic seal crumbled another bigger and mightier mystic seal revealed itself blocking Anna's way out of the mystic dimension. If one were to describe it using words, reverse nesting dolls should be enough to paint the picture.

"Cheer up, will you. You finally managed to break through that mystic seal," the Field Marshal stepped in seeing Anna was getting depressed focusing on the never-ending mystic seals instead of the fact that she had not only managed to ignite her will but awaken her obsession attribute.

"Well, what's the point it is never-ending," Anna replied.

"You should be happy that it is never-ending. It shows that you have a lot of potential and have lot of room to grow. Trust me you do not want the mystic seals to stop forming," Seeing that Anna continued to focus on the wrong thing, the Field Marshal decided to share the experience of her friends and their progeny in the mystic dimension, "Let me tell you, I have lent my mystic dimension to many friends and colleagues to help them or their progeny break their limits. What you are feeling right now is nothing compared to the despair on their faces when they see that no more mystic seals are forming, showing that they have no more room to grow. You do not want to be one of them."

"What's the use of all this potential when I cannot do what I want and be with who I want," Anna complained, she regretted not telling Wyatt that she missed him. It was rare for Wyatt to show his feelings for her. Anna was so mad at herself that she acted that way when she met Wyatt after so many days.

"Girl, you have all that potential one can ask for in the world but you lack the brain to make use of it. Why do you keep thinking that this training is keeping you away from Wyatt rather than thinking that this training is helping you stay longer with Wyatt? If you had even one percent of the brains of that boy I would not have to tell you this.

I don't know if you have noticed, but though Wyatt did not have extraordinary origin or roots, in terms of potential, he is miles ahead of you. You are lucky you were born a few decades ahead of him if you were in the same generation as Wyatt you would understand the despair of those that had the misfortune of being born in the same generation as Wyatt.

You should be worried that the potential you have does not run out before Wyatt's instead of thinking without it you could enjoy your time with Wyatt.

Forget about potential, the current you do not even have the strength to fight alongside Wyatt. Your fight with Agent Forger should have been your wake-up call. Even though his realm is not high, using his wits and resourcefulness Wyatt has already managed to overcome the strength gap between you two. If you two were to fight now I honestly cannot tell if you can win against Wyatt.".
