Eldritch Creature's Guide

Several days later, the 5th Floor.

Among the lush green grass fields, a young man with long red hair was fighting with the old man with long white hair and a pair of horns sprouting from his head, as countless spells were being cast and shot each passing second.

"You are doing good; now we will increase the intensity."

Remarked the elderly man as he continued with the attacks, this time with increased speed contrary to the past time. Every move executed by the Hall Master Menuhyutt Faulhaber was not only profound and elegantly done but also contained unspoken majesty and grace.

Samiel then nodded and started adjusting himself to the new pace of the fight. During the past few days, from the teachings of Hall Master Menuhyutt Faulhaber, Samiel had a very good grasp of the Metamagic Technique Combat Casting.

As Samiel cast another few spells simultaneously attacking Menuhyutt with his Ice Trident, suddenly Samiel heard the notification from the Akashic Records, which sounded in his ears as translucent windows appeared in front of his eyes.

[Metamagic Skill Combat Casting has been created by Samiel Zentaur.]

[Proficiency with the Metamagic Skill Combat Casting has been increased.]

[Proficiency with the Metamagic Skill Combat Casting has been increased.]

[Proficiency with the Metamagic Skill Combat Casting has been increased.]

Finally, after several days of brutal training and spars, in which he was beaten to death several times over, especially after undergoing his evolution from obtaining the Void properties for his Mana by getting high proficiency with the Nuclear Void Mana Control Method, one thing about him which was boosted tremendously was his regeneration.

Yeh, Samiel's regeneration got boosted several times over, together with his Stamina and Vitality, which basically allowed the Hall Master to increase the pace of their fight and also the ferocity they were fighting.

Instantly after obtaining the Metamagic Skill Combat Casting, Samiel could sense that his ability to use the Combat Casting was more flawless and more seamless. It was a very nice feeling, as he was casting one spell after another, while at the same time, he was fighting with the elderly Hall Master in close combat.

Right now, Samiel has already grasped the basics of Combat Casting, allowing him to divide his focus on the combat itself and casting the spells. Most importantly, Samiel achieved it through pure training and not through some Ability or racial ability, which would allow him, for example, to divide his consciousness into several parts.

"I see that you have already obtained d the Metamagic Skills... impressive... several days faster than I initially anticipated."

Menuhyutt Faulhaber commented, stopping his subsequent attacks as he stared at Samiel with a weird smile on his face, but it was clear that he was satisfied with his current progress. The old man rarely let out any emotions appear and typically kept his poker face throughout the day, not showing his thoughts on the outside.

"Will we be going through the other aspects of the Metamagic?"

Samiel questioned, sitting down on the grass cross-legged. Learning the other aspects of the Metamagic would be greatly advantageous for him because they would elevate him further as a Caster and tremendously boost up his combat prowess and combat efficiency.

"For now, not... learning everything at once could be relatively dangerous. Not one by one, but if you learn many Metamagic Techniques, and use them at the same time without properly mastering them, then it is highly possible to be overwhelmed by the Spell itself."

The Hall Master explained, to which Samiel nodded.

"I noticed that you have been using trident most of the time in our spars. I take it that it would be your weapon of choice, I presume?"

Samiel nodded because, indeed the trident was going to be his weapon of choice. He was collecting the shard of the Trishula, which was an Ultra-Order Grade weapon, which was the highest grade for the artifacts in the whole Cosmos.

Of course, even though he currently had only one shard, that would be soon changing in the future; thus, he was investing in learning how to handle polearms. Interestingly, he found out that he was relatively good with it, and the trident felt good in his body like it was supposed to be in that way.

"Even though I am not a master in handling the polearms, due to Eternal Arms Mastership, I could still teach you how to master the polearms to a certain degree."

Eternals Arms Mastership was one of the rarest Level Abilities across the whole Cosmos; it was Level 4 Transcendent Ability, which allowed someone to use any weapon at the level of experienced Master.

Of course, it was not the same compared to a person who developed his mastery over one weapon to a frightening level, but it was something to allow a person to have terrifying combat adaptability and a high degree of unpredictability.

Not to mention that the combat prowess was very high with the Eternal Arms Mastership. Samiel had only some proficiency with Swordsmanship, which was stuck at the 14%; on the contrary, Yvraine had already evolved it to Sword Mastery because she was very talented in that aspect.

From this moment, Samiel started learning Polearm Arts as the Skill was called from the Hall Master Menuhyutt Faulhaber, and surprisingly, just several hours later, Samiel had already heard the notifications Akashic Records.

[Skill Polearms Arts has been created.]

[Proficiency with the Skill Polearms Arts has been increased by 1%.]

[Proficiency with the Skill Polearms Arts has been increased by 1%.]

[Proficiency with the Skill Polearms Arts has been increased by 1%.]

As Samiel was exchanging one blow after another with the Hall Master, both of them were holding ice tridents that Samiel conjured, training a bit with his Ultimate Ability Winter Ruler; he heard one notification from the Akashic Records after another.

This continued for several more hours before Hall Master Menuhyutt motioned him to stop, and in an instant, their spar came to an end. After ending the fight, it was time for dinner, and that meant that Samiel needed to cook dinner.

Bigger than usual.

Not only for Hall master Menuhyutt Faulhaber who also came to enjoy his food but mainly because of himself. After his evolution and approaching closer to the Eldritch Creature, Samiel found out that he ate at least two times more than before.

Fortunately, on the island, there were enough magical beasts for him to hunt and then eat, and many of them were incredibly delicious. Also, for the past few days, his Familiar Nefertari was surprisingly also training with her abilities, which was very shocking on its own.

Usually, she would spend either day sleeping and wake up only after his training was finished and he started preparing dinner. Even the Menuhyutt didn't really have a need for any food because, after the transition to the Legendary Level, one doesn't need such "mortal" things to sustain themselves.

They were good off just on the Mana and nothing else.

After one and half hours, the food was done; this time, it was chili, made from three types of meat from Steel-Tier Magical Beasts and the 6 kinds of hot peppers that were from several worlds across the Cosmos.

Samiel bought them on the 3rd Floor from one of the traveling merchants, who was trading spices across the entirety of the Cosmos. Not to mention the topping was sour cream from the milk of Bronze-Tier Two-Headed Cow and sharp cheddar from Silver-Tier Red-Horned Goat.

Even Nefertari was eating the chili, even though it was very spicy, due to various types of rare hot peppers that Samiel incorporated into it and other spices that were collected across the whole Cosmos.

Even Samiel felt that it was a bit spicy; maybe he really went overboard, but then he saw old Master Menuhyutt eating it like there was no other way; clearly, the old man had a thing for spicy things.

"I take that the chili is to your tastes."

Samiel noted the obvious; even Nefertari enjoyed the spicy food.

"Indeed, I always liked spicy foods."

Elderly Hall Master answered.

***

5th Floor of the Tower, somewhere on the floating island where Yvraine was located.

Just as Samiel was undergoing the training, Yvrianw was the same, as she was learning under the Lord of the Moon Sword, Elraroth Daeric Yaennernamis, who was instructing her on the secrets of the Silvermoon Swordsmanship and its subsequent Mastery over it.

At the present time, Yvraine has already adapted herself to his torturous training and has not had a problem with exercising and no complaints have been raised, which is a good sign at this point. Considering that this was the first time in her life since she was undergoing proper strict, rigorous training, not like the one at the Imperial Palace, where everyone would shit their pants if she got injured.

From the start, Yvriane was learning relatively fast. Yvraine was a natural talent with swords, and she learned very fast from the Lord of the Moon Sword and started grasping the essence of the Silvermoon.

"Very well, you are progressing steadily..."

Lord Elraroth stated indifferently while observing Yvraine repeating the sword stances, as the swords she was holding were glittering with the silverish light, which was a sign of the slight essence of the Silvermoon that was contained within her sword strikes.

"Thank you, Lord Moon Sword."

Yvraine then continued repeating the sword stances to completely master the basic essence of the Silvermoon Swordsmanship, which would allow her to freely use the aura of the Silvermoon, something exceedingly rare and very destructive if used correctly.

In truth, she already felt that she was near competition of her Quest she got from the Tower's System, as everyone who entered this Floor for the first time would get the same Quest from the Tower's System, not depending on the fact if they were previously connected to it or not.

"After you have finished the basic training, I will be taking you to another island which is inhabited by some stronger Magical Beasts to test your prowess."

Lord of the Moon Sword Elraroth Daeric Yaennernamis stated as Yvraine's eyes glittered in anticipation, wanting to see how much has she progressed under the rigorous training. This was not to increase her Levels or raw power but rather to train some essential skills that needed some fitness and training to master and achieve their fullest potential.

"After you have finished your training with Sword, I noticed that your use of the Metamagic is lousy and akin like of a novice; why is that?"

Asked the Lord of the Moon Sword as if his gaze was piercing through Yvraine's very own soul. With one gaze Lord Elraroth was able to see that Yvriane didn't properly utilize one of the greatest advantages that she was born with it and was essentially wasting it away for paltry tricks and weak spells that were not worth of it.

Contrary to the skills and techniques that many needed to learn and master, they often dedicated their whole lives to even peek at the pinnacle of the magic techniques and studying every single aspect of the Metamagic to the utmost extreme in hopes of utilizing it one day.

Yvraine didn't need any of that; for her, she was already born with everything she needed to perfectly utilized the Metamagic as a whole. In truth, she would hate to learn it because, from her point of view, it was boring as hell.

In the form of a Level 3 Ultimate Ability Metamagic, culmination and crystallization of all Metamagic's Spell Control, Spell Fusion, Combat Casting, Empower Spell, Maximize Spell, Spell Penetration, Silent Spell, and Spontaneous Casting or Multi-Cast.

But even then, she wasn't using the Ability to its utmost potential, and contrary to what many would expect, Yvraine rarely used the Magic in her combat style with the usage of the Metamagic. Basically, from Elrorath's viewpoint, she was wasting a ton of potential.

"I have no excuses for this failure Lord Elrorath."

Yvraine answered stoically, not sure what to say. She was aware that the Metamagic was precious; even a single technique, if learned, would give the caster unprecedented advantage in a fight, not to mention she was born with an Ultimate Ability encompassing all of them.

Still, she barely used the Level 3 Ultimate Ability Metamagic to the maximum of her potential because, for a very long time, she didn't really deem it necessary to use it, as most of her fights ended with just the might of her swords. Even if she used it, it was only for something superficial and a relatively easy spell, mainly ignoring the large potential of the Metamagic itself.

Aside from the fights with Samiel, where she was forced to sue the Magic more extensively, she still lost. Now when looking at it retrospectively, she realized that she was very bad at utilizing the Metamagic at all, making all of her moves easily predictable and ineffective.

That stemmed from her overall inexperience with the Metamagic, as she only used her swords for the majority of her life. Something which was a waste of potential because even if she was not born with the Level 3 Ultimate Ability Metamagic, she was still a Silvermoon Elf.

And all Silvermoon Elves were natural-born Arcanists, as the Magic came from their Bloodline like in the case of Sorcerers and they were naturally gifted with frightening comprehensive capabilities towards the Magic like those who embarked on the path of Wizardry.

Take the Lord Moon Sword Elraroth Daeric Yaennernamis, for example. Even though he dedicated his whole life to the path of the sword and was a swordsman at heart, in truth, he could cast Spell up to the 9th Level included. While he had no chance at casting 10th Level Spells because that would require a more extensive study of Magic, he could cast effortlessly spells up to the 8th Level, and even some 9th Level ones.

Not to mention, she was very well aware of how Samiel had struggled to learn concepts behind the Metamagic Techniques while she was just served it on a silver platter but wasted the majority, if not all of it.

Samiel spent a long time comprehending even the basics of a single aspect of the Metamagic and learning one Metamagic Technique, as even that required tremendous effort and talent, usually a combination of both of them.

"Then we will need to work on that too... with the Elementia Magicae Magic and Metamagic you could probably fight more equally even against such abominations as your chosen one."
