The feeling of whole space appeared in my mind as a wave of space attribute magic radiated out of me. It was similar to how bats know about their surroundings thanks to their echolocation. I felt every crack and cavity in stones around me as I practised my [Space Scan] spell. It wasn’t mana expensive and with my new [??? Horns] I could cast it only with few breaks for hours. I already spent hours doing that, but my [Chorosmancy] remained at level one. As a higher-ranked magical school, it was even harder to level up than necromancy. Meanwhile, Rose was resting after she spent all of her mana and stamina practising her own abilities. Bifrons ignored us as he kept mixing some liquids in vials before writing down some notes.

More hours passed, and my [Chorosmancy] was still only level one. At least proficiency of [Space Scan] increased to three. I stopped and decided to take a break. I walked towards a throne and sat down. A soft cushion surrounded my bottom, and I started to smile. ‘I have to get my own throne. Yes, as a future ruler of this city, I will need a throne. ‘ Tired after a hard day of fighting and training, I fall asleep while sitting on a throne.

I woke up the next day stretching my arms. I ignored everything around me and started to cast [Space Scan] again. Rose walked closer to me, wanting to say something, but Bifrons stopped her. “Do not bother her with some mortal useless chit-chat. She has her goal already set in her mind. You will only displease her that way”.

Hours passed, and my head started to ache. I could feel even more minor cracks in stones and even space behind the walls with higher proficiency. More hours passed, and finally

Ding!

My headache slightly subsided, but I decided to rest, so I blinked directly to the throne. Space warped around me, and I was instantly in a different place. Still, my headache prevented me from enjoying my new spell. After a while, I had fallen asleep.

I woke up and let out a yawn. My headache entirely vanished so I could enjoy my new spell and the last day of waiting before my stats return. I looked around me, trying to spot Rose as I felt bad about ignoring her for days. But I spotted only Bifrons playing with some crystals.

“Where is a Rose?”

“She sleeps in a room behind the throne. And please stop using my throne as a bed.”

“How is my new staff?”

“Don’t you see? I am working on it right now, and It will be done sooner. If you stop bothering me.”

I noticed something I ignored yesterday ‘Nice, I can evolve my [Space Scan] now. Maybe it will be less useless.’ I opened evolution options for [Space Scan].

Spell Evolution

Current evolutions for [Space Scan]:

[Penetrating Scan]

Rapidly improves the capability to scan through the solid object like a wall.

[Analizing Scan]

Will gain abilities of [Analyze] allowing you to analyze objects and entities with a [Space Scan].

[Improved Scan]

Increases range and mana effectivity.

‘[Penetrating Scan] and [Analizing Scan] would be a useful combo, but I can unlock only one for now. So let’s go with penetrating one.’

An hour passed, and I was bored as I kept pouting in the corner. The only thing I could do was a train, but I was already filled with it as I spent two days doing only that, or spell crafting.

So I walked towards a throne and decided to create something stronger than lighting but still usable in combat. The first one was a modification of [Death-Infused Empowered Plasmabomb]. I decreased the input amount of mana, significantly decreasing its damage, but it would be much easier to cast. One can manually modify input mana while casting, but it is only by a relatively small amount. For greater difference, one needs to modify the spell itself.

Ding!

I opened my eyes, and I could see Rose standing above me and gazing at me. She jumped a little, startled by me suddenly opening my eyes.

“Awake? So let get some breakfast together. I am sure Bif here will be ably to summon some nice meal for us.”I offered a rose, as I felt bad about me ignoring her for two days. Also, I carved for some nice meal. I wasn’t hungry with my new body, but I would definitely still appreciate some good taste.

She nodded and smiled at me, so I stood up and went directly to a Bifrons.

“Bifrons? No, Bif will be better as your real name is too long. Can you summon some nice meal for two persons? It doesn’t need to be anything fancy.

“I am not a Bif” demon frowned and crossed his arms before continuing “, Its name is worth only of a mortal, not a mighty demon count like me.” Still, two plates of meal on a table appeared out of nowhere. There was mashed potato with chicken-like meat. Not exactly a meal that would be normally eaten on breakfast

“Thank you, biff” before he got a chance to react, I already stored both plates inside of my [Dymensional Storage] and blinked away with one [Blink] behind the throne and the second one into the small room.
