Taking the Mafia to the Magic Worldchapter 590: qualitative evolution: climate control

After deciding to go after other Cataclysm Order outposts in the future, Vicente didn't leave this secret order outpost right away.

He had gathered some exciting resources for himself, Torne, and Onyx, and this was a place with enough security levels for them to stay longer and take advantage of the opportunity.

After collecting the special bracelet, Vicente went with Torne and Onyx to the second level of this outpost, where this secret altar's training and meditation area was located.

Once there, Vicente didn't hesitate to tell Torne and Onyx about the best compatible resources for them before selecting other things compatible with his two gems.

Vicente, Torne, and Onyx were very different, even though they all had an affinity for darkness. Torne was a ghost. Onyx was a beast, and Vicente was a magician. How magical resources affect them would vary greatly because of their particular characteristics.

In Torne's case, magical essences capable of strengthening the spirit would have the most positive effect on him. In contrast, items capable of improving the body would not affect him at all.

Onyx would benefit from the opposite of Torne. Items that could strengthen his body would be much better for him than those that could strengthen his mind.

Vicente could be positively affected by both types of resources. Still, he had a greater affinity for items processed by magicians, such as potions and pills.

There was a reason why magicians had developed so many magical resources that were artificially altered. It wasn't just an endeavor to create a greater variety of options but also an attempt to improve the success of magicians in absorbing resources.

Magicians couldn't process the essence of magical herbs as well as beasts. They used special techniques and skills to create pills and potions to make the most of magical resources.

Thus, Vice was left with some pills and potions, while Onyx was basically given two types of herbs to eat and use to his advantage.

As for Torne, Vicente gave this ghost a crystal capable of nourishing the spirit.

With these resources in hand, each would enter into their own particular forms of meditation in the altar's special cultivation area.

...

A few hours after the three began their little retreat in the secret outpost of the Cataclysm Order in the Kenyth Empire, Vicente

experienced several improvements in his abilities related to his two Magic Gems.

His level hasn't changed, but the density of his mana has increased dramatically, and his ocean of mana has become more concentrated.

However, his most important improvement was not related to his energies but to his ability to understand and control his elements.

After consuming pills and potions that could increase his abilities related to the elements of darkness, earth, and lightning, he felt something different in his gems, while his pentagrams of natural origin trembled with the qualitative changes he was experiencing.

He was still meditating, so his improvements were ongoing. However, after a few hours of meditation, he approached an important point where he would once again change one of his essences.

While he could more easily perceive the earth and lightning elements around him, something natural as one becomes stronger, he felt his first pentagram begin its evolution to the next qualitative level!

The ground below where Vicente stood began to change around him as small bolts of lightning shot from his body into the surrounding area, making Torne and Onyx feel the changes in their master.

But neither of them stopped what they were doing, confident that these changes would not harm them, as they were somehow part of Vicente's powers.

As they continued their meditations, the phenomena around Vicente intensified, affecting practically all of the surroundings, while metallic objects began to form in the vicinity without Vice doing so.

At the same time, the electromagnetic fields in the area changed, and the sunny day over the area where Vicente was suddenly changed, and thunderstorms began to form.

Vicente and his group didn't know it, but that day would bring a significant climate change to the entire coastal region they were in, something that would affect an area of more than 200 square kilometers.

But all of Vicente's attention was on how his essences were changing with the resources he was ingesting: his second pentagram was getting new lines and cyan symbols, while the first was turning completely yellow.

Crack!

When he reached the point where he could go without a bigger change in the first pentagram, Vicente felt like something had broken in his body.

The previously orange pentagram changed as if it had been reborn and glowed an extremely beautiful golden yellow.

But the most remarkable thing was not its appearance but the fluctuation that came from it, which was now much more like the sensation that came from the first pentagram of Vicente's second magical form.

Following this advance, Vicente felt his first gem gain more power and space within his consciousness as he suddenly noticed its new abilities.

'Atmospheric Control...' He gave his new ability a name.

He noticed the magnetic storm over the area they were in, causing the aurora borealis to appear near the area while heavy clouds condensed there.

The changes brought about by these phenomena caused other local climatic features to change, forming the storm that was already rapidly affecting this coastal part of the empire.

As he felt this, Vicente also felt a change in the land around that area, feeling more mana around him than was normally the case.

Now, he could affect the atmosphere around him, even bringing rain to arid regions and temporarily increasing the mana density of certain areas!

He opened his eyes as he finished his progress, feeling that his level was much closer to the highest point an Earth Sovereign could reach.

He would still have a long way to go to become a Sky Sovereign, as the differences in levels grew exponentially with each advancement. However, he was now much closer to the next level than he was at the beginning of the 4th stage.

'It looks like it won't be long before we see each other again, Lauren.' He thought of his sister as he clenched his fists with determination.

'I have already avenged our mother, now my next mission is to get you out of the clutches of those damned Nixlas' Shadows!' His eyes sparkled as he imagined the future when Nina would be less dependent on him and he would have everything ready to go after Lauren.

He wasn't in a hurry, but with this improvement, he couldn't help but feel closer to that goal than ever before!
