Feis Royal Magic Academy, First Magic Workshop.


    After receiving the news from Duke Hade that he was about to be ennobled as a Marquis by the Kingdom, Lis was briefly excited, but soon regained hisposure.


    After all, this was more of a reflection of honor; Lis''s goal was to follow in the footsteps of Teacher "Judgement me."


    It was the kingdom that was eager to confer the title of Duke upon him, but Fran declined it.


    For a Legendary Mage, many times, the fiefdom is no longer significant; they rather not bother with such matters.


    "Still a long way off!"


    Therefore, after sending Duke Hade away, Lis went directly to the First Magic Workshop.


    Recently, there were lots of matters to tend to—not only to prepare for the yers'' affairs but also to learn assassin profession skills from Joyce, so Lis''s arcane research progress had also slowed down a bit.


    However, Lis felt that with the deepening of his research, he was about to develop a new specialized arcane.


    Thest time he had this feeling was when he developed the Blue Ball Skill.


    So, this time Lis didn''t dy upon arriving at the First Magic Workshop. After sneaking several Advanced Memory Balls from Teacher Fran''s storeroom, he continued his arcane research in theboratory.


    Lis had recently sessfully extracted part of the magic pattern of the ghostly blue me from the Six-Circle Arcane Blue Ball Skill and was trying tobine it with Warrior Martial Skills to create a skill that would enjoy the benefits of both Intelligence and Strength attributes.


    This skill was developed by Lis by analyzing the core skill of Magic Swordsman, the "Magic Sword."


    As a rather unique profession, unlike Mages and Warriors, Magic Swordsmen enjoy a 1.5 times attribute modifier for both Intelligence and Strength, one of the few professions that develop both attributes simultaneously.


    The "Magic Sword," as the most important and core skill of a Magic Swordsman, is also the means for a Magic Swordsman to take advantage of the dual attribute modifier.


    The principle of the "Magic Sword" is to perform an elemental enchantment on the de used by the Magic Swordsman and attack the enemy with different exclusive Combat Skills of the Magic Swordsman.


    The elemental enchantment benefits from the enhancement of the Intelligence attribute, while the Magic Swordsman''s exclusive Combat Skills benefit from the Strength attribute.


    Thus, Magic Swordsmen can exhibit a rich and varied fighting style and casting ability simr to Mages in battle, while also enjoying the formidable frontal closebat capability of Warriors.


    Although not particrly outstanding in both aspects, this also gives Magic Swordsman exceptionally strong versatility inbat with few weaknesses, making it one of the more popr professions among yers.


    Lis had already managed to achieve the enchantment effect simr to the Magic Swordsman''s "Magic Sword" skill on weapons, but just that was not enough for Lis.


    Without the Magic Swordsman''s professional specialty, elemental enchantment alone cannot fully leverage the advantages of thebat style of Magic Swordsmen, and Lis needed to approach from other areas.


    So, Lis thought of enhancing lethality through special enchantments.


    And now, the special elemental technique Lis was most proficient with was actually the special ghostly blue me from the Blue Ball Skill.


    Lis was quite adept at using that special me; it was still his most proficient offensive technique.


    It wasn''t that Lis didn''t know other, more powerful special techniques. Just by the special elemental techniques taught by the Legendary Mage Fran, there were already plenty, and even the Magic Patternbination used by Fran Stephens to make a name for himself, the "Judgement me," Lis had already memorized it. He just wasn''t able to wield it yet.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    But after careful consideration and advice from Fran, Lis decided to walk a path of his own.


    After all, as a genuine Arcanist, only the arcane that best fits oneself is the most powerful.


    To draw knowledge from other spells and magic patterns, improve oneself, and use it as nourishment to bloom one''s own arcane, that is the correct way.


    "Why not try inserting the ''Blue me'' magic pattern onto the cornerstone magic pattern of the Magic Pattern Array?"


    Lis frowned, muttering to himself, and then quickly shook his head.


    "No, if I do that, the hard-earned bnce of the Magic Rune would be disrupted again. It''s not a one-time Spell, and the poor stability will likely lead to a copse."


    "What if I add a few more [Stabilization] Magic Runes to the keystone rune?"


    "That doesn''t seem to work either. It''s tooplex and has actually weakened the power."


    ...


    Lis felt a headacheing on. He had now strayed far from the path of Arcanists in his previous life. He mainly used his own knowledge to construct specialized arcane Magic Pattern Arrays, rather than relying on random arrays and luck.


    Nheless, the decision to develop new forms of arcane through this method brought numerous and considerable difficulties.


    Even the energy and time spent were no less than those Arcanists who relied on luck.


    However, sometimes sess appeared when least expected.


    After countless experiments and adjustments, the fine steel Longsword in front of Lis suddenly shed with a faint blue light. Blue mes slowly spread from the hilt, eventually enveloping the entire sword in a ghostly blue fire.


    "Did it work?"


    Lis raised an eyebrow, then reached out to touch the de wreathed in faint blue mes.


    Since Lis cast the spell himself, it naturally wouldn''t harm him.


    After closing his eyes and feeling it closely, Lis murmured,


    "No good, the mes are too dispersed. It looks exaggerated, but the power iscking."


    "I need to adjust it, but how do I make the mes more condensed?"


    ...


    After many more experiments, Lis finally seeded in condensing the mes on the de to a thin, deep blue halo clinging to the de''s edge by adding [Compression] runes.


    "Ah, it seems like I''ve added too many runes. It''s a bit cumbersome, but it''s the only way now."


    Lis still felt some regret, but this was the best he could do at the moment. Any further improvement would require acquiring higher-tier knowledge and abilities.


    -----------------


    [You have sessfully created a new spell!]


    [You have mastered the exclusive arcane [Magic Sword (Nameable)]]


    -----------------


    After Lis stabilized the new arcane, the system notification arrived btedly.


    Thinking it over, Lis decided to name the new arcane in the style of [Judgement me], calling it [Lis''s Blue me Demon Sword].


    -----------------


    [Naming sessful!]


    [You have mastered the exclusive Sixth Circle arcane [Lis''s Blue me Demon Sword]!]


    [Lis''s Blue me Demon Sword (Sixth Circle Arcane): An entirely new arcane created by Arcanist Lis. Upon using this arcane, it bestows the wielded weapon with [Blue me] status, in which any damage the weapon inflicts will impose [Undying Blue me] negative effect on the target, dealing (100+50% Intelligence Attribute) damage per second, reducing the target''s Physical Defense and Magic Resistance by 30%. This effect cannot be reced by Dispels, Purifications, Healings, or simr effects of tiers below Seventh Rank.]
