Standing still, he closed his eyes for a few seconds and perceived the flow of mana in his body. Discarding all the other energies that flowed alongside it, he focused solely on mana.
The mana empowered by his lightning affinity had a blueish tinge to it as it coursed through his body. He felt that flow and tried to increase it. As it increased, he felt closer.
The feeling of strength and control made him smile. He was getting closer to his goal but he wasn't strong enough yet. He thought a but more and realized, even if he was strong enough, his control over his element wasn't enough.
For him to reach that level, he had to feel the lightning around it and let it travel through his body. Although he had done the same when he fought against the Goblin Queen, it was different.
