Very quickly.
Eli and Nikola came to a small lake not far from the forest. Nikola had a serious expression on his face. He took a deep breath and stood aside, while Eli stood dozens of meters away.
"For now, increase your strength to the third circle. It's better this way." Eli said to Nikola.
He was afraid that he would accidentally kill Nikola if he was in the second circle.
"Yes, my lord." Nikola nodded and immediately began to summon the undead.
After a short while, an overwhelming number of undead flew from the forest as if it was the end of the world and then poured into Nikola's body. His aura also rapidly rose to the level of a third circle early stage.
Nikola's aura was much stronger than that of a second-circle mage. An apprentice could not withstand the power of his mind control.
"Are you ready?"
"I'm ready!"
Nikola's face was serious, his aura was at its peak, and he stared at Eli.
