With a new Magic Circle engraved on his Mana Core, Ardent could not help but feel excited. After all, the engraving meant he is close to becoming a 1st Circle Mage, which even the village only have 8 of, with the remaining two being 2nd Circle Mage.
"Deep breath, Ardent. Deep breath." Ardent said to himself, trying to calm down from his excited state.
After taking some much needed deep breath, he peered back into his Mana Core. On it, the Magic Circle he managed to make. He still feel a bit giddy about it. A bit undignified considering his true mental age but who could blame him. He finally can use magic.
Calming himself the second time, he looked back at the Magic Circle. Creating it is the first step. The second step is using it.
Thankfully, the second step is easier. He merely need to pour Mana into the Magic Circle, and make sure it run through it like a fuel inside a machine.
