Mana circles are like electric circuits through which electricity runs. Except there is an addition of types of electricity.
Different elements show different types of electricity and wiring them up without wounding them is easier said than done. Though if you can make use of already present mana veins can restrict one type of mana and allow another, it becomes possible.
There is a process called layering, where you place one layer of mana circle over another and then intertwine them at certain intervals. The interval goes through the body first before going to the next layer to make things work.
Under normal conditions, people can use only one type of mana at a time. Because the human body can only give out a certain type of mana at a time. Though having an extra layer solves the problem by creating a semi-functional exit.
Kind of like creating a bifurcation within the mana veins at certain intervals. Too complex, to be honest.
Livia's mana veins were quite messed up, but it wasn't impossible to make a mana channel through it. It took about an hour more than what I thought but I was able to do it.
And perhaps because I was in a good mood…
"Perfect," I mumbled as I looked at the glowing mana circle with 4 different energies slowly flowing through them.
"?!!!" Livia, who was silent until now, suddenly jerked her body as she felt the mana rapidly flowing through her back.
"Vincent?!" She spoke out, looking at me for answers.
"Well. I guess I overdid it. I hope you don't mind it," I spoke before explaining further,
"Accordingly, you can now store 4 times your normal mana. Your mana regeneration should be at least two times, as it was before, as well.
Apart from that, you can also store two different mana within the circles and can use them at once. And they would not count in your normal mana reserve.
And lastly, your mana control should be a bit more stable than before."
Her eyes were wide open as she turned around, with her hands covering her breasts. She looked at me with utter disbelief, unable to speak even a single word.
"Do I still get that kiss on the cheek?" I spoke, and she moved closer to me and… kissed me on the lips.
It was a light peck as she stood there for a few moments before she separated herself with a slightly embarrassed look.
"Well… I am honored," I smiled as I touched my lips with my finger.
"Vincent. I don't know who you really are but… what you have done for me today has solved about 90% of my problems at once. I honestly didn't think the effect would be this great." She was being true to her heart as she continued,
"If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask. As long as it is not against my morals, I will even put my life on the line to do it.
I vow in the name of the Reinhart family, from this moment onwards, Livia Reinhart will give you as much support as she can offer."
'A pledge of the heart in the family's name, huh?' I smiled as I liked the ring of that.
"I am honored," I nodded before speaking,
"Aren't you going to get dressed?"
It wasn't really a bad thing for me, but there is a time and a place for everything… or something like that.
"You want me to?" She teased me as the look in her eyes changed.
"And how should I be answering that?" I spoke as I got closer to her, lifted her face by her chin a little, and brought her face closer to mine.
"How do you want to answer that?" She seemed pretty confident as she looked at me.
'Well. Don't blame me for anything that happens after this,' I spoke on the inside before I moved in for a kiss, at which she followed as well.
At first, it was just a simple kiss that soon turned into a fiery one as she opened her mouth and let my tongue touch hers.
"Mmh~"
Perhaps because her tongue was one of her soft spots, she started moaning at my little play.
Moving in, I then grabbed her hand by one hand, her waist by another, before pushing her down on the bed as I got on top of her, while I kept kissing her.
Her hands, which I held by mine, got tighter as I kissed her a bit more and then slowly descended down to her neck without my tongue leaving the touch of her body.
Moving towards the neck, I kissed her soft spots and…
"Aaah~"
"Mmm~~"
"GOD~"
"This feels…. GOOOD~~"
-BOOM!!!!
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO LIVIA?!!!" And an angry Daphne interrupted in between as she opened… erm…. More like broke down the door of the bedroom.
'Well. I guess that's the call for stopping right now,' I thought as I took a step back and got to my back, while Livia covered her breasts by her hand and spoke with a red face,
"Daphne? Didn't I tell you not to come back until late at night?" Livia spoke frantically, making Daphne pause for a moment, before she looked at our positions again.
"But! It is already late at night! And the butlers said that… that…" Daphne was getting confused as I stepped off the bed and looked at Livia.
"Let's meet again in the training area tomorrow?" I spoke, making her turn at me with a rather regretful face. Though she nodded as she answered,
"All right. Thank you again for what you did."
Daphne looked at us with a narrowed gaze, while I just chuckled before looking at Livia,
"I will leave her to you."
And then, waving my hand, I walked outside the room. Towards the abandoned factory where 'Vincent' was last seen.
'Let's see if I can find something interesting there.'
