I want to clarify something with you guys.
I saw that most of you guys saying that the second skill will have higher risks and that he may lose complete control of himself so I wanted to say.
The Baphomet's Blasphemous Body skill won't have that much risks to begin with and the costs of the power will be within the damage range and for story devolopment.
Also because the more he uses the power doesn't mean Baphomet might completely kill him.
Who knows. Baphomet might be a nice guy. Just saying not completely declaring. Wink Wink.

I suddenly have a revelation as I slap my forehead while thinking I am such a fr*cken idiot, I have a bank with close to a blank check and a mall with nigh infinite stuff and here I am thinking about how to get a item which can increase my mana capacity.
I call the system and say "System open the shop and find me elixirs which can temporarily increase my mana capacity with close to no repercussions"
The Blue panel flashed open and showed Searching... and after 5 seconds later six different options were shown.
[ Mana Potion 1.0 - Item - Magical - Common - Cost (265 Bronze) ]
[ Mana Potion 2.0 - Item - Magical - Common - Cost (600 Bronze) ]
[ Mini Spring Mana Elixir - Item - Magical - Uncommon - Cost (50 Silver) ]
[ Chubby Man's Mana Elixir - Item - Magical - Rare - Cost (90 Silver) ]
[ Gargantua Mana Bomb - Item - Magical - Special - Cost (2.5 Gold) ]
I look at the top three and the last two strange names as I click on them to see their descriptions.

[ Mini Spring Mana Elixir - Item - Magical - Uncommon - Cost (50 Silver)

[ Chubby Man's Mana Elixir - Item - Magical - Rare - Cost (90 Silver)
Description - Fulfillment. Brimming. Overflowing. Drink this and become full with mana. By drinking Chubby Man's Mana Elixir you will temporarily gain 10000 Mana points. You will not experience any kind of dizziness or mana drownage. But your body will temporarily gain 1000 Pounds in weight.]
[ Gargantua Mana Bomb - Item - Magical - Special - Cost (2.5 Gold)
Description - By drinking this potion you will temporarily get 5000 Mana Points. Your body won't experience any kind of pain or drownage or any problems ]
As I look at the descriptions I start to think about their effects and which one to cross out. Mana potion 1.0 and 2.0 are out because they can only give me so little mana and they also have problems with dizziness and discomfort.
Mini Spring Mana Elixir is quite good but because I want to quickly level up the mastery of the breathing skill I will have to continuously use elixirs and it will give me Mana Drownage which I don't want so that's out.
Oh! you don't know what's Mana Drownage is, well let me explain.
Mana Drownage is actually a illness in which your mana doesn't regenrate as much as it should and as time goes on you will slowly lose the amount of mana you previously had.
Also the Chubby Man's Mana Elixir will also have to be crossed out. It may have a HUGE mana advantage but I won't use it. Why? you ask.
Because I don't want to become a 1000 Pound Monstrosity that's why.
So the only valid option there is left is the Gargantua Mana Bomb. it's description is simple, I will get 5000 mana and the best thing is there won't be any kind of physical or emotional damage.
So I press the Buy button in the right side of the item and Voila a glass bottle drops in front of my hands which are already in a motion to catch a Home-Run Baseball.
The glass bottle is 5 Inches in Height and 2 Inches in length, the top of the bottle is closed with a wooden cap. Inside the glass bottle the Concoction or the elixir itself is purple in color with sparkles in it as well.
I try to open the cap of the bottle and a 'Pop' sound appears as the cap pulls out and a pungent smell gets out. I close my left eye and use my right eye to look inside the bottle. Inside, the elixir itself is swirling quite wavily and bubbles are forming. I get back and as I look at the bottle head a purple fume gets out and formed the words 'Gargantua'.
I hesitate whether to actually believe it's description or give it to the family dog for an experiment. Finally after a minute or two later I close my eyes and use my fingers to close my nose and stuff down the elixir.
It tasted quite.. strong Like muscular and it also makes me feel strong as well, like I can punch straight through this tiles floor but I'm not crazy enough to actually do it.
I open the system to look at my stats.

I smile as I start to think 'Well it definitely worked and I don't feel like I have any dizziness or discomfort at all too.'
Now with that done let's spam this breathing skills mastery.
Then I close my eyes and say "Activate"
