Chapter 183 Official Advance Stage
Veer couldn't be more happy with the developments, as he once again got reminded of how overpowered his Mana Circulation Technique was.
It would just continue to shine more and more, as he progressed in ranks. That was exactly happening right now, as it not only allowed him to advance but also in a much better way.
Veer grinned and looked at his numerical stats in his status.
[HP: 300/480]
[MP: 550/6600 (inaccessible)]
[Stamina: 271/300]
'Damn!' Veer exclaimed, seeing the increase in his stats. He had been keeping an eye on his stats, so he knew it was a massive increase.
His health had tripled...no, it was even more than that. It meant his vitality had increased greatly after Ascension. He could now sustain much more wounds and even heal faster.
'Wait! Is this because of my torturous method? It's possible!'
Veer felt that was the case, because no way the Ascension would have this much of a change in Vitality. After all, he was still in lower stages, so the change shouldn't be that massive.
'Woah! Not only the mana I can access has increased, but even my inherent Mana has increased,' Veer was most surprised on this.
He had expected a two times increase in his mana, but it was also tripled or was atleast close to that. He couldn't know the exact number as his mana Core wasn't fully filled.
But one thing was clear, he had tones of mana to spare now. After all, his mana control had also increased and now he could use it more efficiently.
As for the inherent Mana, it was fixed since birth and could only be increased through the use of Aspect. Because he had a large reserve of inherent mana and the fact that he couldn't interact with Liliana, his Aspect wasn't much of use in this case.
Fortunately, he still had his Sub-Aspect through which he had bonded with Aurora and Elara. After so much time, his inherent Mana had finally increased by whopping 200 points.
'Oh! There's Seisha too. Maybe her dragon bloodline helped in this.'
Whatever the reason was, he was incredibly happy with the gains and felt that the pain was worth it.
He didn't bother looking at stamina much, because it was related to vitality so it wasn't a surprise that it increased.

Since there was still some time for the sunrise, Veer decided to officially enter the Advance Stage. Since he was a battle Mage, he would have to fulfill both of their requirements.
He needed to make an Armour and perform a Tier-D Spell.
Since he didn't have a spell in his hand, he decided to focus on the armour part and closed his eyes. Gradually, mana leaked from his body pors in an even rhythm.
There wasn't a hint of fluctuations in it, as it covered his body and coated it in a mana shell. Then, he willed it to become solid and focused on doing it.
Fortunately, his precise Mana control came in help for this. Since he could even perform the Mana Circulation Technique of his, making a thin armour around him wasn't a big deal.
In just a few minutes, he had a shimmering purple coating around his body. It was transparence, but solid and durable. However, this wasn't what Veer wanted.
While it was true that making a thin Armour was the requirement to enter Advance Stage, it was mostly for weaker people. It was so that even they could register themselves as Advance Stage adventurers or whatever they wanted to be.
Nonetheless, they were considered weak and majority of people formed better armor after stepping in the Advance Stage. Veer wanted to do the same.
He needed a good imagination for that too, so he imagined the bloody armour of Rock that they had gotten from the Platform. It was Ancient and looked very powerful, even without it's effects.
So, Veer began to replicate it as the mana changes it's state again and began to flow around him like an endless river. It convulsed, took dives and changed shapes according to Veer's imagination.
Surprisingly, Veer found his imagination to be better after ascending as he could imagine the intricate design of the armour clearly and began to design it around him.
It proved to be tough, humbling him. But it wasn't like he had encountered setbacks for the first time so he continued practicing it.
After around three hours of non stop practice, Veer's eyes snapped open as he smiled in glea. He had succeeded, even if not completely.
Rock had an heavy armour and it's designe was very complicated, so Veer decided to change his target and formed a similar armour, but in light category. It was smaller, but sturdy and encased him in a tight, armour suit.
From inside the purple armour, Veer looked at his hand which had a transparence gauntlet on it and thought, 'Now this is what we call an upgrade!'
The sad thing was that it consumed too much mana, even for someone like him. Good thing was that he could keep the armour active for as long as he wants after making it once.
Of course, if it got destroyed then it would take a lot more to make it again.
Veer let the armour dissolve, as most of the mana dispersed in the air and other returned back to his body.
'Now that I have completed this, I'm an Official Advance Stage warrior. Though, I'll need to ask Elizabeth for the mage part. Hmm, I can try out a few spells myself.'
He smiled thinking of that, as he still had mana left. It really felt good having so much mana. He just hoped he wouldn't get a nerf soon.
'Hmm, now that I think about it, I don't have any spell my own. Do I even have some affinity or what. Oi! System! Do I have any affinity with any elements?'
[Certainly, yes. You have affinity with elements, but I can't check them for you because there's a seal blocking it.]
'Ah! I completed forgot about that part,' Veer facepalmed, feeling silly on how he had kept his disguise even now. Well, he didn't have any advantage over revealing that so he didn't bother.
But it was blocking his potential, so he decided to discard the disguise. It wasn't like he needed to hide from anyone in the labyrinth, or even real world now that he had decided to fight everyone.
He took a deep breath and opened his battle suit on his chest, tapping at the centre while muttering, "Open!"
Instantly, a click sound came as something popped out of his chest. He grabbed it and took it out, revealing a small cylinder shaped pipe pure purple in colours. It also had a thick, purple liquid inside it filled with stars like crystals.
The moment the seal came off, Veer's appearance had a few changes. His ears free longer, taking the shape of classic Elf ears but longer than one would expect.
He was a Royal High Elf, after all. And his hair gave it away too, as they changed from black to blonde colour similar to Aurora, but deeper and had a hint of purple undertone.
His face became more charming and handsome. There weren't any significant changes in his face, but he would definitely charm more people now.
This was the effect of being a Royal elf, one of the most beautiful existence in the world.
He exhaled a pent up breath, as he noticed the changes in his body too. His skin grew paler, and he also grew in height while his body turned more lean.
Veer Ainsworth, the bastard prince of Elf Kingdom.
He ruffled his shoulder length blonde hair and then tied them behind. He muttered, "I' really need a cut later."
He was just going to ask the system to check on him when he heard a voice through his bond with his wives, 'Hey, are you done?'
Veer was speechless, as he asked, 'And what If I wasn't? Would you have disturbed me in my Ascension?'
Elara's nonchalant reply came right back, 'Meh! I know you must have ascended way earlier. I felt the strong aura from your barrier. I just asked now because I noticed the change in your aura, especially now.'
'V, did you undo the seal?'
Aurora also asked, her voice filled with curiosity.
Veer sighed, dropping the plans for now and said, 'Let's meet up since it seems like you two are also dond with your Ascension.'
'Of course, who do you think I am? It was easy peasy.'
'Hehe, it was easier than I thought.'
Veer wondered if they were just bragging or they seriously had it easy while he was getting tortured here. He shook his head and thought, 'Probably not. I just like to complain, after all.'
Then, he went outside his barrier.
