Azarinth Healer

Chapter 887: Arcane



Chapter 887: Arcane

Ilea looked at her list, her eyes hovering over the possible replacements for the Arcane Eternal.

- The Azarinth Myth (healing a city, azarinth though)

- The Death Chosen (soul and death, kinda whacky)

- The Arcane Apocalypse (Pure arcane, straight upgrade probably. Good option)

- The Cosmic Immortal (Astral+Arcane hybrid? Seems like a good option too)

- The Storm Remnant (Arcane lightning Strong option)

She smiled at her extensive and detailed documentation.

So, the last three are valid options. Kind of want to keep my focus on arcane, seeing how well its worked out so far. Started by the change of the Bluemoon Grass.

She scratched her cheek.

Apocalypse seems like the easy option, but Cosmic Immortal

Attuned to both arcane and astral magic. That has to be rare. And Ive yet to hear of cosmic magic at all. Plus theres a mention of reconstruction specifically, whereas Arcane Apocalypse just mentions having an arcane based spell in the Fourth Tier.

Ilea didnt overthink. She couldnt find any red flags with the Cosmic Immortal, and it sounded powerful. If not more so than the Arcane Apocalypse. Differing from the latter, it mentioned her Reconstruction, and it was unique, something arcane, but also new. Compared to a simple upgrade to her current powers, with a chance of possibly less focus on healing.

She wistfully glanced at the option of Storm Remnant. Perhaps if I had gotten you at five hundred. Who knows.

Ilea selected her evolution for the Arcane Eternal, messages appearing in her minds eye.

She couldnt quite contain her smile, already feeling the added power flowing through her.

Skills changed by The Cosmic Immortal

Active: Archon Strike [Enhanced] 3rd lvl 30:

Send a destructive pulse of mana into your enemy with every attack using your arms, fists, fingers, legs, feet, or head. Your Intelligence stat enhances the damage potential.

2nd stage: The amount of mana used per strike can be regulated with a maximum of 1000 mana per strike. You may charge each strike with 1000 mana per second to a maximum of 5000 mana.

3rd stage: You may choose to use Archon Strike as a non intrusive attack, instead sending a wave of destructive healing onto your enemy. Due to the healing nature of Archon Strike it partially ignores protection against Mana intrusion. You may heal allies with Archon Strike. If used as a wave, the range of Archon Strike increases by 5.5m.

Category: Healing Magic

[Archon Strike] becomes [Cosmic Deconstruction]

Active: Cosmic Deconstruction [Enhanced] 3rd lvl 30:

Send a pulse of deconstructing cosmic power into an object, spell, or creature within your domain with every motion using your arms, fists, fingers, legs, feet, or head. Your Intelligence stat enhances the damage potential.

2nd stage: The amount of mana used per pulse can be regulated with a maximum of 5000 mana per pulse. You may charge each pulse with 5000 mana per second to a maximum of 25000 mana. Once cosmic power resides within a target, you can rip it out with a reversed motion to cause additional damage. Cosmic power within a target stacks, depending on their defensive measures and structure.

3rd stage: You may choose to use Cosmic Deconstruction as a non intrusive attack, instead sending out a broad wave of deconstructing energy from you at the center. The same motion requirements as in the first tier apply. If used as a wave, the range of Cosmic Deconstruction is equal to the range of your domain and is more effective against magical constructs.

Ilea read through her old skill and the changes of the new one. She raised her arm and looked at a random chunk of rock a few dozen meters away. Waving her hand, she activated the spell and saw a near invisible force manifest within her domain, flowing down into the rock, her target not exploding or hammered into powder but dissipating into mana itself, its matter returned into the surroundings, as if its very self had been unmade.

She raised her brows and tried with a few more rocks, trying different movements too. With her fingers, arms, even her head. She could target anything she perceived in her broad dominion. With some of the larger rocks and the ground itself, her Cosmic Deconstruction dissipated only a part, until the mana she put in was used up. The more she used, the more matter would dissipate.

The force that makes and unmakes all. Returned to nothing. Or to mana, I suppose.

She looked at her hand and made a fist.

Guess I made the right choice, she thought with a smile.

No requirement for touching anymore either. She didnt know for sure how she felt about that. There was something about hand to hand fighting she still very much enjoyed, but lately, her ash and fires had been her main focus already. And when she got in close, it wasnt exactly a nuanced battle of skill, more just a delivery of intrusion magic. This would just simplify that process.

Though that Oracle was a fun fight. Maybe Ill find a few more beings like that in the wild.

Standing up, she started shadowboxing, aiming at the ground nearby where invisible cosmic forces dissipated bits and pieces of rock and the ground. She activated the third tier and punched forward, a strange wave of pale blue and white near flickering energies spread out, leaving a layer of the ground entirely gone, dissolving the very air as it traveled forward, to the very edge of her dominion, spreading out and weakening as it went.

I wonder what it does to something that it cant just dissolve.

She eyed the dragon corpse but decided that disintegrating dragon scales may not have been the best idea shes ever had.

Active: Sentinel Reconstruction [Enhanced] 4th tier:

Send a healing pulse of mana into yourself or your ally with a touch. This skill can be channeled.

2nd stage: Your control is increased greatly, you can now focus your healing on specific parts of the body. As long as mana and health remains, your Sentinel Reconstruction will restore your body. Lose your head and see for yourself! Health loss and critical blows are recalculated due to the nature of your healing.

3rd stage: You have healed your body time and time again, knowing every cell and where it belongs. Sacrifice a large amount of mana to rush your healing to unprecedented speeds. Lack of knowledge about your body may result in heavy damage. Effect can be used on allies.

4th tier: You have healed yourself thousands of times. Have regrown lost limbs, have reformed lost organs. You have healed and protected your mind, all in pursuit of greater power. Healing to shield you. Healing to allow an exchange of blows, with those you would not otherwise be able to fight. A core ability for the Azarinth Healer, a terrifying tool for the Arcane Eternal. You have grasped the nature of Reconstruction. Not the healing spell of a savior, but a necessity for the battle healer you have become. Through the fourth tier, you have enhanced this ability to the pinnacle. Once active, the arcane will surge within your body. Not to heal wounds you have sustained, but to keep you fighting whatever enemy you face. To overwhelm the foes no other could dare stand against.

- All damage sustained is dealt to your mana instead of your health

- The first stage of Sentinel Reconstruction will generate mana instead of health

Through the fourth tier, you have enhanced this ability to the pinnacle. Once active, cosmic energies will surge within your body. Not to heal wounds you have sustained, but to keep you fighting whatever enemy you face. To overwhelm the foes no other could dare stand against.

If you reach 0 points of health, all remaining mana is used to activate True Reconstruction, containing your essence in a set of powerful cosmic barriers protecting your remains from harm and restoring your life. This effect may activate once every 24 hours.

- You cannot use the third tier of True Reconstruction on your own body

Category: Healing Magic Cosmic Magic

Thats True Reconstruction alright. Mana and soul restoration in the first tier, and the domain is mentioned instead of the other way around. Ilea formed a large sphere of ash and used her Deconstruction on it, finding a part of it dissipating with the spell. She activated her True Reconstruction and watched as the sphere reformed into its original shape, without her using any ash related magic.

That sphere formed quickly too faster than usual.

And I can heal spells and enchantments now, hmm.

Does that mean

Ilea summoned a golden barrier and sent an ash spear into it, webbing cracks forming after the second spear. Instead of using her Azarinth Barrier skill, she focused her Reconstruction onto the barrier and watched the cracks wane and vanish, a pristine golden barrier all that remained.

Alright thats pretty useful, coupled with the spell now giving mana too. Its basically just more natural regeneration at this point, generating more mana than it costs.

She grinned to herself, feeling the constant flow of healing. It felt more potent too, likely due to the straight upgrade but just as much due to the added Cosmic Magic category, providing another added 250% increase in the spells power.

And I can use the third tier against enemies now. Thats pretty scary.

Wait. If I reverse the spell if I heal health, mana, and my soul does that mean.

Ilea decided to test that later. Against something with a strong soul.

I dont know what to think about that straight up resurrection in the Fourth Tier.

Cosmic barriers that protect my essence, then the spell revives me?

What kind of message does someone receive if they kill me?

I suppose I wouldnt be dead really.

It also uses all of my remaining mana just like the Primordial Flesh at one point of health. Thats kind of problematic. Maybe.

And then theres the barriers.

Ilea activated the Fourth Tier and gasped, feeling the strange power flow through her. Slightly moving pale blue and white runes glowed on her body and mantle. She felt the rush, just like when she had first unlocked the Fourth Tier, and yet it was different. She felt like she was tapping into something that she didnt yet quite understand.

She deactivated the Fourth Tier and saw seven slightly flickering blue and white barriers come to life. Small discs around the size of her hands, orbiting around her in a vague circle.

Another thing to test against someone. Might just be another trip to Erendar before I show off to the Meadow, Ilea thought with a smile.

Active: Azarinth Awakening [Enhanced] 3rd lvl 30:

Your body glows with the power of Azarinth, increasing your resilience, speed, Intelligence and Strength by 85% [850%].

2nd stage: Your sight, hearing and sense of smell is also affected by Azarinth Awakening

3rd stage: You are one with the Azarinth. The skills upkeep has been removed. Instead you may overcharge it with your lifes energy. The amount depends on both skill level and health used. Excess health regeneration and healing beyond your full health can instead be used to overcharge Azarinth Awakening.

Category: Aura Body Enhancement Cosmic Magic

Nearly doubled in power.

Wait.

To Wisdom?

Ilea checked her status, her eyes going wide.

What the fuck.

She looked again.

Are you fucking kidding me?

Mana:558,299 / 1,525,425

She watched the number of her mana grow with every passing second, her Reconstruction still active of course as it now generated mana instead of using it, even without the Fourth Tier active.

Wisdom multiplied by Embodiment of the Arcane, then doubled by Meditation. That multiplied by five from the Cosmic Immortal.

One million.

And my regeneration is percentage based. Its super fast too. Is that just Reconstruction?

Ilea couldnt help but laugh to herself as she watched the numbers go up. Cosmic fucking Immortal, indeed.

What a bunch of bullshit, she thought with a wide grin. Endless mana.

And theres more still

Active: Transfer [Enhanced] 3rd lvl 30:

Immediately appear at a distant place. Distance based on the level of the skill.

2nd stage: The time between transfers is reduced greatly. No ground contact needed between transfers. Upon arrival, you may use up to 500 mana to create an arcane explosion damaging enemies and disrupting magical constructs and spells.

Category: Teleportation Magic

Ilea stood up and looked at the mountains. She focused on one of the peaks, kilometers away, and vanished.

She breathed in the comparably fresh air and looked around. She flew near the very peak she had looked at, seeing the distant dragon far below in the valley. She smiled and used her spell again, appearing and disappearing throughout the massive and devastated vale.

There was a limit, she found, but she didnt yet exactly know how far it was. Visibility was a factor, and she could already tell that clouds or even strong winds could disturb the so called clarity enough for her spell to not quite reach the target she had in mind.

The three charges were just the cherry on top, more than enough for her to keep up with any divine creature or eldritch monstrosity. At least she thought as much.

She tried the recall addition and appeared at her last location where she had used the spell. Ilea found that she could return to any original location used in the past two seconds, though the recall itself having a separate cooldown, effectively increasing her charges to four, with one destination being somewhat static.

But I dont need to see it, so I can go in, attack, and escape again if its been less than two seconds.

Transfer was already powerful.

She looked at the twelve minutes cooldown for her long range destinations coupled with the ten locations. If I can still use it to travel to my marks

She still felt them in her mind, and she could tell that they were available as well.

Now I can annoy everyone even more efficiently!

Active: Arcane Dominion [Enhanced] 3rd lvl 30

Category: Aura Perception Aura Cosmic Magic

A mana drain as well. Not like I needed more mana, Ilea murmured to herself. Oh, and of course I also drain the remaining mana from creatures I kill. AND its all improved when inside of my dominion, sure.

Im not complaining. I just feel sorry for anyone who faces me in battle.

She nearly missed that the element manipulation bonus had doubled from fifty to a hundred percent.

I did think something felt different with my ash.

Oh. Sentinel Core as well. Lets see. I just straight up dont have to use mana to cast?

Passive: Sentinel Core [Enhanced] 3rd lvl 30:

Category: Healing Body Enhancement Cosmic Magic

Right, figured. That mana regen was ridiculous, even with Reconstruction. How could I even spend all this? Spell cost in reduced by another ten percent too, and I dont need to be hit anymore by enemy spells. Just the sheer presence of them is apparently offensive enough to be absorbed, she thought and giggled to herself, once more sitting on the initial chunk of rock she had chosen.

Thanks for this, she spoke, glancing at the dragon corpse. But then I suppose its really thanks to everything Ive done. Everything Ive fought. Everything Ive survived.

Two more spells.

Passive: Eternal Sight [Enhanced] 3rd lvl 30:

Increases your perception and reflexes while fighting. To keep up with your faster moving body, the Arcane Eternal has to control it.

Category: Body Enhancement Cosmic Magic

Alright, I feel like this one is a little more reasonable. Three seconds and five times per hour. And

She tried it, activating her Timeless Perception. Instantly, she felt as if everything around her slowed. The three seconds passed as if in slow motion, the difference more pronounced than before.

Coupled with Perfect Synergy, its pretty crazy.

Health and mana steal, and I can reverse heal spells. Sure.

This Class is ridiculous. Lets see what the other two have in store
