Dante was surprised by the effectiveness of this 1st rank spell. On paper, it was like a very weak version of the famous Planetary Devastation, but the most it could do in the hands of a Novice Mage, even a peak one, was to disrupt, slow, unbalance, and trap.
It was like trying to run forward with a vacuum cleaner behind you, pulling you back. However, due to the fact that Dante was space element specialized, the spell was already boosted by 50% per each rank Dante was.
So as a 1st Rank Novice Mage, his 1st Rank spells were 50% stronger than the base. At the 2nd Rank Adept Mage, it was 100% stronger than the base. At 3rd Rank Advanced Mage, it was 150% stronger than the base.
'The base' here did not refer to the spell itself but rather the spell in the hands of an average non-specialized mage at the same rank. So a 2nd Rank Adept Mage with three Spiritual Cores of Fire, Poison, and Ice who used this spell would only be able to use it at base strength.
New month, so here's a deal for y'all.
Top 15 overall in golden tickets - chapter length increased to 2k words, chapter release rate stays the same.
Top 5 overall in golden tickets - 3 chapters a day.
Number 1 overall in golden tickets - The top 3 golden ticket donors get to choose the next power system(s) Dante will get (must not be copyright bait).
If we get to number one, I will maintain all this and add more benefits in regard to the trending ranking.
