I let out a low sigh as I tapped my pen against the notebook in front of me, my eyes tracing over the various runes I had scribbled down as I searched for a way to simplify and make this sequence more compact, quickening its cast speed and reducing some of the mana I needed by combining some of the runes together, but the problem with that was something similar to cooking.
There were portions that needed to be present inside the recipe, and they needed to be put in at a certain time; on top of that, you can only simplify things down so much before it begins to lose its potency, and again each collection of runes present in a single combined rune needs to work together in harmony for what it is meant to accomplish.
This was a difficult thing to do on my own, but thankfully this Palace was filled to the brim with people who were extremely helpful in guiding me towards the answer I was looking for, be it Leone, the Countess, or any of Leone's family.
Whew~
