Chapter 498 Pushing The Limits

Andar was not concerned about this reaction as he was already expecting it, Gray Will came into play and as if he was picking through a lock, he rotated the bangles in opposite circles, until he felt the connection deepening between them and brought them closer.

As they grew closer together, the opposing force they were sending out increased dramatically until the force erupting from it began to crack the ground below him, creating a violent blast that resembled a miniature erupting volcano.

He hastily tripled the shield of air around him as he had not expected such a violent reaction, that turned out to not be enough, and he quadrupled it and began fighting against the forces being generated by the resisting bracelets.

Mira looked up briefly, her eyes widened before returning to her work. 'You are a monster! You're a freaking monster!' She kept repeating inside her head. She did not know what level of Talisman Andar was creating and by the surprised look in his beautiful eyes, he was also not aware of the true nature of what he had just made.

"Others struggle their entire life to create a fraction of what you can achieve. Yet here you are creating miracles, and you are still surprised." Mira muttered to herself.

She would have found such an occurrence funny before, but she knew that although Andar seemed complacent about a lot of things, there was this invisible desire that was driving him to become the best of the best. Except for those times she had to force him to play, he had sank every waking moment increasing his power and knowledge, such a drive was impossible for most people.

She did not want him to fail, and she quietly chanted words of encouragement for him inside her head. He deserved every right for his unique genius to be shown to the universe. Even though he was robbed of his prize of a Supreme technique, it was impossible to hide gold within glass.

This reaction from the Talisman Andar was building was observed by those around him and soon the understanding of what was happening spread among the crowd, making them know that Andar was not just making a single Talisman, but multiple Talismans with a set effect.

Also, the Talisman he was creating must be very powerful for the reaction it was given out was shattering his surroundings. It was impossible to know if he would be able to complete it in these conditions.

Andar had never created a Talisman with a Set Effect before, as he needed to conserve his money and use it to procure other things he might need. This miserly nature of his was now biting him back at this moment as he knew there would be a great opposing force to merging a Set Item for the first time, but his own felt more powerful than usual.

Andar silently vowed that if he succeeded in his tests, he would never hold back any resources when it came to learning. He would use his entire Origin Shards and look for other methods to earn money.

With his potential, it was a rookie mistake to avoid gaining all the resources he needed when he had the chance, his excuse before was that he could get access to higher-level material in a short amount of time, and using his funds now would be a mistake, but even Andar had underestimated the rate of his growth, and the high-level materials he thought he might need in the future turned out to be what he needed now at the present.

He could handle the force now erupting from the bracelet, and it did not take long for him to understand how much the force was increasing as he drew them closer to each other.

The amount of power that would be erupting from these bangles the moment they touched and activated their Set Effect would be unprecedented and according to his calculations, it could easily exceed what a Rank 3 Mage was capable of handling, and closer to the powers of a Rank 4!

Andar did not know if he would be capable of holding such forces in check, he had not pushed himself to his limits before and he had no idea how strong he was. There was no reason to ever try.

He looked at Mira, she was not yet through with her Talisman, and if he continued with his merger the commotion would be too much for her to withstand.

Mira must have sensed his gaze for she turned to him and understanding filled her eyes, and before Andar could protest, she decisively stopped her crafting.

"What are you…" Andar could barely cry out but it was already too late.

Her Talisman exploded into bits and fragments, turning to those Acolyte around still taking their tests, they looked at her eyes and they all decisively stopped their actions, and for a short while, loud bangs echoed throughout the testing area as everyone stopped their testing, all of them in solidarity.

No one here felt they had lost out on failing this test. To watch Andar achieve history was far more monumental than any test they could take, also if someone like this felt he owed them a favor, they also did not forget that the commotion that resulted from Andar's action would make it impossible for them to Craft, and it was better to leave the stage for him to shine.

Andar's heart shook, even if he knew that not all their intentions were altruistic, it was impossible for him to ignore this great favor given to him.

This expectation from those who gave up their chances for him firmed his resolve, and he looked up at Mira, she was grinning, somehow he knew she was expecting this outcome, she was forcing him to succeed, even if he did not think he was capable.

Andar fell in love with her at this moment.

His eyes firmed and his heart steadied, his heartbeats slowed until he could barely hear them, he did not know his limits… Well, it was time to replace out.
