The new version of the blade had a sense of power when Wolfe was holding it, but it didn't give off that same sense of danger in the area around it that the more powerful version had.

"What do you think? Is this version suitable for use and distribution? Does it give off an aura that you can feel at a distance?" Wolfe asked Priya, who was carefully studying everything that he did.

She took a few steps closer and leaned toward the blade. "It only gives off an aura in the half metre surrounding it. If you get close to the blade, you can tell it's dangerous, the same as the staff, but nothing like that monstrosity that you produced earlier."

That was reassuring.

Wolfe smiled at her and placed the blade back in a sheath, then carefully hung it from her hip. "There we go, safe and sound. On the first try, I didn't put any sort of restraints on the Inscription, so it just tried to activate to the most powerful level at which I could sustain a [Lightning Storm Array]. That turned out to be a mistake, and it would be clear to anyone within hundreds of metres that the blade was present, even when not in use."

"That's not exactly useful when there is a whole forest full of magical creatures, is it? It might scare most of them away, but you couldn't bring it hunting with you, and it would warn anything that was powerful enough to be a threat that you were coming." She agreed with a regretful look.

The spell took quite a while to inscribe, so you couldn't just do it at the last minute, which made it more of a showpiece than anything unless they were going to equip an entire army unit with them and challenge a Fortress City or something.

Priya shook her head to rid herself of that thought. The Covens were technically on their side. In fact, she was still part of the Sylvan Coven Army for another month and a bit until she would be honourably discharged after her term of service for not filing her renewal paperwork.

Hanging around Wolfe was going to get her in trouble one of these days. His attitude of "I will just do it because I can" wasn't precisely Coven approved, and they would need to get along with Coven Leadership at some point.

Possibly not this year, and maybe not even for a few more after that, since they were out in the Wastes, where the Coven didn't really care what happened to them, but with the rate that everyone was growing, it would soon be impossible to hide the number of powerful witches from the nearby Coven forces.

Powerful Witches could sense each other from a distance. Their aura was like a beacon to other Witches. So, if they gathered too many Rank Two witches and started adding Rank Three Witches in the next year or two, it was inevitable that someone would notice, and the Coven Leadership would start sending expeditions to the Fae Forest to see what was going on.

Once they started, they wouldn't stop, so the deal that Wolfe was making with the border villages of the Myrrh Coven would help them a lot. It would keep them from looking too closely since their people already had contact with the region and could assure the major cities that it wasn't a danger when the reports of powerful magic users started to come in from patrolling units.

The problem would come from the Sylvan and Morgana Coven units, who would both be stationed nearby during the next Monster Tide or threat of invasion.I think you should take a look at

That concern could wait a few days, though. The new weapons spells that Wolfe was learning from the book that Kira had given him were simply incredible.

"What is the next spell on your list?" Priya asked Wolfe, who had the little hardcover book out again and was carefully flipping through the pages.

"I was thinking of another close combat spell. It's similar to the one that I just finished, but instead of being cast on a weapon, it's designed to be cast on a soft leather glove. It looks interesting, and it's a Gravity Magic ability, so I can use it.

There are a bunch of Earth and Water Element spells in here that I simply can't use at all, which is a bit of a disappointment, but I can tell that the book was designed for anyone to use, so they included a bit from every Element, though almost nobody can use them all."

"Not even the mighty Magi can use all the Elements?" Priya teased him.

"Well, maybe some of them. But not lowly old me. There are also limitations on how many you can advance your aptitude with as well. The mind can only handle so much, so you can move one aptitude to Adept or higher every three ranks." Wolfe explained.

"That puts an end to our dreams of using every possible spell. But it's better to master one Element than to try them all at once and end up mediocre at everything. Which one are you going for?"

Wolfe pointed to the blade on her hip. "Lighting. I've already got it to the standard that will prevent me from advancing another Element thanks to a treasure that I obtained from the Myrrh Coven witches, so there likely won't be anyone better than I am with Lightning Magic for some time."

Hopefully, he didn't jinx himself. But now that he was Adept in Lightning Magic, he should be ahead of most people, no matter what their rank was.

"We should eat before you get into another spell. It's nearly dinner time, and we've already scared the others enough times today. You should have seen how panicked they were when you swung around that crazy lightning blade. It was leaking so much power that it was glowing, and we all thought that it was going to melt the blade like a plasma torch." Priya laughed.

Wolfe smiled back at her. "Why do you think I was waving it around? I had to make sure that it wasn't going to."
