Greatest Legacy of the Magus Universe - C.436 Pentagram

436 Pentagram

Rosalind, the matriarch of the wood spirit village in the spirit world and also Yavia's mother, flew toward Adam with a faint smile. "That title is strictly reserved for my clansmen."

Adam hurriedly apologized and sincerely bowed, "Forgive me, my lady."

"Huhu, no need to be so nervous." Rosalind hovered beside her daughter.

She looked around the place, wondering just where she had arrived when suddenly her gaze landed on Elysande, who was looking at her with absolute astonishment.

"Is this your place of abode?" She asked flatly. Then, without waiting for the woman's reply, she added, "Pardon my sudden intrusion."

Of course, she didn't mean what she said. She was just being perfunctory.

Elyande, on the other hand, was thunderstruck by Rosalind's sudden appearance inside her manor. From the subtle energy waves emanating from the wood spirit, she was certain that the latter was a very powerful Magus!

A Rank 3 Magus! She thought in alarm, wondering what this spirit world creature was suddenly doing here.

When she saw the striking resemblance that Rosalind had with Yavia, she guessed, They're blood-related, it seems.

While she was deep in thought, Adam glanced at Rosalind and respectfully asked, "My Lady, what brings you here?"

"Curiosity," Rosalind replied tersely.

"Uhh…" Adam was at a loss for words. Before he could further inquire, Yavia flew toward him and gently sat on his right shoulder.

"I spoke to Mother about all the herbalism techniques you taught me," the little wood spirit began. "She was very fascinated by them and wanted to see you do it in person. So she tagged along with me this time."

"That is right, Magus Constantine," Rosalind chimed in. "Just ignore my presence. I am but a mere spectator."

Adam's lips twitched incessantly as he thought, Ignore your presence? You're a damn Rank 3 Magus! Are you joking with me?

On the other side, when Elysande heard Rosalind's words, her shoulders slouched ever so slightly. She was hoping to ask this mighty wood spirit to help cure her father, but now it seemed that it was completely out of the question.

Being a Magus one entire rank below her, Rosalind didn't dare to request anything from her.

Yavia tightly pinched Adam's cheeks and yelled, "Stop daydreaming already! Tell me, what did you call me here for?"

Adam snapped out of his thoughts and nodded, "Ah, yes. We're going to perform a poison extraction ritual."

"A ritual?" Yavia curiously asked with a tilt of the head.

"That's right." Adam nodded and pointed at Brigham lying unconscious on the bed behind them. "Lord Flynn's muscular and cardiovascular systems have been poisoned. It's slowly eating away at his life. We need to get rid of all the toxins."

Yavia gasped as she quickly turned her head in Brigham's direction. "A Rank 3 Magus poisoned to such a degree? How is that possible?"

When Elysande heard this, her fists involuntarily tightened. Her eyes flashed with boundless fury. Just who would dare to poison my father?

"What do you want me to do?" Yavia asked excitedly. She was going to learn yet another new thing today. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

"Nothing for now," said Adam, "let me prepare the ritual first. I need your assistance in the latter parts."

"Okay!" Yavia clenched her fists.

Meanwhile, Elysande and Rosalind stood on one side of the room. One had an anxious expression plastered across her face, while the other's eyes were twinkling with curiosity.

Adam first grabbed a bundle of sage and rosemary from his earring. He coated them with mana before burning them. Then, he began walking around the room, making sure that the smoke reached every corner.

Sage and lavender were normal herbs, but when infused with mana and burnt, the fragrant smoke wafting from them had the property of purifying the space and dispelling any lingering negative energies.

Then, Adam walked to the center of the room—the area he had just cleared—and started building a type of formation that he had seen in the memories of the expert he had just recently absorbed.

First, he took out sun gems and moon rocks. He crushed them into powder and mixed them together.

As he drew a large circle on the ground with the powder, he began explaining to Yavia who was still perched upon his shoulder.

"The circle is a universal symbol of protection and infinity. It creates a boundary that is intended to keep the negative energies away and contain the positive energies within."

"That explains the 'protection' part. What about the infinity? Is it because the circle is round with no clear beginning and end?" The little wood spirit asked curiously.

"Indeed!" Adam nodded with approval. "It symbolizes infinity and the cyclical nature of life and energy. It connects the ritual to the larger forces of the world."

After having drawn the circle, Adam began drawing a pentagram inside.

"The five-pointed star represents the five fundamental elements of the world - earth, air, water, fire, and wood," Adam began.

"Each point of the pentagram corresponds to one of these elements, emphasizing the balance and harmony among them."

"Balance and harmony…" Yavia repeated the youth's words, her eyes shining with brilliance.

After having drawn the complete formation on the ground, Adam got to his feet and dusted his hands.

"When a pentagram is enclosed within a circle, it combines the protective and unifying aspects of the circle with the elemental and spiritual significance of the pentagram."

Adam then arranged the magical ingredients that corresponded to each of the elements and placed them on the five points of the pentagram. He scrutinized the ritual formation a few times before finally confirming that everything was in place.

"Alright, half the work is done. The latter half is the crucial one," he said to Yavia.

"You can count on me!" The wood spirit confidently stated.

Adam then glanced at Elysande and said, "For the next part, we will require Lord Flynn to be placed at the center of the ritual formation."

Elysande nodded without hesitation, however, what Adam said next cause her to be dumbfounded.

"Oh, and he also has to be naked."
