'My God, what is it?' Finn said in wonder as he communicated with Marla telepathically.

  They were inside the waves of energy; there was a huge amount of energy coming toward them or at Micheal. It had been only a few seconds, and it was already in such amount, he couldn't help but wonder what will it be in a minute since the energy was constantly increasing.

  He looked at Micheal, whose only silhouette could be seen with a tornado of energy covering him, which was getting thicker and bigger as the time passed.

  'Him taking such a huge amount of energy is not a good thing; soon, it will increase enough that even his body would not be able to bear it,' Marla replied. Hearing her, he couldn't help but nod; he liked this thing about Marla; she has never been the one to waste time on the words, always getting right on the point.

  'He is quite elaborate with his preparations; I am sure he has some plan to deal with it too,' Finn replied. 'Yes, he is quite prepared, but even with all his preparation, chances of him forming the core are less than 50%,' Marla said, stating the cold hard facts.

  While Micheal had not explicitly told them he was creating the core, it was easy to guess that seeing the resources he had needed.

  'Yes, the chances of him successfully creating the core are low, but I am confident this little guy will be able to do it; he has to do it for his own survival as well as the survival of the whole academy,' Finn said with a sigh.

  'I hope you are right, old Finn,' Marla said softly with a hopeful voice.

  Buzz!

  A faint buzzing rang out in my temple, and forth Diamond seal had released its energy, and it had directly gone for my core instead of my body and soul as it usually does.

  I had succeeded in creating the fourth diamond seal one and a half months ago, but I had stopped it from releasing its energies. It is quite a hard thing to do, but I was able to do it with the help of the method I had read in the Hermes library.

  It is also recommended that one should use the energy of the diamond seal in the core formation; it makes the core stable and helps in synchronizing all the elements.

  Within a few seconds of infusion of diamond energy of the diamond seal, the core began to stabilize before it had stopped shaking altogether. With the unstable factor gone, its merge with nine elements had increased further, and the energy it began to absorb increased again, giving me even more difficulties in breathing.

  Diamond Energies continues to pour inside it, and so are energies from outside, which again started to bring the changes into the sphere.

  The sphere started to become bigger and now had turned cleary liquid from the gaseous state; though it had not turned wholly liquid, around twenty percent of it remained in a gaseous state, and there seemed to be no change in it despite the passing the time.

  It took more than a minute to absorb all the diamond energy from the diamond seal before it stopped releasing the energy and went back to its place while the sphere kept spinning and sucking and more energy by second.

  Buzz!

  A few more minutes passed by in relative calm without any problem, other than immense energies cocooning me, making me feel even more breathless when the sphere buzzed faintly like runes would and faint pull released from it.

  The next second, a silvery blazing ball materialized beside the core; it was the source of my fire ability. This time, I did not feel any pain during the process, just uncomfortableness of not feeling my fire ability at my fingertips which had been with me since the day I had bonded with Ashlyn.

  Dhub!

  A silver fireball streaked toward the sphere, and a second later, it had crashed into it before seeping inside. Just as it did, the whole sphere shone silver for a couple of seconds before turning back to normal, but these couple of seconds have brought huge changes into the sphere.

  The faint layers of solidness have appeared over the liquid part, like a film of ice appeared on the lake; combined with the gaseous part of the sphere and colors of nine elemental, the core begins to look like a planet.

  The look is quite surprising, but the surprise is very much welcomed; the creation material is showing its abilities.

  Buzz!

  I was just admiring it when the sphere had buzzed again, and this time too, it had summoned out things; the last things it would summon.

  My four rule powers have emerged, the blood-red ribbon of the killing rule, the leaf of the healing rule, the feather of the Sun Rule, and a black swirl of the swallowing rule. All my four rule powers appeared, radiating the aura of the Grandmaster stage.

  The four rule powerful did not move toward the sphere to merge with it; no, they started to funnel their power at the sphere instead of merging with it.

  The sphere had absorbed its power without repelling even a single bit, and with it, it started to grow even stronger and finally began to release its aura. The aura is faint, but it is shockingly powerful; I had expected this power from the finished core and not the unfinished one, which is still growing.

  Seeing that smile couldn't help but appear on my face; the core is very close to being finished; it had already absorbed half of the Rule sources, it won't take long before it absorbed it whole before it reaches the final stage, which is the safest.

  Time passed by as the sources of rules had become fainter and fainter as the sphere absorbed more and more of its energy before it disappeared as the core had finished absorbing all the rule sources, making the most challenging step complete.
