"Not that part…," Vernisia quickly said.
"Oops, my bad," Zevien said as he hollowly smiled.
"Hmm, our speed and way of carving spell formation are still not matching perfectly," Vernisia wryly smiled. "Still, we are doing better than our first hour. Despite the mistakes, our progress is faster together."
"Mhmm," Zevien nodded. "We can finish it in the next thirty minutes. Only the last part is left."
In front of them was a spell formation in the shape of a circle with eccentric patterns, but the circle was not complete. Vernisia and Zevien were still forming patterns of the [Mist Blowing Punch] magic spell.
After thirty minutes, they finally completed the spell formation of [Mist Blowing Punch] and used the spell on the same tree that was already beaten up badly because of the previous two spells.
"You do it," Vernisia said.
"Alright," Zevien nodded. He triggered the spell formation as it appeared in front of his fist and then disappeared into his hand.
Zevien then punched towards the tree as a misty punch conjured from his fist and shot towards the tree.
*Boom!*
The misty fist hit the tree and broke it with a powerful impact as the broken part flew off the hill. The mist lingered around the part that broke off and fell off the hill.
"Great! It worked," Zevien smiled. "Now, let's create these three spell formations again and infuse them into the runes."
Two minutes later, Zevien and Vernisia finished creating spell formations of [Nether Touch] and [Decay Poison Mist], respectively. Since they had already created them once, it was easier to create them a second time.
Afterward, they created spell formation of [Mist Blowing Punch] together in a minute.
Zevien took out the chalice and three runes from his storage ring before infusing all three spell formations into the runes and then putting those runes into the chalice.
"It's time," Vernisia said with anticipation showing in her eyes.
Zevien was also the same as he nodded and started shaking the chalice. The chalice started faintly glowing and emitted ethereal blue sparks that started flowing around it. The runes inside it also started glowing and turned into motes before combining.
When Zevien finished shaking it five times, the chalice turned into sparks and disappeared as if it had died after getting used, and the rune inside it fell down.
"Those three spells combined into one…Let's see," Vernisia muttered as she picked up the rune. "But how do we learn the spell from this rune?"
"Maybe infuse mana in it? This rune is very different. Those three runes were light gray stones, but this rune is a white rune with patterns," Zevien said while looking at the rune curiously.
Vernisia infused mana into the rune, and right after that, a spell formation with a spell intent in it appeared in her head. "Yep. Just need to infuse mana."
However, when she looked at the information about the spell, her mouth opened wide in shock. "Wow, this spell…Here, take it and see."
Zevien took the rune and quickly infused mana in it to see the information since Vernisia's reaction increased his anticipation. A second later, he also got information about it, and a spell formation with spell intent appeared in his head.
Afterward, he looked at the panel with details in his head and was shocked. "Holy shit! This spell is powerful! How come the combination resulted in this?" Zevien almost shouted in shock.
*****
[Ruination Mist Cannon]
->Type: Offense-type Tier-4 magic spell
->Effect: Consume 1000 mana to manifest a cannon barrel attached to your hand from which you can shoot a cannonball by consuming 8000-10,000 mana. It can deal devastating damage. It deals more damage to defense-type spells and explodes into a ruination mist with destructive properties that can reduce defenses. The cannonball can also deflect incoming magic spells, but it will explode upon coming into contact. But you can still control the ruination mist after the cannonball explodes.

"If we weave this spell into our magic core, we won't have any space left for any other spell," Vernisia wryly smiled.
"You need to learn a tier-2 or a tier-3 defensive spell," Zevien nodded. "Your defense is weak. You got two control-type awakening spells from your first magic labyrinth and two pure offensive awakening spells from your second magic labyrinth. What you require is a powerful defense."
Vernisia crossed her arms over her chest and grinned. "I think I will learn a powerful tier-4 defense-type spell. I'll have to remove other spells aside from my awakening magic spells, but that's fine. My combat set is ready with this defensive spell."
"But you already learned a tier-2 fusion spell…" Zevien was speechless.
"Screw it. It was a mistake," Vernisia snorted cutely. "I got enough control and damage with my awakening spells. So I'll just learn a powerful tier-4 defensive spell. You gave me this idea."
"Fine. That's good as well," Zevien wryly smiled before looking at the rune in his hand. "I will learn this spell because it's simply too good to ignore for an offensive assault. I should be able to keep my Brilliant burn since it's a tier-1 spell and still learn this spell."
"Yep. It's best that you learn a high-tier spell because you have a large reserve of mana because of your cat transformation," Vernisia nodded. "I won't have large enough mana reserve any time soon to use other spells after using my future tier-4 defense-type, so I'll have to learn a defense-type spell that can last longer around me after one cast."
Zevien rubbed his chin thoughtfully for a few seconds before a spell came to his mind. "[Roving Aegis Guard]."
"[Roving Aegis Guard]? Never heard about it," Vernisia shook her head, but her eyes showed curiosity, "but from the name, it sounds like a perfect choice for me."
Suddenly, Zevien and Vernisia heard some sounds and looked to the side before seeing several flying boats coming towards the Abode area. It was already night, as it's been almost 12 hours since they entered Zevien's magic labyrinth in the morning.
One mini flying boat flew towards Zevien and Vernisia's hill.
"You all finally returned," Zevien smiled as he saw Tigger, Dan, and Erica on the boat.
"Yeah," Dan grinned as he showed a V sign with his right hand. "Erica and I succeeded in spirit binding after we used the [Spirit Bind] spell on each other."
"You all entered the trial? Shouldn't there be many people more powerful?" Vernisia was surprised.
"Right," Zevien nodded as he was also confused.
"You two missed out on a good show," Tigger laughed. "Headmaster Noril tyrannically announced that nobody will enter the mountain before all students finish their trials, and he even showed his power."
"Right," Erica nodded before sighing in awe. "He is way more powerful than any 1st class magician considering that even his students are 1st class magicians."
"Nobody dared to oppose him," Dan said as he clenched his fist. "I wonder when will we reach that level?"
"We will reach it," Zevien smiled as he looked at Vernisia.
"Yep," Vernisia nodded. "No matter the difficulties, we have to push forward. For instance, Zevien and I decided to learn a tier-4 magic spell, hahaha," Vernisia grinned, showing her white teeth.
