Regression of Failed Prodigy

At times, the exercises left my bones groaning and my muscles burning. But when I tried to complain, she merely smiled and told me that flexibility and balance were far more important for a swordsman than raw muscle.


To my surprise, Galadriel's unorthodox training methods have proven to be a panacea for my physical and magical aptitude.


My body is now more limber and agile than ever before, with a more masculine and defined musculature.


But the benefits don't end there, as the exercises have also contributed to the synchronisation of my Mana Circles.


As a magician, I understand the importance of synchronising my Mana Circles.


 When a new circle is formed, it takes time for its rotation to match with the old ones. 


If they are unsynchronised, the mana transfer becomes chaotic, and drawing upon mana becomes a daunting task as the supply of mana would be different form the circles due to different rotation speed of Mana Circles.


Soon, I could sense that my circles were brink of complete stability. When my circles achieve complete stability within today or tomorrow, forging my third circle would be possible.


This would give me access to Third Circle spells that would make many things easier for me.


As I have been thinking all of this, I broke the stance that I had been holding for what felt like hours. 


With a deep breath, I focused my energy and channelled it into the Body Strengthening Spell.


As mana flowed through my Circles, I could feel my muscles growing stronger and more defined. With each passing moment, I could feel the power of the spell coursing through my body.


I unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks, the air around me vibrating with the force of my blows. Dust swirled around me as I continued to test my limits, pushing myself to the brink of exhaustion.


And then, suddenly, it happened. The mana in my Circles surged, flowing effortlessly and without any turbulence. I could feel a sense of satisfaction and triumph wash over me as I realized that my Circles were completely stabilized.


I basked in the satisfaction of knowing that all of my efforts had not been in vain. My stance was more balanced and my body more flexible.


I caught my breath and wiped the sweat from my brow, a voice spoke to me in my mind. It was Galadriel.


'If your Circles are now fully stabilized, perhaps it is time to attempt breaking into the third circle,' she advised.


I will do that but before attempting to forge my third circle, I wanted to challenge the knights of our estate first.


 I was eager to put my enhanced physical amplitude to the test and see how much I had improved.


After taking some rest, I changed into comfortable clothing that would not restrict my movements.


 I made my way towards the barracks and training grounds where the military personnel were stationed. The training grounds were located just outside the Wishmyth mansion. In order to reach the knights' quarters, I had to pass through the mage unit first.
