By the time he had reached the mausoleum door he had gained twelve levels and he felt like his growth was amazing.

He must be past the average by now and may even be approaching the top players he assumed.

No matter the case he would need the power he held as he wanted to take out Diana once again.

All of these undead and even the cave itself had changed a lot in the higher difficulty so he knew that the boss would have changed even more.

As he entered hecsaw that the area was covered in shadow mana that was denser than anything he had seen so far.

Absorbing it would be very beneficial to him.

When the mana was gone he saw that beneath it all were crystals that radiated green mana and as soon as he had taken away the shadow element the mana thag was converging on this place would start taking on this element.

Before doing anything he wanted to see what it was.

When controlling this green mana he felt that it was actually very soothing which did not make sense for something that would be associated with necromancy.

Absorbing the mana into his body felt even more incredible as he noticed a surprising detail.

'My health and stamina are recovering faster?'

The more of this mana he absorbed the more it would increase his regeneration.

He was amazed when he figured out what this element must be.

'He said she had a powerful life affinity, is this life mana?'

As he absorbed more of that mana he got something even more shocking.

With this notification he was caught off guard so much he stopped absorbing the mana.

Now that he saw this strange new accomplishment he wanted to go further.

He started to absorb the mana grom those stones like a vacuum.

He even placed his hands on the stones to absorb all of it as quickly as possible.

He would have to figure out how he could use this mana but since he could create spes already he figured it would not be the most difficult thing in the world to make healing spells.

After absorbing one entire stone his affinity sat at 20% and with the rest of the stones in that room he estimated each one would eventually bring him to 80%.

It took him almost twenty minutes of avoiding the coffin to absorb every last stone and by the time he was done he figured out that he was bad at estimating.

The second stone despite having ths same amount of mana only brought him to 30% and each stone provided less and less until he sat at just 53% on his life affinity.

It was still incredible but that was it.

Now the only thing that remained was the boss fight.

He touched the stone lid and began to create his spells to bombard her the moment she appeared as usual but something was off.

The inside of the coffin was glowing with a blinding green light and she had new equipment when she floated out of the coffin.

He cast his spells to shatter her skull but some green aura redistributed the shadowfire mana across her body in ways he had not anticipated.
