After what felt like a few dozen years, Rael finally managed to figure it out. He did feel like a bit of a dumbass at first, since he was already considered very smart.
But by that logic, if someone a bit more stupid were to attempt something like this, they'd probably spend a few eons trying to figure it out.
On the bright side, Rael did so, and now, whenever he cast that skill, he was met with a slight delay, followed by a powerful pitch-black blast that wiped out everything in sight. This time, it managed to pierce outside of the tower, revealing a thick, starry landscape as well as several dozen pitch-black eyes.
It reminded him of some Eldritch games he had played. Though, these eyes were perhaps just a little more creepy than what he had seen in those games.
Anyhow...
"Aside from the delay that I never managed to figure out, I think I did it now," Rael said out loud.
Gaia, who was resting beside him, let out a sigh.
