''This…''


    Erix frowned. ''This is not like the usual Conceptual powers. Why is it like this?''


    Erix couldn''t feel the exact substance and essence as he could feel in the usual Concepts he had seen so far.


    Isabe conjured giant spinning drills made of Magma containing potent power.


    ''It boosted her magic power directly?'' Erix was stunned. ''What kind of concept is that?''


    ''Conceptual powers aren''t supposed to do that directly. They apply a type of power to attacks or activities that meet a Concept''s criteria, making that attack powerful and giving it the benefits of that concept.


    ''But Isabe''s Conceptual power directly boosted her magic power.''


    Soon, everyone saw the giant Magma Drills spinning terrifyingly shooting toward the Shark monster.


    Those drills struck the Shark''s pentagon shield that it created to defend itself, but one of the drills drilled past it and broke it while the other three giant Magma drills continued.


    The Shark tried to escape, but the drills obviously followed it, the attack''s speed outssing the Shark''s speed as its dodging and escaping tactic failed.


    *BOOM!*


    All three drills struck the shark monster, causing an explosion. One of the drills entered inside it and exploded, spreading intense me inside it.


    ''Yes! It worked!'' Isabe clenched her fists. ''It was the right idea to make two different types of drills, one type more oriented towards thicker Magma so they could solidify and explode into burst chunks by freezing the power of the Shark, while the other two drills bearing more me power activate inside to deal pure me damage.''


    The Drill-type attacks are something she spent time developing, using her learned knowledge of formations from Rin and Erix, and other skills'' formations.


    That four drills skill was equal to near top Tier-5 in terms of pure offense-type skills.


    Moreover, Isabe knew that the Ice element''s nemesis was Fire!


    If water could douse the fire, then the fire could melt Ice! This shark had three attributes, but ice was its main and most powerful. It had high ice resistance as well.


    To defeat it, she needed maximum me power and the me power in Isabe''s two other drills burned the shark''s organs and reached its brain, killing it swiftly.


    The effects of her 3rd realm me and 2nd realm Magma affinities were boosted by her 2nd realm concept, allowing her to defeat this foe with 20k higher Power Level than her and higher defense.


    The dead body glowed and shrank before turning into an orb.


    Meanwhile, Isabe leveled up to 238, gaining 10 stat points.


    "I did it!"


    Isabe grinned as she returned with a p of her wind-attributed wings towards Erix and others.


    "Let''s see what you get from it," Zoe rubbed her palms while grinning. "Or I can open it for you."


    "Nope," Isabe chuckled and infused Prana in the Orb of Lost Ancient.


    It glowed and turned into motes while manifesting a key.


    [Key of Lost Weapon]


    _Effect: Use the key on an item to give it a random Lost Ancient technology form.


    "This is new!"


    "Yeah, we got resources, and some items from other Orbs, but never got something like this."


    "Maybe because this monster had a higher Power level? It''s the only one we got which had 74k power level."


    Meanwhile, Erix released a sigh, attracting everyone''s attention.


    "I still couldn''t figure out your concept."


    Isabe mischievously smiled, making her look beautiful with her slightly mature face and vibe. "This is a secret for you to figure out."


    Erix wryly smiled.


    However, he didn''t know that Isabe was just embarrassed to say it and was not prepared for it.


    ''What do I do…'' Internally Isabe sighed. But she had already spent time contemting it and put it in the back of her mind.


    She decided to live the same way she living with her secret for now.


    ''Whatever happens will happen when the timees. I don''t want to think about it now,'' Isabe thought.


    "Erix, how do you use this? Any idea?" Isabe stretched her hand holding the key.


    "It''s an interesting item. How about you make your staff have physical contact with it?" Erix suggested.


    Isabe nodded as she tried it.


    The moment Key touched her staff, Isabe felt a magic trail producing in the key.


    Raising her eyebrows, she infused Prana in that trail, causing the key to activate. It got absorbed into her staff, instantly coating it into nano motes, but physical.


    Her staff broke down into those nano-motes before a powerful aura fluxed from it, surprising everyone.


    "Woah, is this stuff gonna transform into a robot?!" Tony eximed.


    "Or maybe a mecha?" Roy grinned.


    However, the motes started shrinking, making everyone confused.


    But everyone soon got the answer as the end result turned out to be a small purple star-shaped thing.


    It glowed and had beautiful violet patterns on it.


    "It became like this…" Isabe was stunned. "I hope it still contained the property of the weapon you made, Erix."


    "Let''s inspect it," Erix dryly chuckled. He also wasn''t sure. "Well, even if the staff''s effects and properties didn''t retain, I can make another one, haha."


    "Oh, it''s Tier increased to 6!" Zoe shouted in shock. "First Tier-6 weapon among us. Haha, we also have a chance to get that key and give our weapon some technology."


    [Star Mage''s Badge]


    _Tier-6


    _Grade: Legendary


    _Attribute: Fire, Magma, Earth, Ice, Wind, Water.


    _Base Magic Attack: 10,200 + 300% of user''s Magic stat.


    _Attack form: Elemental orb projectile attacks.

    _Technology Form: Star Mage Badge.


    —> As long as this badge is attached to you physically, you can conduct all powers of it and project it through your body part as if you holding the staff.


    _Technology Trait:


    —> Supernova Mark: Absorbs residual elemental energies and stores them in the badge. Once it reaches full, you can use a Supernova Mark on your next attack, boosting its power by 50% to 100%.


    "This item is great, alright. How did the staff turn into this badge and still retain all properties and effects of that stuff?" Erix rubbed his chin as she was surprised, even shocked. "It also increased basic attributes like Attack and I can feel that it can release Isabe''s attacks more efficiently."


    Isabe smiled and took the badge. "Hmmm, where do I put this badge?"


    Erix looked at the badge and then Isabe''s head as he got an idea and chuckled, "I found a perfect ce based on its size."


    Taking the badge, he put it on the left part of her head after putting a lock of hair behind her ear.


    Isabe''s heart raced with Erix this close, but she remained calm. "Hair clip, eh? That''s a good idea indeed."


    "Yep," Erix grinned and looked at the star badge with beautiful flowery-type patterns on it. "It looks perfect on hair."


    "Yeah, Be-chi. That looks good as a hair clip, haha."


    "It also won''t get in the way in that ce."


    "I want to see what other kinds of transformation that mysterious key does."


    Erix said, "Alright, let''s move ahead. We''ll find more monsters and kill them while moving constantly this time."


    "We''ve used one hour, so only nine hours are left before the buff runs out," Isabe nodded. "Let''s proceed ahead."
