Reincarnated As A Sorcerer With Multiverse System

Arcana Decision

"Then what about my friends who don't know about this?" asked Arryn. He was shocked and worried about the condition of his three group mates.

“In each reference book, the risks are explained if you choose the wrong Arcana. If they're careful, they'll be able to do it right,” replied Quentin, walking up to Arryn while carrying a book about Arcana.

Quentin opened the book and showed the arcana items in each type. Before he could start crafting it for Arryn, Quentin needed to explain this important matter to him.

“Though I will guide you, you should know five items in the attack type arcana, starting from Spirity, Examiner, Bloodline, Yoaxin, and Cleave. Each item has a different status increase,” replied Quentin, pointing to the five red round items with a different symbol in the center of the circle.

Not only the attack type arcana, but Quentin also explained the heal and support type Arcana. He needed to explain the three because, according to Quentin, Arcana's healing and support were useful for Arryn's survival when fighting.

“For Arcana, heal consists of Lux, Crosslife, Purify, Alter, and Fier. As for support, namely Areacane, Secretlife, Lightspell, Orion, and Sarana," explained Quentin.

"Do I have to memorize everything?" asked Arryn.

Quentin explained that Arryn didn't need to memorize the names. Arryn just needed to know which items he needed and which matched his original magic. Quentin also told Arryn that he would understand all the arcana items as time passed.

“Those are the arcana items you should know about. Alright, we'd better start crafting your Arcana," replied Quentin, pulling a wooden chair while both hands placed the reference book on his office table.

Arryn began to stretch his right hand forward, his mouth moving to read a magic spell to open his arcana runes.

[Summoning System: Open Rune Arcana]

Suddenly a blue panel appeared in front of Arryn in the same condition as when it was in the library; none of it was filled. Quentin looked closely at the panel, though it wasn't very clear.

"All right. Now you look at this book,” Quentin requested, pointing to the detailed item section for each arcana type.

Arryn's eyes turned downwards, following the direction of Quentin's finger. Arryn could see the difference in the status increase in each item carefully.

“Now, before I choose a suitable arcana for you. I will let you choose five arcana items that you think are suitable according to your strengths," Quentin asked, trying to test his son's arcana selection strategy.

Arryn remained silent for a while. His thoughts and feelings were going wild, thinking about what items were appropriate for him.

If you looked at Arryn's goal of avenging his death when he was Alan, then Arryn thought of filling most of the circle with attack-type Arcana.

Spirity gives Arryn a 4.5 increase in ability power status and 0.8 attack speed. The Examiner gives an increase in status in the form of 2.5 magic power and 2.2 magic pierce.

Yoaxin also provides several status increases for Arryn, in the form of 2.5 ability power and 1.2 magic power. Bloodline provides a 10% increase in status for magic lifesteal and ability power of 2.5.

Lastly, Cleave provides an increase of 15% magic lifesteal and an attack speed of 1.2.

Apart from the attack-type Arcana, Arryn also saw differences in the healing and support Arcana. Arryn concluded that the healing Arcana provided many status increases in the form of max HP, life steal, magic defense, and armor reduction.

While the increase in status for arcana support is more for HP regen, magic defense, armor defense, and magic rage.

Quentin watched Arryn's face carefully. The man didn't know whether Arryn understood these items or not.

“Do you get it, Arryn?” Quentin asked.

Arryn nodded. He also said he had determined what items he thought could be applied.

Quentin was excited, with a smile spreading across his face, “Really? Then tell me."

"I chose Spirity, Cleave, Bloodline, Crosslife, and Lightspell," Arryn answered. Quentin nodded several times.

What Arryn put together really wasn't that bad. Crosslife items will increase Arryn's maximum HP status, and Lightspell to increase magic defense.

Meanwhile, the remaining three items focus on magic power and lifesteal. Quentin doesn't mind the support and healing arcana because they don't really have much of an impact in terms of visible impact.

However, Quentin disagreed with Arryn's arrangement of attack arcana. Lifesteal was an admirable stat, but it didn't match up with Arryn's original magic. Lifesteal can only greatly impact those who have original magic like necromancer/ summoning mage.

Quentin recommended that Arryn put together Examiner and Cleave. With these two items, Arryn gets an increase in abilities and magic power, as well as lifesteal and attack speed.

"Is there something wrong?" Arryn asked, concerned by Quentin's silent response.

“There's nothing wrong. It's just that you'll progress so slowly. You're only focusing on lifesteal in attack items. It doesn't suit your abilities," Quentin replied.

"Then what do you think I should use?" Arryn asked, confused.

Quentin pointed at the Examiner item with the symbol of three spheres forming a triangle, and the Cleave, which was a leaf with a wind line. Arryn looked carefully, including the status details given.

"Two are enough for attack items, use one more for magic rage," Quentin explained.

The magic rage that Quentin meant was Sarana, meaning Quentin's suggestions for Arryn's Arcana were Examiner, Cleave, Crosslife, Lightspell, and Sarana.

Quentin had actually set up another, stronger Arcana, but he couldn't do it, seeing that Arryn's arcana line-up almost matched his.

“How is it? You will get an increase in all attack stats and additional HP, magic defense, and magic rage," Quentin replied, sitting back in his wooden chair.

"What is magic rage?" asked Arryn.

“Magic rage will activate if your HP or MP falls below safe. You will feel great strength rising in your body when you are in a critical condition,” Quentin explained, Arryn nodded several times while looking at the arcana items in the book.

“Are you sure that this arcana suits me?” asked Arryn. Somehow his heartfelt anxiety, afraid that the arcana arrangement would not match.

"I'm sure," Quentin explained.

Arryn and Quentin looked at each other for a few minutes. Before long, Arryn agreed to Quentin's suggestion and started placing the items in the arcana tree.

Arryn's right hand touched each empty circle, selecting the appropriate arcana item according to Quentin's suggestion until all the empty circles were filled. The submit menu, which previously could not be pressed, can now be done after all Arcana have been filled in.

[You have succeeded in applying the Arcana]

[Arcana activated]

Arryn felt that something had entered his body, neither visible nor smelly. He felt his heart excited with the comfortable feeling that came together.

"What happened to me?" Arryn asked, asking while closing his eyes.

“That is the initial stage of adapting the Arcana to your original magic. Don't worry. Those adjustments won't have a fatal impact on your body," Quentin replied, closing the book about the Arcana as he walked over to his bookshelf.

The adjustment stage consists of two stages: the initial and finalization. The initial adjustment stage lasts about five minutes with different feelings for each magic user; some are comfortable, cool, cold, hot, anxious, restless, and the most extreme is dizziness.

Then comes the final adjustment stage, the finalization stage. The finalization stage will occur when the change of day occurs. So, Arryn will feel this stage when he falls asleep at night; many don't realize it because most of them are asleep.

About five minutes passed, and the feeling of comfort and excitement from Arryn's body began to fade. Arryn no longer felt that, and his body returned to normal.

"How do I know if the arcana is working properly?" asked Arryn.

"You need to battle with someone. Of course, you have to do it tomorrow," Quentin replied, taking a seat behind his desk.

"Why?"

“Because your Arcana didn't fuse at all until midnight. So, rest or go to the library to learn something."

Quentin started to open his document, writing down what he had done in the document. Arryn nodded; at least he believed what Quentin told him.

Arryn stood straight while looking at the arrangement of bookshelves in Quentin's office, "Can I have a look at the books?"

Quentin looked up at Arryn, pointing at his book stack. In the end, he lets Arryn find whatever book he wants.

"What exactly do you need?" Quentin asked flatly.

“Information about dimensional magic.”
