919 Further Experimentation

"Mngh…"

Feeling his body return to its peak condition, Valyr gradually roused his consciousness from its slumber, slightly regretting the fact that he'd gotten up.

Nevertheless, as the time he spent in the Blacksmith Guild gave him a couple of insights in the Truth Weaver Scripture, he planned on making use of those insights to try and breach the next stage.

"Dual Trinity…" muttered Valyr to himself the moment he felt his consciousness fully awaken, prompting him to stand up from his bed.

Taking a brief look outside, the young man's eyes widened in slight surprise, only for his lips to curl up in a wry smile soon after.

"Nighttime, huh…" Valyr let out a chuckle, briefly pondering over the time he finished the quota Julian gave him.

'By the time I was finished, it was around an hour or two before noon…' thought the young man to himself, eventually nodding in understanding.

'Considering that I've spent two days less forgoing sleep this time around, I guess it all adds up.'

With the confusion in his mind settled, Valyr swiftly went through his daily routine, eager to make more progress in the Truth Weaver Scripture.

Ordering a slightly heavy meal from the inn, the young man empowered his various Intents through the scripture once more, making great use of the stage of Trinity.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Going through the six Intents under his arsenal one by one, Valyr faintly nodded in satisfaction the moment he felt the Truth Weaver Scripture working its magic.

"I spent the past three days using the Truth Weaver Scripture alongside those two Intents." Valyr recounted what he'd done before heading back to the inn. "Though I found some time to make use of the other Intents through the scripture, I still mostly revolved around using the two of them."

"Because of that, using those Intents through the Truth Weaver Scripture feel a bit smoother, as if it takes significantly less effort to use than the other Intents," surmised the young man through what he felt, thinking about putting in a bit more effort on his combat-related Intents.

Making up his mind to allocate some time on refining his control over the four Intents, Valyr was just about to begin spending time on it, only to be disturbed by the meal he ordered being delivered to his room.

After thanking and giving the one that delivered his meal a small tip, the young man hastily devoured the meal he ordered, spending only a few minutes relishing the meal before returning his attention to the Truth Weaver Scripture.

Whoosh!

Having made use of the Truth Weaver Scripture many times at this point, it did not take long for the young man to go through the entire process of weaving the Intents together, choosing the specific Intent to empower after that.

Wanting to balance out his control over the six Intents, Valyr spent the entire night going through the four combat-related Intents in cyclical order, arriving at what he felt like a satisfactory level by the time the sun rose.

Feeling as if he'd solidified his foundations on the Truth Weaver Scripture, a hint of excitement briefly flashed on Valyr's face as he brought up information on the next stage in his mind.

"Dual Trinity…"

From the name of the next stage itself, Valyr would only be at that stage officially if he were to weave six concepts together.

But of course, just like achieving Trinity, he would have to accomplish a few things first.

Such as weaving four or five concepts together.

Swoosh!

Thinking about how he achieved both Duality and Trinity, Valyr decided to follow the concept of Azure Energy once more, activating all of his combat-related Intents with that thought in mind.

"Weaving four concepts together would mean that I've reached the level of Tetrad," muttered Valyr to himself, going over the information in his mind as he began to weave the four concepts together one by one.

"On the other hand, weaving five concepts together would allow me to reach the level of Pentad."

"After that would come Dual Trinity, or Hexad… I should focus on reaching Tetrad first, though."

Although the level of Tetrad wasn't an official stage in the Truth Weaver Scripture unlike Trinity and Dual Trinity, its effects were still written in considerable detail on the scripture.

According to the information Valyr obtained from Vaughn, achieving Tetrad would effectively allow him to boost the effects of the Intent he chose by 15%.

As for Pentad, that figure increased to 18%, with Dual Trinity bringing that number to 20%.

With a 20% boost to the effects of his Intent, Valyr's Intents would effectively be one grade higher than they were as long as they were 5th Grade or higher.

"If I were to reach Trinity of Trinities… who knows what level of power my Intents would reach." Valyr chuckled at the thought.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Seeing as he'd already weaved three of the four Intents together, Valyr began to weave the fourth one through the other three, understandably taking a careful approach in doing so.

Fwoosh!

However, just like his earlier attempts at achieving Trinity, the young man did not succeed from the get-go, failing at his first attempt.

Thinking about what he'd done wrong during the weaving process, Valyr tried again once more, this time taking a slightly different approach from the one he took before.

Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh!

Failure after failure, Valyr continued to attempt reaching the level of Tetrad, slowly but surely making progress every time he watched the entire weave crumble before his very eyes.

Though he was disheartened at some points, the young man continued to persevere, reminding himself of the hardships he went through, the reasons why he was willing to go such lengths.

With that, an entire day passed with him attempting a weave of four Intents over and over again, the progress he made in doing so marginal at best.

Nevertheless, he did not give up.

Two days.

Three days.

Four days.

"This is it."

Whoosh!

Activating the four combat-related Intents who knew how many times at this point, Valyr took in a calming breath as he skillfully weaved three Intents together, easily reaching the stage of Trinity.

Looking at the remaining Intent he had yet to weave, the young man took another deep breath, gathering strength from all of the insights he'd obtained from the incessant number of failures thus far.

"Haah…" Letting out a deep exhale as he composed himself, Valyr placed all of his attention on it, slowly but surely weaving the fourth Intent in all the right places, gradually bringing out the untapped power containing within it.

By the time the weave was complete, Valyr adorned a relieved smile, immediately sensing its improved effects the moment he chose the Intent of Shadow Energy.

"Tetrad, complete."
