Rowen pulled out another tomato from his space, the fresh scent calming his restless mind. He bit into it, letting the faint surge of focus wash over him.
Alright… Let's try again.
This time, instead of forcing only earth, he reached out for something different—the gentle, vibrant flow of wood element mana. Unlike the heaviness of earth, this one felt alive, almost like sap coursing through unseen roots. When he drew it in, a soothing green warmth mingled with the solid brown strength already within him.
For a moment, they resonated. The two forces didn't clash; instead, they wrapped around each other like tree roots gripping soil. Inside his body, the outline of his mana ring grew brighter and steadier than before.
Rowen's eyes widened. It's working!
