Of course, Leo was the most ignorant about all of these things.

At this moment, Leo was on a horse while deciding whether to use the Fire Lotus or Earth Crystal first to improve his cultivation.

Well, he just discovered that using Magical resources was much more beneficial to his cultivation compare to using Mana stones.

This finally made him understand why, despite consuming many large Mana stones, his cultivation seems to only improve by a bit.

Teacher Marvin had taught to them before, that Mana stone can indeed improve Mage cultivation, really, but what the Mage really needed in their cultivation the most is not only more Mana Capacity but at most an improvement of Magic power.

Although the Mana stone still belongs in the list of Magical resources, they actually belong in the Pure Mana category, which is only for the improvement of Mana Capacity.

While on the other hand, Magical resources such as Fire Lotus and Earth Crystal belong to the Element Mana category, specifically the former belongs to Fire Element Mana and the latter in the Earth Element Mana. The Element Mana category is also more commonly known as the Magic Power category, since it focuses more on improving a Mage Magic Power rather than the Mage Mana Capacity.

And because a Mage has a different affinity to Element Mana, using Magical resources with Element Mana is much more beneficial to them, since they can use the specific Element Mana they needed the most for their cultivation. And naturally, since their affinity is for that specific Element Mana, they receive twice or more Magic Power when consuming such Element Magical resources compare to the other which also includes the Pure Mana as such kind of Mana is neutral.

Unfortunately for Leo, his affinity is all of the Element Mana, because of the Red Cube that can use all of the Elements.

Unexpectedly too, he can\'t actually just choose any random Magical resources just because he has the affinity of all the Element Mana. Because if he uses more Fire Element Mana, his Fire Elemental would improve more, and if he uses more Earth Element Mana, his Earth Elemental would improve more.

Although there seems to be not a problem with that, each Magical resource is actually specifically separated into different levels each, specifically Common, Uncommon, Rare, Holy, Legendary, and Mythical level.

And as his cultivation improves, the benefits from each different level would also decrease at the same time, until eventually, it would only have a little to no effect on him anymore, which would also mean the power of all of his Elementals would become different from one another.

Because of that, he needs to prioritize the Elemental that he needed the most, putting him into the situation whether to use the Fire Lotus, Uncommon Magical resources, or the Earth Crystal, another Uncommon Magical resource.

Although he can simply use both, he was actually already in the last push before finally becoming a 1 Star Mage after these past few days of continuous cultivation using the Magical resources they have stolen from the Twilight Bears, specifically he had consumed around less than 100 of Magical resources.

And the moment he becomes a 1 Star Mage, the effect of Uncommon Magical resources would decrease, hence causing the improvement to the not chosen Elemental when he still a No Star Mage to not be the same as before anymore.

A week has already passed, and these last seven days he hadn\'t done anything aside from cultivating.

Chief Lago had also said that his foundation is already perfect enough to improve his cultivation, so he didn\'t have any reason anymore to not improve his cultivation.

And because of that, not only did his cultivation improve in leaps and bounds, but he had understood a lot of things about the Red Cube.

The Red Cube actually not only allows him to summon Elementals and to convert the Mana in a Mana stone to something compatible to him, but it also offers a wide variety of other abilities, not for himself though, but for his Elementals.

His idea before that each elemental has their unique abilities aside from their Element Manipulation is actually correct. Like for example, the Earth Elemental can detect some solid base Magical resources or any Magical Beast with Earth Element, the same goes for the other Elementals in detecting Magical Beast with the same Element as them.

Also, at this moment, he can already summon 20 Wind Elementals, which is also equivalent to 10 Earth Elementals and unexpectedly also Nature Elemental, 6 Water Elementals, and 5 Fire Elementals.

He had already used 29 Magical resources with Earth Element Mana for the Earth Elemental, because it\'s the most common used Elemental he currently has, and the defense was still the most important problem he currently has right now too, which the Earth Elemental at this moment can finally do in an appropriate way, unlike before where it couldn\'t last two attacks from some powerful Assault Magic spells.

19 Magical resources with Fire Element Mana for the Fire Elemental, because in the nearby future he would definitely be mostly relying on the Fire Elementals for firepower. Moreover, he also needs to go back to Yellow Forest, to retrieve the Yellow Anaconda\'s eggs he had hidden before, and that wilderness greatly improves Fire Element Mana, so his Fire Elemental would become very useful for him at that time.

15 Magical resources with Wind Element Mana for the Wind Elemental, because he had realized that the Wind Elementals are like having assassins and scouts that he can thoroughly control with him at all times. Not only that, poison mist, fog, and anything airbase that is so hard to detect can\'t post any threat to him that easily anymore due to the Wind Elementals\' ability to detect them and also to control them.

15 Magical resources with Nature Element Mana, because he had unexpectedly discovered that Nature Elemental could actually do a Small Healing spell and that combining 5 Nature Elemental he can have an Average Healing spell, which if he can further improve, recovering his injuries, energy, and spirit can then be easily replenished. That was also one of his problems, because he hasn\'t yet fully adapted yet to his new life as a Mage, he realized just how much he needed support.

20 Magical resources with Water Element Mana, because he realized just how hard the aquatic battle was. If ever he faces an ocean battle once again in the nearby future, then having Water Elemental with him would really be a huge help for him.

Also, all of his Elementals has now an improved perimeter range of 10 meters diameter from before, which was a meager 5 meters.

And he also realized now that every time he reached another Star, like for instance from 1 Star to 2 Star, he would be getting the same amount of Elementals similar to the other Stars, so if he finally becomes a Galaxy level Mage, he will most likely be able to summon 200 Wind Elementals, which is equivalent to 100 Earth Elementals and Nature Elementals, 33 Water Elementals, and 25 Fire Elementals. And maybe, just a theory at this point, he will also be able to discover more Elementals like Dark Elemental, Light Elemental, Lightning Elemental, Magma Elemental, and many more kinds of Elementals.

He really can\'t help himself becoming excited every time he thought of having a wide variety of Elementals. The moment such day finally comes, he will definitely become a Mage that his peers can\'t defeat that easily.

As of now though, he needed to focus more on improving himself, which is right this moment he needs to choose whether to use Fire Lotus or the Earth Crystal.

If he uses the Fire Lotus, then he will finally have 20 in his Fire Elemental. But, if he uses the Earth Crystal, then he will have 30 in his Earth Elemental, which is half as many as the Fire Element.

"Hey, Levi!" Leo finally decided to ask Levi for help.

"Yes?" Levi opened his eyes and began stretching his body.

"What do you think should I choose, to improve my Earth Elemental or my Fire Elemental?"

"Ummm..." Levi began thinking, "Earth Elemental is really good, especially during these past few days, since it really helps in minimizing the rate of injuries we have received due to an almost impenetrable defense all around us. But the Fire Elemental is also very useful, especially in firepower. It can basically blow up a 5-meter thick trunk of a tree into smithereens."

"Exactly!" Leo nodded his head as he also fully agrees with Levi\'s claim. Both Elementals were really helpful.

"However, don\'t you realize what I\'m?" Levi asked with a doubtful look at Leo.

"Eh, what do you mean?" Leo curiously replied.

"I\'m a Leviathan, basically firepower is also where I\'m really good at. So, you should focus more on defense right now because in the nearby future I will add more to your firepower. Moreover, Earth Elemental is a balance Elemental, it has a strong attack power and at the same time defense, so it would really be a huge help to you, especially since you\'re still so weak as a Mage."

"Hahahaha, I also agree with little Levi\'s claim!" Ash suddenly butted in, making Leo\'s eyes turned towards her out of curiosity, "Hehehehe, it\'s like this... The reason why I still remained in the 3 Star Mage level is that I still lack Defensive Magic spells to do Magic Integration with myself.. So, if you don\'t want to waste your Magic Integration to some useless Defensive Magic spells, then it\'s much better for you to improve your Earth Elemental to improve your defense."
