Sienna couldn't go along with Carmen’s passionate exclamation and give this magic the name of a spell because this was still just a new type of power, not an actual spell.0

However, Sienna did think that there was a need to give this new type of power a name. This power was neither mana nor dark power. It was a power that had been created by combining the two through ancient methods that had been stored in Bloody Mary’s memory.3

For now, Sienna decided to give it the name Soul Power.4

She had tried to repeat the experiment a few more times after that, but nothing like what had happened during the first time around reoccurred. The creation of the soul power itself was a smooth success. Her attempts to control the soul power also went well. However, because of that, the soul power didn’t start moving on its own like before.0

‘What could it have been?’ Sienna was lost in thought as she moved the crystal of soul power here and there.1

Could it be… that she had gained some sort of enlightenment after becoming overly immersed in the magic? Had she become so absorbed in focus that she entered a state of oneness with the magic and had managed to get a glimpse of what it could be? Or else, had miracles started to pop up around her as she grew closer to becoming the Goddess of Magic?3

Sienna came up with all sorts of different ideas, but she couldn’t settle on an answer. In the first place, she now felt suspicious about whether or not the soul power truly had been teaching her how to control it. Could it be that she was so immersed in what was happening with the magic that she had fooled herself into thinking that it was moving on its own? But then, what was with that sound of laughter?2

‘I don’t have any clues,’ Sienna thought in frustration.0

Even after giving it a lot of thought, she still couldn’t find a possible answer. So Sienna decided to just give up on that line of thought for now. Instead, she began to experiment with the methods for how to apply the soul power now that she was able to control it quite easily.2

The simplest and most intuitive method was to use soul power in place of mana. It wasn’t just simple and intuitive; it was also an easy experiment to conduct, and Sienna quickly managed to produce results. The outcome turned out to be even more powerful than expected.0

Usually, all low-level circle spells would perform at the same power level, even if someone like Sienna was the one casting them. However, when Sienna used soul power instead...12
