The God Slayer shook his head an continued to sip on his stew. [color=00746b]"No, keep it up. I'll get used to it eventually."[/color] Unexpectedly this was actually good training for Nolan. If he puts up two months of this then he'll surely get so desensitized to it that his focus will sky rocket! However that was the furthest thing from his mind. What he was thinking about was his method of increasing their power tremendously, but there is a risk. While Karn wouldn't face any of the risks, Nolan on the other hand takes all of it and potentially could lose his mind and then cease to exist. When he learned he absorbed the gods' messenger's Shaman Magic he had studied up on it, reading every source he could get his hand on. The taboo of this magic was to never absorb souls to prolong one's life span or else they will enter a state of madness and then soon their souls would implode on itself, killing the mage in the process. What Nolan hypothesized is that the souls of the wandering dead could be absorbed not to prolong one's life, but force the growth of the second origin then a mage could obtain it. That is that they don't absorb the souls to prolong their life in the process. 

Nolan wasn't going to explain it to him. If Karn knew how much Nolan was at risk then he would never accept Nolan's help. That guy was too much of a good person for his own good. [color=00746b]"You did a good job. It'll help me fight in the games, but I know there will be even more powerful mages in the games as well. I've been hypothesizing on how to become stronger faster and I think I cracked it. There is no risk for either one of us so what do you say?"[/color] Nolan about there being no risk, no risk for Nolan that is, but he knew how naive Karn was so he didn't expect him to figure out that he lied.
