Shang had thought that he could use his Affinity in many different ways, and sure, there certainly were more refined techniques.

Sadly, the very refined techniques were just spells.

The ability to push the complexity of one's Affinity to the peak was literally what a spell was.

At most, Shang could slightly alter the use of his Mana.

With enough training, he could shoot out Darkness Mana.

With enough training, he could concentrate the ice and fire.

With enough training, he could absorb the light.

But that was about it. Anything more complex would be walking into the territory of spells.

Even more, Shang would probably need several months of training just to gain the control to unleash these slightly more refined uses of his Affinities. If he were to attempt to learn the most basic spells, Shang would need literal years to even learn the easiest one.

Why?

Because of his mind.

By increasing the power of the mind, one would gain a far greater connection with their Affinity, and one would be able to concentrate with far more intensity and for longer.

And Shang couldn't train his mind due to his warrior's body.

'At least I now have something I can do in my downtime. If I can't properly train in techniques, I can always focus on my Affinities. It's definitely not my priority since it doesn't increase my Battle-Strength by a lot, but it's better than doing nothing.'

'Anyway, I now have my Darkness ore and Light ore. I'm only missing two units of Fire ore and Ice ore. My priority should be to get those first.'

'Let's see. I have 227 gold and 3,440 Contribution Points. Fire costs 5,500 Contribution Points per unit, and Ice costs 6,750 Contribution Points per unit.'

' 24,500 Contribution Points. That's what I need. Based on my last excursion, that should be three days of hunting in the northeastern forest.'

Shang scratched his chin in thought.
