No matter how many twists and turns Carpenter has in her mind, she knows what is most important to her.
Compared to the past, she has already embarked on a much better path, and her character is still firm. She will not waver because of those mistakes.
So, just like her promise to Russell... half a month later, Carpenter quietly became an official Mage.
And indeed, she fully integrated the composite spell formed by combining Dance of Light Spell, Sound Illusion Technique, and Dismaying Gaze into her Mental Sea as the foundation for her advancement.
Mages also have special tricks to circumvent limitations like lengthy spells before mastering fast casting... Long spells are meant to resonate with the Law, allowing mages to control it.
And for casting spells to succeed, one must naturally control it with spiritual power.
Everything must go through the Mental Sea.
