Although he didn't actively use magic, mana still filled Toz's body, and since his eyes were part of his body, they also enjoyed the benefits of being passively strengthened by mana. The mana vision, which had previously strained Toz's eyes and mind, could now be active for longer, thanks to his mana supporting his body.
Not only that, since the mana filling his body and supporting the mana vision was a mixture of his six elements, Toz had an easier time separating the elements in the air into those he didn't have access to and those he did have. His own mana supporting the mana vision also allowed him to more easily discern between all the elements since it seemed like the mana vision had become stronger.
Thanks to being able to separate the different elements more clearly, Toz realized that he could try and deduce where he was or what the circumstances outside the cell were. At least what they were or where he was when he was thrown into the cell and isolated within.
The mana vision also let Toz see that no new mana came into the cell. It was completely isolated. He also noticed how the enchantments were slowly absorbing the mana in the air to power and sustain themselves. It happened so slowly that Toz only noticed after looking carefully at the mana closest to the enchantments.
Toz looked closely at the mana around the cell to see if he could tell anything from it. He did notice how different enchantments preferred different attributes, so the mana in the room had probably been intentionally mixed to create a suitable environment for the enchantments to power themselves for as long as needed.
The elements in the room were an even mix of most elements, but Toz noticed two obvious exceptions. The first was the absence of void attribute mana. With the properties of void mana and how it dissolved the boundaries between different attributes, and how it could probably interfere with the workings of enchantments if they weren't specifically designed to handle void mana, it wasn't weird for void mana to be excluded from the room. Toz's identity as a void mage might have also affected the decision since void magic, if anything, could probably undo the seal on his mana pool. Not that he needed it anymore.
The second exception was the ice attribute's absence. Toz's thoughts instantly went toward Yill. If she had been present during his imprisonment, he could understand that the ice mana would rather stick close to her than stay inside the cell. Toz couldn't be sure since he didn't know anything other than the clues Yill had left behind. But a transcendent was probably like a magnet for mana in the Mortal Realm, and without something similar to mana vision, it would be impossible to know.
The thought of Yill made Toz remember Brunswick and his eyes. Toz wondered what the difference between his mana vision and Brunswick's sight was. But he did know that Brunswick could see more than the surface-level information of items and happenings, and he could see magic differently from others. Toz's mana vision and Brunswick's sight were probably different, but Toz was pretty sure that Brunswick would one day be able to see mana just like Toz was doing. And he probably wouldn't have to torture his mind in order to do it.
As he thought about Brunswick, Toz realized that he didn't know what had happened to him and got slightly worried. But since the cats were doing alright, hopefully, Brunswick would be too. Since he wasn't sure he would be able to break out of his cell or if doing that would even help him find Brunswick, Toz decided to set aside any distracting thoughts and focus on himself.
Toz closed his eyes to let them rest before he started working on his automatic training. Although his mana lessened the strain on his eyes and mind, he would still get tired, especially with how hard he stared at every last speck of mana.
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Before he tried doing something that would require putting even more strain on his mind, Toz wanted to be fully rested. Injuring his mind yet again in such a short period of time would probably do more bad than good. Strengthening it by pushing it to its limits and then letting it recover was one thing. But overexerting himself before his mind could recover completely and letting the mind rest would only harm it.
When he felt like he was ready again, Toz opened his eyes and, like when he dragged the string of fire mana into his body, focused only on a tiny swarm of lightning mana until it was the only thing he saw. He had to concentrate harder than the last time during this part to prevent himself from subconsciously using his own mana in the process.
While he couldn't use his own mana to draw in the swarm of lightning, he could use it to aid his clone in its tug-of-war. Toz wasn't sure how he should use mana to support the clone at first, but he took inspiration from the way his combination magic reinforced his body by layering his body to create a suit of lightning mana around the clone.
The lightning-clad clone had an easier time grabbing and pulling the swarm of lightning into Toz's body. And before he knew it, the swarm of lightning was already getting dragged inside his body.
Toz was ready to use the clone to try and control the lightning as soon as it began acting up. But without him even doing anything, his own lightning mana rushed to where the swarm of lightning mana was crossing the border between Toz's insides and the outside world.
Toz's lightning mana rushed toward the foreign lightning mana and covered it, even the parts that were still stuck on the other side of the border. After completely covering the foreign mana, Toz's lightning mana assimilated it with itself on the way toward the mana pool. When it reached the mana pool, the foreign mana had transformed into mana he could control with his will, and after entering his mana pool, it got purified and transformed into fifth level mana. All without Toz doing anything except attracting the foreign lightning mana to his body.
