Well that was...slightly underwhelming.

It seemed instead of powering it up, all she did was expedite its growth into a rank 2 skill. It already had a single nucleus, and the other parts had stopped expanding, remaining entirely neutral in color. Ash frowned, her tail slowly dragging itself along the ground in thought. Useful to note at least, that she could forcibly power up lower rank skills through a little manipulation...but in the end It left her with very little answers, and more and more questions about how everything worked. Without something else to compare it with, it was of course, going to be difficult.

So she'd need to make something to compare it too. She could try making fire from nothing - but that would be easier if she could gain a better understanding of how these colors affected the property of the spell.

Creating a new spell from nothing and watching it form would give her valuable information as to how elements interacted with such a thing. Bringing her tail as close to her claw as she can, she placed her stinger close to the Mana Orb as she could, letting a few slow drops of Venom be excreted from her stinger, attempting to coat the Mana Orb in poison, still keeping Mana Vision and Mana Sense active long enough to see how the Mana reacted with the venom as she tried to fuse the Mana and Venom together.
