Section 8 The Beginning of Practice
As a contemporary sage, Kyeloa has considerable magical qualifications, but his actions are quite low-key, so his title of "Blue Sage" will be unwittingly changed to "Blue Hermit" by some people. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He has published many books on magic, most of which are for beginners and basic knowledge explanations, among which the representative works are: "Introduction to Magic", "Mana Enlightenment", "Magic Crash", "How to Shorten the Chanting Time", "I Flow - How to Find the Most Suitable Magical Attributes for Self-cultivation", "Time and Space - Trickery on the Four-Dimensional Plane".
Some people asked him, "As a great magician, why don't you write something high?"
Kylloa has his own unique opinion on this issue:
First, learning magic is the same as building tall buildings, and a large part of what you can achieve in the future depends on how solid your foundation is. Therefore, it is advisable not to rush to learn magic, and it is advisable to first establish a solid foundation and then gradually work together.
Second, in terms of the number of people studying and studying magic on the entire continent, there are very few people who have actually studied to the level of a great magician, and most of them are beginners or low-level magicians in magic. What these people really need is a book that teaches them how to understand magic, not a book that is very unapproachable and full of seemingly advanced knowledge. To be honest, people who have really cultivated to the level of a great mage, will they read Kylloa's books?
So combining the above two points, Kylloa decided to write only about the primer and basic subjects of magic for the rest of his life. Because of this, Kyeloa knows very well what it really takes for someone who has just stepped into the realm of magic. Melova has been following Kyllloa for two years, and despite her usual recklessness, she can already use the "Frost Sky Ice Condensation", which is considered a high-level magic. Of course, with her current mana storage, such a great spell would have to use up all her mana after just one use. The last time she was able to use it when she didn't have a lot of mana left was because Kyeloa only asked her to chant "Frostfall", which is the first half of the spell.
An innate attribute refers to the mana that has the highest degree of compatibility with a certain attribute and is able to condense that attribute in the body. However, in order to condense Mana in the body, it is generally necessary to use the magic of this attribute many times, and there are very few examples of Alicia who has condensed the holy attribute in the body itself. That's why Kyrloa says that Alicia is like Yedam Galle, the Saint of Light and the founder of the Dark Rites, because they have condensed the holy and dark attributes of Mana in their bodies since birth.
It was because of special cases like Alicia that Kyloa came up with the idea of teaching her magic. Kyeloa wanted to dig out as many possibilities as possible from Alicia, or he would feel that he had wasted this potential talent in Alicia.
However, Alicia herself did not see that Kylloa was obsessive. She was crouching on the bed holding the large, thick book that Meluva had handed her, and she was overwhelmed by the runic writing on the first page.
"Ah, I don't understand! Why do magicians have to use such unintelligible scripts? Can't they use Continental?" said Alicia, who couldn't help but go crazy as she practiced the pronunciation of various runes.
"In the earliest days, humans learned magic from dragon scripts, and in order to turn magic into their own, they rewrote it into runes. Kyeloa sat down in a chair beside the bed, answering word for word as a patient teacher.
"Then why not just use Continental?"
"Alicia, when did Continental become universal?"
"I think about it, huh...... Was it after the founding of the founding emperor?"
Nodding with a smile, Kylloa said:
"That's right. However, it was during the ancient kingdoms that humans learned magic, so runes were actually a common script at that time. ”
Alicia suddenly showed an expression of "I see", but to her surprise, Mei Lufa, who was fiddling with the potion on the table on the side, actually let out an "oh~~" sound. In the awkward silence that filled the room, Melus coughed quietly twice, and then blushed and continued to work on the homework that Kylloa had assigned her before leaving the house.
The sound of the test tubes clanging pushed the conversation between the two forward, and Alicia frowned as if she had thought of something and said:
"No, why is the text of magic written in runes, but the incantations you chant are in standard continental language that I can understand?"
"Oh, this~" Kylloa chuckled and continued, "This is more complicated to explain. In fact, when chanting, you can use any language. ”
"Any language is fine?"
"Well, with any magic, it can be summed up in four processes, and that is the perception, gathering, reorganizing, and releasing of mana. ”
"Oh?" This was Alicia's first encounter with the principles of magic, so she seemed curious. She subconsciously looked at Mei Lufa on the side, Mei Lufa felt that she was being stared at, turned her head to see the expression on Alicia's face, and immediately shouted with some shame: "I must know this!"
Also, this is the first of the primary, and if Melua doesn't even know this kind of knowledge, it really makes people wonder how she became a magician.
Kellloa continues: "The chant is the second and third steps in these four processes, which is the gathering and reorganization of mana. As the chant progresses, the magic that flows from the mage's body will form a magic circle to gather the mana of certain attributes, and complete the reorganization in the circle, and when it is finally released, you can see a variety of different magic forms. Kyeloa explained carefully.
"It's complicated......" Alicia couldn't help but regret her curiosity.
"Chanting is really just a condition for the magician to concentrate and complete the four processes of using magic, and the real factor that affects the success of a spell is the magician's own magic, not the language used in chanting. In the beginning, all the mantras were written in runes, but if you can understand and digest them, you can translate them into your own words and say them to achieve the purpose of chanting. ”
"The more you talk about it, the more complicated it gets. Alicia knew that she would definitely become a madman if she listened to it again, so she said impatiently, "Then it would be nice to change all the runes to Continental, it's so troublesome!"
"Actually, it's not that no one has tried what you said, it's just that the ancient text is concise and concise, and it may be more suitable to use it to express magic than the current continental language, so everyone kept the runes. ”
"Ahh
"Knock knock!" there was a knock on the door, and Meleva jumped out of her chair and ran to open the door, where she saw Daron standing with Alicia's holy sword in one hand and her greatsword in the other. He wore knee pads and shins, but only a light cloth shirt on his upper body.
"Alright, the brain-settling time is over, come with me to the garden to exercise. Daron pointed behind him with his thumb and smiled at Alicia.
Finally able to temporarily escape the word hell that Kyllloa had brought, Alicia stretched and closed the book and jumped out of bed.
"When you practice swords, you can also think about what you have learned today. Kyleloa's voice came from behind her, and Alicia grimaced before closing the door and running out.
In the garden behind the kitchen on the first floor, there is a small stone paved circular grass, just right for two people to practice swordsmanship.
The holy sword was thrown from the air, and Alicia hurriedly took it down with both hands, and then officially drew the sword from its sheath for the first time. The silver face of the sword reflects sunlight into the flowers, drawing a trail of light.
"Come on, you're welcome, attack me as much as you can, and let me see what you're up to. Daron said confidently.
"Okay, senior brother. Alicia said this because the teacher who taught both of them swordsmanship at the beginning was Hediway, "Then I'm welcome!"
Alicia rushed over with her sword across her waist, and Daron, who saw her posture, shook his head with a wry smile, and said:
"The butt is raised too high, the center of gravity is too forward, so that if the opponent dodges the attack, you can easily lose your balance. ”
Alicia ignored it, and continued to accelerate towards Daron, who slowly put down the big sword on his shoulder, and drew a beautiful small circle at the moment when Alicia got close, and went directly to Alicia's back, and the blade of the big sword in his hand quickly touched the back of Alicia's neck, and the winner was divided in one round.
"The posture you hold the sword is also wrong, now you are holding a long sword in your hand, not the armor-piercing sword you used before, so don't keep thinking about 'stabbing', but use 'slashing' as a means. ”
Taking a step forward, Alicia pulled away from Daron and re-assumed her prep pose.
"Come again!"
The sound of fencing in the garden continued until the sun had set and the sky had completely darkened, and Kyeloa and Melufa had already finished their lessons, walking from the house to the kitchen door to watch the two practice their fencing from a distance. Alicia was out of breath now, but Daron was only sweating, and his breath was not in the slightest.
"Do you want to continue? If you continue, I'll put on a light spell. Kyeloa was almost unable to see the two in the distance, so he suggested it.
"No, that's all for today. Daron picked up his sword and said with a smile, "Alicia, you have made a lot of progress, but you must keep practicing." ”
Alicia realized that she had finally finished the day's training and sat down with a slack ass. She gasped for breath and said weakly:
"Too tired, do you have to be so tired every day?"
"Being tired with just such a little exercise can only mean that your physical strength is not good, and you will not feel so tired if you practice every day in the future. Daron smiled and held out a hand to Alicia sitting on the floor, "Go take a shower, I can smell the smell of dinner coming from the kitchen." ”
Grabbing the palm that was a little rough for a girl, Alicia flashed a hint of cunning in her eyes, and pulled him to the ground with a hard pull on Daron's arm, and then rode him with his back to her neck.
"Haha, I finally won once. ”
Alicia writhed her body and cheered excitedly.
"Hmm~~ Alicia!" Daron groaned in pain as his face was sunk into the grass.
"Hmm, what's wrong? Do you want to throw in the towel?"
"It's not...... You're sitting on my neck, that ...... I can feel it...... "Now that Alicia is riding on the back of Darlon's neck, the physical touch is transmitted to Daron without reservation.
"Ahh
Meleva hides behind Kyle in fear, regretting that she didn't have time to do a reinforcement spell on Darlon's head, and looks at Tarron's entire face sunk in the dirt, wondering if it would be better for her to go up and use healing magic to save him.
