Once you start learning so magic, you truly dont expect your life to be riddled with the sa stupid problems that affected you before. So, when I wake up with a terrible pain in my neck, Im surprised.
Wouldnt you think that once you start leveling up and doing that kind of stuff you wouldnt get neck pain from sleeping on a bad pillow?
What now? Do I have to invent cervical pillows?
And how long did I sleep anyway? I look at the enchanted clock that Clodia gifted , and I notice its 4 PM. I slept an hour and a half, or so.
Im feeling better.
The whole fiasco with Lucinda really put a dent in my mood.
Shes beautiful and smart. Plus, the first ti I looked at her, I imdiately felt like she was the perfect candidate to be my future wife.
But what am I supposed to do? I cant date or court soone whos an. I have enough issues in my life without adding a an person to it, dont I?
One of said issues is the book that currently rests on my nightstand. I wish it was so erotica, to be honest. It would have caused less problems so far.
Now, I must tell Lucinda Im not going to teach her how to multi-cast because she was an ass. Oh, sure. Lets go tell her that after we relentlessly flirted with her, hired her as a lawyer, and even told her we would probably teach her.
Let soone shoot in the head right now, please. Put an end to my suffering.
I look at the window, since there was a whole world out there. It was ssy, but magical. It was full of romance maybe but also a big pain in the ass.
Thats why I decide to look at the book.
Im not in the mood to be told what to do, who I am and what my future should be. But Im also not in the mood to stir up any trouble in the outside world.
Wassup, book, how you doin?
The book flies in front of and opens in the middle.
Description: simul-casting [Lights] is the most appropriate exercise based on your evaluation by the The Omnium Compendium! Your last attempt gave life to a superior [Light] spell. Now, you must take one of the great challenges in advance. Wasting your talent is a mortal sin. And with a mortal [Thunderbolt] you shall be rewarded if you slack off!
Requirent: learn how to simul-cast at least three inferior [Light] spells in a month.
The description of the previous assignnt appears. Slightly below it, the book adds sothing new.
You completed the howork assigned to you well in advance. Magister Mulligan would be impressed by his disciple.
You receive a prize for such a great deed!
Huh, a prize.
Im not that excited.
Not being zapped to death is already sothing.
But I wouldnt mind sothing nice. I wonder if there is a chance that Ill get a physical prize. Maybe its a magical wizard robe?
The prize is an even bigger assignnt!
Why do I even bother?
The pages flip and the book materializes new ink.
The road to mastery is hard! You will need to practice different matrixes, more and more complex. However, [Light] is the foundation for everything else.
You will need to practice spinning, shape-changing, dynamic movents, coordination, and many other cantrips!
Magister Mulligan prepared 529 cantrips to practice! And you qualify to practice them all!
What?
WHAT?!
How many?!
Once you have practiced all the cantrips, you will finally have the necessary foundation to start practicing magic properly! And dont go learning so inferior spells outside the Omnium Compendium if you dont want to suffer at the hands of the [Thunderbolt Curse]!
Whats this stupid nerfing?
So, lets see if I got this right:
This is an extrely powerful self-teaching relic that should impart insane knowledge onto you. However, the sa Relic gives you stupid tricks to strengthen your foundation. Now, what would happen if I were one of those wacko adventurers who needed to survive? Or what if I were simply thrown in a dangerous spot? Would I flicker so light at monsters, while they delightfully chewed on my bones?
And let guess; there is a very strict deadline on this stupid howork assignnt.
Be careful, new apprentice, there is a very strict deadline on the assignnt.
Well. It is what it is.
Only by pushing against the boundaries can a [Mage] truly shine!
Description: you will have nine months to strengthen your foundation as a [Mage]. Magister Mulligan would be proud of such a hard-working disciple!
Do they have normal months here?
Like, if there are nine days a week, are there still twelve months?
And why didnt I ask before?
Well, assuming that a month still has around thirty days, it should be
Requirent: learn how to perform all 529 cantrips in the next nine months. Ask the book to teach you the cantrips.
Days remaining: 333
So, wait. Isnt that more than it should be?
I do so quick math in my head. I an, the math is quick. I am slow.
Thats like thirty-six sothing days per month? Thirty-seven? What the hell?
Its a pretty number, at least. 333, I an.
Did I get all the cantrips because of my exploit? I should have waited maybe, simulate so diocrity. Once again, working hard doesnt pay off, does it?
Book, show cantrip number one.
If I want to make it, I need to learn what, two cantrips a day? One and a half maybe?
The first exercise Magister Mulligan has put down is to make two [Light] circles one after another at the sa speed for a full minute.
How do they have the notion of a minute?
I turn toward the magical clock and, indeed, there is a hand ant for seconds.
Well, how difficult can it be to"
Oh, shut up, shut up. Shut the hell up, Joey.
Why, why.
Why would you say that?
