2nd Volu, 4th Chapter The Zealous Heart 1st Part
6th month, 4th week, the day of Earth.
Ever since I started going to my principal magic training ground the Paudal Wetland Belt about a month had passed.
The Prism Slis, possessing Origin Magic, gave more delightful surprises than what I had expected.
Those guys can coalesce with not just the Prism Slis, but other Slis as well.
On the days of Origin, the Slis belonging to six other elents sprang out, too, and those guys coalesced with all.
What of the skill points?
Lets assu a Sli possessing Origin Magic Lv1 (2/50) coalesced with a Sli holding Fire Magic Lv1 (2/10) a Sli possessing Origin Magic Lv1 (4/50) would be born.
Although Im glad, the rate of encountering a Prism Sli is in itself quite low. Whats more, it doesnt show up on any other day but the day of Origin. Hence, Im unable to accumulate skill points to my liking.
By the way, when I acquired Origin Magic, I was already in possession of Light Magic. For so reason, the two didnt rge.
It must a phenonon characteristic to a Prism Sli.
Nevertheless, the last day of Origin was a morable day.
Although the rate of my growth isnt lacking, the ti needed to master Origin Magic will be considerable when the maximum skill points required are taken into account.
I directed my consciousness and checked the skill.

Finally, Origin Magic has reached Lv2.
Speaking of which, Thiefs Godly Skill has reached Lv3, too.
Is the number of tis it can be invoked still favorable? The number has decreased to six; however, since the success rate has increased, I have no right to complain.
Although Light Magic is redundant in the presence of Origin Magic, it has a special significance. Its my inaugural magic skill. It can be used for both attacking and healing, so I have decided to keep it in reserve.
It has already been confird that the magic skill with higher Lv and skill points takes precedence.
The day of Origin is spent in the wetland belt; the day of Fire is a day off; the days of Water and Earth are spent in the South Forest practising magic while hunting Caterpillars and Smagobs or undertaking a joint quest with the beastkin family; the day of Dark is spent at the library; the day of Light in the wetland belt.
Thats the result of this cycle.
That today was the day of Earth, where would I be? In the forest south of rville.
After having played with the Caterpillars, with the objective of raising Abnormal Status Resistance to Lv3, it was now early afternoon.
Well then, shall I kick my magic practice off?
If the imagined magic is strong, an enormous quantity of mana in the atmosphere must be converted in order for the magic to manifest.
The convertible quantity increases with Magic Skill Lv. I have now increased the skill points to so extent.
For a large Ball of Light (Light Ball), albeit being the simplest, the quantity of mana that I could convert was insufficient. With Lv1, it would only be the size of a fist.
By the way, its magic practice only in na. Its more about sharpening the (ntal) image.
As the mana required to be converted to manifest magic is controlled by the Magic Skill Lv, when I say my magic training, I an sharpening the image or simply creating a new image.
If I were an ordinary person, I would be repeatedly refining mana according to the Caterpillar series book. Its necessary to improve the magic skill.
Earlier, I said that Light Magic can be used for both attacking and healing. The images of Ball of Light (Light Ball) and Light of Healing (Light Healing) have already been sharpened.
Whats left is for the Light Magic Skill Lv to rise and the power to increase.
By the way, while imagining the Light of Healing, I recalled the ti when Arnold-sans injury was being healed.
Healing isnt particularly the effect of Light Magic, its possible through image. Through an image of Fire Magic, albeit disturbing, the wound can be burnt to stop the bleeding.
As for the healing image of other magic skills, how about the Water Magic?
However, now that Im able to use magic myself Ive realized that magic is disadvantageous in close quarters combat.
Even if I assigned a na to the magic in order to sharpen the image, it would take ti for it to invoke. If I leisurely tried to invoke the magic while the enemy was within a few m (ters), I would only end up torn into pieces.
A mage is fundantally suited to be a rearguard.
Oh well. Since I have Sword Arts as well, I can adapt to the situation.
So then, during the practice, I tried to imagine magic.
Inside my mind, I willed for Optical Camouflage (Light Hide).
Optical CamouflageI thought I would try it if possible via Light Magic.
The so called Invisibility.
Sothing I have always longed for.
Dont misunderstand. I dont intend to abuse it.
If youre a man dont you agree?
Whats known as Optical Camouflage can either be Image Projection or Light Penetration. I understand the theory sowhat.
Image Projection, in simple terms, is photographing of the surroundings and projecting those photographs in real ti through an optical mbrane wrapped around the body.
For example, an octopus.
As for Light Penetration, its literally light penetration.
When an object is exposed to light, it reflects it. Through the reflected light, the object can be visually recognized.
What if the light completely penetrated the object?
The object would beco transparent.
Although that is pushing the limits, it is what it is.
However, with the image of Light Magic, itll be easy.
I imagined light penetrating my body.
I imagined the beams of sunlight, shining overhead, passing completely through my body.
Alright, Im able to turn transparent quite smoothly now however, if I move my body, itll get fairly blurred~
I tried to move my body.
As transparency flickered here and there, my body could be seen.
Through Light Magic, I have to reduce reflectivity to zero. However, while moving, the difficulty seems to increase exponentially.
By the way, if my eyes beca transparent, I wouldnt be able to see, but thats where the quality of magic lies.
Constant regulation of such a continuation type magic requires a precise image, and the precision seems to increase with the increase in the Magic Skill Lv.
Its quite difficult
When it was much needed, it turned out to be difficult.
Let say it again. I dont intend to abuse it.
After repeating the Optical Camouflage exercise several tis, I switched to practising Origin Magic.
In the end, creating a composite elent with Origin Magic is rely a gimmick which only serves to give birth to dreams.
Im glad, of course, that I have access to the magic of six elents via only one Skill Slot.
What I initially thought of was to produce Lightning.
If I managed to produce Lightning, I was thinking I would fuse it with Sword Arts and create a finishing move, like a certain hero whom I was a fan of.
However, I dont understand the principle of Lightning in depth.
When the atmosphere heats up, water vapours rise to the sky and form clouds.
I know it cos from there.
Water in the clouds freezes which forms ice crystals. Intense air current results in friction which generates electricity.
My mory is shabby about it.
Having given up on imagining the principle, I imagined a thunderbolt generated by a thundercloud. Even though I had shot Fire, Water, and Wind magic up in the sky, nothing happened.
Ill retry it when my Magic Skill Lv has increased.
In such fashion, I worked hard at fusing Sword Arts and magic in order to create my finishing move.
Then, I created one.
The greatest and strongest finishing move.
In my head
However, when I tried to manifest the image, it didnt go so well.
Why is that?
Conflicting elents no, its not that
Thus passed my first day.
