Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 246 Power Of Light Magic

The days were coming closer and closer to the time they had to leave, and with it all coming to an end, there were just a couple of things left before they needed to leave the Demonic Continent.

With everything going on, Raze just felt like the longer they stayed here, the more likely they were to get in trouble. At least for Dame, he himself was pretty much fine as the name of the Dark Magus had spread, but not to the point where there were multiple obsessive people like Alba and her group looking for him.

Back at the Inn, Raze had noticed that Safa now had managed to control mana to an acceptable degree. She could move it around and place it where she wished on her body.

Now all he needed to do was show her a couple of spells. In doing so, what he had done was ripped a page out of a notebook that he had taken from the inn they were staying at, then grabbing a piece of graphite rock, he started to draw what looked like a common magic circle.

After finishing drawing, he held it for Safa to see.

”All magic spells come from the basis of magic circles with runic writing,” Raze explained. ”Think of the magic circles as instructions for what it needs to do with your mana. It directs it into one place, takes the properties of the mana, and extracts them in a certain way.”

”However, just like cooking, even if you have the same measurements, if you have the wrong ingredients what will come out will be wrong. Which is why specific magic circles need to be used for specific spells,” Raze explained.

”Now, when casting a spell, you need to make the image of the magic circle as clearly as you can in your head. As time goes on, there will be a large number of spells that you are unable to remember.”

”This is why we use keywords. Restating the word as you remember the circle, it will become second nature for when you say certain phrases that the magic circle will appear in your head, allowing you to cast the spell.”

”The keyword can be up to yourself, but there is a sort of respect among mages. The one who creates the spell will bestow a name on it. Other mages then will use that keyword with the spell, not changing it.”

”Itʼs only right for the one that put in their hard work and research into advancing the use of magic for their word to be used.”

Safa continued to nod along as Raze explained everything to her. She was quite amazed with it all, and it was the first time she had heard her ʼbrotherʼ speak of his world in such a way. She was learning about another culture, and for once, Raze seemed to be proud. When speaking about something coming from his world, which was strange.

”This skill is known as Restore. It needs light magic to work and is one of the most basic Light magic spells out there. The reason for its popularity is because the strength of the spell increases as does the mana of the user. So itʼs a spell that can be used by a 1-star mage all the way up to a 9-star mage, which is quite unique. As with times, certain spells only work with a degree of mana and are pretty much useless as you continue to rise up the ranks.” ƒгeewebnovёl.com

What Raze had essentially done was give Safa homework because the best way for a person to memorize the pattern was to draw it over and over again.

This is what Safa was currently doing on multiple sheets of paper. She would copy the pattern a few times, trying to do as much as she could by memory on the next one. Then when she could finally draw the whole magic circle by memory, that would mean she could picture it in her head.

After that, it was repeating the words and connecting the words with the image.

”Man, that seems really hard!” Liam commented. ”So if you donʼt have a good memory, itʼs pretty much impossible to be a good mage that uses magic, huh?”

”You still want to be a mage, after seeing what nearly happened to her?” Simyon commented.

”I mean, she turned out to be okay in the end, right? So maybe us two would be fine as well. Iʼm thinking of learning something cool like fire magic or something.”

”And with your brain, you probably would only ever know one spell, just stick to the enchanted items Raze gave you,” Simyon replied.

Staying with Raze and the lessons he would give Safa, the group was learning several words related to the magic world. They were remembering them well because they were just as fascinated with it as they were with the world of Pagna.

While they continued to watch Safa struggling to remember the circle, Raze had a few words for her.

”When youʼve learned the spell, gather the mana around your throat, use the restore spell on it. Use it a few times a day; it might take a while because you have a low amount of magic, but continuous use of the spell restore will likely restore your voice back to normal.”

Safa nodded frantically as she continued to draw the circles, and she had quite a good memory, allowing her to get closer and closer to learning the spell. As Raze thought, she wasnʼt just talented in martial arts; as with most talented people, they were better than the average person at nearly anything.

Still, the others had their uses, and could specialize in certain areas to be useful. A few moments later, the familiar knock came at the door. This time, Dame had let himself in as he pushed forward.

”Alright Raze, itʼs time for you to turn into the Dark Magus, itʼs our meeting with the Crimson Crane,” Dame stated.

With a flicker of Dark Magic, the robe covered Razeʼs body.

It was time for him to get a lot more out of this deal than they would.
