Originally, Red Ponytail wanted to let Louise rest for the night before coming back to study, but Louise refused to let her go. Left with no choice, Red Ponytail took Louise out of the room and went to a secluded open space behind the school. At this time, Louise could not wait any longer.
"So, how should I learn about Psionic Energy?"
Louise was both excited and a little uneasy. She was excited because she had finally found the reason why she could not release magic, but she was uneasy because she had not tried it yet. What if the method provided by Saber still did not work on her? What should she do then?
Thinking of this, Louise felt a little uneasy.
"Ahem, calm down, Louise."
Seeing Louise's excited look, Red Ponytail also called her name.
"We have to start with the basics, which is about the nature of Psionic Energy … Well, first of all, don't think of Psionic Energy as a special existence. Think of it as your instinct."
"… Instinct?"
"That's right. You learn magic by imagining it in your mind, then chanting the incantation, and then releasing the magic, right?"
After a day, Red Ponytail had more or less understood the nature of magic in this world. Louise nodded.
"But Psionic Energy is different. The use of Psionic Energy … Well, rather than magic, it's more like physical exercise."
"Physical … exercise?"
"Yes, it's like running. If you want to run fast, you have to practice. The more you practice, the faster you run. You just have to control your body when you want to speed up or slow down … You should understand this, right? "
"Hmm … I know about that …"
Louise nodded.
"But isn't magic power innate?"
"I'm not saying that the way you use magic is wrong. After all, you can still cast magic, but Psionic Energy is different from ordinary magic. Yes, you might not understand …"
Having said that, the red ponytail rolled her eyes.
"By the way, Louise, why don't you take a few steps?"
"Two steps?"
"That's right. Walk from here to there, and then walk back. It's easy, right?"
"…?"
Although she didn't understand what the red ponytail was talking about, Louise obediently followed her instructions. She walked from the red ponytail to a tree not far away, then turned back.
"Next, walk again, but this time, you have to say which foot you took. If it's the left foot, read the left foot. If it's the right foot, read the right foot. "
"Alright."
Louise did not say much, but nodded again, then turned around and continued forward.
"Right foot, left foot, right foot, left foot, right foot … Eh? No, left foot … no? Eh? Eh? "
For the first few steps, Louise walked normally, but soon she was surprised to find that she seemed to be in a mess. She was supposed to be using her right foot, but she was using her left foot instead, or she was using both hands and feet at the same time. Louise hurriedly tried to correct herself, but she tripped and fell to the ground with a cry.
"How could this be? I'm just walking! "
Louise, who was sitting on the ground, stared at herself blankly. She had no idea what was going on. She was just walking normally, and the red ponytail just wanted her to say which foot to take. Why did she suddenly feel like she couldn't walk?
"Because you care too much about it. The same goes for psionic energy. It's something you can use instinctively, but because you care too much about it, you lose control. The more serious you are, the more mistakes you make."
"No wonder …"
Hearing this, Louise also nodded and muttered to herself. The feeling when she released her magic was just like what the red ponytail said. At first, she could control her magic freely, but later on, she began to lose control. It was just like when she was walking just now. The more she tried to speak and walk, the more disorderly her steps became. In the end, she even fell to the ground ….
"Next, do as I say. Close your eyes, concentrate, and condense your magic in your right hand … Imagine yourself holding a snowball in your hand …"
"…"
Hearing the red ponytail's words, Louise stood up. She closed her eyes and began to act according to the red ponytail's instructions.
"Very well, then hold it tightly. Then imagine yourself in front of you is the idiot from the day, and throw the snowball at him!"
"Go to hell!!" “
Hearing the red ponytail's words, Louise seemed to really remember Bei Ye's stupid face during the day. She shouted angrily and threw her right hand forward!
Then …
"Boom!!!"
"Huh? Did I fail again? "
Hearing the explosion, Louise hurriedly opened her eyes, but the red ponytail shook her head.
"No, you did it."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Louise looked forward, and she was shocked.
The ground not far in front of her had already caved in from the explosion, and in the center of the caved in was a small, strange black ball that was constantly rotating. Around it were broken and floating stone fragments.
"This is not so much psionic energy, but an ability …"
Seeing this, the red ponytail could not help but think of the ability system in the Mass Effect world. In other words, Louise's power was actually somewhere between psionic energy and an ability? After all, her physique was different from the others. The red ponytail knew that Louise was the protagonist, and when she signed the contract with her, the red ponytail also got the fragment of the Order Coordinate Core, which meant that the power in her body was definitely different.
"This is …"
"This is the primary mode of using psionic energy. Hmm … After you get used to it, you can also use other modes to attack, such as singularity, weightlessness, distortion …"
Of course, the strongest was still the Psionic Storm.
Among the Cursed Children, Xia Shi was the best at using the Psionic Storm. The range of her Psionic Storm was enough to cover one-third of the Americas. In this world, one Xia Shi's Psionic Storm was enough to destroy a country.
"I did it …"
However, Louise did not care about the red ponytail's complaints. She stared blankly at the spinning black ball and muttered to herself. Then, she suddenly rushed over and hugged the red ponytail.
“saber! I did it! I did it! "
At this moment, Louise was extremely excited. She had often created explosions in the past, but those were just ordinary explosions. But this time was different. Although it was also an explosion, it was not caused by losing control. It was formed on her own initiative! After so many years, this was the first time that Louise had successfully used magic!
Well, technically speaking, this was not magic, but a superpower ….
"Saber, let's continue!"
"No, go back to sleep."
"Hey —! Why! "
"You don't have enough MP. Psionic energy requires a lot of MP, and you've released many magic spells in a row today. Although you haven't succeeded, the consumption of MP is undeniable. If you continue, you'll only fail. Anyway, now that you've found the feeling, the next step is to train. Go back and rest. "
"Hmm … Okay."
Hearing the red ponytail's words, although Louise was a little reluctant, she could only nod. In fact, she also felt a little tired and dizzy after releasing magic just now. Although she wanted to continue working hard, since she had already said that she would rest, Louise had no choice but to rest.
"Okay, that's all for today. Special training will start tomorrow!"
After saying this, the red ponytail and Louise walked back to the room.
Before leaving, the red ponytail turned her head and glanced at the city wall not far away, then withdrew her gaze and left with Louise without saying a word.
For the next few days, Louise did not appear in the classroom.
"Hey, do you know what Louise is doing?"
Taking advantage of the gap between classes, the hot red-haired woman poked the blue-haired girl next to her. Her name was Chuluk, and she was Louise's "natural enemy". She was a passionate and unrestrained woman. The barren, seemingly silent short-haired girl next to her was Tabasha, Chuluk's best friend.
Speaking of which, one was extroverted and the other was cold and silent. Nobody knew how these two became good friends.
"Louise hasn't been to class for a week. I heard that she called in sick, but I don't see her in the dormitory."
"She's in special training."
"Special training? That Louise? "
Chuluk was somewhat surprised. Although his family and Louise's family were enemies, and the relationship between the two was not very good, it was because of this that Chuluk knew Louise very well. Although Louise's magic casting success rate had always been zero, she was indeed very serious in class. Simply put, her attitude was good, but her results were not good.
But now, she didn't even come to class?
"She's training with that girl in the back mountain. That girl seems to have found a way to make Louise cast magic."
Tabasha looked at the book in her hand and replied faintly. Hearing this, Chuluk suddenly became interested. She stood up and grabbed Tabatha, who was next to her.
"What?"
"You know where it is, right? Take me there! I want to see what Louise is up to! "
After saying this, Chuluk grabbed Tabasha and rushed out of the classroom excitedly. Tabasha was held by Chuluk as she continued to read her book, as if she was not affected at all.
"Which way?"
"Right."
Along the way, although Tabasha did not look up, she was able to give Chuluk a definite answer every time he asked her the way. Under Tabasha's guidance, Chuluk quickly came to a small forest not far behind the dormitory.
"I didn't expect to see her here …"
Looking at the small forest in front of him, Chuluk was somewhat surprised. This forest had always been a place for students to quietly talk about love under the nose of the teachers. Chuluk had come here with other students before, but he never thought that Louise would come here one day.
Although the reason she came here had nothing to do with romance.
"That's why I said she's just a little brat who won't grow up."
After grumbling for a while, Chuluk went into the forest.
Then …
"Boom!!"
"Ahhh!!"
The sudden explosion gave Chuluk a fright. Caught off guard, she was sprayed all over by the debris.
"Cough, cough, cough!!"
While patting the dust off his body, Chuluk angrily rushed over the hill and came to the other side.
"Louise of Zero!!"
"What?"
At this moment, Louise was standing behind the hill, and when she saw Chuluk's arrival, her face immediately darkened.
"I should be asking you that question. What are you doing?"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chuluk did not know what to say for a while. As far as the eye could see, Louise's surroundings were full of craters caused by the explosion. It looked as if she had been bombarded by a hundred fireballs.
"What's wrong with you? Have you finally given up and decided to turn your explosion ability into magic? "
Looking at Louise, Chuluk said sarcastically. Based on her experience, Louise would usually jump out at the mention of keywords such as "zero" and "explosion". But this time, Louise did not jump out like Chuluk expected. Instead, she crossed her arms and looked at Chuluk with a smug look.
"Yeah, what's wrong? You're not happy? "
"What's there to be unhappy about? I'm just … Are you really okay?"
Seeing Louise's completely unmoved expression, Chuluk became a little uneasy. It had only been a week. How could there be such a huge change? Not only was she no longer angry at others for saying that she exploded, but she was also proud of it instead of feeling ashamed?
Could it be that his brain was fried?
"What's wrong with me?"
"No, maybe I should report this to the teacher and have you do a proper check-up …"
"My brain is perfectly fine!"
Hearing this, Louise jumped up in anger. Seeing this, Chuluk breathed a sigh of relief.
That's right, this is the Louise I know.
"So what are you doing?"
"Hmph …"
Hearing Chuluk's question, Louise first glanced at the red ponytail next to her. When she saw the red ponytail nod, she said.
"I'm practicing a brand new magic!"
"A brand new magic? But haven't you tried all kinds of magic? No matter what magic system it is, it won't work. "
"That's why I said, a brand new magic!"
Having said that, Louise waved her hand generously.
"What I'm learning now is Psionic Void Magic!"
"… What's that?" 11_11604/
