Ramageon, Hotel.
After leaving the Adventurers Guild, Shien went straight back to the hotel.
To him, the episode at the Adventurers Guild was not even qualified to be a joke after dinner. It was not even worth mentioning.
Now, Shien just wanted to get in touch with magic as soon as possible, and even learn magic. The cliché plot had long been thrown out of his mind.
Under such circumstances, as soon as Shien returned to the hotel, he immediately went to his room and locked the door. Then, he threw off his shoes and jumped onto his bed.
After that, Shien could not wait to pick up the book "Basic Study of Magic" and opened it.
"Magic."
As soon as he opened it, Shien immediately saw a big "Magic" word.
The word occupied the entire page as if it had infinite magic power. For some reason, Shien was a little fascinated by it.
"Hmm, it's a little metaphysical now."
Shien felt inexplicably satisfied and turned to the second page.
From this page onward, it was the basic knowledge that explained the concept of "magic."
"Magic is a power that can cause supernatural phenomena by consuming the magic power of all living beings. It is also the most mysterious and profound knowledge in this world."
"Magic originated from the Demons. It was a method of using power developed by the Demon King. The purpose was to allow the Demons to use their powerful magic power more efficiently and use it to fight against the Protoss. That was why it was called magic, which means' the magic that the Demons are good at '."
"Later on, based on the same theory, the Supreme Goddess Omnys developed holy magic, as well as various recovery and support magic, which was specially used to deal with Demons and monsters. She then gave it to the Protoss and other races. Magic was no longer a power exclusively used by the Demons. Instead, it became a kind of miracle that would appear among all races, and was popularized in the Omnippertansen."
"Nowadays, all kinds of magic and systems have been developed and widely spread. Magic has also become one of the most respected powers in this world. Mages who specialize in magic and have achievements in the field of magic have a higher status than ordinary warriors because they can often use power that ordinary skills can't achieve."
Shien had a rough understanding of the origin of magic.
Nyen had mentioned this part to Shien before.
According to the Goddess, magic was a kind of power that could interfere with the principles of the world. Within the scope of the principles, magic could achieve many miracles, which was why it had such a high status.
Because of this, learning magic required a very high talent and ability, because it was a kind of knowledge that could even touch the principles of the world.
Why were Elves a natural magic race?
It was because Elves were born from nature, and they were close to nature and the world. Therefore, all Elves were natural Mages, without exception.
Demons, on the other hand, were naturally born due to the influence of the Demon King's magic. They were born with extremely strong magic, and almost all of them could use magic.
On the other hand, Protoss, due to the different professions, most of them couldn't even use the simplest magic. However, there were many Protoss who could use holy, recovery, and support magic, which could be considered as having their own advantages and disadvantages compared to Demons.
"What about me?"
Shien didn't know if he had the talent to learn magic.
In terms of magic power, he should have enough.
But to be close to nature and the world?
"I'm from another world."
Shien couldn't help but be a little worried.
"If I knew this would happen, I would have read books related to the Heroes and see if the Heroes of the past learned magic."
With this thought in mind, Shien continued to read.
"According to the effect and power, magic is also divided into levels."
"Elementary magic."
"Intermediate magic."
"Advanced magic."
"Generally speaking, magic is divided into these three levels."
Elementary magic's effect and power were the weakest, but the requirements to learn it were also the lowest. Many warriors who reached a certain level could also use it, but compared to their level, it was undoubtedly much weaker. Therefore, many warriors who met the requirements would not choose to learn it.
The effect and power of intermediate magic were already worth looking forward to. Warriors who had reached level 50 all wanted to learn the power and effect of intermediate magic, but the requirements for magic power and talent were also higher. Normal warriors couldn't meet the requirements at all. If they could meet the requirements, then these warriors would basically be able to learn the skill [Magic Sword].
Advanced magic, on the other hand, was widely recognized as having high power and high effect. It was also the biggest pursuit of many mages. Mages who could use advanced magic would already be valued by the nobles and even the royal family.
Therefore, mages who could learn advanced magic would basically be outstanding, and their status would not be inferior to the ordinary nobles.
However …
"If you want to learn magic, you must learn the corresponding magic skill."
"Only those who learn [Magic · Fire] can use fire magic, and those who learn [Magic · Ice] can use ice magic, and so on. If you want to use any type of magic, you must first learn the magic skill of that type."
"Moreover, the level of the magic skill directly determines the level of magic that can be used."
"When the magic skill is level 1, 2, or 3, then only beginner magic can be used."
"When the magic skill is level 4, 5, or 6, then only intermediate magic can be used."
"When the magic skill is level 7, 8, or 9, then only advanced magic can be used."
If the magic skill's level was not high enough, then no matter what, it would not be able to use advanced magic. This was something that everyone knew.
Merica, for example, had leveled up her [Magic · Fire] and [Magic · Ice] skills to Level 4. She could use Intermediate and Beginner Spells, but she definitely couldn't use Advanced Spells.
On the other hand, Lésia's [Magic · Space] skill had been raised to level 7, so she could use advanced spatial magic, even confining and destroying space itself.
At the same time, the higher the magic skill's level, the stronger the magic's power and effect.
"What about level 10?"
Shien was a little confused. He flipped through a few pages, but in the end, he did not see what would happen when a magic skill was raised to the maximum level of 10.
"Maybe it's because this book does not touch on that level?"
Shien somewhat understood.
After all, the name of the book was [Basics of Magic], so it was obvious that there was no really profound content in it.
However, this book taught people how to learn beginner magic, and the steps to grasp the basics of magic.
"If you want to learn magic, it is necessary to learn the corresponding magic skill."
"But, just the corresponding magic skill is not enough."
"If you want to become a qualified Magician, you must first learn two skills."
"One is the skill that can increase the chanting speed and proficiency of spells — [Chant]."
"The other is the skill that can use the spirit and will to change the nature and shape of magic, so that it can be involved in the truth of the world — [Meditation]."
"Only by learning these two skills will I be able to use magic."
Therefore, the first thing that was taught in the book was not magic, but how to learn these two skills.
