A short sword and a small old bow, these were the novice equipment that the Demon King bought.
Hmm … this was indeed a bit shabby. In the past, his novice equipment was usually a Hellhound leather armor that covered his whole body, and enchanted equipment.
Reina was special, the Demon King believed that she couldn't use such good equipment. As the disciple with the worst talent and aptitude, he needed to use another way of teaching her.
"Start running! Pay attention to your breathing, breathing is also a way to recover your magic power. "
"Yes!"
Early in the morning, Reina was woken up by the Demon King and went outside to practice running.
After jogging for about ten minutes, she was already panting.
"Okay, today's morning run is over."
The Demon King let her rest for a bit, after all, after a week of survival training, her body still hadn't recovered, so she couldn't do too much training right now.
Okay, next is the main part of the recovery.
The Demon King returned to the house with a serious expression.
"Next, I'll have to go all out."
Saying so, he put on a white apron and began to make breakfast.
Clang!
Half an hour later, his breakfast was finally ready.
Two medium-cooked eggs, an essential nutritional treasure for breakfast, and a small plate of barbecued meat with sauce, specially made by the Demon King, only he could make this dish. There were also fresh vegetables, which were disinfected with the Demon King's magic, so there was no need to worry about food poisoning. There was also pumpkin millet porridge, also specially made by the Demon King.
The delicious Demon King's breakfast was ready.
"Wow! So beautiful. "
Looking at the table full of dishes, Reina couldn't help but swallow her saliva, she had never eaten such a sumptuous breakfast.
"Sir Hero, can I really eat such good food?"
Reina timidly asked.
"Eat, these are all leftovers."
"But, but …"
She held the fork with a hesitant expression.
Seeing her like this, the Demon King couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, I'll make an exception and eat with you."
"That's great ~"
Reina ate with ease.
The Demon King casually took out a knife and fork. Like a noble, he used the knife to cut a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.
"Nan Nan Nan ~ ~"
A discordant voice came from in front of him, and a cross-shaped vein appeared on the Demon King's forehead. He saw Reina eating with big mouthfuls. Her cheeks were bulging, just like a hamster.
"Be a little more refined!!"
…
It was said that the clothes made the man, and the saddle made the man. After Reina had washed up and changed into new clothes, she had completely changed into a different person. She had actually become a lot cuter.
Her originally muddy yellow hair had now become somewhat golden, and her skin had also become much whiter. If she were to wear a dress and shut her mouth, others would definitely think that she was some noble's daughter.
"Lord Hero, I've brought the leaves."
Reina ran in front of him and handed him the leaf in her hand.
"Very good, then let's officially begin the training. This is a compulsory course for practicing magic, called Mana Control. Sit down."
"Yes!"
Reina obediently sat on the ground and listened to the Demon King's lecture.
"First of all, Mana Control will directly affect your casting speed, the power of your magic, and the amount of Mana you can use. In other words, if you don't learn Mana Control well, you won't be able to become an excellent Mage in your lifetime. Secondly! "
Saying so, the Demon King stretched out his hand and used Fire. A dark blue flame came out of his palm.
"Open your eyes and look carefully. When your Mana Control reaches a certain level, you'll be able to transform."
The flame in his hand suddenly twisted. There was clearly no wind around, but the flame actually moved on its own. As if it had been given life, it suddenly spun and turned into a nearly perfect sphere.
The light changed. The blue flame became dazzling, and the entire fireball became bright white.
"Sun …"
Reina was stunned. This was simply magic! No, this really was magic.
"The compression and dispersion of Mana, abbreviated as Shrink and Disperse! The crudest and simplest way to increase the power of magic is to compress Mana. Even air, when compressed to a certain level, will have extraordinary power. Mana is the same. When you disperse it with a breath, it will … "
The Demon King pointed his finger at the forest. Suddenly, the fireball in his hand expanded and turned into a flame shockwave. The forest in front of him was completely burned into charcoal.
The next moment, the Demon King flicked his finger. The black charcoal trees turned into dust and drilled into the ground. New plants immediately sprouted and returned to their original appearance.
"Wow!"
Reina looked at the Demon King in admiration.
"Of course, you're still far from Shrink and Disperse. Start with the most basic control. Hold the leaf in your hand and remember the flower magic I taught you."
"Yes, yes!"
"What you have to do today is very simple. That is, turn this leaf into a ball."
With that, a leaf flew into the Demon King's hand. The Demon King gently grasped it. When he opened his hand, he found that the leaf had turned into a beautiful ball.
"Do you understand?"
"Yes!"
"And don't forget the Breathing Technique I taught you."
"Yes, yes!"
With that, she began to connect. The Demon King lay comfortably on a piece of grass, covered his face with a leaf, and began to sleep.
Lena began her practice. She stared hard at the leaf in her hand. After chanting the strange incantation, the leaf slightly changed its shape, but it didn't become a sphere.
This was far more difficult than she had imagined. This was to be expected.
Although this was a practice method that the Demon King had thought of on the spot, it was very practical. The small leaf required more precise control, and there were strict requirements for the control of the output of Mana.
Pa ~
"Ah!!"
Reina screamed. The leaf in her hand suddenly burst and turned into small fragments that drifted on the ground.
"What are you screaming for? If you break it, go and pick another leaf. Don't pick too many from the same tree."
The Demon King said lightly.
Reina nodded and found another leaf. As a result, in less than a minute, the leaf was broken again.
Later, she directly picked a pile of leaves back and tried one after another.
According to the previous lessons, the Demon King would let the hero apprentice start with the simple things first, such as using clay magic to mold their own appearance. This was very simple, and the clay could withstand more Mana without collapsing. It was very suitable for beginners.
If the difficulty of the clay training method was E, then the difficulty of the leaf training method was A, even an intermediate Mage might not be able to do it.
The Demon King gave Reina such a difficult training method because of Reina's uniqueness.
She was too weak.
Yes, that was the reason. The level of Mana in her body was even lower than that of ordinary people. This was a very serious problem.
Generally speaking, there was a magic saying that Mages were favored by the heavens. This was recognized by the world. To become a Mage, innate talent was extremely important. Usually, the level of Mana determined a person's aptitude.
Therefore, Mages were a group of people whose Mana level was much higher than that of ordinary people. There was only one such person in ten thousand people. The hero chosen by the Demon King had a higher Mana level.
If an ordinary person wanted to become a Mage, it was impossible to rely on hard work alone. In addition to extraordinary hard work, they also needed the guidance of an unprecedented magic expert.
That person was me! The Demon King, Richard!
The Demon King secretly smiled. Because his face was hidden under the leaves, no one saw it.
One of the things he found interesting was to make Reina, whose Mana level was extremely low, become a powerful Mage. For this, his first step was to let Reina train her amazing Mana control ability …
