What exactly is the mechanism by which magic works?

When Yin La first transmigrated, she thought magic was something very magical, something idealistic that didn't require attention to rules, similar to the magic in [Magic x Female Yin Liya].

However, after Yila began to show her talent and was sent to study at the Tower of Pure White, she realized that this was not the case... Magic here is a rather sophisticated field of study.

It is a technique that can be replicated through experience.

Taking the Fireball spell as an example, let's set aside the rather special variations like the [Maricus Fireball] and just use the most basic Anonymous Fireball spell as an example.

To learn and use the Fireball spell, the first step is to memorize the "original text" of the Fireball spell, which is a long passage of text that is inscribed or recited, sometimes appearing meaningless and irregular. You must memorize those texts.

The original texts for different spells vary in length, ranging from a few dozen words to 999,999 words. The original text for the [Anonymous Fireball Spell] is very short:

[She is always changing, like the fiery magic of hot and cold, seeking the moment of explosive ignition... (hundreds of words omitted)... traversing through the charred wasteland, the blood and fire of sinners, blooming and dancing flowers]

As long as (?) can memorize these original texts and the mage has enough magic power to unleash spells, then he only needs to calm his mind, chant the incantation, and pull the trigger.

Anonymous spells do not have long incantations at the beginning; you only need to recite "Anonymous Fireball" to cast them.

In this process, there are many factors that determine the power, stability, destructive range, and control of a spell, such as the quantity and quality of the spellcaster's mana, the quality of the spellcasting tools, and most importantly... the mana aptitude in one's bloodline.

My Healing Game

This isn't good news for Yinla... In this world, kings and generals are naturally more dignified.

Or rather, it is because the ancestors of these kings and generals had exceptionally noble bloodlines that their ancestors were able to sit in this position... Throughout the history of the empire, apart from the current Isabella, there has never been an emperor who could not be defeated.

This bloodline will be passed down, and only a very small number of people will be able to become a suitable mage without the right bloodline.

Even Ira wasn't immune... The Elkaras family uses blood magic quite a bit, it's just that Ira is the one who uses the niche [blood magic] in a chilling way.

Vera's family goes without saying; their ancestors, Yainermenio Theyatos, included powerful mages who became "outsiders" through their intense study of ice magic.

However, that's beside the point. The key point is that learning magic takes a long time, part of which is to familiarize oneself with the construction of spell models, but even more time is spent memorizing the original texts.

While prioritizing memorizing spells that enhance memory can help mages memorize texts more quickly, texts with large amounts of text are still difficult to memorize... after all, you have to memorize them all without missing a single word.

To give an example, the famous first biographical work, the Records of the Grand Historian, only has 520,000 words, but many legendary magical works have 700,000 to 800,000 words. Not to mention that many original texts have no logical connection between words, and you can't memorize a single word wrong.

One can imagine the mental torment that learning magic would cause.

Even if an Archon enters the [Magic Class] form and uses the corresponding spells, although the incantation can be omitted, the original text is still needed in their mind. Therefore, many Archons will ignore the magic class Mana on the battlefield.

By the way, the elves don't need to memorize the original text.

"Sometimes, I really envy the elves. They don't even need to chant. As long as they have a thought... Mana will obediently do everything they want."

Vera sighed, looking at Yinra who had dismissed the matter devourers, and feeling Yinra's hand on her shoulder. She looked around and said, "The iron mine is indeed completely depleted, with only some slag left."

Because he had previously used [Wing Shatter] to consume Vera's Mana, Yinra, who was extracting Mana again, nodded, noticing the softened stones and grayish-white rocks.

Clay and limestone... this mine satisfies both requirements at once.

However, cement requires a relatively larger amount of clay, and this mine obviously has more limestone. Perhaps we will need to look for clay caves later... Clay is not a rare thing. We can dig around near the river later.

As Yinla pondered this, he pulled his hand away from Vera's shoulder, feeling the sense of security that Vera's mana brought him once again. He watched as Vera closed her eyes, sensed something, and then eagerly began digging at the dirt on the wall with her hands.

Yinla initially didn't know what she was doing, but she quickly realized what was going on and said with a smile, "The Soul Box is so close? You're really carefree. But think about it, if it weren't for this... wait, if you were resurrected, how would you get out?"

Yinla saw Vera dig a hole in the wall with her hands, revealing a relatively sturdy separate room behind it. As he spoke, he helped by kicking the earthen wall on that side of the room.

"If I want to get out, I left a lot of [Digging Detonation] and [Digging Magic Bullet] spell scrolls inside. If my physical body perishes, I'll hide here for two days and then use digging spells to break through and get out."

As Vera said this, she handed a small black box that was on the bed in the room to Yinla, saying, "This is for you to keep, Yinla. You can hide it in your room."

"..."

Looking at the small black box in her hand, which carried a hint of mana and contained a small fragment of Vera's soul, Yinla didn't know what expression to make.

So, Vera really didn't make a mistake by entrusting such an important thing to me for safekeeping?

Although Yinla had almost been convinced (or fooled) by Vera's words, he still felt a sense of gratitude as he watched her confidently hand over the Soul Box to him.

It's a feeling of being trusted, just like the leaders and little monsters who are generous with their trust in themselves.

Upon hearing Vera's actions, Yinla earnestly put her soul box into her pocket, saying, "Vera, I understand. I will protect it well... until I am torn apart by a powerful enemy first."

"Um!"
