11 The Four Elements
Sometime later...
"Hey wake up! wake up!" Liu is frantically flustered right now, to think Ai would sleep in the bath plunging his self into the water, he didn't know how long this guy was plunged in the water.
He thought that Ai drowned because of dozing off.
This guy is really stupid, if there were a level that was lower than stupid then Ai would belong there.
"Uhhmm" Ai woke up from his sleep
"You stupid shit! I thought you died already! Who told you to drown yourself!?" Liu exclaimed
" Are you that hurt about my words earlier? Reality hurts, and its true you're not one bit handsome as me, just accept it, don't end your life just because of it! You're really stupid!" Liu intentionally used this words to tease Ai
"HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHH!?" Ai snapped with boiling rage he lashed
"Fuck you! Your mom! Your father! Everyone of you! Fuck you!"
"HAHAHAHAHA I really like to tease you brother you're really stupid as shit" Liu added
"Likewise you're a dirt of an insect, hehe" Ai rebutted
"Jerk"
"Dimwit"
"Stupid Face"
"Pea brained asshole"
This argument lasted for ten minutes
=-===
10 minutes after
" Can I ask you about something Liu?" Ai asked Liu after sitting in the chair
" Sure! Anything I can help you with" Liu answered
"Its about the four elements in my mind."
"I'm listening" Liu said earnestly
" They transferred information about magic structures, formula, techniques and other spells, and it was really painful in my mind..." Ai delivered what happened on that mind of his
"You know Ai, about the matters of your elements, they are really extraordinary, normally the transfer of that techniques do not happen because they cannot. These elements that we students shouldn't have sentience because they are just a spec of the original element. Possessing them only means that we have affinity with the said element." Liu told Ai
"So going by logic, your elements have sentience. The ability to impart heritage is only Spirit grade elements can do, and they are rare in our world. Why? because they do not submit to humans because they see humans as abusing race. And also they have pride, they think that they are superior to us, but well they really are. Just that they are superior at the beginning only, we humans improve time by time.
Possessing these kind of elements Ai, is a great blessing already " Liu looked at Ai
" The principal was right that you are a Alpha Mage." Liu added
"What's an Alpha Mage?" Ai was confused
" Base on principal said on the awakening, they are born every 5 millennium. They are mage whereby possessing the means of destroying the world and saving the world from doom. They are people with very high potential. " Liu answered
"What about the heritage?" Ai asked again.
" Its the process of transferring information, basically it's what the spirit grade elements did to you, they gave their heritage to you." Liu answered in a cheerful aura
" So I can use the spells even without manuals? Grimoires? "
"Yes because you have already a heritage. and using other spells outside the jurisdiction of the heritage would anger the spirit grade elements. Its like a master and a student. When you want to learn a new technique you should consult your master if it is needed or not, because your master's heritage is different from others, and learning other techniques that wasn't suitable at your heritage would make your path of cultivation astray." Liu commented
"So basically you can already use magic, even before going to the capital school" he added
"Oh` OH! I can!? " Ai was very excited. To use magic when your classmates wasn't able to, a feeling of superiority sprang from the heart of Ai, but Ai wouldn't use it to boast neither to bully someone, after all he was a low profile person and a humble person at most.
"I know what you're thinking but, you can't yet" Liu broke his wild imagination
"You said I can!" Ai said in a angry manner
"Using magic without the supervision of the teachers aren't allowed," Liu answered Ai with a disdain
"SO I just need teacher's see me cast it then and get their approval?" Ai smiled
"You're mind my brother really is wild, what I meant about the teachers was those at the capital not here, even teacher's here aren't that good at using spells at all, the only one adept at using rank 1 to 2 magic is the principal, other teachers here are only intermidiate and advance apprentice mage!" Liu told Ai a revelation
"Huh? There are grades to apprentice? I thought having a spell and awakening a element would already mark us mages?" Ai confusedly asked
" Yes indeed we are considered magicians after we awaken elements, but because we are still inexperienced they cannot mage us as full fledged one's only by learning to senior's will broaden our horizon and make us capable one.
Training and real life experience in battling demons, magical beast is also a factor to become a full fledged one.
Grades in being a apprentice is needed to assess a student or a trainee on his/her capabilities, low apprentice are that newly graduated and only know the 3 basic rules of mana.
Intermediate apprentice is about a person successfully casting a spell
Advanced Apprentice are those who can make their magic into 3 categories
namely: Offensive Magic, Defensive Magic and Movement Magic, but since not many types of magic can use Movement type they added some categories also, such as: Buff Magic, Healing Magic, Trap Magic.
And after the advanced Apprentice is the full fledged rank-1 Mage and so on and so forth," Liu told everything he can to Ai
Digesting everything Liu said, Ai was gleeful. He was already 4 steps ahead from the group,
1.He's packed with heritage so he doesn't need to study manuals
2.He can already see the structure of magic with the guide of heritage, unlike fresh graduates they need to make their own structure
3.He can study advance these cultivation method for spells.
4. And lastly, he can overpower new mages with his various spells in his pocket
Feeling this greatness he can't stop smiling, it was so wide that his smile was near to his ears.
Seeing the reaction of his brother Liu can't help but laugh at the imagination of his brother.
Still he was quite envious of the 4 elements, but not about having the heritage, he didn't even show the slightest envy after hearing the matter, but he was just surprised.
Surprised that his brother survived that. One must know Spirit Grade Elements possess vast amounts of profound heritage and their skills was innumerable.
'Maybe the elements helped him' he murmured.
Ai was destined to be a great figure someday, Liu already foresaw where Ai would dominate the whole Magic World with his progress.
Just that, Liu wished to see this himself.
