43 Chapter 39 - Complexity of Magic Spell

The current scene, you know, is hard to describe.

I can't say I'm happy or sad.

Bathed in river water, Lina washed my back using thin clothes that were washed repeatedly by water, but here is not my happiness.

It's not as simple as I can't look back to see a rare sight that is more beautiful than the sunset, even if I face back I won't be able to see 'the shape of Luna's body under the clothes that was clearly printed after being wet by river water '

Nobody told me about this, did I expect more?

Although I had soaked the water many times I did not understand why Luna's clothes could not get wet, making me wonder if Lina had given a layer of wax on top of her clothes because she had thought there would be a scene like this.

Because Tamara and Elaire are now busy, I can't bring them here to make concoctions, anyways the Dungeon can't be let off, I need Alfred to help me make Potions because he's experienced, and Bell can't be displayed to the public now because of me will give a different role later, so automatically he cannot guard and act for the receptionist even if only temporarily.

Whereas my former friend who worked part time, I did not know he had decided to work or not, even if I still could not immediately give him a hard job because he basically knew nothing.

Because of that, a situation like this can happen.

I just surrender now, enjoy what I can, after all, I really don't want women, if I want I can pay to certain places, and I can play to my heart's content.

But I don't want to do it, this kind of action reminds the young masters of the novels I read, this is not good, maybe even such actions will bring bad luck to me.

At least I won't, if I do it on the basis of giving them money for their work and not because of the form of love that I give.

I'd better focus on meditating now so that I can digest the whole fog in which paths are faster.

But before that.

"Bell, Alfred come here"

"Yes master"

I won't be able to take a shower properly, if they keep watching on the side, first I have to evict them first

"Alfred come back and do your job again"

"Yes master"

His face is poker as usual, it's hard to say his true emotions. Is he upset because I didn't give a reward? But this should be part of his job, there is no need for me to give a reward.

"As for you Bell, go catch some rabbits, then make me some simple rabbit satay"

I'm really hungry now, as a race related to cats he should be able to hunt animals.

"I'll do it soon, Brother"

Bell leaves immediately without confirming whether I have another order or not. Hey, he's too passionate about carrying out his duties, this is a good thing but just in case I advise him next time.

**************

Under the bright moonlight, near the lake whose name I didn't recognize, I sat cross-legged and tried to calm my mind.

Soon the whole fog was absorbed, as soon as I finished I could begin to carve spells in the pool of energy in the spirit body.

After that I can use magic and can be officially called a mage, but unfortunately the number of spells that can be carved is limited. This limit does not only apply to me but to all mages.

The number of spells that can be carved is practically like having slots and as is like a skill slot in a game, the difference between different spells, especially high spells, usually takes double slots when installed, unlike consistent games that require 1 slot, and the number of slots can be increased if spirit strength is improved too.

But in general 95% mage ranked 1 by default has 7 skill slots.

Even if the number of slots is not allowed for people to place careless spells in it, at least 5 of them must be in accordance with the ingredients of the ingredients consumed, because if too many different elemental spells are added, there will be a conflict between elements in the body.

This happens mainly because the body absorbs fog from the elements in the concoction, so that the body can have real attributes.

Indeed the effect will not be too severe, at the very least it will reduce the effectiveness of spells in the main element, even though no one wants this debuff to happen to their body, other than because of a permanent period, this debuff is overly mastered especially when seeing this debuff will reduce effectiveness from all aspects of the spell, from launch time, reach, effects, and other aspects.

Make someone cry blood.

But that is not the end, the limit of the number of slots has become bad news for people who dream of becoming mage, plus the problem is that this one will definitely be like being ironed down that says 'depression' right over their heads.

Unlike in movies, Magic is not as simple as saying a spell from the mouth and the effect will soon come out, such a miraculous effect will not occur, because each type of spell has a different process and work method, so it can be said that spells have a forming structure, which is recorded and carved in the magic circle.

But even after knowing the magic circle from the problem spell is still not finished, the magic circle cannot be painted carelessly.

As I said before magic has a structure, so every sequence of lines and symbols must be considered, if a wrong spell might fail.

A mage can make his own research if the spell carved is the same spell as the herb because it is easily inspired and has a small risk if it fails.

But if spells are made in different elements, it is advisable not to try trying to research, it is better to buy spell structures from other people.

For this reason too, it is not uncommon for a mage to lack spells, because they do not have the resources to make it or the funds to buy it.

Of course, problems like this won't happen to me, in the past I have done some research for spells, I automatically have spells that are ready to be carved into the spirit body.

And five of the ones I chose were Fake, imitation, fear hallucination, miss direction, and sound manipulation.
