Levels of magic and user
There are 9 levels of magic from 1st to 9th, and 4 levels of magic user.
Every 2 levels spell/skill you can cast make you a corresponding user-level except for the last 3 level spell.
1-2 Beginner
3-4 Apprentice
5-6 Expert
7-9 Master
But will it be [master swordsman] or [master wizard], depending on the user.

There are 2 main types of Magic.
[Martial Skill: a skill that cooperates mana into a martial art.]
Usually differentiated by weapon type, but sometimes element affinity counted too.
For example, Spell Skill needs a spear. Fire sword style requires both fire affinity and sword.
Martial skill is easier to learn but harder to master; its effect mostly is destruction, so it lacks creativity, and the difference between mastered user and a new user is significant.
[Magic Spell: a spell using mana to conduct a work of a miracle.]
Magic spells can do almost everything but are harder to learn, but once you learn them, the spell will already be at full power.
The downside is the only way to improve is to create a new spell; using more mana than the spell requires is a diminishing return compared to using a higher levels spell of the same effect because almost all spells are designed for a specific amount of mana.
Type of Spell (Will be more later.)
Instant spell: After casting, it will go to effect, but the user can no longer control it.
Concentration spell: After casting, the user still can control the spell, but MOST people can only hold 1 concentration spell. The spell can end if the user loses focus or cancel it.
Permanent spell: After casting, the spell will last forever with some conditions.
