magic lesson

After completing a year of rigorous training, Lucius felt a profound sense of accomplishment, his muscles aching but his spirit soaring. Noir, his mother and guide, stood beside him, a glint of pride evident in his eyes.

"Now, your mana training comes to an end. From this point forward, you'll continue your journey by learning the fundamentals of magic from Elina. Take a few days to rest and rejuvenate your body and mind. Once you're ready, we'll commence your magic training," Noir instructed Lucius, his voice resonating with authority tempered by warmth.

Following Noir's guidance, Lucius bid farewell to the training grounds and retreated to the sanctuary of his room. The days that followed were a blur of simple pleasures—delving into books filled with ancient wisdom, savoring hearty meals prepared by the mansion's cooks, and succumbing to the embrace of blissful slumber. Four days slipped by unnoticed, like grains of sand slipping through an hourglass, until the time for rest had elapsed.

As the sun cast its radiant beams into Lucius's chamber on the dawn of the fifth day, a familiar voice echoed within the confines of his mind, breaking the silence of the morning stillness.

"You've grown quite a lot, my dear," the voice of the Goddess reverberated, its ethereal timbre tinged with amusement and affection.

"Ah, Goddess, you've returned," Lucius acknowledged, his voice a mixture of surprise and warmth as he stirred from his slumber.

"I see you haven't forgotten my voice. Congratulations on fulfilling one of the conditions on your journey to becoming my husband. I must say, awakening your mana at such a young age is quite impressive," the Goddess remarked, her words weaving a delicate tapestry of encouragement and pride.

"I'm simply striving to achieve my goal," Lucius replied, a hint of determination underlying his words as he cleared his throat.

"Is it me you want to achieve as your goal" The Goddess teased him playfully, her words dancing like playful sprites in the recesses of his mind, eliciting a blush that tinged his cheeks with a rosy hue. Hastily, Lucius rose from his bed, a flurry of motion propelling him towards the door as he sought to escape the playful banter of the divine being that lingered within the confines of his thoughts.

Meanwhile, in the realm of the divine, the Goddess found herself momentarily lost in reverie, her thoughts drifting towards a future filled with endless possibilities and boundless love.

As Lucius arrived at the open field behind the mansion, he was greeted by the sight of Elina, his mother and guide in the arcane arts. She stood alone amidst the expanse of emerald grass, her presence commanding yet comforting, a testament to her years of experience and wisdom.

"Good morning, Mother," Lucius greeted respectfully, his voice a gentle whisper carried on the morning breeze.

"Good morning, my dear. Come closer," Elina beckoned, her voice soft yet firm as she gestured for Lucius to approach.

"Today, I'll introduce you to the wondrous world of magic—the very essence of existence itself. Magic is a manifestation of the elements that shape our world—fire, water, wind, and earth. These are known as elemental magics, the building blocks from which all other forms of magic derive their power. In addition to these elemental magics, there are more advanced forms such as Lighting and frost, each presenting its own unique challenges and complexities. And then, there are the rarest and most elusive forms of magic—light and dark magic—whose secrets are known only to a select few," Elina explained, her words carrying the weight of centuries of knowledge and wisdom.

"As your mentor and guide, it is my duty to impart to you the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate the realm of magic with confidence and mastery. For now, I shall focus on teaching you the basics—elemental magic and light magic. Dark magic is a path best left unexplored, its temptations and dangers too great for one such as yourself to bear. As for the other forms of magic, you shall learn of them in due time, once you have honed your skills and gained a deeper understanding of the arcane arts," Elina continued, her voice imbued with a sense of purpose and determination.

"There are two main methods of wielding magic—incarnation and non-incarnation. In incarnation magic, spells are used to summon and control specific elements, requiring time and precision to execute. Non-incarnation magic, on the other hand, is a more intuitive approach that relies on understanding the fundamental principles of magic and harnessing its power without the need for spells. It is a rare and elusive skill possessed by only a select few," Elina elaborated, her words resonating with wisdom and insight.

"Incarnation magic involves the recitation of spells—words imbued with mana, the very essence of magic itself. The more mana you channel into your tongue when reciting a spell, the more potent the magic becomes. It is a precise and controlled method of wielding magic, requiring focus and concentration to achieve the desired results," Elina explained, her voice steady and assured.

"Non-incarnation magic, on the other hand, is a more fluid and intuitive approach that bypasses the need for spells altogether. Instead of relying on incantations, non-incarnation magic involves tapping into the raw essence of magic itself and manipulating it to achieve the desired effect. It is a skill that requires a deep understanding of the elements and their interplay, as well as a keen intuition and a strong connection to the flow of mana," Elina continued, her words flowing like a gentle stream, carrying with them the wisdom of ages past.

"As your mother and guide, it is my duty to impart to you the knowledge and skills necessary to wield magic with confidence and mastery. Together, we shall embark on a journey of discovery and enlightenment, unlocking the secrets of the arcane arts and harnessing their power for the greater good," Elina declared, her voice ringing with conviction and determination.

And so, under the watchful guidance of Elina, Lucius began his training in the arcane arts, his heart filled with hope and determination as he embarked on a journey that would lead him to the very pinnacle of magical prowess.

Meanwhile, in the realm of the divine, the Goddess watched with bated breath, her heart filled with anticipation and longing as she awaited the day when Lucius would fulfill his destiny and become hers for all eternity
