Epic Start

(Wind Magic)

(Boost: A strong gust of wind that can be used to increase your speed or jump height.

This spell transforms the world mana around you into wind mana, And by controlling it you can push yourself forward, giving yourself a speed boost.

You can also use it to increase your jump height

Repeat the incantation then focus on controlling the wind

Note: Be careful)

'It should be easy to use, I'll use it a couple of times to understand how to control the wind, But other than that it should be all fine'

Leus stood up in the middle of the room and started repeating the incantation

'Compare to Sal's spells, Other spells feel sluggish'

'I wonder if his spells are more advanced or just simpler'

Leus finished the incantation of boost and concentrated on making the air come up from below him.

He willed the Wind Mana around him to gather below his feet and push him up, Then jumped in the air.

CRASH

Leus' head hit the ceiling, making him lose control over the Wind Mana around him

THUD

And he fell down

A large amount of his mana pool was depleted and he was lying on the floor in pain putting his hand on the top of his head

'So that's what the note was for ... '

Viorica entered the room in panic and rushed towards Leus

"Leus, Are you okay?"

She turned around and shouted

"Blaze, Come and help me"

Leus calmed her down

"Ahh, Yes, I'm okay, I lost control of the spell"

Blaze came and checked on Leus' body, He could easily see that Leus' body was fine, So he stood there and laughed at him

"Let me carry you to the bed"

Viorica gave Blaze a scary look forcing him to stop laughing

Then looked at Leus and said

"Maybe this room isn't big enough for you, How about you train in the yard from now on?"

Leus replied in a tired voice

"I think that's a good idea"

Blaze spoke lightly

"It's just a small accident, There are no injuries too

He should get used to such things if he plans on becoming stronger, Rest for some time and you'll be okay"

After Viorica made sure that Leus was okay they both left the room

Leus laid down on the bed and thought to himself

'What an epic start'

After laying down for a while and recovering some Mana, Leus got up and went to the yard

'From now on, I'll only use Boost to push me forward until I learn how to control it'

Leus repeated the incantation and willed the wind to come from behind him.

The wind was strong and it pushed him forward a bit, But this time he didn't fall, Instead he took note of everything that happened

'The spell consumes my Mana to transform the Mana around me into Wind Mana, And then I can control that Mana to do what I want'

After running some calculations, Leus concluded that if he kept Mana Vision active then he could use boost 3 times before he ran out of Mana

And if he doesn't use Mana Vision then he'll be able to use it 4 times

'Not bad, But I want to learn how to silently cast it'

'Using incantations is boring, And it makes the spell feel sluggish'

'It also means that I can't use it instantly, I'll have to chant first'

'The plan is like this, First I'll learn every single spell and master it, Then I'll learn how to silently cast each of them

'After that, I'll keep increasing my mana pool until it's enough to use multiple spells silently'

After the plan was made, Leus started training

He activated Mana Vision and then repeated the incantation

'This time I'll try to make the wind come slower'

After he said the incantation he closed his eyes and focused on the wind mana

He willed it to slowly come from behind him

'It's not as fast as the last time, But not as slow as I want it'

Sadly, Leus couldn't continue for long

His Mana pool was already near its limit, So he went back inside the house

'There's progress, But it is as slow as a turtle ...'

Leus sighed

'Oh well, I'll just train harder'

He went to his room and laid down on the bed, Then repeated the incantation again, Causing his Mana pool to deplete, And forcing himself to faint.

After Leus got up, He went back to training 

He focused on only using Boost 

'The plan is to understand exactly how it works so I can eventually silently cast it'

'Then I can try to alter it' 

'This will be both faster and more effective' 

Every time he used Boost he'd gain just a little bit more control over the wind

'I'll understand every aspect about the spell itself, And at the same time I'll increase my Mana Pool' 

And like that, Leus kept training

As Leus' training continued, His sleeping schedule became very irregular, Most of the time he'd be sleeping in the middle of the day 

Because of that, Viorica started to leave Leus' food in the kitchen or in his room so he can eat whenever he wants

The irregular sleeping schedule made Leus lose his sense of time a bit, But because he was feeling progress he never stopped

On the third day, Leus was fully able to control the direction of the wind, But he still wasn't able to cast it more than 3 times while using Mana Vision

'To increase my Mana Pool, I need to train more'

By the fifth day, Leus understood how the spell worked, And was fully able to control both the strength and the direction of the wind, But he still wasn't able to silently cast it 

'I do not have enough mana'

That made him feel a bit frustrated, But there was nothing he could do

The only solution was to train more
