Joshua's Inclination (2)

Just sitting there and trying to do something that felt like it was impossible made every minute feel like an eternity for Joshua. And considering how Lucy had fallen asleep, it wasn't only Joshua who felt like there wasn't any progress.

But Joshua didn't know what to do. None of the people or cats he had spoken to had mentioned anything about having trouble taking the first step and becoming a first level mage. However, now that he had already wasted so much time trying to figure it out himself, Joshua would be damned before he gave up.

All the hard thinking and frustration was giving Joshua a headache, so he decided to take a small break and just look at Lucy napping. If nothing changed by forcing it, Joshua might as well try and find a gentle way to do it.
