Chapter 30: First Day Of Learning Magic

Ancient One basically understood how the chakra worked after Emma's explanation, and it didn't seem that hard, but she still had to confirm: "So if I understand correctly, this energy called chakra flows within you, a source both internal and universal. It may be different from what we use, but I suspect the principles are not so far apart."

"In short, the big difference between your chakra and our mythical energy is the source, but in the end, the application is almost the same; we just have different developments, I assume."

Emma nodded, the source and use of many energy forms in the anime world are almost the same, with only the change in name and the addition of some flashy things depending on the anime.

Emma's nodding confirmed the Ancient One's conjunction. She continued, "Alright, since it's very likely like this, let's try to see if your chakra can interact with the dimensional space, and fortunately for you, the best way to see is to try opening a portal."

Emma thought of the different dimensions that Kaguya could teleport to and, most importantly, Obito's Kamui. In the end, just because of awakening some eye powers, Kaguya and Obito had almost the same level of understanding of space as the Ancient One, who had studied it deeply? The Sharingan is truly a cheat code.

Ancient threw something, and Emma caught it by instinct. Looking carefully, it was a Sling Ring.

The Ancient One told her, "The Sling Ring serves as a focal point for opening dimensional portals. It doesn't really matter what kind of energy is used; as long as your talent in space isn't that bad, you should be able to master portal magic with enough training."

After Emma slipped the Sling Ring onto her finger, the Ancient One continued, "You will use your chakra to feel the space around you. Visualize the destination you wish to reach. The trick is to focus on the point you're in and the point you want to reach, then feel the space that connects them. Bend that space, and the portal should open."

Unfortunately, even though she tried so hard, Emma just didn't seem to be able to do it.

This made her doubt her comprehension a little. First, there was the Sun Breathing technique, which should normally not take her so much time but did. Then there was the portal magic. She wasn't like Doctor Strange, who simply didn't believe in magic at the beginning, which is what took him so much time.

Seeing Emma's frustration that she wasn't even trying to hide, the Ancient One smiled helplessly: "Why do you look so frustrated? The most talented magician that I know took several months to learn portal magic, and you want to achieve it in one day? Aren't you a little too pressed?"

"Huh?" It was only then that Emma remembered she seemed to be in a big misunderstanding, led by reading too many fanfics.

The most talented magician that she was talking about must be Strange. She remembered that it took him several months and a life-and-death situation planned by the Ancient One to master portal magic.

It seems that, like many protagonists, she was so devoted to the power quest that she was forgetting many things. Well, limitless potential is one of the reasons she chose the Marvel World, but more importantly, because Emma found it more fun.

With all kinds of superheroes, superpowers, and beautiful women, isn't it a waste not to enjoy such a blessing? Anyway, as long as she played her cards well, she shouldn't worry about getting stronger.

She said to the Ancient One, "Thank you for reopening my mind. I guess I have been thinking too much lately. Plus, with my chakra, I think I should be able to master magic so easily, but well, I'm a bit prideful, I guess."

The Ancient One approved of Emma even more; she wasn't as hard to teach as her future disciple. Just thinking about him was enough to give her a headache.

Emma and the Ancient One spent the whole afternoon together, with the Ancient One guiding her while also discussing interesting things.

In the end, she didn't expect to become good friends with the latter, and it's not even something that she schemed on, truly wonderful.

When she returned home, Emma wasn't as tired as she expected. Only then did she recall that when she was complaining about her busy schedule, she was a superhuman now and one with good stamina who could truly fight all day.

She took a good shower and felt more refreshed. This was more of a habit of hers since before; she couldn't take a bath after being beaten because it hurt very much. This made her now take a bath at any possible opportunity.

After that, she came to her computer with headphones and connected to her website.

That's right, she created a website. After all, she isn't called a genius for nothing in her previous life, but because of her jack-of-all-trades ability: knowing nothing but everything at the same time.

The website she created had a simple and rude name: "Emma's Teaching Class."

Although there wasn't any activity on the site, she wasn't worried. She had already planned to use the TP she currently had to boost her channel.

According to the system, every 1 TP would make 2 users interested in the selected subject visit the page.

She had a total of 11.321 TP, from the gift package and some earned through the games she had played.

Then she planned to use 5.000 TP to boost her site. After that, she would spend 5.000 TP to buy a skill about what she would teach, and she had already chosen the subject.

She had already chosen a subject she wanted to teach, one that could make her earn a lot of money, one that would allow her to introduce supernatural things slowly, one that had many die-hard fans who would never lack the desire to learn, and finally, and most importantly, a subject that she liked very much: cooking.
