Capítulo 39: Search In The Heart, Magic’s True Essence!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"You mean, you want to learn a high-level hybrid spell like the Dual Heavens of Ice and Fire?"
After listening to Marcus's request, Gerry shook his head.
Nonetheless, upon seeing that Marcus's expression was too serious and he did not seem to be joking, Gerry finally smiled helplessly and said, "This kind of hybrid spell is the hardest to learn. I'm also not sure how to use this kind of spell."
"Oh, I see," Marcus said with a little disappointment.
"Ahem..." Gerry noticed Marcus's disappointed expression and slowly said, "Since ancient times, less than 100 people have learned this kind of spell.
"I'm afraid it will be very difficult to find a mage who has learned it to ask you for advice. So it's mainly up to your own perception.
"Well, if you have any difficulties with other types of magic or spells, you can just ask me for advice."
Marcus nodded and said, "Mentor, I'm here for more than one problem."
"Yes, please go ahead."
"After learning the Freezing Rain Spell, I practiced, and it didn't follow my commands during training. It directly summoned a large number of ice swords in the air..."
Marcus recounted to Gerry everything that had taken place at that time. In the end, he even told Gerry about his nightmare after resolving the issue.
"Hmm..." The more Gerry listened, the more incredulous he became. How could a level-7 advanced mage encounter so many things?
Could it be that young people nowadays gave up on the pursuit of training intensity and instead focused on the pursuit of excitement?
Could it be that he was getting old?
"I've heard about these things from other students," Gerry said slowly. "You've also practiced fire magic, right? These two kinds of magic will definitely clash in your body."
"But, they've already calmed down."
"No, magic is sometimes like the weather in summer, fickle. You think it has already calmed down, but the next time you cast a spell, this kind of situation may still occur.
"You were too anxious and didn't let them continue to stabilize." Gerry stared at Marcus and said slowly, "Do you think that after learning the Freezing Rain Spell, two spells with opposing elements could balance each other in such a short time?"
"..."
Marcus nodded. "I'm afraid not."
"What you need to do now is to balance them. In order to balance them, you have to cast your spells and familiarize them with each other. Your two spells are of different levels. That's why it's like this."
"Mentor is right."
"Well, tell me about the Freezing Rain Spell you learned. What level is it now?" Gerry said as he drank his tea. According to common sense, in just two or three days, he would have reached level-2.
The most talented person would probably be busy practicing without eating or drinking. At most, they would reach level-3, right?
"Mentor, my Freezing Rain Spell is currently at level-5," Marcus said in embarrassment. "It's a bit slow..."
Gerry's eyelids twitched. He put down the teacup and exclaimed, "Is it really level-5?"
"Yes, it's absolutely true," Marcus said firmly.
"Then it must be because you're cultivating too fast."Gerry wiped the sweat on his forehead with a tissue. "Among the students I've guided, there has never been someone that practices as fast as you. You have to be steady. Take it slow."
Marcus didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Now, he didn't want to let his magic cultivate so fast.
However, it wasn't his fault.
It was because his spells were too self-disciplined and practiced cultivated on their own.
The practice speed would increase by 100% on a daily basis, so It would be strange if the practice speed wasn't fast.
"Yes," Marcus said slowly. "Your student will definitely follow your instructions."
"Alright, alright." Gerry said to Marcus, "Why don't you use a Freezing Rain Spell now and let me see it so that I can continue to guide you?"
After saying that, Marcus nodded in agreement with his teacher. The two of them went to the alternate dimension training room in the teaching area together.
"Come, let me see you unleash it this time."
Upon hearing that, Marcus took a deep breath, raised his right hand slightly, and cast the Freezing Rain Spell.
'Level-5 Freezing Rain Spell!'
As usual, a crack appeared in the sky, releasing countless icicles, which then turned into ice pillars.
Marcus never expected that the ice pillars would suddenly turn into ice stones and fall down.
"It's not an ice sword?" Marcus was puzzled.
Just when Marcus was about to stop, he found that he couldn't do so.
The magic power in his body suddenly became polarized.
Half was cold, and the other half was hot.
The rest of the magic power seemed to have disappeared.
It was completely undetectable.
"Be careful!" Upon seeing this, Gerry suddenly pointed to the sky.
A ball of flame burst out from the center, its momentum like a dragon's. It suddenly rushed up to the sky and covered all the ice stones.
The flame was extinguished, and a mist filled the sky.
Gerry suddenly walked in front of Marcus and asked with concern, "Can't stop?"
Marcus suddenly sighed. "Mentor, what should I do?"
"Student, I only have one sentence for you." Gerry said solemnly, "You need to search in your heart and find the true essence of magic."
