I felt super pumped up for the coming training but I wasn't sure what my Master would say. After all I was a whole month doing training on my own. But just as I was lost in thought she turned to me and said:' With this day I will start teaching you properly. Therefore what I'm teaching you is something that you should keep private. You can only talk about it if one of two conditions is met!
First somebody who is much stronger than you is forcing you to spill our secrets and you can't win against that opponent.
Second I allow you and give permission to talk with someone over it. I will tell you if it's fine at the right moment. You are amazing! Even though you can't remember your name, you have such a vast talent it would make others envious if they knew this. I mean you could reach 50-55% in a month and your body is not a normal spirits one. Please let me exermine your body.'. When she was finished talking I was stunned! Am I amazing? I am really good? But that doesn't matter now. Master wants to help me so I need to help her first. She said 'exermine'? No clue what she has planned! But I said confident to her:' Sure go ahead'. And as soon as I said that she was at my back and poking in it. She did the same with my face. Looked at my brownish hair and white teeth. Then she said with a suspicious look on her face:' Do you know what your body is? It is a spirits body Third Tier. I told you about the Tiers of spirits right? But spirit's bodies do have also Tiers. And your is on third stage at that!
First you have first Tier
then second Tier
after that third Tier
followed by fourth Tier
and last but not least fifth Tier. That does mean that you posses knowledge over the body which is superior to high grade doctors! What are you exactly?'. I didn't know that a spirit's body did have Tier too! And at that my body would be a high grade untop of that! In my last life I was working as..... as what exactly? Doctor?' What am I exactly? I don't know.'. Without noticing I said what I thought out loud but luckily just the last two sentences. I don't want her to know about my past life! What would Lady Puncella think of me? What if she would abondon me because of that? I don't know what to do if that were the case. But then abruptly she started to speak again:' Do you know any method to refine a body of a spirit? If yes I would love that you tell me!'. Lady Puncella eyes were sparkling like a child before its birthday and already knew she was given a huge gift. She was really thrilled but then coughed once and began to speak again:' Sorry for being so rude. I will teach you now magic. First the basics. There are 6 kinds of magic.
Light
Darkness
Fire
Water
Earth
Wind
Each element is weak against one and strong against the others. For example is light weak against darkness but strong against fire, water, earth and wind and so on. How good you are in magic isn't described by your capacity it is described how good you can counter the elements. Aside from the 'raw' elements there are fused ones such as:
Lightning out of Fire and Earth
Wood out of Light and Earth
Stone out of Earth and Wind
Air Rift out of Darkness and Wind
Space out of all except for Darkness
Time out of all except Light
As you can see Light and Darkness can't be fused but other elements that oppose each other can be fused. Then theres the last and third part of magic. Techniques and elixirs. These are hard to obtain but can be useful and are normally are for practice purposes or buffing in the blink of an eye. When you are already on a battlefield. Now how do we activate magic you ask? That is a very good question. There are again three parts of doing so. The 'raw' elements can be activated by imagination. Humans use chants for them but we are spirits so we don't need them for that. The fused elements need chants except for the ones who mastered those. Elixirs and scrolls activate by either consuming channeling your magic into them or destroying. The ones you activate via destruction can be even used by people who don't can use magic!'. At that moment I tried to comprehend what she said. The elements of magic. The fused elements. The use of elixirs and scrolls and such. How to activate all of them. When I thought that all trough two times again, suddenly I asked something completely weird from my side of perspective but Lady Puncella was pleased as she heard what I wanted to know:' You said Magic can be activated through chants, correct? Then how can I now i was chanting?'. She looked at me and told me that the only way is to study chants diligently otherwise I wouldn't be able to use grant magic or fused grand magic or superior versions of that.
After this long talk Master showed me how to use my magic and use images to combine them. I have high compatibility with Light Magic. But I'm also really good at Wind and Water Magic. My Fire Magic is not as good as Wind and Water Magic. But I really suck at Earth and it seems like I have either no compatibility with Darkness or no fitting image of it. This meant I wouldn't be able to use Time Magic, Air Rift Magic and everything else about Darkness Magic. After the compatibility test Lady told me:' You really are blessed! Such high compatibility at the beginning!'. After that I came to the conclusion that if I want to improve quickly I must get an idea how to use Darkness and get better at using Earth Magic. For Earth Magic Lady told me to deepen my understanding of it I would either need to meditate in order to get the full grip of it. Or I would just use it drain my capacity and restart everything when it's full again. For darkness I don't know how to do it exactly but I got some books from Master with whom I could study it a bit. Lady Puncella also told me:' I will be leaving for two weeks and then I will come back help you with your Earth Magic and help you with Darkness. I have some urgent buissines I need to take care of. See you later then.'. And thus I was left again. I think she told me something between the lines. She said she wasn't good at Darkness Magic herself. Will she study it for me? I doubt that. I think she either knows someone who can help us or she needs to take care of something for her own.
Meanwhile at the end of Lady Puncella...
'Ardos how dare you underestimating him? He is my desciple!' said the voice of a woman...
Now it was clear it was Lady Puncella who was speaking. But she talked with a tall man covered from head to toe in a cloak. The crazy thing about him was that the cloak he was wearing was made of a lot of clothes. That aside the cloak also covered his complete face and hair. With this it was hard to identify who he really was. But then they talked again. 'Darkness you say? It is my strongest magic yes! But he is not my desciple. He is yours! What's his name? Ahh right you don't know! Maybe he is fooling you! Have you ever thought of that?' said the man with his weird get up. Then Lady Puncella with tears in her eyes said:' He shows me everything he knows. He is sincere! Have you ever seen a spirit that needs to learn how magic is categorized? Have you ever shown you Masters your true talents? Even I the genius of our generation didn't do that!'. With that the man bowed and said:' I'm sorry it's just we are long friends. I will test him if he's sincere or not. With that in mind I will know when he lies!'.
