"Eh? Beasts summon?" The group of girls were shocked at the subject that the teacher was going to teach them soon.
"Yes, each person with magical powers can practice this spell which will casted various types of magical beasts to fight and develop those magical spells to change their appearance until they become larger in the future." the female teacher explained.
"Very interesting, Teacher." The girls said with exciting.
"At first, you guys think of small animals, then slowly follow the teacher's instructions." the female teacher advised.
The teacher slowly had the children cast fire magic power into their palms and imagined all kinds of animals. Some children thought of dogs, some people think of cats and some people think of rabbits. It depended on each person's idea. Then, they shot out a fire magic power and instantly transformed into the animal that reminded them of those things.
There were more than 7 kinds of magical beasts released, which created great excitement among the children. It's like trying a new subject that looks fun and usable.
Mariel also cast many animals such as dogs, cats, and chickens. This basic beast summon spell would be the first step towards learning advanced summoning magic spells in the future.
The girls had fun chanting beasts summon spells. Not even the boys who cast monkey and a small bird came out as well.
But these beasts' summons was not used very often because another part of this magic power had to be divided to cast these animal-type summon spells as well. As a result, the effectiveness of fighting with actual magic power would be reduced.
Mariel herself, having cast various forms of beasts summon magic and she was starting to get quite tired.
"It's like this. Even though I didn't see my father and mother casting any beast summon spells at all because the magic power within us would be reduced and used to cast this spell again and again. It made the magic power used in fighting less effective." Mariel said.
In the end, Mariel saw the advantage of these beast summon spells and it seemed like she had some kind of plan in her mind.
When Deric, Claudia and Mariel came back home, Deric prepared two sets of clothes and towels, his own and Mariel's.
"Why did you prepare something like this, Dad?" Mariel asked curiously.
"Today we would practice water magic together." Deric replied.
Once Mariel had finished placing her textbooks bag on the table, she immediately rushed down to the stream behind the house. Deric had already taken off his shirt and only the pants were left. He revealed strong muscles, then walked down to the center of the stream, where Mariel and Claudia stood on the other side watching him.
"Watch carefully, Mariel. Practicing water magic isn't very difficult but the tricks are a lot more difficult than fire magic." Claudia whispered into Mariel's left ear.
Mariel watched the water magic from Deric intently.
"First, just stay focused and let your body and mind be calm and still. Thinking of the water flowing through your own body, then keeping an eye on it. The Qi within us gradually turned blue, which meant water magic. Water was like the various blood vessels in our bodies that are nourished, replenished, and circulated to keep life going. But...at the same time, it could create powerful beyond imagination as well." Deric said.
Suddenly, a mass of water slowly gathered around Deric's body and spread throughout the surrounding area. Moreover, the water magic slowly formed into 10 spheres around Deric's waist.
In front of Deric was a large rock next to a stream, he suddenly pointed his finger at the large rock, then 10 spheres of water magic were thrown towards the rock in a continuous attack.
Nevertheless, the water mass slowly formed into two large curves and flowed around Deric's body from the body to the arms, from arm to leg. Then, these two streams of water came together to form a large mass of water above Deric's head. It changed into small drops of rain that soaked the entire area until it was soaked.
Mariel looked intently at this teaching. Her eyes sparkled because in front of him was like Derick playing music, created by a stream and the water danced around Deric. It's like a song that was written and sung beautifully and then finished with a strong melody at the end.
"Would you like to try it, Mariel?" Deric said.
"Okay, Dad." Mariel answered immediately.
Mariel slowly walked down to the center of the stream and Deric walked up on the grass and joined Claudia, who gave him a towel. Then Mariel closed her eyes and meditated firmly and calmly, allowing the body to become one with the water flowing slowly through her body.
It didn't take long. The Qi in Mariel's body slowly formed blue lines. It then circulated throughout the body and gradually merged with the main Qi lines.
Mariel slowly cast five spheres of water magic that circulated around her. She then aimed at the same large rock that Deric had taken down before. Then she shot 5 water balls at once until they hit the big rock with a loud, continuous sound as well.
*Applause sound*. Deric and Claudia applaud their daughter's talent.
"Very good, Mariel." Deric praised.
Mariel suddenly turned around and smiled back. It seemed like she would faint for a moment, but after a while she began to regain consciousness again.
"After a while it would be back to normal. I understand now. Why did people have to gradually learn magic powers one line at a time when the time was right. Your child's body now had many magical powers within it, but it still didn't have much Qi magic power. This water magic was a step above fire magic. Therefore, the use of Qi power would require even more. When the time came for you to grow up and have more Qi magic power. After that, you would be able to use your water magic more efficiently." Deric said.
(It's exactly as Father Deric said. I am still just a 10-year-old girl, but sometimes because our minds are a man who is 18+ year old, when we do something, we always do it to the end which is not compatible with our own body physiology. I'm very happy to be able to do this but I don't stop here. I must focus on practicing meditation more and set Qi power even further. Finally, I will be able to use the power of water magic to be more effective.) (Chai thinking)
The results of practicing water magic were satisfactory. Mariel came up from the stream to dry off and change clothes. Then had dinner, reviewed the textbook, and fell asleep from exhaustion every night.
From then on, Mariel also practiced water magic more often until she became more skilled. She was not very satisfied because she had a goal that she had to overcome.
Nevertheless, Mariel also cast beasts summon of fire magic to make Deric and Claudia admire. For example: Dogs, cats, and small birds were cast in different types.
"Very good, Mariel. Just train hard and you will be better at casting beasts summon spells on large one in the future." Deric said.
"So, do Mom and Dad usually use this technique?" Mariel asked curiously.
"I usually don't use this kind of magic. I just focus more on using ice magic and the ice magic field to fight but there is sometimes that I summon a hawk-type of beast summon to use to attack the enemy or explore the routes as well." Deric said and cast a hawk to show his daughter.
"As for me, I sometimes cast large bear-type of beast summon to fight." Claudia added, showing off her summoning skill to her daughter as well.
"That's nice!" Mariel replied, feeling even more inspired to practice.
One day while the students were doing afternoon activities, the boys had fun by using fire magic and beasts summon magic but the important thing that made everyone turn to look at the same point was that Frederick gathered most of his fire magic power and released it into a magical beast that took the shape of a flaming lion.
This fire lion ran into a wooden puppet which was used for training until it burned to the ground in front of everyone's eyes. But this casting the beast summon of magic caused Frederick to sit down and exhausted. But it was so worth it because it showed everyone how much of a gap, they were capable of him. Normally, people who could cast beasts summon spells at this level would only be at the higher level of magic schools. But for a genius like Frederick, that was a bit easy for him.
It made many people applaud, including Mariel which caused Frederick to blush in embarrassment. It made Mariel intend to do better than Frederick did.
One night, Mariel woke up in the middle of the night and prepared another set of pajamas and a towel. Then she walked downstairs and headed towards the stream behind the house where she regularly practiced water magic.
Elf Erin came out of the big tree and saw Mariel slowly walking past the back of the house.
"Continue practicing, Mariel? You are really having a lot of determination." Erin admired.
"Yes, today I will achieve my goal." Mariel replied.
When she reached the stream, Mariel slowly took off all her clothes until her body was completely naked. Then slowly walked down to the center of the stream. She slowly sat down on a large round rock in the water until only her head was above the water.
Mariel meditated and closed her eyes slowly and calmed her mind. She began to move the Qi energy of the magic in her body until it formed a stream of water that slowly circulated throughout her body.
"Putting my bodies in direct contact with water and It would help me to determine a better way to manage with the Qi power. Especially water magic which was more advanced than fire magic. Therefore, I must do my best." Mariel said.
The blue magic line that combined with the main Qi lines slowly radiated a blue glow in Mariel's body.
"As the god Sergil said. In this world, anything can happen. If we have the intention and do our best, the results will be success." Mariel thought inside her mind.
The water slowly circulated around Mariel, as if waiting to show its true power.
"Today, Frederick was even able to cast beast summon fire lion. Therefore, I must do better!" Mariel said.
Many hours passed, Mariel began to feel her own body becoming one with all the water around her and it advanced beyond her own abilities and was about to happen again.
*Wink!!!*... Mariel's two palms slowly came together in the center of her chest and a blue glow was emitted. Then Mariel slowly opened her eyes while it glowed bright blue. Mariel's body slowly moved in a dance.
The water slowly flows in a spiral to the rhythm of her dance, it liked a girl dancing gracefully and beautiful in the middle of this stream.
Elf Erin, who was watching from above the stream, secretly supported Mariel to succeed.
"You can do it, Mariel. You truly have both talent and blessings within you." Erin praised from her heart.
The sound of the water hitting the edge of the stream followed the rhythm of Mariel's dance until it made a continuous, non-stop noise.
"What is that sound? It never stops." Derid heard water crashing so loudly that he had to wake up to see.
"I don't know." Claudia said and woke up too.
They opened the bedroom window to see Mariel dancing in the middle of a river with the water flowing rhythmically around her.
"Mariel? Let's go and see." Claudia said.
"Ok!" Deric replied immediately.
They quickly went downstairs and ran out to the back of the house near the stream without noticing Erin at all.
In front of them was Like the melody of the river that was playing sweetly to the ears while Mariel being the center of singing and dancing for everyone to see.
Mariel suddenly remembered the beast summon magic spell and immediately started chanting it. Then, the various water masses slowly circulated upwards, gathering to form a larger and larger shapeless object over Mariel's head.
"Be mindful. Think about these things clearly. Then released it with all your magic power!" Mariel said, closing her eyes once more and sweat began to flow down her body and face, showing the concentration required to cast this spell.
The shape of the beast summon spell gradually changed until it became clearer, and it looked like a large mythical creature that everyone knows very well.
Deric was stunned.
"Water dragon!" Deric said suddenly.
"Impossible! A person who could cast a beast summon spell like this might have very advanced magic. At the past, we just saw Mariel summoned dogs, cats, and small birds." Claudia said, unbelieving with her eyes.
*Smash! *
Mariel opened her eyes and slammed a large water dragon beast summon spell at the large rock which was used for practicing water magic until it shattered into pieces. The power of the water dragon and water magic became stronger this time.
The sound was so loud that the ground shook throughout the area. The results of this training were very successful. Mariel was able to exceed her abilities once again.
The girl slowly walked up from the stream, looking tired. Then she walked in, picked up a towel and slowly cleaned herself but she saw Deric and Claudia walking towards her happily.
"Dad! Mom! I made it!" Mariel said as she slowly collapsed onto the grass and fainted from exhaustion.
Deric came over and held his daughter in his arms. Claudia used a towel to cover her daughter's body in place and rubbed her head affectionately.
"Very good, you are truly my daughter, Mariel." Deric said with a smile as he watched his daughter fall asleep in his warm embrace.
"I'm so proud of you." Claudia said with tears. Then they checked other things. Deric carried Mariel back into the house and carried her to the bedroom. Claudia put on her daughter's clothes and covered her daughter who was fast asleep on the bed with a blanket.
"Sleep well, my dear. Let's celebrate this in the morning." Claudia said, bending down to kiss her daughter's head. Then she closed the door and went back into the bedroom with Deric to rest as well.
