- Intermediate spells with more nuanced effects.
- **D Level:**

- **C Level:**
- Mastery of elemental manipulation, summoning, and dispelling magic.

**Gods and Religious Setting:**
- **Gods of the Elements:**
- Six deities govern each elemental aspect of the world, bestowing their blessings upon individuals at the age of five. These gods are revered in temples across the land, and their statues are kept in a central sacred space.
- Fire God, Water God, Earth God, Wind God, Light God, Shadow God.
- **Auric Blessings:**
- During a sacred ceremony at the temple, children are chosen to receive the blessings of the gods. The number and types of Auras bestowed upon an individual depend on their destiny and the will of the gods.
- Some may receive blessings from multiple gods, resulting in a diverse array of Auras.
- **Divine Interventions:**
- The gods occasionally intervene in the mortal realm, guiding chosen individuals and influencing significant events. Shrines and rituals are dedicated to each deity, and devout followers seek divine guidance in their daily lives.
- **Auric Council:**
- At the highest level of magical mastery (S Level), individuals are believed to attain a connection with the gods. Known as the "Auric Council," these powerful mages act as conduits between the mortal and divine realms, safeguarding the balance of magic and interpreting the will of the gods.
As Ryutaro progresses in his magical journey, he will navigate the intricacies of divine blessings, unlock the potential of his Auras, and, perhaps, uncover a deeper connection to the gods shaping the fate of the enchanted world.
