Chereads / Villian in the Academy / Chapter 5 - Training

Chapter 5 - Training

I sighed... I know, i have a long way to go and it will be extremely hard. I slapped my self and looked at the mirror, the side that i slapped became red.

Anyways, i started my training by concentrating on my finger. To form the magic you need to move your mana from your Mana base. Mana base or Aura base can be located in two places, your Heart or Brain. In case of mages mana base is located in their brain.

I felt like warm water was moving inside of me. It was slowly but steadily moving to my finger. From my index finger water was formed and it dropped. Mana will form one of the attributes that mage posses and mage will decide which attribute it will become. In my case it was water cause i couldn't form ice or other sub attributes yet.

I felt extremely happy when a droplet dropped from my finger. It was still hard to believe that i was in the world of magic. Despite, being happy i felt one more thing it was difficult to move the mana that i had inside my body. I wasn't able to move larger amount mana cause it was still new for me. I should have learnt how to move mana and other basic things for mage from my parents or hired teacher. Naturally, Kyle didn't have a chance to get such knowledge. So i have to do it all by myself. Until the day of moving to the Academy comes. Otherwise i will have a hard time in the Academy where everyone at least knows basic knowledge.

This time i tried to move more mana and i sensed that it was easier to move my mana compared to the previous time. I pointed my finger at the mirror and a small stream of water was released from my index finger. Naturally, stream of water wasn't powerwul enough to do any damage to the mirror. It just splashed when it touched the mirror and that's all. I was a bit disappointed when i saw this picture which made me finally realize that it was true that water had no attack power.

I thought for some time. What if i condense more mana at the point of the water. Then i tried to use my theory. I moved my mana and this time i put more mana together at my fingertip which was pointed at the mirror. I finally released my mana which transformed into arrow shape water stream and it sort of left mark on the mirror. I was hoping it would penetrate the mirror but it didn't.

I calmed down a little bit and came to conclusion. In order to penetrate the mirror i would need to condense more mana and it was mana-consuming and ineffective when it comes to more than one target. Still, it was better than nothing.

I looked at the clock which was hanging above my bed and two hours already passed. It felt like 30 minutes to me. I heard my stomach groan as if waiting for food. It was true that i didn't eat one week and still didn't die. It was the difference between Earth's humans and Elornia's. Under the effect of Mana humans changed and they required less food and drinks cause by absorbing mana that was around them they could theoretically live without food and drinks until they die. Still, it feels better when you eat something than eating the air. This worlds food menu changed too after the beasts which evolved from ordinary animals were killed, people could harvest their hide to make armor and other stuff and meat to make delicious food.
