Ability
Thomas sat in front of his experiment table, his brows furrowed, tightly holding an ancient magic book in his hand. His eyes quickly scanned the pages, trying to understand those complex runes and incantations. He knew that the field he was exploring was dangerous, but his curiosity drove him to continue.
His goal was to create a new kind of magic, one that could enhance his magic ability. He believed that through this magic, he could bring glory to the academy and perhaps even change the future of the magic world. However, he also knew that this attempt was full of risks.
He began to prepare the materials needed for the experiment, each strictly following the instructions in the book. His movements were cautious, fearing that even the slightest mistake might lead to disastrous consequences.
As the last material was added, the magic array began to emit a faint light. Thomas took a deep breath and began to chant incantations. His voice echoed in the laboratory. As the incantation progressed, the light of the magic array became brighter and brighter.
Suddenly, a powerful energy burst out from the magic array, and the entire laboratory began to vibrate. Thomas felt an unprecedented power, but at the same time, he also felt a deep fear. He realized that he might have released a power that he couldn't control. The windows of the laboratory were shattered, and the energy in the magic array began to get out of control, forming a huge energy ball. Thomas tried to stop the magic, but it was too late. The energy ball began to expand and seemed ready to explode at any moment.
Ms. Alison and Jack heard the commotion in the laboratory and rushed in. Seeing the scene in front of them, Ms. Alison exclaimed, "Thomas, what are you doing? Stop it quickly!"
Thomas looked at them desperately. "I don't know how. I can't control it anymore!"
Jack quickly thought. He remembered seeing a similar scene in an ancient magic book. He shouted loudly, "Thomas, use your magic to guide it and lead it to a safe place!"
Thomas nodded. He concentrated all his mental power and began to try to control that energy. He felt a connection between his magic and the energy ball. He began to guide it, trying to lead it out of the laboratory.
The energy ball slowly moved, passed through the door of the laboratory, and came to an open space in the academy. Thomas continued to guide it. He felt his magic power being consumed rapidly, but he couldn't give up.
Finally, at the last moment, Thomas successfully led the energy ball to a wasteland outside the academy. With a loud bang, the energy ball exploded, forming a huge crater. Thomas fell to the ground, panting. He felt that he had almost exhausted all his magic power. Ms. Alison and Jack ran over and looked at him with concern. "Thomas, are you okay?"
Thomas shook his head. "I'm fine. It's just... I just didn't expect it to be like this."
Ms. Alison said seriously, "Thomas, your behavior is very dangerous. You almost destroyed the entire academy."
Thomas lowered his head. "I know. I won't make such a mistake again."
Jack patted him on the shoulder. "We all make mistakes. The key is to learn from them."
Thomas nodded. He knew that this experience would be a lesson for his whole life. He decided to be more cautious with magic and not let curiosity and ambition blind his judgment.
The dean of the academy learned of this incident and severely criticized Thomas, but also gave him a chance to correct his mistakes. Thomas was prohibited from conducting any experiments for a period of time. He had to relearn the basic principles and safety regulations of magic.
Thomas accepted the punishment. He knew that it was what he deserved. He began to re-examine his learning attitude. He realized that becoming a great magician was not only about mastering powerful magic, but more importantly, having a sense of responsibility and self-control.
In the following days, Thomas became more focused on learning basic magic. He no longer pursued those dangerous experiments. His progress was slow but more stable. He knew that only by laying a solid foundation could he explore the broader magic world in the future.
As time passed, Thomas gradually regained his status in the academy. His story became a warning, reminding all magic apprentices that the power of magic was a double-edged sword and must be used with caution.
Thomas didn't forget that terrifying experiment. He took it as his motivation for growth. He knew that only by continuous learning and progress could he avoid making the same mistake again. His determination and efforts eventually made him a respected magician, and his story also became a legend in the academy.
