Magic?

The next day

Nate woke up to the chirping of birds above his house, Zurblis was a really beautiful and peaceful land filled with naturally beautiful sights.

Nate quickly freshened up and got ready for school, he put on the clothes which were gifted to him by Sir. Oluwale the other day and swiftly made his way to school.

Nate was peacefully walking when suddenly mud splashed on his face, “Aghh” Nate groaned in anger, he knew there was only one family in Zurblis that could be such dick bags.

“Hey loser, just wanted to remind you that you would never be greater than me. ” Nate heard the same voice he loathed with every cell in his body.

“That is what your father was told as a kid. ” Nate snorted, he knew what he just did was punishable by death but why would he care?

Mark's face turned red with fury and could be seen through the carriage glass, “You are lucky I do not have time for incessant fools like you. ” Mark said angrily and ordered the chariot driver to keep moving.

Nate was lucky Ivan Grey Whip, the Lord of Zurblis was an extremely kind man and rarely supported his children's evil doings, or else he would have been hung many years ago.

Nate managed to wash off the mud from his face and continued his journey undisturbed throughout, he made his way into the Academy and navigated his way to his class.

The same thing repeated itself, there was a small stream separating the students and Sir Oluwale, Sir. Oluwale sat opposite the students at the root of a tree and the students sat under a stage.

“Yesterday, we focused on battle and martial arts, I tested you all by seeing what you could do fighting against those magical dolls.

Some of you did poorly, some exceptionally well, while some were outright crazy geniuses.

I was able to get a rough scope of your talents, abilities, and determination when it comes to battle yesterday which was the purpose of the class but today I want us to do something a bit similar. ” Sir Oluwale said, making sure to take a dramatic pause and observe the face of everyone.

“I want to see what you can do with Magic, as you may all know this is the battle mage class and it deals with training in magic and battle, yesterday I trained you in battle today we shall see what you can do with magic. ” Sir. Oluwale said with a little smile on his face.

“Sir, please what is magic? ” A short black-haired boy asked curiously, magic was not something well-taught or well-understood by everyone.

“Wise question, magic can be defined as the manipulation of reality using Mana as an energy source.

Magic is a talent, a principle, and a gift not given to all, magic requires serious training and discipline before it can be properly mastered.

Magic could be used for anything like daily activities of lighting a candle to rewriting history or if the gods will it, time travel.

Magic is something that has existed since creation itself, humans could use it before the introduction of beasts, and having beasts makes magic more powerful.

However, there are different gifts from magic, some are blessed with the ability to control the elements, others can mimic the appearance of any object or living thing, and some are outright capable of splitting mountains with their breaths.

A magical individual can at least possess one of these gifts and at most so far, we have only witnessed a single individual who possesses three gifts of magic.

Magic can also be incorporated into physical objects like potions, flying chariots, magic weapons, healing pills, performance enhancement pills, etc, but that is what the forge masters, alchemists, and healers are for.

We along with the mages and wardens use magic for frontline battle, we do not need to spend our time in some lab researching magical formulas, we use their products to fight.

As a battle mage, you should be incorporated with at least one skill, if you fail to gain a magical skill by the end of this month I am sorry but I will ultimately have to recommend you change your field of study to the knight department.” Sir. Oluwale finished his speech with a heavy voice at the end, he had seen so many who thought they were special but at the end of the day lacked mana.

“Sir, is it possible for a non magical human to use Mana? ” The same short kid with black curly hair said, it seemed he was the most curious in the class.

“Yes, the first and most possible way would be for you to use magic skills from magical armor, the second is to engage in a forbidden ritual performed by witches which creates a dark mana core and grants you a temporary mana core in exchange for your life. ” Sir. Oluwale said with bitter eyes at the end, it seemed he had once been personally affected by this matter.

“Always remember one thing, no matter how pleasant it seems, witch magic is never the option and it would always, and I repeat ALWAYS take more than it gives, you could be able to use mana for ten minutes and then it would consume half of your lifespan, witch magic is poison and it would always destroy, it can never create and you will ultimately regret. ” Sir Oluwale said with more sadness in his eyes.

“So sir, what then is a mage? ” The same kid asked again, he seemed to always be curious or thinking of something mischievous.

“A mage is simply one who can use Mana, there are several rankings to a mage depending on their magical ability and talent.

Magi.

Mage.

Mage noble.

Mage Lord.

Mage Baron.

Arch Mage.

Transcendent Mage.

god Mage.

The Magi are the weakest and most basic rank while the god Mage is the most powerful magic user, only a few of them exist.

“Okay now enough of magic talk , let me see what y'all can do with Magic. ” Sir Oluwale said making Nate gulp.
