"Magic?!"

Vincent was surprised by Randolph's question; he didn't actually expect it.

"Yes, magic." "Don't tell me you don't know it too."

Randolph's expression was calm and natural, but there was a strange look on his face; his demeanor had become slightly different.

"Of course, I know that magic exists, but in reality, I don't know anything About it.”

Vincent scratched the back of his head; he didn't want to show any strange signs that he had only learned about the existence of magic today.

"Do you want to learn it then?"

Randolph's questions were very direct, as if he wanted to get to something.

Vincent's eyes sparkled; he could anticipate where this conversation was heading.

"Yes!"

Randolph's expression did not change even a little. He nodded slightly while looking away. Then he looked back at Finn.

"Well, if you're that eager to learn magic." "I can become your teacher."

"What!"

Finn's eyes were wide open, and his mouth was agape in shock. He couldn't analyze what he heard. Since he learned about the existence of magic in this world, Vincent had a strong desire to learn it; he didn't know why, but he felt that he had to learn it.

"From now on, I will be your teacher, until you can find your way out of the North Moon forest."

Randolph's expression was just as it was, unchanged even slightly. He looked directly into Vincent's eyes and waited for his answer, even though he already knew it.

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

Vincent didn't say anything for a while, but he soon agreed. And since that day, he began his training in magic.

He was sitting on a wooden chair, and directly in front of him was Randolph. He had said that he would start his training now, but Vincent didn't know how that would happen.

"Well, since you don't know anything about the basics, I will assume that you don't know anything about the paths either, right?"

Randolph raised an eyebrow as he awaited Finn's response.

"No, I don't know anything about that either."

Vincent answered hesitantly. There were some concerns that he might say something illogical in this world. As if he is saying there are no giant buildings in his original world. That's why sometimes he hesitated to say anything.

"Okay, no problem..." "First, lesson one: the paths. I hope you pay close attention to what I'm saying, because I won't repeat it."

Randolph said firmly, his way of dealing with things had changed since he decided to teach him magic; he had become more resolute now. Vincent nodded his head vigorously.

"The paths... In other words, these are the laws of the world; without them, chaos would reign throughout the entire world. For example, look at the fireplace, what do you see?

Vincent looked at the heater next to him.

" fire?"

he Answered, but at the same time, confused.

"Well, it's not entirely wrong, but no..." What you see before you is, in fact, the law of combustion; without it, it is impossible for anyone to ignite even the smallest candle, even if their fire is larger than the sea.

There was a look of confusion on Vincent's face; he expected to hear strange things, but not to this extent. Randolph saw the look of confusion on Vincent face and chuckled a little at it.

"The other thing is that all paths build upon each other; in other words, the law of ignition paves the way for a person to learn the law of fire because it is a simpler concept of fire, and this applies to the other paths as well." What makes a difference in learning pathways is the extent to which a person understands the world. "Without understanding, a person cannot learn the easiest paths."

Vincent and Randolph remained in this state until night fell. Randolph didn't notice that he had been talking for hours, while Vincent didn't realize he was listening with such intense focus that he felt a severe headache.

Mages were classified into twenty levels, with a significant difference between them. Randolph said that there is a difference between levels, and with each level a person reaches, their understanding of the pathways increases, as does their capacity for comprehension. There is no significant change between each level, for example, the difference between level 5 and level 10 is not considered very substantial. But the real change was at level 20. the number of people reaching this level was very few; they could be counted on one hand, at least on the planet Neonad. The individuals who reached level 20 were revered throughout the continent of Azforth. They were characters with a pride that pierced the skye. Those who attained level 20 were referred to as the legendary entities, individuals who broke through the barriers of their bodies and became beings with a high mastery over the laws.

Randolph also spoke about the rune, but this time in more detail. As he said before, It is a form of magic, but it is not used for attack or defense; rather, it is used to change the physical states of matter or living beings. Like a ticking time bomb, or the ignition rune known as Randolph, it wasn't the resources that caused the explosion, but rather the rune that was drawn on it. Also, the runes can change the genes of the monsters, whether by adding additional elements to them or by increasing their resistance to certain things. Or add new abilities to the person, such as increasing endurance or boost in the strength. All of these things can be done by a rune user, or a trained and experienced rune master. Rune masters are considered some of the most important individuals on the continent, because they have the ability to change the balance of any fight, all due to a simple rune.

After that, Randolph told Vincent to go to sleep. Today was just about creating an imaginary picture in Vincent’s mind of what the world of magic is like and what obstacles he will face. He went to the straw bed and lay down there, his head swirling with many thoughts and excitement about tomorrow. This was the first time vincent was excited for a new day.
