After a few brief moments the light dimmed from my eyes, it let me see a wild landscape, there were trees everywhere which made me wonder if we were in some tropical area or something like that, the place looked the same as in my implanted memories, but it is different to experience it myself, the area only had a few huts, no structure too advanced, they were mostly simple you could see some small campfires and a small group of people, there was Helia, she was sitting on a small log, watching the Red Boar roasting, I was approaching the place so that shortly after she turned to my direction a few moments later.
"Ho!, Lin, you're here, you're lucky, the boar is almost roasted, come on sit down."
When she turned around she looked at me like a feline looking at its prey, I faced with this clearly serious problem, I had no choice but to obey, I sat down next to her, and she kept looking at me with that feline look that gave me a particular fear, the boar was ready and they started to call the whole tribe, surprisingly, it was a small tribe, you couldn't count more than 30 people in it surely, now that I remember, the birth rate in this tribe is strangely low, I wouldn't be surprised if it had gone extinct at any time, as the birth rate in this tribe doesn't go over one child every year so you could say that having young people with similar ages is strange in this tribe, counting the multiple diseases, the risky environment in the whole area and the strange ferocious beasts, I am surprised that we are still alive at this point.
I started to eat and look at the surroundings, you couldn't say it was very beautiful, but it was the best thing to look at considering there was no other form of entertainment....
"Hey Lin, do you have anything to comment on?"
Yes, no other form of entertainment, I was right, regretting my unhappiness, I only said a few words, the typical ones to say, Don't be fucking with me, but in a more delicate way.
"Nothing interesting happened to me today Ruscher."
At this moment I had no time to have beautiful and delicate conversations with unknown people, I had to plan what I was going to study, they gave me a very good ticket in my opinion, if it was anywhere else maybe I could not even gain much advantage, but hey, we are in the tribal era, it is the same as giving me a rifle and sending me to a war of the Medieval Age, as long as I am not too stupid I will not die easily, honestly it was stressing me to have to do something and not go back to my lazy days, but of course, I like to live, that is something I had very clear, so I would have to pretend to be a hard worker in the meantime and try not to die painfully because I made a small cut somewhere in my weak body, I like to live, that's something I had very clear, so I would have to pretend a hard working personality in the meantime and try not to die painfully because I got a small cut in some part of my weak body, after my brief reflection on my precarious situation it can be said that the food passed quickly, the adults were talking about planning traps and creating some other structures, we could not put much effort in complex structures because it was something impractical not having a strong stable source of food, but we could do something else, and meanwhile I was thinking about the content that would come in the theory books, I hope they are not too complicated, without more to do in the campfire area I proceeded to leave the place, again I was in the small hut, After being outside I realized that it was smaller than I thought, because it only had a small table and what looks like a bed, without more to say, I went back to see the books, even more motivated to get out of this pigsty as quickly as possible, I took the main one and the one that would seem the basis of all other hobbies.
[Introduction to Basic Magic Theory].
Already looking at it more closely, the book was very nice, it had a beautiful dark blue leather cover and the letters written in a shiny gold, just seeing those letters attracted you instantly, and the book when you opened it came with a small message.
[Welcome, whoever is opening this book, I wish you the best of luck to understand magic at unimaginable levels and touch knowledge that even I have not been able to touch, remember, do not let yourself be derived by useless and little versatile formulas, magic is more than that crap, Magic has no beginning or origin, has no rules or specifications while you feel and understand that it produces its change anything is possible with it, I say goodbye].
Attested: That Magician who was forgotten by the ages. Tom-----------
The name was cut off, I was surprised, maybe those beyond the divine didn't want it to be discovered, or maybe that's how the book was and they took it from a random dimension, well it didn't matter what it was, I just had to study it, move on to the first subject of the book it had a simple name, I like it, I like simple things.
Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.
[Theory of Magic for Dummies]
[Magic is inaccurate, even I after my long time of research I haven't been able to tear what produces it, nor why it is that it can form such ethereal changes in other types of elements, but one thing I have been able to notice is this, magic could be described as a wave, and at the same time not, magic can become a liquid for what I have observed, but magic is not something like air, but more ethereal, you cannot encapsulate mana in a bottle, it just passes through, it is as if it were smaller than what we know, I have seen countless places and seasons, and yet I am not clear what magic is, I have only been able to notice how it transforms, and it is through a kind of vibration, well, not exactly, but rather a kind of impulse influenced by external components, inner mana, outer mana and knowledge about multiple things, but it is similar to vibrate, magic vibrates until it finds an exact state or similar to the element itself, magic can not be classified as an element apart, but as a means for the transformation to another state, so things like mana bullets exist because they are not only mana, but the accumulation of numerous vibrations in a pure state of an unknown material close to the ethereal form and base of mana, thanks to this there can be great variations in magic, an example is to create an icy flame, something that is impossible by natural means known, an icy flame is imbued with mana which allows this instead of heating, Magic can create this type of natural treasures in an organic way and without any intervention of any type of race, which is even more incomprehensible to me, magic is also imbued in a natural way in diverse monsters, it is for those that animals only made of rock formations achieve movement and in superior phases a thought and instinct similar to that of any existing race, It is also thanks to this that allowed us to achieve the creation of intelligent puppets, but I will leave that for later, well, let's continue, magic can be touched in a simple and direct way even if it does not seem so, magic is determined by the realm of talent from that step, now, feel it faster or slower does not matter too much, just feeling it already puts you in a talent realm far superior to the known conventional races, and if feeling it is the only step to get in contact with the mana forces, now feeling it and controlling it are 2 completely different things, by feeling the mana, you can feel the mana of the environment around you, and glimpse even a little bit of what mana is which would allow simple spells without much difficulty but, to control it means to start to contain it and make it our own which allows more complex activities, we must make our body start to produce it in a natural way, in a few words, it is to become a purifying machine of the environmental mana and then store it in ourselves, how to store it and produce it? The way is simple, you must create a heart of mana, now why the heart? One of the most sensitive parts of the body where the smallest imbalance of its control can mean our almost certain death, yes, sure you will ask that, well, the heart is the only organ in our body that can transport all the mana to all our body in a safe way, as if it forces blood, the mana can not only be contained in one place, That would generate much pressure in space and leave auras of weakness and everything else in the body, what is sought is to achieve a balance throughout the body, to be able to store mana throughout our body gives us an easy way for almost infinite containment of this, although of course, the heart of mana must be able to withstand it, if you purify more than the capacity of your heart, it will simply expel the purified mana out of you, now, the mana heart does not work 24/7 for you, unfortunately for now you must actively collect the mana with your body otherwise it will be exhausted and you will not be able to use magic as easily as having your own mana, after this explanation, I will give you the steps to start feeling it, just close your eyes, take a deep breath and think in small particulars that the whole place, as if it was dust, yes, that easy, if you managed to feel it, congratulations after that I will tell you the next steps if not, you can just throw this book to the void and cry for your null magical attitude. ]
After that, I tried to look at the next page but it was simply indecipherable to my mind, as if something was preventing me from reading it, well, never mind, after reading it, I sat down, I did not use a lotus. pose or other strange yoga poses, they are just uncomfortable, I sat on the bed and simply followed the instructions, closed my eyes, took a deep breath and most importantly, tried to imagine the small particles....

Time kept passing, I did not open my eyes for fear of getting out of my concentration, I even wondered if I had fallen asleep and I had not noticed, I do not know how much time had passed, but I was still sitting and trying to see in the nothingness, everything seemed so silent, when suddenly little particles came out all over the black space, they were as bright as little stars in the distance, at that moment I activated my concentration to the maximum, and I kept trying to feel them, after a short time more and more particles started to appear, it seemed fantastic, and dazzling to me, I tried to make the particles come closer to me but that was all that happened, then they bounced off my body, at that moment I remembered an important part of the book, the heart of mana, only that fleeting thought was able to make me lose my concentration and open my eyes, I was tired, I didn't know what time it was, but it seemed that it was the time that I was tired, I didn't know what time it was, but it seemed that some hours had passed although it felt like an eternity, after that I just lay down on the bed, I was too tired to imagine anything, at that moment I just wanted to rest, I closed my eyes, but this time I was going to take a good nap.
