Chapter 3 - {Magic}

{Ghoul's Pov}

Cardinal World, Vramus Forest, Damp Cave Behind A Waterfall

Now that I knew how to use I tried using my other Skills.

Hey, Wait a second I just realized that my other skills didn't seem to be active-type ones but were actually more akin to passive buffs and the like

Still, I needed to know how my skills work in reality, But how do I do that?

[Just think about them, As I said earlier skills are instinctual, so just say the skill's name in your mind as you did with and you'll get the general gist of their inner-workings] The sometimes helpful voice in my head stated.

Alright then, What do you do?

....

Hmm, I see, so when fighting a losing battle if I still believe in my certain victory then I get supplied extra magicules and stamina by the world so that I can continue fighting without fatigue? That seems useful

'Wait isn't that basically 𝙋𝙋 (𝙋rotagonist 𝙋ower)?' I thought.

[Ah yes, My favorite story; 𝙍𝙞𝙨𝙚 𝙊𝙛 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙋𝙋] Companion joked.

"'There's a reason they call me the fastest wanker in the 7 seas, Kiddo' Sensei Fourtwentu said to our beloved MC; The Supreme Schlong Sorcerer, Werlin" I responded to their joke with my own.

Now, [Longing] what do you do?

...

Luck? So the more I want something the more likely I'm going to get it? hey, isn't that basically another 𝙋𝙋? I have so many of these I might as well be a protagonist.

[Who knows, You might be ;] But was it companion who said that or was it perhaps the 𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧? Who knows.

Well, seems pretty obvious but what the hell does do?

...

Well, That's just great. (This is sarcasm for those waste of society nerds who don't understand basic social interactions like Shneako)

I basically get turned on (not like that) when I see humanoids and go full berserker mode when I eat their flesh...

Damn, Why does the world not want me to forget about Lord Boner...

Well, Whatever so what's your job, or are you unemployed?

...

Naming? So if I name something with a hidden meaning behind the said name, The named object inherits the power of the name?

Is naming important in this world?

Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation.

[Yes, For monster naming is a special occasion because naming costs a lot of magicules and establishes a between the namer and the named however this is only the case for master-subordinate naming, Though apparently, the World decided that the other naming methods to be excluded from the basic information package, So I have zero clue about those] Companion revealed.

"I see... So can I name myself?" I asked Companion.

[Probably not] They responded.

"Well let's try it, I name this Ghoul; Thanos !" I announced to the world intending to gain the mad titan's infinite power

...

Unfortunately, nothing happened.

'Ahh, well it was worth trying'

"Wait, what if I name you Companion?" I asked.

[I recommend you to not do that, As your current soul will likely break down if it becomes a Manas vessel] Companion responded.

"What's a Manas?" I asked.

[Sorry, But that's not basic information] Companion responded.

"So you know things that aren't part of the 'Basic Information' ?" I asked suspiciously.

[What are you talking about?] Companion responded seemingly confused.

I see, so my theory was correct it seemed that Companion really was a fake person.

[Hey! AIs aren't "Fake" people, I'm genuinely offended now] Companion hissed.

"Well, Now that I know the functions of my skills what should I do?"

[How about a game of Murder-Death-Kill?]

"No, Let's just practice magic"

I cast on a slightly bigger rock but mid-casting I stopped, I then cast it again then stopped it again, and I repeat this process over and over again.

[What are you doing?] Companion asked.

"I'm observing the casting process of , I want to duplicate this procedure and cast the spell without any guidance from the skill" I explained.

[Smart, Though you should stop the spell before the magicules flows out of the gate since the magicules will disperse back into the world if they're not inside of a vessel] Companion responded.

"I see, That makes sense speaking of magicules, How do I gain more?" I asked.

[Simple. Living, Eating, Fucking, Resting, and just generally existing... or you 𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 absorb magicules from external sources] Companion answered.

"And how do I do that last method?" I asked.

[You'd need some magicule-rich artifacts for that 𝙤𝙧 you could try absorbing it from the environment, Though I don't recommend this since a high amount of mental concentration and focus is needed to do it properly and since you can't even cast a spell without using a skill you'll most likely fail] Companion responded.

"Hmm, Alright then" I stated.

Now, I decided to focus on learning internal magic control since how would I make any spells if I can't even make my magicules move?

The casting process went as usual and I stopped it before the magicules erupt from my gate.

Again.

Again.

"There it is" Through my observation I was able to conclude that when my magicules were not used, they seem to be stored in some sort of metaphysical sphere inside my bod- No it was not exactly inside my body but perhaps my soul?

Well, I'll call that sphere; Magic Core

When using my magicules depart from the core and flow into what I'll call the Magic Stream, And from the stream my magicules flow around my body and enter a gate of sorts which I'll call the Magic gate.

[I just wanted to let you know that you're very creative when it comes to naming] The sarcasm was dripping harder than my semen from yo mo-

Anyways, I didn't know much about what happened after the magicules leave the gate since I mainly stopped my spells when it reaches this point.

But, that was unnecessary since I only wanted to figure out the internal magicules.

[You have acquired the skill ]

Great! with this, I should be able to concentrate on my magicules more effectively.

Anyways, Now that I knew how magicules move around the body I try to simulate the instinctual actions I was taking when using the skill to cast the spell.

Cmon now, Move!

Move!

Move!

Move!

𝙈𝙤𝙫𝙚!

𝙈𝙊𝙑𝙀!

𝓜𝓞𝓥𝓔!

M̶̷̲̊ͥ͋͟O̵̷̪̰ͩ͆ͅV̷̬̈ͫ͢͢͝E̸̖̪̱͚ͨ̀͜!

ᒲ𝙹⍊ᒷ!

And boom, My magicules finally followed my instructions and moved around my body.

[You have acquired the skill
