In order from lowest to highest: Bronze-5, Bronze-4, Bronze-3, Bronze-2, Bronze-1, Silver-4, Silver-3, Silver-2, Silver-1, Gold-3, Gold-2, Gold-1, Diamond, Obsidian, Black-gold, Double Black-gold, Legend

-The higher the ranking, the higher the mana cost to cast and maintain

--There are less of the higher level spells than the lower level spells, so the number of sub classes also decreases.

“Bookworm, could you please deploy tactical retreat protocall 12Ad345 immediately.”

“Why Drin? Why? I have enough trouble remembering all of the protocols without you changing the names every time you use them! Now is the above mentioned protocall the one where we lock ourselves in, or the one where we run away to some remote place and hope for the best?”

“The third one Bookworm. The one where you establish portal to ‘some remote place’, lock up the lair with the highest level spells, and we jump through the portal, leaving no trace that we ever were there.”

“Not that one! Pleas, anything but that one!”

“No. We are going to stay at Cam’s place, and it’s been such a long time since I’ve seen him. We are going.”

“You just want me to do all the work while you get the easy way out.”

“What makes you say that?”

“I’m not even going to try to answer that one Drin. but I am putting Yamada to work under me for this job. I hope that she will learn how to better her mana control.”

“Fair enough. I’ll allow it. What spells will she use?”

“Only one. Mana Reservoir. She can replenish more than enough mana on her own. So I will have her cast it at a double black-gold level.”

“Double black-gold? Why not at Legend?”

“Because double black-gold is the best rank for honing mana control, and maybe even learning Mana Steal.”

“When will you allow her to learn attack spells?”

“Always, and never. The most powerful attack spells are derived from the peaceful buff/debuff class. I will teach her those spells, along with healing class, stealth class, transportation class, and defensive class spells. If she chooses to learn attack spells, she will have to do that on her own, as the proper method for attack spells is, in my opinion, to let the disciple discover how the magic affects their fighting.”

“Smart. Are you sure about that method though? It seems dangerous.”

“You are forgetting who is the disciple here. Yamada has the most elastic vitality I have ever seen. She fully recovered from ten straight rounds with Emiliot in just an hour! Not many can say that they even made it through ten rounds against her, much less recovering completely in just an hour.”

“I see. And you expect her to sustain it for the duration of the portal deployment?”

“Eventually. She learns best through experience, but this may take a little time for her to master the spell. She maybe even be able to get it to Legend, all on her own. She has insane mana capacity, and spells tend to class up if the caster’s mana is properly controlled and is their mana is at a high enough level.”

“Fair enough. Well, best of luck to the both of you, and I will see you once we’re packed up.”
