I'm at the training center, riding Tina's auxiliary magic regiment, practicing magic manipulation.
Normally, I start by feeling the presence of my magic, but I was able to see it from the beginning because my profession is a wise man.
I can see the amount and movement of my magic and that of others as blurry. And the profession of sage seems to require correction not only for seeing magic, but also for manipulation of magic.
"Like this?
"Yep! Excellent, Master Hart. I can't believe all of a sudden you can move magic."
Let the magic you feel in the center of your body go thin across your body first.
And let it move little by little into the hand that protruded forward.
Magic gathers in my hands.
From here, it originally releases magic outside my body, but I didn't do it.
When the concentration ran out, the magic gathered was dispersed, manipulating the magic to look like it was...
Tina may wonder if she can do too well.
"Thanks to Tina's magic team."
I decided that I owed it to the magic team.
It is true that the magic formation makes magic manipulation somewhat easier to do. But the truth is, I knew I could manipulate magic without having to ride the magic team.
"This magic formation only has the effect of aiding in a little magic manipulation. It seems to me that Hart's gift is very smooth to move magic."
Tina said that with pleasure. They seem to think it's too much, but they think it's just talent.
Speaking of which, my sister had talent for magic and had already been able to use intermediate magic when entering magic school.
Tina naturally knows that, too, so maybe she won't be greatly surprised enough to suddenly be able to manipulate magic about me. Thank goodness for my excellent sister.
"Thanks. I'll try to practice some more."
"Yes, by the way, the magic diffused into your body returns immediately for the price, but when released out of your body, that amount takes time to recover"
"It is."
"If you are Hart, you are likely to be able to release magic into your body next, but please note that fatigue can come at once if you release magic"
"Yes."
"It's a way of releasing magic, but I gather magic in my hand, just like I did earlier, but even more so, imagine my hand reaching out at the end of my hand, and gather magic there."
All right, Doctor.
Apparently you can do a magic release, so I decided to try.
As before, first, let magic pass across your entire body. And gather it in the right hand that protrudes its magic.
Turn your consciousness from hand to hand tip.
The magic began to build up in space as it reached out of my hand.
"Sounds good! Imagine a flame that burns if possible"
"Flames?"
I saw the flame earlier. Tina's flaming magic, nearly five meters away, with so much heat on her face...
So it was easy to imagine.
"Ooh!"
The magic I keep at the tip of my hand turns into flames.
It's right next to my hand, but it's not as hot as it sounds.
It feels strange.
Then I try to shape the flame into a spear like Tina was doing.
"Firelance!"
Imitate Tina and cast a spear of flame towards the newly prepared target as she chants.
The flaming spear hit the target as it flew straight, and vanished after it burned up a little.
To the extent that it has small burn marks.
"I can't believe you could activate magic in a complete way from the start,"
Tina looked at a slightly burnt target with a surprised face.
He thought he might be able to do it to the point of turning the nature of magic into flames, but he didn't think he could fully activate the magic of fire.
I was a little glad Tina was surprised.
After all, if you came to another world, you'd be like, 'What the hell, wow!' I'd like to be told.
Well, I guess this is the limit, even if it took me a lifetime to train because of the status-fixed curse.
"Master Hart, is your body lazy or not?
"No, it's not like that."
"When you use magic for the first time, a lot of people usually run past a lot of magic and run out of magic even with one low-level magic shot such as Firelance."
The lowest level of magic, Firelance, consumes 2 magic.
So with 10 magic powers, I can shoot Firelance up to five shots. Calculation, but apparently, being able to shoot with 2 consuming magic is difficult without some good magic manipulation.
Sure, when I used Firelance, I felt my strength fall out of my body, but it wasn't enough to feel lazy. Is it a correction by the profession 'Sage'?
"I think I can still shoot you, but can I practice?
"Of course it is. But don't push it."
"Yes!"
He then fired three shots at Firelance and finished his magic training.
Actually, I still seemed to be able to shoot, but I stopped hitting the fifth shot because Tina looked so anxious from around the third shot that she would persistently ask me about her health.
─ ─ ─ ─
The next day, I was in the training room alone.
Tina is out shopping in the city.
When I said I would train alone, Tina seemed anxious.
"Okay? Never let it happen. If you feel any worse, ring this bell."
That's what they gave me. Bell had a small drawing of the magic formations I'd never seen.
"What happens when you ring?
"I'll fly right in"
"You mean you can tell you rang even if you're far away?
"It's like that. Please don't push me."
Tina went out, leaving to say that she would be back as soon as she had finished shopping.
"Now, do you experiment with how far you can go"
I didn't care about Tina's eyes, I was going to try and shoot Firelance to the limit. I stopped with four shots in yesterday's training, because I felt okay shooting more.
Go for it.
Release the magic from your hands and set it on fire.
Turn the flame into a spear.
"Firelance!"
Flaming spears fly away.
So far as the flaming spear is away from my hand, I begin my next magic release.
"Firelance!"
Second shot.
I can still go.
"Firelance!"
"Firelance!"
I tried shooting him to keep standing two shots.
No problem at all.
"Fire, Fire, Fire, Fire!!
Weird......
No matter how many shots you shoot, your body won't be lazy at all.
On the contrary, magic is released smoothly, and the timing of releasing magic is getting faster and faster.
I ran out of breath where I released about thirty shots of fire, so I stop the magic release once.
One shot is weak because it is the lowest level of magic, but when it hit exactly thirty shots, the target was burning black.
I wonder why. I don't feel like my magic is diminishing.
Hmm, something that can't somehow confirm the magic consumption...
"Ah!"
Here I flashed.
"Status Open"

With the status board out, if you can use magic, you know how to consume magic.
There was just one concern.
On the status board...
Magic: 10/10 × Fixed .
Even though I had shot more than thirty magic shots earlier, my magic power had not diminished at all.
Here, one hypothesis is past my head. If that hypothesis is correct, I may be able to act as a true sage in this world.
To test my hypothesis, I started preparing to shoot Firelance while I put out the status board.
