089 – Magic Tools & Magic Circles, Chants Too (John’s POV)

Editor: Poor_Hero

Magic is a profound and deeply interesting subject

It can protect people, it can hurt people It can increase our numbers, yet it can also decrease it

Right now,in our everyday life and even a snotty-nosed brat can produce a fire froic was only deeicians were held in high regards What would they think if they could see us now?

Such convenience was ht to thean to want ic, chants as well as ic circle, started

And I was one of them

There were numerous researchers who spent months and years on research but there were hardly any development

The reason for that was firstly, the chants and the circles Both had not been completely understood Or rather, we had more questions than answers Like the symbols, the shapes

Although we had soh for the sy those lines carry, or the placeic, the way of reading the chants and the circles were different

And from there, various theories were formed

One of the theory was that ‘ic’ is natural, like how humans are humans, how the world is just like that There are no reason behind it, it just exists, it just works like that

Another theory was, chants were speech and circles ords Magic is the result of a set of instructions from the world

I was a scholar studying and focusing on the latter It had not been proven, but a certain degree of regularity had been confirhtly different, it would be easier to think of it as a language In addition, chantless casting existed in this world Which ical to think chants and circles as an indication of support, or a coic

And as such, there wereto this ‘Magic Language’ theory

It was a bit too fast to say that the ‘Nature’ theory was obsolete but speaking of researchers, it couldn’t be helped that they would follow the one that they could actually research on

Ah, let’s just put aside the theories about chants and circles

There was a serious reason for the lack of development of the research

――――――――The problem of mana capacity

It hen a newhuge ae and the chant of the caster were not in sync Under norh amount of ic could not even be invoked

The caster would lose conscious as their ic was forced to invoke, the caster would end up totally drained

Which hy, apart froical tools were all putting their life on the line as they worked That hy it was naturally understood that high mana and education were needed for the jobs

And that’s the reason the research on ic hardly advanced
