Volume 7 Chapter 29 - Elementary Magic Training Curriculum (1/2)

Of course, although the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s research reduced the scale of magic learning so that even normal people could come in contact with it, just like the basic subjects on earth, different people had different aptitudes. After the standard for studying magic was reduced, there was still a difference in aptitude, which was a new kind of “magic talent”.

For example, Freya was one of the most outstanding magicians in this new era of magic study.

Because her great grandfather was an Arch Magus, her father was the youngest Great Magician, and her mother was powerful Ninth Grade Magician who was only a step away from becoming a Great Magician, with Freya being born in this kind of family, it was impossible that she wouldn’t come in contact with magic.

Moreover, Freya had been very interested in magic since she was young, so since she was six, Arch Magus Camilla, Xu Yi, and Still would find time to teach her magic.

But different from most magicians on the continent, when Freya studied magic, she always accepted the redefined magic study method that Xu Yi made. She would always analyze the data of the magic before trying to grasp the spells.

Because of this, Freya’s understanding of magic was different from other magicians from the beginning. She didn’t treat it as a fuzzy concept, but rather she finely analyzed the magic that she learned before grasping it.

The problem with that was for Freya to learn any new spell, it would take much more effort and time compared to other magicians.

For example, when learning the most basic Fire Spell, the Fireball Spell, Freya used an entire week to successfully release a Fireball Spell. Compared to many of the Primary and Second Grade Magicians in the Frestech Academy that only took an average of three days, this was much slower.

As for talented magicians like Arch Magus Camilla, Xu Yi, and Still, she was far lacking.

But the benefits of this was that after Freya mastered this Fireball Spell, the first fireball that she sent out had reached the pinnacle of what this Fireball Spell could do. In terms of elemental magic energy stability, the shape of the fireball, and magic power and elemental magic energy ratio, it could all be considered nearly perfect.

Moreover, once she shot out this first fireball, it meant that Freya had already grasped all the related knowledge to this Fireball Spell, which would increase the speed at which she would learn all other Fire Spells in the future.

For example, when a normal magician learned Fire Magic, the first spell that they would learn is the Fireball Spell since it was the foundation of Fire Magic.

Normally speaking, magicians with a certain amount of talent would learn it in two or three days.

The second spell that they would learn would be a bit more complicated. They could choose the Flame Spell, the Continuous Fireball Spell, or other spells. Magicians with a normal amount of talent would take a week or two to grasp it.

However, after Freya spent a week learning the Fireball Spell, the second spell that she learned was the Flame Spell and from the time she started to when she released it, she used less than half an hour!

Then in just three days, she had learned all the First Grade Fire Spells that were released by the Magicians Guild.

After learning this news, Arch Magus Camilla was so excited that he flew around in the sky a few times while shouting, “There’s another super magic genius in our family now.”

Xu Yi was calm because he wasn’t surprised by Freya’s performance at all.

To him, a thing like magic was just using the magic power in a magician’s body to draw in the corresponding elemental magic energy in the air. Then arranging those elemental magic energy before releasing the energy that was contained within it with a certain method.

This was no different from lighting a piece of firewood.

Although Freya had spent a week learning the Fireball Spell, what she had grasped in that week wasn’t just for the Fireball Spell. She had grasped how the characteristics of Fire Elemental Magic Energy, as well as how to arrange that Fire Elemental Magic Energy.

So she was that fast in learning new Fire Spells because for her who had grasped the essence of Fire Magic, she was just learning how to arrange the Fire Elemental Magic Energy in new ways.

If she wasn’t limited by her own magic power, Freya would have been able to release even higher grade spells.

But speaking of magic power……

“Freya, how has your magic power increase been going lately?” Xu Yi asked Freya.

Freya slightly knitted her brows and looked a bit depressed.

“It’s been very slow over the past few months. Dad, have I reached my bottleneck like great grandfather and grandfather Turner said?”

“What bottleneck, there’s nothing like that.” Xu Yi curled his lips in disdain.

The magicians of the continent had always thought that there was a “bottleneck period” when they increased their magic power. The meaning was that once a magician’s magic power reached a certain extent, they would find it harder to increase which meant that they had reached their bottleneck. Only when they broke through this bottleneck would they be able to greatly increase it again.

But for Xu Yi, this was just nonsense.

Because this so-called “bottleneck” didn’t conform with scientific law at all.
