32 History & Magic For Dummys 101

[Magic]

That word resounded in Caleb's mind, it felt odd, the idea of magic existing.

"What is magic "

[Try to answer that yourself?]

Confused at the proposition he had nothing to lose so he complied

"Ability to willingly create unnatural phenomena "

[Good enough ]

[One rule in this world is constant You cannot create or destroy energy that rule still applies to this world so, How is that creation powered]

Caleb paused not knowing what to say waited in silence for the system

"By some fucking wishy-washy unseeable energy in the air " Caleb said with a mocking tone with hand gestures that if anyone saw they would think he is an imbecile

There was an eerie silence which came over the room after the matter of fact but the silence was disturbed

[Effectivly ....yes, There exists energy which permeates this plain of existence produced by the twin suns ]

"What are we fucking plants photosynthesising magic now?"

[Incorrect, what is your definition of stars ]

"Balls of gas which is on fire ?"

[That would be correct in your world, have you seen any other planets when you peer into the sky ]

Caleb pondered thinking, the nights were always clear but there were no planets justthe stars in the night sky]

"There are no other planets or there to far away to see?"

[Former one is correct, this planet or should I say plain of existence, those stars are not stars they are tears in reality ,ports penetrating the etheric veil each and every one of those blips of light and even the suns,the twin suns were created by the 2 most powerful entities to exist in this dimensional plane in the age of myth and those small ones are from weaker being penetrating the veil]

Head racked now at the curve ball thrown at him

"the....fuck"

"i fell like my sense of scale just got shattered "

[You are a spec of sand in a desert ]

"That doesn't help!"

[with a slight glint ,which is me]

[Anyway on to the topic ]

Confused he needed to ask a question so interrupted quickly

"if their tears, in reality, how do you know,"

"does it get dark !"

[The planet is still a planet, though unusual they those tears have a rotational effect on the planet, Also another big point, that's why this planet is not propelled into space if there was space due to two suns gravitational pull ]

[Those tears emit a certain amount of energies when this magic is internalised it can make entity which can absorb it stronger, for example, the dire wolf is a beast enhanced by these energies who are apart of the lupus strain ]

"This the energy i have been absorbing to repair you? Also, does that mean I'm going to change"

[Yes and no, this energy would be better-considered essence, the energy obtained from killed creatures can be internalised by mortals whereas the raw form of these energies cannot be absorbed , The next question you will not change but with a sufficient build up it can empower you, so be happy ,you will not be a chubby incompetent oaf for too long!]

"How do I stockpile it hmmm, carry around a magic jar or maybe even a piggy bank ?"

[Normal mortals of this world are born with that vessel if you could call it that while i can act as yours even if im unwilling]

"Though this is a fun history lesson what does if have to do with magic"

[The energy when not internalised by creatures is in a raw form and this energy permeates every facet of the world, this can be used to create magic through runic application or incantation ]

"So as long as you know runes and incantations you can cast "

with a quick flourish and pose Caleb shouted "avada kedavra" while pointing his finger towards the empty air

[*face palm*]

[No, just no , Not anyone can be a mage, Mages are born not made, Mages are unique in that their body is adapted due to evolution to internalise this energy with the "mage organ"]

a playful smile crept along Caleb's mouth a mischievous aura was projected from his being

"would I be able to use magic?"

[No]

.

.

"Why?"

[Are you from a world where you are genetically adapted to being able to internalise unnatural energies ? ]

"No.... but still i have you "

[Ohhh i have a system i can do anything, Having a system only means you can shortcut things in life people needed to work hard for ?]

"That hurts, but still...can you make me a mage"

[No shit i am a system, a fucking cheat code, a universal key...]

"...But"

[Well how to put it bluntly, Some fucking how you will have to develop some sort of magical skill first before skills can be created to actuallysoooooo good luck on that one ]

"So basically im fucked on that front "

[Yes]

"....fun"
