Since the lightning magic of our family didn't follow the rules of normal magic, it was very hard to confine them in a rank and measure their strength. And since it doesn't have a chant or magic circle, teaching it also gets harder and harder when the strength of magic gets higher. This is heavily related to the fact that a magic of strength higher than the 6th rank can't be used on the people if they are not high-ranking magicians.

And that leaves the members who obtain the legacy with a high time consumption to learn since they can only rely on their own observation skills until they reach higher stages.

Anyway, after my father basically engraved the magic of first ranks into my head, he approached me and congratulated me.

"From this point on, you just need to watch. Let me show you the true strength of a mage and what true destruction is. Father said that and closed his eyes."

And after that, the fun part began.

The moment Father closed his eyes, the sky started rumbling. From every direction, thunder started pouring, from bottom to top, and sky to the ground. Everywhere started flowing with lightning strikes.

However, suddenly the lightning started flowing at just one point. All the mana started pointing out to that point.

/CRACK/ /BOOM/

And following that was a thunderstrike. However, it was such a huge strike that the water surrounding the place it stroke was evaporated.

'I see. So this is how magic of 6th-rank looks.'

Thinking like that, I kept my focus on the magic father showed.

------

"Now, I will show you how to transform yourself into lightning."

------

"This is how you generate your own lightning javelin."

-------

"This is the strongest magic to destroy."

-------

Just like that, Father kept conjuring his magic without any signs of stopping. There was not a thing I did aside from watching the magic father conjured. Sometimes he turned himself into lightning, sometimes, he used lightning as a defense mechanism, and sometimes he used it for destruction.

At some point, I had already lost my sense of time again, but this time not because of the pain but because of the amazement itself. No matter how much I saw it, it didn't matter. The ecstasy I felt when I saw the magic, the excitement I felt when I thought I would be able to use it one day. Those were the things that made me go through all those complex magics without losing my focus, and at some point, the end already came.

When he conjured his last magic, there was a faint smile on his face.

"I don't have anything to show you anymore. Once the time comes, you will be able to use all the magic I showed you in this place, and I believe you can. There is one thing left for us to do."

Father said with a proud smile and approached me and put his hand on the place where my core was supposed to be.

"My son, please don't get mad over the thing I am about to do right now. You will understand when the time comes."

And the moment he said that, a surge of lightning flashed in his eyes, looking at me. Following that was a lot of pain in the place where father was touching.

"ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!"

"I will now pass you my 'authority.' However, you won't be able to use any mana in your core for a while. I hope you are ready."

'What? Did he just say authority?'

I thought.

"This is the end of our training, Callius, my son. The road ahead of you, I hope you will be able to see the end of it."

Father said with a sad smile on his face, and at that moment, I lost consciousness. The last thing I saw was the slowly disintegrating body of the father.

----

When I woke up, the first thing I noticed was the weird feeling of fatigue. Since I was able to feel fatigued, that means I am in the real world now.

After that, I started looking around to see if I was still in the same place I had left. The little section in the library that I always was prohibited from coming to. And the answer was yes. I was still in the same place.

However, if there was one thing different, then it was the missing feeling of my magic core. At that moment, I tried sensing the mana around me, only to feel nothing in my core.

'Status,' I said in my mind and started observing the changes in the panel appearing in front of me.

The moment the status window appeared in front of me, a sudden sense of loss and bewilderment followed. The fact that my magic was sealed itself was making me mad. However, the moment I looked at my class, the feeling of anger suddenly vanished.

'I see, so that was what father meant by passing his authority. I can't believe he obtained the authority of lightning before he left this world.'

I thought in my mind. The reason why there is a second class on my status page is heavily related to the explanation of authority.

Authority is the transcendental form of using magic. However, to obtain authority, one needs to have the approval of the world will find itself. It is like being the apostle of the magic whose authority you obtained.

To show how rare it is, there are only 7 people who have the authority of an element in the world of Aegis.

And this is the reason why I won't be able to use my core for a while. Because right now, my core is unable to withstand the mana I will use, and I started going through a process of reforging with the transcendental lightning mana itself.

But it is worth the price. The fact that I obtained the authority of lightning just with the price of not being able to use my core for a while itself is such a huge gain that I can't believe it happened at all.

However, that doesn't mean I won't be able to use magic. No, assuming that is wrong. When I said I wasn't able to sense the magic in my mana core, it didn't mean I couldn't sense mana around the environment.

No, I am actually able to sense it. However, now that brings us to the question. How will I use the magic if I can't access my core? Doesn't use magic require the mana in your core?

You might be asking those questions, and at this point, the good thing about authority comes in handy.

The reason why authority is so important is that it gives you the power to command the mana of the type you have the authority to. It is this simple. Right now, to use the lightning magic I want, I don't even need to conjure the lightning-attributed mana in my core at all.

While playing the game, the player can obtain authority over metal if you can complete a chain of sub-quests, and that would make Arthur pretty overpowered, to be honest. He would be able to conjure huge amounts of metal-attributed magic while fighting with the enemies, and with the existence of the holy sword, he would become invincible.

And to try that, I simply closed my eyes and started sensing the mana. But this time, I focused on the environment.

The moment I sensed some of the mana in the environment, I just pictured the magic in my head and 'commanded' the mana with my will.

/THUD/ /BOLT/

And following that was a sudden bolt of lightning attacking the ground.

'As expected, father really passed me his authority over the lightning. I suddenly feel like everything is being spoon-fed to me.'

Thinking like that, I left the library and went to my room. Before I left the library, I checked the clock only to see 2 hours had passed after I went to the library.

Since the aftereffects of the attack were still lingering around the environment, nobody paid attention to me on the way to my room.

'I need to change my plans. If I won't able to use my magical core, that means training my magic will not be possible. That only leaves me with the option to train my body.'

I thought on the way to my room. There is also the fact that my [All Seeing Eye] is close to reaching one star. It seems the time I used it in the astral realm also made me more familiar with my art. That is quite good.

Just like that, I reached my room and started playing with the lightning until I heard a knocking sound on my room door.

/KNOCK/ /KNOCK/

"Callius, I am coming in."

It was the sound of the person original Callius liked the most.

Alicia, she is here…
