Chapter 865 Workings Behind Magic



Fein's eyes widened, absorbing Imeng's words with a mixture of awe and understanding. "So, a stronger soul enables a mage to tap into greater reservoirs of magical power?" he asked, his voice laced with fascination.

Imeng nodded once again, a small smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "Indeed, Fein," he affirmed. "A mage with a stronger soul can access and channel larger quantities of magic, enabling them to cast more powerful spells and manipulate the elements with greater precision."

Fein's thoughts whirled with the implications of a stronger soul. "Are there any other benefits?" he inquired, eager to uncover the depths of this aspect of magic.

Imeng's gaze softened, a profound sense of serenity emanating from him. "A stronger soul also enhances a mage's resilience and ability to withstand the strains of magic," he explained. "It grants them greater mental fortitude, allowing them to maintain focus and control even in the face of intense magical energies."

Fein nodded, his mind buzzing with newfound knowledge. "So, a mage with a stronger soul would be more adept at handling the rigors of powerful spells," he surmised, his voice filled with realization.

Imeng's eyes twinkled with pride, a mentor's joy radiating from him. "Exactly, Fein," he affirmed. "A stronger soul not only empowers a mage's magical abilities but also serves as a foundation for their growth and mastery of the arcane arts."

Fein's heart swelled with a sense of purpose, his understanding of the intricate connections between the soul and magic deepening. "Thank you, master," he expressed sincerely, gratitude lacing his voice. "Your wisdom has illuminated the importance of nurturing and strengthening the soul on the path of becoming a formidable mage."

Imeng smiled warmly, his gaze filled with a blend of fondness and wisdom. "It is my pleasure, Fein," he responded. "Remember, the journey of a mage encompasses not only the acquisition of knowledge and power but also the cultivation of the soul, for it is the essence that breathes life into magic."

After their intense conversation, Fein and Imeng decided to take a breather. Imeng suggested that he would go for a stroll around the city, giving Fein some time to let all the mind-boggling magic knowledge sink in. Fein, eager to absorb everything, agreed and promised to digest the information while Imeng was away.

"Alright, Fein," Imeng said, stretching his arms. "I'll be back in about an hour. Use this time to let your brain marinate in all the magic goodness we discussed. When I return, we'll pick up right where we left off."

Fein nodded, his eyes bright with curiosity. "Sounds like a plan," he replied with a smirk. "I'll make sure to give my brain a good stir and let the magic soak in."

With a wave, Imeng left the room, leaving Fein alone with his thoughts. He slumped back in his chair, feeling both exhilarated and overwhelmed by the vastness of magical knowledge that had been dropped on him. It was like trying to cram a whole library into his head, but he was determined to make sense of it all.

Leaning forward, Fein rested his elbows on the table, his fingers tapping rhythmically. He closed his eyes and allowed the concepts to swirl in his mind, imagining the intricate web of magic weaving through the universe. The laws of magic, the power of spells, the connection to the soul—it was a lot to wrap his head around.

Lost in his musings, Fein's face scrunched up as he tried to piece everything together. He visualized Imeng's explanations, his animated gestures, and the way his eyes sparkled with wisdom. The more Fein delved into his thoughts, the more he realized how interconnected everything was. Magic, science, and the soul—it was like they were all dancing in perfect harmony.

A mischievous grin tugged at the corners of Fein's lips as he opened his eyes, his gaze shifting to the window overlooking the city streets below. He couldn't help but imagine the possibilities that awaited him. The power to manipulate time, harness the elements, and explore the mysteries of the universe—it was a journey he was ready to embark on.

Just as Fein was getting lost in his daydreams, he heard the sound of footsteps approaching. Imeng's figure emerged in the doorway, his face glowing with satisfaction. "Fein, I hope you've had a chance to let the magic soak in," he said, his voice filled with anticipation.

Fein straightened up, his excitement palpable. "Oh, you bet I did!" he exclaimed, a spark of determination in his eyes. "I've been brewing some magic in my mind, and I'm ready to dive deeper into this spellbinding world."

Imeng chuckled, his eyes crinkling with delight. "That's what I like to hear," he replied, taking a seat across from Fein. "You can already cast magic, right? You only lack spells? But let me explain to you in detail the workings behind it."

Fein nodded and caressed his chin. He could certainly cast spells but he doesn't know how it really works. Except for channeling his magic power to fuel the spells.

Fein sat patiently, his eyes fixed on Imeng, awaiting the next phase of his magical education. Imeng took a deep breath, his gaze focused and serene, as he prepared to delve into the essence of magic. With a calm yet authoritative tone, he began to explain the fundamental principles that underlie the intricate web of mystical arts.

"Fein, magic is not just a mere manipulation of external forces," Imeng began, his voice resonating with wisdom. "It is a profound connection between your inner energy and the external world. It is the channeling of your essence into a tangible form."

Fein leaned forward, his brows furrowing in concentration. He wanted to grasp the essence of magic, to understand the intricate threads that wove together to create spells and sorcery. Imeng's words hung in the air, carrying a weight that stirred Fein's curiosity.

Imeng continued, his hands gesturing gracefully to emphasize his points. "Your inner energy, known as magic power or also mana, is the wellspring of your magical abilities. It flows within you, pulsating with potential. It is through harnessing this energy that you are able to mold the fabric of reality."

Fein's eyes widened, his mind grappling with the concept of magic power. He could almost feel the energy coursing through his veins, waiting to be unleashed. He shifted in his seat, eager to explore this uncharted territory.
