Basically, the concept of time is targeting a person or thing and adjusting the time element around them. This is basically the basis of cosmic magic. And only those who have an affinity to it are able to use it, me being the exception. But that is mainly because of my amazing op system. But from what I am looking at, now that I am really picking this magic circle apart. The runic equation can be changed in many ways. Like, let’s say you want to cast haste on someone to make them quicker only speed wise. You can do it without aging the person. If you want to slow a target to a crawl, you can do the same thing. And if you wish to kill someone, you can easily attack their age and fast forward it to the point that they die.
With this said, none of this would be possible if the limiter was still there. Only by removing the limiter can you do much more with this element. But what makes me curious is why such a limiter was pressed into the magic circle in the first place. Adel said he just knew how to cast it as if it came to her. If that is the case, then there might be another reason for it that we do not know, like maybe some form of a higher power. If this was Earth, I would laugh at such an idea, but this is a world of magic where everything is possible.
I once again rewrote the magic circle, this time without the limiter, and as I finished the spell, the entire thing turned golden in color. “Oh? Now, this is quite interesting….”
“Huh? Why is it gold!?” Adel asked as she looked at the magic circle in front of me in awe.
“Your time element is much more than we thought. After I removed the limiter, it returned back to its true form.” Even I was surprised at what I was looking at. Without the limiter, the mana consumption is also reduced to like nothing. “One hundred mana per use. You can even replace a few things in the magic circle to allow them to do other things. Like buffing people to make them faster. Or as you asked. Kill someone by aging them.”
“This….” I could tell by the look on Adel’s face that she was finding it all hard to believe but in front of her was a carbon copy of her normal spell but unrestricted and seemed even omnipotent.
“Adel, see this here.” I pointed to a section in the runic equation. Adel got close and nodded her head. “This is the key to deciding what you want to do with the spell. This is also up to your imagination as long as it has to do with time. Like, let’s say I did this.” I stood up and drew another magic circle, this time, I did plan to use it, but only one me. “Haste!”
As soon as I said that, I felt like every part of my body began to speed up. I took a step forward, and it was as if I had teleported because I ended up half away across the room in a single step. I then turned around and took another step forward, returning to where I stood before. I canceled the spell and sat back down. “As you can see, haste speeds up the actions of the body, nothing more. But you can do many things with it now. Just do not cast anything that will kill anyone. There will be plenty of goblins for that.”
“Ri-Right…” Adel seemed still in a daze. I still want to make a time domain where she can freely control time within a certain distance around her, but I figured this was enough for the time being.
“Practice with haste for now and keep the output low. Once you get used to it, raise the output a bit.” I figured it would be best for Adel to start slow since I do not know the adverse effects of this kind of spell. I feel fine now, but I am not sure Adel’s body could take such speed.
“Mmm…” Adel nodded and stood up. She had already memorized the magic circle due to her now very high intelligence. I watched as she walked over to the side and sat down. She then proceeded to slowly draw the magic circle out.
I cleaned up the floor once more and sat there looking forward. Everyone was currently practicing their new magic, which was a good thing. “Sei and Sophie….”
These two I did not know what to make for them. Sophie already had a very op spell which allows her to phase in and out of reality. While Sei was already very strong. “I guess with Sophie, maybe a spell that will allow her to do more damage with her sword….”
“Mmm… A way to increase my attack ability would be nice.”
“AhHH!” I yelled out. I was so lost in thought I never noticed Sophie sitting next to me, so when she spoke, it scared the crap out of me! I held my chest and blushed from ear to ear. Everyone had looked over and was giggling at me. I pouted my bottom lip and looked at Sophie with an aggrieved expression. But instead of her trying to make me feel better, she giggled along with everyone else. It must be pick on the dragon day, right?
Clearing my throat, I decided to ignore everyone else as I thought long and hard. A spell that could increase Sophie’s abilities was not something that was easy to create. She was already using many body enhancing buffs. “Maybe a way to quicken her attack speed while enhancing her strength?”
Colossal strength, wind rush, and acceleration were all highly effective body buffs that most swordsmen used. But they could only do so much…. What if I configured acceleration to do more than just make someone run faster? What if I can make it apply to other parts of the body….
I was starting to get an idea of what would work. Whether or not it will or not is another story. The spell acceleration was supposed to be a movement speed spell but it is not exactly stated in the runic equation on what it affects. If i can create a spell that stacks with acceleration it would make her combat prowess soar.
