Before mother gave me the book she told me that she couldn’t write everything in one book and will give me other bands of magic later.

I opened the book and started reading its content. I really love mother for writing more complicated things in an easy-to-understand way. When I finished skimming through it, I knew what she wanted to tell me.

To sum everything up.

“The human race was physically the weakest and the least intelligent race out of all 5. But humans had a hidden card. They adapted the fastest to their surroundings. So eventually some of them invented magic. It can be used for daily necessaries, experimenting or for fighting against stronger races.”

Till there I understood everything. It was simple history and described how magic got created. Now came the tricky part and how to use it.

“In order to use basic magic you have to feel mana. Feeling mana is like feeling Energy in your surroundings and controlling it is something like telling it to do what you want. For starters try to feel mana in your surroundings and try to gather it in one point.”

That was actually easy, at least for me. I could feel this so called mana since birth. I quickly got the hang out of it how to focus mana in one point so I started experimenting with it. I created a line of mana, a ball of mana. After some time I started forming the silhouettes of a demon but I was sad when I noticed that it dispersed after I stopped filling it with mana.

What wondered me was that mother also wrote something about so called elements.

“Magic can be categorized in basic, advanced and unique magic. Basic magic can be activated, if you try to fuse your mana with one of the elements. There are 6 basic Elements: Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Light and Darkness.”

That was all this book for beginner was about but it was quite helpful to understand the basic principle of magic. I didn’t know what advanced or unique magic was but I would come to know it if my mother writes the rest or I will come across it through experimenting. I was eager to try to use those 6 elements and to see how far I could come when trying to control them. Would I be able to form a ball with fire magic for example?

As I hoped that my mother will finish the rest of the books for magic I succeeded with fusing mana, like mentioned in the book, with the basic element, which sounded to me like the most interesting one, Darkness.

I was quite happy to succeed after only 3 tries and experimented with the rest of the elements through the whole night. I failed a lot of times with the other elements but in the end I was able to at least form a ball of magic of every element. I was bad when it came to light magic but I even succeeded with that. I finished my magic experiments with every element and as I did I ended it when I formed a figure with the element of Darkness. I was able to control that element like I could control normal mana.

I exhausted myself too much and fell asleep on the spot after dispersing the Darkness Magic. I fell asleep and nothing could wake me up for quite some time.
