Chapter 3 First Steps to Magic (Part 2)

"It's moving, it's moving, teacher, the boat is moving."

Coris pulled Ah-Dai in front of him, glared at him, and said, "Do you still remember what I taught you yesterday?"

Ah-Dai blinked and said awkwardly: "I, I forgot." For the past two days, Coris has been teaching Ah-Dai to learn some knowledge about alchemists. Unfortunately, Ah-Dai's brain is really slow.

, can’t even remember a few simple terms.

"Huh. I know you forgot again. Forget it, I don't think you can remember anything? Just sit cross-legged on the bed."

"Oh." Ah-Dai responded and sat down as instructed by Coris. Coris stood beside him and said in a deep voice: "You can continue to learn the terminology when you return to my place. During this time on the ship, I will first

Let you feel what magic is. The so-called magic is to use your own spiritual power to communicate with the various elements contained in the world, and use your spiritual power to urge them to do what you want to do. I don't expect you to understand now,

Later I will inject my own magical power into your body, you close your eyes, feel what you see, and then tell me."

Dumb nodded, closed his eyes, and said, "Yes, teacher."

Coris said: "I request that within three months, you must at least learn the two simplest magics of fireball and flame. Otherwise, I will not give you food. Okay, collect your mind,

Use your heart to feel the power I send out." As he said that, he stretched out his right hand, pressed it on Ah-Dai's shoulder and muttered a few spells in a low voice.

Duan felt his shoulders heat up, and he suddenly remembered the torture in the hotel that day, and his whole body was shaken.

"Get rid of distracting thoughts." Coris said in a deep voice.

The heat flow was transmitted into the body through the shoulders. It seemed that the heat had no sign of increasing, but was just constantly circulating in his body. Ah-Dai couldn't help but feel relieved. He had no distracting thoughts in his mind. After a while, he was actually in the heat flow emitted by Coris.

Fell asleep hazily.

At first, Corris thought that Ah-Dai was immersed in the ocean of magic elements and was intoxicated, but after a long time, he remained motionless. This method of transmitting magic power could only transfer the inherent magic power in his own body into the other party's body.

It was impossible to summon the magic elements in the air, so even the magic level of Coris found it difficult. He slowly retracted his right hand and said: "Tell me, what did you see? Dumb, dumb. Eh, okay.

, you kid, you actually fell asleep, wasting so much of my energy in vain, you are so angry, so angry."

A small water ball exploded on Ah-Dai's face. Ah-Dai, who was having a good dream, suddenly woke up and said, "Ah! It's snowing, it's snowing."

Corris hit Ah-Dai on the head angrily and said, "Here you go, what did I ask you to do just now? But what have you done?"

Only then did Ah-Dai see his situation clearly, and he also remembered some things from before. He lowered his head and said, "Teacher, I'm sorry, I was so comfortable just now, so I fell asleep."

Corris barely suppressed his inner anger and said coldly: "Tell me, what did you see just now? Don't know anything. If you don't know, then there will be no food for today."

As soon as he heard about the meal, Ah-Dai suddenly became more energetic. He scratched his head and thought, I didn’t see anything just now! How to answer. However, the temptation of the meal was too great. Ah-Dai thought about it and decided to take what he had just said.

He wanted to tell his sweet dream to see if he could get away with it. Thinking of this, he looked at the serious-looking Coris and said: "I, I just felt hot all over my body, and then I became confused. Later, I saw many, many children.

Come and play with me. Each of them is holding a small red steamed bun in their hand, as if they want to give it to me. I collect it and collect it, but I can't get it. I also want to give them my own things, but,

I had nothing on me, so I had to give up. Later, you woke me up."

Coris was secretly shocked when he heard this. How could he not understand that what Ah-Dai was talking about was his dream. Although Ah-Dai was asleep, what he described was actually related to the element of fire, and those children who were playing with him were all his.

The fantasy in the dream, and those red balls are the fire elements between heaven and earth! Why are the fire elements floating towards him? Unless he is born with a pure fire constitution, but I have checked that he is not

Ah! I think back when I was learning fire magic, I could only feel the presence of fire elements around me.

Ah-Dai looked at Coris anxiously. He didn't know if his lie of using dreams to replace feelings would allow him to eat.

Coris stretched out his right hand and said: "Follow me. The fire element that fills the world! Please give me your warm power, condense it into a ball, and appear in my hand." With a puff, a ten-diameter diameter ball appeared on Coris' hand.

A few centimeters of fireball, and the surrounding air suddenly became hot.

Although Dui didn't understand what Coris meant, he still understood what term it was. He imitated Coris and said: "Follow...ah, don't read this sentence. The fire element that fills the world

Ah! Please give me your warm power, condense it into a ball, and appear in my hand." As soon as he finished reciting the spell, Ah-Dai suddenly felt something around him rushing towards his palm. With a puff, his hand lit up, a diameter of

A small fireball of only one centimeter appeared in the palm of his hand. Dumb was startled, fearing that he would be burned by the fire. The moment his thoughts moved, the fireball was extinguished.

Coris stared at Dumb in shock. It took him a long time to react. Murderous intent flashed through his eyes. He never thought that the silly boy in front of him had such a good magic talent. When he sang for the first time

This fireball spell only caused heat in the palm of his hand, but his master had already given him high praise. It is incredible that this unspectacular and somewhat silly boy could actually release a tiny fireball.

Already.

Dui also didn't understand why a small fireball appeared on his hand. He looked at his palm dreamily, and the two of them just stood stunned in the room.

After a long time, Coris extinguished the fireball in his hand and said: "Okay, that's it for today. I want to take a rest. You have clearly remembered the spell just now. The fireball he released floats on his hand and will not hurt.

When it comes to yourself, when you have nothing to do, just sit on the bed and silently think about those red balls, you know."

Duan nodded, trying hard to remember the so-called spell just now, and did not bother to look at the sea again. For a child who was only eleven years old, the curiosity brought by the fireball technique was far stronger than that of the sea.

many.

Corris ignored him and lay down on the bed with his eyes closed to rest. Fortunately, today was a rare good day. The sea was calm and the ship did not vibrate much, which made his symptoms of seasickness very mild. He thought,

If another magician saw Ah-Dai's performance just now, he would definitely be happy to accept him as his apprentice. His talent is indeed good, and he is getting older, so should he consider letting him pass on what he has learned? Corris shook his head vigorously

He shook his head, no, how could he break his plan just because his talent was good? As long as the final experiment is carried out, the child will definitely die. No matter how much he learns, what's the use?

after one day.

Dumb was sitting on the bed, his eyes closed and he was having fun playing with those little red buns. Coris suddenly woke him up. "Teacher."

"Well, let me try the spell I taught you yesterday again."

"Oh, the fire element that fills the world! Please give it, please give it. Ouch." All Dumb could remember was the first sentence.

Corris took back the hand that slapped Dumb. This stupid boy's memory is really bad. "I'm telling you for the last time. If you still can't remember, don't eat before getting off the boat. The world is full of

Fire element! Please give me your warm power, condense it into a ball, and appear in my hand."

Eating is the best threat to Ah-Dai. He tried hard to remember every word, "The power of warmth... condensed into a ball... now in my hand." He tried hard to remember the words that he was not familiar with later.

Part, sitting on the bed, kept chanting, over and over again. For such a simple mantra, ordinary people only need to recite it for a short time to completely remember it, but it took Ah-Dai to recite it for a long time before he could barely guarantee that he would not be able to do it.

forget.

"Teacher, teacher, I, I remember." Duan shook Coris who had just fallen asleep at any time.

Today's wind and waves were stronger than yesterday. Collis wanted to use sleep to offset the nausea caused by dizziness. He finally fell asleep, but was woken up. He said angrily: "What are you doing?"

Dui took a step back in fright and muttered: "I, I remember that spell."

Coris snorted and said: "You are the stupidest person I have ever seen. It takes you a day and a half to memorize a simple spell. What's there to show off? Read it again and listen."

The little self-confidence that Ah-Dai had finally built up was suddenly completely beaten by Corris. He lowered his head, stretched out his right hand, and whispered softly: "The fire element that fills the world! Please give me your warm power to condense into a ball.

, now in my hand." After the spell was completed, he felt the condensed unknown power again, and it was stronger than last time. With a puff, a small fireball with a diameter of three centimeters suddenly appeared in front of him.

In the palm of his hand. With the experience last time, Ah-Dai did not panic this time. He looked at the red flame carefully. His hand felt warm but not burning. Ah-Dai held the fireball in front of him and looked at it carefully.

, accidentally, a bunch of hair on his forehead was suddenly burned. "Ah!" In the exclamation, Ah-Dai's spirit suddenly lost control, and the fireball in his hand was extinguished, and an unpleasant burnt smell suddenly filled the air.

In the cabin, Ah-Dai slapped his hair desperately, and the tiny flame was extinguished. Unfortunately, his half-long black hair suddenly lost a piece.

Seeing Ah-Dai's embarrassed look, Corris couldn't help but reveal a smile, "Fire and water are merciless. Just because it's okay in your hands doesn't mean it's okay to do anything else. That's a real fireball. You're calling it a fire starter. Be careful in the future."

Open the door and let in the smell."

Duan kept panting. Although the scene just now made him miserable, the appearance of the fireball also filled his young heart with joy. For the first time, a feeling of respect for Coris arose in his heart, "Old,

Teacher, I'm sorry, I'm too stupid. I can't even use a little magic."

Corris thought to himself, then I'm not stupider than you. He has never seen anyone who can release fireballs to this extent after practicing for only two days. "Okay, don't say it anymore, be careful in the future.

That is, don’t forget the incantation.”

Ah-Dai nodded and said firmly: "I, I will never forget it, teacher." The fireball technique was the first magic that Ah-Dai learned. His heart was already full of love for the red fireball, and he sat down

On the side, he continued to recite the familiar mantra.

Two more days later, the voyage entered its final stage. Coris had not dared to leave the room these days, fearing that seeing the endless sea would make him vomit. All the food and drinks he had to eat and drink were asked by Dumb to ask the waiter to bring them to the room.

During the meal, almost 90% of the food in each meal went into Ah-Dai's stomach. Ah-Dai was a very well-behaved child. In the past three days, in addition to insisting on reciting the incantation of the fireball technique, he also meditated and practiced on the bed. The so-called diligence can make up for one's weakness.

In three days, he has been able to master the fireball technique very well and release fireballs with a diameter of about five centimeters. Gorris will occasionally give him some pointers on the application of fireballs, such as how to increase the temperature of the fireballs and how to make the fireballs cool.

The size of the machine increased, how to control the fireballs flying in the air, etc. Unexpectedly, Dui, who had always been stupid, found it easy to learn these application methods and mastered them quickly.

Dumb controlled the fireball to rotate around his body. He secretly thought that even if the teacher died in the future, he would no longer be afraid of the cold. It felt good to have the fireball to keep him warm. Fortunately, the magic that Coris knew did not include mind reading.

This kind, otherwise, the Qi orifices will bleed.

"Teacher, I want to get some air at the door." After getting along with each other for a few days, Dumb was no longer so afraid of Coris. After all, Coris had never beaten him and made him eat every meal.

Coris glanced at him and said: "Put your fireball away, just by the door. Don't go far."

Ah-Dai said excitedly: "Yes, teacher." After saying that, he waved his hand and extinguished the fireball in the air. He happily opened the door and walked outside. Standing in the corridor outside the cabin, Ah-Dai grabbed the railing and felt warm.

The sun shining on his body was indescribably comfortable. He took a deep breath of the salty air and looked at the place where the sea and the sky meet in the distance. He couldn't help but feel intoxicated.

"Huh? What is that?" Dui, who was intoxicated, suddenly noticed a black spot on the sea moving straight towards their passenger ship from diagonally in front. The speed seemed to be very fast, and the black spot gradually became larger.

After a while, the appearance of the black spot gradually became clear. It was also a ship. The hull was black in color and seemed to be about the same size as a passenger ship. There was only one layer on the deck. A huge white skull was painted on the huge black sail.

, there are two crossed bones under the skull. Dumb thought to himself, why is the color of their ship different from his own?

Seeing that the big black ship was gradually approaching, other people on the passenger ship seemed to have discovered this situation, and they kept shouting: "Pirates, ah! It's a pirate."
