"Recuperation should also be self-exnatory, it is the rate by which you recover your lost mana naturally, the faster the better but if your recovery is too fast, you might suffer from some mana sicknesses, it''s kind of eating too fast, so you would have to learn to bear the effects or manage to slow your recuperation yourself" Milo hadn''t thought that their could possibly be disadvantages to have a mana aspects way above average, he had imagined that the great mages one would sometime hear about were of those whose every aspects were off the charts.
Rosemary seemed to be implying otherwise however, walking through the halls, tormenting nobles and talentedmoners alike with insidious questions, the ssroom was much like an auditorium, the students were higher elevated than the teacher at her desk, only when she went by Milo did he realise that the fiery-coloured mage was actually quite tall.
In fact, he was fairly certain that he had never seen such a tall person ever, but more notable than this, with his meagre amount of training in mana detection, he noticed that he couldn''t sense her mana in the least, in fact, even when she had casted spells, he hadn''t noticed anything, he chalked it up to his proficiency being poor but was still rather impressed.
"Transmutation now, few are the mages who make use of basic mana on the regr, it is usually favoured to use the element one is aligned with, even those with no particr affinities tend to rather go through the bother of using an element anyways" she took a pause and stared straight at a random student, freezing him in ce.
"That is absolutely idiotic, basic mana isn''t something to leave behind, I would wager that basic mana will always be the mana you have the most control over, unless you are a special case and possess a specific trait"
"Keep on using mana in its raw form" she advised them, although it sounded more like an order.
"Thenes the power, or sometimes referred to as output, the capacity for destruction of each of our manas is different, it is an aspect that is nearly impossible to improve by simply training, thankfully, spells and condensing mana allows an easy way to improve fire power even with ridiculously low power"
"Once again, too much power can prove difficult to control, and may even bring harm to the caster, lot of items, such as most wands and staff increase the power however, but those are for special asions, or ipetents" she spoke thosest two words really quickly, as though they could be directed at someone in particr.
She quickly moved on, summoning two mes, making them orbit around her, the one closest to her spinning much faster than the one further away.
"Speed, exactly the same thing as power, they go hand in hand really, someone with both tremendous speed and power in their mana can cast a simple mana bullet and obliterate a sturdy creature, let''s say a bear, as an animal, it doesn''t have much magic defences, an average mana bullet would pierce without much problem, the one with great speed and power would make the poor beast explode everywhere" she mimed the explosion with her hands, apparently imagining it vividly.
"Resistance is much more important than you think, every year, the younglings seem to think everything is about maniption, power and speed, they are wrong and so are you!
If all of you casted a spell at me right now, I would be able to dismantle all of them, turn your mana into my own and throw it right back in your faces before you get the time to breath out" she casually imed, there were around fifty students in the ssroom, everyone here was talented in a way, some tremendously so, but she didn''t doubt herself one bit.
Of course, the students kept their mouths shut even if they highly doubted her im, it would be a bad look to get pped in the face by their teacher on the first day, perhaps some would grow braver at ater date.
"Resistance governs how well your mana can hold together against the ambient energies and the interference of other mages, it also governs the amount of time your spell will remain effective once you let go of your control, it is perhaps the most important aspect when in a battle against another magic user" she did a quick demonstration of what dismantling a spell looked like by calling forth a haughty-looking boy, that was actually all jittery from stress.
He casted a mana bullet as was instructed, Rosemary first stopped it in its track, and slowly demonstrated how to break down a spell, exining as she did it that it also applied to other energies and that they would be learning about those as well.
"Taking a spell apart is a skill affiliated with outer maniption, you can see how much more powerful a mage with good outer maniption would do against one that does not, none of their spells would be able to reach their target properly, if at all"
"Trait, as well as internal and external are rare specificities, trait are as diverse as it can get, your natural mana can be an element already or be attuned to one, those examples are the mostmon sorts of traits, but they can be much less obvious, I for example, possess mana that is already an element and is also attuned to various others, this means that I can skip the transmutation and cast spells even faster"
"Internal and external now, all of you here have internal mana, meaning that your mana doesn''t naturally overflow and wrap around your body, as you can expect, this means that those with external mana don''t need to bring their mana out manually, haveyer of protection at all times but also that concealing their mana signature is much more difficult" she went over those quickly, since for those that were concerned, they would receive personal guidance.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Rosemary quickly exined perception and range as well, those were very much simple, although, there was once again a downside to having too good of a perception, as it could get one easily distracted.
Their teacher then smiled and asked them all a question:
"Do any of you know thest aspect of one''s mana?"
''Hold a second…'' Milo counted real quick, fourteen aspects, Rosemary had spoken of all of them already, was it a trap?
He looked over at Helena, she was frowning and rubbing her chin, her face switching from one troubled expression to another.
Milo slumped in his seat, if she didn''t know, how could he? She had taught him everything.
