Chapter 167 Fusion magic
Winona and Count Goltba close their eyes, focusing intently.
In their hands, they grip Thunderstones.
Previously developed by Glast, it is a magical tool with the same effect as a flint.
I watched their concentration with bated breath.
In the Count’s garden, in the darkness, lightning lamps and moonlight illuminate us.
In the midst of that, Winona and the Count simultaneously open their eyes wide.
“Fireball!”
“Rise in flames!”
Along with the incantation, red oral magic emerges from their mouths.
In an instant, it is drawn towards their hands.
Simultaneously, they use Thunderstones to create sparks.
The oral magic touches the sparks, generating blue flames that quickly vanish.
A few seconds of silence.
We exchange glances.
And then,
“So, we did it! We used magic!”
“We did it! We, we can finally use magic!”
The Count and Winona hold hands, expressing their joy.
Their genuine happiness is palpable.
“Congratulations to both of you! Now, officially, you two have become wizards!”
“Wizards! Just like Shion-sama!”
“Oh… at this age, I never expected something so thrilling!”
Yeah, I understand.
It’s exhilarating to be able to use magic.
There’s a kind of joy in having your own common sense overturned.
I remember the world I wished for before reincarnation, and how it completely changed.
I won’t forget that feeling for the rest of my life.
“Ah, there it is again… the usual… kyuu…”
As Winona seemed about to collapse, I barely managed to catch her.
Making small animal-like noises, Winona fainted.
“Oh dear, seems like their magical power ran out.”
“It’s no good anymore… flop.”
Count Goltba, who collapsed, also seemed to have fainted due to depleted magical power.
Both of them have been gradually increasing their total magical power, and they’re getting the hang of using oral magic.
However, it seems their magical power is still insufficient, causing them to faint.
Hmm, it seems the rate of increase and the limit of total magical power vary from person to person.
It might be tough if you only use oral magic with low magical power.
However, the situation has significantly improved compared to before.
Winona, who couldn’t use magic or magical power, has now grown enough to cast Flare.
While its power is limited, she undeniably used magic.
The Count is the same. He is definitely making progress.
After carrying the two to their rooms, I returned alone to the garden.
The surroundings were dark, silent, and somewhat eerie.
Yet, there was a solemn atmosphere that sparked my research curiosity.
Now then, shall I begin the experiment?
“Aqua.”
I chanted the spell.
Oral magic manifested in a single shade of blue, representing water attribute magic.
Using incantation magic alone to summon Aqua, a small water droplet was born.
The water droplet spun around the surroundings a few times before falling to the ground.
Alright, onto the next one.
“Aqua and aqua.”
With the incantation, Aqua was born again.
Oral magic now had two shades of blue.
However, the second water attribute magic was smaller compared to the first.
Aqua fell to the ground.
Next.
“Aqua and Aqua and Aqua.”
With the incantation, Aqua was born once more.
Oral magic now had three shades of blue.
As expected, the second was smaller than the first, and the third was even smaller than the second.
As Aqua fell to the ground, my thoughts began to form.
It became apparent that when connecting the same words, the quality of the attribute magic diminished.
Alright, onto the next one.
” Aqua, Aqua, Aqua.”
With the incantation, Aqua was born.
Oral magic had three shades of the water attribute.
The second was smaller than the first, and the third was even smaller than the second.
However, there was a difference from ” Aqua and Aqua and Aqua.”
The magical power of the second and third was undeniably less.
In other words, merely listing words weakened the effectiveness of the spell.
A spell must be composed as a coherent sentence that includes particles.
Next.
” Aqua, cold Aqua, Aqua pillar.”
With the incantation, Aqua was born.
Oral magic had three shades of the water attribute.
It had almost the same magical power and quantity as ” Aqua, Aqua, Aqua.”
However, the part “cold Aqua” had slightly more magical power.
It seems that using different words with the same attribute can result in varying magical power.
Let’s continue.
“Blue raging torrent, sweep away the enemy.”
With the incantation, Aqua was born.
Oral magic had three shades of the water attribute and two shades of the dark attribute.
The oral magic combined, resulting in a darker shade of blue.
The magical power was slightly more than the previous spells, but the mass of Aqua was a bit smaller.
In other words, by using oral magic with two dark attributes in addition to the three water attributes for Aqua, the water attribute was weakened.
I tried using oral magic of other attributes on Aqua, but overall, the power decreased.
I also attempted combining water attributes with other attributes, and the power still decreased.
I tried other attribute magics, but the results were the same.
Conclusion.
Oral magic attributes only show a positive response to closely related attribute magics as expected.
Combining multiple magics diminishes their power.
Here, I pondered for a moment.
Why do different magical colors combine?
Of course, one could simply avoid using different magical colors, but there’s a sense of discomfort in the characteristics of magical power.
Biological evolution, natural phenomena, all events, science, and chemistry.
They all have a cause and effect, and there’s always a process in between.
In other words, there should be a reason for different magical colors to deliberately combine.
It might be entirely meaningless to me, but it’s worth investigating.
“… No, wait.”
Combination… in other words, a phenomenon similar to synthesis.
Is there a connection to synthesis magic?
Currently, I can perform three types of synthesis magic using different attributes.
Flare Blow, a synthesis of Blow and Flare.
Aqua Bolt, a synthesis of Bolt and Aqua.
Aqua Breeze, a synthesis of Aqua and Blow.
What would happen if I combined these with oral magic?
By the way, Flare Storm is like an enhanced version of Flare Blow, so I’ll omit that.
“Well, let’s try it.”
I prepared to create Blow in my right hand and Flare in my left hand without incantation.
And at the same time, I chanted a spell.
“Mighty wind and raging flame, burn fiercely!”
The spell produced two green wind attributes and two red flame attributes.
In an instant, it turned into yellow magic.
As oral magic and the magic in my palms combined, I released Flare and Blow simultaneously.
The two combined into a fiery wind, released in front of me.
A roaring sound.
The fiery wind rose into the sky, scorching the atmosphere.
A synthetic magic of only about 100 magical power.
It turned into magic close to 1000 magical power, on the level of Flare Storm.
The fiery wind continued for a while and then disappeared in an instant.
I was left dumbfounded, my mouth hanging open.
I blinked repeatedly, desperately trying to grasp the current situation.
Finally regaining my composure, I set my mind in motion.
“That, just now… In other words, using, uh, synthesis magic with the same attribute magic can, uh, further increase its power?”
It seems that using multiple attributes has a synergistic effect with oral magic, much more significant than with a single attribute.
Maybe double, or no, even triple or quadruple?
This is immeasurable magical power.
Moreover, the amount of magical power used is extremely low.
In other words…
“The concept of magical power and magic… has changed.”
Magical power and magic within me are evolving rapidly.
Even though I was the one who developed it, the rapid succession of new discoveries gave me the illusion of going far beyond.
Magic is amazing!
Possibilities are expanding one after another!
“Okay, calm down. I need to summarize today’s findings!”
I hurriedly returned to my room and recorded the research results in a book.
Spells lose power with words alone.
The power of spells varies with differences in particles and words.
And, by combining oral magic with multiple attributes, the power of the synthesis magic of the same attribute can swell up to ten times.
In the future, let’s name this magic as “Fusion Magic.”
I hummed a tune while my pen flowed smoothly.
Magic will continue to evolve more and more.
Surely, there are possibilities that even I can’t imagine right now.
With that thought, the excitement couldn’t be contained.
