a master of many forms
of magic, your instructor has sent you on a task to do just that.
To fulfill this quest, you must reach level 30 with three
different fields of magic, and reach Master level with at least 10
spells in each.
Difficulty: B+
Reward: Large Fame bonus, prestige with Mages’
College.
My smile grew anew as the
quest appeared. A long term quest… and
one with a high difficulty.
“ I understand, sir.
I’ll do my best. I do not know what hardships may await me, but
I am grateful for your teachings.” I bowed my head to him and
went up to the library. The minimum level I’d
need to be to finish this quest is 103. But it’s unrealistic to
believe that I won’t level Talent and Knowledge as well. So,
most likely I’ll be over 150 by the time I finish this. Does a
game like this even have a level cap? Well, first thing’s
first, what type of magic do I want to use for my second school?
I went along the shelves,
freely browsing as I scanned all the different titles, or at least
the ones that could still be read. Maybe I
should get Denise’s opinion? I smiled
at that immediately, and nodded to myself. That did give me an idea,
though. A spell of communication. There might be a whisper system
built into the game, or there might not. I haven’t positively
identified another player yet to check. Either way, a communication
spell would let me speak to the NPCs I’ve become friends with.
Opening the Spell Creation
window, I began thinking about what runes I should use. It’s
difficult to decide, because runes are practically their own
language. You could put in speak, speech, message, communicate, send,
whisper, or any number of runes to describe sending a message.
In the end, I opted for
the Speak and Friend runes.
Message has been added to your Spell List.
“ Message.” I
attempted to cast the spell, focusing on Denise.
Target is out of range. Spell failed.
Shaking my head, I
grumbled, opening my spell window to get the chant. “Wings of
Light, signs of beginning, may my voice reach the farthest corner.
Message.” I heard the briefest ring and saw a faint light
around me for a moment.
“ Hello?” I
spoke to the empty library.
“ Huh?! What-Jin, is
that you?” I heard a startled female voice on the other end,
followed by a short squeak.
“ Sorry, bad time?”
“ Oh, not at all!
But, how are you.. oh right, magic. Guess your lesson today went
well.”
“ I’ll be sore
for a week. But I had a question for you, if you’ve got a
minute?”
“ Of course! Sorry
guys, I’ll be back in a bit!” I could hear her calling
out to someone, and then walking a short distance. “Sorry, you
got me during a run. So, what’d you need?”
“ Well, you remember
how you asked me to help you decide on a path to take for when we go
adventuring?”
“ Well, yeah! That’s
the reason I’m out here running laps around the city!” I
could just hear the laugh at the end of that.
“ Your turn. My path
as a mage requires me to pick multiple types of magic. So far, I’ve
started to learn earth, but my teacher told me to learn another one.
I wanted to hear your opinion before I made a decision.”
There was a pause, and I
heard her stutter for a second before she got her voice under
control.
“ Y-you really want
to know my thoughts on it?”
“ Of course. Out of
everyone I’ve met since coming here, I value your opinion
most.”
“ W-well.. If I’m
shooting my bow, and you’re casting… maybe something to
keep the monsters from getting to us? Like… oh! Maybe you can
learn how to summon?”
I nodded silently,
momentarily forgetting that she couldn’t see, and she must have
taken my silence as hesitation. “Or, you know! Something else
would work too..”
“ No, sorry, no. That
was a really good idea. Still getting used to this spell. Forgot you
couldn’t see me nod.” That got a laugh out of her, and I
watched as my mana crept down to the halfway point.
