Physics The Greatest Magic

"Why do you both look so surprised?" Eleanor asked.

John looked towards Ariel, and she was also surprised. Who wouldn't be surprised when they were told that they were in a completely different continent from their previous one?

'But why Asteria... Wait... He said he wanted me to get stronger, will I find some sort of trainer or something to boost my abilities here? It's the magic continent, but I thought only a few people are able to use magic…' John thought.

"How many people in the continent can use magic?" He asked.

Eleanor didn't seem surprised by the sudden questions and just answered naturally.

"Everyone can use magic here, those born in this continent are born with magic, whether it is commoners or nobles, this is a sacred continent after all."

"Sacred..?" John asked.

"Well, that's what dad calls it. Apparently the land gives blessings to those who are born here and they receive the ability to use magic, which it will be rare to encounter anyone who can't use it." Eleanor explained.

"I was told only a small percentage of the people in the world can use magic..." John replied.

"Excluding this continent," She responded.

'So if everyone here is born with powers, why don't they just start bringing more people over here from other continents?' John wondered.

"I have three last questions," He said.

"Of course, feel free to ask them" She said with a happy expression.

"Can anyone leave and enter the continent? How big is the population and since most people can use magic, does that mean they can become mages?" John asked.

'Come on... What will it be' John wondered.

"Well... Those who aren't from here aren't allowed in without a permit or unless they are a high-ranking adventurer, or at least that's what I remember, the population... I'm not sure, and yes everyone can become mages but not everyone receives the right education," Eleanor explained.

'So they aren't only born with magic but they're born with enough to become mages... Why is this continent only like this...? But I don't want to ask too many questions, besides she might not know either.' John concluded.

"But if you're talented enough, even a commoner can get accepted into the magic academy," Said Eleanor.

'Magic academy?' He wondered.

"Ah, the magic academy is a school where they teach kids or adults proper chants and spells, it's divided by ranking and the highest rank students in the school can even be taught king class spells. They become really strong magicians after," Said Eleanor after she noticed his confused expression.

Maybe this is why John was sent to this continent.

'He wants me to attend school? But I've never done chants before and I don't know how, if I show the school that I can use chantless I might get questioned as such.'

'But if they have an education here, why weren't they able to grasp the concept of each element..? Maybe there are some who have but never made it public... I don't know, but I think I should go to this school' John concluded.

"Is there an academy where we're going? And how do you become a student," John asked.

"There is, the place we're going to right now is the main city or capital of the kingdom of Xoleria, It's also where the most renowned school is." Eleanor explained.

'Is it a coincidence that we were teleported close to this academy? Maybe we were teleported to the forest so that we wouldn't be detected, we're not from this continent after all... They might try to kick us out if they found out.' John thought.

"There are two ways to become a student, Pass the entrance exam or be scouted." Eleanor spoke.

'I see... Well, I guess we'll check it out. King class magic... What is that?' John thought.

"Hm... That might be where we go next, what is kings class magic?" He questioned.

"Eh? You were able to defeat the one who was trying to assassinate us, but you don't know what king class magic is?" She asked with a shocked expression.

"Nope..." I said with a nervous smile.

John looked at Ariel, and she shook her head. She didn't know either.

"O-Okay... I'm not sure if you knew this, but spells come in ranks and classes." Eleanor spoke.

John considered it, but she was the first to actually confirm it.

"At the bottom, there's elementary magic, it's not really that good for combat, but it's good to practice and get the hang of it. After that we have intermediate magic, Suited for combat but not that strong, there are many different kinds and the chant is short, so it's mainly used in close or quick fights." She explained.

'I'm being given a pretty specific tutorial, how old is she even?' John wondered.

"After these two are, Advanced, Saint-Class, Kings Class, Emperors class and lastly God class. The higher the class, the longer the chant, but there are ways to shorten them." She added.

"How do you shorten them?" John asked.

"The most common way is to use it enough times." Eleanor answered.

John wondered how much is enough and which ranks his spells would be.

'I'm thinking of too many things at once!' John realised.

"Okay, what about forb-"

'... What was that..? I was about to ask her where forbidden lost magic that I apparently used would be ranked at, but a chill went down my spine. Is this her way of telling me not to talk about it?' John realised.

"Forb? Forb what?" Eleanor asked.

"Forb, did I say that? I meant before as in, there are requirements to use high-level class spells like kings class, right?" John asked.

"Unfortunately so... There are two ways to learn spells, 1 is through a scroll of wisdom, you can only use them once and all the information of the spell is pushed into your brain. The other is by being taught by someone who has learnt it, but that one takes a lot more time. And even when you're taught it, you might not have enough magic to cast it." Eleanor explained.

'So there is a power balance... Okay…' John understood.

"Thank you Eleanor, Sorry i asked you so many questions."

"It's fine, I'm glad I was able to help. You saved mine and Alfred's life, after all, if you need anything else, don't be afraid to ask." Eleanor said with a happy and proud expression.

'Man... I wonder what school will be like.'

As John thought that he went back to Serena's side.

Ariel looked like she wanted to say something but kept it to herself.

'Maybe I should ask her about it later... It might have something to do with the academy. For now I'm not sure whether I should join or not, but it would be a good learning experience..' John thought.
