Chapter 79: 078 “I’m just a loser bragging. Normally, a mage wishing to use magic had to go through two steps. One, they had to adjust their state of mind, concentrate their spirit and attention, and according to the type of magic about to be used, convert their own nature and form of magic power to intervene with the related “Reason”. This step required the acquisition of the “Meditation” Skill. The higher the Skill Level, the faster, more proficient, and more efficient the completion of this step would be. Two, after intervening with the related “Reason”, by chanting a specific magic spell, magic power underwent a second change, driving the change in “Reason” to construct a supernatural phenomenon and realize miracles. This step required the acquisition of the “Chanting” Skill. The higher the Skill Level, the faster, more proficient, and more efficient the completion, too. If Skill Level were high enough, it would even be possible to shorten the chanting content or even dispense with chanting, directly completing the change so that the magic would take shape. These two mandatory steps meant that any mage must acquire both the “Meditation” and “Chanting” Skills; otherwise, even if they had learned Magic Skills, magic would be unusable. ... Before that, had not Vivian mentioned that Merica, as a mage, had not only upgraded her Skills in “Magic·Fire” and “Magic·Ice” but also the essential mage skills “Meditation” and “Chanting”? Therefore, any mage must learn the “Meditation” and “Chanting” Skills, and the higher the Skill Level, the better. Otherwise, no matter how high the level of Magic Skills, the speed of using magic would be surprisingly slow, with even a greater risk of failure. “Could it be that Lady’s Unique Skill replaces the function of these two Skills?” Shane wondered about Laischa’s situation. That Lady did not need to chant at all to use magic; she didn’t even have to recite the name of the spell. With a mere gesture, she could wield magic at will, including Upper-Level Space Magic. In her hands, all magic seemed like a superpower that could be instantly activated—outrageously unfair. She claimed it was the effect of her Unique Skill, and that Unique Skill very likely allowed her to skip the steps of Meditation and Chanting, directly intervening with the “Reason,” causing it to change and thereby directly shaping magic. This meant that Laischa was very likely unlike ordinary mages, who typically possessed the Skills “Meditation” and “Chanting.” “No wonder she can use such powerful Gravity Magic, and it seems she can also cast magic from other systems.” If there’s no need to enhance the “Meditation” and “Chanting” Skills, then the saved Skill Points could be completely spent on learning other types of magic, right? Adding the advantage of instant casting spells, Laischa would certainly not overlook this benefit and would definitely strive to learn a multitude of spells, to drastically improve a mage’s capabilities. The kind of advantage Laischa held over other mages was quite obvious. “Indeed, Unique Skills are the most important. Once their effects are extraordinary, they can completely overturn the difference brought by levels and skills.” While not quite at Shane’s level, Laischa was certainly capable of taking on challenges above her rank. Therefore, Shane told himself to be patient, and within a year, he had to keep trying, not to be swayed by the distracting thought that he, as an Otherworldly Person, might not possess the ability to use magic. As the saying goes, sharpening your axe will not delay your work of cutting wood; as long as he put in the effort, even if he wasn’t from this world, there would come a day when he could... “Obtain Skill—[Meditation]—Learn?” At this very moment, such a message appeared in Shane’s mind. “...” The Shane who had just resolved to put in effort twitched his face and opened his eyes with a strange expression. After a moment of silence, Shane picked up the book “Magic Basic Studies” again. “Repeatedly practice the chanting of magic spells...” Following a few magic spells recorded in the book, Shane began to practice chanting. “Obtain Skill—[Chanting]—Learn?” Very quickly, or rather, in less than a few seconds, a new message appeared in Shane’s mind. “...” Shane fell silent. At this moment, Shane felt that his earlier self was like an idiot. Otherworldly People? Worry about what! “Almost forgot, I’m a freaking cheat...” Conclusion: Shane was capable of learning magic. And probably, no one could be more talented as a mage than him, an Otherworldly Person.
