Chapter 183: Fusion magic II

"Last semester we focused a lot on arcane magic, this semester we will be focusing on fusion magic."

"If you hear fusion magic and think about the fusion process, then you are correct." Professor Gibson said. "The Fusion process fuses your elemental stars into one, while fusion magic is the process of using both elements at the same time to cast spells."

His words confused a lot of the students because wasn't this what they had been doing since the awakening test?

"I know what you are thinking, but being able to double or triple cast doesn't mean you can use fusion magic." He immediately dispelled the confusion in their minds.

"Double casting is the ability to simultaneously cast different spells as separate entities, but fusion magic is casting spells of different elements as one entity." Gibson explained.

"Professor Gibson, can you please give us a demonstration?" Blake asked.

Although he wanted to remind Gibson of his presence and to make him aware of his activeness, he was very interested in this topic.

"I would have loved to give you all a demonstration, but fusion magic is powerful and can't be used in such small spaces. So, by next week when our practical classes begin a demonstration will be possible." Professor Gibson said leaving the students disappointed.

"Now, for us to cast fusion spells we need to have the fundamentals of mana control at our fingertips, a few other things, and most importantly, Mana vision."

On hearing these words Blake couldn't help but smile, because he knew Its importance and was excited he would be taught, but the same couldn't be said for some of the students.

These were some of the students who had been having difficulties with the course and realizing that they needed past knowledge to keep moving on, which made them dejected.

"Since this is only an introductory class, I will only give an overview of Mana vision." Professor Gibson said as he paced around the room.

"Mana vision as the name implies is a way to visualize mana. Now, you might be asking isn't mana the blue ethereal energy we have been dealing with throughout the first semester?"

Well, you will be half right. As we all know, mana is the combination of the 9 elements in a stable state, forming the blue energy we all know.

What mana vision does is to let the eyes see the fundamental components of mana, hence enabling the caster to have a more refined control over it."

It was at this moment that the bell rang, signaling the end of the class.

Most of the students left the class for the canteen, but Blake remained on his seat thinking about the lesson.

'Why does the mana vision he is speaking of sound so different from yours?' Blake asked the system.

[Well, his is an overview of the real deal. Besides, this is a combined class so you don't expect him to go deep into the uses of a particular specialization.] The system said.

'It sounds easy and complicated at the same time. Well, the part being treated is quite easy compared to what I have seen.' Blake paused. 'Imagine cracking an array and everywhere is filled with pretty colors.'

"What's on your mind?" Camilla asked as she approached him.

"Just a random thought." Blake said, but from her expression, it was clear that she was all ears.

"I was just imagining how colorful the world would be when using mana vision." Blake said, but that was when he looked around and saw that his group was waiting for him.

"I was hoping that you would be thinking of a life-changing discovery, but daydreaming about a colorful world isn't that bad." Brian said.

"Sorry for making you guys wait, lets go grab something to eat." Blake apologized as the group headed for the canteen.

…

After their lunch, the group split up girls split up from the guys who headed to the forge.

"Let's hope Professor Tacitus has become less grumpy." Immediately the words left Luciano's mouths, the trio began frantically looking around just to make sure that he wasn't there.

They were lucky with Instructor Zirrack (or so they thought), but for Tacitus, it would be another story because he was known for his vengeful spirit.

"I would have loved to say welcome back and ask how your break went, but guess what? I don't care." Professor Tacitus said as he stepped out of a warp gate.

"Now this is an introductory class, so I won't be letting you guys waste much of my time." The professor said as he began looking around for defaulters.

'And I thought I had seen it all. I never knew his grumpy nature could go higher.' Blake thought.

"Last semester we treated the fundamentals of forgemastery which dealt with the methods and materials of forgemastery. This semester we will be focusing on the array part of forgemastery."

"Don't go mistaking it for your array mastery class. Your array mastery class was the basic of arrays that could be applied in every field of specialization." Professor Gibson said sending the class into utter confusion.

Seeing the confusion in their eyes made him shake his. "An example is the strengthening array. It could be used to strengthen one's sword in forgemastery, while it can be used to strengthen the test tubes and tools in Alchemy to withstand the chemical reactions."

"The only reason you thought that way was because the number of the non-forgemastery students were only a handful, but things will soon change." Professor Tacitus said with a smile.

'What is that meant to mean?' Blake asked the system.

[Array mastery is a very important specialization that made the school employ a genius like Mack Hoffenheim, but the problem here is that the students don't know the importance. So they will all be on their way back to the array mastery class or searching for a personal tutor.] The system explained.

"With that being said, the class is dismissed." Professor Tacitus happily left the class.
