I really just want to hang out in the magic world.

"Okay, let's get started! Don't be too nervous, I'm right here."

"Let it burn!"

"The fire is shining..."

"Burning fiercely..."

"Scorching heat..."

The students concentrated their minds and tried hard to picture the image of "fire".

Some clever students even put their hands close to the candles or stared into the flickering flames.

When you focus, the target object in front of you can greatly enhance its image in your mind.

Through the magician's unique mental power, the image of flame is outlined, and through strong will and magic power, magic is cast!

Ruan Xiaozhe also concentrated his attention and planned to learn fire magic with a normal mind, instead of being casual like before.

"Etc., etc."

"?"

Professor Garcia stopped Ruan Xiaozhe.

"Ruan Xiaozhe, you don't need to practice fire magic."

"???"

Ruan Xiaozhe was a little confused. Only then did he notice that there was no candle in front of him, but a copper basin full of water.

"why?"

"Too dangerous."

"..."

Ruan Xiaozhe understood instantly.

While practicing light-generating magic, he lost control several times, causing the light to explode.

An explosion of light is fine, it’s just dazzling, but what if an explosion of fire?

"Well, a lot of people are going to get hurt," Professor Garcia explained.

Ruan Xiaozhe nodded in understanding; this reason was irrefutable.

"It would be better to practice fire magic once you have a more refined control over your magic power and perception of the elements."

"understood."

"Before that, you should practice water-generating magic. Even if you fail, it won't be too dangerous."

Water is also one of the basic elements. Although the images of metal or lightning are more difficult to outline, almost everyone can imagine the image of water.

Water is easy and familiar, and unlike fire, there is no danger of failure.

but……

"Water is a bit subtle." Ruan Xiaozhe scratched his head.

One downside to water magic - it's not cool.

“While it’s certainly not cool, the main purpose is a bit subtle.”

Just as Ruan Xiaozhe thought, the use of water element magic is really useless.

Attack? Fire or lightning is better.

Defense? Earth or Metal is better.

The only advantage might be that you can make drinking water while traveling...

“What a useless advantage.”

As an imperial magician, Ruan Xiaozhe's goal is to find an easy and high-paying job, and this survival skill is really not attractive.

But he could do nothing about it, because practicing fire magic might cause a fire.

"Wow, awesome!"

"Vodanaz, you are so lucky that the professor actually gave you special guidance."

Asan, who was practicing nearby, said enviously.

Ruan Xiaozhe just thought this was nonsense.

"What kind of special instruction is this?"

Ruan Xiaozhe also wanted to learn fire magic like everyone else. He really didn't want to practice this useless water element magic.

"Emerge!"

"Emerge!"

Ruan Xiaozhe chanted spells one after another.

Wow!

When he tried a third time, a mass of water appeared in the air.

"!?"

Not water drops, but fist-sized balls of water!

Ruan Xiaozhe was surprised, and Professor Garcia was also shocked.

Although Ruan Xiaozhe had successfully performed the light generation magic, he was able to perform the water generation magic in just three times, which was unusually fast!

What's more, he can actually generate fist-sized water balls, which shows that he is highly compatible with the water element!

"very impressive!"

"Everyone, look here! Ruan Xiaozhe successfully performed water element magic!"

"Wow……"

"awesome!"

"It's Vodanatz indeed!"

The students of the Azure Dragon Tower watched with excitement, while the students of the White Tiger Tower frowned with envy.

Professor Garcia applauded and said, "Ruan Xiaozhe performed very well. We should all learn from him."

"But don't be too impatient. Everyone has an element that suits them. Once you find that element, you'll quickly get the hang of it."

"For example, students who grew up in a volcanic area or a blacksmith shop are suitable for the fire element, students who grew up by a river or the sea are suitable for the water element, and students who grew up in a place filled with wind and sand are suitable for the wind element... It is easier to master familiar elements!"

Ruan Xiaozhe was puzzled after hearing this: "I didn't grow up by the river or the sea?"

The only intersection between his life and water was probably when he hit a wall with Professor Garcia.

Maybe it's because his nature is in tune with the water element?

This isn't a bad thing, but it does feel like...

"It would be even better if it could be compatible with rare elements like lightning or ice."

This feeling is subtle and although it has advantages, it is not attractive enough.

Suddenly, he felt a pair of eyes secretly looking at him. Ruan Xiaozhe turned his head and found that the princess hurriedly turned her head away. It was obvious that the other party had been staring at him.

"?"

As soon as his thoughts were distracted, the water ball hanging in the air lost its shape and splashed onto the ground.

Professor Garcia nodded and said, "Ruan Xiaozhe, your next task is to generate water and then maintain and fix it."

"Understood, Professor."

Now that you've got the hang of creating water, maintaining its form is relatively simple.

Ruan Xiaozhe responded casually, then suddenly thought of a question and asked, "Professor, how long does it take?"

"Oh, don't worry, wait until your magic runs out... No, wait."

Usually a novice magician will run out of magic power first, but Ruan Xiaozhe in front of him is completely different. He has a huge reserve of magic power.

Professor Garcia nodded and replied happily, "Keep it up until the end of get out of class!"

"...???"

Ruan Xiaozhe doubted his ears.

Uh……

Isn't this corporal punishment?
