All the heavens began with Huo Yi

“This is a seamless extension spell, not magic from the borderlands,” Suer said to Lani. This was the first time Suer had heard this aloof princess speak so much.

“No wonder, your defensive magic also comes from outside the border?” Lani asked.

“Yes, we also have a magic academy similar to Reyarukalia over there. Those with magical talent go there to learn magic after the age of eleven. The defensive spell is called the Ironclad Protection Charm,” Sull replied.

“Oh, that sounds very good,” Rataen said. “It seems your side is quite prosperous. I’d love to see what it’s like outside the border, but unfortunately, I have too many things to do.”

As Ratahn spoke, a look of longing appeared on his face. To him, seeing what a place without the Golden Tree was like was an interesting thing to do.

"Can I learn this magic?"

Lani asked, this was her most pressing question. A brand new magic system is always the most attractive to those who seek knowledge.

“I can try to teach you, Princess, but I’m not sure if you can learn it, because there’s nothing to make a wand, and casting spells with gestures would be extremely difficult.”

"A wand? Can't we use one from the borderlands?" As soon as Suer finished speaking, Rataen, who was standing next to him, raised a question. He had exceptional magical talent and had never used a wand while learning magic.

After thinking for a moment, Sue replied, "Um... a sapphire wand won't work. If I had the right materials, I might be able to try making one. But I'm not sure if I could succeed, since wand making is a branch of alchemy, and schools don't teach that subject. However, where I'm from, hand gestures can be used to cast spells instead of wands."

“What materials? I might try to find them,” Ratahn said, feeling that if it was worth a try, then so be it.

“Some trees, and dragon hearts, or other special creature body materials,” Sue said.

“That’s not a problem. Ordinary dragon hearts aren’t hard to get. I can help collect some,” Rataen said.

“Well then, I’ll leave it to you, big brother.” Lani said, glancing sideways at Ratahn. “I still have things to finish here, you guys go ahead and get busy.”

Although Lani didn't say much just now, she actually had a lot of questions to ask Suer, but her older brother always interrupted her just as she was about to speak... He's such a... idiot older brother.

“Alright, I’ll come see your sister again in a while.” Rataen could hear the eagerness in Lani’s words, so he didn’t linger and turned to leave.

Lani led Sul back into the mage tower, and Igi, who hadn't said a word, glanced at the two who had already gone upstairs, and began to strike the iron hammer with a faster pace than before.

“Wand… gestures…” Lani sat in her seat, looking at Suer. “A long time ago, the mages of the borderlands didn’t use wands. Excellent mages could cast spells directly, while those with poor aptitude could hold a radiant stone in their hand and cast spells.”

So, wands and gestures are unnecessary, right? These are probably just tools for mediocre people, aren't they?

"And I have an idea. The gesture you used when you released that so-called armor protection was the same as when you used the spell just now. You must be a genius from that world."

Sue nodded, admitting, "Indeed, wands and gestures aren't necessary. In fact, our magic is more like prayers in the borderlands than magic."

Upon hearing Suer's words, Lani raised her fiery red eyebrows and instantly understood what Suer meant: "Faith, no... ah, is it belief?"

"Yes, Princess, you are indeed exceptionally intelligent. Even in the schools around here, there are very few mages who are so aware of this."

Lani smiled and shook her head. "No need for flattery. The contrast between the two you presented is so stark that it's easy to guess whether you have stars where you are."

"Of course there are, but they are completely different from the star map of the border region, and the moon is not so close to the earth."

Where I'm from, stars can be used for divination, but they don't bring magical power.

Our world only has legendary mages; we've never seen gods. Perhaps those former gods are just legends left behind by powerful mages.

"Oh, that's a pity. If you have time, draw me a star map of your place. Also, let's have a contest. I want to see how good your magic is. After all, Blaze can't force you to use your full strength."

"Huh? Such an abrupt transition, is this some kind of border custom?" Su'er was stunned by Lani's words. By the time he realized what was happening, Lani had already activated her domain—Dark Moon Rising from the Sea!

"Holy crap, this domain has expanded!" Suer was shocked as the scene before him changed in an instant, even though he was just a moment ago in the mage tower.

"This is the path I have been pursuing, the path of the Dark Moon. Let me see your skills, my knight! I hope that in my future you can truly become my wings and lead me away from the descent of fate."

"Alright, I've offended the princess."

Suer no longer held back, after all, the person in front of him was not an ordinary person who could only hug. If she could be sensed as a threat by two fingers and was equipped with a shadow beast, then it could be basically confirmed that she had the potential to become a god, and that was indeed the case.

So Suer simply gave up using all the magic from the borderlands, since trying to teach someone a lesson would only make him a laughingstock.

With a weather spell, Sul instantly created a cloud that covered half of the dark night sky.

"Changing the weather, interesting magic."

Thunder rumbled from the dark clouds, and streaks of golden lightning began to form within them.

"Fortunately, this spell is actually used for rain and irrigation where we are. It should be classified as a life magic, but it is also very useful for offense."

Suer brought his fingers together, forming a sword-like shape, and as the golden lightning in the clouds rushed towards Lani, it transformed into golden falcons.

Before Lani was struck by the hawk, she summoned the phantom of a mountain demon, which blocked some of the lightning that had transformed into hawks. Then, the mountain demon disappeared, leaving a group of mindless lightning hawks with no choice but to rush towards the phantom of the mountain demon.

Upon seeing this, Sull immediately used the Disillusionment Spell. He guessed that Lani must have used a similar spell, since Miriam, who served Kalia, also knew this trick.

Furthermore, Lani must also possess magic similar to teleportation. To prevent being backstabbed, Sull used teleportation to change his position and simultaneously used a levitation spell to leave the ground.

What we're fighting now is an intelligence war. He knows most of the magic in the border area of ​​Sur and how to deal with it, but he's currently in a special domain created by Lani, while Lani is not very familiar with Sur's situation. However, Sur is in her home field, so she has a natural advantage.

"The true nature is immediately revealed"

After silently reciting the Manifestation Spell, Sull panicked and dodged. It turned out that Lani's figure had already appeared behind Sull. Feeling the thorns on his back, Sull could tell that Lani was using the Kalia Piercing Strike. If Sull had been two or three seconds slower, he would have been caught by the Eye of the Beholder.

Fortunately, Suer was not overconfident; his powerful mental strength ensured that he remained in the state of Death Eye, allowing him to react in time.

"That's a bit of a perverse sense of humor, Princess. Although the flesh on my buttocks is quite thick and it won't hurt much, your attack just now might have pierced through my physique." After dodging, Suer immediately Apparition to create distance and ensure her safety.

"You've broken my illusion magic. Not bad. It seems you're quite capable. Your school must be really good." Lani put away her wand and gave a sincere compliment.

“Of course, Hogwarts is the best magic school, that’s what Newt said, even though that kid isn’t born yet.” Sue agreed with Lani’s words. “By the way, how did you find me, Princess Lani?”

“In my magical realm, what do you think? I’m also very curious that you can fly, especially since it’s not gravity magic,” Lani answered Suer’s question.

As Lani spoke, she waved her wand and unleashed several legendary spells at Sul.

The magical beams of destructive meteors fell from the sky, filling the entire Dark Moon Realm, and the Starfall followed.

If Tops had developed earlier, Sull might have been able to handle his current situation much better.

However, Tops is still a student, and Sull definitely can't learn Tops' special skills right now, so he can only use the protective charm to tough it out.

"Do you really need any knight's protection?" Suer kept channeling magic to prevent the armor protection spell from being broken.
