C116
The first half of the magic school is over.
Although there were many talks and issues, the atmosphere was heartwarming at the end of the semester.
The teachers were also joking around with their students, waiting for the time to go home.
In a Swordsmanhsip Academy that mainly focuses on physical training, rest is taught to be as important as practice. However, this was not overlooked even at a magic school focused on cultivating the mind.
The mind was a function firmly attached to humans, even though it could not be seen. Even the most persistent students needed a break to cool their overheated brains.
However, since they should not let go of the tension, Alpheas Magic School requires students who have not held a presentation to write a thesis on a free topic.
Of course, this didn't apply to Shirone. Having received the highest score at the 'Invisible Things' presentation held at the Supernatural Psychic Science Reserach Group, he was able to enjoy his vacation in peace.
On the day of the holiday when the students were leaving one by one, Shirone found the completely empty Third Training Ground.
This place, which was noisy every day with the sound of cheers and the explosion of magic, was now filled with a quiet silence.
The 3rd Training Center was one of the largest among the training centers. A 1,600-meter track ran around the perimeter, and in an area divided into eight equal parts, there were devices for testing various magical effects.
Shirone entered the Mobility Magic training area. There are countless teleportation magics that a magician can use, such as Teleportation, Flight, Dark Port, and Air Walk. The best environment to practice all these magics was a desolate vacant lot.
Shirone looked back at her half-year achievements there.
'First of all, Mobility Magic.'
Shirone's main Mobility Magic was teleportation. From there, he has developed further, acquiring Rainbow Drop that allows curved movement, and Patrol that allows fast lateral movement.
Among the achievements, Photon Output was also indispensable.
At first, it was just magic to convey information, but after realizing the particles of God, it transformed into a powerful offensive magic called Photon Cannon.
Thanks to this, he was able to easily learn the Flash magic that maintain light for a long time.
Shirone was not satisfied there and continued to evolve. He developed a laser by mathematically reversing the photon cannon.
Although the single impact of the Photon Cannon would be high, the cumulative damage of the laser was close to infinite. It was a terrifying magic that could destroy any solid object, unless it was a material unaffected by the wave of the laser.
'Come to think of it, I must have worked pretty hard too.'
Shirone smiled happily. Above all, what he felt good about was the fact that his major in magic had jumped to the next level.
Shirone's current photonization theory had risen beyond the quasi-light speed to the area of sub-light speed. The reason Shirone visited the training ground was also to try casting Spatial Shift, which was said to be impossible unless he was a magician of sub-light speed. (현재 시로네의 광자화 이론은 준아광속을 넘어 아광속의 영역에 올라있었다.)
"I wonder what it feels like?"
It was a different dimension from teleportation. He had heard that he could clearly experience the uniqueness of light folding space-time from Spatial Shift.
When he expanded the spirit zone, he felt the surrounding scenery clearly through Synesthesia. Concentrating his consciousness on a single point, Shirone performed Photon Magic at sub-light speed.
The moment he combined omniscience and omnipotence and tilted his center, his body evaporated into light. A flash soared high into the sky, and then crashed to the ground in an instant.
Shirone, who arrived at the destination, exhaled with a pale face.
“Huuft! It- It’s working!”
His heart was beating fast at the sensation he was experiencing for the first time in his life. The landscape entering his eyes itself was different from Teleportation.
When casting Teleportation, he gets a feeling that the world is being crumpled and pushed in. But Spatial Shift felt like the world was folding and the sky and the earth were rotating.
'This is Spatial Shift. I'm out of my mind. I can't use it in battle like this.'
He heard that even Ethella, a certified 6th-rank wizard, used teleportation as her main weapon in her confrontation with Arcane. In the end, it was proof that Spatial Shift was not effective during combat.
The point where Spatial Shift really shines is not in battle but in moving situations.
If you're moving long distances, you run the risk of crashing into obstacle if you cast Teleportation. Therefore, no matter how wide the Spirit Zone is, most of them use an interval of within 10 meters as a standard.
But Spatial Shift can literally jump over space regardless of obstacle.
Of course, in order to have a visible effect, the radius of the Spirit Zone had to be incomparably wider than it is now.
The diameter of Shirone's current spirit zone is about 50 meters. It was a top-notch size among students, but it felt a little lacking to handle advanced magic such as Spatial Shift.
In the end, the magic level was too high compared to his Spirit Zone. Normally, magic follows the level of one’s Spirit Zone, but Shirone, an Unlocker, has overcome the theoretical barriers with his outstanding insight.
'The balance has become asymmetrical. Am I supposed to be happy at this?'
Of course, the growth of his Spirit Zone was not small either. The size may be similar to that of the beginning of admission, but the durability itself is different.
If asked to expand the zone to the level of six months ago, a diameter of 100 meters would not be a problem.
However, if he were to cast high-level magic in that state, the zone would break. Therefore, it was reasonable to still consider the radius of the zone to be 50 meters.
