VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

Spells were simply simple or complexly weaved Mana instructions.

To cast a spell, there were believed to be three main methods that the mages of today use.

The first method was simply the vocal incantations: Chanting of a certain set of incantations that produces the same kind of string combinations that a traditional spell does.

There were many mages who solely relied on spell chanting. They were not commonly seen but unlike the conventional games, the [< Magic chanters >] of <NO> were wise men who had learned the truth hidden behind those incantations and understood them on a deeper level.

They were rare, and they were wise.

The other method was what most of the people, and players used– the method that solely relied on the imagination of the individuals.

A spell, at the end of the day, was a manifestation of one's will.

It was pretty easy for someone possessing an open Mana circuit to cast a spell through their will alone.

Players especially could cast at least the basic spells when they learn to wield and feel the Mana around them by converting the Mana in the environment and channeling it through their body.

Elio also used this kind of spell casting at first as well. He was good with his imagination, however, along the way, he changed his way into something of his own.

The third kind of spell casting method was the Individual method. Something only those individuals could do thanks to their unique abilities.

Unlike incantations and the general spell casting method, this method was difficult to teach to someone else since the base of this kind of spell casting was something that was unique to that person alone.

"Kiiiii!"

Elio had a unique way of looking at things and a unique way to perceive the world around him.

He also remembered all things in a different way than most people.

His memory was not that good, so he attached a lot of important moments to his life with a certain kind of emotion.

He could see the kind of details that not everyone could, especially when it came to things that were unique to someone, a characteristic that was not common, it instantly caught his attention.

He clicked a photo of something inside of his head to remember it, and then stored it inside an album that was present in a house that existed inside his head.

It was natural for him to be consciously aware of everything that was present inside this specific house, so all the things that were present there were readily available for him.

But, putting things there required the 'emotions' that were attached to those certain things.

"See. I knew you could do it~."

To cast his spells, he recalled the stored images of the spells that he had learned from a unique album that he had created not long ago.

"Well… it takes too much Mana to cast. I don't think we can use this more than three times. Four tops if you add the effects of the items."

He was able to break down and store the spell that was of a higher level, something he knew he could not cast at his current level.

He could call out anything that was already stored inside an album so after storing the broken versions of the spells that Alex gave him, he followed her instructions and placed the spells upon one another.

Just as she knew, the spells that were like a part of the big puzzle were gathered and got attached to one another when they were around one another and ultimately combined together through the [Spell fusion] process and became a new spell altogether.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Haha, you know, the technique you just used isn't something even the Magic academy graduates from the empire are capable of."

There were many other techniques that the professional Mages used to enhance their spell casting. Common casting methods that integrated incantations with their own spell casting methods was one of them.

[Spell fusion] was mainly used to fuse together two spell circles that were of similar wavelength.

Not all mages could cast a fusion spell, specially those who could not cast the spells in the fusion process perfectly could never perfectly fuse a spell.

"Hmm… it wasn't that difficult."

The reason was able to fuse together those broken spells was thanks to the spells that she had created for him and his unique way of recreating the entirety of the spell.

"Don't say that before the other mages, lol. Those from the magic academy would burn you alive if you say Spell fusion is easy."

His unique spell casting method made it possible for him to bypass the entire spell manifestation process.

He was able to directly create the spell circles that he wanted with a big chunk of Mana input.

It sometimes took a lot of Mana, but if the spell was something he was already familiar with, the Mana consumption decreased by a lot.

"Don't exaggerate it. I know those magic academy kids. They are not that bad."

If someone who did not understand enough saw him casting multiple spells at once, they would think he was [Multicasting] four to five together.

It was nearly impossible for most of the mages to cast more than one spell even if they dedicated their entire life to their magic.

Those who could cast two different spells at once were called geniuses, those who could perform Tri-casting were called prodigies. And those who could cast more than four different kinds of spells at once were chosen directly by the Archmages to be their students.

"Besides…"

"We should move now. Staying here isn't good anymore."

With his unique method which was not Multicasting but more like 'spell summoning' according to what he understood it as, he was able to cast a higher level spell that enhanced the Elm creature's fire weakness and increased the damage that they received.

It was a wide area spell so it targets all of them in a certain area.

"Yeah, let's go gather a bigger crowd this time~."

It proved to be very effective. Much more than even what she had expected when she created this spell…

She did not know if it was so powerful because an amazing person like her made it, or because an amazing person like her darling cast it.

But whatever the reason might be, they confirmed the spell worked much better than she had anticipated.

And that simply meant the time and efforts that they would have to put into their hunting was going to be descred a little.

"Kehe–hehehehe."

The evil in her deep blue eyes gave omen of a massacre.

An event he had foreseen long ago…
