We got a bit off track. Back to the skills. And most importantly to the skill I wanted for a while. "Zwi, please tell me about the magic power control skill."

"Skill Magic Power Control. Always active. Allows you to freely control Mana and put more Mana into your spells. This skill also enables you to control the magic power of a different person when you touch them and they allow it."

Pretty straight forward right? But this is what will allow me to use magic! Magic! I read so much about it and in my old life people talked all about it in legends and fantasy. But now I get the chance to actually do it. And most importantly with the help of all those before me. Study it! "Zwi we're going to have a lot of fun with this skill." Silence was his answer.

"Well never mind that we still have some in the list so give me the details." "Skill adaptive potential. Always active. This is a item skill. It allows you to adapt to your user and unlock their full potential." Again pretty straight forward. Also not useful to me right now. But good to know. "Next one I wanna finish this."

"Skill locked knowledge. Always active. This skill is unique to you so it can't be stolen or deactivated. This skill disables you to make use of the knowledge in your pages. The only ones you can use are the beginner ones. This skill levels up as you do. Currently this skill is lvl1 so you can use beginner level magic and all the knowledge in the pages along with the level." What?! Aww, come on! And here I was so excited. Well I guess I can't start with all the knowledge. "Say zwi do you know why I have this skill?" Zwi was silent for a few seconds. "No relevant data found."

I also see that he has skills of his own. Or at least that's what it looks like to me. "Say zwi what does your ego skill. Do? Is it like Zwilling?" "Correct." Have I mentioned that I love my new voice? I sound so friendly. Like a teacher. Also zwi seems to have the same skills as me apart from perfect fighter and guardian form. I guess perfect fighter is a close combat skill. Well not like we have hands to fight but this guardian form intrigues me. I can't really imagine what it does. "Zwi? What is guardian form?" "This skill is locked. Please initiate a soul synchronisation and achieve 90% synchronisation to use this skill."

Locked? Soul synchronisation? "What do you mean with that?" I ask but I can already feel that this is nothing good. "During the creation process and integrating of a soul into the Magnum opus Eternia the soul that gets integrated and the soul already in the body will synchronise and become one. But due to an error in the integration and a too strong ego the soul would not synchronise. To combat this the Zwilling skill was created. But to use the full potential the souls will have to be synchronised and both egos purged. The synchronisation is at 56% at this moment. Would you like to start the synchronisation process now manually?"

That will be the biggest NO I have ever given. Purging my ego? No way. Guess we won't be using that. But at least I now know what I can do, so let's do some magic! I ease myself into the knowledge in the pages. I absorb the magic spells and learn the way their casted. I see I see. There is a page for learning beginners. Good then let's do the first step. Finding out what color my magic is.

Let me explain my dear listeners! " Warning! Delusional talking to one self can lead to further soul desynchronization." ....is zwi dissing me? That's cold. Ahem, let's get back to my explanation. So everyone can use magic. But the color of your magic power decides how effective you can use certain spells. Here is a simple explanation: Red=Fire, Blue=Water, Green=Wind, Orange=Earth, Black=Darkness and White= All types. And from these colors and they're saturation as well as their mix one can find out for which elements they have a talent for. I concentrate and create a small rectangular sheet of magic in front of me.

It's a strong pink. That means I have a talent for all types of magic but especially fire magic. This is a good color. I can already see me floating around and setting fire to my enemy's. .....maybe I'm more dangerous than I thought. But let's see for a basic fire spell to cast. I concentrate again and a small flame appears in front of me. A basic spell. It floats a few centimeters in front of me. Let's try some experimentation. I put more Mana in and it it becomes bigger and brighter. Nice this works.

My mana also doesn't really budge while I do this. I probably have a high rate of regeneration. I keep experimenting with size and shape after that. It takes me a few hours but I get the shape and color I wanted. In front of me is 10 centimeter big blue lotus of flame. It took me 100 points of mana to make it. It's really beautiful if I'm allowed to praise myself like that. Let's make it bigger! So I put 1000 points of mana into it. And watch it grow. Ah wait I'm underground aren't I? And then everything exploded.
