92 Chapter 92 Compensating... (2/2)
”I was blessed by the G.o.d of all magic for it. I killed it by using PURIFY FOOD.” He paused as he realized this realm did not limit his human abilities. He had proved it by taking this form.
Near the center of the realm, there was a roar that he could hear. Roaring back at it, the entire world of flames moved and shook. He couldn't control it and understood that. He would never be able to control it. That was not his intent, and it knew that. But it acknowledged him now.

Turning to Selena, he quickly explained to her what she needed to tell his dad. He intended to stay here and learn as much as he could. This was something he couldn't do as a human and she understood. With a nod, she smiled.
”I look forward to seeing you in your real body young Joseph.”
”Tell both mom and dad I love them. I hope they are proud when they see everything I've accomplished.”
Selena faded away and he went to work.
Blinking, Joseph woke up a little groggy.
”Stella, how long was I out?”
”Almost 6 hours, Master Joseph.”
Hmm. The system showed 5 hours. He didn't think he spoke to Selena that long, so he must have lost time redoing his looks. It was worth it. He hated being short for his age.
Stephan looked at him worriedly. ”Master Joseph, are you alright?”
”A little drained is all. It wasn't a mage trance where I was invited. I went to that realm intentionally so it's more tiring. But if I can keep it up, I will learn Origin words the primal form of magic.”
Stephan swallowed. Joseph just laughed.
”I can teach you and Derek, someday, but Origin words cannot be spoken by humans. Our voice isn't deep enough. I have to learn other spells that allow me to do it.”
Stephan looked disappointed. ”Must it be so hard for us humans?”
”Stephan, other races may be born with a head start, but learning and advancing through our own efforts is what it means to be a mage. Those who are given the power without the struggles, will never advance like we will. They will never have to discover new ways and experiment. They will never think of magic in all the wonderful ways we will. Stephan, we will be masters through our own efforts, and so much stronger than others at our level of magic from our struggles. We will crush the arrogant who are simply blessed. I look forward to the day dragons bow before my might.”
With a smile he added, ”Or I could just be compensating because I'm short.”
