Link knew that the first step to learning lory and ic was a network of complex theories and formations

Many people with extraordinaryto learn the mundane basic theories Link was busy and would not have much time to tutor Rylai Most of the tiic by herself Hence, Link would have to evoke her interest to facilitate her self-study

”Yes” Rylai nodded Her eyes shone as she held the ic scroll in her hand She was extre the scroll

”Now, clear your hts and focus on this rune” Link was patiently guiding Rylai along

After ten seconds, the rune gloith a bright light which flowed to illuic scroll A ball of light then slowly rose up from the scroll

”You can control it, aht?” Link softly asked

”Yes” Rylai was intrigued She felt that her spirit was connected tightly to this ball of light If she willed it to go to the left, it would slowly float towards the left side It was a

She disregarded Link's gaze and was fully absorbed into the o further and further away When the ball of light reached a distance of 45 feet, the connection she had felt previously suddenly disappeared

The ball of light quivered before disintegrating into the air

This was not out of Rylai's expectations However, she was still du to process what had just happened

Link did not disrupt her thoughts and sloaited till Rylai was done reic ”That was the Illu isn't it?”

”Yes,” Rylai cheerfully agreed That was a mysterious experience

”However, that spell was not cast by you, but by the assistance of the ician can cast even more powerful spells without the help of any object”

”I understand,” Rylai nodded After Link's stunning display of ic, her fear had turned into curiosity and deter this poould allow her to change her fate

Link was satisfied when he saw the determination in Rylai's eyes

He was certain that if Rylai continued to hold this passion for icians in ten years' time

All he needed to do was guide her along the way and provide her with opportunities to practice ic
