68 Magic System (2/2)

Even so, Sandra wants to look for one herself. And she wants me to accompany her, so I suppose I will have to make time for her.

Woman is so needy.

After lunch, I return to the company and check the progress on all my plans.

Most of my plans are on track. Some are on hold because of the emergence of the temporal rifts at an unexpected time.

I cannot do anything about that, but I can do something about the current state of the electronic and computing sector. My company needs a lot more computing power for postproductions of my movies and films.

Steve Jobs and Bill Gates and their respective companies are needed to be added into the loop.

They are currently trying to figure out ways to salvage their situations brought on by the unveiling of the LCD screen. Apple and Microsoft have long-term contracts with companies who are using obsolete display technology, and if they break the contract, they will have to pay millions.

In fact, a lot of computer and software companies.

It creates a nice situation where I can swoop in and save many of them, earning their graces. Well, not me personally since no one knows I am secretly controlling the entire market.

”Please request a meeting with Mr. Jobs and Mr. Gates as soon as possible, Cassandra.”

I tell the receptionist once I have make a timeslot for them. I will invite others to join them as well to give my word some weights. My appearance probably won't earn them any confidence.

”Yes sir, Mr. Maxwell. Will that be all?”

Cassandra answers.

”That will be all, for now. Thank you, Cassandra.”

I response and then hang up. I spend the rest of the day drafting up more screenplays with Sandra and Jennifer in mind.

They will need to star in their own movies.

I also feed Antigone and sing her to sleep.

When that is all done, I request Hydra to prepare an assault team for me as well as a black site. I have a bunch of kids to kidnap along with my mother.

It will be fun, but I will need to wait until early evening, when they are finally heading home from their school.

With a couple of hours still left on the clock, I decide to continue experimenting with my newest ability, summoning. I gain it after gaining a summon.

I have tried the summoning a few times when I first return to the prime universe. It to make sure that Terra didn't lie to me. For someone like her, I didn't think she would, but I still needed to make sure.

Summoning is as simple as calling a name and think about the summoned.

”Elune Whisperwind.”

I call out with her image in mind.

Summoning needs both a command and a mental thought.

A magical portal appears at my request, allowing Elune to pass through, leaving her world and entering mine.

She is wearing a very revealing attire akin to a bikini, covering her crotch and her breast only. A dagger holstered around her hips and bow around her shoulder and back as usual.

”Greeting, Master. How may I serve you?”

Elune greets me, kneeling. She calls me Master.

There is a certain charm to that.

Elune is a Hunter in her society.

She has been for the last thousand years, as soon as she reaches adulthood. She is not immortal, but she has extremely long lifespan. An elf of her world can live for tens if not hundred thousands of years, which is far longer than any human could possibly live.

I will dissect her to find out how she ticks eventually.

There are human on her world along with many other fantasy races. And like in so many fantasy books, the human is stuck in a medieval society.

I guess magic does supress science. When you can create fire with a word or a thought, do you really want to waste valuable time to investigate how fire exactly works?

I have learned quite a bit about her world, its geography and its inhabitants. It is not an alternate Earth unless Earth will have 2 moons in the distance past or far in the future.

”Tell me more about the magic of your world, Elune. And remember to think of me as someone who has never seen any form of magic before.”

Elune did as I have requested. As my servant in body, mind and soul, she is unable to refuse any of my request, even sexual one.

But I think I will leave that request for latter. I am more interested in gaining more knowledge. It feels like I am just opening my eyes to the wider world.

Everything I know barely scratches the surface of what is possible.

From what Elune tells me, there seems to be all kind of different magic system.

Humans uses different magic than the elf, who are more in line to nature.

And the magic that Terra has employed is completely different than the one that Elune is using.

That really makes me think.

What kind of magic system should I learn?

I can only learn one since they seems to be in direct conflict with each other. If I learn one that is not right for me, I have to discard it later on to learn a new one.

Since that is the case, I rather learn a proper one from the start.

However, I should learn one that come from the body or the soul. Aside from the fact I do not have a magic core or a magic pathways, I think soul is a better choice for if my body is destroyed.

The magic of the elf is useless to me since Elune is unable to use her magic as her form of magic drawls magical energy from the surroundings. This is similar to drawling magical energy from manastones.

It is more powerful since magical energy of the surrounding is literally unlimited, but if I am unable use it outside her reality, it is pointless.

Time flies when you are a very good attentive student.

”Would you like to see my world for yourself, Master? It also give you a chance to study the our magic in person. The elders will welcome you, who is favoured by the Goddess of the Moon.”

Elune asks once I have to stop the lesson.

She will continue her lectures when I have more free time.

”I can?”

I am surprised. What else is she hiding from me?

Not hiding purposely, but probably thinking to herself that it is unimportant or I already know.

I wish there is a way to simply download her brain and then I will have a look myself.

Oh wait! There is. It will be extremely painful though.

”Yes. I can reverse summon you, Master. You do not need to worry about unable to return back here to your world. I can send you back like you can dismiss me.”

Visiting a fantasy world?

Now that is interesting.
