83 Magic Incantation (2/2)

”Good morning, Mr. Maxwell. How are you today?”

”I am fine, Miss Richter. And I see that you are looking fine as well. Your brother and Mr. Mercer are having a little competition, to see who gains magical power first. Would you like to join?”

I ask. Hans shakes his head, telling his sister not to, believing it might be too dangerous for her.

But Emilia wouldn't have any of that. She is no longer a child, and she wishes her brother stops seeing her like one. She is now a young woman, so he should see her as such.

”I would love to, Mr. Maxwell.”

I nod and explain to her about the potions on the table. She picks up one and takes a sip, tasting the liquid. It is a bit sweet, but that is all. She drinks it all afterwards, but nothing changes.

”Maybe it doesn't work?”

Emilia asks.

”I assure you that it does work, Miss Richter. I have experienced the empowerment myself. However, I am unable to retain the magical power for an unexpected reason. I do wish to rectify this problem of mine as soon as possible.”

I response and duplicate more potions. For a sure chance, I need at least 300 potions for 3 people.

As Emilia drinks the second potions, an explosion rocks the base.

This cause the emergency system to activate, locking down several sections to stop the flooding. That isn't an ordinary explosion. It is powerful enough to punch through reinforced steel?

”Yes! Fuck Yes!”

Alex shouts and charges into the room excitedly. His body is completely drenched in seawater. Several Hydra members shout and scream in the hallway. The shouting and screaming eventually die down, either they have drowned or found a way to save themselves.

Honestly… this guy.

But the good news is that he seems to have been empowered by magical energy. While I couldn't feel any since it is so minute, I could see the energy radiating out of his body like faint steams.

”Excellent, Mr. Mercer. You try to cast that explosion spell the Nazis use, did you?”

Alex chuckles before shrugging.

I tap on the holographic deck to display the Heavenly Book Selene has compiled for me.

Since Alex can use magic now, it is time for him to study.

Studying is his forte, so it didn't take long for him to start forming magical incantation diagram. While he did that, I repair the damage area of the base and revive all the drowned members.

My decision to build a lunar base for Mystic is correct.

These magical stuffs are way too dangerous, especially under someone like Alex, who is quite reckless when something occupies his mind. I just hope I won't have to go fishing people in space because the lunar base has been blown up.

Emilia asks when Alex forms an incantation diagram. I narrow my eyes at the girl before looking at the security feeds. Just like she has said, Alex is gesturing nothing in the air.

”Fireball!”

Alex shouts before the magical incantation diagram before him explodes. Emilia screams while Hans jumps to attention. I exhale deeply since I know exactly what happened.

”Fuck! This is harder than I have thought!”

Alex curses as he grabs hold of his blood stump. His hand and arm have blown right off due to a failed spell.

”What just happen!?”

Hans shouts. It appears that he couldn't see magic either, at least until he becomes empowered with magical energy.

This is very interesting.

But how am I able to see it despite not having magic myself? Emilia confirms that you need to have magical energy flowing through your body to be able to see magic.

I guess I can always use magic, just that I have never tried before. A magical circle form in front of me when I follow the instruction in the book.

It seems that my assumption is correct.
