12 finally magic! (2/2)

”excellent! I see you weren't lying when you said that you had an excellent talent in both the control of magical energy and magic itself.”

”thank you master, and yes I imagine that without the boost to my talent and control it would have taken me much more effort to even create a spark,” I said as I let the shield drop, it took a little concentration to make and keep up but hopefully I would soon be able to make it reflexively.

”ok, now go rest tomorrow we learn about the sling ring.”

~

”there are multiple ways to travel through the use of magic, but the sling ring is one of the easiest. the sling ring allows a master of the mystic arts to travel anywhere in the universe and with much effort even the multiverse. now here is your sling ring, I want you to open a portal, anywhere is fine.”

I put the sling ring on my left hand and then while holding it out I started to move my right hand in circles while thinking of my room in my grandparent's, as I did this sparks started to form and then slowly a small expanding circle until it was big enough for a person to walk through.

”very good, you got it on your first try, I was afraid that I would have to leave you on top of a mountain in the Andies.”

”thanks, that was harder than I thought, that explains why most don't use this in the middle of battle, by the way, can the sling ring be modified or does it have to be a two finger ring?”

”it can be modified, all that is required is the magic matrix to be imprinted onto the object and for the object to be on the user's hand, why?”

”I was just thinking about adding it to my suit and didn't want to always have two of my fingers held together.”

”ah! I can see how that would be a problem. anyway, from now on, we are going to focus more on drawing dimensional energies, battle magic, rituals and enchanting.”

I couldn't help but feel excited about the weeks to come!
