Finally done with my quirk hunt, I decided to proceed with the next thing on my must-do list, and that is to learn Magic. Indeed I have Skills that are superior form to their corresponding Magic, but they aren't as versatile as Magic is, not to mention in some verses some beings become Multiversal level of existence simply by mastering Magic and taking it to the pinnacle.

This path of power has a lot of potential and unlimited growth, there is no way I can leave it out now given the chance, and truth to be told, I had always imagined myself as becoming a powerful caster who can destroy universes with some spells. It was too far-fetched of a thought but well, that's just how it is and I am sure to reach that level one day.

However, it is better to leave such lofty goals aside for now and focus on small goals and the first one will be trying to learn magic. I technically do know magic as my elemental skills are evolved forms of Elemental Magic, however in the truest form they aren't magic but abilities equivalent to magic, in a superior way derived from the laws of the Tensura verse.

Thus, I am going to start with the basics, Currently, I am in a secluded area of a thick forest, and I have cleared a bit of area around me which makes it perfect for my practice. I also had asked Great Sage to hack satellites and prevent them from taking any footage of mine, at least the ones passing above me hundreds of kilometers above way beyond the Karman line.

Again, to achieve this I had to bring a pretty powerful laptop with me, that had unlimited cellular data a huge battery life, and so on. Now that I have no fear of getting dead by the overconsumption of my Magicules, I am all ready, and it's time to begin!

' Great Sage channel the magicules throughout my body ', I said to her,[Proceeding with the channeling of Magicules], replied and I felt a warm current running throughout all my body. It was strengthening me as a whole but again it was very different than my crude way of strengthening my body.

I started forming a mental image of water, a circular water ball, completely blue, and pure. I put my hand forward and channeled the coursing magicules through my slime body, outside my hand, and urged them to form a ball of water. It was no easy task learning the magic, but for me who had Great Sage and a Water manipulation ability, the failure was impossible.

Thus a huge ball of water manifested above my palm, and I opened my eyes looking at the gathering water with excitement, and then Urging it to compress, I decreased its volume and then sprayed forward like a jet of water. It pierced through several trees demolishing them, and crumbling them down to Earth.

I breathed heavily looking at the tens of trees that I had brought down with my attack. A laugh escaped my mind, as the realization dawned upon me what I had achieved. It was much simpler than anything else I had achieved till now. For a being who can literally twist space to my whim, this was something not worthy of celebrating but the joy of achieving it with my imagination and purely on my Magical energy.

[Report! I have assisted the master to accomplish this task], said Great Sage crashing down my fantasies and recalling me the reality. I sighed and said,' Sure, it's not like I was gonna take your credit anyway ', Then I glanced at the sky above me and said," Anyway! That's not what it matters, I have a lot of time to master magics, let's continue with simple elemental magics and then approach the uncharted territory!".

Thus, my grinding began, and this time I was hellbent on learning the method that could bring Miracles.
