Side Volume

This is an explanation of the no-attribute magic and death-attribute magic used by the protagonist.

Different spells require different amounts of technical skill and Mana. When the protagonist lacks the technical skill for a certain spell, he makes up for it by expending a large amount of Mana to cast the spell forcibly.

Also, as each type of magic levels up in skill, the strength and effects of their spells increase.

No-attribute magic

This is magic cast using Mana that hasn't been influenced by any attribute and doesn't exist in Origin.

Because it uses Mana that hasn't been influenced by any attribute, anyone can use it no matter what attribute he or she has an affinity for. Thus, it is convenient for both those teaching the fundamentals of magic as well as those learning them, so apprentice mages begin learning the sensation of using and controlling Mana with this magic.

Because no-attribute Mana is not influenced by any attribute, it quickly disperses once it leaves the body. Because it is difficult to maintain, only has simple effects and using magic with an attribute produces more efficient and effective results, the people of Lambda consider it as little more than a tool to train with.

It is common for first-rate mages with level 5 in magic with an attribute to have a level 1 skill in No-Attribute Magic.

However, there are also a few who do not fail to perform fundamental training in no-attribute magic.

· Telekinesis

o Skill Requirement: Minimal to great, depending on the object being moved, speed and distance of movement

o Mana requirement: As above

A spell that moves an object with Mana. It is similar to psychokinesis.

Anything from a pebble to a boulder can be moved as long as it is a physical object. As long as the caster has enough Mana, he can freely control the distance and speed of the movement.

However, the average mage would likely run out of Mana and collapse just from moving a human-sized boulder a single meter.

It can also be used on objects that are moving, but this requires a high level in the Mana Control skill.

· Flight

o Skill Requirement: If ignoring safety, low

o Mana requirement: A small-medium amount per second, depending on the caster's body weight. With higher speeds and complicated flight patterns, the required amount of Mana increases rapidly.

An application of Telekinesis. As Telekinesis is used to lift up and move the caster's own body, it is a fundamentally dangerous spell. Failing to control it properly would result in the caster killing himself.

If the caster loses concentration, it is common that he crashes head-first into the ground.

· Appraisal

o Skill Requirement: Low

o Mana requirement: Low

The promised all-purpose skill of isekai works... is not this one.

The Appraisal spell of Lambda is a spell that produces information regarding the target by drawing conclusions from information already known to the caster. So when the caster uses Appraisal on an unknown target, it simply makes conjectures from the caster's own knowledge.
