Chapter 67: Methods to Harness Magic Power
“Xiao Han.”
Seeing me waving here, Bai Yu also ran over excitedly.
“Ah hey, Sister Bai, I’m sorry for bothering you so late, I lost track of time…”
“It’s nothing; I wasn’t sleeping anyway.” Bai Yu immediately said, dismissing most of my apology, “You mentioned on the phone that you’ve made progress with your meditation, is that true?”
“Eh? Are you still doubting what I said, Sister Bai? That really hurts my feelings.” I summoned my mental power, seemingly showing off as I lifted it in my hand, “Look, mental power threads~”
“Hmm?” Clearly, Bai Yu showed a puzzled expression towards my actions.
“What’s wrong? Can’t you see them? Use spirit vision.”
“You can see the existence of mental power with your spirit vision?” At this moment, Bai Yu responded seriously, questioning me.
After hearing her question, I realized that I might have unintentionally exposed something.
After a brief moment of silence, both Bai Yu and I tacitly decided not to mention this matter again.
“Alright, be good~ How could Sister Bai not believe you?” Bai Yu reached out to pinch my cheek, smiling as she broke the earlier deadlock.
“Mm, thank you, Sister Bai~”
“It’s nothing, just pay attention in the future; you’re such a genius, be careful not to make others jealous.”
“Not provoking jealousy is for the mediocre. Let’s go, Sister Bai~”
“Indeed, Xiao Han can really talk.” Bai Yu nodded in agreement, not mentioning the earlier topic again, and accompanied me out of there.
On the way out, I kept chatting with Bai Yu since I had so many questions I wanted to clarify, although there were many I couldn’t bring myself to ask, and some secrets I would carry alone for a lifetime.
“Sister Bai, I already have mental power threads, so why can’t I harness any magic power at all?”
“The energy level of magic power is very high; it is the highest level of extraordinary energy that can be harnessed by life, and it is an energy only witches can master. That’s why this energy is called magic power, derived from the witch race~”
“Ah? So magic power is that terrifying?”
Listening to Bai Yu’s explanation, I didn’t expect magic power to hold such a powerful status.
It’s the highest level existence.
Isn’t that more impressive than the three academies?
So the Witch Academy is the most profound one after all; I really didn’t make the wrong choice!
“Of course.”
“So how many threads of mental power do I need to harness magic power?”
I continued to ask, since if I couldn’t personally harness magic power, then spells and the magic source would ultimately be external objects, not a force entirely within my grasp.
“You’re asking the wrong question; no amount of mental power threads can shake magic power.” Bai Yu immediately corrected me, “Only more solidified mental power can affect magic power; higher quality mental power is needed to interfere with and even harness magic power.”
“How do I improve the quality of my mental power threads? How can I enhance them?”
I was very clear that the meditation method did not mention how to raise the refinement level and quality of mental power threads.
“Of course, you need to elevate your own life level. I know you don’t quite understand this, but once you figure out the relationship, you can clarify it.”
Bai Yu cleared her throat and continued to explain.
“Right now, you are a preparatory witch. If you want to master the energy of magic power, you need to meditate to refine your mental power and obtain mental power threads. However, even though you now have mental power threads, you still cannot shake magic power. This requires improving the quality of your mental power.”
“How to improve the quality and refinement level of mental power? You need to elevate your own life level. When your life level increases, it will passively strengthen your mental power.”
“And… how do I raise my life level? Do you remember when I inserted the magic source into you; that process was what I called witch transformation? The witch transformation is the process of elevating you to the level of an extraordinary witch. The advancement of the witch transformation progress effectively enhances your life level. So, how do we speed up the witch transformation process? Can you guess what to do?”
In the end, Bai Yu didn’t directly tell me but let me guess.
Actually, I had some thoughts on this issue, so I tentatively said, “Could it be to increase the quantity of my own magic source?”
“Exactly! It’s about increasing the number of your own magic sources! Looks like you understand a lot.” Bai Yu was also surprised that I could think of this.
In Bai Yu’s view, she thought I wouldn’t know much about this aspect.
But at this moment, she also realized that she couldn’t keep viewing me with the previous perspective.
After all, I had just achieved a remarkable feat.
I succeeded on my first attempt at meditation.
This was something only the top geniuses of each generation could accomplish. For instance, this generation’s hopeful candidate, Tan Han, who was the top scorer this year, clearly had extraordinary talent.
As for why she was deemed a genius in the extraordinary realm just because she was the top scorer in the college entrance examination, it was a level that ordinary students couldn’t reach.
“Hehe~ I know a little.” I said modestly.
“That’s not just a little; this isn’t something that can be explained with mere understanding. Fixed thinking can be very harmful. Many new students halfway through their first semester still don’t realize that a magic source can have more than one.” After Bai Yu led me out of the meditation room, she took out her broomstick.
“Do you mind taking a ride on the broom? I see you’re quite tired; let me take you back.”
“Thank you, Sister Bai. Now that you mention it, I really am quite tired.” I subconsciously yawned, realizing that fatigue was indeed the fundamental reason.
If I returned to the villa at this hour and went to sleep, I felt I wouldn’t be able to get up in the morning.
Maybe I should text Senior Ying Shiqian or Senior Tang Yihan to let them know since I hadn’t been absent for days; it was only natural to say something if I was suddenly late, even though I was a part-time employee with no fixed working hours.
After sitting on the senior’s broom, although it wasn’t my first time, I still felt a bit nervous, fearing I might fall.
However, the cold wind in the night sky invigorated me quite a bit.
“How about it, Xiao Han? Do you want to learn how to use a flying broomstick?” Bai Yu asked, sensing my apprehension.
“Eh? But I don’t have money to buy a broomstick, right?”
“Not now doesn’t mean never. If you want, I can buy one for you, but you have to be able to obtain a flying license first.”
“Oh, there’s no need for you to spend money on that, Sister Bai, but flying does sound really cool. As for the flying license… let’s talk about it later.”
“Don’t you want to take the opportunity to try it now? There’s still quite a while before school starts.” Sister Bai seemed eager for me to give it a try, her tone carrying a hint of anticipation.
“Well, it’s not impossible?” After thinking for a moment, I relented. After all, there was still plenty of time before school starts, and I couldn’t keep working at the bakery, could I?
Plus, if I could fly on a broom on my own, that scene would definitely be very cool!
