Magic

**Magic** is a power that beings able to manipulate Mana are able to demonstrate. Every living thing possesses Mana and humans learn to use it to fuel their Magic, though some have no aptitude for it.

## Magic

The phenomenon known as Magic is the caster’s ‘imagination’ and their ability to materialize it. It is difficult to ‘imagine’ using Magic when first learning it, most students would have some kind of visual in front of them to make it easier to imagine and use words to form chants that help focus their intent. If a Magician attempts to cast high level spells without the necessary control they can 'over throttle', injuring themselves and burning themselves out. Some Magicians can even lose control of their Mana and become consumed by it, becoming a Devil, but this is considered exceptionally rare with only one appearing throughout history.

To produce Magic, one must be able to exercise control over their Mana and the Magic Power it materializes to achieve an intended outcome. Initially chants were believed to be necessary to cast spells but with enough Magic Power, imagination and precise visualization, a Magician can accomplish many impressive and devastating feats without words. Magic is present anywhere and everywhere in this world, but there’s no one who can control all kinds of Magic perfectly.

Most Magicians cast similar types of spells because they often imagine similar outcomes but the style and use of these 'spells' differ from caster to caster based on what is easier for each Magician to visualize. While the majority cast similar Magic, there are those who differ. For example, Shin; an original resident of modern day Japan overflowing with creativity and an understanding of science, who was reincarnated into this world upon his death with his memories intact. Since incantation wasn’t needed, it was easy enough for him to reproduce things you would usually only see in anime and manga by including the individual processes that go into each spell, like manipulating the chemicals of fire to increase its intensity or folding space to form a 'gate' between locations instead of teleporting, which is riskier and more difficult.

## Types of Magic

### Spells

**Spells** are the effects of Magic focused through imagination, visualization and intent. Spells are created by the Magician focusing their Mana into Magic Power. Shin stated that visualization works but chants are optional, having Magic to fuel your spell isn't. The more a Magician practices amassing and controlling Magic Power, the more Magic they can put into their spells and eventually even simple spells can become exceptionally powerful.

Magicians can create new spells and learn spells from one another but they must understand the process and outcome of each spell. Even Merlin had trouble duplicating Shin's gate spell as he couldn't understand the concept of manipulating space to shorten the distance between places but eventually he was able to use it. Stating that if you understand and visualize a spells mechanism you need only apply the correct amount of Magic Power. Spells can be used by Magicians to accomplish many amazing and powerful techniques, like manifesting and controlling the elements, healing, creating Magic barriers, defying gravity and enchanting ordinary objects and tools with magical properties.

### Enchantment

**Enchantment** is used to inscribe equipment with Magic. To enchant, one must imagine the kind of Enchantment one wants to transfer to an item on the tip of their finger or wand. Then, use ‘a certain method’ to release the Magic, and apply it on the item. After the item has been enchanted, the mechanism to activate the Enchantment is pretty simple. It is said that these kinds of enchanted items are very useful to those who are unable to use Magic, or even the general public.

In the past, Enchantment Magic was used solely for combat to enhance the effectiveness of weapons, but Melinda Bowen would go on to expand the function and use of enchanted items to make everyday life easier for the common people. This earned her the title "The Guru".

### Magic Tools

**Magic Tools** are enchanted items that are not common, and because they are scarce, they are very expensive. One can boost their status depending on the number of Magic Tools one carries. The creation of Magic Tools itself is inexpensive. However, the fee for the technology to create them is.

The symbols required to enchant a tool are limited to only a few characters and are also dependent on the material of the tool. If the material is cheap and weak or expensive and sturdy and the more characters inscribed the stronger the tool, the more expensive it is. The characters of this world are alphabets and multiple combined words have identical meanings. Since there are multiple words with the same meaning as one word, it wasn’t unusual for the number of characters to not exceed more than a word.
