Chapter 6: CHAPTER 4 – My first magic book

Once I got enough points, I decided to make my first important move. Buy my first magic book.

Why would it be so important?

Well. First of all. In the game. A magic book would register every usable spell you had. So, it will give me a list of all those spells I could use, but don’t know of. The second reason is, that if what Lars said it’s right. I might be able to create my own spells with a magic book, how, I still don’t know. But, what matters, it’s that it is possible.

Finally, and this is something that, at least for me matters now. They increase your ML. In the original Tibia, the increase is minimum, so you mostly went with shields instead of a spellbook. At most you could get four more magic levels, though some of them did add a few special attributes. But, in OTS, the amount could be higher, and the special effects or attributes could be better.

Of course, it is always bonus ML, so it won’t help you gain new spells in this world where ML is the requirement to learn them.

Going back on track, here, in this new world, the magic books or spell books might be as important to a Sorcerer as a wand to a wizard. With that said, I now have my own spellbook. The basic one that appears in the system’s store.

[You have bought ‘Magic Spell Book’ for 150pts.]

[Quick tutorial for virgins! When you buy an item, it goes into your inventory!]

“…”-I just looked at the message for a little while, before opening my inventory, which I could access anytime with just willing it.

And just as the system said, in it, I could see an inventory system really similar to Tibia’s own inventory system, with the magic book’s sprite inside of it.

When I thought about taking it out, the icon disappeared and a light appeared in front of me before transforming into a somehow big book, it was approximately 26cm from top to bottom, and 23cm wide. It got a lot of pages, at least two hundred of them, though it’s not like I would count them.

The design of the book was pretty much the same one as in the game, but like… In real life?

It was of a purple color, with a slight black decoration on the borders of the cover and the back of the book. On the front-side, in the middle of a completely purple-colored cover, was a Half-moon, and a cross hanging from the top part of it with a little inclination towards the middle of the body.

Its cover was made of leather. Feeling amazing at the touch.

{Finally… Now… I’ll be able to see what’s inside this book after years of seeing it.}-I thought while opening the book in the first book.

On the first page. It curiously had my name in the middle of the page, and the words ‘Magic Spell Book’ under it.

“Huh, so it’s kind of like a bound item? Oh well, it’s also weird, the original name should be only Spellbook. Guess, there’s something different with this one.”-I said while turning the page.

“Now… This is amazing…”-I said while looking at the second page of the book. It was the first spell I ever made. Magic patch. But… It wasn’t just the name of the spell with a little bit more information as I was accustomed to the game.

There was complete research on the spell. From the name to the magic syllables needed to incantate, and even what looks like some kind of runes and some kind of small recreation of the spell. An explanation of the actual spell and the research, and down at the end of the page the magic core’s stage necessary for its incantation, and also a number beside it. 1. From what I can see, that should be the ML necessary for it to work…

Looking at the next page, I found the second spell I knew. Buzz. Again, the same. The name, magic syllables, runes, a recreation of the spell, and a description of it, along with the stage and the ML needed to use the spell.

“Huh?”-turning the page. I saw another spell that I didn’t know. Scorch, an apprentice spell that makes a slight burn towards where you direct it. The magic syllables were Exori Infir Flam Hur.

The only reason I couldn’t actually use the spell before was because of the “Hur” attached to it. It meant either “Wind” or “Augment”. Using this syllable would either spread your spell power, increasing its power and range, or increasing either its speed or yours with the power of the wind.

“Now… While I would love to test this skill… Doing it here would burn things… So, I better not.”

With each passing page. I got to see each spell, from Exura to Utevo Lux. And passing them, I got to see the more advanced spells that, for the moment, I couldn’t use. But… Sometime… Sometime in the future… I’m sure I will be able to use each and every spell found in this book.

“Now, I need to keep this a secret…”-I closed the book and looked at the front page. “Thankfully, I have a perfect way.”

Looking at it, a simple thought made it disappear. Opening the inventory, there it was. In the first and only occupied slot.

“Now that I think about hiding secrets… Wasn’t there something I should be careful about with my situation…?”-I ponder for a bit, and that’s when it comes to me.

“Of course! Lege… Lego… Legilimens! Those guys that can basically read your mind and make disasters in there… Shit… I almost make a grave mistake not thinking about it faster…”

[A new quest has been generated! Check it as soon as possible!]

A system message appeared. And just like it asked. I went directly towards the quests’ menu.

[Quests

New quests!

- Start your journey as a pyromaniacal! Turn your first target to ashes with the apprentice strike! (25pts.)

- Now that you’ve remembered something so important after five years, it’s time for you to start your training in occlumency (I better say it in case you’ll have to wait another five years just to remember it, consider it a tip!). Start to close your mind towards outside interference, you idiot! (35pts.)

Quests done!

“… Now, seriously. It’s this that fucker Lars’ doing? Or it’s the system that likes to insult me?”

[It is me! The System!]

“… I shouldn’t have asked.”-I said while looking at the weird message that appeared in front of me. “Now… How the heck do I train in occlumency… In the movies, Snape only said something like ‘Stop your thoughts and don’t let the enemies enter your mind’. So, it seems it's something like sheer willpower and stuff… Well… I was always an introverted person… Maybe that helps…”

Pondering for a little bit longer, I remembered that in the vast majority of fanfics I read about Harry Potter, most of the protagonist merely did stuff like ‘reinforcing’ their mind’s space or mindscape, putting traps, fake memories, fortified places, and things like that with the help of magic.

So, with the thought that I should first try to access this mindscape of mine, I went to meditate, thinking about the hassle it would be for me to actually learn occlumency.
