Reincarnated at Level Two Million - Chapter 85

“What do I need to do to learn gravity magic?” Zell asked Sid.

“First let me ask you, do you understand how gravity works?” Sid replied.

“What goes up, must come down?” Zell said.

“Gravity is actually a force of the universe.” Sid explained. “Essentially it is the attraction between a large or dense mass and a smaller mass. That is only part of the explanation though. Gravitational waves permeate through every bit of matter in the multiverse. They are what cause this phenomenon of attraction. The closer the waves are together the move force is applied. The further apart the weaker. As those waves pass through an object of density or high mass, they get closer and therefore create a gravitational pull.

Those waves also have an effect on the fabric of time within the multiverse. The more intense their pull the more their change to the flow of time. So, through proper application of gravity magic, one could theoretically time travel, but it would just be a matter of moving forward. As time is altered around the pull of the waves, time remains normal for everyone else. If altered enough a few seconds inside of the gravitational event could be years to everyone else. All of that is for a later lesson though. Today I simply wish to teach you magic that will allow you to defy the attraction of the waves.”

“Alright.” Zell replied, nodding in understanding. “What do you need me to do? How do I defy the waves as you put it?”

“Can you feel your own weight?” Sid asked. “Can you feel yourself being pulled towards the ground? It is subtle because your body adapts early in life, blocking that sensation from your brain. Concentrate on that pull. Try to feel it. Then you will be on the right track to feeling the waves.”

“I will try.” Zell said as he closed his eyes to focus. He lifted his arms in front of himself to maximize the sensation of gravity. As he felt his muscles begin to slightly tire, he connected it to the pull of the waves and opened his mind to them. Just as he saw the wind as ribbons before he could see massive waves that stretched from the planet to the sky. They moved rapidly, but he could see them in his head. “I see the waves.” He said, with his eyes still closed.

“The speed at which you learn scares me, human.” Sid said with a nervous laugh. “Now that you can see the waves you should be able to feel the force they emit. Focus on that. Push against that force to reduce its effect on your own body.

Zell did just that. As he did, he felt a strange sensation as his body became more and more weightless until he began to float above the ground. The experience startled him, and he lost his focus. As soon as his concentration broke, he fell onto the ground face first.

Sid laughed and started to clap. “Very good! It took me eight hundred years to learn how to float!”

Zell picked himself off the ground and dusted himself off. “I lost my focus for a second.” He said. “So, if I fail to maintain concentration I will immediately fall?”

“That is correct.” Sid said. “You would just use your wings to glide down if that happened.”

“I don’t have wings.” Zell said.

“Right.” Sid said, nodding. “Humans don’t have wings… I knew that.”

“I will have Excalibur craft you a cloak that can stiffen and become a glider if you apply magic to it.” Sunea said. “That should keep you safe if something ever happened while you were flying.”

“Thank you.” Zell said.

“So, human you know how to fly now.” Sid replied. “Just combine the antigravity spell and the breeze spells and you will be able to float and then move through the air via wind magic.”

“Does gravity magic have any other uses?” Zell asked.

“Of course.” Sid said. “It can be used to alter someone else’s gravity as well. You could make them heavy so they cannot move or so light that they float into the sky. You can use it on objects that are normally too heavy to lift or on enemy projectiles to make them fall to the ground. When you master the art of gravity magic the possibilities are limitless.”

“This is really useful magic.” Zell said. “Thank you for teaching me.”

“Stick around for another few hours, human.” Sunea said. “That will give us time to make your cloak.”

“Alright I will.” Zell said.

Meanwhile back inside the house Lucille had retrieved Ocana and brought him to Camille.

“Alright I understand you cannot read your status plate?” Ocana said.

“That is correct.” Camille replied.

Ocana cast his spell and brought up her status. “Looks like you are another ridiculously strong human.” He said. “Your level is currently sitting at one million two hundred and forty-two. I have no idea what your life must have been like on your home planet, but it transferred into massive experience gains.”

“So, I am strong?” Camille said.

“Some would call you godlike.” Ocana laughed. “You could conquer the entire world using only your pinky and be back for afternoon tea. There is only one person aside from the gods themselves that could stop you. That is Master Zell, who has twice your power.”

“So, I could conquer the world?” Camille asked, thinking about her options.

“I would advise you not to follow that route.” Ocana said. “Master Zell is currently following that path, and if you go down it as well a confrontation may occur. It would be unwise to oppose him.”

“I see.” Camille replied. “Not that I would want to conquer the world. So, this world has magic, correct? Could I use it?”

“But of course.” Ocana said. “You already have in fact. The act of freeing elder black was a use of magic. If you like I can teach you some water magic, and there are other dragons that can teach you other kinds of magic as well.”

“Thanks.” Camille said. “Do you think there is magic that can send me home?”

“Outside of the realm of the gods I do not know.” Ocana replied. “Perhaps one day you will make it yourself though. You have a unique skill called spell crafter. From the sound of it, you will be able to make new never before seen magics.”

“Thanks for telling me.” Camille said. “Please teach me all you know.” She said with a bow.

“It will be my honor.” Ocana said with a smile.. “Let us move to the training grounds.”
