Era of Players: Death God

Most of the studts nodded in agreemt, but Arthur raised his hand, catching Demas\'s atttion.

"Yes, Arthur, what\'s your question?" Demas welcomed the inquiry, glad that his studts were gaged and not intimidated by his serious tone.

"Thank you, teacher," Arthur replied politely before posing his question. "I want to know if the elemts you mtioned are the only ones in the nature-based magic system."

The other studts nodded, relieved that Arthur had asked the question they were all curious about but too afraid to ask.

Demas looked at his studts, realizing their thoughts. He sighed, realizing that he had come across as overly serious and promised himself to light up in the future.

"No, water, earth, fire, air, and wood are not the only elemts in the nature-based magic system. There are other elemts such as lightning and ice," Demas explained, providing the additional information.

Arthur nodded, but before he could raise his hand again, Lilith beat him to it, her hand shooting up in the air.

"What is it, Miss Lilith?" Demas\'s expression softed, impressed by Lilith\'s eagerness to participate. He had a favorable impression of the young girl, known for her magical talt and love for the subject.

Lilith nodded slightly before explaining her reason for raising her hand. "Teacher, I believe the Life and Death branch of the Magic system can be categorized as Light and Dark Magic. The Light elemt represts life, healing, and other light-related abilities, while the Dark elemt compasses necromancy and other dark-related abilities."

Lilith sat back down after sharing her viewpoint, her expression filled with anticipation.

There was a brief momt of silce before Demas broke into a smile. His smile conveyed appreciation for something worth noting, something worth nurturing because it had the pottial to shine brightly.

"Bravo, Miss Lilith. You\'ve earned 5 merit points for your insightful observation. It\'s exactly as you said. How clever of you to think beyond the existing system and propose a new perspective," Demas praised, guinely pleased with Lilith\'s contribution.

Arthur gritted his teeth in frustration, realizing he had missed another opportunity to earn merit points. In just two hours, Lilith had accumulated a whopping merit points, equivalt to 00 credits.

While Arthur fumed over his missed chance, the other studts wided their eyes in realization. None of them had thought so deeply about the subject. As Demas had pointed out, they had simply accepted the existing system without questioning its pottial for improvemt.

Not wanting to be outdone, Arthur raised his hand again, a competitive glint in his eyes. Demas chuckled, understanding Arthur\'s drive to prove himself.

"What is it, Arthur? Do you have something to share with the class?" Demas asked, couraging Arthur to express his thoughts.

Arthur nodded and spoke confidtly, wanting to make up for lost opportunities. "Teacher, I believe Gravity magic should be considered an Uncommon Magic. Although it stems from the elemt of Earth in the nature-based magic system, it is a more advanced form."

Lilith stared at Arthur, nodding in agreemt, as if she had arrived at the same conclusion.

Demas listed atttively, pondering over Arthur\'s words, causing the young studt to tse up in anticipation. Finally, Demas spoke, a smile playing on his lips.

"Not bad, Arthur. I\'ll give you merit points for your contribution," Demas announced.

Arthur secretly made a victory sign, feeling a sse of accomplishmt. Though merit points may not seem like much, he knew that by steadily accumulating them, he could evtually surpass Lilith.

Feeling smug, Arthur glanced in Lilith\'s direction, hoping to catch her atttion. But as expected, she was focused on the lesson, oblivious to his presce. Arthur chuckled to himself, suddly wondering what Noah was up to.

"Alright, let\'s move on to the topic of Magic casting," Demas\'s voice brought Arthur back to reality.

The studts eagerly directed their atttion towards their teacher, their interest piqued. Demas nodded in response, pleased to see their thusiasm, and began his explanation.

"I will now discuss Magic casting, or more specifically, Magic incantation. Some believe that incantations are unnecessary for Players who possess skills. They think that simply calling out the name of the skill is ough," Demas explained.

Most of the studts nodded, sharing this common belief. Demas smirked, not surprised by their response, as it was a commonly held belief. But he was determined to correct their misconception.

"While I understand why most think this way, magic casting is esstial for mages because it amplifies the power of their spells," Demas continued, capturing the atttion of his studts.

The studts\' eyes wided in interest, including Lilith, who was particularly intrigued.

"We have the image of the skills and their information graved in our minds as soon as we acquire them. For example, the image of a Fireball is a small flame that appears before casting it. But by adding an incantation, you can modify that image and make the spell ev more powerful," Demas explained, demonstrating with a fireball conjured in his hand.

Once everyone had se it, he canceled the spell and th added an incantation.

"Oh flame, hear my call and manifest to burn my emy!" Demas recited the incantation, and a fireball materialized, much larger and more powerful than the previous one, resembling a basketball in size.

The studts\' eyes gleamed with excitemt and awe.

"Wow!"

"That\'s awesome!"

"That\'s so cool!"

The studts expressed their amazemt at the hanced spell, realizing the impact that incantations could have on their magical abilities.

Demas smiled at their reactions, pleased with their thusiasm. He had successfully emphasized the importance of incantations in their magical practice.

"Now you see the power of incantations. They have the ability to hance your spells and make them more pott. So, while it may be tempting to rely solely on your skills, incorporating incantations can take your magic to new heights,"

Demas concluded.

The studts nodded, their minds buzzing with ideas and possibilities.

From that momt on, the studts approached magic casting with a newfound appreciation and understanding. They began experimting with differt incantations, discovering how they could modify and amplify their spells.

Demas watched his studts with pride, knowing that he had succeeded in teaching them a valuable lesson. The classroom was now filled with an atmosphere of excitemt and creativity, as the studts embraced the power of incantations in their magical journey.
