"This is beginner magic?"
At that moment, as Shien looked at the sandy ground before him, now reduced to a complete mess, his forehead was filled with question marks.
What was beginner magic?
To put it bluntly, it was magic with the weakest power and effects.
Not to mention, Shien had used the most basic of beginner spells. Logically speaking, their effects and power should have been barely worth mentioning.
Yet now, looking at the scene before him, Shien felt that even intermediate magic would be no more impressive than this.
"I was especially careful to control my magic power this time..."
Having learned his lesson from the Magic Sword, Shien did not dare unleash all his magic power without restraint from the very start. He had only used the minimum amount necessary to reliably cast the spell.
In that case, with so little magic power used, there was no way the most basic beginner magic should have displayed such power, right?
If Shien had already acquired Magic skills and raised their levels, it would have been understandable.
But he had only just obtained the Magic skills for the four attributes. He had not even had time to learn them all, so how could they possibly demonstrate such power?
"I haven't even leveled up Meditation or Chanting yet..."
In other words, no matter how one looked at it, the beginner magic Shien had cast should not have been capable of reaching this level of power.
Unless some other factor had drastically increased the magic's power.
Shien could not help glancing at one of his skills—Magic Guidance.
This skill, which could greatly increase both Shien's magic power and the power and effects of the magic he used, was undoubtedly the greatest culprit behind this scene.
Shien immediately backed away in silence,
