Water and Fire Twins Magician
Chapter 17 Continue to Grow Up
In addition to learning knowledge from books, Jacques' more important task, of course, is to learn magic and martial arts.
The group of priests who worshipped him as their ancestor left Jacques with countless magical books that were considered top secret, but these were all entry-level books for beginners to improve their physical fitness and enhance their elemental adaptability.
Because according to their opinion, no matter how talented Jacques is, he is still a child, so these common sense books are most suitable for him. And the best age for children on the Love Continent to learn magic is from the age of eight.
"From now on, the basic theory of magic will be rewritten because of you. Children with potential should practice as early as possible! Damn it, over the past tens of thousands of years, I don't know how many excellent seedlings have been ruined by these boring theories! If they all had resources like you, who knows to what extent magic would have evolved!" Gandalf spoke impassionedly.
But he seemed to have forgotten that Jacques had a condition that other babies could not have, that is, he had been consciously practicing since he was one month old. Other babies simply could not do that.
Although the temple would not open its doors to Jacques before he was eight years old, Jacques didn't care. Gandalf was one of the best magicians.
But Gandalf didn't seem to intend to teach him real magic.
"You don't need to worry about these for now. Just focus on improving your magic power and elemental affinity." Gandalf said a little stubbornly: "You will not be wrong if you listen to me. In the future, you will understand how important it is to lay a solid foundation through hard study and practice over the years."
Children have a lot of free time, and Jacques has no worries about food and clothing, so he just has to enjoy himself and practice aggregating water elements into ultra-concentrated pure water. He starts by controlling them to spin in the air. Within a few years, he has improved to the point where he can control hundreds of pure water droplets at the same time, arranging them in various formations in the air to play competitive games.
"If you really want to practice real magic, it's not impossible. Haven't you already learned water polo?"
Gandalf's words reminded Jacques, and he recalled the scene of Helen's Festival and began to practice water polo. However, his water polo was different from the ordinary ones, he didn't need to recite any spells, he just did it at random.
"The spell is actually a set formula of Xiaodong's magic elements. As long as you are proficient enough in a certain element, the formula will be imprinted in your subconscious mind, and you will naturally not need the spell." Gandalf explained: "If you want to successfully reach the Holy Land or even a higher realm in the future, you must start with the most basic magic and practice all magic to the point where you don't need to recite the spell."
In this way, the days passed.
By the time Jacques was six years old, the servants in the manor had been relieved of their daily work of fetching water. They only needed to tell Master Jacques, and without waiting, a large water ball would fall into the bucket. And it would be just full, without a drop leaking out.
Jacques liked this kind of practice very much because he loved playing basketball in his previous life. This practice was similar to shooting, but his talent in magic control was far better than his talent in basketball.
"That's almost it. You've made some progress in the water polo technique... barely half of what I could do in my prime." Gandalf forced out a compliment.
"Are you that great, old man?" After years of getting along, Jacques has become accustomed to calling the other person "old man."
"This is all child's play. My child, the continent of Love is so vast, and there are so many extraordinary people. It is unimaginable in a remote place like Marsala Ridge. Wait a moment, you will soon have the opportunity to see this big world." Gandalf said earnestly.
In the past few years, Jacques has lived in peace. Since the Helen's Festival that year, no one has bothered him anymore.
The disturbing butler, Maister, should have been the biggest uncertainty in Jacques' life.
"I am sure he had discovered your details. If he had brought it up directly, the priests would have examined it themselves, and we would have been finished on the spot," said Gandalf.
"I still remember the force that invaded my body." Jacques looked down at his palms: "With my current ability, is it enough to fight him?"
"You're dreaming. It's too early. Let's not talk about how much strength he used at that time. You have been growing in the past few years, and he will also practice and improve. You can't underestimate your opponent. This person is definitely not an ordinary butler." Gandalf replied.
But what surprised them was that, since Meister probably already knew Jacques' secret, he did not take advantage of it at all, and was even more friendly to Jacques and Beruni than before.
Originally, Jacques and Gandalf both thought that it was Maistre who ordered the killing of Jacques' predecessor, so his confusing attitude made it even more difficult for them to understand.
