The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 199 Eighteen Magics

Moran composed himself, recalling the spell's effect from the picture, and pointed his wand at the pen tip on the table, casting the Sharpening spell.

Magic flowed from the wand and enveloped the pen nib.

Once she felt she had done enough, she stopped casting the spell.

In the energy field, the pen tip was indeed coated with a layer of magical light.

Moran gripped the pen and scribbled heavily across the desk, leaving a half-centimeter-deep groove on the surface.

The pen nib, however, showed no signs of wear.

This is definitely not something an ordinary fountain pen nib can achieve!

Without a doubt, the spell was successful.

She glanced at her character card.

[Magic: ...Sharpening Spell (Apprentice)]

It has indeed been included.

It wasn't really unexpected.

The essence of witch magic is to use spellcasting commands to control magic power to produce a specific magical effect.

Whether the spellcasting instructions are clear and accurate determines whether the magic will succeed.

In the past, Moran might not have been able to accurately grasp the casting instructions for Sharpness, because there was no reference and he had to rely more on his imagination.

But now, through the picture book, she already has a clear impression of the spell's effects, and she can imitate it quite well.

Although the casting speed is not fast, and a high level of concentration must be maintained throughout, and there are some additional losses during the casting process, it does not affect the fact that it is indeed successful.

If Sharpening magic works, then other spells will certainly work too.

The vine spell requires vine seeds or a ready-made vine plant as the target of the spell. Moran thought of the loofah vine in the yard.

She used her repair skills to fix the scratches on the desk, and then opened the window in front of the desk.

Under the moonlight, the courtyard wall was covered with loofah vines.

The loofahs are growing so well this season that they're even taking up space from other crops growing nearby.

In the past, Moran would manually pull the loofah vines to limit their growth, but now, she stared at the wall of loofah vines and used her vine magic.

The loofah vines, under her magical control, gathered together on a wall.

This magic was originally used to control vines to attack enemies, bind enemies, or tie things up.

The vines controlled by the vine spell become stronger and harder to break free from. The stronger the vines are, the greater the magical amplification they receive.

Green witches often plant many thorny, poisonous, or fire-resistant vines along the fences surrounding their dwellings, as preparation for this magic.

Normally they are just ordinary vines, but under the vine spell, they become fierce and menacing guards.

Moran's novice-level vine spell had a negligible magical amplification on the loofah vines, but it was surprisingly useful for tidying them up.

In the past, she would do it herself, and she had to be very careful not to damage the loofah, just like untangling a fragile ball of yarn.

With the Vine spell, you don't have to worry about this at all.

Controlling the loofah vines over a large area requires a relatively larger amount of magic power.

Fortunately, this magic was nothing to her, being a witch.

Next up is the Water Mirror Spell. There's not much to say about the Apprentice level Water Mirror Spell; it's just a magical mirror that reflects your image.

At most, the water mirror she could release was a little larger than that of other little witches; on her first attempt, she could release a water mirror large enough to reflect her entire upper body.

The clarity of the water mirror is also quite good.

After that, the spider on the eaves was electrocuted by the electric grid.

A tiny, translucent spider emerged from the spider corpse, stood there blankly, and then disappeared after a short while.

No matter how much I call out, it won't come out.

Flames climbed onto the spider's corpse, and when the flames disappeared, not a speck of ash remained.

A small pit appeared in the vegetable garden in the yard, and a palm-sized block of earth appeared on the desk. After a while, the block of earth shrank to the size of a marble.

She picked up the iced bread and juice, took a sip, and threw the small block of earth back into the yard.

Then, a blinding flash of light and utter darkness enveloped the dormitory in succession.

A small golden bird appeared from the void. Moran fiddled with it for a long time, not knowing what to do. For some reason, the golden bird suddenly became agitated, pecked her finger, and then spread its wings and disappeared.

Moran sensed only a hint of annoyance from it and wondered what he had done to offend it.

I cleaned the injured fingertip with a cleansing spell, preparing to heal the wound, only to find that it had already healed.

I forgot about the Apprentice-level Super Healing I gained from fusing with vampire blood.

She picked up the still-sharp pen, intending to imitate Lilith and slap her hand to test the healing spell.

After gesturing several times, he still couldn't bring himself to do it, and somewhat regretted using the electric net spell to electrocute the little spider.

Unfortunately, there wasn't a second spider under the eaves for her to experiment with.

"Maybe I should try the Luck spell," Moran thought to himself, and so he did, and then... and then nothing happened.

The spell of luck was successfully cast, and all the character cards were collected, but she was not lucky enough to encounter a little thing that allowed her to test her magic.

With wind elements swirling around her feet, she wandered around the courtyard but didn't manage to find any good spellcasting materials.

Apprentice-level luck spells are known to be unreliable, so this is to be expected.

Moran dared not continue casting it. Although the stacking effect was effective, it was best to use this spell only once a day. Regardless of whether luck came or not, it was best not to continue using it.

Overuse of blessings can bring bad luck.

The curse of bad luck doesn't have this limitation, but it can't be stacked, and more importantly, Moran doesn't dare to use it on himself.

Although the apprentice-level curse of bad luck is at most a prank, and like the curse of luck, it works sometimes and doesn't work sometimes, one of its magical effects is that it often "shows its power" at crucial moments.

This magic works on an opponent, but Moran always felt uneasy about using it on himself.

I'll try it out with a small spider or ant tomorrow.

When Moran returned to her dormitory, she broke off a tree branch and placed it on the table. She then used her "direction-asking" magic on the branch, which spun around on the table before finally coming to a stop.

The thinner end points directly south.

I've only read a few pages of "The Practical Apprentice Witch's Magic Book," and I've already learned sixteen of the eighteen spells. The remaining two aren't that I don't know them, but rather that I don't have a target to cast them on.

"By the way, can you cast a spell if there's no target?"

Moran cast a healing spell on the air, but the magical energy, unable to find a target, simply vanished into thin air. The spell was successful, though the effect was not visible.

Similarly, a curse was cast on the air, and a small dark cloud the size of an egg floated out of the wand. It wandered aimlessly in the direction the wand was pointing for a while before reluctantly dissipating into the air.
