Reincarnation with AI (Unemployment-Free)

Magic power is released.

It began with an attempt to integrate magic into muscles.

This can be described as a passive process, an unintentional outcome.

Because Rudeus didn't know how to integrate magic into his muscles, his method manifested as releasing magic and "immersing" his muscles in it.

Rudeus wanted to integrate magic into his muscles, and he knew the muscles were there, but in his perception, there was nothing there.

This process is like taking a dump. The dump itself doesn't have a tactile feel, but it can provide a tactile feedback.

Magic is invisible.

Rudeus was unsure whether the magic he released was still lingering within his body or had already broken through to the surface.

The magic was simply being released outwards; no matter how much Rudeus intensified his exercise to contract his muscles, he didn't feel any magic being absorbed by anything.

There was no pulling sensation as if something released from the body was being taken away.

In the process of searching for muscles, some magical energy inevitably leaks out.

This means that Rudeus's body is always covered with a layer of magic when he is practicing swordsmanship.

After a long period of training, Rudeus has now become accustomed to projecting his magic.

He was used to being covered in a magical cloak when practicing swordsmanship, and using this magical cloak to find his muscles.

Although Rudius has not found anything yet.

However, the automation of the magic's external projection has already been completed.

Rudius no longer had to think about finding muscles; the process could now run spontaneously, like breathing.

Of course, this is using magic power after all, and Rudeus usually doesn't activate magic power release to avoid wasting it.

Rudius has recently made another new discovery.

After that association with the Rasengan, Rudeus has now begun training in the manipulation of magic itself.

The previous precise manipulation of earth magic was more like the manipulation of chakra after its nature has been transformed, as seen in the Naruto world.

Because in the material world, pure magic has no effect, which is why Rudeus had not thought of this before.

I really hadn't thought about the Rasengan.

Now that he thinks about it carefully, Rudeus still feels that the learning cost of the Rasengan is a bit too high.

It's a waste of energy to not understand what the Rasengan actually does.

Rudius doesn't have time to invest a lot of time in this kind of thing.

It's just that releasing magic has now become a habit, and the preliminary work has been completed.

Why not try training by directly manipulating the magic power being released externally?

Compared to earth magic training, isn't this skipping a step that involves changing the nature of the magic?

Will eliminating one step improve the efficiency of control training?

Is it true that if you master the manipulation of magic and then add your imagination to trigger a change in its properties, you are simultaneously training the manipulation of all types of magic?

Once you think about it this way, you have no choice but to do it.

If you can do that, the boost to your combat power will be significant.

Even without studying the Rasengan, simply viewing this technique as a form of magical training still has its significance.

In the game, this ability is essentially a basic passive skill for all types of magic.

For example, it could mean increased learning efficiency for all types of magic, increased operational efficiency for all types of magic, increased power for all types of magic, and so on.

If we abstract the operation itself, there are two very important steps in the training of Rasengan: maintenance and compression.

Maintaining this requires precise control over the "output," "rotation," and "constraint" of chakra, achieving a dynamic balance among the three to form a stable chakra sphere.

Compression involves the final compression of the stable rotating chakra ball, increasing its density and power.

This is very similar to the process by which the Water Saint-level magic [Thunderous Rain Cloud] transforms into the Water King-level magic [Lightning].

It's simply replacing the rotation of the physical process with the imagination of matter transformation.

Howell-Roll cumulonimbus clouds need to be constantly supplied with water vapor, cooled, and have their wind direction controlled by magic, so that the three factors work together to form a storm and maintain it.

Lightning, on the other hand, continuously compresses the storm, eventually confining the generated lightning into a beam that strikes the enemy.

Ultimately, there aren't many ways to manipulate energy itself; you can count them on your fingers. It's simply a matter of increasing, decreasing, storing, releasing, compressing, and diffusing...

Increasing and decreasing generally control power, while compression and diffusion can usually cause qualitative changes.

In cultivation novels, there are also purification or refinement processes. After one's cultivation reaches its limit, there are steps to remove impurities.

Rudeus felt that even if he didn't train in the Rasengan, he would eventually have to try to compress magic power for a higher level of magic.

It's just that the lightning magic is too dangerous, and Rudeus didn't want to be struck by lightning. Also, the emergence of flight magic took up too much of his magic training time, so he didn't practice it specifically.

Rudeus wasn't idle; he had been practicing magic compression, honing his refined manipulation skills through earth magic practice.

This involves a compression process, and it's very safe.

The magic released by simple common sense control.

Rudeus could sense that the refined control training in earth magic had a positive feedback effect on the training in pure magic power.

Controlling magic is not as difficult as you might imagine.

Rudeus hadn't anticipated the possibility of directly manipulating magic.

The connection between practicing the Rasengan and manipulating magic was only realized after seeing the water being stirred in the tank.

This is something that deserves serious reflection.

Why didn't you think of that?

Why is this kind of association necessary?

Isn't the ability to manipulate magic common sense that every magician should possess?

Where is the problem?

In his previous life, Rudeus's understanding of magic was basically limited to that blue tube in the game.

In the various isekai works I've read, there aren't many detailed settings regarding learning magic. The protagonist just uses Avada Kedavra to eat a melon and that's it; nobody cares how you learned it.

After arriving in this other world, there were no systematic conditions for learning magic, and even if I went to school, it probably wouldn't be as good as being taught by Loki.

As a result, Rudeus, who had no concept of learning "magic" itself, began to train magic from the outset, rather than magic itself.

This isn't how a normal education process should be!

Rudeus looked back and realized that he was being taught about the phenomena caused by magic, not about magic itself!

It's like someone is teaching you what water is. They tell you, "Water is for drinking, water is for washing clothes, water is needed for farming..."

But if you don't know that water is H2O, then you can't actively associate water with producing oxygen and hydrogen.

We can only deduce what water is by relying on gases that are generated unintentionally.

Ultimately, there are hardly any people in this world who can perform magic without chanting, so what kind of magic power do they have to cultivate?

Paul was completely unaware of the existence of fighting spirit!

Perhaps even magicians don't know about the existence of magic!

If you can't cast a spell, you can cast it; if you can't, it means you've run out of stamina.

What kind of magic?

Now that you've reminded me, I do remember.

Are you referring to that thing in the textbook that can't be trained?

Oh, I watched that when I was a kid too, but I've long forgotten everything I learned...

The reason we can't learn systematically is because the conditions simply don't exist in this world!

The only one who might need to train his magic power is the Dragon God. Rudeus remembers that the Dragon God has a kind of protective aura.

As a god-level combat force, it also possesses the inheritance of the divine era.

That kind of inheritance is perhaps what can be described as systematic learning and training.

Ultimately, the historical continuity of this world is interrupted.

The last three of the seven great powers were somewhat inferior compared to the first four.

Preconceived notions caused by historical reasons became a limitation that Rudius had not previously discovered.

If Rudius weren't from another world, he probably would never have discovered this in his entire life.

The discovery of the Rasengan was indeed a pleasant surprise.

This allowed Rudeus to practice the magic compression of lightning in advance, without any danger.

After just a brief trial, Rudeus felt that this should be more effective than practicing earth magic.

I feel like this is the right path now.

It wasn't taught in the textbooks either, and I only just realized it now. I feel like I've wasted so much time... Rudeus sighed...

If the training had started with manipulating magic, rather than focusing on the finer manipulation of earth magic, the results would have been far better...

Hey……

Stop thinking about it...

Why are there so many annoying things happening lately?

Rudius took a deep breath, and his furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

He calmly and peacefully conducted training in controlling the magic.

Of course, to outsiders, Rudius was just playing with water in a bucket.

Recently, with the increase in the number of training sessions...

Rudeus gradually felt a sensation, as if the outward-radiating magic had transformed into the fine hairs extending from his body.

Let's use poop as an analogy.

Because the released magic is connected to the body.

Therefore, Rudius's judgment of muscles is to look for the feeling of stretching.

Unfortunately, the muscles weren't up to par, remaining unmoved even when "immersed" in magic.

Rudeus's attention was entirely focused on this aspect, and he neglected the familiar connection between magic and his body.

After all, this feeling will occur regardless of what kind of magic is used; it's not a new discovery, so the brain can easily ignore it.

The gas manipulation of flight magic is based on this.

Now, instead of focusing on finding muscles, they consciously control the magic and disperse it away from the body surface.

This is like when you poop, there are a lot of indigestible plant fibers, and they are very tough and won't break, like a big cigar.

Because of the physical connection, you can feel the swaying of the large cigar.

Rudius had a friend in his previous life who preferred to use gravity to break things rather than using muscles to snap them.

That scene remained vivid in Rudius's memory.

You can think of a large cigar as a giant hair, an extension of the tactile sensation of a hair.

Ever since I had this feeling.

During his sword training, Rudius felt that the hairs on his body were over ten centimeters long.

This feeling is very strange.

During battle, Rudeus is completely covered in magic.

This allows skin that is not usually exposed to feel the sensation of a gentle breeze.

My face and hands are perfectly fine, of course, since they've been exposed all the time and I'm used to it.

But who can stand it when their buttocks are like that?

A gust of wind will make you instinctively want to squeeze tighter.

Fortunately, as long as the released magic power is controlled, it can be kept within an acceptable range.

The tactile extension process created by the outward release of magic gave Rudeus a sense of growth, as if his entire body's tactile sensations had been reactivated.

It was only a few years ago when he was a baby, and Rudius hadn't forgotten it yet.

At this moment, Rudius controlled the water flow to rotate while testing the tactile sensation with the breeze it created.

If more magic is applied, can the sense of touch be extended?

Can increasing the density of magic enhance the tactile sensation?

What if it's the other way around?

This thing is called body hair, but it's more like the super long, specialized body hair on animals.

Commonly seen whiskers resembling those of cats and dogs.

Those who are interested have probably also observed the body hairs covering the entire body of insects.

Honestly, this discovery alone is incredibly useful.

It gave Rudius the feeling that his efforts had not been in vain and had borne fruit.

This is the first time Rudius has received positive feedback after years of searching for muscle.

Moreover, this extension of tactile sensation is a super practical function certified by nature.

Sometimes, you can even disbelieve science, because the science you believe in might be wrong, and there are things that science hasn't figured out yet.

But you can't disregard millions of years of natural selection.

This is somewhat similar to that joke about nine generations of relatives.

Many phenomena in the world that science cannot yet explain have answers in nature.

Rudius felt it necessary to change this state, which was only activated during sword training, into a 24-hour routine.

Adapt to the newly developed sense of touch as quickly as possible.

This tactile sensation might even stimulate the brain to generate corresponding neural circuits, further enhancing the sensation.

Its current length of just over ten centimeters should be a great help in close combat, but Rudeus hasn't gotten used to it or made use of it yet.

If you can "sense the wind and determine the location", does that mean you can make a cup blindfolded?

If the length of the magic projection can be further increased, it might have some unexpected applications in flight magic.

After all, aren't bird feathers also a type of body hair?

If something as intangible as wind could be clearly perceived through touch, it must be of great help to flight itself.

Fluid mechanics is something that even AI can't fully understand. The optimal option would be to be able to directly perceive it and then let the brain and body process it.

Of course, the details of the magic projection still need to be adjusted, just like with flying magic, you can't let yourself suffocate.

For example, Rudius felt that even if his buttocks could get used to the sensation, they didn't need such high external sensitivity.

In sword training, it is natural to protect the person behind you; not turning your back to the enemy is common sense in combat.

I'm still young, and I don't even have any hair on my butt yet. I don't know when it will grow.
