Chapter 499 Mastering magic circles

It had been three days since Amon started reading the books on magic circles. He learned a lot from them about magic circles.

First was the proper definition of magic circles: they serve as a visual representation of mana manipulation, the very essence of sorcery.

Every mage needed to know them; without them, no mage was considered a proper mage.

The next thing he learned was that magic circles were also of different types. Often, a combination of different types was used to cast a spell.

The first type was called Basic Circles; they are the foundation of magical practice. They are simple in design and serve as the starting point for novice mages.

The second type was advanced circles. As mages progress in their studies, they delve into more complex design. These circles require a deeper understanding of mana control and spellcasting.

The third type was called elemental circles. Some magic circles are attuned to specific elements. Mastery of these circles allows the caster to harness elemental forces.

The fourth type was called dark circles. They were usually called sinister and associated with evil magic and forbidden spells. They sometimes require sacrifice in exchange for greater power.

He also learned the variations in the magic circles according to shapes.

Squares were used for summoning.

Loops or rings were used for shooting or accelerating magic.

Tape-shaped and ring-shaped, Ring-shaped but with more width, were used to transform the area.

This was just the beginning; there came a form of magic circle after it. This depends on the magic system followed by the user.

A proper circle with multiple concentrated rings containing square and triangular shapes was the most common. It contained runic words in the corner.

The second type was called the Belkan Triangle. It was a magic circle with a triangle at the base and four circles placed on it. Three were at the edges, while at the center, the outer circles contained runic words.

The third form was called an elemental pentagram. This had a pentagram at the base with its pointy side at the top. Inside, it was a five-sided star with its top inlined with the top side of the pentagram.

Rishi started his practice by understanding the intent. Magic circles are not mere drawings; they represent the caster\'s intentions.

It required high focus on the desired outcome of the spell and infusing it into the circle. This was very hard for most of the mages, but it was a cakewalk for Rishi.

Next was mathematical precision: Mages must perform intricate mathematical calculations within the circles. This required research and practice.

Rishi practiced it for some hours before he could easily do it.

After mastering it, it was time for him to focus on visualization. This was very important for the mages; it required the ability to sense and manipulate mana.

This was also easy for him due to his passive mana sensitivity and mana heart; he still practiced it for some hours to not make any mistakes later.

After learning about the visualization, he had to learn about the use of Runic symbols; he had to make sure which symbol he used. Each symbol, curve, and pattern can carry a personal message. This was to enhance the connection to the magic circle.

At last, there were runic symbols; they were similar to runes. He had to study them to learn them, but it was not hard for him to master them.

Each runic symbol had a different meaning and purpose. It was similar to giving instructions to it.

He now had to practice the whole process and create magic circles. This looked easy, but he struggled for some time.

Even a tiny mistake could destroy the whole circle; this was different from learning a spell, which was created by using a magic circle and simplified.

He kept practicing, and with time, he improved, but this took way longer than he had initially expected; it was already four days before he could get used to creating magic circles.

But he was not satisfied; he took his time and practiced for three more days to master it.

This was the first step; he now had knowledge and experience of creating magic circles. What came next was planning which type of magic circle he would create.

Rishi thought for many hours and finally devised its form, structure, and shapes.

He was going to use the Belkan Magic Circle, but in the modern version, two triangles were the base.

They were used to create a star design. In this magic circle, seven circles were used. Six are at the edges of both triagles, with the last one at the center.

He first drew it on the paper, and he wrote each runic symbol carefully. This took him some time, as he had to decide which type of symbol he would use.

After he was done, what came next was to master this circle. This magic circle was an expert-level magic circle. Only an expert spellcaster would be able to create it.

He kept trying, but he found that it had many errors. He kept scratching his head, but these were very hard for him to solve.

Instead of trying to keep hitting his head on the wall, he decided to seek the help of an expert.

He visited Vinay; it was not hard to find him as his room was next to him. After Vinay learned that he had shifted to the next floor, he also followed suit.

\'Kcock\' \'knock\'

Vinay came out yawning; dark circles could be seen in his eyes. He was struggling to even open his eyes. He looked at Rishi, and his anger loosened up.

He invited him inside.

Rishi looked at him for some time before asking, "What have you been doing?"

"Nothing, just practicing some hard spells. I was focused on learning them and didn\'t sleep for the past eight days."

"You could have taken some breaks; it\'s not as if someone is waiting behind you with a stick in hand," said Rishi, mocking Vinay.

But to his surprise, a sad expression appeared on Vinay\'s face. He controlled his tears by replying. "My situation is something similar."

Rishi looked at him with a confused expression on his face. It took him some time before he was able to guess what might have happened.

A slight smile appeared on his face. He wanted to laugh but controlled himself. He patted his back, sympathizing with him, but the moment he felt a chill around Vinay, he moved back, retracting his hand.

\'Sorry, Bro, you need to deal with this problem by yourself.\'

\'Cough\'

He cleared his throat before taking out a piece of paper and showing it to Vinay.

Vinay looked at it in confusion. It had a diagram of a very advanced magic circle.

"Why are you showing me this?"

"It has many errors; can you solve them for me?" asked Richi politely.

"No, I can\'t," replied Vinay with a sad expression.

Rishi looked at him in confusion.

"See, Rishi, I don\'t have this level of mastery in creating magic circles. I rarely use them. It would be better if you took help from a professor."

"Which Professor? Do you know someone who is an expert at it?" he asked.

"Why don\'t you seek help from Professor Amrita?"

"Who is she?"

"She is the one that stopped the fight when we were facing multiple participants."
