Chapter 3 Spell Overlay and Schizophrenia!

When the two children finished running and Megji returned to the manor arranged by Sophia, the moon had already risen. As soon as he entered the room, he saw the little fairy staring at him fiercely.

"Wait a minute," he was shocked. "I ran all day today, and my feet are sore. Can I take a break tonight and see you tomorrow night..."

"I can't." The little fairy refused without thinking.

No...

So, under the pressure of the little fairy, he had to start practicing magic immediately. Under the lead of a servant, he came to the magic training site arranged for him by Sophia, which was a space closed by a boundary. The space was so large that he didn't have to worry about affecting other people's rest.

"You look at the side first." The little fairy fell to the ground and slowly danced her magic wand. With a shout, a fireball flew out and exploded in front of her. Although Frey is the forest fairy who is the best at magic, their own bodies are not suitable for using magic, and so is the fireball in front of them. Although Megie's magic level is not high, his casual fireball is much more powerful than this.

"This fireball seems to be very ordinary." Meiji said.

"Of course, this is an ordinary fireball in itself." The little fairy said, "Look at this now."

She began to dance the magic wand again, with the same gesture and the same casting time. However, the fireball that exploded this time is not only much more powerful, but also lasts longer, and even causes much more damage to the ground.

"What's going on?" Meggie asked incomprehensiblely. Now that he remembers, when he was in the black crystal mine, the little fairy who borrowed his body and performed the power of stone collapse and fireball were also so great that surprised him. Obviously, it was the same spell, why did he use so much worse?

"Look carefully again." The little fairy did it again. This time, Meiji looked very seriously and didn't care about the sting of the dazzling firelight on his eyes.

"What do you see?" The little fairy asked.

"I seem to have seen three fireballs," Meiji was not sure. "When the first one exploded, the second one appeared, exploded in the same position, and then the third appeared again. But..." However, the little fairy only released a fireball. How could three fireballs appear in succession in the same position?

"You're right," said the little fairy. "This is the superposition of spells."

"How did you do it?" Meiji asked in surprise. He had never heard of the term spell superposition before, which is obvious. Even if this method is not invented by the little fairy himself, at least few people know it. It only takes the casting time of a spell to produce more than three times the effect, as long as not a fool knows what it means.

"First of all, I need to explain to you the theoretical system of this skill." The little fairy flew up, "In fact, this casting method was invented by my previous contractor, and it also involved some philosophical ideas."

It seems to be very complicated.

"You know, different races or different people will always have different world views. Just as we Free split the elements that make up the world into four types: water, fire, wind and earth, while the Noswell Church attributes everything to the Lord God. These worldviews have their own basis for existence. Although they are usually not compatible, no one can prove which one is the truth. This is the so-called 'faith'. The little fairy said.

... It's really complicated.

"That was decades ago," the little fairy continued. "My last contractor was a person whose goal was to pursue the ultimate magic. As his magic level improved step by step, he finally came to a dead end that was difficult to break through. He has learned the highest natural magic, and there is nothing more to learn, and he can't touch other magic such as dead spirits or spells because of the conflict with natural systems. Therefore, in order to further improve himself, he began to question the most basic magic theory.

"Sounds like a great person."

"Yes... he is a really powerful magician," the little fairy doesn't look happy. "It's not easy to find out the shortcomings of the magic system that has been passed down for hundreds of years, and it's even more difficult to solve these shortcomings. But he is such a brainless person, stubbornly feeling that there must be room for improvement. He read books, visited scholars in various fields, and finally found a way from a theorist's theory that could greatly improve the efficiency of casting.

"What is that theory?" Meiji asked.

"Actually, the theologian's theory is just a fantasy," the little fairy replied. "He is a supporter of the supremacy of theocracy, but he is also skeptical of the church's propaganda about the salvation of the Lord God. He believes that since the Lord God is a high existence, he will never easily set foot on this world, but let human beings' Review yourself by yourself.

"What do you mean?"

For example, a person did something bad, and many years later, he remembered what he had done and felt ashamed. At this time, he was actually reviewing himself. And the theologian believes that this censorship is ubiquitous. When you want to do something, at a spiritual level that you don't know, there is another 'you' holding the commandment given by the Lord God to examine your thoughts at this time. When that 'you' think you are thinking evil thoughts, it will pass. Interfere with your behavior at the spiritual level. This is the reason why some people give up because of hesitation before they put their bad thoughts into action. The little fairy said, "Of course, because people live in this vulgar world and are easily attracted by material and desires, they often decide to continue your evil deeds after hesitation. At this time, the 'you' who looks at you on high will gradually leave with the accumulation of your evil deeds, so that your soul will eventually These evil deeds fell into purgatory. Therefore, as long as you calm down and listen to another your voice, you will never make mistakes, because the one you convey is the will of the Lord God. If you give up listening, then as the other you go away, you will not be able to distinguish between good and evil and eventually be abandoned by the Lord God. This is the theologian's theory.

"What a strange idea." Meiji yawned.

"Well, although this theory sounds interesting, it is actually just a fantasy." The little fairy said, "But it was this fantasy that made my previous contractor find inspiration. Can dividing a person's soul into two 'me', or even three 'me' and four 'me', double the efficiency of casting?

"What do I think it's schizophrenia?" Meiji muttered.

"No," said the little fairy, "in fact, in reality, many people did this, but they didn't know it themselves. For example, you reach out to get something, but in your mind, it is likely that you are also judging the action of reaching out your hand. Is it dangerous to take this thing? Will it be poisonous? According to the theologian's theory, this can be interpreted as two of you appearing at this moment, one is you reaching for something, and the other is you who makes a dangerous judgment on your action of taking things.

"However, magic requires mental concentration. If you do that, you will be distracted. I'm afraid it will reduce the efficiency of casting, right?"

"Therefore, the spell superposition requires more strict concentration on the magician," the little fairy said. "In fact, in the whole process of casting spells, both mental and physical must be consistent, just like the fireball technique just now, there should be no mistake in the middle. But the moment I stretched my finger forward, the whole casting process was actually completed. All that needed was 'trigger', and the trigger did not require concentration. Therefore, if you can divide your spiritual power into two, treat it as two 'you' and keep the synchronization of the two 'you' throughout the casting process, but separate the two 'you' at the moment of triggering, so that you can complete two exactly the same magics at the same time in one casting time. "

"It's still wrong," Meiji shouted. "Even if it really succeeds, what's the difference between this and dividing a large sand pile into two small sand piles?"

"There is a difference," the little fairy flew to him, "Meggie, do you remember that we faced the skeleton army at the same time that day? At that time, I was providing the magic needed by two bodies at the same time, one is yours and the other is lemon. The flow of magic is like a tide. Do you know how the tide hits the beach? The first spray rushed to the beach, hit the rock, retreated, and then the second spray could accumulate strength to rush to the beach again. This process of retreating is the process of re-sizing the water, but if the same you are divided into two halves, the spell is cast simultaneously, and then triggered separately, it is like the process of letting the tide accumulate power only once. When the first wave hits the rock, the second wave immediately jumps up and continues to hit the same part of the rock. And the third and fourth followed closely, so that no matter how strong the rock is, it will be smashed.

Meggie's eyes finally lit up: "However, although this method sounds reasonable, it doesn't seem easy to do."

"Yes, even my previous contractor took three years to master it at that time."

"Three years..." Meiji almost wanted to turn around and leave.

"Don't worry, groping by yourself and being taught by someone are two different things, aren't you?" The little fairy knocked his head with a magic wand. "What's more, you have experienced the experience of being two different people. At the beginning, you might as well imagine that there are two different people in the same body, one is lemon and the other is Meiji, and then let these two people try to use the same magic."

It is also said that there will be no schizophrenia...
