Next morning I again went to Marylin's place so that we could continue our lessons; yesterday she taught me about mana and all that stuff, but today she is going to teach me about elements,

There are four main types of elements for mages to use:

Fire

Water

Earth

Wind

Light

Each of those elements has a higher version of itself; mages capable of using those are referred to as "advanced mages." There are several types of elemental advancements.

"Ruu, tell me, which are the basic elements?" Marylin asked me as she adjusted her glasses: "Today, for some reason, she wore glasses; she told me that gives her a little more of a teacher vibe."

"Fire, water, earth, and wind—these are the basic elements," I answered, and already I can predict her next question,

"That's all?" Instead, she asked me, anticipating that I would give her the full answer.

I won't tell her about light since it's not yet discovered. The hero is going to be the one to discover that light can also be manipulated, so it's not good if I tell her about it.

"There are also some higher versions of these elements, like ice, magma, gravity, lightning, etc.; those are called advancements, and no normal mage can use advanced elements." I said cynically,

Upon hearing my answer, Marylin nodded to herself like she liked my answer, "That's right, now look carefully." Marylin said as she slowly twirled her index finger in the air and indicated to me to look behind my back with her eyes,

"?" I turned my head in the direction where Marylin was looking, and there were some bookshelves on the wall with some complicated-looking books,

Cluck

Soon, a book from a nearby shelf started floating in the midst of the air like a weightless feather. Slowly, the book flew in our direction.

"That's gravitational magic, right?" "So you're an Earth elemental mage." I said as I saw Marylin's hand reaching towards the floating book.

"to think she was an Earth elemental," in the game her attributes were never mentioned, so I didn't know,

Gravitational magic is the advanced form of Earth magic; only a person who is an Earth elemental mage can manipulate gravity.

"Yep, surprised?" Marylin asked. To her, it seemed like my reaction was normal.

"Yeah, a little bit." I was a little surprised since it's not common for a human to have an earth element manifestation.

A majority of Earth elemental mages are Dwarves; it runs in their bloodline since they have a special connection with land; next to them would be the Elves; humans have very little possibility of manifesting the Earth element.

"Now look carefully." Marylin said as she gently placed the book on the nearby side table. She stood up from her place and then,

Zooop

"How's that?  "You must have never imagined this, right?" Marylin asked as she watched me from above, likely enjoying herself.

"The hell." I was in a daze; I had never dreamt of this happening, and I darted off my seat because of the surprise.

"That's not the response I expected," Marylin looked down at me from above. She had a big smile plastered all over her face followed by a smug look.

Right now, she is in the middle of the air, floating like some kind of bubble. Tiny, windy tornadoes were around her, making it easier for her to balance herself in the air.

The ceiling is not so high; she is like six feet above the ground.

"So Marylin, are you a dual elemental, or is there more to it?" I asked a little early.

She first showed me that she can control rare Earth elements, and then she immediately showed me that she can also control wind attributes, telling me that she can control multiple elements, and THAT'S A BIG THING.

"Nope,that's all.  "I am a dual-elemental mage who can control earth and wind, and one advancement that is gravity," Marylin said as she slowly descended back to her original place; not a single thing in the room was disturbed in this whole event.

Normally, using wind attributes can get messy since it involves the wind mana in your surrounding atmosphere.

"Now, get back to your place; there's something I want you to show me," Marylin said.

'What does she want me to show her?" I thought as I sat back on my seat,

"Ren, what is your elemental manifestation?" Marylin asked me,

"It's inferno,fire." I said, "I am a single fire elemental mage with no advancements and a large mana pool, and after seeing Marylin do all that stuff, it's kind of depressing."

"Form a fist-sized fire ball." Marylin said,

"Huh?" I was a little baffled,

"From a fireball, now." Marylin said in a more authoritative tone, like almost ordering me to do what she said, but who's going to tell her that I haven't used a single speck of magic since coming to this world, so it's hard for me if she just asks me to use a spell out of the blue?

"Oh, okay." I agreed since I have to do it now or later anyways and it's better to have Marylin here as an invigilator,

Fuu

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, focusing on the place where my sternum is, into my mana core. I slowly led my mana from the core to adjacent mana veins; these are special veins that distribute mana from the core to all over the body, helping to circulate the mana throughout the body.

The mana leisurely flowed towards my clavicle, then down to the humerus and to my wrist, giving me slight goosebumps.

Soon, Mana reached for the palm and waited for further instructions.

I pictured the desired shape and size of a fireball in my mind then.

Fushhh

"Done," I said as I opened my eyes and looked at my palm, where a fist-sized fire ball was blazing brilliantly,
