Elemental Magic

Lilia returned to the inn and immediately threw herself onto the bed, she felt fatigued.

She felt her body crumbled, her buttocks aching, maybe because she had been sitting in the carriage too long, she was also sitting narrowly with the goods.

"I will find a better carriage in the future!"

Still, she was fortunate enough to meet the carriage when she was lost, she cannot feel discontented with her own luck.

Lilia closed her eyes but after ten minutes passed she could not yet enter the dreamland. She gets up and sniffed her own body-- no wonder she cannot fall asleep, her body is stink and sticky with sweat as she needed to take a bath.

She hadn't touched water for several days except for a drink. Most mages don't pay too much attention to bathing as they have their own magic to clean themselves but it's feels strange to not bathe with water, especially for Lilia.

She undressed and went straight into the bathroom. This cheap inn doesn't provide hot water for the lodgers, but that is not a problem for Lilia, she can heat the water with her magic. Seriously, magic makes things easier!

Lilia entered the bathtub, the warmth of water permeated her body as if all the fatigue she had received melted gradually. She felt really warm and comfortable.

Then, she accidentally saw her reflection from a pool of water. Previously, she had not had time to see her features after transmigrated. Although she inherited the previous's host memory and know well how she looks like, even so, she still wants to inspect it personally.

After seeing it, she felt quite satisfied, "Not bad, this face more beautiful than hers"

The previous host's face is beautiful but not excessively beautiful, it's enough to surprise a man upon seeing her real face under the cloak. However, the most striking thing from her features is her pair of eyes. It has a blue sapphire color, so clear and beautiful.

...

After bathing Lilia didn't go to sleep, instead, she immediately put on her cloak and left the inn. Maybe being bathed in hot water made her have no desire to sleep anymore.

She went to the mountain behind the town, finding a place to train.

Ever since she came into this world, she was very interested in magic. However, as she practiced it every day, she realized that she could not make any improvement at all.

"What happened to me? do I really have no talent?" Lilia confused.

Basically, she can use every magic from basic elements such as water, fire, earth, wind, and wood. It's just that the magic she created is only in small scale and non-durable, moreover, the power is weak.

It's no wonder that 'Liliana' has been trapped in an F-Rank Mage for a year, it's not entirely because she is incompetent but also the factor she can't improve her magic. Since her magic was unreliable, she can only rely on her rune mastery to complete the quests.

Even so, Lilia will never be discouraged, she will definitely find a way to improve her magic.

After six hours Lilia experimented and analyzed every magic she created, by then she finally found out that there was one magic that had an improvement in those hours.

It is water elemental magic.

"Did my magic have an affinity with the water element? doesn't that mean my magic is an Elemental Magic type?"

Lilia couldn't help muse on, is this the reason why she can't improve her others magic?

According to memories she inherited from 'Liliana', there are three main classifications of Magic: Caster Magic, Holder Magic, and Ancient Magic.

Caster Magic is Magic that is expelled from the body as opposed to Magic done through the use of a weapon or outside source.

Holder Magic is Magic that requires a Mage to use an external source to produce the Magic. It usually requires the use of Magic Power.

Ancient Magic is Magic from ancient times. This type of Magic that has been obliterated from the history of the world due to their immense power and the sheer gravity of their side effects on the users. However, users of such Magic still exist, though the Magic itself is believed to be extremely rare.

Meanwhile, Elemental Magic is the subcategory of Caster Magic. Knowing that she is one of this type of magic, she wasn't sure how should she reacted.

Fundamentally, Elemental Magic is only normal magic, such as water, fire, wood, wind, and earth-- these were the basic elements of magic.

Originally, ever since she was still a child, 'Liliana' was regarded as an untalented girl. She was born in a noble family but couldn't inherit the family's talent. She always thought maybe she had a fate with Ancient Magic like her elder sister but the facts prove that she overestimated herself.

'Liliana' has no talent in Magic Caster or Ancient Magic, she can only rely on Magic Treasures to boost her strength. However, one day she decided to run away from her family and bring nothing but her life.

After she ran away from home and arrived on this continent, she learned many things.

She learned there's are many mages that can prominently rise even without having a high talent of magic. There is a fire mage who initially only an insignificant mage with a normal fire elemental magic, later he became a legendary figure in this continent and known as Fire Emperor.

There's also Sage Valance, he was a free mage without support and resource of guild yet can still stand above all of earth elemental mages.

Also, Unlimited Treasure Fairy is Holder-Magic Mage who relies on her unlimited Magic Treasure to dominated the continent.

In her guild also have a renowned figure Rune Master, A-Rank Mage, Gary Saland. He has no talent in casting magic, but he is extremely talented in Rune Magic. What most outstanding traits about him that he is a solo mage. When many mages who don't have high magic talent formed a team in order to increase their rank, Gary Saland was different, he relies on his Rune Magic to climb up from F-Rank Mage to A-Rank Mage as a solo mage.

That was such amazing feet! even 'Liliana' couldn't help to admire him.

All of those figure's achievements are has nothing to do with high magic talent, it's about perseverance and hard work. They must work hard to increase their strength and be able to endure so many hardships to the way of the peak.

Having heard all of them, 'Liliana' believed that as long as she worked hard and perseverance enough at least she would have a bit of fame in the guild.

'Liliana' however seems like to have a misconception about working hard and perseverance.

She was indeed working hard and able to endure many things, but she only placed it on the quests and not her strength.

In point of view of Lilia, the previous host is stupid beyond the words. Having clear that she lacks the magic talent she not only didn't want to train it diligently but she also totally give up on it. No wonder she wasn't aware that she has a bit of talent in water element magic.

"Sigh... at least I can practice magic!"

"Even if it only water element magic, it's fine. I will train it properly, who knows maybe someday I'll become those legendary figures"

She was by no means to compare herself with those legendary figures, everything begins with a dream while dream will come true as long there's hope.

She is still young, still not too late to dream and create hope for herself.

The road to success is still far too long for her.

Even if she can't reach the peak, she wouldn't regret it because she had given her best at least she will have the strength to protect herself in this new world.
