Mars checked his spells and all that was listed was the spell he could cast, and that it was tier 0. Underneath the skill name was details of his unspent skill points.

Mars did not know what to do from here, and he decided he would ask Orlilin after all. Since it was reasonably late now, Mars decided to have a good night's sleep first.
Mars woke up the next day and felt well-rested. The sun was already shining Orlilin and Mars both slept in as Wizards tended to. Deep sleep and a belly full of food were required to replenish mana.
Orlilin greeted Mars with a bow. "Good morning, my precious pupil!" She smiled warmly and looked out the window at the hulking young man outside. "Your cousin, although not as rare as yourself, seems to hold some talent himself."
Hagar had woke up early and was swinging his ax outside and practicing for when he met Aze again. His movements were crude, it was apparent to anyone watching, but Hagar's large frame gave him innate power. Even in his hometown of Skagi, where the famously large Humans hailed from, he was considered colossal.
"Before we begin training, I would ask that you speak with your cousin. He shows promise as a warrior, and I will have him grow strong alongside you."
Orlilin explained to Mars that she would have Hagar train with an old warrior acquaintance of hers inside the city limits just a few kilometers away. She knew the other High Elves would most likely look down their noses at Hagar, but they would not deny his "built like a brick shithouse" build.
"Let's not interrupt him right now though, that boy seems to be getting his anger out." Mars agreed and responded.
Orlilin and Mars ate breakfast, which was a strange thing Mars had never seen before. A Bagel with bacon egg and cheese. Orlilin explained that these delicious breakfast sandwiches were one of Ozen Raw's gifts to the planet in recent years.
After Orlilin had tried one, she had crafted a spell to create Bacon Egg and Cheese sandwiches. She was the only person who could cast this spell, Kings of nations could not enjoy these new delights as of yet. Mars asked her to show him how she cast this spell.
"It's easy for me, but don't expect to be able to copy it. Even though it's a 0 tier spell." Orlilin simply chanted " Create BACON BREAKFAST SANDWICH!" in great delight, and another one appeared wrapped in a paper. In front of her. The sandwich was warm, and they figured Hagar would enjoy it.
The screen appeared and displayed.

Mars attempted and said the same chant, unexpectedly, his breakfast sandwich also appeared, but it was cold and had no paper wrapping. Orlilin could not believe her eyes; Mars only knew one other spell but could learn incredibly quickly.
Orlilin attempted to hide her surprise from Mars, but she was unable. She had begun breathing heavily. She was genuinely giddy with the thoughts of a finally worthy student.
They went outside as Orlilin decided she would see if he could learn a slightly higher level but the far more common spell "Magic Missile." First, they gave Hagar the extra Breakfast sandwich Orlilin had created.
"Woah Thankyou!" Hagars eyes grew wide as he bit into the sandwich while looking at it with amazement. The most delicious morning snack he'd ever had, gone in an instant. "Mars, where did you guys get this!?" Hagar's mood of revenge seemed to disappear at the taste of this delicious breakfast snack. He was in temporary euphoria.
"Well, that's a spell that Orlilin here, has taught me. Mind you; mine comes out uncooked." Mars still felt pride that he was the only person who could even copy her spell.
Orlilin Raised her right hand and chanted "Magic Missile" in elvish, and three bright blue orbs began to form and then shot in the direction of a tree.
Bam! Boom! Bam!
Bark and wood exploded the instant the blue orbs made contact.
The screen appeared and displayed.

Mars Raised his hand and spoke the words in English this time.
"Magic Missile!" The same three blue orbs began to form and shot forth simultaneously upon a tree nearby the one that Orlilin had struck.
Bam! Boom! Bam!
Orlilin was dumbfounded, and she was no longer able to hide her excitement at all as she emitted a high pitched squeal.
"Amazing Mars! Simply amazing!" Orlilin was clapping her hands as she danced around.
Hagar was also impressed, and with a mouth full of bacon and cheese, he hollered, "Woah Mawz! Amawzing!" chunks of food flung out of his mouth.
Orlilin's head was spinning at the scene playing out before her.
"Well, Mars, let's see if you can learn this one as well! I will be casting a 2nd Tier spell, so it may be harder this time." She breathed in a deep breath of air and chanted the words in Elvish.
"Alter Self" Blue light whirled around her until the area around her was bright blue, and when the lights dispersed, standing in front of Mars was a replica of his cousin Hagar.

Mars was impressed with her spell and decided to try it out for himself. He chanted "Alter Self," and just as Orlilin had done, the lights also enveloped Mars.
Orlilin watched in amazement as this child could seemingly learn any spell that was shown to him immediately, and he could learn languages with ease as well. Just when she thought he could amaze her no further, the lights disappeared, and before Orlilin's very eyes, Ozen Raw appeared.
The fake Ozen, Mars, began to speak.
"So, I can change into anyone!? By the way, Orlilin this is the woman who gave me this life, do you know who she is?"
"O-o-OZEN RAW!?!? You met the Goddess of our Universe?!?"
