Chapter 4 - Delay Time
After breakfast, Auran didn’t immediately jump into learning the new spells. He first ordered new furniture for his room. Although it cost him a few coins, it was a much-needed thing for him. After all, he couldn’t sit on the bed all the time.
Soon, a new table and chair appeared in his room, and closing the door tightly, Auran leaned on the comfy sofa and closed his eyes.
"Phew!
Here goes."
He reached out to the intuitional notebook in his mind, turned to the first page, and studied the first spell from the basic spells.
Named Delay, it was the spell he had casted before. Its effect was as simple as the name suggested—it reduced the speed of an object or substance in a specific direction of his choosing.
To use the spell, Auran first needed to draw the magic circle and connect with the time source to draw out the mana of time. Then, using the mana of time, he cast the spell of time delay above the surface of the magic circle.
The reason why the spell was cast above the mana circle was because it required the continuous support of time mana to work.
After reading the explanation, Auran understood why the previous Delay spell had suddenly failed.
