Chapter 348 348 Show And Tell



Once that was finished, the sense of power radiating from it faded into the background, and it stopped giving off any more sense of danger than a regular magical sword would.

That was the advantage of all defensive spells. They didn\'t have the aura of threat that an offensive spell did, so you could stack much more powerful inscriptions together without creating an aura that would draw monsters and other Witches to it.

"And that is a complete airplane. I suppose that we have some time for questions if you want?" Wolfe offered.

"That defensive spell array, There is a Lightning Magic-based defensive spell at the base and an Air Magic spell that I think is supposed to help the plane fly when it\'s active, but what is the third layer?" One of the students asked.

"That is a Gravity Magic Array that works much like the Air Array does. The Air spells send the wind over the wings to lift the plane as if it was moving much faster, which will actually slow the plane down but can let you lift off the ground in a nearly vertical fashion using only the propellor for minimal forward motion.

The Gravity array is focused in front of the plane, creating a gravity well so that when it is in effect, the plane will fly toward the spell as if it were falling to the ground.

That lets it fly much faster without using much more additional mana. A low-powered Gravity Array like that only draws a minuscule amount of mana, but the effect that it has on its surroundings is quite pronounced in this situation.

Here, see for yourselves."

Wolfe cast the array, which only generated half of the standard Gravity, in front of the students and saw them all lean forward before righting themselves.

"Now, would someone like to make a jump forward? You will see the extra effect that it has on forward motion in the air, and it will be easier for everyone to visualize the effects that the spell will have on an airplane." He requested.

One of the girls gave a leap forward and sailed nearly three metres before landing as the spell pulled her through the air.

"You\'re right. It feels a bit like you\'re falling, but it is not enough to completely throw off your balance. That would save so much mana compared to running or flying regularly. Do you use that on your flying brooms in the Fae Forest?" She asked.

Cassie smiled at her and shook her head. "No, we use the spell differently on the flying staves. Instead of a focal point, we use it to propel the staff in the desired direction. That way, there is less interaction with other objects around them, so you don\'t make a mess of everyone\'s papers as you fly by."

"How cool are your flying staves? I always wanted to fly." One of the other girls called out.

"Well, we didn\'t bring ours, but Headmistress Peach has one that she was given as a gift for her advancement, so if you ask her nicely, she might show you," Cassie told her with a wink.

The Headmistress intimidated most of the students even before she advanced. Most of them wouldn\'t have the courage to walk up and ask her about frivolous things at this point.

"Wait, I\'m going for a walkabout with Wolfe, so we might as well make another one since I didn\'t bring mine. It will come in handy in the swamps." Ella suggested.

"Seriously? That would be so cool." The student cheered while the Professor sighed.

She had a huge amount of teaching material to go over to explain all the spells they had put on the plane, and she only understood half of them, so adding all the spells that they would put on a flying staff would distract the students from the core curriculum for ages.

"First up, we put a pair of witch magic charms on it. [Horrific Visage] and [Binding Vines] Ella explained after growing a gnarled staff in her hand with Witch Magic.

"Oh, we know those ones. Everyone learns them in the second year." The students cheered, happy to see something they knew for a change.

"Then we added a Lightning Array for built-in attack ability," Wolfe added, showing them all the array in the air before he settled it into the staff.

The students gasped and made notes as he held it in the air while the teacher did her best to memorize it, knowing that she would be asked about it later.

It was a tough day to be a teacher at the Academy since these three were showing off spells that nobody in the school had seen before, and likely not a single Witch in the City knew how to cast.

But even the Professors were learning a lot as Wolfe shaped the Array to the gnarled wood. They had never considered that before. They had always made a flat spot for the Arrays and applied them exactly as they were intended to be drawn.

"Then we add on this flying spell, which is quite similar to the one on the airplane, followed by an armour spell. Once those are set, we finish up by growing a Mana crystal in the staff and charging it." Ella explained, pausing to show everyone what Wolfe was doing before Cassie grew the crystal in the staff.

Cassie looked around the students, who were admiring the staff and taking notes. Other than the Lightning Array, which was pretty complex, and the Gravity Magic, which they couldn\'t use without having it drawn by a Demon for them, they had a pretty good idea of how to do the rest. The flight spells were way more advanced than the ones in the textbook as well, so it would really help their dreams of flying.

"Why don\'t we just enchant ourselves with Air Magic?" One of the students asked.

"Just don\'t. Unless you want the Faeries to laugh at you, that is. Witches look horribly awkward flying without an object, and the Fae find it hilarious." Wolfe explained, making Cassie and Ella laugh at the memory.
