Chapter 47: Ice Giant (Ch 47)

Noah thought for a moment and said to them:

“Do you know what a strong force needs most?”

“What is it?”

“It is the foundation. Only a sufficient foundation can support sufficient strength.

I have thousands of books at home, and I have read them all. I have also read most of the books in the guild. This is the foundation of my knowledge.

And I exercise my body and magic power every day. You also know Urrutia’s symptoms.

She had problems because her magic power was stronger than her body, which shows that physical fitness is a particularly important factor.”

Noah picked up the water cup beside him and took a sip of water, then continued:

“Since I started learning magic, I have been reading books, exercising, and training my magic power every day without interruption. Until now, I have only been learning various kinds of magic.

You haven’t been learning magic for a year or two yet, so lay a solid foundation first before talking about other things. Don’t forget the foundation, because your foundation determines your strength.”

Gray and Leo both looked thoughtful after listening to this. After all, what Noah said made sense since he was so powerful.

And there is indeed a library in Noah’s house, which contains various books on magical protection, and there are also many reading notes next to them, proving that Noah reads books frequently and was still reading just now.

As for physical strength, after seeing Noah and Deliora fighting each other, they never thought that Noah’s physical fitness would be poor.

The magic power is even more shocking, and the beam of light that reaches the sky and the earth explains everything.

Seeing that they had some understanding, Noah continued to read his magic book.

After Ulu finished taking a shower with the girls, the boys also went in to take a shower, then said good night to each other and went to bed.

After getting up and having breakfast the next day, Uru planned to teach his disciples and Noah the ice shaping magic first.

Since they were going to the snowy mountains, Erza and the other three separated from Noah and went to train in the place where they usually trained.

Noah took Ulu and four others to the nearby snow-capped mountains.

Once they arrived, Uru, Gray, and Leo began to take off their clothes, leaving only their boxers and underwear.

Urrutia was stunned when she saw her mother and fellow apprentices like this. Noah approached her and said earnestly:

“Don’t follow their example. Gray and Leo already have a habit of unconsciously taking off their clothes anytime and anywhere.”

Urrutia nodded desperately. After Urrutia and the others took off their clothes, they said to Noah and the others:

“If you want to understand ice, you have to touch it directly, so you should be exposed to the cold wind as much as possible. You should come with us.”

Noah shook his head. “I don’t need that. I’m here to learn modeling. I don’t need strong ice skills.”

Urrutia also hid behind Noah and shook his head desperately. Seeing this, Uru had to give up and let them take off their clothes.

Everyone started basic training. Leo didn’t care much about the basic training at first, but when he saw Noah was also training the basics, what Noah said last night came to his mind again. Even a powerful wizard like Noah was training the basics, so he could only follow suit.

Noah saw that their training intensity was a bit low, so he included everyone in the gravity magic, except for Urrutia.

Leo and Gray were pinned to the ground and unable to move, but Uru only needed a little time to adapt before he could move freely.

“Look at you. Your physical fitness is too low. Erza is better than you. She has also just started learning magic, but her body is much stronger than yours. At least under the same gravity, she can move freely.”

After hearing this, Gray and Leo were very unconvinced and tried desperately to stand up.

After several efforts, he finally stood up tremblingly. His legs were shaking as he stood there. Noah kindly advised:

“If you can’t do it, don’t go on. Look, your legs are shaking.”

“No…nothing’s wrong. We’re fine.” Leo’s teeth were chattering.

“It’s…it’s, we’re fine.” The Gray people were trembling.

Noah ignored them and divided the gravity magic into three ranges. His own gravity was the strongest, Uru’s was second, and Gray and the others were the weakest. Then he began his physical exercise.

Uru also started exercising after gradually adapting, and notified Gray and Leo who were convenient for guidance to start exercising.

Urrutia was doing some basic, moderate exercises according to Noah’s instructions.

When Noah saw that Gray and Leo were about to collapse, he lifted the gravity magic, and the two of them fell to the ground on the snow, gasping for breath.

“Well, we really need to improve our physical fitness.” Uru began to help his disciples plan their future paths. When Noah is around, they can use his gravity magic for training, with significant effects.

After resting for a while, Uru began to teach Gray and the others the ice shaping magic.

After Noah’s diagnosis, Urrutia was able to receive magic training, so Urrutia also began to learn ice shaping magic.

Gray and his friends continued to practice and learn basic magic, while Noah focused on learning modeling, learning how to make ice change into the shape he wanted according to his own ideas.

Uru passed on all his knowledge of modeling to Noah without reservation. At the same time, because he used ice modeling magic to explain, Uru’s insights into ice were also passed on to Noah.

This benefited Noah a lot. In just a dozen days, he could clap his hands and an ice giant several dozen meters high, with a clear face and stable structure stood on the ground. Noah stood on the top of the ice giant, and the face of the ice giant was exactly Noah himself.

The ice giant bent his waist and stood up straight, punched forward twice, and the strong wind blew the snow all over the sky.

The Uru family who were watching nearby had different feelings after seeing the ice giant.

“Are we learning the same magic as him? I remember we learned it first.” Gray scratched his hair hard to get rid of the snowflakes on his head, very confused.

“I learned it before him, but…” Leo didn’t know what to say. He didn’t even pay attention to the snowflakes on his head. He was hit hard.

Leo’s dream is to surpass Uru one day, so he keeps working hard. But seeing Noah using the same magic and rapidly approaching Uru’s level in just ten days, this is a big blow to him.

“There are geniuses in this world, and Noah is probably one of them. You don’t have to compare yourself with them. Just be better than you were the day before.”

Uru was comforting her and she drove away the snowflakes that flew in front of her. She herself was filled with shock and incomprehension.

Anyone would be upset if he saw that the magic he had studied for many years was understood, learned and applied by others in just a dozen days.
