To be honest, Leo was indeed having a problem on how to convert the Pure Mana on his hand into a Mana with a specific Element. It was really unlike his own way of absorbing Element Mana, in forming his Elementals too.
Leo was used to absorbing the specific rich Element Mana in the surrounding when forming a specific Elemental in his consciousness, unlikely to casting Magic spells where he actually needed to convert the Mana into a specific Element, Mana, that his Magic spell needed in order to be cast.
"Everyone that had failed to complete step 2 might wonder, why am I unable to convert the Pure Mana into an Element Mana? Simply put, you need to learn first the property of each Element Mana before you are able to successfully convert the Pure Mana into an Element Mana!" Teacher Marvin said as he put his hand up in front before casting a Fire spell.
"Flame!"
A flame quickly appeared on teacher Marvin's hand.
"To convert a Pure Mana into a Fire Mana, you need to make the Pure Mana you have gathered on your hands into a really active state Pure Mana, which would then create heat within them. This active state is the property of a Fire Mana." Teacher Marvin explained as he quickly changes the red Magic circle into a blue Magic circle.
"To convert a Pure Mana into a Water mana, you need to make the Pure Mana into a soft state, which is the property of a Water Mana..." Teacher Marvin explained, then he began explaining all the property of other Elements.
"To convert into an Earth mana, you need to make it into a Hard state, which is the property of an Earth Mana. To convert into a Nature Mana, you need to make it into an alive state, which is the property of a Nature Mana. To convert into a Wind Mana, you need to make it into a flexible state, which is the property of a Wind Mana...." Teacher Marvin continued on as he keeps on changing the color of the Magic circle on his hand to each of the different Element.
While teacher Marvin was explaining, Leo at the same time was also quickly starting to convert the Pure Mana the same way as to how the former had explained. Just by following what was explained, he was slowly able to convert the Pure Mana into a Fire Mana.
"I can finally summon a Fire Elemental!" Leo thought to himself. Since forming an Elemental needed a specific Element Mana, then with this Fire Mana on his hand, he would be able to finally form a Fire Elemental.
However...
Leo immediately began absorbing the Fire Mana he had converted to his consciousness. Contrary to his expectations, though, he wasn't actually able to form a Fire Elemental. He actually was able to, but he was only able to form the Fire Elemental's lower body before it quickly vanished from his consciousness.
"Ha?" Leo became dubious as to why he was unable to finish forming his Fire Elemental. He quickly focused again as he tried to convert the Pure Mana on his hand into a Fire Mana before he began absorbing it through his right palm, again. However, it was still the same as what had happened on his first try. He could only form the lower body of the Fire Elemental.
Leo wanted to continue trying, but teacher Marvin suddenly started explaining something again, which immediately interrupted his focus on his current dilemma.
"Take note; not every mage, after turning the Pure Mana into an Element Mana, can immediately be able to cast a Magic spell. You need to always keep in your mind that all the Magic spells needed a different amount of Element Mana in order to be successfully cast by you. And a Mage also has a limited amount of Pure Mana that their body can absorb, so you will be unable to cast magic spells that are above your own limit." Teacher Marvin explained, which immediately made the majority of the students embarrassed.
To be honest, the majority of them had actually thought of casting powerful Magic spells just after being able to convert the Pure Mana into an Element Mana. Some people had even thought of casting a Lightning spell, Magma spell, and other powerful Magic spells that they had thought.
Just with teacher Marvin's explanation, Leo's problem was finally answered. The reason that he can't form a Fire Elemental was simply because it was above his limit. It was reasonable though since a Fire Elemental was such a destructive Elemental, hence naturally it also needs a lot of Fire Mana in order to successfully form. If he can indeed summon such a powerful Elemental, then he would surely be destroying the balance of the Celestial World.
Leo had also realized something really important too, "If I'm able to raise the capacity of Pure Mana that my body can handle, then will that also allow me to summon more Elementals?"
Thinking about such thoughts, Leo immediately became excited as he swore to himself that he will use the remaining six large Mana stones that he had found as soon as possible. If he could raise the absorption limit of his body, then he will be able to summon more Elementals to aid him in earning points. He might even be able to form an army made out of different Elementals.
"Since all of you are finally able to convert a Pure Mana into an Element Mana, then it's time for me to teach you how to cast a Magic spell. I recommend that let's start with Wind Mana since it's the simplest and weakest Element, Mana, out of all the Element Mana!" Teacher Marvin said as he motioned to everyone to pay attention.
"I will cast the simplest form of Wind spell which is called, Wind Dagger. A Wind Dagger is simply a dagger made out of the wind, it's easy to cast since you only need to imagine a dagger in your mind as you slowly form your Wind Mana into that of a dagger. Afterwards, a Magic circle will form and a Wind Dagger will be casted. Do you all understand?" Teacher Marvin explained while at the same time demonstrating to everyone how to successfully cast a Wind Dagger spell.
All the students quickly nodded their heads in excitement.
'We can finally cast a spell!'
"Now, it's time for all of you to do it!" Teacher Marvin said as he motioned for everyone to proceed.
All the students immediately started doing the first step, the second step, and finally the last step. Just like what was explained, they were indeed successfully able to cast a Wind Dagger spell.
However, the shape and size of all of their Wind Daggers were actually different from each other. Some had it long, some had it short, some had even only formed half of it, which was really embarrassing as that student quickly cancel casting his Wind Dagger spell.
Leo was also able to successfully cast the Magic spell. But, his wasn't a Wind Dagger though, but a Wind Sword. The moment he had thought of making a dagger, he had suddenly thought that he might as well try to form it into a sword first. Just like what he had expected, he was successful. What was really unexpected though, he was actually able to form three swords made out of the wind?
Right this moment, everyone was staring at Leo in shock, admiration, and jealously evident in their eyes. They were ordered to cast a dagger, surely because of their Mana capacity. But someone was actually able to cast three Wind Sword.
'Just how high was his Mana capacity in order to complete such casting?!'
Teacher Marvin was also in shock and in admiration of Leo's Mana capacity, "Just like what I expect from someone recommended by Sword and Magic! But, why was he unable to complete step two at first?" He thought to himself.
Leo was feeling the same way as teacher Marvin at this moment, too. To be honest, he had actually only thought of casting one Wind Sword, however; he tried to cast a second one soon after since he felt that he was still not at his limit. But still, he found that he hasn't reached his limit yet right after casting two Wind Sword, so he quickly followed with another one soon after. Three Wind Sword was then casted in such a way, which was the moment he finally found out was his limit.
However, teacher Marvin suddenly rushed towards Leo.. He grabbed Leo's hand as he stared at the three layers of Magic circle, stack together on his hand, in shock and astonishment.
