"Hey Rivi," I nudged up against Rivi's shoulder as we trudged our way back out of the ice cave.
"What's up?"
"How did you do that…summoning thing" I gestured into the empty air. "With the cup and the water."
"Oh you mean this?" She reached out and a cap filled with water rapidly appeared in her hand.
"Yeah! That. Is that like, a spell, or are you like freely manipulating the mana? I mean what elements are you even using? Is that creation magic?"
"Oh Silvie…" Rivi gaped at me. "Uh, just how much do you know about magic?" Her voice raised at the end as if I really didn't know very much at all.
I felt my cheeks flush a little. "Well, not much really. The system allows me to cast some spells, but it's not really me doing it. I tried once or twice to branch out a little from that, but I haven't been able to really figure anything out."
