Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Zick had brought multiple books about magic from the seivet city. Right now learning about magic would be better than training in his mana. The dragon heart within his body kept on increasing his mana and its quality. He could even feel that his body had gotten stronger than before.

Zick knew that his talent to become a mage had increased but he didn't know its limit. He didn't even know at which rank he was at.

Zick took out a book from his ring while still flying in the sky upon the wyvern. The book was about the difference between all the ranks in a mage professional in simple words. It was written by someone named Austrif jwertes.

The reason Zick brought this book is because of the name 'Austrif' in it. In the novel, Austrif was the magic instructor in theory of the protagonist class. Austrif at that time was a peak rank mage known for his theoretical knowledge of magic, his practical skills were also above average.

Opening the book, Zick started reading with an interesting expression. He had tried becoming mage when he was 10 year old but spectacularly failed but now with the dragon heart increasing his affinity with mana, he should be able to use magic.  Excitement rose within him.

'Ah..... I have been getting excited a lot in the past month.....'

A smile formed in his face as he read the book. The reason why he wanted to try becoming a mage was because of one of the harem members of the protagonist in the novel. She was the one and only Archmage who would appear in future, she was able to conjure magic having the power of a natural disaster with a wave of her hand.

The title archmage wasn't something that could be easily gained, being able to create magic equalling a natural disaster showed their strength and value.

If a natural disaster is created in the middle of the battlefield? hundreds of knights would die without being able to resist or fight back.

An archmage doesn't just have the strength to create large scale magic like this, they can create magics that can be used in close range battles. Even their scout ability goes past the level of a master swordsman.

For defeating such a person who excels in every aspect useful in a battle is very hard.

The only easy way to defeat an archmage is by sending an assassin who can go past their scouting skills or killing them using overwhelming strength.

Zick wasn't worried about getting assassinated at all. With his current senses he was even confident enough to find a master assassin if he was hiding his presence nearby.

Zick's excitement just grew thinking about it. He has been worried about not having a proper long range attack for a while. This problem could be alleviated by becoming a master swordsman but there would still be certain limits.

By becoming a mage almost all his problems with long range attacks would be solved. Then there would be one less thing to worry about.

Closing the book, Zick thought of all the things he had just read.

The book wasn't very large so he was able to finish it in an hour but the content written in it was anything but simple.

'And the book title says 'in simple words'...'

Zick was still not able to understand all of the things written in this book but he was able to understand what the difference between each rank was.

A person becomes a lowest rank mage the moment they are able to conjure a magic. That can be said as the starting point of the mage profession and the moment a person's affinity will be known.

If a person has to give it his all just make the mana in the surrounding hear to them and form a magic, the book clearly stated for them to give up. Their talent can only at most bring them to the low rank after working hard for a few years.

"...."

This just shows how much Zick's affinity with mana was, the mana in his surroundings didn't even form into magic when he tried doing it.

Only the people who can conjure a magic with little effort just by imagining it have enough talent to walk the path of mage.

A person becomes a low rank when he is able to do the magic in lowest rank with ease and is able to shoot it without making the mana dissipate. Normally when a lowest rank mage tries to shoot the magic he conjured, it vanishes in thin air.

Only when a magic is formed with enough mana is it possible to shoot a magic without letting it vanish. This takes a lot of skills, a person has to be able to control a larger amount of mana then the first time he created a magic in lowest rank. Only by working hard can this be possible, the mage profession is easier and faster to rise unlike the knight profession.

If you have enough talent, it is possible to become a low rank mage in weeks.

The middle rank mage are the people who have enough strength to be somewhat useful in a fight. A person who is able to make two magic forms at the same time can be said to have reached middle rank mage.

High rank mage, when a person reaches this rank everything changes. They can use the mana in the surrounding to reinforce their body temporarily, there are different kinds of magic like accelerate, strengthen and more which are mostly taught in the academy. When they reinforce their body with the surrounding mana they cannot form a magic.

They are the people who mostly participate in battles and survive. A mage in high rank is  able to use multiple magic at the same time.

Only little is known about the mages in peak rank, they are able to conjure magic from 50 to 100 metres away from their body. This could come in use in many ways in a battle.

And the only other thing known about them is that they can use both mana to reinforce their body and form magic at the same time.

Nothing is known about the Archmage.

'It's a lot more complicated than I thought.....'

Though the mage profession gave the benefit of growing faster, it would take a lot of hard work mentally.
