Vol 1 Chapter 20
According to the explanation at the beginning of the magic book, the size of the circle to be drawn becomes smaller as the circle level increases. While at first he had drawn large circles by waving his arm in front of his body, now at the 3rd circle, he was drawing circles just slightly larger than a human head.
In his opinion, by the time he reached the level of a high-ranking mage of 5th or 6th circle, he might only need to draw circles about the size of his fist. Then, he could quickly draw them with just one finger, making the magic manifestation speed even faster. If he went beyond that and reached the ultimate end of the 9th circle, he might be able to use all circles without drawing any at all. He could now feel how amazing that would be.
As he watched the green horizontal and vertical lines run across the world before his eyes, completing the formula world, he slowly began to imagine.
Electricity formed by the meeting of positive and negative. Although he had never thought about it in detail before, both lightning and electricity were phenomena that inspired awe in people. He tried hard to remember the rumbling sound from a rainy day he had seen as a child. Or the faint crack-like lightning in a dim photograph. And then...
And then.
"Hah..."
With a weak sigh, the light of the circle shining in the air faded, and the formula world disappeared. He lowered his hand.
"I don't know."
It was still lacking something for imagination. To fill that...
Despite having about three hours left until forced logout, he logged out. Emerging from the capsule, he decided to use a method that was surprisingly simple yet he hadn't tried until now.
"Computer, connect to the web page."
[ ...Connection complete. ]
After a moment of loading time, the computer answered, and soon a hologram of the web page search screen appeared on the living room wall. A place where countless pieces of information float. If it was there, couldn't he have enough indirect experience even without direct experience?
"Search term, 'electricity'. Search."
[ Searching for 'electricity'... 2,218,120,482 web pages, posts, videos, images, and music found. ]
"Good. Go to the very first one."
Soon, the information from the first web page appeared before him.
[ Electricity. It refers to the energy composed of electric charges and the force with electrical properties. In this world, various forms of energy exist as light, heat, magnetism, etc., and electricity is a form of energy with electrical energy. ]
...This wasn't what he wanted to know.
"Stop. Next page."
[ Around 600 BC in Greece... they discovered that when amber mineral was rubbed, light objects would stick to it. This was the first discovery of electrical phenomena... However, at that time, they couldn't distinguish between electricity and magnetism... ]
"Stop!"
There was nothing helpful at all. Irritably brushing up his bangs, he decided to change to a different search term. For now, aggressive electricity. In other words, the common image of Lightning Bolt is close to lightning striking. So then.
"Search again with the term 'lightning'."
[ Searching for 'lightning'... 111,115,478 web pages, posts, videos, images, and music found. ]
"First page."
This time, he hoped for something more proper.
[ ...Human skin has an insulating effect, but the blood and lymph fluid beneath the skin are conductors that allow electricity to pass through, unlike the skin. Therefore, for lightning, humans under large buildings or trees become the target, and if lightning strikes while standing next to a tree, it's natural for the large branch to transfer to the human. ]
Hmm. This one seemed to give him a bit of an idea.
[ ...The current when lightning strikes generates enormous energy. In other words, the Earth itself is no different from being in a state of a giant generator. ]
At the words that the Earth itself was a giant generator, Kapros suddenly felt a subtle sensation and continued scrolling down. As he kept going down, there was a photo showing low mountains gathered, with a cloudy sky above them, and in the middle, light was gathering to look like the sun, striking down towards the mountains in the center.
He was mesmerized. It was an overwhelming sight. Thin strands of light connected like blood vessels in the middle of the large lightning stem, and the struck mountain looked as if it would explode with a scream at any moment. As he stared blankly at that photo, a sense of elation rose in his chest.
"Yes, this is it."
The most intimidating shining spear of nature's judgment. That was the strongest image he received, and no further contemplation was necessary.
Immediately logging back into Mist, he confidently drew a circle and pushed his hand in. As the formula world unfolded, he closed his eyes in his blank white mind and recalled that image from just now.
A spear of judgment striking down towards the ground. In the moment it flashes, everything will be incinerated, leaving nothing behind.
Becoming the judge who grasps the stem of light to condemn the enemy!
A river of electricity branching like blood vessels flowing through the body!
Woong!
The formula world began to vibrate, resonating with his emotions. As the world slowly intensified, he opened his eyes with an overwhelming feeling.
"With my light and burning lightning, turn even the soul into a handful of ashes!"
With a trembling cry, his hair fluttered from the magical current rising before his eyes, and unbelievably, a crackling sound began to be heard.
Light is rising...!
As he grasped it as if holding it in his hand, a thrilling sensation that felt refreshing was transmitted. This was it!
"Lightning Bolt!"
He thrust what he held in his hand straight down to the floor.
Bang!
The floor of the practice room with the magic circle drawn on it, which had been suffering a lot lately due to his practice, absorbed the magic with an explosion. Touching his face with the joy of success, he felt beads of sweat falling.
"Hahaha...!"
Just then, light burst from the third book. The incantation for Lightning Bolt burned and flew away. He had achieved practically 3rd class mastery in just six days!
"In two more days, I'll be able to repay my debt and have some left over."
Just wait until then, they’ll regret having messed with me. Those guys must have been feeling quite a chill down their spines by now. With a satisfied smile, he began training the final spells.

Jin Soram, the top-ranked hunter representing South Korea's Rift Phenomenon Management Headquarters, is stronger than anyone else and lazier than anyone else. As soon as he arrives at the office, he buries himself under a blanket and falls asleep. When he goes out on a mission, he causes accidents and returns to the office, often shirking his duties.
"Do you know how it feels to play a game that's already messed up? ...Anyway, the next round will come, so this time, I'm just going to play it recklessly."
In fact, his true identity is someone who has regressed through three lives, trying to save the world from the Great Rift but failing each time. After repeating a life where he couldn't sleep peacefully even for a day, he became completely exhausted before this life even began.
"I know. You worked hard, Jin Soram."
And then there's Han Tae-un, the man who saved Soram and died in all three previous lives. As he did in every life, he comes to Soram's side once again. The Great Rift is approaching soon. It's impossible to resolve it in this life without any preparation. Soram vows to save Tae-un in this life and die himself. At least, he won't let Tae-un save a failure like himself again.
"For now, until then, let's sleep..."
As Soram sluggishly lives his life waiting for that moment, a gradual change occurs in his heart.
'I thought this was a messed-up round... but I want to live a little longer here.'

"Since when have you been watching me?"
Leonardo was calculative and astute, so it wouldn't be surprising if he had been observing Hugo for some time now. However, Leonardo's answer was something that even Hugo had not anticipated.
