Her logic was sound, Orion realized. With renewed resolve, he shifted his approach, focusing purely on minimizing the spellcasting time. Taking a calming breath, he visualized the spell clearly, urging his mana to respond even faster.
"[Fireball]."
This time, the sphere formed noticeably quicker, materializing almost instantly before his palm. Orion felt a small thrill of accomplishment, releasing it swiftly toward the target dummy, satisfied with the seamless fluidity of his movements.
Again and again, Orion repeated the process, each casting becoming incrementally faster, smoother, and more natural.
After the eighth casting, he paused, 'How many times can a normal mage cast the Fireball spell at Tier 1?'
[Hmm, from what we learned in the classes, a typical mage can cast anywhere from 3–5 spells of their own level, while geniuses can cast 8–10 times.]
'Heh, should I test my limits today?' he said with an excited smile on his face.
