Adam looked at the first-year student before him, his eyes finally landing on Asher Greville.

"Wow, why is the famous heir of the Greville Family in my class?" Adam asked Asher.

"Aren't you aware of the consequences of learning the Space Element?" He questioned.

"I am," Asher replied, his indifferent eyes fixed on Adam.

"Hmm, interesting," Adam murmured to himself.

"Well, for those who don't know, learning the Space Element essentially means decreasing your lifespan," Adam stated, examining the students' reactions.

His words impacted all the students except for Alyssa and Asher.

"Many, including me, consider the Space Element the strongest Element," Adam declared as he extracted a pen from his storage ring.

"It involves tampering with the Law of Space that pervades everything around us," Adam explained, a peculiar violet energy materializing before him.

"And leveraging that space to effect changes," He demonstrated, passing the pen through the violet energy where it reappeared in his left hand.

"Only those endowed with an affinity for this element can even contemplate learning it," Adam affirmed as one student looked confused.

"You!" Adam pointed at the student.

"If you want to ask something, then ask," Adam instructed, frowning at the student.

His sudden action caused the student to hesitate momentarily.

"Ah, you just mentioned that it decreases your lifespan. So why would anyone want to learn it then?" The student questioned.

"Good question. The answer is simple," Adam responded, a smile gracing his face.

"Who wouldn't want to explore the strongest element, even if it might kill you?" Adam grinned.

Asher studied Adam, aware that most individuals who learned about the Space Element behaved similarly.

Their emotions were exceptionally unstable, and their faith in their abilities made them impossible to deter midway.

"And how do you think the world would have functioned without Teleportation Gates?" Adam queried.

"A Space Mage assisted in that regard. Even though this element may harm its wielder, it remains fascinating, regardless of what you might think," Adam spoke, passion resonating in his voice.

"Now let's talk about Dungeons," Adam tapped the screen behind him, and a Blue Dungeon Gate materialized.

"This is a Dungeon Gate, but according to many theories, Dungeons are nothing but a more advanced form of Spatial Magic," Adam posited.

"Many, including me, believe that Dungeons represent what we could achieve through Spatial Magic if someone could learn it like other elements," Adam conveyed.

"But sadly, we are not here to learn about such things," He cut himself short.

"My job is simply to caution you all that learning the Space Element isn't for everyone," Adam clarified.

"It's a known fact that the more Space Element Magic you use, the more it will harm your mentality and physical well-being," He elaborated.

"The World Academy will teach you up to Tier 2 Spells. Tier 3 Spells are considered forbidden to use unless you are willing to risk your life," Adam stated as a student raised his hand.

"Professor, have you ever used a Tier 3 Space Element Spell?" A girl asked.

"No, I am a Space Element researcher, not a user," Adam responded.

"That's one of the reasons I'm qualified to teach at the World Academy," Adam explained.

"Most Space Element Users work under the supervision of the Mage Association. So even though it's a dangerous element, we still have many Space Element users who are alive. However, most don't survive past the age of 30," Adam conveyed.

"Let's examine one of the major side effects of using Space Magic," Adam tapped on his desk.

"Unstable Emotions, basically people like me. Most of these symptoms can be observed early in life if you have a strong affinity for the Space Element," Adam shared.

"And Mental weakness. This appears when a person uses Space Magic: severe headaches, hallucinations, etc." Adam's words discouraged most students from pursuing the Space Element.

"Well, if you're lucky, and you have the Subset Element, like Gravity, those side effects will diminish substantially," Adam directed at Alyssa.

"However, even then, you'll still experience them, as all of us do," Adam stated, but Asher knew that wasn't accurate.

He was confident that he could manage the mental strain that came with Space Magic due to his high Intelligence stat.

Adam continued explaining other concepts as he produced a book.

"This is the Tier 1 spell, Blink. In this book, I have detailed all the inner workings of this spell and how to perform it." Adam elaborated.

"This will be the only spell that we will teach you. If you wish to learn more, use the Great Library," Adam announced. The World Academy prohibited students from delving deeper into the Space Element.

However, they could still read books from various scholars throughout history if they were adamant about it.

Unlike other elements, Adam was not allowed to freely teach about the Space Element.

Adam snapped his fingers, causing books to appear before each student."This is Blink. It uses objects for small-scale teleportation. Try to understand the basics of it," Adam instructed.

"And for Miss Alyssa Astaria, you can study the books on Gravity Magic to learn more about your Advanced Element. Until then, work on the Blink Spell," Adam recommended, directing his attention to Alyssa.

Her Advanced Element was an extremely rare one, so not many people knew spells about it. The only way to learn was to get permission from your professor of that element and access the books inside the Great Library.

"This class will meet once a month, and most of the time, we will only discuss this spell," Adam concluded the class as his eyes rested on Asher Greville.

'Is he faking his affinity?' Adam pondered why someone as indifferent and expressionless as Asher would possess a Space affinity.

Ultimately, he assumed that Asher only had a slight affinity for the Space Element.

Asher studied the spell as he turned the pages, examining various factors that needed to be addressed before someone could perform Space Magic.

'Sensing Space,' Asher recalled the first step Adam had explained.

Visualizing and incorporating the space into your spell was a confusing concept. It was impossible to accomplish unless you had an affinity for the Space Element.

Asher closed his eyes as he tried to sense the Space Element from the mana that was present all around them.

It was a faint feeling, but he could sense it.

[ Rune of Eirdin is Assisting the Host ]

[ Magic Mastery is Increasing ]

Asher kept chasing that faint violet light that appeared all around him, but it was too vague for him to actually feel it.

[ Magic Master Increased to 95% ]

But Asher stopped as he lost that feeling.

The result was astoundingly fast; Asher had managed to sense the Spatial Energy that took others months. But, even for Alyssa, it took months before she could sense the Spatial Element that aided her gravity control.

It took her years to master that one spell, a feat she achieved on her own.

However, Adam only taught this spell as a Tier 1 spell. The Tier 2 Blink that Asher wanted to learn allowed short teleportations within your field of vision.

This spell was incredibly useful, augmenting his Combat Ability.

Asher opened his eyes and surveyed his surroundings. Alyssa was the only other person in the room.

Alyssa was seated in her wheelchair.

"I want to spar with you," Alyssa said, looking at Asher.

Asher's indifferent eyes met Alyssa's gaze.

"You will lose," Asher replied.

"Doesn't matter. I want to test my new spells," Alyssa responded.

"Meet me on my floor," Asher stated, to which Alyssa nodded in agreement.
