Right? If he incorporated his magic she'd have frostbite.

"....ABRASIVE JET, 3000"

Sorry Ryo is only at 1 byte worth of simultaneous casting. I am not sure if he needs to train to unlock 1 more bit to allow him to cast 512 or if he has to wait for the full byte and then he can do 65,536.

I am just kidding. I have no clue how his system works.

I imagine he's found a way to double his spell, and then double his doubled spell etc. Much easier than keeping tracking of exactly N spells in your head.

Hasn't he done like 1000 whatever in the past?

His limit was 256 if he wants to perfectly cast and control it (like instantly). Double that, and he won't be able to control 100% of the attacks. Make it reach 1024 and the cast time will be at least a second (which is deadly in close combat as seen beforehand).

uhh, the maximum rn is 256😭. but even after including his water magician, it won't enhance his speed. that is what ryo wants to work around as he said in the fight with leonairre. also, ig wind magic does make you insanely fast, or it's just sera cuz she's an elf? It'd be a massive help to ryo cuz now he has a sparring partner. oh and 1 more thing, sera didn't use a staff for her magic either…

I believe he is currently practicing that after his fight with Leonore. We see him try and freeze the ground to move faster by sliding along it and using water jets to propel him briefly. Who knows maybe he'll make a full on mech suit out of water.

Starting to think the Ice cart from the opening scene implement this principle in some way.

Low friction vehicle, would be even lower if he turned it into a railcar.

u/frand__ Sep 03 '25

I hope he figures something like "I can use more than just water magic", after all fake Micheal just said water was his type with the MOST affinity not sole affinity.

Heating and cooling air behind and in front of him using his water to create air currents (wouldn't put this incredibly convoluted and nonsensical manner past him lol).
