A Good Teacher

"About magic..."

There is a vast amount of knowledge about magic that Jack can teach Bruce.

However, to learn magic, one must be able to sense the existence of magic and possess magical power in nature. Otherwise, it's like trying to learn to swim without water. Fortunately, Jack has confirmed that Bruce can sense the mana energy wandering in the air, a crucial qualification for learning magic. After releasing spells, Bruce will naturally absorb energy from the external environment to recover mana.

As for the method of teaching...

Since Bruce is a man, it is certainly impossible for Jack to guide him through the step-by-step process of sensing mana like he did with Hermia. So...

"What is this?" Bruce looked at the USB flash drive handed over by Jack, his eyes twitching, sensing a bad premonition.

"It contains the basic knowledge about magic and the initial methods of sensing magic. I've summarized them. Take it back and read it first. If you don't understand anything, just ask me. Once you finish learning, we can start doing the exercises." Jack casually tossed a scrapped keyboard into the trash can.

Jack's [Physique] not only manifests in strength but also in speed, including typing. Despite having an ample amount of basic knowledge about magic, and the extensive text required to explain it in understandable terms, Jack's typing speed leaves no room for concern—it's only a matter of whether the keyboard can keep up.

"All of them?" Bruce inserted the USB flash drive into the computer and glanced at the information on it, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

"This is a necessary learning process!" Jack was very serious, emphasizing that learning magic is not child's play. It requires a cautious approach, and paying some price for it is entirely appropriate.

"Okay..." Bruce grimaced.

Before his grimace disappeared, Jack's next words made him widen his eyes again.

"Well, after you finish reading these things and have a thorough understanding, you can start doing the questions!" Jack nodded with satisfaction.

"Question??!" Bruce was sheptical. "Shouldn't the next thing be hands on practice?"

"Are you sure you perform everything perfectly from the first time? That's a matter of inducing mana from within the body, which is very dangerous!" Jack's words left Bruce speechless.

"Did you learn this way back then?" Bruce held it in for a while and asked.

"Of course." Jack responded without blushing, "And I only spent a month and sorted out all the classics, so I have the information I am giving you now!"

Of course, not in reality... The only difference is that Jack had the system.

"Then..." Bruce didn't know whether what Jack said was true, so he had to change the subject and asked, "If I learn these things, will I be able to achieve your level?"

You mean..." Jack looked at Bruce.

"The stealth and other skills you taught me are indeed much better than what I learned, but they have not reached the level you showed, or even far behind," Bruce said, "Then is the gap just because of this?"

"If you really want to say it... almost," Jack nodded, "If you can really learn the things I gave you, you will gain unimaginable power."

Then, what is your intention in teaching this to me?" Bruce asked, "I think these things are far more than 10 million."

Bruce originally felt that it was worth his 10 million to get Jack's teachings, but when Jack was about to teach him magic, Bruce suddenly felt something was wrong.

It felt like taking advantage of the situation, or perhaps Jack had a secret plan that Bruce couldn't quite grasp.

Bruce decided to cut through the ambiguity and asked directly.

"Originally, I only planned to teach you stealth and backstab. These two skills worth more than ten million," Jack explained. "Now, I'm teaching you magic out of a whim."

"Of course, if you're willing to increase the reward, I'll be happy," Jack added, leaving Bruce in contemplation.

Bruce thought, "I thought you were just doing this on a whim and wouldn't take my money. Relationships still cost money. If you just want money, that's easy!"

As someone with the ability to generate wealth, Bruce didn't hesitate to offer more money, especially when it could bring significant benefits. He suggested, "I am willing to increase the reward. If I learn magic, consider this: Wayne Group is about to go public soon. How about 10% of Wayne Group's shares—original shares, non-dilutable?"

Jack's eyes lit up, "That's really a generous reward. I agreed! Remember to give it to me in the same way as the ten million!"

Ten percent of Wayne Group's shares—an extraordinary proposition.

"If it is counted as experience points, I might have the first career that exceeds the advanced level!" Jack marveled at the prospect.

Bruce, considering an easier way, suggested, "Then... is there a simpler method? After all, if you're paying, you deserve better treatment."

"Of course, the USB flash drive I gave you contains the basic knowledge about magic," Jack responded cheerfully. "I won't take it back now, and I'll personally teach you magic!"
