What is magic in this magical world

There are infinite amounts of universes including ours, so what would happen if two universes composed of entirely different structures swapped an item from their universes. Well honestly anything could happen and one of these probabilities is the doom of the universe's foolish actions.

Is a theory I once heard long ago and is something that I recently just remembered. So how come I'm not dead or the end of this universe didn't happen? There gotta be something more, like they're not using magic or they believe magic exists and it's something else entirely, shit as excited as I am to be able to wield magic there gotta be something wrong or something distorted, right?

"Shiroi, is everything fine? You look pale as if you saw a ghost" calm down, just calm down I'm alive right now the world didn't end either now calm down. "Y-yea I'm fine, just needed to calm down" "hmm… if you're still not feeling well you can go." "yea."

"All of you soon to be royal mages know that magic isn't the real name; it was only popularized by famous novels such as The Saga of the Dragon enclave, The Wyvern Knight of pern, Song of the Might." When the instructor spoke I realized how stunning she was, with her long golden hair she kept down her dark orange eye's as for her clothing all that I could think of was how clean it looked; having a tight black long sleeved turtle neck shirt that showed off her muscular feature she had four golden rings, maybe bracelets fits better, around her wrists, nick and just above her pants the bracelets looks like a golden version of the monkey kings crown and her pants where a white with a golden swirls designs that looks oddly similar to fire if you squint your eyes. And she had a black cloth with a golden outline of where she wrapped it around her ankle and her footwear was similar to that of ninjas use, a thick looking sock or maybe leather I couldn't tell, that split her big toe from the rest. From the many lessons I learn on appearance I knew she was an agile

That's when some others raised their hands. He had an appearance of a mage that you'd only  see in isekai, with his dark purple robe and staff with a bright orange cristale the only unique thing about him was the fact he was not only young but with a black buzz cut hair, and orange eye that matched his cristale staff to the T. "I'm sorry instructor but what's the point in telling us this, isn't magic just the power of the imagination and information?" 

"That's the very thing you're missing, you're only describing the power in third person, through another person's eyes. The true name of magic is Prana and Prana to use Prana to its fullest is by imprinting your very will into the element you wish to controle." Honestly, that doesn't explain my mental crises, just forget it; it was probably wrong like the many universal theories. "Why is that, why do the citizens not know that magic isn't just magic?" As soon as I said that everyone except for the prince and the instructor stared at me as if they were saying "isn't it obvious."

"Like I said, fantasy novels diluted the truth of 'magic' more so that mage schools or books are only available to the nobility, well for now that is. So the citizens don't care, and even if they somehow find money to buy the book they usually just spend it on themselves, to their loved ones or just invest it all for their future."

"If there are no more questions then let's proceed with the lecture, to start off I'll let his highness demonstrate how he not only manipulates the water but also imprinting his will." Then one of the guards came with a bucket of water and gave it to Henry. He then dumped the water onto the ground and kneeled to put his palm onto the puddle of water. And now what, he's going to pull out an ice spear, water sword, or maybe an ice scythe, ah a bow… a normal looking one at that. Well I can't say much from how he created it was astonishing. Pulling the very water into a desired shape and using both of his hands to make the bow a stable shape and then grabbing the very bow that should have never existed. "Now this is a good example of how to use Prana, more so when the prince is still maintaining the Prana state. Now know that maintaining this state isn't dangerous but exhausting, this is due to the fact that manipulating Prana isn't only taxing for the mind that is maintaining the balance of the Prana but also the body which is allowing Prana to flow through it."

"So what you're saying is we use ice to help maintain the Prana?" came another person with his hands raised, and yet again came another unique person, he had white… no, pure white hair similar to the snow brown chocolatey eyes but as for his clothes it looked like it belonged in the medieval times. With it's brown leather raping around him similarly to a blacksmith with the only difference was that he had on white gauntlet similar color to his hair and armored boots with the same syle. "Yes that's true but let's take another approach. Why not use an arrow as water ? What do you think you'll be capable of if you do this?"

With that very question, it made everyone think and blurt out answers with every single one being as unique as the last. "We can compress the water and release the back end as we shoot the bow!" "we can compress most of the water at the tip so when it hits it'll explode!" "when the arrow is shot we can split the arrow into many more!" "when the arrow is shot we can control the direction of the arrow to the destination or destinations!" These were only the sane answers because the more answers came the more brutal it was in front of the last one. There were just scary motherfuckers!

"You're all correct but you can do more by just combining some answers to others to create a more devastating attack." "How is that even possible?" "wouldn't that exhaust us?" "That's far too taxing!" with every single student denying her claim she only gave a menacing grin to them all. And to complement the crazy students we have just as crazy mentor. "But you can, all you have to do is think simpler. Let me give you an example, let's take a sentence and chop it up. 'James has gone to school so he can learn with full extent of what math is' this is how you all are using Prana your only thinking of complexity, this of course can give you an advantage that the enemy doesn't copley your technique but let's be real there doing the exact same instead of this slow complex sentence let shorten it. 'James gone to school to learn math' this is simple if we apply this very thing to Prana it'll make it fast, easy and least cost effective"

"That concludes my recap, tomorrow we are going to get to the real lessons." So that's what magic is, but that doesn't explain where Prana comes from or how to manipulate Prana; well she did say imprint my 'will' but how can I do that? How do I 'imprint my will' into the water just like Henry did.

"Hay-" do I force myself onto the water or the sense of self into it but she did say something about manipulating the water into something desirable but how, how do I go about doing so it just doesn't make sense how does one just force themselves onto the water.

"SHIROI!!" "huh!? Oh" when Henry pulled me back from my own mind I notest that everyone has left, well shit here we go with my habits again. "I'm sorry, I kept you here waiting for me" "well it's no problem it's just how in the world are you capable of concentrating that much." "well I have my brother to thank for that" as we walked out from the class the mentor stopped us and yet again I noticed how big some of these people are, I could just barely reach her chin! "Shiroi controlling Prana isn't imprinting your will but being able to control Prana itself, being able to command it to do what you want." "how-" "I'll tell you more just go and rest" when she left, but when she did I couldn't help but admire her from her clothes to her muscular body she was a true fighter. "Shiroi right now it's late I gotta go I have a couple of things to finish" "yea got it" "here's a map" I gave my thanks to Henry and headed straight to the baths when I got back to my room I went to the restroom and looked at myself. "I really am in a fantasy world with magic, all there needs are dragons" this is getting exciting, can't wait for tomorrow.
