The soul manipulates the magic energy in the air or ground touching you, and draws it into your body. The magic effect when you do so could be you filtering out tiny increments of magic energy that became magic but didn’t get out of your body, but too small to do harm.
The closer the energy is, the more easily and precisely you / your soul can manipulate it.
One thing I don’t understand is that the magic energy around you is neutral, more or less, before coming through your mind into your magic. Why would it go through your mind before being filtered out of your body when charging?
So, are all magics actually the same? But the way the energy has been arranged and how it reacts with the users soul changes the form and properties of it?
I’m sorry to ask if this wastes your time, but do you know how or why magic energy in the user’s body is converted into their respective magic? Is it through the mind or soul?

I know, same argument with fire, to give it some sense we must go to some level of insane metaphysics, or just say Vetex has his focus on the story not the science, both ways works well to me ngl
