Page 13 of the rules say:

To cast such a spell, the player places the card faceup in front of him after rolling dice during his turn. Then he chooses one die from that roll. Without changing its result, he places the die on the Spell card’s securing icon.

So it sounds like you can only secure one die per roll.

Notwithstanding what it says in the rule book, I believe that that spell (with two slots) is intended to receive upto two dice from one roll. You roll the dice first, then have the option of playing the spell, then you choose which dice to store for future use.

I might be wrong, and if I am, I'd be pleased to be put right. However, the rulebook for this game, especially dealing with the spell rules, is a bit wobbly to say the least.
