"That's... hard to believe...""I know. I would have a hard time adjusting my mind to these fantastical things if my mind weren't influenced by the mana back then.""What kind of influence you are talking about?""Hmm... It's hard to describe. It's like your body and mind both want to embrace mana and you yourself slowly drifting toward the mana and magic.""That's a little scary.""I know. But mana itself isn't scary. It's just an energy. It's up to you how you use it."I told him everything that happened. How I found him on the verge of death and how he died in my arms. It was embarrassing to talk about it now that he was back to life. But I told him everything anyway. We have known each other for years and I know that I can trust him with anything.He had a difficult time believing everything I told him. I created a small fire in my hand and showed this to him. He was shocked and started to accept things. Seeing supernatural things is always more effective than hearing them from so
"Well, you are trying to create a new element. You wouldn't expect it to be easy to achieve. It's something unheard of in the spirit realm. You achieving this much is already an awesome feat.""What can I say, I'm the first mage on earth."I smiled smugly. I am really proud of this nickname. I may have given it to myself but that doesn't matter. The truth is I really am the first mage on this earth. There is no clan that can use mana and does magic. There are bounty hunters who can use mana but they can only use it with the help of magi-tech. And spirits are spirits.After me, Mason would be the second mage. Well, if he doesn't want to be in this world I can't force him. I want him to be with me in this but I can't force this on him. This is something he has to decide of his free will.There are many amazing things on the supernatural side of the world. I don't know everything but I already know the wonderful things this world has to offer. Things you can do with mana or aether are fa
(Oscar's POV)Hah... There are a lot of concerning things for the future. Mason just woke up and decide that he wants to join us. Charlotte also chose to join us with him. I wonder when they are going to confess to each other. It is clear that both of them have feelings for each other. Thanks to this I won't need to erase or alter Charlotte's memories. We are still a small team after all. Keeping everyone safe is my utmost priority.After a little bit talk, I sent Mason to rest in the infirmary. It's best that he rest a bit more. Charlotte also went to look after him. It's really cute seeing them together. After they left the main hall, I chatted with Kairi and Izumi for a while. When it started to get late I went home."I'm home, mom.""Welcome back, sweetheart. Dinner is almost ready.""Oh, I'm coming just after changing my clothes."I went up to my room and changed my clothes. Tomorrow there is school and I also have to plan the future of the team. I'm the leader of our team at th
Luna was waiting in front of the old wooden door. She was inside a room with only a simple chair in it. This was a waiting room. She was in here this room for an hour already. She was waiting for the trial to begin. There was a colosseum-like room behind the old wooden doors.She had to be judged in the trial because of her big failure with her previous spell. She didn't expect her spell to go wrong and cause this. She will have to fight against many opponents and defeat them all to clear this trial. The main purpose of this trial is to prove one's power to defend itself and defeat enemies. All this was that her failure might alert clans and the rest of the supernatural world of their existence. The witches have been in hiding for the last four hundred years and every coven on earth wants to keep it this way.The trial will happen in a reflection dimension. This dimension mirrors the real world and whatever happens inside stays inside. The witches use this dimension to keep their exis
"Hahaha. She is a promising young witch. If we want to survive in the future we need every young witch we can. We all know the situation on the Sanraisu. There are already many suspicious movements related to the clans reported. They will eventually set their eyes outside of the Sanraisu. They will notice our existence, if not today, a few years later at most. When the troubling times are getting closer, should we really punish our best witch?"Camila furrowed her brows. She knew that Elijah was right. There were big troubles on the horizon. The number of the witches on the earth can't be compared to the clans of the Sanraisu. Also, some of the clans had much more power than most of the covens. So, this was one of the reasons why witch covens scattered around the world and hid from everyone else. To survive.In a possible war against those clans, witches will certainly perish. This was the bitter truth every elder of every coven on earth had to accept. Elder Avery and Elder Layla look
And now it's time for her final opponent. This one will be the most difficult one and also where she will use her true power to show everyone what she really can do. Before Hector was announced at the beginning of the third trial, the leader of the coven stand up from her seat. This immediately attacked everyone's attention.Luna furrowed her brows seeing the expression on her mother's face. Almost everyone could only see her expression as nothing but indifference but Luna could read her expression. Eliana was angry. She was going to do something to satiate that anger of hers. This will be definitely something that will make things harder for Luna. And she was absolutely right."...We will use another monster for the third stage. Hector, bring out the convict number 6 and cease that stupid jokes.""!!! Yes, ma'am."That's bad, thought Luna. She knew what her mother meant as the convict number 6 also known as the cold one. It was one of the only monsters she didn't want to face. It was
Elders' balcony"...Luna Edgar cleared the third stage of the trial... It is time for elders to decide..."After Hector's words, everyone turned towards the elders' balcony. There was a deadly silence, both inside of the balcony and outside of it. All of the elders and the leader of the coven had serious and grim expressions on their faces. Before the situation could turn into something else Elijah talked."We will announce our decision... ten minutes later. Meanwhile, everyone should take some break."Everyone visibly relaxed after hearing Elder Elijah's words, other elders included. When the attention was lifted from the balcony all of the elders turned to each other. Elijah was once again the first to talk."This will give us ten minutes. We should make a decision.""...I find it hard to make. All of us saw it. She awakened the curse mark and even deactivate it by herself. This should be investigated before we can make any decision.""You are right, Camila. But, most of them don't
(Oscar)Jason seemed to be nervous. I don't know what he is exactly thinking but it has to be something to do with Hope. Whenever he seems nervous he often thinks about Hope. Watching him feels both amusing and a bit weird. I guess love really makes people change.We are sitting inside the clubroom right now. It's already after school. Today school was boring as usual. I can't enjoy school as I used to after learning more about the supernatural world but I can't just abandon this life. In the worst case, I can use it as a cover. But still, it's damn boring. Well, the school festival is coming in two weeks' time so I might get the chance to enjoy it. Our club decided to publish a comic book and we have almost finished it."Will you talk already? Watching you this nervous makes me uncomfortable."I said with a bit of irritation in my voice. He keeps fidgeting in his seat for ten minutes already. Anyone would be uncomfortable just sitting near him. I was unfortunately sitting right acros
