4 The Monster

Right after opening the door, to hear such rude remark from a student made his mood swing in a 180 degree. He was really mad! Monster your HEAD!

"Ahem!" Still because he's a teacher he can't lose composure in this kind of matters.

Liu was relieve that his teacher didn't lash out of anger

'Phew! This teacher of mine should have something good happened to control his feelings

Lui lamented

Well totally, something good happened before the class because the principal had commended him for his deed.

But well it's not really a big thing so we'll skip that.

" Uhm Teacher,, " awkwardly saying, Liu tried his best to summon his courage in order to talk on his teacher about the new student beside him

" Good Morning Sir! I am Ai!" Ai hurriedly said after assessing that this man was a monster so he thought he must ask some forgiveness for his rude behavior of his

" I am very much sorry, its just that teacher surprised me when I was very nervous and also added by the background of the door you really looked like a monster at that time, Please do forgive this rude student of yours!." Ai then kowtow 2 times in order for his speech to be sincere

Added by this puppy eyes of his that looked like a ravaged rat that escaped from the sewers.

"Oh. Oh I am at fault also" the teacher was surprised and was well touched by the politeness of this child but that puppy eyes of him destroyed all good evaluation him in this boys appearance.

That puppy eyes is very unsightly.

"Student?" Teacher found some words that intrigued him.

" Reporting to teacher! Ai is the new student admitted in the school and put in this room" Liu talked to the teacher about things also included that false story of the boy who called him monster, an ugly monster that is.

The teacher told the both to go inside and he will introduce the transfer student to the class.

The room was 40x40 meters so it was quite small to house 25 students, added by Ai which is now 26 in all.

The introduction of Ai went smooth and many students was surprised about what happened in their new classmate. Some felt pity and some felt remorse to those traitorous relative of him

After the introduction the normal schedule of class went on.

It started about fundamentals of magic like absorbing mana, controlling mana, visualizing the control of mana, they were all about mana. Which put Ai very curious.

'All about mana? how about magic? elements?' He asked to himself

Very soon he was answered by the teacher.

"You Lad Ai, you must be curious as to why its all about mana am I right?" the teacher which looked like a mind reader startled Ai

"Y-yes teacher" Ai shyly answered the teacher

Teacher then Flick his sleeves and begin to produce an aura of a expert.

" It is about mana because mana is the foundation of our magic, as such when our mana is aligned to the system of the spell then it will be casted, but when it is not on the system of our elemental structure, the spell will be rendered useless. Making our mana into a waste and also our mana cannot be wasted because mana cannot be replenished quickly. It is by meditating we can gain mana gain after casting magic but meditation does not apply to high tiered magicians because they are one with the origin energy supplying them with mana. But these is still advanced so let's skip that.

Control of mana is the ability to construct mana to make our spells, okay.

Now Visualization, Even if you control your mana very well but you lack visual ability then its all for naught, It's now visual using your eyes but your mind, to visualize you spell and then cast it, for advanced magicians they can even alter their spell and fuse other elements to their magics to become much more stronger, but in your age casting one element at a time would be good because you're still young"

The teacher paused and them looked at Ai intently to see if this boy was listening or able to digest the new wisdom he delivered.

Then he continued

" Now for absorbing mana, we cast spells right? so we use mana to do it, but where does this mana come from? its from our surroundings, but in a body of every living being he have a storage for mana and our innate mana, thus we classify mana into two categories, External and Innate

External from your surroundings, tools, and any other that are not from your body. Innate means that already exist in your body after you were born" the teacher then smiled at Ai after his lesson tho this new kid.

" Oh ! Oh!" Ai very well digested everything about the teacher said because Ai is an excellent listener but compared to his brothers at Earth his trash, but let's forget about them for the mean time

" Do you understand now??" the teacher eagerly asked

"Yes teacher I understand everything, so all in all mana is the core of the spells in a magician and with proper education and skills a magician cannot become a good mage even with a great amount of mana. Skills, and Wit are basic needs to become a mage" Ai excitedly replied to the teacher.

Ai's emotion right now would be describe as a hungry human that is being fed with food. Those who accept knowledge are not stupid but those who don't accept is stupid.

Ding! ding ! ding!

The school bell rang.

Making the signal for the class to end for the day, some where exhausted and some were sleepy as fuck you those yapping of teachers, they want to use magic now, but still they are grounded to study mana.

After they graduate, then the school would give them a chance to awaken their bodies to know their elements that are compatible to them.

If they graduate. that's the question.

Still The new student didn't go home because he got tons of questions to the teacher of his that heartily answered his questions till dusk. Liu didn't even bother to disturb Ai but instead he listened to both of them and was smiling at Ai progress in this world, the more he looked at Ai the more he become attached, this friend of him is surprisingly witty and able to fabricate false stories in order to escape in a troubling matter.

Soon the teacher and student bade farewells,

But Ai was unreluctant because the answered questions of him were only the tip of the ice berg, but then he controlled himself because he remembered that he had someone with him and had listened to him all day,

The duo went to Liu's house

After having dinner, the duo then lay down in the bed

"Liu this world really is amazing," Ai made Liu tummy to be his pillow which made Liu somewhat blushed,

Ai did this because its his first time to be so comfortable with someone so looooong. So he subconsciously did this.

The surprised Liu then answered " If you say so " then Liu smiled and looked up in the open window staring at those majestic stars.

' I miss you guys' Liu thought to himself sighed

"I wonder, how would be a great magician be" Ai Ask while his eyes closed imagining things

"That would be very amazing to control elements, to fly, to lift mountains, or even dive into the depths of water, many are possible to a great magician," Liu commented

"This is very comforting" Ai subconsciously said after falling asleep on Liu's tummy,
