Magic’s Return: I Can See The Spirits

Chapter 42 This Magic Circle Is Fundamentally Wrong.



Another day passed by, Vaan’s punishment period ended and just as he had decided, he was currently standing in front of his mother’s room.

*Knock* *Knock*

He knocked on the door.

“It is me, mother.”

“Come in.”

Astra ordered.

Vaan walked into the room, his eyes fell on Astra, who was looking at her with a solemn look on her face,

“You are getting bolder, Vaan,” Astra commented.

“I feel like I have heard this before.” Vaan smiled.

“Do I look like I am in the mood for jokes?” Astra narrowed her

“Is there an issue?” Vaan asked with a frown on his face.

“You went against Rylan! A Top-level Intermediate Mage! You think that is not an issue?”

“I had no other option, Mother.”

“You should have just stayed silent! Why did you provoke him!?”

“Hehe~ Please don’t act like that mother, even you joined in later when you said you would like to spar.”

“…” Astra turned silent.

“Pfft! Did you see his face when you proposed a fight?

Magic Research, Hahaha~.”

Vaan laughed out loud.

“You are taking this a little too lightly, Vaan.” Astra, who barely kept a straight face, spoke.

“Isn’t that expected from your child, mother? I have Astra in my name, after all.”

“Your skills to butter me up have indeed gotten better.”

In the end, a smile broke out on Astra’s face.

She didn’t know why, but this new Vaan always had a way to calm her anger and make her smile. She honestly missed talking to him these past two days.

However, she still needed to put out a strict front,

“If you are my son, then prove it with your Magic Accomplishments.” She spoke.

“Right, I almost forgot. That was what I was here for.”

“For what?”

“My Magic Accomplishments, of course. It seems your son has discovered something that could be quite troublesome.” Vaan smiled.

“Troublesome?” Astra frowned. 𝚗𝞸𝗏𝑒𝓵𝐧𝐞xt.𝚌𝔬𝑀

However, rather than talking about it, Vaan simply decided to show up.

“Krrriiii~~”

Flamey roared in excitement as she appeared next to Vaan, ready to help him summon the circle, Vaan absorbed Mana and soon, he formed the advanced Magic Circle.

Astra’s expression change the moment her eyes fell on Vaan’s Magic Circle.

“That is…”

“An Advance Magic Circle I researched, a Circle with 6 Inner Circles and more space to draw Magic Patterns.”

Vaan expressed.

He took little Flamey’s credit, however, he couldn’t just say that it was created by a little spirit that no one else but him could see. Even his mother would call him crazy if he did that.

He did try to talk about beings like Flamey, the spirits, or fairies, however, Astra simply told him not to read fantasy books and focus on Magic.

“How did you create this Circle?” Astra questioned with a frown on her face.

“I don’t know… It just came into my mind…?”

Vaan gave a vague answer.

Astra looked into Vaan’s eyes and didn’t say anything. Vaan felt a little uncomfortable, so he presented the problem Elara talked about.

“Other Mages would definitely come after this Magic Circle, so I came to you to discuss about it. What should I do? Should I hide it from others and keep it as my Trump Card, or do I keep it as my main Circle without caring about anything?”

“Distribute the design of this Magic Circle, say you researched it, and then use it however you like. If other mages want, then they can research your Magic Circle and try to understand the principles behind it.”

Astra replied.

“Huh?” Vaan however, just frowned.

“Are you asking me to distribute it publicly?” he questioned just to confirm that he wasn’t hearing things.

“That is correct.” Astra nodded.

“Mother, I am sorry to disappoint you but I am not some holy saint who cares for humanity’s growth or some other stupid thing like that.

I am a selfish man who only cares about myself and people close to me.

If you want, I can give the design to you, however, I do not wish to distribute it publicly.”

ραndαsnοvεl.cοm Vaan opposed it.

Even if he wasn’t the one who created this circle on his own, he still didn’t wish to share it with others. Why would he share his trump card with others? That was foolish.

Even if it was his mother was the one telling him to do this, Vaan was still against it.

Astra, however,

“Do you think I am a Saint?”

Suddenly, Astra questioned.

“You think I rose to my position just because I was good at magic?” A small smile appeared on her face.

“What do you mean?” Vaan frowned.

“If it was really something that amazing, I would never do something as foolish as distributing it publicly.”

“Are you saying this circle is useless?” Vaan couldn’t understand.

Even Elara said that this Magic Circle was impressive enough for high leveled Mages to drool over it, then why was his mother acting like this?

Was she really that good that she doesn’t care about it? Does this Magic Circle mean nothing at her level?

Even if it was true, was it really okay to distribute it just because it wasn’t impressive in her eyes?

“It seems you have misunderstood me.”

Sensing what Vaan was thinking, Astra commented.

Vaan glanced at her for answers, Astra raised her hand, then,

A similar circle with 6 Inner Circles was created, it was not exactly similar to Vaan’s own circle, however, Vaan knew that the ‘principles’ behind it were still the same.

Astra had already interpreted the circle from her own perspective and could now copy it.

‘As expected of her…’

Vaan was impressed.

But then suddenly, the Magic Circle that was shining brightly was broken into pieces.

Vaan frowned.

Astra finally explained,

“This Magic Circle is fundamentally wrong.

Even if you give the design to others, they cannot use it even if they spend decades in trying to understand it. It is just a waste of effort.

I do not know how you are casting it,

I can only assume that there is another strange power inside you that is helping you use this Magic Circle, a strange, mysterious power.”

Astra spoke and Vaan’s expression changed as he glanced at Flamey flying around the room with an unbothered look on her face.

“Krrriiiii!!”
