Chapter 52 You Are About To Become A 2nd Circle Mage?
“This is strange…”
Astra commented with a frown on her face.
“Hmm?”
“That’s not how Instant Spells work, even Archmage Alienora’s Instant Spells could be copied by other mages, there was no restriction like only her Mana could be used to activate those spells.”
Astra then glanced at Vaan and,
“I had my doubts before, but your Mana is different from other mages, isn’t it?”
“What do you mean?” Vaan frowned in confusion.
Astra then extended her hands towards Vaan, “Give me your hands.” She requested.
Vaan extended his hands, Astra held her son’s hand and then injected her mana inside as she closed her eyes.
Her Mana circulated throughout Vaan’s Mana Veins, then suddenly, Astra raised her eyebrow in surprise,
“Your Mana Veins are thicker than before. You are about to become a 2nd Circle Mage?”
“Isn’t that a good thing?” Vaan questioned as he glanced at the strange expression that had appeared on Astra’s face.
“This shouldn’t be possible… I checked your Mana Veins when you had passed out before, your Mana Veins weren’t this thick…”
By default, a Human’s Mana Veins are clogged or sealed, at Basic Level, that is from 1st Circle to 4th Circle, Mages open up these clogged or sealed Mana Veins. 𝚗𝞸𝗏𝑒𝓵𝐧𝐞xt.𝚌𝔬𝑀
At 1st Circle, Mages can barely Circulate Mana throughout their Mana Veins, however, as the mages progress, the Mana Veins open up, making the Mana Flow faster and easier.
Once a Mage becomes a peak 4th Circle Mage, all his Mana Veins are unclogged, releasing his utmost potential and allowing him to form the Mana Core.
It all depended on how much time and effort a Mage put into their studies and moving their Mana to open up their Mana Veins, there was no shortcut to this.
However, Vaan, who had barely become a 1st Circle Mage never practiced, his Mana Veins were clogged and his Mana flow was a Mess, and all of that was just less than a month ago, but now, as Astra circulated her Mana throughout Vaan’s Mana Veins, she could see that his Mana Veins were a lot clearer than before…
Soon, his Mana Veins would be thick enough to store a sufficient amount of Mana, enabling him to form his 2nd Circle.
That kind of absurd speed…
Astra had never heard of something like this before.
Even she, who was considered one of the most talented mages the Vesta Family had seen, needed around 2 years to form her 2nd Circle.
How did do it in just a month?
No one in the history of the Vesta Family, no, let alone Vesta Family, no one in the entire Agresia had done something like that!
The Magic records that Mages of Agresia had created in these past 5000 years, Vaan’s existence defied them all!
“Mother…?” Vaan, who didn’t know what his mother was thinking, frowned in confusion. He couldn’t understand why his mother was so surprised.
Of course, he couldn’t possibly know what his cute little Fairy friend had done when he ‘fed’ her his Mana.
Flamey just continued to observe Vaan and his mother with a curious look on her face, her innocent eyes were just adorable.
And Astra, who was trying to make sense out of this situation, blamed Vaan’s ‘strange’ Mana.
“Vaan, can you try and inject your Mana into my body?” Astra questioned. She needed to see what this Mana was, she wanted to make sure that it was safe for her child.
“Hmm? Like, injecting after circulating throughout my Mana Veins?” Vaan questioned. This was the same thing he did when he ‘fed’ Flamey his Magic.
“Yes.” Astra nodded.
“Alri-”
“Krrrriiiiiii!!!”
However, just as Vaan circulated the Mana throughout his body and was about to inject it into Astra’s body, Flamey appeared in front of him with a panic-stuck look on her face.
“Kriii!! Krriii! Krii!”
She desperately shook her head as she formed more than 50 ‘X’ with her flames. She looked into Vaan’s eyes, then, she formed a strange skull as she pointed at Astra.
“Krrii Krii!” She tried to push Vaan away from Astra, however, she was just too weak to move him.
Vaan frowned, “Are you telling me something would happen if I inject my Mana into her?” He questioned.
“Krrii! Krrii! Krrii!”
Flamey nodded desperately, forming more and more skulls in the air, she even formed a dagger on Astra’s neck.
Vaan’s expression changed,
“She… will die…?” He guessed what Flamey was trying to say and Flamey nodded again.
Vaan’s eyes widened in horror.
He quickly backed away.
Seeing him act like that, Astra frowned,
“What’s wrong?” She questioned.
“I… I cannot do what you asked, Mother…” Vaan replied.
“Why?”
“I… just can’t.” Vaan didn’t know how to explain.
Astra narrowed her eyes, however, in the end, “Alright.” She just nodded.
“Also, mother…”
Vaan called him out again.
“What is it?”
“The Vesta Underground Prison… are there any criminals that will be executed any time soon?”
