34 Chapter 34: Mentor

Chapter 34: Mentor

~Silva POV~

Hmm…

After returning back to the guild hall everyone seemed to chill after Gray notified me explaining what happened earlier today causing me to sigh in relief seeing the Guild members were surprisingly trusting in my words.

And with the fact Makarov got notified being a public stunt for the Magic Council to proclaim their show of power of control the Guild chill but still anxious to see their favorite scarlet-haired family member return.

Ignoring the commotion I returned back to the Guild Library seeing that Levy isn't around. Such a shame really, she's really like her books.

But disregarding the books I went to pick up the theory of Magic Creation and Magic Eye concepts reading everything I could about it.

The reason why I'm researching more about Eye Magic is because I would need to have one to look not only afar but to help locate people a lot easier in the future.

I have Spectator for that but it helps having a spell on hand to deal with that issue. I'm hoping to create the Eyes of Tuatha Da as my own seeing the usefulness of such a spell or Eye Magic in my skill set.

Flipping through some of the books taking my time reading the book containing about Eye Magic to learn. Eye Magic is a Caster Magic that involves using eye techniques for battle.

This Magic allows the users to enchant or entice their target with their Magic through the use of making direct contact with their eyes.

Depending on the Magic, the user can either attack or defend themselves with their eye technique in order to battle, scan the area, or both in combination with their attack.

Hmm…

*Shiii*

Ah…

Feeling some painful pinches coursing through my eyes stopping myself from manipulating my Mana into my eyes even having my hand stopping it raised like I was trying to stop something that wasn't there, "Fuck… that got to be the dumbest thing I have done since all day today. Putting Mana into my eyes…"

Rubbing my eyes a few times and squinting to make sure I have my vision intact I looked over to the windows above sitting a sunset.

Feeling tired and disappointed for the day I decided to return back to my apartment to rest up for tomorrow's training session I'm going to need to create some skills using my <Mana Manipulation> to have it at perfect control.

*Thud*

Slopping down on my bed and taking the time to relax I decided to go open that chest reward I got from the previous quest.

For now, though it's time to decide to place my bet on this box since I've been only choosing Blessed Boxes for a while now. Time to choose Cursed Box this time.

[Ding!]

[You have chosen the Cursed Chest Box!]

Picking that and seeing the box I opened it up as soon as I did, so the light particles began to sparkle down appeared making the box disappear to transform into a book that looks demonic or extremely weird looking in nature.

I arched an eyebrow at this. Wonder why I would need this item in the future?

<Observe>.

Item: The Complete Book of The World – Rongo Rongo

Rarity Item: SS

Type: Magic Book

Description: The book contained every single map in the world. The information about this world's territories was especially detailed and included every detail about the mountains and lands. On the last page, there was a prediction of natural disasters that will happen in the future.

Rongo Rongo also contained some information regarding specific Magical Tools lost to time as well as updating locations hinting that it also contained other information to locate Lost and Ancient Magic.

The Book contains extensive information regarding every continent and country of the world, along with different languages.

----

What the hell…

This thing is a fucking cheat!

Flipping through the pages of the book my eyes widen in shock seeing certain locations in Fiore to locate specific items lost to time or important blueprints of buildings layout as well as descriptions of what contained them.

This is OP.

Viewing the book contains information about where all the Dark Guilds are located in the Fiore Map with descriptions of being hidden along with a few Tartarus locations where the demon guild has outposts around some parts of the continent.

Reading the book some more there were apparently some dungeons located on some specific parts of the map along with a few that haven't been discovered yet with detailed maps of the dungeons.

Looks like I have some farming spots to grind but probably when I'm at a higher level. But first I have to deal with my Mana control first because that's becoming a major hindrance at the moment.

Although it's not like I was hoping I could use Celestial Spirit Magic to begin with since it later become nearly extinct in the series with only a select few people to be able to use that Magic.

The princess, Lucy, and that girl from Sabertooth.

Sigh…

That was when I heard a voice I haven't heard in a while phase her way in looking at me with a bemused expression, "Oh did I come at a bad time?"

My head soon turned to meet Mavis as I smiled while replying to her happily putting away Rongo Rongo, "Not at all Mavis. Just the usual of minding my own business and wallowing in my disappointment."

She made an ah expression in understanding as I continued talking standing up then leaning back of my chair responding for Miss Fairy Tactician, "Anyway welcome back. Managed to find what you were looking for to help me out? Seems like Erza might have caught on about me."

She blinks a bit before replying to me about the latest national news occurring throughout the Kingdom, "I heard. I felt it when you took the job eliminating the Eisenwald Guild. Kind of hard not to notice nor get better at hiding yourself in plain sight if you are plastered all over the news."

I sheepishly rubbed my head at that one.

She sighs at me before getting close to me enough for eye level as she began to talk to me about my predicament, "Sigh… Anyway, I managed to find a way to help conceal your Magic Power leakage. Can you please show me your Guild Mark?"

Doing as I was told I leveled my Guild Mark that was on the backside of my left hand as she places her hands over it.

*Shiii*

[Ding!]

[Host has been cast the Enchant Magic Power Suppressor!]

[Notice: The Enchant on your Guild Emblem will ensure any level-ups done in the future shall be concealed not revealing your exponential growth rising along with your Magic Power.]

Damn…

Mavis being a real friend helping me out in my time of need I never knew I needed till now.

Thank you loli-sensei!

My guild mark shined brightly for a few minutes then returned to normal as Mavis began to explain to me what she did exactly with a confident smirk on her, "There. That should help regulate your Magic Power from popping up again. It did take me a while to read through my old books back home but found the right spell for this."

Gazing over I didn't feel much of a change but regardless though Mavis came out of her way to help me out and for that, she has my thanks.

Leveling my head at her direction I thanked her immensely for the help she made for me, "Thanks Mavis. Really appreciate you for helping me out."

She smiles and grins smugly at my attention towards her floating around asking me what I have been doing, "So… care to tell what you have been doing as of late?"

To that I sheepishly rubbed the back of my head explaining the situation of me studying Eye Magic to be precise as she nods her head cutely.

Standing up and raising my arms up stretching my muscles Mavis then pointed something out to me with surprise, "Huh? Were you always that muscularly compacted? Last I checked you were a bit on the tubby side?"

Oh?

She must be mentioning my sudden change of appearance since I look slimmer compacted muscular build or light body builder form as I replied in a casual tone, "Nah. I just work out to get where I am every day. Complete 100 Push-Ups. Complete 100 Curl Ups. Complete 100 Squats. And finally, to Complete 10 Km of Running."

Flexing to point out Mavis merely questioned me with doubt waving her hand at me clearly not believing me with a deadpan expression, "Yeah… no way. Either that or you took Magic Pills or Magic Steroids I'll believe that… which I'll check if you did or not. Now if you excuse me, I will go haunt your apartment room in peace."

Fair point.

Simply allowing her to float around my rented apartment room as I sigh at this.

Might make the time to train or create some more skills in peace though since I have the time before Natsu tries to take the S-Class request.

Hmm…

I should get back to training again and probably go with training some hand-to-hand combat just in case I'm unarmed. I should probably ask Mavis about some methods to help improve my control over Magic first before anything else.

Turning my head around to where Mavis is trying to find if I had any Magic Steroids I cleared my voice getting her attention, "Ahem! Say Mavis you are pretty wise when it comes to magic when you were living right?"

She paused at that turning around and floating to me with a bemused expression written on her face but responded, "In a way yes. I have taught the first generation being the ever first Fairy Tail Guild Master. I know my way around Magic."

She looks at her nails as she explained as I followed up with my next question getting her attention immediately with a grin, "In that case can you spare me your time teaching me how do I properly and quite possibly help manage my own Magic Power properly? I'm having a hard time controlling it because I for lack of a better term lack an Origin. You know the one every mage has, right?"

She immediately took out a piece of paper and wooden charcoal at the ready replying to me with starry eyes excitement in her tone, "Thought you would never ask!! I have been somewhat interested in you and your training methods that completely differ from normal mages. I have some theories about the idea and possibility of training you. I'm too curious to see how you react and treat Magic differently than most. You came to the right gal for the job!!"

Well… someone's certainly over-prepared and too excited about this.

I thought maybe she has some insight that I lack in my <Mana Manipulation>. But it appears to me now, she's just as clueless as I am about progressing further in my training to control my Mana.

At the very least though having a genius guiding me with her own ideas is an excellent start in the right direction.

That was when Mavis got closer to me as I felt she sensed me with her Magic Sense she raised a finger to her chin in a thinker position as she spoke curiously, "Hmm… interesting. Silva I want you to test out a few things for me why you haven't converted the Ethernano in the air into Magic Power yet? By doing some few test I might have an idea why you can't use Magic. It's a hypothesis but I think the issue might rely on your spirit itself, but I can't confirm anything till we do a few test."

Sounds like Mavis found an issue why I can't be able to do Magic yet. Nodding my head I agreed to do any test to find out why I haven't been able to conjure magic yet any insight would be helpful.

Now it's time to return to the grind.
