Chapter 65:It works for some, for others it doesn't.

It was 9:30 when Adryan left his house and was now in a carriage on his way to Hillston Borough, where after 2 weeks he would finally have classes with Isengar again.

*Click* *Clack*

While he was in the carriage, Adryan was still somewhat uncomfortable from what had happened before so now he is opening and closing Hangover Time to calm down.

*Click*

'Squeezing a fireball is much more calming but this already helps me distract myself'

*Clack*

Although the blinking of the pocket watch distracted him, it annoyed the driver who was shooting him several glances, obviously Adryan knew this but didn't care.

As he tried to think of anything else he couldn't help but remember his performance at the Tarot Club which caused a mischievous smile to form on his face.

'Joining the Tarot Club so early might have been totally an accident but that doesn't mean I didn't take advantage of it~'

*Click*

'The personality that I decided to use within the Club would be the know-it-all Bully type who does not and will not mince words to provoke all the members.'

'Audrey and Alger's reactions were so funny after all~.'

*Clack*

Remembering how Audrey and Alger were glaring daggers at him caused a short dark laugh to come out of him, which made the driver who was glaring at him freak out and stop looking at him.

'Come on, my laugh isn't that bad~' thought Adryan amused when he saw the reaction of the driver who was sweating cold.

Letting out another laugh, Adryan looked out the window at the streets of Backlund while the driver just quickened the horse's pace.

'Why did I have to lift a crazy man?' thought the driver resigned...

....

"I hope you haven't forgotten to study in the weeks we didn't have class my student" Isengar said calmly as he took a puff from his pipe and Adryan just smiled in response.

He had arrived at the detective's house a few moments ago and had been received by the servant.

"It's been a quiet few weeks, teacher, I must say that I needed this break but I'm ready to resume classes" the redhead lied skillfully and Isengar just nodded.

This wasn't a complete lie after all. Adryan Kenway did have a pretty uneventful week staying home all day to sleep or eat...while James Holmes had an extremely busy two weeks from surviving an ambush and fighting back, to robbing and destroying a gang, of exploring a human carnage and surviving a huge explosion and in the process discovering a hidden Devil and reporting it to the three churches to deal with.

Not knowing any of these facts Isengar just took another puff on his pipe and spoke.

"That's good to hear, Adryan, after what happened you needed a break, putting that aside this time we'll study something different."

Raising a red brow, Adryan watched as Isengar blew out some smoke.

"Do you know what Spirit Vision is?" Isengar asked with a small smile and Adryan's eyes widened slightly at this.

"Yes I know what it is Teacher Isengar, Spirit Vision allows a Beyonder to glimpse into non-physical parts of a human."

"They can observe the auras exuded by the Ether Body or the Ether Body itself, which allows them to discover the presence of any being that has a spiritual body; either by its intensity, brightness, and color"

Isengar nodded and asked with a raised eyebrow.

"That is correct my student so I guess you already know how to use spirit vision?"

Unashamedly Adryan gave Isengar a smile as he answered.

"No"

Adryan's response made Isengar's eyebrow twitch and he nearly broke his pipe with his grip.

Giving a small sigh, Isengar gave Adryan an awkward smile.

"Considering you know what it is, I'm seriously surprised that you don't know how to use it..."

Adryan sighed as he shrugged.

"It's not for lack of trying Teacher, no matter how many times I tried, I couldn't even activate it"

He had already tried to use the same method that old Neil had used to teach Klein but no matter how hard or how many times he tried he couldn't activate the Spirit Vision.

This had made him think that there may be different ways to learn Spirit Vision and that the method used by old Neil and Klein was the best for the Seer and Mystery Prier, not for a Hunter like him.

"Oh~"

Isengar at the information put a hand to his chin while raising an eyebrow.

"Could you tell me which method you were using?" the detective asked curiously and Adryan answered.

Listening to the explanation of the redhead, Isengar only nodded from time to time while a smile formed on his face and when Adryan finished his explanation he just laughed.

This made Adryan look at him with a flat face.

"My student, that method does work, the problem is that it is much more oriented towards the Beyonders of the Seer and Mystery Prier pathways, if any Beyonder of the Hunter's path tried to use this method to activate their spiritual vision they would never succeed"

"This is due to the enormous difference in spirituality between one and the other."

"In fact, hunters can only learn spirit vision in sequence 8 but it would be practically useless due to their weak spirituality, it is better for a hunter to be sequence 7 to be able to use it due to the increase in power and amount of their spirituality."

Adryan listened to all this with a flat face and at the end of the explanation he spoke in an awkward voice.

"So in all those attempts I was trying to collect water in a strainer?"

"Exactly" Isengar replied with a smile while one of Adryan's eyebrows trembled.
