Chapter 3:- magic and more.

I went straight to the grandpa Gideon house,

Grandma lily I am here, where are you?

After shouting for a while grandpa Gideon came outside the houyse and said

Oh! Avil you are here, go to the backyard you will find lily there.

Okay grandpa Gideon , Avil replied and dash towards the backyard,

As avil was very excited to learn magic, after seeing some people use magic,

Avil always wanted to learn magic but couldn't ask anyone as grandpa Rolland didn't know how to use magic except for some daily purpose magic which he got after awakening.

But finally the day has come when I can finally learn magic, Avil thought inside his own head.

Grandma lily, where are you?

Shouted avil,

I have come to learn magic from you, where are you grandma lily?

When Avil went inside the backyard, he saw grandma lily was gardening some herbs and flower.

Grandma lily! What are you doing?

Asked Avil,

Oh Avil you are here! Come inside quickly, said Grandma lily

Grandma lily you remember our promise right, you promised to teach me magic like you,

Said Avil in a very childish voice,

Of course I remember our promise Avil, just give me moment okay, till then here eat this fruit,

Then she handed me a fruit which was purple in colour and had some white patches on it,

As soon as I bite into the fruit, a splash of sweetness entered my mouth and a very relaxing energy flowed through my whole body, its was like a very healing energy just recovered my energy.

Its such a tasty fruit grandma lily what is this fruit?

Said Avil

Did you like it? It's called the wild mercy fruit, It is mainly used to make potions and medicine, it can also increase your energy to some extent.

Said grandma lily,

Where did you get these from Grandma lily

Asked Avil,

Oh! I grow this in my backyard only, see there are few more but they aren't ripped yet.

Not everyone can grow this you know, there is a secret behind to make these fruits grow properly.

Said grandma lily,

What's the secret grandma Lily?

Um I will tell you the secret after your magic training, how does that sound to you?

Said grandma lily

Of course, I am very excited to learn how to use magic.

Ok do you know Avil where does magic comes from?

No grandma lily! Where does it come from?

It comes from inside of every living and mystical being around us.

Plants, animal, monsters everyone has magic inside them. But then you will ask how magic comes from them too right?

Yes grandma lily? I am very confused!

Said Avil,

When the world was created, it was created around a very big magic crystal, so our world has a very big magic crystal inside of it,

But as the time went on passing by the magic crystal started to get crushed due to the pressure of the world, and hence the magic crystal was divide and spread throughout the underground land of the world.

As the crystals started to come out on the surface of the world, the magical energy started to make different objects, such as plants, animals, monster, humans and beastkins.

After a while these crystal started to get mixed with other rocks and material which led to creation of different types of material.

Every living being has magical energy inside them which are known as Mana.

Every person has different quantity of mana inside them and one can increase their mana simply by training.

So now you understand why we all have mana inside us?

Yes grandma Lily, but I don't understand one thing grandma lily?

Said Avil,

Yes? What would that be that you didn't understand Avil?

Who created the magical stones then grandma Lily?

Oh that was created by the primordial gods,

Said Grandma Lily,

Understood, and grandma I have heard that monster have mana stones inside them, is that true grandma?

Not all monster have stones inside them, only some high ranking monsters have stones inside them,

Do you know why they stones inside them Avil?

Why grandma Lily? Avil asked,

Its because the monster are the byproduct of themagic crystal, they have less intelligence but they absorb more magical power than us human and they don't know how to purify the mana hence they have a mana core inside the body.

Some of them have big while some of them have large mana core depending on the intake of the mana.

Hence some of the high ranking monster have bigger mana core than low ranking monsters.

Okay grandma I understand.

Anything else you are curious about Avil?

Yes grandma, why do we human have status, who gave it to us?

The god gave it to us Avil? You might aky why right?

Yeah grandma why?

Because when the world was created the balance of power was equal and hence there were no problems but after sometime monster stared to grow at an exponential speed and hence to save humanity from getting wiped out god grants us the power of the status.

You will also get your status when you will be twelve years old, you know why?

Why Grandma Lily?

God grants us status late so that we would write our own destiny and not depend on the status for the survival.

Wow! Grandma lily how do you know about all of this?

You see I have lot of experience and really liked reading since I was a little child.

Oh! I see.

Okay now you know what is mana so I will teach you how to first gather your mana,

Are you ready Avil?

Yes grandma Lily, I am supper ready?

So what should I do Grandma lily?

Okay so now close your eyes Avil.

Said grandma Lily.

Okay, then I closed my eyes.

What do you see Avil?

Um! How can I see anything with my eyes closed grandma Lily?

I see absolutely nothing.

Its not about seeing it rather its about the feeling, try to feel energy around you,

What energy grandma?

Every person perceives mana differently, so just try to imagine a energy which is deep and abundant around you,

Ok grandma!

Then I started to concentrate, for a while I didn't feel anything but after a while a energy started to elope my body,

It was one of the most comfortable feeling,

Grandma lily! I feel the energy, what should I do next?

After hearing this grandma lily was kind of shocked,

But she still remained calmed she said,

Now imagine this energy getting absorbed inside of your body,

Imagine it getting stored inside your heart,

Then I started to try absorbing the mana, I didn't grasp it at first but after a while I started to absorb the mana into my heart.

Do you feel a glow in your heart Avil,

That's your mana pool, every person has different type of size of mana pool, and one can expand his mana pool by training and leveling up.

Now slowly start to fill your pool, don't rush it otherwise your pool will explode and you will die,

No pressure by the way, just slow and steady ok!

Avil after hearing this suddenly shrugged

He was now thinking how to calm down, after a few while he calmed and now was steadily absorbing mana,

While all of this was happening, Grandma lily thought to herself that

Usually it takes a kid at least 1 hour time but he did it in few minutes,

It seems like he has a high affinity for magic, but it would go to waste if he didn't had affinity for elemental magic,

After a while Avil had almost filled up his mana pool and said to grandma lily,

While he slowly open his eyes

Grandma lily done!
