Chapter 234 Trying to teach
When Kretos heard what Afeus said he looked confused. \'What does this guy want me to teach him?... Also....\'
"Who the heck is your master?! Is your head actually working properly?" Kretos looked at Afeus dumbfounded. He couldn\'t understand why this boy in front of him was acting this way. Didn\'t he just show him a simple spell, why did he suddenly call him master?
"You are the master I wish to learn from. You might not have your old memories, but I\'m convinced that you were an amazing commander that could use arcane magic." Afeus excitedly spoke.
"Huh? Why do you want to learn from me? Was the magic I use special somehow.? That was just a simple concentrated ball of mana." The moment Afeus heard what Kretos said he quickly bowed his head again, this time it was an even deeper bow.
\'Concentrating mana into a ball?! What the f*cking heck is that?! How can you concentrate mana into a ball-shaped object?! Aren\'t spells derived from the elementals?!\' Afeus was confused by what Kretos said, but he knew instantly that concentrating mana was a far greater feat than using high-class spells. Anyone could high-class spells as long as they had enough mana and training, but what Kretos did was something entirely different from what he knew.
"Please teach me your ways master. I will do anything as long as it doesn\'t involved money... Wait it doesn\'t matter, I will even give you all my money."
"Shut up, and explain to me what you want properly."
"As you wish, master." Once Afeus started calling him master, Kretos was starting to get a bit tired talking to Afeus.
"The way you perform spells is something I haven\'t seen before. Even the Grand Mage hasn\'t done it. In my knowledge, no in everyone\'s knowledge spells are the things the elementals grant us as our affinity with them grows stronger. The elementals are the beings that are one with the mana of the world itself. Through our understanding of them will the spells we can use grow. But what you did was something no one I know has ever done before. We were all too focused on better understanding the elementals, that we neglected to find our own way to use spells. Spells that can be used without the help of the elementals."
Afeus looked a bit lethargic as he continued speaking.
"No, some did try to use spells without the help of elementals, but that only led to disasters. The moment they used the power of their own mana without relying on the incantations of the elementals, their mana imploded. Now they can never use mana again. Yet you master were able to use mana in a way that has no need for the elementals."
Hearing what Afeus said Kretos started to remember some things. \'Elementals?... I do remember them, it\'s like basic knowledge to me. I think there was a time that I had a fight with some elemental beings, elemental lords. They denied me access to spells, so I needed to figure out a way to use my own style spell... I wish I could remember more than that.\'
Afeus was silently staring at Kretos who was holding his head again. \'Every time he did that he would regain a bit of his memory. Maybe he was recalling how he was able to use that spell that didn\'t require any use of the elementals.\'
"Can you control the mana in your body to enhance your strength?" Kretos suddenly asked Afeus.
"You mean strengthening magic? Everyone can use strengthening magic. Hear me o elementals, please offer my body great strength upon thy guidance [Enhance Strength]." After speaking the spell words and using the activation word, Afeus could feel his strength doubling.
"That\'s not what I mean... When I said to enhance your strength by controlling the mana in your body, I didn\'t mean you use a spell. I meant something like this." Kretos started circulating the mana in his body, and the same as the spell he used before he did it without a spell chant. He once again simply used his own mana, it was obvious to Afeus that Kretos didn\'t use the power of elementals to enhance his body.
"How do you do that? What\'re the principles behind your use of mana? Do you lose favor from the elementals if you use these spells? How much mana is needed to perform your spells, or is it perhaps that the mana can be varied and the quality of the spell depends on the mana itself? Oh, so much to learn, so much to see."
Afeus eyes turned crazed as he approached Kretos. He no longer was bowing his head as he spoke in his crazed manner. In Afeus\'s eyes, Kretos was a treasure of unknown knowledge, and he intends to get every single bit of knowledge.
...
While Kretos was being aggressively persuaded by Afeus, Valdel was now in a lobby of the Temple of Justice. The temple was located northwest from the Reschbeauch Kingdom. It was a mighty looking temple that made every fortress he has seen in both the Reschbeauch kingdom and the Serbek Kingdom look like fortresses made by little people.
After learning of Ren\'s disappearance and hearing the reports of numerous demons infiltrating the different human kingdoms, Valdel felt oddly calm. He remembered Ren\'s teachings at this moment. The enemy one must face is never clear. The distinction between right and wrong is a hazy one. Since everyone has their own definition of right and wrong. That would mean that the enemy is just someone that thinks he\'s in the right and you are in the wrong.
\'For the very justice, I believe, I must not make a mistake. I mustn\'t point my blade at the wrong enemy. For now, I need to learn more about these demons and what their real goal is. As for Ren,\' Valdel couldn\'t help but smile thinking about his friend. \'If he learns that I was worried about him for even a second he would just look at me as if I was stupid.\'
As Valdel was thinking about that, he heard someone calling him.
"Sir Valdel, the high priest can meet you now."
