"That was the short version?" He said, after hearing the Explanation from Ms. Jennah.
*nod*
"How that was the short version, I feel like having an extra class after school when I heard your explanation just now," Taufik complained, but still thankful for the information that Ms. Jennah just said.
Ms Jinnah who heard Taufik complain, had a pained expression, remembered a bed of memories from her childhood, then said.
"Yeah, that was the short version of how humans can use magic; if you heard the short version, you already like this; maybe you will faint when I tell you the original story. The book that contained that history was so thick, maybe like 7 cm or more... I don't know why they write it so detail like that...why they don't just write it simply like 'Nero who wants to have more power summoning a devil by sacrificing his subject then asking the devil to give him magic, then the devil who heard Nero request then Reactivating the MANA that has been sleeping for a long time in earth's atmosphere with any means, then give Nero the method of how to use mana, but because the irresponsible method that devil's used, the MANA on earth become Corrupted' why they don't make it that simple? it's not a guidebook anymore but a book about Nero's Life history; when I was a kid and starting to learn magic, they forced me to read that whole book; can you imagine that? they force an 8-year-old kid to read that thick book; where's the humanity gone?... Just remembering those times makes my whole body Goosebumps, I know what they're trying to tell us with that book, but WTH?"
"..."
Taufik was speechless at the words of his teacher, Who behaved differently than the usual calm, mature, and 'Onee-san' vibe teacher he knew.
'Is this what they call a 'Gap Moe' it's so cute... Eh~ No... Taufik, You need to wake up, remember her age'
Said Taufik, who argued to himself inside his mind.
'But I'm a vampire, age it's just some numbers for me, so I will SMASH!!!'
He thought, having given up on nature.
"... Cute"
Taufik unconsciously says, then realizes what have he done, and quickly looks at Ms. Jennah.
Hearing Taufik's words, Ms Jennah was confused at first but remembered what she had done, then blushed.
"Cough~cough~cough~ what are you saying to your teacher? Don't call an adult " Cute" That's rude"
Ms. Jennah said firmly, but her face betrayed her efforts.
She's no stranger to flattery, especially from men who have a crush on her, but they always say the same thing, like 'You are so beautiful', 'I always like mature women so I like you (:v)' and the like, but no one ever told her that she was 'cute', she always looks calm and mature, because her job as a teacher, so when she heard Taufik calling her cute she was caught off the guard and then blushed.
"Why? I'm honest though, you look cute when you let out your true self"
Taufik said, looking directly into Ms. Jennah's eyes.
Heard that, Ms. Jennah blushed more and more, then quickly raised her hand and waved it at him, saying...
"Ahhhh! Stop it, it's enough, don't embarrass me any more than this let's back to the topic it's getting late already, we have to get out of this forest before sunset"
Ms. Jennah said, trying to change the topic.
"Hahaha~ how cute"
Taufik says, looking at her behavior.
Ms. Jenna tried to calm herself, then continued to explain more to Taufik
"*ukhum~* Alright, so now you know about MANA right? So do you understand now how important your pure MANA is, right?"
Ms. Jennah asked him.
"Yeah~"
hearing him, ms. Jenneh nodded her head, then continued to explain.
"Magician Realm divided from beginner < Disciple < Intermediate < Advance < Master < and Grandmaster, they said there is Realm that more higger then Grandmaster, but not a single person has crossed that Realm so that Realm considered as myths only And because of that contaminated MANA, someone can't absorb MANA too much in one day, because if they absorb too much-contaminated MANA without filtering It first, That will corrupt their mind, And if that was the case, That person will recklessly attack any living being that they see, we call this case as Demonized...
Said Ms. Jennah and then stopped for a while to catch her breath.
...."Demonized", it was a problem That accidentally or deliberately happens when some magician absorbs too much MANA at one time, and because of this problem, the magician hides their existence from the outside world, we are afraid that if normal humans know about the existence of MANA, they will absorb it without a proper method, if that happens they only will end up being demonized"
"Humans on Earth are born with a Core, so every human in this world has The same chance to become a magicians, but the chance of them being a magician is small"
Add Ms. Jennah at the end of her speech.
...
...
"... And Here is the problem, if we magicians want to Ascend to the higher Realm we need to absorb The Mana, but the process of filtering that Contaminated MANA is long and Dangerous, fortunately, MANA has Atribut that will make us look young and regressed in age But even with that, The Only Magician who recorded that ever achieved The Grandmaster Realm is only one, and That is our Robins Unknown Ancestor"
After hearing Ms. Jannah Long's explanation, Taufik's view of The magician world is changed.
"Hmmm, I see bu-"
*Tring~tring~tring*
But before Taufik could say something, his phone was ringing.
"...Wait a minute, I have to pick up the phone"
Said Taufik and Ms. Jennah just nodded her head in respond
Taufik then picks up his phone and sees the one who calls him is His mother; he immediately answers the call.
"Hello, mom?"
'Hmm, where are you now?'
"Yahh? What happened?"
'Nothing, the meeting ended faster than I thought, so I will be home, hmm maybe, 06.00 PM or more, but I remember the ingredients at home have almost run out, So I just want to ask you what you want to eat for dinner, and I will buy the ingredients on my way back home later'
Hearing his mom want, Taufik looked at the time on his phone and saw it was already 05.35 PM, Taufik panicked.
"... I-I'm fine with anything Mom"
'Eh, but are you-
"Ahh~ I'm sorry Mom, I will end the call now, I'm in the toilet, I love you"
*Click~*
Taufik look at Ms. Jennah said.
"I'm sorry miss, I will go now, thank you for your information"
Then picks his stuff, then wants to go.
"Eh?"
Seeing Taufik who wants to leave her, ms. Jennah calls him again, she still has something she wants to ask him.
"Wa-wait... WAIT!! I want to ask you something"
Hearing ms. Jennah, Taufik stops his step and then looks at Ms. Jennah.
"What is it? make it quick, I have to go home before 06.00 PM"
"Okay... So-"
Seeing Ms. Jennah was hesitant to say what She wanted to say, Taufik hurried her.
"Hy~ if you don't want to tell me then don't, I will just leave now"
"No~ no~ please hear me"
Then Ms. Jennah explains his situation to Taufik, About how she was born with a different situation than the others, and her core that more bigger than the others, and about her problem.
"That's why, if I want to ascend to a higher realm I have to absorb much MANA than the others, but an intermediate realm is my limit because my mentor said higher than this was too dangerous for me"
Taufik digests what Ms. Jennah said for a while, then asks.
"Hmmm, then what can I help you?"
"... Actually, when I saw your pure MANA, I saw a hope to ascend to the higher realm, so if you don't mind, can you share your method with me... Please?"
"..."
'How can I share my method with you? If my Mana is already like this when I become a vampire... Wait?'
Taufik then smiled.
"I can tell you the method right now... actually it is quite simple"
"Really? You can?"
Hearing that Ms. Jennah became happy, but her happiness didn't last long.
"Yeah, first you just need to lay down, then I will suck a little bit of your liquid, and boom, you have the same pure MANA as me, simple right?"
Taufik said while grinning.
"..."
Heard what Taufik said, Ms. Jennah's Face became as red as a tomato.
"Yo-you, if you don't want to tell me, then just said so; why do you have to say it like that... You pervert"
Then, running out of the Forest, leaving Taufik behind.
"Hahaha~ how cute"
