�How can I learn magic? Does it require special powers?�

�I don�t know what special powers you�re talking about, but it does take a lot of mental strength.�

It was an unexpectedly lackluster answer.�

�That�s really it? Does that mean you can fly in the sky when you think of the wind?�

�Well, that�s difficult to answer. But to add a little exaggeration, yes. Of course, it�s not just ordinary thoughts. The mage�s consciousness must coincide with the world. An extremely sensitive state of mind, for instance.�

Alpheas� serious expression prevented the children from intervening.

�What is a sensitive state of mind?�

Alpheas smiled.

�This isn�t curiosity. He�s really planning on learning magic!�

On the contrary, it was concerning.

�It�s unfortunate, but he�s a commoner. He won�t be able to get a formal education. If I were to encourage him further, he would only be more dejected later on.�

Alpheas looked back at the students, with the intention of cutting off the flow of the conversation before it went any deeper.

�When a mage focuses, his mind becomes sensitive enough to sense everything around him. Mages call this as entering the Spirit Zone. I�ll show you a demonstration, so watch what this child does. Shuamin, would you like to enter the Spirit Zone?�

�Yes, headmaster.�

A girl with braids answered confidently.

It was natural for them to show off their skills, because they were born with extraordinary talents.

Shuamin closed her eyes and the other children created a reverent atmosphere on their own.

As if such an attitude proved their own superiority.

�I entered the Zone.�

�Then let�s get started.�

Alpheas, who took out a coin, shook it in his hand. Suddenly, he clenched his hand and held it out.

�Now, how many coins are in my hand?�

�Six.�

When he opened his hand, there were exactly six silver coins.

Alpheas repeated it for a second time as Shirone watched with a surprised look.

�Three.�

Once again, that was the correct answer. JrNovels.com
