As expected, Rio didn't hear what that girl had said.
"What! You knew I went out!?" I was surprised
"Hahaha, of course I know, who do you think I am! I did not get the position of a Grand Duke just by my face," my father, Amane, laughed, which was not pleasant, but he was right. After coming to Wynmar, I came to know that my father was one of the strongest swordsmen in the history of this world. The same goes for my mother; she is a 9-circle 8-star mage, after the legendary hero who had built this nation, who was a 10-circle mage; my mother was very close to it . After coming here, I did some digging and found out that most of the mages are 5 or 6 circle, expert or prestige had only 8-circle, but my mother was a 9-circle mage. I forgot I still don't know how circle & star work, but Mina told me that a circle has a star embedded in it, the first circle has 1 star & as the circle increases, the number of stars also increases.
"Anyway, how was the town?" My father asked me, which brought me out of my thoughts.
"It was good & everyone looked happy to explore," I said, sharing my sincere feeling.
"Of course, I am the one who is governing it!" He said proudly & I can agree with that.
Knock, Knock; We heard a Knock and "Come In." My father said, in a probably hand-entered, somewhat serious tone. He is the Grand Duke mode.
He never fails to amuse me. It's good that he handled the estate with sincerity.
"Sorry for disturbing my lord, but we have to go to the royal palace immediately." A person who looked in his late 50s came & spoke politely. He was the personal butler of my father, Sauto.
"Why, what happened?!" My father asked.
"My lord, it is something urgent. The King, himself, asked for your presence, and it is not told why we are going, my apologies."
"Alright, pack the necessities, I will come in a few minutes." After that, he went out
"Haa, Rio, can you tell your mother about this. I have to hurry up and go. See you!" Without waiting for my response, he sprinted out. It must be something serious; he never went out without saying bye to mother. Anyway, let's get back to work.
"It's time for Aurelia's training..." I had changed into my nightclothes as I lay on the bed...
Time to sleep, sweet dreams.
I tried to sleep, but today's incident kept repeating in my mind.
"Haa... I can't sleep." As I went out of my room, everyone was asleep. Just then, I heard someone sing. Her voice is like that of an angel. Before I knew, I fell asleep.
'Hey! You are late.' As soon as I fell asleep, A came into the dream world.
"Yeah, many things were going on, so I couldn't sleep," I replied.
'Haa, what am I going to do with you? Anyway, from today, I am going to teach you how to use your mana.'
"But I already know how to use magic," I said.
'Your way is too inefficient, it takes mana but produces less output.' She said while creating 2 fireballs in her hand. '
If currently I am giving equal amt. of mana to both fireball, but if I use my mana efficiently, then showing one of the fireball grow about 10 fold.
"Currently you are taking in it, you get about 60% output of your mana. We have to take it to 80% in 5 years.'
"Huh! It will take 5 years!" I was shaked, as It looked easy when she demonstrated.
'Hahaha, bow, I can do it anytime & my output is 100% of input.' She was laughing, but it was all laughter.
Are you sure she is a Goddess, not a demon?
'Hey! That was very rude! If not for him, I won't even look at you;' she said, no, shouted.
I woke up, "huh! She let me go that easily."
Training to increase my output was hellish. I had to use boost spell over & over until my mana ran dry.
"Young Master. Your mother wanted to see--"
"Aagh, go out, at least knock Arisa!!"
"Huh, why are you ashamed, you are 16-year old boy, even yours th-" Before she could continue, I shouted.
"GO OUT PLEASE !!!"
