"Alf, I know you are awesome with magic and spells and I think from how much I know about you, I can say this much that you learned this spell today or maybe last night, right?" I asked with a serious tone and sharp eyes.

And I knew this sudden behavior of mine would surprise everyone in the room.

It was necessary for this young brother of mine, though. And I knew from Rein\'s face that she knew what I meant.

"Y-yes. That\'s right, brother Eon. I learned that one this morning." And as I knew, Alf answered with a hesitant voice.

Though there were some gasps from Rein\'s mom and dad, we all knew just how good Alf was with magic.

His talent was undeniable, and I knew he would have figured it out if he had paid attention but, if he keeps this mistake, he will have problems in the future against opponents like me or Rein who can directly see through things.

Sighing at him, I turned my face around and pointed at the left side of the room.

Everyone looked at that side, and as we knew, there were Alf\'s barriers at the very inside of this room.

"You were the last one to put these barriers and you most definitely did it because you thought \'all are doing this cool thing~! Let me do one too~!\' or something like that, right?" I asked with a funny smile to alleviate some of his tension.

Though this was serious, this wasn\'t some punishment or lecture to him.

I was just pointing out his mistake for him to improve those first.

"I knew we weren\'t doing this for fun! But yes... I did it without much thinking." He first shouted and then his voice sank, and he looked down.

Looks like he started to understand his mistake.

"Good. Now, look at this newly learned spell that you put masterfully." I said, and he looked at me, or the fork I was painting at that side of the barrier.

A small arrow of wind manifested before the fork and then, the winds turned red and a fire started at the tip of the wind arrow.

All eyes were locked on me this time and this was probably the first time any of them were seeing me use magic.

And this magic of mine...

"Flawless~." Rein and her grandma said at the same time as dad and the second uncle gasped at this one.

This was the flawless execution of a simple (tier-2) Mana spell that I made myself.

This spell was just a simple wind arrow with the flame tip, a dual element arrow or spell that harmonized with each other so perfectly that it looked like there was only one attribute in use.

These were the fruits of my death-inducing training with my dear master, and I knew this level of mastery was something they can only see in someone like Rein\'s grandma.

This was refined beyond belief and when they said flawless... they meant it.

The small arrow which was barely the size of my finger shot forward at the place I was pointing like a beam of laser, leaving a red tail behind it.

Everyone only saw the tail and not even dad saw the actual spell at that speed and was amazed.

And it was as if the moment the spell left the fork, a sound of glass breaking echoed in this room and the invisible spell broke and shattered into pieces.

A (tier-3) defensive spell just broke by a small, low-power (tier-2) spell.

And this thing enlightened my dear little brother.

"The spell is wrong!!" Alf shouted, realizing what had just happened, and I smiled at him for being so smart.

"Exactly. Your execution of the spell itself was excellent, but with this new spell you learned, this fire and water element barrier, even though the element called the negative effects, there were two weak spots.

And although these weak spots were practically invisible, I know grandma and Rein saw them too." I paused for a moment and my sharp gaze softened. So did this gentle smile.

"Alf, you are a specially gifted person who can process spells like no other.

You don\'t have to rely on the spells others have made and use those spells just because they are powerful.

You are strong yourself, and I know you have all the knowledge you need so, you don\'t have to use what others use.

Just make your own spells that are as flawless as mine. And I know if it\'s you, you can definitely do it in no time~."

I smiled at him and he nodded happily as an excited smile appeared on his face.

"Yes! Thank you, big brother and grandma, too. And big sister Elle~!" He thanked everyone with a bright smile on his face and went back to eating with deep thinking.

He was an excellent mage and there was no need for him to be bound by the magic others use.

If it is him, I know he can make spells that are more powerful, deep, and can only be cast with a mind like his.

He will be alright now, so that was the end of his topic, and Rein\'s grandma moved to the other one in this little game.

I knew Rein\'s eyes had already told her the white stone would be a good thing for her and she might have figured out I also wanted this stone even if I can\'t use it.

The reason was simple... I wanted to give that stone to her.

Nothing special, it was just a sorry gift.

For the episode that had been happening a moment ago and the fact that I \'forgot\' to tell her I was a Hexa elemental mage, and for worrying her like this.

Now the feelings and emotions are getting even stronger.

\'Man... aren\'t we just hopeless at this point?\' I can\'t deny this fact and so, I just wanted to go with the flow.

We both were far more mature for our age so, with a lot of time, we can do everything we wanted.

Well, I knew I was going to win this little game and gamble with this grandma, anyway.

This wasn\'t even my first time seeing a spirit summoning stone.

As a matter of fact, I had six others like this one as well as three for advanced ranked spirits summoning.

We ranked spirits as Newborns, Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, Superior, Kings, and Queens.

As basic as this was, the first-ranked spirits were impossible to get summoned by any being.

Even if they are someone like my master.

Spirit kings and queens stood on the same level as hers and some of them were actually as old or maybe older than her.

They are godly beings that rule the spiritual world and protect nature as some of the [Guardians].

And no mortal had the power to summon a king or queen, at least no normal mortal.

There had definitely been cases of transcendent beings making the contract with a spirit king but, never in history did they have the power to summon their actual forms.

And they can\'t even leave that realm from what I knew.

And newborn spirits were something that had no actual elemental attributes.

They were beings that gained their attribute after a while of being born.

And with no attribute, they are like souls hanging between life and death.

When they actually gain this attribute, they become full spirits and a rank is assigned to them at that point.

So... as someone who had an elemental affinity with all six basic elements, I can do two things.

Find a way to summon a Superior spirit, because that\'s the only rank other than [Queen] for the spirit of all six elemental attributes.

Or somehow make a contract with a newborn so that the little one would get the affinity of all six elements at its birth.

\'And even though I have a way to make the second option possible, I am not strong enough to enter the 42nd floor of the tower yet.\'

That place was a special spot, totally different from any other floor of the tower.

Lucy called that floor [The gate of the spirit world] and this was one of those restricted floors grandma didn\'t allow me to enter.

She always said I will know when I should go to that floor, so I just believed her, and I didn\'t actually want to go there anytime soon.

I had Celes, and I had to take care of Zoe, too.

The child-like old Rein was here too.

If I got another baby, it would be too difficult for a little old me, no?

So for now, she can have this even if her answer won\'t be right.

Actually, even her grandma\'s answer would be wrong.

"So Elle. What do you think? How many are there." The grandma asked while looking at Rein. and she confidently nodded.

"I think there are 38. Eon cast six spells. Just like you." she said, and I nodded without a problem.

I definitely cast five spells powered by Mana.

"Oh? Did Eon cast six? But where... ah~. Indeed." Even dad didn\'t see this one despite seeing the one on the floor.

There were two sound spells in the air parallel to the one on the ground.

And three other spells constantly circling us in one giant dorm that was just inside Rein\'s grandma\'s spells.

This actually turned out pretty fun if I said so.

Good thing I was thinking the same thing as her. Just that my spells took a little bit more to activate than hers.

She was truly exceptional.

Nodding her head at Rein, she finally looked at me and before she can ask me the same question as all the others, I looked back at her with a smile.

"So Rein\'s grandma. What do you think the actual number is?" I asked with a calm smile on my face that made my mom suddenly smile.

And she was the only one to smile like that because not even dad knew this habit of mine.

Or more accurately, this smile that I only used when I was more than confident in what I was doing.

This surprised the old grandma, who was confident in her own strength, and, after seeing this smile, she shook her head with a helpless smile.

"There are 42 defensive magics in this room right now and now that you asked me the questions, can you please point out all of them if you are that confident in yourself?

Little hero of the empire, Axion Heliox Kromet?"

Her voice was stern, but there was a playful smile on her face that made this one even more fun.

I just smiled with excitement at this sudden behavior and nodded my head.

"It would be my pleasure, duchess Arina, the great high mage and some of the highest candidates for the seat of the new [Elder]."

It will be fun now…
