Chapter 12: Progenitor (2)
“My disciple? Did you happen to drink some kind of elixir in this short time?”
Master grabbed my wrist, sounding uncharacteristically bewildered.
“An elixir? Well, nothing really comes to mind. What’s the matter?”
“You see...the mana I sense from you has increased dramatically~”
“Isn’t it thanks to your lessons, Master? If I had to choose between an elixir and your teachings, I’d choose the latter without hesitation.”
“Duran, what was that about my lessons again? Did you hear what Risir just said? Did you, did you?”
<The boy would applaud just seeing your face. Still, considering Risir’s rapid growth of magical power... it does seem your lessons are effective.>
“Really?”
Master looked pleased yet unconvinced.
“But this growth is beyond what can be explained by effective lessons alone, you know?”
“Could you explain it in terms simple enough even for someone like me, Master?”
