Magic's Return: I Can See The Spirits

"For the time you are here, you will attend 4-hour long lectures on beast taming. I will personally prepare teachers for you."

Astra ordered.

"Mother, 4 hours are too l-"

Before Vaan could even resist,

"I do not remember giving you permission to question my decisions."

Astra spoke in an authoritative tone, a tone Vaan couldn't speak against. In the end, he could only lower his head.

"You have already formed a bond with a Magic Beast and you don't even know the basics of Familiar Taming? How were you planning on raising your Magic Beast? Were you planning on pushing all the responsibility on Elara?"

"…I was going to learn," Vaan replied in a low voice.

"Then rejoice, I am giving you the chance to learn."

Vestas was a Family that specializes in Magic, it was a family of Mages, and as the so-called 'heaven' for all mages, Vestas had access to the best resources in the entire world.

Since the beginning, Mages have often formed Bonds with Magic Beasts, after all, as beings who had weaker bodies, having a physically strong partner that could not only help them keep their distance from their enemies but also help them escape when they are stuck in a critical position, was something extremely beneficial.

It would be foolish to not use something that had so many advantages. Mages having Magic Beasts as familiars were so common that almost every Mage who was above Intermediate level had a Magic Beast they were bonded with.

And knowing the importance of Magic Beasts and Familiar Taming, the Vesta Family, obviously had the best teachers available to teach their children about this topic.

Could these teachers replace the teachers available in the Agresia Academy?

That wasn't even a question. The difference between the two was worlds apart, the quality of the Vesta teachers was much higher.

"…" Vaan turned silent.

"You will start attending these lectures from tomorrow, you will be informed of the timings once I arrange everything."

Astra then turned towards Elara and,

"And Elara, during these lectures, you are not allowed to stay with him else he will be distracted again.

In this duration, you'll be attending sessions with me as we carry forward with our lectures."

Astra ordered once again.

"Y-Yes Teacher…"

Elara didn't repeat Vaan's mistake and silently accepted her teacher's orders. Vaan just stared at his mother ruthlessly giving orders and sighed helplessly.

Then suddenly, a frown appeared on Vaan's face as a question popped into his mind,

"Mother…" he called out.

"What is it?"

"Did Elara not learn about Magic Beasts and Familiar Taming from the Vesta Teachers?"

He still remembered how Elara went ahead and read all the books related to this topic and actively asked questions whenever she got to attend the lecture.

If she had learned all that beforehand, she would have no reason to repeat everything. After all, it didn't look like she was merely revising the concepts.

In his case, he could understand, the previous Vaan didn't even bother learning basic magic theories, expecting him to learn about Magic Beasts was simply foolish.

But Elara?

This woman was pretty much a model student. How did she not know about Magic Beasts and Familiar Taming beforehand?

"She didn't learn it," Astra answered.

"Why?" Vaan frowned.

"I didn't allow her to attend the lecture together with the rest of the Vesta Children."

"Why not?"

Vaan couldn't understand.

He knew Elara was being bullied, however, if Astra was worried about something like that, then just one order from her was enough to solve all the problems, Vaan knew that his mother wasn't the type to care about all those things.

In her mind, this was an opportunity for the child to grow on her own. She wouldn't interfere unless things went too far.

"She became a 4th Circle Mage when she was merely 19, I reached 4th Circle when I was 20, technically, her innate talent was higher than mine, therefore, I didn't want her to waste her time on other things and focus on Magic Theories.

When her understanding of Magic Theories had strengthened to the point where I was satisfied, I would naturally have taught her other subjects."

Astra spoke and Vaan finally understood.

Elara didn't learn it because her potential was simply too high. For someone of her level, learning about these miscellaneous topics can be done in a short time, focusing on the deeper, more important topic was a much better option in her case.

'The difference between us is simply too high…'

Vaan couldn't help but think as he glanced at his fiancée. He couldn't help but feel proud that his future wife was such a monstrous genius. Right now, he wanted nothing more than to jump at this woman and cuddle together with her.

Suddenly, another idea popped into his mind,

"Mother."

He called out again.

"What?"

"If Elara hadn't attended the lectures, how about she attends them wit-"

"No."

Astra turned her son down in an instant.

"Why?" Vaan didn't back down.

"I know my pupil well, if she decided to form a bond, I am sure she has already studied everything she needs to know about familiar taming, don't compare her with your careless self."

"…" Vaan didn't know what to say.

Astra simply snorted, then, she stood up.

"I have spent too much time here, I will be leaving now.

Elara, you can take him to meet Ria if he wishes. Let him face the consequences of not learning things when he needs to.

Also, make sure you introduce Furr to Ria, she is a smart girl,Iam sure she would understand what she needs to do."

Saying those words, Astra turned around and left the room.

Once he couldn't see her anymore, Vaan turned towards Elara and,

"What mistake did I make, why can I not meet Ria?" He questioned.

"Ria is a Celestial Gryphon, they are extremely noble and proud creatures, if they do not like someone, it is very difficult to change their mind, Ria is an even worse case when compared to normal Celestial Gryphon, after all, she isTeacher'sBeasts. Not many can go against her. She is pretty much treated like a Queen."

Elara answered.

"Then… I wouldn't be able to meet my mother's beast…?"

It would be a lie to say that Vaan wasn't disappointed and seeing him act like that,

"…I will help you."

Elara spoke up.
