"So, if we do this, then we will have to —" The Professor said while discussing their lesson.



Elyse stares outside from the window with her mind absent from the lesson. She still couldn't find any other reason why she suddenly had a flashback of the Master's past memory. What's more, the new Master will visit the Academy with the Princess of The Underworld. It is also known as The Kingdom of Souls.



"Miss Elyse?" The teacher calls her name in which she turned her head to look at the board.



"Yes, sir." She answered and stood up.



"How will you explain the difference between a Mana and its core?" The teacher said while Elyse fiddled her fingers secretly behind her bank. Eli noticed her fingers since she was sitting behind her, Eli smiled.



'If you were really Aniya, she wouldn't do that.' She thought looking at Elyse's fingers.



"Mana and Core are both relative to each other. Mana is like energy for the Core to process. A core of a person is similar to a heart while Mana is all about energy. A core cannot process without its own core, the same goes for the core. As for the difference, Mana produces power and ability giving it to the core where in other words, a core can be of storage." Elyse said with confidence in herself. Eli started clapping and everyone followed her.



Elyse blinked, she didn't notice that she said that with confidence and impressed her teacher and classmates.



"Well, a good explanation, Miss Elyse. Let me ask you another one —" The teacher said and glares at her.



"How will you use mana when you're fighting with a core-bearer?" The teacher then raises his hands, "as you can also know. Mana and core are two different things that have been inside the human body. A normal person would know that Mana and core are two different things basically. But what happens if there is a core-bearer who never needed mana to have powers?" Elyse was stunned.



'Is there... such a monstrous person can hold that much?' Elyse thought.



For her, there would be no other person who can handle such a thing. Without a core, that said person wouldn't also have mana to perform magic or have ability and powers.



"I... don't think I understand Sir," Elyse admitted. She has never heard such a thing in her entire life studying magic.



The teacher laughs at her answer. "Well, what a disappointment. Since you are Aniya's Descendant, I thought you would know such top classic secret." The teacher said. Elyse suddenly felt shivers down to her spine and a vision entered her mind, "what a disappointment." That is what the woman in her memory said.
