According to Sas, my mana capacity compared to those of my age is like comparing a barrel to a glass. I can fire hundreds of fireballs without breaking a sweat, while they struggle to make one. However, because of my large mana capacity, it is harder for me to use it properly than for others my age. They can easily lift the glass of water and use it as they wish, but I have to lift the barrel, control how much I want to pour from the barrel, and at the same time avoid spilling it on others and myself. That's why Nar and Sas are preparing different training for me so that I don't end up hurting others at school.
"Lower it more" [Nar]
"I'm trying" [Diana]
"Imagine instead of lifting the barrel, you use the same glass if water as others" [Sas]
"Glass of water. Glass of water" [Diana]
I look at Kara and Mara. Since they're twins, they share the same mana attribute, which is wind, earth, and light. I thought they said before that they couldn't use Wind, but it turns out that they just aren't trained for it. As for Neloufa, she's good at water and the advanced version of it, like ice. They're having trouble even shooting a simple mana arrow, while as for me
"Thunder whip!" [Diana]
"Too strong!" [Nar]
Nar, without any equipment, just grabs the thunder mana whip that was emitted from my world tree wand and disperses it perfectly. Liya, just stare in awe at how Nar is able to do this.
"This... This is difficult" [Diana].
I sit down to rest for a while, panting and gasping for breath. The harder I try to control my mana output, the wilder it gets. I tried to activate my Blessing to do this, but I remember Master saying that simply relying on my Blessing would get me into big trouble one day. I don't know how, but I trust Master Merlin's word, so I won't cheat myself.
"How about the three of you take a breather as well" [Jean]
"That would be much appreciated" [Mara]
"I agree" [Kara]
"I feel like throwing up" [Neloufa]
The four of us, start to lie down on the grass. The grass felt nice, and the wind blowing makes our sweaty body even colder. The four of us look at the same sky. I wonder
"Sister Dana... Where are you... Are you looking at the same sky I am..." [Diana]
It just came out of my mouth. I didn't want to say it out loud, but whenever I thought of her, I couldn't help but feel sad and worried. Does she eat like me? Is she wearing her favorite clothes? Is her favorite doll still with her? Does she smile like me?
"Diana, it will be okay!" [Neloufa]
Neloufa, without warning, grabs my hand near her chest and tries to comfort me.
"I'm sure your sister is out there, I'm sure she'll be fine!" [Neloufa]
"Neloufa..." [Diana]
"Diana... You helped both of us, and as your friend and as a member of royalty, I swear that I will help you reunite with your elder sister" [Kara].
"Kara..." [Diana]
"When we grow up, no, starting from now, to repay our debt, we will help you. Seeing you sad makes the three of us sad as well" [Mara]
"Mara..." [Diana]
What they said actually makes me very happy. I am happy, like the sunshine in my heart is getting brighter, so why?
"Why did my eyes become teary?" [Diana]
"Diana, don't cry" [Neloufa]
"You're crying too!" [Diana]
"Diana, Neloufa, don't..." [Mara]
"I guess our eyes are just teary today" [Kara]
I swear... I swear that I will cherish my bond with them.
"Thank you... Everyone." [Diana]
Once again, the World Tree Wand reacts, growing longer and taking on a more beautiful shape. There are four flower symbols surrounding the top of the wand, each corresponding to our hair color.
"Fireball" [Diana]
I tried a simple fireball spell, and the result is
"I... I did it!" [Diana]
"Congratulations!" [Liya]
"You can control your mana!" [Kara]
"That means we have to work harder to catch up with you" [Mara]
"Mr. Nar, Mr. Sas, Ms. Jean, we are ready to resume our training!" [Neloufa]
"That's the spirit!" [Nar]
"Just don't push yourself too hard" [Jean]
"Diana, you can join them as well" [Sas]
"Right!" [Diana]
We continue our training until about 2:00 pm. After that, we open the lunch boxes that we prepared earlier. The variety of sandwiches makes me drool. I want to grab one quickly, and the feeling is mutual for Nar and Sas as they grab their favorite sandwiches, but
"NAR! SAS! DIANA! Wash your hand! Clean your clothes! Sit properly! Say your prayers!"[Jean]
"Right..." [Nar, Sas, Diana]
"They really are siblings..." [Liya]
