Chapter 270: Identity Leaked (1/2)

Lawrend allowed his thoughts to run everywhere. His mind was focused on why electricity was in the form of mana.

A few minutes later, his head started to hurt. Thinking about something so complicated made his brain overload.

”Do you need some help?” Eleanor's voice suddenly sounded.

”Yes, please. I can't think anymore,” Lawrend replied tiredly.

When it comes to something so complicated, he was clueless. He was just an average human in his past life. He wasn't like Alb*rt Ei*stein or Ma* Pl*nck.

”What do you mean by your past life, exactly?” Eleanor asked.

'Oh, sh*t!'

Lawrend quickly realized that he fucked up. He shouldn't have talked out loud.

”Fufufu. You shan't worry. I'm indebted to you, so I won't leak anything,” Eleanor said after seeing the panic on his face.

”...”

Lawrend stayed mute. It was a big deal that he was reincarnated. He won't admit to it easily.

”I see… You don't trust me enough, Master?” Eleanor asked.

”I don't know what you are talking about,” Lawrend replied.

”Okay. I won't talk about it ever again,” Eleanor replied.

”...”

Lawrend stayed silent again as his heart was beating very fast. She was a ghost but that doesn't stop her from leaking that information to someone else.

He wanted to scold himself for letting his guard down. It was an honest mistake as it was easy to forget that Eleanor and Daisy were there.

”Master, do you want me to teach you what mana is?” Eleanor asked after not hearing his reply.

”...Okay.” Lawrend nodded his head.

”Mana is an energy that grants power, authority, status, influence, and dignity from the world. Every form of mana exists around us because the world allows its living beings to use its power. Without its permission, we would be unable to use mana,” Eleanor explained.

”The world grants mana?” Lawrend asked in confusion.

”It does. Mana didn't come out of nowhere. It is born from the center of the world. A world without mana is a dead one. It is the very reason that we are all alive,” Eleanor continued.

”Wow…”

Hearing this information blew Lawrend's mind. Mana exists because the world allows it to. It was such a bizarre concept for him who came from a world without any magic.

”So to answer your question, your lightning mana exists inside your body because the world allows it to,” Eleanor said.

'That means that the world in my past life didn't allow anyone to possess mana? What a finding!' Lawrend thought to himself in excitement.

”I understand now. Thank you,” Lawrend replied.

”I'm happy to help, Master. Once you trust me, let's talk about secret things,” Eleanor said before she went silent once again.

”*Sigh*” Lawrend released a sigh.

It was a good thing that she felt indebted to him so she respected his privacy. Otherwise, she would know that he was actually a reincarnation from his past life.
