Chapter 124: Time to learn more about Mages and Magic part 1 (1/2)

Olivia took Leo upstairs until they arrived at the Cultivation room on the 4th floor of the villa.
”Master, is your name really Olivia?” Leo can't help but ask. He still doesn't know about his Master's real name, so he really wanted to know whether the name she had introduced herself as was really her real name or just a made-up name.
Olivia nodded her head as she replied, ”That is indeed my real name. No need to worry, though. They wouldn't be able to find out anything about me, and even if they can, they would only find out that I'm indeed a powerful Mage which would just remove me in their suspicious list, hahaha!”
Leo breathed a sigh of relief after knowing about his Master Olivia's plan.
”By the way, what are we doing here?” Leo suddenly asked, ”Are you really going to punish me?”
”Of course not! But, I'm going to teach you more about Mages. Come, let's get inside and continue!” Olivia said as she motioned for Leo to come with her inside one of the Cultivation room.
Leo nodded his head as he got inside the Cultivation room, which was followed after by his Master Olivia.
”Sit!” Olivia said as she motioned for Leo to sit first as she followed after. She then continued, ”Do you know, if I wasn't in the Royal Court awhile ago you would have been locked in prison right now?”
”What do you mean, Master?” Leo can't help but ask dubiously.
”No one can lie in the eyes of the powerful Mages! If you think that you can just as easily lie in front of them, then you are greatly mistaken, young man!” Olivia replied as she flicks Leo's forehead.
Leo rubbed the part where his Master Olivia had flicked as he said, ”Are there some sort of Magic spell that allows the Mages to see whether a person is lying or not?”
”Yes!” Olivia nodded her head as she continued, ”Everything in this world has Mana, and Mages cannot only use Mana to cast a Magic spell but to also read them like books!”
”Say, how do you think Mages differentiate the different Element Mana?” Olivia suddenly asked.
”By simply feeling them!” Leo quickly replied seemingly as if it was easy to answer. If the Element Mana was hot, then it's definitely a Fire Element Mana.
”Fool!” Olivia flick Leo's forehead again, ”Feeling them is not the right term to use, but reading them! The same as Mages casting those Magic spells, Mana can also be read!”
”How?” Leo asked while feeling really excited. He had always been curious about this sort of stuff and he wanted to learn more about it. However, due to the pressure of the end of the month competition, he could only focus on a few things, hence he doesn't have any time to bother learning more stuff about Mages and Magic.
In fact, all of this time he had only been learning things the moment he faced it. Such as he only decided to learn Support Magic spells because he realized he needed it. If it wasn't needed, then he would have surely not bothered about it.
”Every Mana in the surrounding is the same as the words written in a piece of book. Like for example, when you are casting a Wind Dagger spell, the Wind Mana you have actually used to cast the Magic spell doesn't literally mean that it was the complete Wind Element Mana itself. Every Element Mana has its different properties too, such as hard, soft, rough, and many more... If you can read these parts of the Wind Element Mana, then your Wind Dagger spell wouldn't just be a plain and simple Wind Dagger, you could also make it into as hard as a steel Wind Dagger.”
Leo's eyes quickly let up.
”However, let's not talk about that yet since you are still not in the level to learn about those things!” Olivia stopped the topic as she continued, ”First, tell me a lie!”
”Um... I don't like Cassandra!” Leo said.
”Oh, you like her?” Olivia suddenly said while smiling mischievously.
Leo was immediately taken aback as he replied, ”How?”
”The Mana around you told me so!” Olivia can't help but laugh at Leo's reaction, ”I didn't think that you would actually start to like your very own slave, hahaha!”
”Tell me, is it a romantic type of way?” Olivia can't help but to start teasing Leo.
”Now that I think about it, I think it is really like that!” Leo replied, ”After meeting her, I suddenly felt like I wanted this woman to be mine and I will protect her with my life!”
”Oh, I never thought you have felt this way... Then how about the others?”
”Now that you asked me about them... Master, why don't I have any past memories with Elizabeth? She said that we had memories before, and even her father act so casually around me too, so it really bothers me!”
