65 Chapter 65: Magic Tutor Alex 2 (1/2)

Alex was standing in his room with a book in his hand, 'How to teach magic to hillbillies '.

He was speaking about the concepts of magic and what magic is while in front of him sitting on a big pillow, Tosca was paying attention like a good student, her eyes shining every time Alex explained a new concept or answered one of her questions.

With a wave of his hand images appeared in the air, giving visualization to his words, making it easier to understand and to learn.

At the moment there was a third-dimensional image of a tree standing tall next to Alex. Half of the tree was dead with rotten wood and bare branches while the other side had lush leaves and healthy bark. Strangely both sides bore fruit, but this fruit had all looked different from the other.

”This is called the 'Ancestral Tree', it is what was used to teach magic to aspiring elven mages as well as a way to manifest one's manna in the physical world. Each fruit depicts a different element or concept while the two half of the tree represents life and death, the eternal cycle, reincarnation, and some other stuff philosophers and sages thought of, which you do not need to know. Just know that this means life and death while each fruit bears the power of a concept or element.”

Alex calmly explained while hovering the image of the 'Ancestral Tree' closer to Tosca so that she could get a better look. She stared at the tree in curiosity but then she was confused by something Alex said, so she raised her hand and waited.

Alex stopped speaking and nodded to her in acknowledgment so that she can ask her questions.

”Master, you said that we can use this tree to manifest our manna in the physical world, what does that mean.”

Alexx thought for a moment before answering.

”Bringing forth our manna in a much more concentrated form while helping us affect the physicle world by controlling the manna around us. The manifestation of our manna will be in the form of an 'Ancestral tree', each person's tree will look differently and might not be a tree in fact. The reason it is called an ancestral tree is because the person that invented this way of using magic manifested his manna in such a way. First it would be better if we go somewhere els or I might destroy my room.”

Alex said as he grabbed the surprised Tosca by the shoulder and they both disappeared from the room. The last thing they hear is Aura screaming from somewhere in the room.

”Wait for meeeee!”

...

Tosca looked around her in surprise, a moment ago she was sitting on the big pillow listening to Alex's lectures but now she was standing in the middle of a desert, she stood up and felt the sand as she dug her toes into it.

”Ahem”

Tosca snapped out of her daze as she looked to her left were alex was standing looking at her in amusement.

”Where are we?”

Tosca asked as she felt that her surrounings were too weird.

”Mars”

Alex said with a smile as he saw Tosca's eyes widen even further.

”Haaaah!”
