Chapter 41 Her magical powers 2 (1/2)
”You know very well that there is another Atlantian here old general.” Leon said.
”You mean...” Robert knew what Leon meant by 'another Atlantian'.
”Yes old general, your granddaughter princess Alicia.” Leon answered with a hint ofamusement in his eyes.
”But how?” Robert asked. ”No one has thought her to use magic before.”
”Let me explain it to you general.” Leon said. ”Imagine a bottle of champagne. The champagne is the magic power and the bottle is the body of the person with magic.”
”The body is like a container. Even if the person doesn't know how to use magic, it is still contained inside. Emotion is the key that is used to harness magic. If since young the person is thought how to use magic, then it will flow smoothly out. Like opening a bottle of champagne. The cork is carefully opened and the contents can be poured carefully.”
”But if a person was not thought how to use magic or even doesn't know they have magic, then it can be a dangerous. It can also lead to death.” Leon said.
”Lead to death?” Robert was shocked. ”But how can it be so dangerous.”
”Like I said, emotion is used as a key to harness magic. If a person that wasn't educated, how to use magic suddenly had a surge of emotion then the magic inside his or her body can burst out. Imagine the bottle of champagne that was shaken vigorously. When you open the cork, the contents will burst out. And also the bottle can break with the burst of champagne.”
Robert was imagining this and caught what Leon was trying to tell.
”So you mean, if a person with magic person had a burst of emotions, the magic can burst out and it can be out of control.” Robert said.
”Exactly.” Leon agreed. ”Especially in Alicia's case. She is a descendant of the Atlantian royal family. Meaning her magic powers is no small talk. Her magic powers are beyond my own.”
”Then what can we do to prevent her magic from destroying her body? Do we need to teach her in secret?” Robert asked.
”That was what I was thinking.” Leon said. ”Looking at how she was able to make the cat do what she wanted, it was a huge feat.”
”What do you mean?” Robert asked curiously.
”Controlling living things such as insects, animals, and also humans, it is considered a high class kind of magic.”
