Grayfia caught up to me and started leading me to her library. When we were walking, I could see that she wanted to say something but seems to be holding back before I looked and her and said.
Me: Do you have something to say miss grayfia.
Grayfia: I wanted to thank you for helping rias with her problem.
Me: you shouldn't be thanking me and we were just doing the job we accepted.
Grayfia: I still want to thank you for it but you aren't giving me the chance to.
Me: you have already done enough with the payment and also allowing me to use the library.
Grayfia: you really don't want anything else then.
I smiled at her and said " yes" she sighed and stop talking to me until we reached the library and said " Here we are" She opened the door and seeing how huge it makes me think why is everything in this house big.
she showed me around the library before stopping at a section and said " This section is where you can find the knowledge you need about magic" I thanked her before walking in to take a look.
I picked one book up to read when I saw grayfia turning to leave before I stopped her and said " Can you show my friends the way to the library" she laughed and said " no problem, I will leave you to your reading than"
I went back to reading the book I found which was called "Magic for beginners" I was reading the book when the others came in and saw what I was doing before going around to pick their own books to read.
By the end of my reading, I could make a fireball which quite easy, I almost thought that Akeno was messing with me when she said it was gonna be hard. I found out what they meant by knowledge is actually explaining and understanding the elements and their different characteristics.
The way normal magic works is " if I do this, then this will happen" I found it easy to understand because for me to create a fireball I just had to feel the fire elements and gather it together in form of a ball to get it but the downside is that it takes time to gather so in a fight, I would be dead before forming on fireball.
I shared my ideas with others and told them that we should focus on making connections with the other elements so it will be easier to gather and control them.
I went out the next day to go find a forest where I can go into meditation, I figured that meditating while feeling the elements is the best way to connect with them.
I felt that maybe the reason the other elements are hard to use is that they feel that you don't share the same characteristics as them so meditating is the best way because you are free of thought like you are empty and do that will make the elements curious about you and less hostile.
Seeing how empty you are, they would want to know more about you and while they are doing that it will be the best way to communicate with them while making connections with them.
