After the lessons earlier this morning, Alvin learned that both Meng Bao and Anna has the aptitude to learn magic while James, you already know what i mean. Alvin sent him back but not before telling him that even if he isn't capable of magic, he can still become a knight making him happy.
"Now that's settled" he looked at the two kids with a serious expression. "What can the both of you sense?" he asked.
They stood straight and closed their eyes. Blue colored orbs started appearing beside Meng Bao and hovered. But what happened to Anna is different. A mist covered Anna and almost covered her body.
"Do you see anything in Meng Bao?" Alvin asked to clarity. A question pop out on her head wondering why he ask that. "You can't see anything on Meng Bao?" she asked. Alvin nodded then answered "I can't see anything but i can feel something. What i can only see is the Mana enshrouding Anna and the elements that i can use" He explained.
Alvin nodded and sat on the ground to think about something. Clarity on the other hand looked around to find some fruits to give to the kids, fortunately for her there are apples nearby and pick them up and put it on her inventory while doing so she saw the Rubik's Staff on the side and took it out.

"Contract not summon?..." she asked while wondering. when she looked at it before, it says that i have the power to summon not contract.
she looked around to see if there's an animal that she could contract with. Luckily for her a cute little stug appeared walking to her slowly. "Come here cute little baby dear!" she said while giving it some apple. The stug came close and took a bite on it.
"now let's get contracted" she said and tap the head of the stug and a green colored veil envelopes it whole body. A few minutes later a beautiful adult dear with a large horn appeared staring at her. but after a few seconds she was surprised when a smoke pop on the dear and turned back to a cute little stug.
"SO CUTE!!!" she screamed and pick it up not knowing that somebody was looking at her the entire time. Clarity went back to the training grounds and saw Anna practicing some basic spells like Mana Ball, Mana Arrow and Magic Barrier.
'Where's the cute little bun?' Clarity thought and looked around but she didn't even see a strand of hair. Walking around the training grounds she heard the little bun talking to someone.
"Mr.Squirrel why can't i use magic like Anna and Sir Alvin?" he asked to the squirrel. When Clarity heard it she had the urge to smack alvin at the back of his head. 'Why didn't he call me?' she thought. clarity can't bare to see the little bun being sad and gloomy and decided to talked to Meng Bao.
The squirrel saw her and ran, seeing the squirrel ran away he almost followed but heard a question. "What are you doing here Little Bun?" Clarity asked.
Meng Bao lowered his head and didn't bother answering her question and walked back to the training field. Clarity saw him lowering his head down and took his hand. "Do you think you don't have the magical stuffs like Alvin and Anna?" she asked while taking him to the shore.
"Yeah, i can't do spells like her or control the blue thingy" he answered while letting himself get dragged from who knows where. (i said the shore).
When the both of them reached the shore. She told the little bun to sense the elements again. Meng Bao did what he was told and sense the elements again, and was surprised to see that the blue orbs are plenty compared at the training field. He tried commanding the orbs and formed a bigger orb, he was elated that he can control them now even though it's just in the size of his fist.
"Thank..." When he was about to say his gratitude he was interrupted by Clarity. "Not Yet! just because you can form them to form a bigger orb don't think your done yet! You need to change the orbs to their respective elements" She explained and turn the peach colored orbs and shaped them into a castle. of course Meng Bao can't see that! it's not his element. She changed the orbs into sands from top to bottom, Meng Bao on the other hand saw the entire process of the castle and was surprised to see it. "WOAH!!!" he exclaimed and tried turning the orb infront of him into water.
"Remember! even though you can do this stuffs already it's not enough to change them and turn it into elemental attack. Elemental Control is not omnipotent and has various weaknesses like, Water Elementalist can't do their thing in extreme hot places or Turquoise Colored Elements" she explained and continued teaching him with stuffs even though she's not good at it.
it was night when Clarity was finished teaching Meng Bao the basics and decided to comeback when they're already freezing. When they reach the camp they saw a new bunch of people talking with the others.
