"For the human body, mana comes from the soul, right? Humans are a product of their environment, so the mana within humans, including the soul comes from the environment. However, the environment, no… the world itself is one massive body on its own. Everything is connected, the ecosystem, plants, animals, weather… it's like we're all living in the body of yet another being known as this world."
As I spoke, Neron began to understand where I was heading. From his facial reaction, he was astounded that I had thought that far.
"If then, mana originates from the soul of humans, shouldn't the same apply to this massive world we live in? Yes, what I'm simply trying to say is this; This World has a soul… and that is the source of all Mana!"
Silence!
Pure silence radiated around me as I finished giving my answer. The students looked surprised and confused about what to do. Should they applaud me for my immensely complex answer, or jeer at me for saying something so out of the norm.
