So I hope you guys now understand why Aether is going in as a non-gifter. But hey, to tell the truth, Aether is also kind of interested in doing mechanisms, since his family doesn't know he has magic, they taught him studies on how to build mechanisms and it looked pretty fun to learn too... "I love my family uwu..," So what Aether's doing right now is benefitting him the most, learning more about mechanisms and increasing his magic mastery by enrolling in the academy...Aether also wants to see what the world looks like from the non-mages perspective.
People might think that Aether will be the most powerful since he has the Stairway of Heaven in his hands, but to tell the truth, the magic that everyone tells has no weakness has a weakness and it is the magic itself...Since this magic is forbidden using it often will only get him in trouble as master mages can sense traces of magic from someone...So he wasn't able to fully use Stairway Of Heaven...he also wasn't able to control his mana at first, it was really hard since he was alarmed about what will happen if the world knows about this, thus he learned through some magic books in his house...Aether's parents have a lot of ancient books which talks about magic and mechanisms thus making it easy for him to cultivate...Even though his parents will catch a glimpse of him reading the books they won't tell anything since they know that their son would love to have magic but wasn't lucky enough...There are also some books that were forbidden in the house but Aether would read them without them knowing.
Sometimes when his family goes out he will use his magic and learn how to control it...Aether has learned to use his magic all by himself and it was hard at first but soon it became a bit easy even though he only has limited time...still until this day he was only able to learn the basics of how to control the Stairway Of Heaven. But on the other hand, he learned that possessing this magic is very terrifying because while he was learning to control his time magic he learned that he can control all the other magic elements as well but it's hard to use them as individual and Aether failed to achieve that till now...I guess I understand why this magic was forbidden now. But no matter how much power he has, without having fighting skills, it will be only called useless in the end.
So Aether began to learn how to fight with his magic on his own and that was hard...like fricking hard. He is not a prodigy to learn everything fast but he also convinces himself by telling" I am special so I can manage everything even if things go slowly." Right now Aether's still learning how to fight while using magic...but by looking in his eye I can tell that he's pretty confident that he's stronger than these enrolments as he is now...but we don't know when will something happen so "I am going to use this academy to learn all the things I want to learn."
"Thank you, you may go now," says the tester to Aether after finishing taking his tests...Aether bows and walks outside..."That boy Aether's good in mechanisms, he has great potential," says the tester after examining Aether. As Aether was walking out of the room"Hey look, the non-gifter who is good for nothing but his looks is coming out," boys in the crowd started mocking again..."Aww, man being low profile is going to be hard from now on...help!! is being handsome a problem, god help me...hehe just kidding, I don't give a damm about you background characters, it's not my fault if you guys are ugly, if only I could say it loud," Aether mumbles to himself while walking back to his seat..."Wait what if I am also a background character like them," as Aether was busy analyzing whether he is a background character or not..."Hello, excuse me!" someone taps on Aether's shoulder.
Aether turns around to see who it was and he saw a boy standing behind him...with a confused face he asks "Yes?"...The boy who heard Aether quickly talks "Hii my name is Morgan Bailey, are you a non-gifter."? Aether looked at the boy and "Who is this boy now, he doesn't look like one of those bastards. He must be one of the non-gifters too, looks like he came here to be friends or something. Well it's better to make friends with them." and Aether proceeds to introduce himself "Hey! The names Aether Ryens, are you a non-gifter too?" says Aether. Upon hearing his voice, that boy Morgan smiled brightly and "Yes, I am a non-gifter too. Nice to meet you. There is a chance we might get into the same class. So what do you say wanna be friends?" asks Aether to be friends with him."Nice meeting you too. Yeah sure I guess. I was bored too".says Aether.This guy Morgan is nice to talk to, it's hard to find guys like this. But he is so talkative and full of energy that listening to him tires Aether even more than he already is... "I am growing man I need plenty of rest," Aether cries in silence
