Teacher Rune was shocked when she heard Aether saying that he learned swords by creating his own technique.
Teacher Rune's Pov:
What? he learned his swords by using his own techniques...that's impossible, but judging by the way he played just now...it might be true. To be able to create your technique at this young age, truly frightening, but I can't help him. After a creating your own technique and using it no ones can help you since they can't use your technique. He have to overcome this wall by himself but "Aether since you're using your own techniques I can't help you but I can teach you the basics fundamental of swords if you would like. Right now, you are stuck at one place, if you want to move forward, you need to have more knowledge of swords. So don't use your technique for now and learn basics from me, of course I won't force you to join."
What Teacher Rune says is true, I need more knowledge about swords. "Fine, I will learn with you. Please teach me," said Aether to Teacher Rune.
Teacher Rune pats Aether's head and says"hehe, it will tough you know."
"Well, anything other than sweating," said Aether.
Teacher Rune hits Aethers head and says " Ara, Ara, How can you learn then? you idiot."
"Hehe, I am joking."said Aether while touching his head.
Actually I was hoping for that.uwu.
And just like that Aether began practising swords under Rune Teacher. Even though he practices swordsmanship with Rune teacher, he still practices his mana manipulation whenever he is in his dorm...
I actually don't know many things about Stairway of Heaven, since all of the information about that is taboo. I also didn't take the initiative to look into my magic often, after all having this magic is a big curse in this world. I still don't know why this magic is taboo in this world. All I know is that I can stop time, walkthrough and use all the other elements. Even though these skills are already plenty powerful but I feel like there is something else that I need to discover. Even if I don't like it, I need to get stronger for the sake of my future and I don't want to drag all those who I have connections with, maybe this is the reason why I don't make many friends, haha.i am ashamed of myself. Back to here, anyway with my current level...i don't think I can discover more about my Stairway of Heaven. There are a total of 18 Stages a mage has and that is...

Right now I am at the Pink stage, Final core Pink...yes, I am about to breakthrough to the white stage soon. The more mana I have, the more stages I ascend. Increasing mana is a very important part for a mage. Even, my mana will be drained quickly if I use Stairway to Time for a long period as I am now...Mana is a second important thing for a mage besides a heart...Thats why most mages use their magic wisely. Remember do not use your magic like Lucas, you will l die soon, hehe...joke joke.
If you guys want to know where the first year chosen level is, I will tell you...it's at the Pink stage and It's must be between light or dark pink...and I think Claire is at the White stage, Dark white stage and most of the third year chosen ones must be there. And yeah of course the year 5 chosen ones...They are at the grey stage...Between Dark and Final core grey stage. Yes, the difference is big.
Aether could have broken through his stages long ago if it wasn't for him hiding his magic. He can control the flow of time, how long do you think it will take him to break through stages, but doing that is only going to be a risk for Aether, one shouldn't disturb the flow of time for too long. It will disturb the balance of this world... I wouldn't say Aether is op he is just a gifted boy who is learning everything one by one but he has his problems even for that...as they say with great power comes great responsibility.
