Ms. Melor went back to her table and took out a sealed container out of her bag. The class was curiously waiting as she brought it to the center of the class. As she slowly opened it, a soft glow emanated from the container. The class gazed in awe at what was inside.
「 Malique Rustbucket 」
"That is an æsther ore!"
"I know coz my Dad's a miner!"
「 Ms. Melor 」
"That is absolutely correct, Malique!"
「 Class 1 Red 」
"Woooooooow…"
「 Ms. Melor 」
"This is an æsther ore."
"This wonderful ore will change its color after it absorbs magical energy from its surroundings."
"Right now, the absorbent capability is nullified by this container, which is why it is in its pure state."
The class of 1 Red was filled with awe, listening to their teacher's explanation.
"The ore is also the substance that is used to detect your magical affinity from your Ki cards."
"Now, let me show you."
The class of 1 Red was filled with awe as they witnessed the esther ore pulsing and changing color in response to Ms. Melor's touch. The soft yellowish hue that enveloped the ore indicated her magical affinity, which was light magic. The students' eyes widened with wonder and excitement, their curiosity piqued by this magical display.
「 Class 1 Red 」
"Waaaaaaaaah…"
「 Ms. Melor 」
"Yes, class, the æsther ore is a remarkable substance."
"It has the ability to absorb and store magical energy from its surroundings, which allows it to change color and reflect the magical affinity of individuals who come into contact with it."
The students leaned in closer, their attention fully captured by Ms. Melor's demonstration.
"Now, let's explore how the æsther ore can be used to detect your own magical affinity."
"Each one of you will have the opportunity to touch the ore and observe the color it takes, revealing your unique magical affinity."
Excitement buzzed through the classroom as the students eagerly anticipated their turn to interact with the esther ore. They were filled with anticipation, wondering what color their own magical affinity would manifest as.
Ms. Melor carefully passed the æsther ore around the class, allowing each student to touch it and observe the resulting color change. With each interaction, the æsther ore pulsed and transformed, unveiling the diverse range of magical affinities within the class.
The students gasped, whispered in awe, and exchanged excited glances. Discovering the coherence between their Ki card and the magical energy absorbed by the æsther ore. The room was filled with a sense of enchantment and possibility, as the æsther ore served as a tangible symbol of the magic within each student.
「 Ms. Melor 」
"Remember, your magical affinity is a unique part of who you are."
"Embrace it, explore it, and let it guide you in your studies and future endeavors."
"This æsther ore is a reminder of the magic that resides within each and every one of you."
As the excitement and anticipation filled the classroom, Zanno's hesitation was noticeable. He knew that his Ki card had not detected any magical affinity within him, and this made him reluctant to participate in the æsther ore activity. His shoulders slumped slightly, and a sense of self-doubt crept into his thoughts.
Ms. Melor, ever attentive to her students' emotions, noticed Zanno's hesitation. She approached him with a gentle smile, offering reassurance.
"Zanno, my dear, magic manifests in many different ways, and sometimes it takes time for our affinities to reveal themselves."
"Remember, the æsther ore is just one tool to help us understand our magical abilities."
"It's not the only measure of your potential."
Zanno looked up at Ms. Melor, his eyes reflecting a mixture of uncertainty and hope.
「 Zanno 」
"But, I don't have any magical affinity?"
"What if I'm just not meant to be a part of this?"
Ms. Melor placed a reassuring hand on Zanno's shoulder, offering him words of encouragement.
「 Ms. Melor 」
"Zanno, we are all on our own unique journeys, and sometimes the path to discovering our abilities takes unexpected turns."
"Your worth and potential are not defined solely by your magical affinity."
"There are countless ways to contribute and make a difference, both within and beyond the realms of magic."
"Trust in yourself, and remember that your journey is still unfolding."
Zanno nodded, absorbing Ms. Melor's words. He felt a glimmer of hope and a renewed sense of purpose.
「 Zanno 」
"Thank you, Ms. Melor."
"I'll keep exploring and stay open to possibilities."
"Maybe my own magic is just waiting to reveal itself in a different way."
Ms. Melor smiled warmly, proud of Zanno's determination.
「 Ms. Melor 」
"That's the spirit, Zanno."
"Keep your mind open, embrace your uniqueness, and continue to learn and grow."
"Magic is not just about affinities; it's about the passion, curiosity, and wonder that resides within us all."

"Yes… Maybe the ore will detect your affinity this time."
Ken and Luna offered Zanno some encouragement. Zanno looked at them, touched by their kind words and encouragement. Their support gave him a renewed sense of courage and curiosity. Taking a deep breath, he nodded and decided to give the esther ore a try, despite his initial doubts.
Zanno approached the container holding the æsther ore, his hand trembling slightly with a mix of excitement and apprehension. He extended his hand towards the ore, unsure of what to expect. As his fingertips made contact with the smooth surface, a hushed silence fell over the classroom, with his classmates watching intently.
Time seemed to stand still as Zanno waited for a response from the æsther ore. Slowly, a shimmer of light began to emanate from the ore, growing brighter and more vibrant with each passing moment. The classroom erupted into gasps and whispers of awe as the æsther ore revealed a gentle, ethereal glow.
Zanno's eyes widened in astonishment and joy as he realized that the æsther ore had indeed detected his magical affinity. It may have been different from the traditional elemental affinities, but it was beautiful and uniquely his own.
Ms. Melor, beaming with pride, stepped forward to join Zanno, Ken, and Luna.
「 Ms. Melor 」
"Zanno, my dear, your magical affinity has manifested."
"And the æsther."
"It's… grey?"
"I have never seen a flat grey æsther before."
As the æsther ore revealed Zanno's unique magical affinity, a sense of wonder filled the classroom. However, Ms. Melor's observation of the æsther ore's color caught everyone's attention. The usual vibrant hues that corresponded to different magical affinities were absent, replaced by a flat, grey color.
