Magic's Return: I Can See The Spirits

*Vaan's Circle and Flamey's Circle*

"Hahaha~ Flamey! It is finally completed!" Vaan laughed out loud.

"Kriiiii~" Flamey, who was flying beside Vaan's arm, helping him use the advanced Magic Circle, exclaimed in joy as well.

The two of them had successfully formed the advanced Magic Circle that Flamey introduced.

A Magic Circle that is 1.5 times larger than the normal circle and has 6 Inner Circles.

If any Mage saw this, he or she would freak out in an instant, just like,

"Vaan! W-What is that!?"

Just like Elara, who stood near the window of the library with a shocked look on her face.

"Elara?"

Vaan frowned. He then rushed towards the window and opened it.

"What are you doing here?"

He questioned as he helped her get inside the library.

"I came here to check up on you but that aside, what was that Magic Circle!? How did you cast it!? That broke the Magic Theory of Clashing Patterns, there is also the Theory of Patterns that must be drawn together, the Theory of Circle Stability, and, and, and also the Theory of-"

"Alright alright, I get it. Calm down and come inside, I'll answer all your questions as we sit."

Vaan calmed Elara down as he held her hand and walked in. The two then sat next to each other and Vaan spoke with a calm look on his face.

"This is the new Circle I came up with. As you can see, it goes against many Magic Theories, however, I have tested it, and the circle is working perfectly. Not only that, it even increases my strength by 50%."

Vaan spoke.

"B-But this d-doesn't make sense." Elara didn't know how to react.

"Well, what can I say? Does it make sense that I can learn new spells within a matter of minutes?" Vaan smiled playfully.

"That's not the same!" Elara shouted.

At first, Vaan was just a never seen before Magic Prodigy, it was shocking, however, it was still in the range of 'believableness', but now…

Now Vaan was directly twisting and challenging the theories of Magic that have been passed down for thousands of years!

That is on a completely different level than just being a prodigy!

That is…

That is…

Elara didn't even know what to name it.

"If you want, I can give the circle for you to study, I am sure it will greatly improve your strength," Vaan spoke with a gentle smile on his face.

This girl didn't give up on him even though the previous Vaan treated her so badly, right now, in Vaan's eyes, Elara deserved everything. She was one of the few people his dark heart has already accepted as her own.

"N-No, t-this is something y-you researched on yo-"

"Elara."

Elara wanted to reject, however, Vaan suddenly called out as he looked into her eyes with a serious look on his face.

"You are my Fiancé. You have taken care of me for so long even though I treated you so roughly, so let me take care of you once."

"…" Elara's face turned red. Not being able to stare at Vaan like this, she just lowered her head in embarrassment.

Seeing this, Vaan couldn't help but smile, something inside him urged him to tease his fiancé,

"Also, why did you sneak into the library even though you were told not to?"

Vaan questioned.

"I-I came to check up on you!"

"Oh? So it was not because you missed me?" Vaan questioned.

"Huh? M-Missed you?"

"You didn't miss me?

Am I the only fool who was thinking about you?" Vaan spoke with moist eyes.

"W-What?"

Elara was speechless.

All these talks about missing each other and all, she heard it was very common between other fiancés, however, that was only true for 'other' Finaces, Vaan and her were different. Let alone missing her, the previous Vaan hated her and wanted nothing more than for her to disappear.

Honestly, their relationship was so tense that Elara had never even thought about such things.

And now Vaan was suddenly acting like this while holding her hands.

Elara felt a strange feeling in her heart, however, her timid nature didn't allow her to express herself. She could only lower her blushing head and stay silent.

Vaan realized that he might have gone too far, so he decided to tone it down a little,

"But I liked it."

"Hmm?"

"You coming here. I appreciate you always looking out for me. Thank you, Elara."

Vaan spoke with a gentle smile on his face.

"N-No worries."

Elara stuttered. All of this was indeed too much.

"Mhm."

Vaan nodded.

"…"

"…"

The situation became awkward.

Honestly, Vaan wasn't much of an expert when it came to love either. After his parent's death, he didn't believe in things like love. He was a member of the pump and dump gang.

Most of his sexual encounters were work-related or something to divert his attention for a while, he was never in a serious relationship.

However, Elara was different. What that girl did for the previous Vaan, with how much she sacrificed, no man could possibly hate her.

Vaan was the same.

Honestly, he didn't know how to act in front of Elara either, he was just trying his best to not be awkward.

Did he love her?

The answer would be no.

ραΠdαsΝοvel He just felt guilty about what the previous Vaan did to her and wanted to somehow make up for it.

He just wanted to protect her and give her all the happiness that she deserved.

However, what he didn't know was that his feelings were slowly changing.

"W-We need to talk to Lady Astra about this."

Suddenly, Elara spoke up.

Maybe it was her way of dealing with the awkwardness and Vaan, who was desperately searching for a way out quickly jumped in,

"A-About what?"

"Your Magic Circle."

"Huh?" Vaan frowned.

Elara started explaining,

"If it actually works as you said it does, then this circle does a lot more than just increase a mage's power by 50%. It may have this effect for now, however, what after you start getting stronger?

You at 2nd Circle would have the same number of Inner Circles as a 3rd Circle Mage,

At 3rd Circle, you will have more Inner Circles than 4th Circle Mage.

That is, the more you grow, the stronger your advantage gets.

Your Magic Circle is so revolutionary that might change the way Magic works.

However, as amazing as it may be, it comes with its own risks."

Elara spoke with a slightly nervous look on her face.

"You should need to seriously discuss this matter with Lady Astra."

Elara suggested.

And Vaan, who understood the seriousness of the situation, nodded his head,

"I will talk to her as soon as I leave this place."

"mm."
