Chapter 206 - Interview With The Magician



Something just purred but it\'s definitely not a cat. And it doesn\'t sound like a cat either. And the most trippy part is that it\'s not even from the surrounding noise, but inside. I have no idea how something that is not a cat can do what cats do.

Am I being repetitive? Well, I\'m sorry for being frazzled by some unknown phenomenon. 

I immediately did a double-take and had even almost dropped the book on the floor from being freaked out just now.

\'What the hell is that?\'

I know that it happened before but I still can\'t help but get surprised alright. For starters, that was just one time. And I had initially thought that Lukas had done something to evoke that kind of thing. Who knew it would happen again at this moment when I\'m researching it?

"So I really do have magic? And it\'s innate?" I muttered to myself and immediately burrowed my nose further into the book..

My brain went back to the time when Nathan and I had a small conversation in the family library. He did mention once that the Herman\'s have some blessed blood running in our veins, though only partial. I mean, that was the reason why the men in the family are versed in swordsmanship. He was so proud of that fact too.

That information had been camping inside my head and I now know the reason behind it. Those who have blessed genes can freely use magic and some examples of them are the royal families like the Windsors, and now the Hermans.

So Ezekiel\'s magic and the Emperor\'s are also innate…

"That explains it huh…"

But do they experience something stirring inside them? Is it normal?

I couldn\'t help but ask myself those questions. It\'s just a pity that Ezekiel is not here so I could ask him, or probably my brother too. Maybe I can just ask him later this evening…

"Wait. It did say here that this type of anima moves inside the host," I immediately refuted myself.

Goodness, how did I almost forget about that…

So yeah. It seems that having something inside you that moves is normal for innate types. 

\'Oh, thank goodness!\'

I thought there was something wrong with me.

But isn\'t this great? There\'s a possibility that I can also use magic! I wonder if it\'s also some type of weapon-based too? For instance, my brother and father are both great with swords, and the same could be said to the rest of the men in the family.

Maybe… Mine is with bows?

"Hmmm…"

Could be…

I mean, don\'t you see how awesome I am with my archery skills? Ahem.

It\'s not gloating if it\'s true, right? Fufufufu~

"Now what\'s the deal with the animals though? Why do they keep following me around?"

Has that ever happened to Nathan?

I thought back to all the times that I was with my brother and recounted if there were details that gave away. Like maybe, appearances of birds around him? Or a gathering of small adorable animals?

Nah… There was nothing like that at all.

If there was something, that would only be me. Now that I\'m sitting here thinking about it, I realized that I had been mingling with animals all these times. Isn\'t Kuro still an animal despite him being a high-leveled spirit? And what about that monstrous boar that attacked us?

Isn\'t it going after me at first before I saddle the rest with the problem? And if I add the scenes where I casually find bunnies, hares, and even a freaking three-horned deer prancing around my garden… And then the birds happened...

How would you explain all that?

My hands wrung together as they rested on the table. I then covered my mouth with my wrung hands, brooding silently all to myself.

"Could it be… I\'m really a fairy after all?" I whispered aloud.

"What an incredible conclusion to arrive,"  a voice piped in towards my right.

I looked up and saw the great magician in flesh, seamlessly gliding in my direction as if he\'s floating. The lone gold dangling earring in his ear glinted when it was hit by the light from the big-ass directory, leading my attention to it.

\'How distracting…\'

Janus, the walking gold --from now on, I will start calling him that-- gave me a side smile. The one that makes him look arrogant but in a good-looking way, you get what I mean?

To be honest, I do think Lukas and him share a similar trait. And that\'s with the way they smile. Maybe they are distant cousins, who knows…

"Are you thinking of something unpleasant just now?" Janus remarked.

"Huh?" I dumbly mouthed.

"Hmph," the magician scoffed.

Err… What is his problem?

I slowly closed the book and set it aside, all the while wondering why Janus suddenly appeared here on the first floor. 

Well, he lives here. Duh.

"Good Afternoon, Lord Janus," I stood up and greeted him.

He flicked his hand, gesturing for me to sit down so I did without any qualms.

"Seems like you have been extremely busy," he then commented after throwing a brief look at the piled-up books in front of me.

I shrugged my shoulders, "I have to research a lot of things because someone knowledgeable won\'t even tell me anything…"

Ah, have I mentioned that I feel truly relaxed shading him now? I don\'t even feel scared of speaking my mind and telling him off. If this was before, I would certainly pee myself to death because of fright.

But alas… I can\'t even believe that this famed magician doesn\'t really feel threatening to me at all. And I mean it in the sense that I am comfortable being around him and that I could crack a joke because I believe that he won\'t pettily turn me into an abomination. Obviously, I\'m still scared of his capabilities and I will surely not disrespect him in any way. Except inside my head, of course.

I can curse him all I want in my mind. Just please don\'t tell me that he could read it.

Janus smirked.

"But aren\'t I helping you a lot? I even let you gain access to all the archives. That\'s a privilege only you currently have," he proudly said.

Oh, is that so?

"Well, thank you very much for granting me this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Lord Janus," I preached. "And thank you very much for giving me such privilege."

"That sounds insincere," he instantly rebuked.

I shook my head, "No, I am being very much sincere."
