As they entered Alvish noticed that same short shy girl she had seen that day. But today she seemed to have a friend with her. That girl had mid-back length yellowish blond hair and blue eyes, visible through her round glass and was wearing a peach coloured pair of jeans. She also had a round face and was wearing a white shirt and light pink vest over it with a bow around her neck that was as wide as her chin. When walking she was looking down to her right a bit since Kamika was around her chest in height and she was talking to her. Her fashion looked quite formal and nerdy in their eyes.

"Oh, Reada!" She said as she noticed Reada along with Kamika. Though, her accent sounded a bit non-native. "Wish to join us?"

Alvish and Rem were equally surprised. Especially to find out that she knew him. But they still continue standing there cluelessly without asking who she was.

"Not really?"

"Who are these two, by the way?" She asked as she acted to have noticed them.

"Oh them? They are new here, Mal." He then turned to them and said, "Guys, meet her, she is MyAnimeList. Now introduce yourselves."

"Come on, Reada. You will not just die by saying my whole name!" That girl complained.

Kamika had today too got shied away and was standing there quietly while holding her soccer ball while looking down. But nobody seemed to care about her.

"Aa- excuse me," Alvish decided to introduce herself first. "I'm Alvish and I presume you're her friend." She said while looking at Kamika, "I had met her and Ms Flame the day before yesterday. She had told me to get here to receive my first lesson from her today!"

"Oh… her friend?" She pondered. "Sure, I'm!"

*SPANK*

All of a sudden they all saw her casually land her right hand on Kamika's right butt cheek. And they heard a loud sound of her ass being spanked.

"Though that means you are not going with them? Why don't you come and join us then?" She continued while looking down at her with a flirty smile on her face. "What do you say? Won't that be good, Kami?

Everyone was startled and then their face turned red, except for Reada, after witnessing that they shared such a relationship. Kamika, on the other hand, reacted to it in the same way with her extremely embarrassed face. But her eyes were also looking at her with anger. Like she was telling her telepathically that she'll deal with her later.

"I'm Rem, by the way, I'm also here for that same business!" Rem also introduced himself after seeing that with excitement.

"Rem? That's a cute name. I'm Melissa, Mechamon!" She then raised up her hand for a handshake while introducing her and Alvish shook hands with her.

Reada, who was just standing there and was watching all this, picked up his call, which had suddenly started ringing. And then landed it to Melissa while telling her to have a talk. It was Flame who had called him.

"Yes yes, she's here. But oddly there is another boy too." Melissa said in response after hearing the call.

"WHATT!!" Flame's voice said from the other end. She sounded surprised and it was so loud that even everyone outside of the phone was able to hear it.

"Ayy-ay, please don't shout out like that, miss!" She quickly said and handed over the phone, back to Reada.

"Come on, bitch. Just listen to me for once…" He whispered something into the phone after saying that.

"IT'S MY HOME, YOU BASTARD! Stop Using It For Your Silly Acts!!" Flame shouted from the other side but Reada instantly muted the call and passed it back to Melissa. "It's fine, fine! She'll understand, talk to her!"

Melissa tried to understand the situation and took the phone. She unmuted the call and talked to her and after some moment their conversation finally ended with some yeses.

She then turned to Rem and told him that he'll come with her and Kamika. And said to Alvish to go to Flame, who was sitting in that same veranda as she was sitting on that day. She also told Rem that Flame had told him to join them so he had to agree.

Both of the groups went their separate ways. Reada ended up joining Alvish though, and they two went to the left side of the house. And there Alvish saw Flame sitting on that same chair from that set of table of chairs. But today there was a strange crystal ball, resting on the top of her lap while her legs were on the table and she was busy cleaning her nails with a sewing needle.

She instantly swung her arm as she saw Reada and the needle flew towards them. Ironically, it didn't hit him. Instead, it stopped as it hit the wooden chair beside Alvish.

"Hey! Be careful! What if it had hit me!" Alvish immediately complained in surprise as she watched that needle start vibrating while being stuck on the chair by its nib.

"Worry not, girl! We are especially trained for this!" Flame again replied boldly. "Though pick it up, you're gonna have to train with it." She then said and threw that crystal ball towards Alvish. But she couldn't catch it and it fell on her leg.

"Aaw, My Feet!"

"What are you doing? Don't break it, it's expensive!" She said in an annoyed manner. "Get over it already! Nothing much will happen, and pick it up!"

"Oh really? And why does it cost more than my leg then?"

"Just pick it and get that needle, then I'll tell you!"

Alvish did as she was told and then Flame said, "Now balance it on this needle for a minute!"

"The fuck?" Alvish said in shock as she found it to be bullshit, "A MINUTE?? Have You Gotten Crazy Or Something! No one can seriously do something like that!"

"It is possible Alvish!" Reada suddenly said, giving his heroic entry and stanched that crystal ball and that needle out of her hand.

He then brought the needle in front of his vision and placed the crystal ball on top of it while he pulled his hair with his other hand to tilt and crack his neck.

The ball stayed balanced for almost a minute and then he brought it down to his hand. And Alvish was stunned to see it.

"Wait- have you taught him too?" She quickly turned towards Flame and asked.

"Alvish, you think this bitch can? I'm the MC here!" Reada said and again placed aside the hair which were now blocking his view.

"It's really not that hard." Flame said and reached out her arm, asking for those two things and Alvish passed them to her. "Actually these crystal balls are made up of a special material… Aa… what was it called.... Nigmin!" She struggled to recall while she actually managed to balance that ball on its nib. And then after some moment she let the needle slip down through her fingers and fall, but surprisingly that ball continued to hover over her palm, in the air. "They actually share a special property. If over 10 linic is applied on them then they start floating around."

It was like magic for Alvish. It was something completely out of her expectations. She had never thought or seen something float over someone's hand like that before.

"Humans never discovered something that could do everything. What they discovered has always been a method that could do something, and by that something they had to figure out how to do everything." Flame continued, "Listen here, it's just like telekinesis. But even with that it doesn't mean you'll pick up a glass of water with feet, just because you have telekinesis. Similarly, we don't always use our Linic but use a more convenient method for doing things."

"So I just have to balance that ball for like a minute and it'll start levitating over my hand?"

"There's no fixed time, it can even be 30 minutes for you, who knows? Normally this level of concentration is achieved via Yogs, playing chess or gaming etcetera. But eventually it'll happen. Another thing to keep in mind is," She said and lifted up her arm and that crystal ball over her hand also got lifted up in the air. "that you can also use your body parts for aiming and guiding your Linic. Like here, in my case I'm guiding my linic through my fingers so that it would be focused around the ball, making it levitate. You can also guide and aim without using anything but it'll take time and training."

"Really? Do you think just using my hands and fingers would make such a difference?" Alvish asked as her eyes squinted in confusion.

"Yes, take a seat and try it." Flame said while pointing at the chair on the other side of the table.

Alvish took the Crystal ball and that needle also while taking a seat. She tried to balance it but it was tough for her. And it became tougher and tougher as time passed by because her hand was also getting tired. Though suddenly, from somewhere a curious question emerged in her mind.

"Flame, if you don't mind can I ask you something?" She asked a bit nervously not being sure if she'll answer it for her or not.

"Sure." Flame said. Reada was also sitting beside her.

"What's your other shade?"

"Huh? And why do you think I should answer that? Ain't it rude to be asking a lord about their shade unless you aren't one? What are you, spying on me?"

On the other side, Melissa and Kamika were asking Rem questions about his shade. Flame had asked them to do that earlier.

"So you have the eyes of rememorari?" Kamika asked. Melissa was also standing beside her and was seeing the whole act.

"Yes, and it allows me to—" Rem tried to explain.

"Shut up! I already know everything about that shade. You were about say that it allows to recall anything that you have seen or done while it was activated, right?" Kamika guessed.

Rem was looking at her surprisingly as he was wondering how she was able to talk so freely, now that she was talking to him.

"Yes,"

"Still, when I asked what had happened some moment ago, you were able to tell everything accurately even while I had left my phone to track the difference." Kamika continued, "Personally I don't really think there any room to improve. You are sure, you really want to become a lord? Because I think you'll fit in the support groups? No More? What do you think?"

"Come on, Kami? What's better than becoming a lord, especially when they'll have her!"

"Hey, call me by my name properly!!" She said boldy, like she didn't like it for some reason.

"But why, it's such a nice name! Don't you think so too, Melissa?"

"Personally, I agree!" Melissa said and raised her hand while hiding a smile.

"Shut Up!! Only He's Allowed To Call Me That!" Suddenly Kamika shouted and it caught all of them off guard. She turned and said while pulling Melissa's hair, "Really Bitch, Do you wanna get some beating?"

"Aaw! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I was just messing with you!"

"And you! I told you to call me by full name, respectfully? You know how better that is, right?"

"But Kami, I didn't mean it in any disrespectful way, it's actually a nice name!"

*SLAP!!*

Rem's left cheek got red as she received that slap from the same hand she was grabbing Melissa's hair with.

"Hum!" She turned and went away. Everyone was surprised that she had actually hit him.

Melissa got up and saw that Rem was feeling a bit more unconfident because of that hit. She covered her arm around him, getting him under her armpit and said, "Don't worry, she's actually a nice girl. But she actually likes Reada, so she's only shy around him!"

…

"Really, I had never thought Rem would run away like that after finding out that we were training to become a lord!"

"Not we but I!"

"Yes, but I don't think I really mind that he ran away. What do you think, Reada?" Alvish asked. Suddenly her Phone started ringing.

Assuming it might be her parents from the time, she picked up the call. It was from a contact saved as 'Areo Alips'.

"Hello, papa!" She said as she held her phone close to her ear. It was her father.

"Alvish! How's the day going, my daughter?" He asked from the other side.

"So far, it's going good. What about you?"

"Nothing, just some free time so I'm calling you!"

"I'm walking home now with Reada!"

"Reada! Oh, so it's that boy now, that you always say is very smart and strange, right? Can you hand over the call to him, I wanna talk to him!" She looked left to him strangely as her dad asked her that. But then she put the phone to Mic so that she could also hear what he'll say to him.

"Hmmm Reada? I've heard you're quite intelligent, so much that now you're helping out my daughter!"

"Yes, uncle, surprisingly." Reada stated.

"—the way, I had met your mother somedays ago. She said you don't give much time to your studies nowadays? Is that true?"

"Actually uncle, I am kinda busy these days."

"Oh! Is that because of Alvish? Wait- why don't you let me ask you a question then? It'll simply answer your need of testing your IQ? Won't it? Tell me, what's a prime number?"

"I don't know!" Alvish looked left at him when she heard that. It was because it was such a simple question that even an elementary school kid could answer ac

cording to her. Though she was in shock now because that unusual side of Reada, that didn't interest in answering questions had emerged. And she was surprised to see that.
