Luna, as I have explained earlier, has its roots originating from the Moon, is a race specialising in magic exclusively of its own. Ummm… how should I explain it…. Okay, listen here,
There exists another form of magic, that is more niche towards the Moon, that is present on the Moon. While it is niche towards the Moon, in traces it is also present on Planet Vermillion as well. That energy, let's call it Lunar Energy, is sothing that only Luna, and those blessed by Luna's can use without restraints in their lifeti.
Now, back to Luna, they are a species with pure white skin, elf-like long delicate ears but without any natural affinity towards them; ans that they can't use the energy of nature, unlike Elves who can freely manipulate it. Luna's main powers are shown more at night than during dayti, that too maximises in the presence of the moon.
Now, there is much more to their bodies and their energies, but the main thing about their body is that it is pure in several aspects. Their body rejects even small amounts of normal elental magic present in the food and other stuff… hence the problem Irene was facing. What I did was remove and replace that energy with my Spirit Magic… Spirit Magic is almost as pure, if not purer than Lunar Magic.
The energy they have inside their bodies, it never interacts with the normal mana present around us, but only with the traces of Lunar energy present around us. That is why they tend to be weaker in their physical attributes during birth but later on gain another way of absorbing the Lunar energy through breathing, which is taught to all the Lunas.
Looking at Irene, she did attain so thod, I presu, otherwise her getting into the Academy wouldn't have been… wait! Isn't she just in the first year right now, about to give the exam? Don't tell she entered by an unorthodox thod? Ah! Now it all makes even more sense.
There are multiple ways of getting into the Academy. As long as you show your excellence in sothing that is worthwhile, you are allowed to enter the Academy but the second year requires you to at least be strong enough to defeat a C-Grade opponent… hmmm… now that I think about it, she isn't that strong either…
I guess she excels in sothing, and entered the Academy using that, but since she couldn't up her combat skills no matter what she tried, because of her body nature, she decided to leave the Academy? Damn, that's unfortunate…
....
"Irene…. Do you know about the Luna Clan?" I asked as I looked at her face with a curious look and all I got in return was a puzzled expression on her face.
I then sighed before speaking,"do you know the reason why you… no wait! Hmmm… okay. Can I ask you 3 questions? If you answer them honestly, I think I can help you find a way to get stronger in exchange for sothing that I need you to do later for ?"
She looks at with a serious expression before slightly nodding and I smile back at her before speaking,
"You are leaving the Academy because of your weak constitution, right?"
She looks at , shocked, for a few monts before asking in a slightly raised voice,"How did you-" but she stops midway then looks around, and after making sure that no one was around us, she looks at again as she gulps and speaks in a hushed manner,"I haven't told about this to anyone… how did you know?"
"Well… I guess I was right," I spoke making it look like I guessed and she got a bit confused whether I really knew it or I just tricked her into telling but she kept looking at silently as I phrased my next question,
"The more you try to train by normal thod, the more your power decreases and you get sick or sothing like that?"
And yeah, once again she looked at with an extrely shocked look, as if her deepest secret got exposed. She gulped a little before speaking,"how… who are you? How do you know so much? Zero…"
Well, she being a Luna was equally shocking to as well… Damn! And the fact that a Luna without using Lunar energy could survive this long… is also very shocking… is she high in status or sothing?
The reason her using normal energy deteriorated her health was once again the sa, and that was her pure body and its tendency to reject normal mana.
"My final question… well, I have two questions, but I guess I will go with this one… Do you have a tattoo on your back or sothing? Sothing that is a symb-" as I was speaking, she covered my mouth with her hands as she stared directly into my eyes with a complicated yet scared gaze before speaking,
"What exactly are you? Those symbols…"
'Aren't visible… except to a Luna and those blessed by Lunas… and too,' I thought completing her sentence before she removes her hand from my mouth and I speak,
"I can help you get stronger… I think I can even tell you about your origin. Though I want sothing in return-"
"Yes!" she speaks imdiately, without any hesitation, as she looks at resolutely. Her eyes were dead set and I kind of sighed before speaking.
"At least listen before you agree."
She, without any change in her expression, continues her words,"I don't have any hope… you have no idea what is going on in the Academy right now and now that I have a chance to change things… I am not letting it go… even if I have to…"
Though she turns silent at the end as she looks at once again with slight gulp and I chuckle a little before speaking,"I am not interested in young girls," and then I use fire magic to heat the coffee again before passing it to her as I speak with a really 'kind' smile,
"Well then. Let's talk about the deal, shall we?"
