…I don\'t want to make mother remember those times, to be honest, so I just decided to go with the flow and not ask any more questions that were not regarding the classes she was giving to us. Aquarina and Zack also quickly realized that it was better to leave her be for now, as we concentrated into her classes, relieving her as well.

Apparently, Darkness Magic were not just the manipulation of shadows, and it was something that even mother was able to use as a wielder of light. You would think that because she was a saint she wouldn\'t be able to wield dark magic, but that was in fact not true at all… She was able to wield it rather masterfully.

"I have attained Tier 7 Darkness Magic Spells, of course, those are not even comparable to the Tier 10 that Shade had attained, but it is still above the average in many terms amongst fellow Elves." Said my mother. "Children, in this world, people is capable of wielding and conjuring all types of magic, there are not restrictions, but there are what we call Affinities. Everybody is born with a certain affinity, depending in your elemental affinity, you will be able to wield some magic better than others. Sometimes, these affinities are so powerful that you would even be capable of conjuring stronger magic than normal, and even conjure it without the need for a specific magic circle creation… Nonetheless, we elves are specially good using magic, especially those of noble birth such as myself, that combined with our long lifespan allows us to explore, learn, and master a lot of magic elements, even when our affinities don\'t match them."

My mother sat down over her chair while sighing a bit, her belly was getting bigger every week, and my little sibling was making it hard for her to stand up all the time. She caressed her belly gently as she continued her explanation, waving her hand.

WOOMMM…!

And right there, darkness gathered within her hand and a sphere of shadows was formed.

"This is the most basic Darkness Attribute Spell, Darkness Sphere, it deals small amount of damage, even an average man can survive a blow in the head, but several ones could kill somebody that is not strong enough to sustain damage… Any questions?"

"It is… dark!" Said Aquarina. "Is it made of shadows?"

"It\'s boring…" Said Zack.

"Is that the most basic of darkness attribute spells?" I wondered.

"Yes, it is made of shadows, Aquarina. And it is indeed very boring, Zack. And yes, Sylphy, this is the most basic spell but not the only one there is within the low tiers. Darkness magic is special because of the branches of magic it creates." She said. "You know about the existence of High Magic, right? There is an almost endless combination of Magic Elements in this world, from the most basic elements, countless branches emerged that converged different attributes together, or even simply specialized in the effects of certain spells within the basic elements which then became their own elements. The true essence of darkness magic is not shadow manipulation, as Shadow Magic is for that, which is an early branch of Darkness Magic that was found long ago, I believe the true essence lay on… Curse Magic."

"C-Curse magic?" Asked Aquarina. "D-Does papa use it?"

"Of course he does! Curse Magic and Shadow Magic go hand by hand with Darkness Magic, they\'re the trio that you cannot forget when you\'re learning Darkness Magic. But Curse Magic is often seen as a more terrible magic, and also quite difficult, it can curse a person, a target, or even objects, granting them different, often negative effects." Said my mother, as her eyes shone with wisdom that only an elf that has researched magic for hundreds of years could have.

"Your father uses Curse Magic rather interestingly, as he applies it to all his attacks, every enemy he fights will get cursed severely, they\'ll grow weaker, slower, and easier to handle for Shade. He is a speedy fighter that uses stealth and a pair of knives to fight, therefore, he\'ll always have bad matches against powerful and defensive enemies that could easily crush him… This is why your father, Aquarina, abuses Curse Magic."

My mother explained the origin behind the lethality of Shade\'s attacks, it wasn\'t just that his shadows were powerful, nor that his knife techniques were incredible, or that his physique and speed were incomparable, he was also amazing at casting curses on his targets, weakening them in the process and allowing him to abuse his speed even more.

"Everybody has learned Curse Magic one way or the other, Allan has done it, as he applied it to his Fire Magic and his Sword Techniques, although not at the amazing extent that Shade is able to bring Curse Magic, Allan is able to cause Curses on his foes such as Infernal Burn, Strength and Agility Decrease, and more… He uses this to gain a small advantage over foes, but even this small advantage could mean a chance for victory against a powerful foe." My mother smiled rather devilishly, showing off a bit of her inner malice. I suddenly felt a chill run down my spine.

"This is why you\'re all learning Curse Magic, the most basic of spells, so you can add them to your attacks and have a nice advantage over your foes! Curse Magic is rarely taught in the world, so you\'re lucky!"
