Though Sheila had introduced herself as a mage back when she saved her in the mountain, Angelica didn\'t believe her word at that time. After all, she had witnessed the spell of magecraft with her own two eyes. There are two different things which were the magecraft couldn\'t be conjured easily or it will result in a lot of problems, and the power is not nearly as powerful as Sheila\'s. If modern mage could do such a thing, they won\'t bother hiding from the public.

Although it is possible that the magecraft had gotten breakthrough, it shouldn\'t be so much that one can immediately conjure a spell easily without any preparation required. What Angelica thought was it\'s either from Sheila\'s own power or the \'Origin Magic\' of the forgotten past, the latter seemed unbelievable as the history has proven itself that no such thing could stay the same forever. 

The mage of the past was actually a lot more fearsome than the modern mage which clearly shown that their magecraft has been degraded to the point that a mage now required a tool to conjure a spell or it won\'t work. The so-called \'tool\' is just a mage signature weapon in all fictitious stories, a staff. 

Mia had also brought one with her which is inside the guitar-size case onto her left, one would normally think she was just a guitar maniac who carried the case everywhere with her. All beginner or apprentice mage would usually have to carry around a staff with them if there are far away from the Mage Association influence, the same goes to Mia. 

The reason being so that they could protect themselves in case they were in some sort of dangerous situation by using the spell enchanted into the wand to ask for help from the Mage Association. Or they could simply fight against the danger on their own, which is nothing but impossible as with their meager knowledge of magecraft, there\'s no way they actually knew an offensive spell. So at the end of it, the wand was only useful to call out for help.

Every wand of a mage had at least one basic spell enchanted into it which was called, Mystic Rune. The rune\'s ability was utilized to suck the \'mystic power\' in the surrounding air into the wand and use it as the \'energy\' to conjure the spell. Even if one memorized everything about the spell, without it, the spell won\'t take effect.

Although the mage had known about how every human had at least, a bit of mystic power within them, they were still unable to figure out a way to make it possible for use in magecraft. That was why they could only use the runes and enchanted it into a tool. As to how Angelica knows about this? It was hardly a secret, even more, her family also had done quite a few experiments on the treasure that were given to them from That Person.

All because they wanted to figure out a way to control the mystical power to bend reality to their will. But even after all the years had come to pass, they only managed to develop a few weapons before coming to a halt for various reasons. 

In short, Angelica already knows that Sheila is not a mage yet somehow the latter was able to manifest the same effect but stronger as those who learned actual magecraft. She had done a second background check on her but didn\'t find anything abnormal in her record, everything was perfectly normal. The only thing that she finds it strange was that a month ago, Sheila\'s grade seemed to get noticeably better, in fact, it surpassed even the Class Leader. Because of how surprising such an event was, Angelica could easily find such information by simply asking about it.

There is also another that appeared to be quite interesting, it was said a few days later after such an event had transmitted, Sheila who was known as a \'ghost\' in P.A class due to how her figure always \'disappeared\' whenever the class came up on time, but that didn\'t happen on that particular day onward. Before she was titled as a \'ghost\', she was known as someone who has a weak body and couldn\'t do much in P.A Class. That was the reason why she becomes a \'ghost\' whenever the time for that one particular class comes up, the teacher didn\'t punish her as they understood her well enough.

The day when Sheila make her appearance known on P.A Class caused quite an uproar, it was especially shocking when she had shown her improvement in stamina as even after all the physical activities they had done, she only let a couple of sweats. Angelica wonders if this got something to do with Sheila and her abilities, or it might be completely normal as the reason how her stamina had undergone improvement might be due to exercising daily like how the others could do the same.

But those two are not enough to prove that she, in fact, have a power of her own that seemed to be the same as magecraft yet different. If it was a whole new power, the situation might be more serious than she thought. Angelica couldn\'t help but remember the war that had happened once in the past with the Church which caused her to visibly flinched for a second at the thought. She wasn\'t alive when it happened but she heard from her mother that countless lives were lost during that time. Just thinking about it brought chills to her whole being, thankfully when a new Pope took the mantle, the Church had undergone a few changed.

If it was someone else, they would have probably try to capture and torture her to spit about her power. But Angelica was not like that as she would rather make an ally instead of becoming an enemy as that would be a spit to the one she dreams of to be. That was why she brought her friend here to show her goodwill by giving Sheila the information she might need for the future in case she came across a problem with the Mage Association. This way, Sheila would also owe her another favor which would benefit her in the long run. 

***

When Sheila heard the word spoken by Angelica, she really wants to start inquiring the girl sitting opposite of her about the magecraft, but when her gaze met with the latter, she could only put a helpless smile as it seemed that she won\'t be getting any information without giving anything in return just by the look on Mia\'s face. That\'s fine with her as there\'s nothing free in the world, it was given that she had to pay a price in return for the information she will get. 

Perhaps, she might be able to invite the mage into her group? Since she was already planning on taking Angelica, it won\'t be a problem if there\'s another one. Sheila believes if she reveals a bit of her magic, there\'s no way Mia could resist not inquiring about it. With that thought in mind, Sheila couldn\'t help but grin amusedly, wondering what sort of face would the latter show her once she did that. While Mia who didn\'t know anything, couldn\'t help but feels the chill running through her body when she saw the girl seated in front of her grinning at her for some unspoken reason.

Is she planning on capturing me now that Angelica had exposed my identity?! Noooo! I didn\'t even write my will yet, I don\'t want to be taken away only to get tortured for fun! But I also couldn\'t escape since I don\'t know any offensive or defensive spell, heck I didn\'t even learn much from the teacher anyway! Ahhhhh! Someone, Help me! While Mia was having a wild delusion running in her mind, Sheila was wondering what kind of spell she would like to showcase to the latter. It has to be amazing yet not too powerful or she might scare her off.
