Sylvia would've chuckled if she could, so, she just sat down, crossed her legs, and pulled Siglos over to her, plopping him into her lap and putting the back of his head against her enormous meat pillows, which served as a headrest.

"So, since English is probably a lot different in your time compared to mine, you probably have zero idea how to read anything I've written. I don't know if you'll know this technique, but, it'd be optimal to try and use Mana Sight to dissect and translate the language." The man said, "Though if your an Everian you'll probably know how to do it. Hopefully. I'd hope magic didn't degrade to the point an Everian of all races wouldn't know basic Mana Sight..."

Siglos face turned bright red as Slyvia pulled him onto her lap. He hesitated, before slowly leaning his head into her, accepting the headrest. Visibly flustered, Siglos continued to stare at the hologram, more than a bit distracted as he pressed his head against Slyvia.

"M-mana sight...?" Siglos murmured.

"Well as Dad said, if the stomach is empty, the mind too" She said as she smiled walking to the mess hall

The food available seemed to be mostly dried meats with a variety of magically flavored water to drink, the water clearly having been flavored using magic so that the knights who drank it wouldn't increase their sugar-intake through actual mineral based flavoring. There were also some desserts such as cheesecake and ice-cream, which were again artificially created and flavored through magic so that the knights could still eat it without consuming anything unhealthy in the process.

"M-mana sight...?" Siglos murmured.

"That's when you focus Mana in your eyes to analyze things." Sylvia signed, "I read about it once but I don't know how to do it. Apparently enchanters use it a lot to visualize the flow of mana better." She signed, not seeming to mind Siglos leaning into her breasts.

Siglos looked up at Slyvia, somewhat relieved she wasn't uncomfortable with him resting against her.

"O-oh! M-my...enchantments w-were...m-mostly self-taught...s-so I-I guess I..never learned it..." Siglos murmured. He was somewhat embarrassed, not knowing what seemed to be a standard enchanter spell. He turned his attention back to the hologram, hoping he'd get more information.

"I'll take, this, this and then this" Noah said, The dragon was taking several times dried meats, a glass of orange juice and 3 slices of cheesecake

Sylvia just shrugged.

"Now, if you somehow don't know how to use Mana Sight and this is your first time, it'll probably hurt like a bitch if you pump to much mana in your eyes, so, your probably gonna want to have a buddy there to absorb any excess. Preferably a tall, enormous-chested Rakshashin woman. The busty ones always have good capacity for carrying large amounts of uncontrolled mana." The man said, which was weirdly specific, but, Siglos didn't know anything about how Rakshahin biology translated into mana capacity so it'd be best to just go along with it.

Some of the off-duty knights passed glances at her, but they knew she was one of the Archibishop's guests so they just shrugged and went back to enjoying their break.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

"Sugar tastes better than this spell, although it's probably the best thing for this person's mission" She told herself as she continued eating

"...." Siglos glanced at the hologram blankly for a few moments.

"...W-what....?" Siglos murmured. For a fraction of an instant, he wondered where he'd find such a specific person, until he leaned back a bit, accidentally burying his head deeper into Slyvia's chest.

"...O-Oh..." Siglos murmured.

Hesitantly he turned towards Slyvia, his face turning bright red.

"...S-Slyvia..." He murmured, visibly flustered.

"...C-can...y-you help...please?" Siglos said quietly.

"Yeah, sure!" Sylvia signed, picking up one of the book's and opening it. "Try using Mana Sight to read it." She signed.

"Oh, and he's right, Rakshashin mana capacity can be figured out through the size or shape of various body parts. Cain's are her hands and horns, my indicators just happen to be my breasts, so, that's a fun fact!" She then signed right after.

"R-really? I...I guess you learn something new every day..." Siglos said, chuckling a bit. His gaze lingered on her chest for a moment, before quickly snapping back to the book.

"R-right...I-i'll try i-it out." Siglos murmured quietly. Slowly, he began to concentrate. The mana present in his body began to slowly flow upward, surrounding his eyes. He focused it, shaping the mana in an attempt to expand his perception. He leaned down towards the book, staring at the words as he gradually analyzed the patterns. As the man had predicted, he had pumped too much mana into his eyelids, which would cause significant pain if Slyvia didn't come to his aid.

Sylvia covered his eyes with her hands, beginning to slowly add her own mana to the mana that he was surrounding his eyes with, trying to take control of it so that she could help regulate the flow, assuming Siglos allowed her to manipulate it, given forcefully trying to interfere with one's spell without their permission can be bad for both parties involved.

A brief burst of anxiety overtook him as he felt his mana being altered. Slowly, he breathed out, relinquishing the control of his own mana to Slyvia, letting her regulate the flow with her own. The discomfort he was beginning to feel slowly faded, assuming Slyvia was successful.

"T-thank y-you..." Siglos whispered. With his regulated mana, he turned his attention back to the book. Squinting his eyes slightly, he began to analyze the individual patterns of the words, hoping to derive some kind of meaning from them.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(Deadass don't know where else you want me to take Noah now lmao.)

(Idk, maybe go to the training zone or Maybe wait to see who I can annoy with my presence)

Siglos, with Sylvia regulating the flow of his rudimentary Mana Sight for him, was able to understand at least one of the pages. The page detailed an alternative form of Mana Sight known as Mana Hearing, an ability that seemed specific to Everians as apparently their ears are capable of hearing the "sound" produced by flowing mana, which is probably why their ears were so pointy. Possibly the book was on Everian biology, or it just detailed various magic skills, with one of them happening to be specific to Everians. (I don't know if Siglos would have ever experienced hearing any "sound" from mana not concentrated into a spell, so, you can decide whether or not it's a technique he's familiar with or not).

(Then go do that lmao.)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

Noah after finishing and giving thanks, she moved, by curiosity she went to see the Training Zone to see how these people fought and all that

There didn't seem to be any knights training right now, but... there was Jeanne, who was just in there swinging her sword. Blood seeped through her armor, clearly having been keeping an incredibly tight grip on her blade, not even noticing Noah as she entered the room.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

"Why is it that every time I see a person with weapons training I always find them bleeding?" Noah wondered mentally.

(I don't know if Siglos would have ever experienced hearing any "sound" from mana not concentrated into a spell, so, you can decide whether or not it's a technique he's familiar with or not).

Siglos's eyes widened slightly, pouring over the details of the page.

"-it's working." Siglos said softly, the words slowly but surely becoming legible under his gaze. He leaned close to the book, beginning to pour over the information.

"...Mana Hearing..." Siglos murmured. Realization dawned on him. He often remembered hearing soft noises from many of the items he had enchanted. Even his cloak would sometimes hum quietly as he walked, the mana woven into the individual threads seeming to produce a barely audible noise when he focused his attention on it. It was one way he could distinguish if objects were enchanted or not, not having the magic sight necessary to see the flow of mana coming from an object.

"...So...that's why...I can hear them..." Siglos thought. With renewed interest, he continued to scan the page, wondering if he could find anything else.

Sylvia's wings fluttered, showing that she was clearly happy that he was becoming able to understand the words. She hoped he could teach her how to use the technique once he learned how to do it without her assistance.

Siglos didn't seem to be able to read anything beyond the page as that seemed to cover some more complex concepts with words he couldn't understand with Mana Sight. The hologram of the Everian man had long since disappeared once Siglos used Mana Sight, sensing that Mana Sight had been used and thus the instructions were no longer required. Had Siglos not used the technique, though, the hologram may have stayed around longer.

"Why is it that every time I see a person with weapons training I always find them bleeding?" Noah wondered mentally.

Jeanne, still not having noticed Noah, continued her training, blood beginning beginning slowly pool under her. "I think that's how you do it... My balance and precision is good, but I'm wasting to much energy in my swings... I need to control myself more... I can't fall behind..." She thought to herself.

Siglos continued to stare at the page for a few moments, before breathing out. Slowly, he stopped the flow of magic through his eyes, allowing Slyvia to fully dispel it.

“…I…I could only r-read a few paragraphs…b-but it worked!” Siglos said quietly, excitement bubbling from his voice. He looked up at Slyvia, before wrapping his hand around her waist, hugging her. His head still gently leaning into her chest.

“T-thank you, Sylvia.” He said softly, a smile on his face.

Sylvia, after fully dispelling the spell, hugged Siglos back, pulling his face in-between her milk jugs as her wings fluttered in excitement, smiling. Her grip was rather crushing, though.

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

Sylvia, after fully dispelling the spell, hugged Siglos back, pulling his face in-between her milk jugs as her wings fluttered in excitement, smiling. Her grip was rather crushing, though.

Siglos blushed, squirming a bit as he was pulled into the hug. He could feel the air particularly squeezed from his body, the crushing grip practically compressing him into her. Yet the smile remained on his face, fully accepting the hug. It was…comforting, in a way, Siglos finding himself entirely at ease within her grip. He lingered in her embrace, letting her decide when to pull away.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

Jeanne, still not having noticed Noah, continued her training, blood beginning beginning slowly pool under her. "I think that's how you do it... My balance and precision is good, but I'm wasting to much energy in my swings... I need to control myself more... I can't fall behind..." She thought to herself.

Noah sighed, she expected the younger person to be a bit more conservative in terms of blood loss, she turned and went to a secluded place to train, summons her sword, began to practice her basic stance, mentally copying the few knights that she has seen in action

 

[DaReaperMan]

Siglos blushed, squirming a bit as he was pulled into the hug. He could feel the air particularly squeezed from his body, the crushing grip practically compressing him into her. Yet the smile remained on his face, fully accepting the hug. It was…comforting, in a way, Siglos finding himself entirely at ease within her grip. He lingered in her embrace, letting her decide when to pull away.

"Should I leave you two alone?" Khadgar asked jokingly as he began reading

 

[azontr]

Siglos blushed, squirming a bit as he was pulled into the hug. He could feel the air particularly squeezed from his body, the crushing grip practically compressing him into her. Yet the smile remained on his face, fully accepting the hug. It was…comforting, in a way, Siglos finding himself entirely at ease within her grip. He lingered in her embrace, letting her decide when to pull away.

Sylvia finally let Siglos out of the hug after about ten minutes, but she didn't push him away, just keeping him in between her milkers as she moved to scoop up the device that produced the hologram with her wings.

"I don't really care if you stay or leave, but we've gotta get this to Velen now!" Sylvia signed.

 

[azontr]

Siglos blushed, squirming a bit as he was pulled into the hug. He could feel the air particularly squeezed from his body, the crushing grip practically compressing him into her. Yet the smile remained on his face, fully accepting the hug. It was…comforting, in a way, Siglos finding himself entirely at ease within her grip.

(Respond to titty mommy. )

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

Siglos took several deep breaths as Sylvia let go of him. He was completely breathless, only partially because of the crushing weight of the hug. His face was a deep crimson, blushing profusely as he slowly unwrapped his hands from her torso. He turned towards the device, still pressing himself against the women.

“Y….”

“Y-yeah! W…we should show this t-to Velen….” Siglos muttered. He glanced at Khadgar, flashing him an embarrassed smile.

 

[DaReaperMan]

"Let's do so then!" Khadgar said, keeping his grip on it even with it being tugged on

 

[azontr]

"Show what to Velen?" Velen asked as he appeared behind Khadgar, stroking his beard.

 

[DaReaperMan]

"Speak of the devil." Khadgar said, turning around and motioning to the tablet he was holding

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

Siglos jumped up, surprised at Velen's sudden appearance. Quickly, he moved off of Slyvia, standing to his feet next to the woman, a blush still on his face.

"S-Slyvia found s-some type of...device, in the library. I-It contained s-some kind of...light r-recording of an Everian man."

 

[azontr]

Velen took a look at the tablet, "An old recording device used a couple thousand years ago... A Sheika Slate. I never thought I'd see another one in the light of day, but, he must've hidden it in the books, it seems..."

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

"H-he...hid it...?" Siglos asked quietly.

"...T-the man in the slate....w-was it...Cornelius?"

 

[azontr]

"If you saw a blonde Everian man, then yes, that would be him... What did he tell you?" Velen asked.

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

"S-so...It was him..." Siglos murmured. A soft smile briefly appeared on his face, glad he finally had a face to attach to the name. Quickly, he snapped out of it, glancing at Velen.

"W-well...h-he k-knew whoever found the s-slate may not be able t-to read the books in the library. S-so...he showed m-me how to use Magic Sight t-to understand the symbols." Siglos explained.

"T-thanks to Slyvia's h-help, I-I used it to read some of the books." Siglos said quietly.

 

[azontr]

"You... Didn't already know how to use Magic Sight?" Velen asked, stroking his beard. "Usually such a technique is taught at a young age for any aspiring mage or enchanter."

 

[DaReaperMan]

"You... Didn't already know how to use Magic Sight?" Velen asked, stroking his beard. "Usually such a technique is taught at a young age for any aspiring mage or enchanter."

"Back in your day most likely, I doubt it's taught much anymore though." Khadgar said

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

"You... Didn't already know how to use Magic Sight?" Velen asked, stroking his beard. "Usually such a technique is taught at a young age for any aspiring mage or enchanter."

Siglos said nothing for a few moments, looking away from the man.

"...I...d-didn't learn...m-much magic from my parents..." Siglos said quietly. He squirmed slightly, visibly uncomfortable and rather embarrassed.

 

[azontr]

Velen shook his head, "What nonsense. Indeed, back in my day our youth were taught to apply Magic to all 5 senses! Especially Everians! Come here, I'll teach you all 5 senses of magic right now!" Velen said, addressing all 3 of them.

 

[KingEzran]

Velen took a look at the tablet, "An old recording device used a couple thousand years ago... A Sheika Slate. I never thought I'd see another one in the light of day, but, he must've hidden it in the books, it seems..."
