Morning came and Eli excitedly got up to prepare.

Today is the day!

Olivier will finally teach her the basics of summoning!

Although Eli had used the book of knowledge in searching how to do summoning, she still wanted to hear from those who had used these skills in real life.

"I wonder what kind of awesome things I will learn from today's lessons!" Grinning from ear to ear, Eli cheerfully went outside the cottage.

What she first saw was Baobao clearing up the front backyard so that it would be suitable for training.

Rolling a large piece of log Baobao greeted Eli happily, "Master! Are you ready for our training?"

After he finished rolling the log on a spot with a cool shade, he turned it sideways to be a log chair.

"Master, you can sit here!" With his furry paws, he pointed on the log chair he just rolled and beckoned Eli to sit.

"Thank you, Baobao!" Eli obligingly sat on the log chair while Wisey very normally perched on Baobao's shoulders.

Seeing his master excited Baobao also happily smiled and sat beside her with his signature panda sitting posture.

Olivier, who was initially busy flipping the pages of the thick stack of paper, approached the bunch and greeted everyone. He gave everyone a polite smile, far from his cheerful demeanor.

Today he was a summoner knight, tasked to train his Master's future wife. He needed to do the job well and safe, so as to not jeopardize Eli's condition.

Clearing his throat he then greeted everyone who were looking at him with eagerness, "Good morning My Lady, Baobao and Wisey! Today, we will start your training to get stronger!"

"Yay!" Eli cheered excitedly, clapping with her hands like a young student.

"Yay~~~" Baobao and Wisey also followed their master's enthusiasm and cheered.

"Ehermmm, I'll do my best to teach you the fundamentals!" Olivier became a little bit tense seeing the enthusiasm of the group.

"Let's start with how mana receptor works!

You all know that summoners possess a very distinct constitution right? But do you know why it works like that when humans share the same physical anatomy?" Olivier threw the question to his listeners with an excited expression.

Everyone tilted their head sideways and threw a questioning look towards Olivier.

"Hmm, that was because of our mana receptors!

Every being in Prasinos has mana receptors. Yet these receptors could generally be categorized in three ways - by the race that being belongs to, by the shape of the mana receptors they had, and by their capacity!"

First, let me explain the difference by race.

If you are a human, your mana receptors would look different from the mana receptors of the elves. But this will be distinguishable by color. Human mana receptors are colored blue, Elves have yellow green mana receptors, Dwarves have golden brown and so on.

Even the plants you see, and the non magical animals they all have mana receptors. The whole spectrum of color represents a group of creatures. That's the first difference.

The second is by shape. I know that you already know the three major types of constitution. These constitutions basically existed because of shapes of their mana receptors.

The round shape mana receptors were possessed by the caster types. With the rounded mana receptors, one could convert magical energy and release it so fast for spell casting.

The vortex in the mana receptors made it possible to do this. Thus, if you possess round mana receptors, you definitely possess a caster constitution!

Summoners have rectangular mana receptors. Because of this shape, the flow of magical energy in each receptors is uneven.

Thus, it takes time for a summoner to convert the energy into usable mana. However, rectangular receptors are very sturdy in nature that they could hold the magical energy for a long time, thus summoners had the highest mana capacity!

Devourers are a bit different, their mana receptors appear like a fibre or little lines.

You know that devourers absorb mana directly into their bodies right? Their line shaped mana receptors are so thin that the absorption of mana into the body is extremely fast, enabling it to enhance their bodily functions and even shapeshift!"

Olivier eagerly explained everything, that he completely turned into a nerd.

"Teacher Olivier, Question!" Eli, the student mommy energetically raised her hands to inquire.

"Yes, what is it, Milady?"

"Teacher, how about the prince! What does his receptor look like when he possesses the open paths constitution?!"

Olivier had an evil scientist's look in his eyes as he answered Eli's question, "Hehehe, milady. I'm glad you asked!"

"Open Path's constitution allows anyone to gain the abilities of all three main types of constitution once you have unlocked each path.

Before, people theorized that the open paths possessor would have all three shapes present inside their bodies.

But that changed when the late Emperor Idelfonso allowed Grand Master Reuben to examine what his rare constitution looked like and discovered that..

His mana receptors change shape according to the constitution he used!"

"Woah!!!" Eli was fascinated about this discovery. She thought that in the future her receptors would also change.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"Alright now, we're down to the last differentiation which is the capacity or the mana receptors. It was the capacity of each receptor to channel mana at a given period. This would determine their class levels, A to F, and special class, S!

If the mana receptors are already in its limit, one would experience receptor fatigue. The receptors would sleep or shut down, and not accept the mana flowing inside the body. At this point in time, the one experiencing fatigue would be like a non magical person.

F class people had a very low receptor capacity that they were already considered as non magic people. Imagine a person experiencing receptor fatigue every minute! The A class on the other hand would not experience fatigue for hours!

It is important that you know this stuff because this is important for every battle. Knowing your limits and knowing your enemies' limits, is an advantage!"

"Woahhhh!" The bunch clapped enthusiastically from Olivier's lecture.

"Alright, alright, now we move to the main topic! Summoning Magic!"

"Osu!!!!" The bunch were pumped up.

"I have already explained that the rectangular shape of the summoner's mana receptors are not ideal for fast conversion of the mana, but very conducive in strong magical energy right?

However, summoners couldn't use mana if they couldn't convert it, and the magical power would stay inside their mana receptors until they die!

That is why summoners needed a medium or a contractor to feed the magical power stored to their bodies and use it to their advantage!

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ But you must take note, it is not true that the summoners couldn't convert mana at all.

The truth is, we were just too slow to convert mana on a battle. Some would take an hour to fully convert mana, some would take days.

But nonetheless the speed would be so slow that if we force ourselves to use mana like how a caster or a devourer would use it we would probably die first before we finished converting.

That is why there were those who choose summoning by contracting beasts and spirit beings that feed on magical energy, converted or not.

Others would be summoners by medium, they choose inanimate items like puppets or weapons because they could convert mana faster than summoners by contracting."

"Teacher! Question!" It was now Baobao's turn to ask innocently.

"Go on Baobao," Olivier answered.

"Then we are at a disadvantage when we run out of mana storage, while the casters and devourers could immediately absorb and convert mana in the atmosphere?"

"Well that was not necessarily the case. The summoner's strength not only lies in our high mana capacity but… Our high tolerance to receptor fatigue!

Because the mana flow in the receptors is slow, our receptors would take long to reach their limit. Thus, we would be the last one experiencing mana fatigue if we are fighting against casters and devourers of the same class.

Adding to that, in the battlefield, summoners are considered as the most efficient users of magical power. Casters and devourers rely on what they could absorb in the atmosphere but the summoners do not.

So if the battle coincidentally happened in a place with very scarce magical energy…" Olivier paused and gave an evil laugh.

"Hehehe, we will be the strongest in that battlefield and they will be the first one to be crippled by mana loss and fatigue!"

"Woaaah!!! Summoners are awesome!" The bunch said in amazement.

"Indeed! Now let's talk about how to be a strong summoner!"

"Yay!" The bunch once again were pumped up.

"There were only two ways to do that! First is to upgrade the master's strength, second is to upgrade their contractor or medium's strength.

So from this point onwards, you will be training separately. Baobao and Wisey will train to strengthen their abilities and strength.

Milady, you will also train to increase your strength. However, we couldn't do physical training because of your pregnancy. But fret not!

Up until you are physically fit to train your bodily strength, we will focus on two things, your mana capacity and your mental strength which enables you to connect with your contractors." Olivier finally explained what each of the bunch's training would look like.

"For now we will focus on strengthening your connection with Baobao and Wisey. This is important especially on the battles to come.

Your training is based on what the Prince had observed with the interaction among the three of you. He created this training regimen."

Olivier then handed down a page from the thich stack of paper the Prince had left behind prior to his departure.

Eli excitedly received the page and read its contents.

But as soon as she was able to see the contents her eyebrows twitched with bafflement.

"Olivier, you might have handed me the wrong paper..." She asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"Milady, that is the correct one." Olivier responded with a respectful smile, ignoring Eli's stupefied face.

Seeing that Olivier wasn't joking the slightest bit, she stared at the contents of the paper:

--Training Regimen to Strengthen Connection with Baobao and Wisey--

--Play the Violin or Piano for four hours, Read Lots of Book for four hours--

"What kind of training regimen is this!"
