Travis knew immediately what Felix was going to describe once he drew out his diagram on the white board. Felix began to describe much of the basis with innate mana wells and the use of mana crystals, namely blue quartzs due to their reliability. Eventually he then walked through the the process of mana transfusion and what Travis could identify as reaping or more plainly, stealing. While he already knew much of this, the went ahead and jotted the notes down in correlation to the observation made on their experiment; on the plus side, it never hurt for a simple review and brainstorming new ideas.

"Hmph...So much for trying to use it as a battery," Travis frowned upon hearing Felix declaring that the Paragon could not be used with spell. He too gazed at the Paragon without his manalysis to ponder the facts presented to them.

After a brief moment of thought, he recalled a previous briefing made by Felix.

"Then again...way before we left for the catacombs, you mentioned there was feasible evidence that the earlier Enlisters of the Societas Academia somehow used the Paragon in order to recruit capable students, well before reverse engineering the means to do so today without it. How'd they get Espial to cooperate without sapping them?"
