Leon would follow as he did perviously, trying to push himself slightly more in the physical training. While in the magic lesson he started to get better nearly perfecting the design. Hand drawing circles perfectly wasn't easy so he always had some trouble, but his mental picture of it had started to form fairly well on the design.
The master would conjure forth some cups and water after Lyida asked, giving 'em to them, he would look at max "looks like something has finally started to click..." he states before looking back at the others. "hm.... I suppose it's about time I start teaching about mana" he tells them, sitting cross legged on the ground "sit like me" he states to them before taking a deep breath. "Mana is the essence of magic... it's what makes our runes work and the glorious effects of magic to come into existence." he would look over them keeping a good eye on weither they are truly paying attention.
"After awakening your bodies, they now naturally draw in mana into them from your surroundings, filling yourselves up, however you have a limited amount you can use" he chuckles "there is three main ways to increase this, one is the phyiscal training.. it will minorly increase your total capabilities while making sure your body is able to hold more at the same time, the second however is to constantly expend your mana, allowing more mana to enter your body.. there is a downside to this, you'll experience mana sickness by running out of mana... your emotions will become heavily depressed and your body sluggish, headaches, nose bleeds and more" he tells them "thats if you don't just pass out as well, this is painful process when you run out of mana" he shakes his head with a grin "however it can let you expand your mana quicker.. the third method is the most dangerious of these there.. you compress your mana inside your self to make your mana more denser.. though this is a temporary method since once you use it you'll have to spend time to compress your mana to that state again" he tells them "however if you mess up.. you will explode from the compressed mana expanding rapidly." sighing "these is other methods but they all have their own downsides and requirements.. now for how to use magic.. if you concentrate on the core of your being, this may take a while, but you should start being able to feel something inside you... a warm essence, though it might look different depending on your natural talents" chuckling "best way to concentrate is to meditate, by meditating you can start to train yourself to connect to your mana.... when your able to do this I want you to cox your mana through your body your entire body and back to your core" he instructs them. "this is to let you get a feel on how to control your mana, eventually you'll be able to sense when there is any sign of instability." he explains "I'll explain how to use spells afterwords but for now this is what I want you to practice" he states.
