The Extra's Indifference

"You lost." I said coldly and dropped Alicia down like rag.

I turned towards instructor Eliza and speak calmly.

"Won't you announce the winner instructor?"

"Result is obvious. Go back to your place!" Instructor Eliza said harshly.

I went back to my place with calm steps and waited for instructer Eliza to continue.

Instructor Eliza finally started her class properly.

Magic practice class isn't for dueling or sparring. It is to learn how to efficiently using magic without wasting unnecessarily huge amount of mana. Eliza Silver is battle mage, not research mage, hence she knows the best way to use mana more effectively and efficiently.

While instructor Eliza explains the way of efficiency, almost every student were looking at me, no, they were looking at my body.

I forgot that my shirt was burned to ash. So i activated my earring and contacted to Aria.

>> Aria bring me a shirt. <<

>> Hah... Hahh... Yes... master. << Aria said breathlessly.

It seems that i contacted her at wrong time. Well everyone needs some time to themselves.

>> It can wait for a while. You can finish what you are doing. << I said with amused voice.

I am such a good master that thinks my maid's well-being before mine.

"Hey pretty brat! Who did you contact it?" Instructor Eliza said loudly.

"I asked to my maid to get me new shirt. As instructor can see, my shirt got burn and i can't stand like this." I said and gestured my naked upper body.

"I will ignore it for this time. Get permission before contacting someone else." Instructor Eliza said harshly and continued to her class.

'Well i forgot that experienced mages can easily sense movements of mana around of theirs. So what i did right now was my carelessness.' I thought calmly.

After a while later instructor Eliza announced that it's time to practice freely and let students to freely practise.

Alicia Ashtorn came to my side faster than Lucy and nudged me.

"Hi! I am Alicia Ashtorn." She said energetically and brought her hand for handshake.

"Kayle Ceurie." I said calmly and shook her hand.

When i greeted her normally, she became more relax and said fanatically.

"You was so cool when you stepped out from fire pillar as if it was nothing. How did you do it?"

"Is th-" I tried to speak but Alicia didn't stop and spoke again curiously.

"Why didn't you use chantless magic until the end?"

"I consi-"

"Where and how did you get this scar? It looks cool!" Alicia cut me off again and asked with amazement.

"I got fr-"

"Aren't you mage? Why did you train your body?"

"Enough!" I said coldly and stopped her before speaking again, because i thought that if i didn't, she would speak like this for a hour or so.

"Let me speak for a moment if you want answer to your questions." I said calmly, which Alicia nodded excitedly.

I understood that she was energetic one and couldn't stan still for a second. She was moving her body randomly even while standing front of me.

"First of all, i stepped out from fire pillar like nothing happened because i didn't really receive any damage from it."

"For your 2nd question, i didn't use any chantless magic until the last moment because i wanted to do a surprise attack and finish it in 1 move."

"For your 3rd question, i got this scar from [E] rank panther when i was 12. I was immature, so i don't remember it well how i got this."

"As for your last question. Everyone can train their body, it doesn't matter whatever they are mage or not. I trained my body because it would be waste to not train it. According to my father i have great talent for it."

After answering all if her questions, i looked at her for to see her reaction.

Alicia satisfied by my answers, nodded happily.

"Can i touch it?" Alicia asked innocently and pointed my scar.

'Did she really ask this innocently or did she pretend to be innocent? It is impossible, she is 14 for god's sake. It should be impossible for her to not know that touching to someone's body migh cause misunderstandings and rumors.'

'Well let's reject it, if i accept it easily like this, her interest on me might end. I should keep her interest and curiosity on me.'

"No." I said flatly and looked at Aria who came a second ago.

I took the shirt that she handed to me and wore it.

"Thanks Aria." I said and smiled slightly while patting Aria's head.

'Why did i smile for something like this? You can naturally ask. The answer is because cold people's smile are usually more precious and beautiful than normal people's smiles. So what i did was just one of the seduction methods of mine.'

"You can go now. Or else instructor Eliza will make trouble for you too. She is jealous of beatiful people like you." I said.

Aria nodded shyly and went back.

I looked at Alicia's reaction and saw little bit blush on her face.

'It seems that i didn't smile for nothing.'

"Let's talk again later Alicia. I have to practice." I said and turned to back.

"Wait! Let's practice together." Alicia said and grabbed my wrist.

"No need." I shook my head.

"I promised my sister to practice together." I said and began to walk towards to Lucy who was about to explode because of jealousy and anger.

Alicia came to my side again and: "Then let's practice 3 of us!" she said happily and began to walk with me.

"I can't decide this. You have to ask this to my sister." I said flatly.

I came front of the Lucy and spoke lightly.

"Hello Lucy. How are you faring? Did you properly understand what instructor explained?"

"I more or less understand Kayle. But are you okay after that bitch pressured you like that? And why this girl is with you?" Lucy's said calmly.

She was eerily calm. if i didn't know her, i would believe her calm facade.

"I am rather fine, but don't call her bitch. She is just pitiful soul with imperfections like every human." I said calmly and side hugged her.

Lucy who heard what i said looked at me blankly.

>> Mind your words my dear, that bitch may be listening us. She is a bitch but before that she is expert mage that borders to master mage. << i said telepathically.

"Alicia wanted to join us for the practice but as you know Lucy. It isn't my place to decide whatever she will join or not." I said and passed the responsibility to Lucy.

Lucy looked at Alicia with determining eyes and nodded.

"You can join us." Lucy said to Alicia and brought her hand for handshake.

"Call me Lucy."

Alicia who saw this jumped to Lucy and hugged her.

"I am Alicia but you can call me Cia!" Alicia said happily.

'Oriod said that she was fiery and destructive but she is just energetic and friendly. It seems she will get along well with Lucy but if she get too close to Lucy i have to eliminate her. I don't want Lucy to take or give any emotional support from someone other than me.' I thought calmly.

Afterwards we started to practice.

"You are doing it wrong Lucy. You shouldn't push your mana. You have to order it." I said to Lucy who was having hard time doing what instructor explained.

"Think mana as your golem that you can easily order. You can't easily push it because of it's weight but you can order it around to do various task."

"I am trying but it doesn't work Kayle." Lucy said sadly.

I thought about what can i do to show Lucy to properly ordering to mana. She has great talent but she couldn't do it this. I got 2nd thoughts of difficulty of the ordering mana.

I opened my shirt toward to my left part of my chest and gestured Lucy come here.

"Touch it and try to sense my mana's movements but don't release your mana." I said and pointed to my left part of my chest.

"Is it alright to do this in sight of everyone?" Lucy said shyly.

"What are you talking about? Just touch it and try to sense my mana's movements." I said calmly and put her hand to my chest.

Lucy snapped out that from what i assumed was her silly daydream and closed her eyes.

>> Brother normally mana circles would be around of the heart but yours is in your heart. Why? << Lucy asked curiously.

>> You are partially wrong my dear. My mana is in my blood rather than in my heart. It is unique constitution of mine. No one knows this, so don't tell anyone about this. Okay? It will be our little secret~. << I said calmly.

>> Hehe... Our secret. <<

After speaking with Lucy, i moved my mana in my body freely for a minute or so and stopped.

"Did you understand, what i said about it?" I asked to Lucy.

"I think, i understand." Lucy said and moved her mana.

I looked at her mana movements.

"Well, it's not bad, you got the gist of it. All you have to do is just practice like for a long time." I said and patted Lucy's head.

"Hey! I can't do it too, show me too!" Alicia said loudly.

I pushed her face, which was inappropriately close to mine.

"Unfortunately, i can't. We don't have time. Class will end in a minute." I said

Alicia lowered her head with regret.

"Then can you teach me later?"

"I will think about it."
