Reincarnated As The Villainess's Son Chapter 490 The Fear of World [3]

"My na is Professor Azrael." My voice echoed. "I will teach you how mana works."

That got the attention of the class, well not completely.

So teenage boys were still jesting and talking at the back of the class.

I let out a sigh. "Before we start the class, those who are not interested can leave the class."

There was a buzz within the students before one of them raised their hand.

He was a tall boy for his age with long thick muscular arms.

I gestured him to speak.

"Haven't we already learned about mana?" He asked with a goofy grin on his face. "What's so special about your class?"

I smiled faintly at his question, resting my hands behind my back.

"You've learned about mana," I said. "But have you ever seen it?"

The boy blinked, his grin fading slightly. "What do you an? Mana's invisible."

"That's what they tell you," I replied softly. "Because they don't know how to look."

A small murmur went through the class.

So students leaned forward, their earlier disinterest lting away.

Others crossed their arms, still unconvinced.

I walked toward the front of the class, where a faint layer of dust covered the old wooden desk.

"Mana isn't just power," I continued. "It's life. It's in the air you breathe, the ground you walk on, the blood flowing inside you."

I tapped my finger lightly on the desk.

A soft blue light pulsed beneath my touch, spreading like ripples in water.

The students gasped at the sudden glow.

"Mana is everywhere," I said. "But to use it… you must first feel it."

The light faded as I pulled my hand back.

The room grew silent except for the quiet sound of the wind outside.

The tall boy from earlier cleared his throat, trying to act unimpressed.

"That's just a trick," he said. "Anyone can do that with a crystal or rune."

I turned my gaze toward him, my smile still calm. "You're right. Anyone can, well, if they rely on sothing else to do the work for them."

I raised my hand again, this ti without touching anything.

The air itself began to shimr.

A faint blue mist swirled above my palm, humming softly like a living thing.

"See this? No runes. Just mana."

Now, every eye in the room was on .

The boy's grin had vanished completely.

He stared, wide-eyed, unable to say anything.

"Tell ," I said, my tone gentle. "Does your lesson book teach you this?"

Silence.

Hm, co to think of it why are there more girls in the class than boys?

[]

'Yeah,' I replied ntally. 'It's like she was erased.'

"You are a weird person, Himl." She spoke, taking my attention. "Trying to find another woman when you are living with—."

"There is nothing going on between and Nerissa." I cut her off coldly. "I'm just living with her."
