Chat Group For Magicians 84 Kazuma's Mana Circuits

"You already have breakfast? Why don't you come and eat with me? This Salmon tastes delicious!"

"Uh... No thanks..." I said to Catmod and sit down on the rock that seems to be shaped like a stool.

"Where is Moonlight? I also heard from Miya about a bunny girl, that must be Maple, where are they?" Catmod asked before he licked the bones of the salmon clean.

Before I can answer, Maple and Moonlight arrived. Moonlight is a bit disoriented and ragged. The experience for her must be too much.

"Nekoyamsama!" Maple quickly approached Catmod.

"Maple! What happened to the ruins? You left it alone without any temporary replacement?"

"I allowed Catherina to be the temporary keeper at the moment. I just decided to tag along with Kazumkun and Moonlight-chan to find you as soon as possible. We received a chat announcement by Zacharias earlier about your disappearance and all available people near the last location you disappeared into should be the one searching. Since we are the nearest people, we decided to look for you," Maple explained.

"I see, Zacharias is something to be able to chance upon my accident," Catmod shook his head.

"Did the elves attacked you on the way?" Moonlight asked.

"At first, I don't know a single thing about them but after I saw Miya, I have known the truth that the elves are still alive out there. But I did not expect them to get so wild and cultist all of a sudden. They should be worshipping the forest and not some random god they picked up somewhere," Catmod explained.

The elf earlier approach us and joined in our conversation.

"I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Miya and one of the last elves living on Earth. At first, we elves are still protecting the forests and mountains. Even the wildlife, we had to do it too. However, after our chieftain got an egg from someone who proclaimed himself as a god named Shadow, his behavior took a drastic change which slowly spreads to our tribe. At first, I believed that the chief did manage to get a contact with the god but I soon realize that its not a god but an incarnation of evil. I tried to convince the others but they were treating me as a heretic instead. I found out that the tribe is brainwashed already and will follow orders blindly.

For me to counter the brainwashing, we have to remove the tattoo on our hands when we joined this religion. Before I was brainwashed, I burned the tattoo on my arm and cut off the flesh left on it to remove the tattoo. That way, the effects of the brainwashing won't occur," the elf named Miya said.

Speaking of Brainwashing, didn't Volta also did the same during the first time I saw a monster? If I remember right, that was during the time I ate outside. Volta did it to Erina to make sure that no witnesses are left behind to know the existence of magicians. However, that is mind wiping. I don't know if you can call it brainwashing.

"So, what should we do about this, Nekoyamsama? We can't stay here forever. Sooner or later, those elves will be able to find us here!" Maple looked at Catmod.

"We won't be staying here for very long. We will just be staying here for another day and we will depart," Catmod said before looking at me. "I heard that from Miya that you have the egg that the other elves are looking for. It is the item they are looking for that they mistake me as the one who stole it. Let me see it Kazuma."

"Actually, it's no longer an egg. It hatched already," I said and let out Hikari from my sling bag.

Catmod is surprised to see the little girl floats above while glittering black and white powder fall around like some sort of dust.

"Elemental Pixie! And it's in Chaos Form!" Catmod exclaimed. I don't know why he is so surprised. Is it that rare? Well, they are extinct already so it is rare indeed.

Hikari twirled around the air. Itazura's ears perked up and let go from my neck and plays around with Hikari who also happily played along. Miya's eyes twitched seeing the Elemental Pixie flying around.

"How come this egg already hatched? It should be a few more days or months before it should have emerged from its egg. Just what did you do, boy?" Miya asked.

"Huh? I did not do anything. During the first time I got the egg, it sucked out almost all my mana dry. And during the battle, it only stayed inside this sling bag the whole time. I did nothing special to it," I answered.

"Huh? That is strange. It should be a few months of continuous mana supply. How did it get to hatch so early?" Miya looked at me with strange looks.

"Just how many days did your chief give mana to the egg before it's given to Kazuma?" Catmod asked.

"It's should be 4 days after they got the egg. And from the first time the mana is given to the egg, the egg only takes a small amount and did not even dare to suck all mana that the chief had and yet your mana is almost sucked dry? Just how pure is your mana anyway? Is your mana circuits that exceptional?" Miya looked at me.

"Don't ask me. I had no idea either. Just so you know, I did not intentionally give my mana to this egg, it didn't even ask me if I am willing to give mana to it, heck, it just take the mana without my permission!" I grumbled.

"Of course Kazuma. It's common sense. This is not a talking egg, of course, it won't ask you for mana and will immediately suck in whenever it wants," Maple sarcastically said.

"You didn't know anything about it huh? Well, we should just take a rest. We will discuss what we will be going to do later. For now, just rest there and recover. I know you all had a rough time," Catmod said and continue eating his Grilled Salmon. I have a few questions to ask Catmod but from the looks of it, he won't be answering that. 

Maple, Moonlight and I decided to take a rest on the side. I have taken camping before so I am okay sleeping outdoors. Although it is still morning, I have to conserve my energy in case enemies will attack later. Since Catmod won't be answering some of my questions, only THAT guy can answer most of my questions. With us resting, I decided to visit on his domain and ask him the questions needed with answers.

...

My consciousness seems to be expanding and from what I can see, it doesn't feel like an enclosed space anymore but much more similar to a big room without any kind of furniture and objects to decorate the place. Only the eye-catching Mana tree and the seed floating around it makes the world of my consciousness a bit lonely.

The seed seemed to notice my presence and twirled around before it approached me.

"Oh, you visited here for a change. What a surprise. You need something?"

"I know that you have seen my Mana Circuits. I don't know what is going on but can you tell me why my mana is able to hatch the egg of the Elemental Pixie?"

"I don't know much about that. And as for your Mana Circuits, most of them are sealed. Only one tiny circuit is left behind which allowed you to pitifully use magic."

"You told me about this last time. Do you have methods to release the locks of my Mana Circuits?"

"I can. Though I can only do it once in a month. You have hundreds or thousands even circuits sealed. I can't release them all one by one. If you want to release one of your circuits, there might be some risks and some of your lost memories would be restored. Are you sure you want to remove the locks?"
