Theo is staring at road in front of him. He is not mistaken. Someone or something out there is constantly emitting mana. In a world of no magic and extreme lack of mana, that is nothing short of incredible.
It can also mean, there is someone else other than him that can do magic. Theo who still hasn't fully grasp this world's mana condition, is immediately vigilant.
Relax, Theo. If someone does know how to use magic, it doesn't mean they are powerful. Because powerful mages do not constantly emit mana, especially not this far. This is clearly a mage who doesn't know how to control their mana properly.
Theo relaxes at the thought. That's right. Mana control. Whoever this is, they lack mana control.
He smiles. I can handle them.
Theo doesn't realize that currently, he is starting to think like a real member of Montrose family. He's worried not for himself, but for Leila and her friends.
