Playing With Other Supernaturals Chapter 316

Sona decided to have lunch first before continuing after seeing that Line's not 'functioning' properly. Aika and Koneko took out a blanket and lunchboxes from their bags which taken up the most bulk from their bags.
Seeing that, Line finally got hold of herself and asked the easiest question first, "You're in the Dungeon... Why are most of your supplies is dedicated for lunch?"
The three looked at each other and recalled Medusa's words when she passed them their lunchboxes and repeated it to Line, "Because we can't a good meal pass..."
Line couldn't comprehend their logic. It's as if they're speaking another language. As one of the logistics support of the Loki Familia, she knew the importance of items that could save your life in the Dungeon and it's better not to bring too much as to not hinder their movements. A single lunchbox is fine but she took a peek at their bags, it still has similar boxes of what seems to be food, 'They ran out of potions yet their bag is still full of food...'
"Stop standing there and join us." Sona also sat down and waited for Line.
"...Thank you." Line choose not to think about their answer. If she did, she won't have the processing power for the next kinds of stuff she's curious about.
Their lunch consists of sandwiches, fried chickens, vegetable salads, and warm soup, 'Are we still in the Dungeon? And why is this soup still warm?' A question that Line didn't voice out.
While they were eating, Line finally gathered her wits to ask, "You're lying when you said that you're just a Level 1 with I-rank basic abilities... right?"
The three stopped eating and looked at her, "It's really hard to believe that?" Aika asked.

Line, without hesitation, answered, "Yes."
"...Magic reinforcement seems a lot more effective than we initially thought." Koneko muttered.
"Magic reinforcement? Is that your skill or magic?"
"No," Koneko replied simply.
"Then how..."
"Let me clarify, Line-san. Each one of us doesn't have any skill, magic, or developmental abilities listed in our Falna." Sona finally revealed it.
"That's impossible!" Line immediately refuted it. After all, in this world, although casting magic is possible even without Falna, it would need rituals and long chants. And in Sona's magic, which she showed earlier, it's impossible for it to be cast without a significant amount of time and chant, not to mention, the magic that reinforces the overall abilities and movement skill that Aika and Koneko used. All of that is impossible by the standards she knew.
"Of course it's possible. Who decided that it isn't?"
"This..." Who decided? No one. But it's also true that no one is capable of what they're claiming to do, "Unless... You're controlling Mind directly..."
"Mind? Ah... That's how you call Mana..." Sona muttered.
Hearing that, a light emerged from Line's mind, "The secret you're talking about is..."
"Yep~. As you have guessed. We can control Mind directly without the assistance of chants or rituals. And due to that, we can do a lot of things outside of what Falna can give." Sona then started demonstrating her magic by conjuring water on her left hand and igniting a fire on her right hand.
"...It means that as long as you know how to control Mind... Then the magic you can use is theoretically unlimited as opposed to just three slots from Falna..." Line finally realized that this is their secret, "This is ridiculous..."

"Eh? Not really. It's just you guys decided that it's impossible when it's perfectly achievable. It's hard but never impossible. After all, magic is just the way Mind moves."
"Why tell me this? Honestly, this is beyond my expectations... far beyond." Line started to get nervous as she didn't think it would be something this big that would surely change the way people look at magic. She just couldn't think of all the consequences this knowledge will bring to everyone, but she's sure it'll be world-changing.
"As I told you earlier, you're the person we're just looking for. We need someone to heal us in case we got injuries practicing our magic. As you can see, it isn't to do and chances of Mind going out of our control is a lot higher than just using magic granted by the Falna."
"..." Line finally understood her role in the group, "So anyone is fine as long as they can heal... But why me? There're are a lot of people with better aptitude than me."
Sona, Aika, and Koneko won't tell her that she's the first healer they met for now. So Sona told her another reason, which is the main one, "Because you want to become better... As simple as that." Sona took a liking to her as most people would just give up when they realized that they're not talented and would forever live their lives giving up on their hopes and dreams while Line kept trying and searching for the path she could take.
"And the way you're talking about earlier is..."
"Right. As compensation for keeping our secrets, we'll teach you how to manipulate Mind directly. If you can manipulate Mind directly, you'll have more chances of modifying your healing magic or even create your own using your own understanding. The time you spent studying and grueling through the books that could help you understand a person's body won't be wasted." Sona then began her temptation.
"..." Line went silent trying to process everything that she heard.
But Sona nailed the final nail in the coffin, "And not just that, we'll also introduce you to someone who knows so much about bodies that as long as someone isn't dead, they won't die even if they want to. He also the type a guy that would suddenly pull out unknown magic for his own convenience. What do you think?"
That, without a doubt, caught Line's interest. Because of all the doctors she knew, no one would dare claim that they can keep their patients alive even if he or she wanted to die, 'Why am I hesitating? Even if they're not telling the whole truth, just the way they use magic is already outside of everyone's common sense. This is my chance to finally improve like I always wanted...'
Line closed her eyes and took a deep breath several times. A minute later, she opened her eyes, and the trio can see that she already decided on what she wants to do, "Please... Teach me how to improve..."
Sona smiled and put out her right hand, "Understood... But how much you can improve will still depend on you."
Line looked at her hand for a moment before grabbing it with both of her hands, "Thank you very much. I'll do my best."
"Welcome to the crew. Let's work together from now on~."

Tales of Teleios
Born as a noble free-man, the only daughter of a lord, Arete of Syracuse was an ambitious young woman who would do anything to succeed her father's position. One day, her father was exposed of his secret movement attempted to overthrow the emperor... Tales of Teleios set in the ancient Greco-Roman. It is a very standard adventure, low fantasy, alternate historical story with common archetype and predictable storyline. It is a form of artistic expression. 🏳️🌈 LGBTQIA+ Content Tag 🙇 ESL Author 📖 A Very Brief Summary 📖 (Unavoidable Spoiler) This story is about Arete of Syracuse (the protagonist) who was on a journey to find a mysterious Teleios of Eretria. Travelling with her servant Matea, her maternal cousin Agave and a former hetaira named Pryne. Throughout their journey, they discovered the conspiracy behind the Emperor Nero's eugenic system. This story explores the topic of human advancement. Tracing the idea back to the Greco-Roman world, the idea of eugenicism started when humans attempted to achieve perfection through breeding enhancements. However, The Three Elders realised that they couldn't afford waiting on the natural process of evolution. Thus, they came out with the controversial idea of experimentation through the building up of monstrosities using different body parts of animals and attempting to achieve immortality through taking over the younger human bodies. Teleios means perfection, and the center of this story is about the journey of four very flawed characters: The protagonist, Arete was a skinny noble woman who was born premature and had amenorrhea. She was supposed to be drowned by the order of Emperor Claudius due to her imperfection. While Matea was born a perfect healthy person, but has had everything taken away from her. Agave who was born out of wedlock but was fortunate enough to be adopted into a noble family. And Pryne who was on her way to have a loving family but drifted instead throughout the world after making a decision that she deeply regretted and needed to overcome her sense of guilt along the way. The story will explore some of the most controversial topics which involved detestable ancient practices such as pedarastry, where as the Empress Sporus, being the victim of it, coping with her tragic experience through acceptance of the oppressor and her struggle for not being able to conceive. In summary, the topics were largely related to gender and sex. There will be violence and gore, as most of the fantasy works does. while the author here would like to inform the readers that this is not an erotica, nor it has any sentences that involve depiction of sexual activities. Therefore, this story is not for those who seek thrill on its sexual content. A dialogue of Empress Sporus: "The world itself abused us to a level unimaginable! Yet we have to learn to love the world! Simply to live! To make our life a little easier, a little happier. So what is wrong with that? Are you expecting me to go against the emperor when he is the one and only reason I became the empress?" Said Sporus.
