《Opening an orphanage in another world》Chapter 69: Magic class part 1
Advertisement
Since they're some new faces around, It will be better for them to at least learn about the basic of magic. Apparently (and obviously), the knowledge I received from the goddess and their understanding about magic is quite different. Can't blame them since unlike me, they're all researching about magic to be applied into their daily lives. I mean, for comparison sake, if by chance the god gives me scientific knowledge back on earth and I can suddenly make a rocket that can travel to Mars within an hour, those back on earth will have their jaw dropped to the floor.
"But Brother Ash, I'm not sure I can do that" (Plus, teaching a princess is without a doubt, a big job. Someone like me couldn't do that!) [Kara]
"Don't worry, I'll help you. You just have to tell them the basic and if by chance you make a mistake or forgot some part of it, I'll make sure to step in" [Ash]
"But..." [Kara]
"You can do it!" [Ash]
"Fine..." (I give up) [Kara]
Kara isn't that much of a shy girl I believe, it's just that how society have been treating her and her twin Mara being more extroverted causing people (and probably she herself) seeing her as introverted.
(Plus, she does show an interest in learning and teaching area, so this will be a good first step) [Ash]
Looks like she's mustering her courage to speak.
(You can do it!) [Diana]
That's what probably Diana's eyes telling Kara right now
"Good evening everyone, I'll be... I'll be teaching you guys about the basic of magic" [Kara]
"Yes" [Centaur boy]
"Please teach us" [Little girl]
"I'll do my best" [Kara]
She takes a deep breath and
"As you all know, magic is a phenomenon that happens when one channel their mana from within their body, or more specifically from inside their cells to outside the cells, and that's include our own body as well" [Kara]

"Cells?" [Clothing shop aunty]
"They're basically this really, really really tiny block that make us. Think of it like those bacteria that caused the endemic disease, only this time, their function is to make us" [Ash]
As I said that, I make an illusion magic showing the typical cell structure that we use to draw inside classroom. It's looks like they understood the explanation
"Thank you Brother Ash. Now, the mana that one contain is actually determined by the number of special organnelles in cells call Mitral. One who's born with high amount of mana will usually have high number of Mitral inside their cells, but not to worried, one can simply increase their number through training" [Kara]
"First I heard of Mitral" [Qis]
"Same here" [Diana]
"Umm..." [Kara]
"Don't worry, I can assure you that's correct" [Ash]
Well, information from Goddess Achalasia herself wouldn't be wrong
"And to top it all. Mitral will consist of a central neutral core surrounded by the seven element peripheral core which corresponds to the seven basic elements in this world, Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Light, Dark, and Mirage" [Kara]
As Kara said that, I'll illustrate the Mitral Organnelles through my illusion magic to make it more understandable
"The neutral central core of Mitral usually can be utilized by two means. One is by using it directly and thus producing the neutral mana magic which without exception, can be used by everyone. This neutral mana can either be used directly or can be channel through number of different form of magic, for example racial magic. For example, a Dracula can channel his or her neutral mana which is converted into racial magic and infused it into their bloodstream to enhance their vitality" [Kara]
"How about the human race?" [Lisa]
"Human race doesn't have any special racial magic, but they're able to utilize almost all the other other racial magic to small degree. The same vitality magic in Dracula for example can be used by human to look younger, or the beastly enhancement magic can be used by human as Berserker magic or it's higher variant, Amok" [Ash]

Since Kara can't answer that part confidently, I help her, she looks relief but I just ask her to continue the teaching session
"Now, the second use of neutral mana magic is to convert it into the seven elemental magic by channeling it into the peripherals core of the Mitral" [Kara]
Kara then proceeds to use wind magic on her right hand and light magic on her left hand. I don't know why she does that, maybe it's just to emphasize her point.
"This two is the elementals magic that I'm good at, but..." [Kara]
She then switched the magic in her hand into Earth magic, albeit only a tiny amount of dirt comes out
"According to Brother Ash, my earth magic affinity is low, but I'm still able to use it albeit not as good as Karon" [Kara]
"So that mean you have three affinities?" [Kat]
"No, what we call affinity is simply the number and strength of peripheral core inside the Mitral. Here's the catch, I could technically and theoretically use all seven type of elemental magic just like Brother Ash, since all of us have the seven peripheral core surrounding the Mitral Organnelles" [Kara]
"!" [Others]
Haha, I swear to god, this is exactly how those siblings of mine react when I told them for the first time.
"That mean that I can use all type of elemental magic as well?" [Neighbors kids]
"Technically yes, if you work HARD enough" [Kara]
"That sound discouraging" [Mile]
"It sure is" [Blanc]
"How about the thunder magic? Lava magic and other? Where do it come from?" [Neighbors kid]
"They're simply a combination of other basic elements" [Ash]
"Now, coming back to our topic, what we call affinity is simply the number and strength of our peripheral core. As for me, the number and strength of my peripheral core is mostly wind and light and thus I'm able to easily utilize those two magic easily as compared to other type of magic. While it's technically possible for me to use other elements, it's just way too hard that it would not be worth it as the number and strength of other cores are simply not enough to sustain that element" [Kara]
"So wait..." [Samurai Jacks]
"Does that mean..." [Syah]
"Ash have..." [Diana]
"Yup, I have equal number and strength of all seven elements of peripheral core surrounding my central neutral core" [Ash]
"And that allow you to use all type of magic" [Mimi]
"That's correct" [Ash]
And once again their jaw dropped. It is to be expected
"Now, how about we move on into the next topic. Basic of using magic, and I'm sure all of you are wandering the same thing, how to use the chantless magic!" [Kara]
"Ohhh!" [Ray]
"She's enjoying this" [Mara]
"She sure is" [Rean]

Shift (Ben 10+DCU Fanfiction)
Omnitrix+ DCU, what's not to like? The main character will not be Ben Tennyson, rather someone from our world who gains the Omnitrix Hello! This fanfiction Shift is what I wanted to do for an homage to what I thought were underrated pieces of media, Ben 10 and some DCU characters. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t add context to two of the major works that inspired Shift, Dial, and A Practical Guide to Evil. Dial is another ben 10 fanfiction, however that story takes place in the MCU, and with an adult that is already a grown-up at the beginning of the story. Dial, by my own accounts, is more superficially Like shift, even though the Omnitrix is a central device in both. My protagonist starts out around 18 years old, so is less serious and can build relationships with some of the junior justice league members, and then later on in the story meet the Justice League officially. The tone will be more light-hearted at the beginning of the story as teenagers are known to use sarcasm and jokes at each other’s expense. Furthermore, in Dial, the protagonist has a well-developed knowledge of the MCU which he uses to have knowledge on events and characters, that the character in Shift will not have. While the MC will have some knowledge of people's abilities, lesser-known characters and people's real identities will be not included as much, but the MC of Shift will have some knowledge. APGTE's influence is deeper than Dials'. The epigraphs at the beginning of every chapter are an example of that, a place for light-hearted jokes and worldbuilding that's not pure exposition, but I also want to incorporate narrative stories to Shift (heroes win more than lose, providence, etc) on a lighthearted scale. While the heroes of Shift will have to work to win against villains, the MC of Shift will be allowed limited precognition, through narratives tropes and archetypes as a trade-off of less knowledge of the DCU. For example, a villain a hero faces might monologue, but the MC will not instinctively know how to counter every villain they encounter. I also wanted to bring in more realism than usual superhero stories, ie: the MC cannot just walk and have a meeting with Batman or Superman, he would have to “work his way up” in terms of credibility and whatnot. The Aliens that show up in Shift I tried to make different than the ones in Dial, just to share the love for lesser-known characters. And to make it fairer for the villains of the DCU, the main character will not wantonly use if gain at all an Alien X or a ben 10 form of Kryptonians, just so the characters have to work a little bit for victory. I urge anyone reading to consider checking out both APGTE and Dial as they are both amazing works, and I hope you enjoy them. The beginning of how the MC enters the DCU will not be as important as him actually existing in that universe, so that is why a ton of time is not spent on that part of the story. Chapters will be around 2.5 thousand words and come out around every weekday.

Theodran [A Slice of Life, Progression Fantasy]
Release schedule: Thursday and Sunday at 12:00am CST. The world of Uneira is a desolate wasteland full of horrors and danger behind every rock, every bush, and every scraggly tree. Except for inside the Chalices, humanities frontiers and city states that have been protected by colossal white shimmering walls for generations. Only the most exceptional people brave the Unholy Wastes. But, inside of the Aetheline Chalice in its capital of Aethel, rank and status is determined by talent, skill, and archetype, but those that are extraordinary compete for prestige in the Pageship Games, where they’ll climb up the ranks to stardom or earn the right to carve a name for themselves in the Unholy Wastes after winning. *Magic is split up between Talents, Skills and Archetypes. It's my approach with a System like story without the system or other front-end applications of one. It's going to start as a bit of a slowburn coming of age, but that's really only for the first book. **There are three POV characters: Theodran, Modran, and Alanna.
