[Viscount Zacks Mansion]
With Sephiria keeping watch on Millia, Shun then drank his tea infront of Viscount Zack and told him the importance of the 4 powers of the world.
"As you may know there are many elements in the world... Metal, Poison, Lightning, Lava, and many more. However all of this stems out to only 4 original elements Fire, Water, Air, and Earth. With the mixture of water and air, lightning was born. With the mixture of fire and earth, lava is born, with the mixture of fire, water, and earth poison exist... all in all in the amidst of all the available elements in the world, these 4 is what we consider as basic elements"
"...."
"However even if we view it as basic elements, the world view it otherwise as the 4 pillars of the world, the 4 elements that makes up the world and became the pillar of the planets existence"
"So those 4 elements are such a big deal yeah? Then why is there no records? Why does that mages overlook such powers if it is string?" Asked by Viscount
"Oh it is recorded alright, in fact I'm pretty sure this was taught by the mages as the very basic and principle of magic. However the only reason why it is overlooked despite being such powerful power is because of how few it is recorded in the documents. Since the pillar of power are rarely seen by the world despite evidence popping up in history books, majority of the people regarded it as myths or folklore... after all for the people of this world, in order to believe, they will need to see it first... to see is to believe per se"
"Well i can't deny that" said by Vsicount Zack as he understood such statement. After all he was also such people himself, before he met Shun he just regarded his detailed information as mere fluke or exaggeration. The only reason why he believed on his strength now was because he saw it in person and his strength was proven in his achievements in the academy.
Of course hearing his words Shun simply nodded.
"But the only people who are in the know about these power are the higher rank nobility and the royalties from various kingdoms" said by Shun as he realized that the Duke family and Cedric's family seemed to know of this power when they visited the Kingdkm of Avalon in the west.
Since Viscount Zack didn't know about such thing but the Duke and the royal family knew about it, he can only conclude that only the upper echelons knew of such information.
"In fact I've seen one myself went I visited the kingdom of Avalon together with the Duke family"
"Wait! You saw it? It was real? What does it look like?" Asks by Viscount Zack
"It was overwhelming! I can't even describe it but when I am infront of such power, I felt so little... in fact I have a portion of its power right here"
After Shun said those words, he then stretched out his palm as he summoned the small Aquasphere in his palm alongside the Ventus Mark.
The moment these two power appeared, the atmosphere around the mansion suddenly grew heavy, as everyone who was not sensitive to mana felt like it is hard to breath in the air. Meanwhile for people who is sensitive to mana, they immediately felt overwhelmed as the two powers mana signature were off the charts and felt suffocating.
It was as if they were either drowning at the depths of the sea of infront of a wild storm that was trying to such out the air from them.
Thankfully Viscount Zack only has partial sensitivity to mana so even if he felt overwhelmed, he can still hold on. But for Shun, Millia, and Sephiria, they couldn't even move a single muscle infront of it.
But the moment Shun returned it back to the systems control, the pressure in the mansion suddenly vanished as everyone was released from the tension itself.
Unbeknownst to them because Shun released two powers without the system restrictions in order to showcase it to Viscount Zack, all the monsters near the Viscount territory were deeply scared as they flee the Viscounts territory.
After regaining his composure, Shun then said.
"That was the pure an uncontrolled power of the two pillar of the world"
"What? Uncontrolled? These level of power can be controlled? And you already collected 2 of them? How is this even possible?" Reacted by Viscount Zack
"Oh that's a long story, but yes it can be controlled. The only reason why those two powers seemed overwhelming is because the direction of their mana has nothing to guide them towards a certain direction, due to that in flooded the whole area with its pressure... but if you control it, you can even change the form of the power to your advantage"
"This is crazy... and your planning to collect your 3rd pillar of power?" Asked by Viscount Zack
"Thats right! You see while this portion of the original pillars of power may be overwhelming and powerful, they can also serve as compass for the other pillar of power... after all like magnet they attract each other and that's why we are here... I can feel that the 3rd pillar of power is somewhere near Ruric town which is inside your territory viscount Zack"
"I see... i understand now, but even though I know just how strong these 4 pillars of power now, I just want to know why you are collecting them?"
Hearing the Viscounts words, Shun then smiled as he leaned back on his chair.
"The thing is I needed them Viscount, there is something I must do and needed to accomplish with these 4 pillars of power... if you can help me atleast make sure that I can stay safe in your territory, I will make sure that no harm comes into your territory"
Hearing Shun's words, Viscount Zack felt like Shun was hiding some important details in their conversation. Nevertheless he didn't probably further since he knew that Shun has no bad intentions when collecting such power himself.
He was not that kind of a person. With that thought in mind, he then replied.
"Fine! While your here, I can make sure that no trouble comes your way"
