Today I had decided to hold classes with my entire family, this included those related not through blood or romantic relationships such as their servants and mine.

The Rin Sisters and the four Spirits were invited as well, as I see them as my family and close friends with some members of my family.

What we were going to do was pretty much teach other our skills. Magic spells, magic control, techniques, everything that we could learn from each other if possible.

I held some special classes where I would teach… or try to teach 'Overpowering Sun', one of my trump cards. A powerful Skill that is capable of summoning a large sphere of burning lava that can be molded if skills such as 'Fire Manipulation' are present in the user.

The ones I was going to teach such skill were those that had a great affinity with the Fire Attribute, mostly over everything else. Most of my family can use Fire Spells as they had eaten several fire monsters, but obtaining the skill through 'Devour' is different than having an innate affinity with it…

Though I got it without even having an affinity, I found what I did back then quite hard to replicate. I have been also suspecting that my blessing may include the effect of making the acquisition of skills as well as leveling them up way easier. But to prove that point I must try to teach a certain skill to someone.

The people present were Kaguya, Oga, Geraldine, Athos, and Kjata.

Just like me, everyone else had made groups, teaching each other. I had decided to bring my group to Morpheus's Dungeon, inside the Desert Biome, in a large and desolate area, where our destruction should not make anyone panic.

The artificial sun was quite mighty today, so the Fire Attribute was naturally strong in here.

"I'm quite honored to have been invited to learn one of master's skills," said Kjata with her small voice tone, she had the appearance of a cute girl in her middle teens, with red-orange skin, scarlet eyes, and long crimson hair, she was wearing her armor, which is her original body, molded into bikini armor.

"So we are back in here… the sun really hits the spot, it is so refreshing… I can feel the warmness spread through my body" said Kaguya, who was a Fire Attribute specialist, the strong Fire Attribute mana generated by the dungeon's artificial sun made her felt overflowing with power.

"That's right, I actually missed this place, I could just sit in here forever sunbathing… so good," said Oga, who was wearing barely any clothes, letting the scorching sunlight penetrate her dark red skin as if it were the most pleasuring of things, her muscles dripping sweat, giving her an erotic appearance.

"Nya, I wish I could be with Amiphossia-sama… But she is busy and I do not mind being with Amiphossia-sama mother" said Geraldine, her new physical body was made with the flesh, blood, bones, fur, and organs of a powerful Fire Attribute Feline Boss from the Forsaken Labyrinth, the Hellish Cat Kasha. Due to this, she had a natural great affinity with fire.

"Although I would prefer lady Amiphossia to teach me more Phantasmal Shamanism Magic, learning such a powerful Skill like the one you mentioned doesn't sound bad…" said Athos, the little dragon girl, who used to be a sword possessed by the soul copy of an old male dragon. Through experimentations and my evolution skills, she became a cute dragon girl who waved her thick and scaled tail around.

"Thanks for coming, this is not only to help you get stronger, but it will also help me experiment with a few things… while confirming others. There is a lot of doubts that I have about this world's System," I said.

"Sure thing, Kireina-sama! I live to serve you!" said Kaguya, excitedly as she waved her nine white-colored squirrel tails.

"The same thing, I don't have a problem helping my wife," said Oga.

"I don't mind helping my master's mother either," said Geraldine.

"I would do anything for Master," said Kjata.

"You have already experimented with me so much that I stopped caring, do as you please" sighed Athos, as she waved her tail around… she seemed excited although she didn't like to show it.

"Alright girls… now remembering how I got this… First of all, can all of you cast the 'Mana Zone' Spell?" I asked as I waved my hand, space suddenly disrupted as a flood of lava appeared below us. None of the girls was affected by this whatsoever, as we were all immune to fire and lava.

"If enough mana is infused, it can create a small 'pocket space' where another being can be trapped inside… but it only helps if the being trapped is weak enough to not be able to break the weak pocket space" I muttered, waving my hand again and completely shattering the space in less than a second, the lava remained in the floor though, slowly drying out.

"How I got Overpowering Sun was by using both 'Lava Zone' and 'Mana Zone', merging both spaces with Fire Attribute Magic," I said, moving the large pool of lava into a space made out of mana that appeared over my head, Mana Zone, which I haven't used in a while.

Flash!

Suddenly, the two merged, and as I willed it to mold itself as I liked, I transformed it into a spherical shape.

"Here it is! Overpowering Sun! Whenever you get the skill, you can immediately cast it, so there isn't any need to repeat this process anymore" I added.

"So that's how it is… But I don't have 'Lava Zone' neither 'Mana Zone'…" muttered Kaguya.

"I have 'Lava Zone'… but I never learned 'Mana Zone," said Kjata.

"I have none," said Oga, nonchalantly.

"I am a novice in Fire Attribute Magic… I've only learned strong offensive spells since now, so I don't have none of the two" muttered Geraldine.

"I do have 'Lava Zone'… but 'Mana Zone'? In my long life, I have never heard of such a spell before… what attribute is it?" asked Athos, waving her tail in interest.

"It is a No-Attribute Spell that I came out with in my early days when I had to desperately fight and survive as a butterfly… I was surprised that no one in this world had ever come out with it? How hard is it to mold your own mana? Perhaps they lack the imagination given to me from my previous life…" I muttered.

"Well, you're from a different world, so it's obvious that your ideas, imagination, and concepts are completely different than those who had been born in this world," said Athos, nodding in agreement.

"Nonetheless, you've surprised me once again. Mana Zone could prove to be an amazing skill for novice mages trying to mold their mana. And because it is a No-Attribute Spell, everyone can learn it" said Athos.

"Oh, I think I remember Master using it before when she was a butterfly and came to raid my former home! She trapped the entire colony with her Mana Zone, molding it as a barrier, and eradicated all the weaklings and useless ones! I was spared by her great benevolence, of course, ~ Master has a strong insight and can see the talent in others~" said Kaguya.

"Hoh? I would have liked to see you like a butterfly… it would have been cute" said Oga.

"Master has been always the cutest, even now," said Kjata.

"Nya… would I be able to learn those spells?" wondered Geraldine.

"Yes, let's get starting. Let us first teach everyone 'Mana Zone' and then 'Lava Zone' to those who don't have it" I said, as I expanded my mana into its purest form, without any attribute inside.

I glanced at the overpowering sun floating in the sky and absorbed it with my Mana Zone, it suddenly disappeared.

"Nya! H-How did you do that?!" shouted Geraldine.

"I see… Mana Zone has even more utility than I imagined… you can even 'absorb back' your unused spells and disintegrate them into pure mana again… Although, perhaps, this requires the spell to be of a high level… what is your No-Attribute Magic level, Kireina?" asked Athos.

"I never learned the No-Attribute magic skill. But 'Mana Zone' itself as a skill. Afterward, I fused many other skills until it created a 'Library Skill'… I have just recently begun to learn separate magic skills that contain several spells into one. Before that, I only had them separated as skills and not spells. Spells are part of a greater Magic Skill that stores them inside, but I was able to have each spell as a skill instead, each one level up independently. Well, now that I have the 'Library' skill, it could be said that I have managed to reach that point. It is like several attributes into a single magic skill, with mixed spells" I said, explaining the origins of my powers.

"I-I see… You are really unique, so you never learned magic properly before, but somehow you are a prodigy… Well, seeing how a few days ago you transformed me into this, I suppose that common sense does not apply anymore with you…" muttered Athos.

"Anyways, less chit chat and more learning… Now, everyone, please sit down and focus on your Mana… Most of you have your Mana stored in your soul or orbs, release it slowly and feel the flow of it as if they were rivers floating around your body" I muttered while doing what I was explaining.

Everyone sat down and began to imitate me, some had it easier than others. Oga was having the hardest time, as she was not much of a mage and more of a brawler.

"Hmm… t-this is quite hard… I am not really good at magic it seems. I am better at using it to enhance my physical attacks than using it to purely cast spells" muttered Oga.

"Don't worry. Let me give you a hand, Oga~" I said, as I extended a small slime tentacle from my body and connected it to Oga's body. By using my own Mana Manipulation skill into her own body, I managed to make her mana move to my will.

"Ah! It is obeying me better… T-This…"

I separated my slime from her body and then saw her once again trying, this time she did manage to make it flow like small rivers around her.

"I can do it now! And I learned Mana Control?!" she shouted.

"Now that everyone has their mana outside, clear it out of impurities. I can see that most of you have their mana imbued with the Fire Attribute, you need to take that out and leave it completely pure, without any attribute on it" I explained.

"I see… moving away from my primary attribute… it may result harder than I thought" muttered Kaguya.

"Hmm… Ah! I did it? That was not so hard, nya!" said Geraldine.

"It is hard for me…" said Kjata.

"I did as well… perhaps because I am not good at magic, to begin with, it is easy to take out my Fire Attribute from the mana?" asked Oga.

"That is most likely the case, Oga. Those who are accustomed to one attribute often have greater difficulty when cleaning their mana from it, because they had been too immersed into it and had used it for everything. Geraldine had just begun to learn Fire Attribute magic due to her new body and she was primarily an Ice Attribute Mage… in my case, I wield two other attributes, Earth and Phantom, and for you, you're even worst at magic, so you don't even feel the fire attribute mana as part of you that much. This is why we three have an easier time" said Athos, sharing the wisdom of an old dragon, unfitting to her young and adorable appearance, creating a feeling of adorableness.

"Exactly as the little dragon princess says. Kaguya and Kjata had been using fire attribute magic since I know them, they have been always incredibly good at it from the very beginning and had never stopped using it. Their Fire Attribute Mana had been deeply engraved into their souls." I added.

"L-Little dragon princess…?! Sigh…" sighed Athos.

"I see! So, because I suck at it, I am secretly good too! I get it, I get it!" said Oga while grinning and showing her sharp white fangs, she didn't get it at all.

"Nya! I see!" said Geraldine… she was just as clueless.

"So I am so good at it that it is very hard to separate the fire from my mana?" asked Kaguya.

"Well, this feels like praise but at the same time it isn't," said Kjata.

I decided to help them out as well, similar to Oga, I connected slime tentacles into their bodies through their shoulders and used Mana Manipulation and my own aura to slowly remove the excess Fire Attribute deeply engraved into them.

"That should do it… now try again," I said.

The two girls then released their mana gain, and it was transparent like water.

"Ah, we did it! Thank you so much, Master! I love you!" said Kaguya, kissing my slime tentacle.

"I-I did it as well! Even if I am a Fire Spirit, I am capable of releasing pure No-Attribute Mana! Thanks, Master!" said Kjata, playing around with the transparent mana rivers.

After a few practices, the girls finally learned 'Mana Zone'. Some who lacked the No-Attribute magic had to learn it first and then learn 'Mana Zone' as a spell.

Afterward, 'Lava Zone' was easy to learn for all of them, as it was an element they were familiar with.

The day went by very fast doing these classes, but in the end, the last of the girls, Oga, finally managed to learn 'Overpowering Sun'.

All of them began to launch powerful spheres of burning lava towards the empty desert, destroying it and creating gigantic pools of lava, the sand was being constantly burned and turned into glass, then broken and melted with the lava.

Interestingly enough, none of them learned it as a Skill, but as a Fire-Attribute Spell. And its power seemed rather different than my own, some had it of a different color, like Kaguya which was made out of the blue fire, Athos whose one was phantasmal and yellowish, Kjata which was bright red, Geraldine who was capable of creating it with cold icy fire, and Oga whose sun was smaller but was capable of exploding with greater force.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

"T-This is too addictive! This destruction! This rampage! Overpowering Sun, Overpowering Sun!!!" shouted Kaguya, releasing dozens of bluish suns, making them explode against the large and seemingly endless dunes.

"It seems that we have unleashed something deep within her," said Athos.

"Y-Yeah, but she is having so much fun. It's fine." I added.
